CHAPTER 365: CHAPTER 365: TERRIFYING COMPANIONS

Nolan was taken aback: "Oh? You already know?"

Xu Siyu smiled and said, "Yes, Wu Xing and Senior Huang Chao just came over and told me."

Upon hearing this, Nolan understood and asked, "You know now, what do you plan to do?"

Xu Siyu knew that his question about plans referred to acceptance or rejection. She pondered for a moment, a clearly visible sadness appeared on her face as she softly said, "Senior... actually... I don’t really want to compete with her."

A confused look appeared in Nolan’s blue eyes as he asked, "Why not go?"

Seeing the sad expression in Xu Siyu’s eyes, Nolan suddenly realized. He thought for a moment and said, "I see, are you afraid of contacting that junior? I heard she once plagiarized your work?"

Xu Siyu’s eyes were still filled with sadness, but she gathered her spirit and said, "Ji You and I, we used to be classmates and very good friends, but I didn’t know she would do such a thing. If I had known, I would have stopped her, even... even give her my..." She did not finish her sentence.

Nolan understood, he raised his hand, interrupting Xu Siyu, and said, "If you have such thoughts, that is wrong of you, Si Yu. In my view, knowledge can be learned and exchanged mutually, but it shouldn’t be handed over to someone else. What is your achievement should remain yours, you absolutely shouldn’t give it to someone else. This is not only disrespecting yourself but also disrespecting your friend."

Pausing briefly, Nolan continued, "Your friend, since she did this, it shows she did not respect your friendship or your achievements. The consequence of being expelled was caused by herself, you can’t blame others. So—Si Yu, you shouldn’t feel sad about this."

"Senior, I... I know everything you said is right, but I... occasionally think about it and still feel very sad," Xu Siyu said, bowing her head and covering her face with her hand.

Nolan said, "Feeling sad is a normal emotional release, but you shouldn’t let this emotion control you forever, so, beautiful girl, try to forget about this matter."

Xu Siyu nodded lightly, but still covered her face with her hand.

Nolan said, "Since she wants to challenge you, Si Yu, you should boldly accept it. I believe that in handling materials, you are unique in the entire school."

Xu Siyu finally raised her head, but her face still showed distress.

She was truly upset.

Senior Nolan came from a good family background and was a good person, which is why the more she interacted with him, the more she felt she couldn’t easily conquer him, and moreover, there were too many, too many excellent girls around him...

Moreover—

Senior Nolan actually suggested she accept Ji You’s challenge?

This was a bit unexpected for Xu Siyu, a hint of hesitation flashed across her face as she said, "Senior, I actually really want to accept, but—our current experiment is at a critical period, if I suddenly stop here..."

Nolan waved his hand, smiling and said, "I’ll give you half a day off, just go, leave the rest to Wu Xing and Huang Chao."

Xu Siyu had no choice but to nod, "Okay."

...

On this side, Ji You was earnestly studying the material knowledge obtained from Xie Lingzhi. These materials, recorded comprehensively in one document, meticulously categorized the origin, development, classification, etc., and were fully organized.

Ji You actually already knew these.

What made Ji You delighted was that the document organized and planned all the current methods of processing materials on the market, clearly marking their advantages and disadvantages. Moreover, it contained many organizers’ ideas and previously failed data.

Ji You and Xiao You, upon reading this, began to study tirelessly, and if not for the custom alarm prompting several times, she would not want to go to sleep immediately.

During the intense study, three days blinked by.

Saturday.

Ji You, dressed in a tank top, opened the door of the dormitory, and immediately encountered an excessively beautiful and bewitching face.

Today, Sheng Qingyan wasn’t wearing his school uniform but was dressed in a well-tailored white suit, with a pink tie around his neck. The pink tie matched the pink earring on his white earlobe, creating an unexpectedly harmonious look.

The key is—such a feminine outfit, when worn by Sheng Qingyan, didn’t look tacky or sissy at all. Instead, it made him look like a prince charming straight out of a fairy tale—

Dreamy!

For a moment, Ji You’s pupils shrank, thinking she had recognized the wrong person. Standing in front of her was clearly a graceful and handsome young man.

Then—

Sheng Qingyan spoke: "Hey, poor dead, why did you get up so late today? People have been waiting for you for minutes..."

Instant regret.

Misunderstanding.

Ji You realized it was all her misunderstanding.

This person in front of her is not some graceful and handsome young man; he is clearly the reigning king of Spicy Eye!

Ji You rolled her eyes and said, "Why are you standing in front of my door all in white? Are you trying to scare me to death?"

Upon hearing this, Sheng Qingyan immediately got upset and said, "What are you talking about? This outfit looks very nice on me..."

Ji You smirked, "Nice, my foot."

Sheng Qingyan was upset and said, "That’s heartless of you... I wore this outfit just to make you look good... to save face for you..."

Ji You was shocked, "Make me look good? Save face?"

Before Sheng Qingyan could reply, another person came walking over, also in a white suit and neat leather shoes.

—It was Chu Jiaojiao.

Not to mention, Chu Jiaojiao looked surprisingly good in this outfit, which held both feminine beauty and a masculine charm, blending two different temperaments harmoniously, making her look aggressively handsome.

But—

Shortly after, two more people showed up behind Chu Jiaojiao, also in white suits, Yue Qiguang and Yue Qiyuan. Yue Qiguang was pulling at his tie while muttering curse words, "Wearing this is already annoying enough, and Dad making me wear a tie, it pissed Dad off, I quit!"

Next to him, Yue Qiyuan said indifferently, "No one forced you, and no one asked you to follow. You can leave now."

Yue Qiguang: "..."

Yue Qiguang loudly said, "Kidding! It’s such a rare opportunity to laugh at fool number 4444, how could Dad let that pass? Absolutely not."

Yue Qiyuan said, "So, you can shut up now."

Yue Qiguang glared at him and snapped irritably, "Dad loves to talk, no one can control that."

Following the twin brothers, there was the silent Shen Changqing, who was also dressed in a neat white suit. Compared to Sheng Qingyan’s flamboyance, Chu Jiaojiao’s handsomeness, Yue Qiguang’s wildness, and Yue Qiyuan’s low-key luxury, the all-white Shen Changqing looked more subdued, gentle, and harmless...

Of course, everyone’s attire was very handsome and good-looking.

However—

Looking at this scene, Ji You’s mouth twitched: "What on earth are you guys trying to do?"
