Zhou Jiajia hated the man named Wang Zhitao in front of her. I was just talking to Yang Ming. What does it have to do with you? It’s a good thing that I have to take a Cisco Systems’ certification test in these next two days… Zhou Jiajia took the Cisco textbook on the table and turned to a random page. She looked for an experimental question that she couldn’t remember and pointed to the question as she said to Wang Zhitao, “This one. You can take a look at it and help me answer it.”

As Zhou Jiajia spoke, she tried to make her tone seemed more humble and innocent. Just like a good student waiting for the teacher to teach her.

“Let me have a look!” Wang Zhitao confidently extended his hand and took the textbook. As he was about to speak and his face immediately turn green! What is this? How come everything is in English?

Wang Zhitao looked at the top of the page. There were words like “hub” and “router.” He could understand the two words when they were standalone, but he didn’t know what it meant when the words were used together!

However, he had already blown his own trumpet. If he were to retreat now, wouldn’t he be losing too much face? Wang Zhitao had no choice but to force himself to bllsht through it, “This… that… In the default case, the hub switch… all ports… will connect to different routers’ wiring… that… this VLAN… that…”

Wang Zhitao was only translating according to the English words he knew. But when those words were joined together, he didn’t know what they meant! After translating for a long time, even he, himself, was confused. In the end, he could only say awkwardly, “This question… it involved too many hardware problems. I have to study it carefully first. How about this? I will copy it down and analyze it, and then I’ll explain it to you.”

“Sure.” Zhou Jiajia nodded right away.

Wang Zhitao breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took the book back to his desk. He then took out a notebook and copied the question. He thought that Zhou Jiajia would despise him, but he didn’t expect her to agree to his proposal! Never did he know that Zhou Jiajia was deliberately speaking to him perfunctorily!

However, this question was really long. With the experimental pictures, it was about three pages long with about ten thousand English words! However, in order to act cool in front of the beauty, Wang Zhitao had to use the trick of copying text from his elementary school and quickly wrote it.

When Zhou Jiajia saw Wang Zhitao’s eagerness to study the book, she couldn’t help but laugh quietly with a pst sound. When Yang Ming saw Zhou Jiajia tricking Wang Zhitao, he couldn’t help but grin and said, “I didn’t think that you would be that bad!”

“Who made him so annoying…” Although Zhou Jiajia felt that Yang Ming wasn’t complimenting her, at least he took the initiative to talk to her. Zhou Jiajia’s still felt the sweetness in her heart.

“I have a few questions. Can I ask you?” Zhou Jiajia began to continue her conversation with Yang Ming before.

” Err … regarding that Classmate Zhou Jiajia, the questions you asked are too difficult. I’m aware that I’m not up to that kind of standard, and neither do I have the habit of beating my face up to be a fat guy [1] in front of girls. So, let me be frank, I don’t know.” Yang Ming said directly. F*ck, those few subjects that you tested Wang Zhitao with, how many in class can actually understand it?

“No, I actually know how to do that question. I did that deliberately to send him away.” Zhou Jiajia said, “Actually, what I wanted to ask you is… erm …”

Zhou Jiajia thought about it for a moment. Since Yang Ming was so frank, it would be better to find a simple one. So, she picked up the Beginner Computer Operation Textbook and then found a question for Yang Ming, “This one…”

Yang Ming reluctantly glanced at the question that Zhou Jiajia pointed out: What is the format of an email address? There are four options for the line: xx@xx, xxaxx.com, www.xxx.com, and [email protected]!

Yang Ming felt dizzy looking at this question. He looked up and stared at Zhou Jiajia, and his expression was like a person watching an idiot.

“That… what happened…” Zhou Jiajia asked nervously.

“Are you an idiot or do you think I’m an idiot?” Yang Ming said helplessly, “You wanted to ask me this question?”

“Too difficult…?” Zhou Jiajia asked carefully. Because she remembered that Yang Ming didn’t come to class often. Maybe he didn’t even know this question?

Yang Ming broke into a cold sweat. He almost fell to the ground. This chick… Is there anyone else who was as humiliating as you? He could only say awkwardly, “Zhou Jiajia, I don’t know what are you trying to do. You know how to do this question. I don’t believe you don’t even know the format of an email address!”

“I’m just joking with you…” Zhou Jiajia was blushing a little. It seemed that I overdid it. If I knew that earlier, I would ask Yang Ming a similar question. But then, if Yang Ming didn’t know how to do it, wouldn’t it be awkward too?

“Okay, the joke is over. It’s not funny at all.” Yang Ming shook his head, “There’s nothing else, right? I’m going to sleep if there’s nothing else.”

“This… that… I…” Zhou Jiajia really had no other excuse anymore. As she was about to say there was nothing else, she was interrupted by Wang Xue, “Jiajia, didn’t you mention a class reunion event to Yang Ming…”

” Oh , yes!” Zhou Jiajia suddenly remembered the news she saw on ChinaRen [2], and said, “Yang Ming, there is still something else.”

“What?” Yang Ming wanted to sleep. After he heard Zhou Jiajia’s words he looked up again, frowning.

“I just saw a news on ChinaRen. At the end of December, our junior high school students will be holding a class reunion. Do you want to go?” Zhou Jiajia said.

“Class reunion? Junior high school classmates?” Yang Ming asked, turning his eyes.

“Yeah, they are… our classmates…” Zhou Jiajia whispered.

“Didn’t you know that I don’t have any good friends in junior high school?” Yang Ming rebutted instead.

“…that, I’m really sorry about what happened…” Zhou Jiajia sighed and said.

“The past is the past. I have forgotten about it.” Yang Ming said casually, “Let’s talk about the gathering later.”

” Oh .” Zhou Jiajia nodded. With no choice, she knew of Yang Ming’s past too. Yang Ming didn’t do well in junior high school and he skipped class on most days. Speaking of friends, he probably only had Su Ya. However… since Yang Ming hadn’t rejected it upfront, that proved that he might still go.

Yang Ming was actually just speaking to her half-heartedly, he only wanted to recharge his energy now. He still had a grand plan at night! The key to success or failure depended on tonight!

As for the junior high school gathering, it was a small matter. If there was nothing special going on, Yang Ming intended to go and see. Yang Ming remembered a boy named Sun Haoming who sat a row in front of him at the time. He treated me really well! When I went into despair, this kid had always advised me not to be discouraged, and to be responsible for my future!

As Yang Ming thought about it now, he still felt grateful to him! Although his words went in one ear and out the other, Yang Ming know that Sun Haoming actually cared for him!

I wonder what he was doing now? After attending senior high school, Yang Ming lost contact with him. Yang Ming remembered that afterward in school, the person whom he spoke the most to was him!

At that time, Sun Haoming was a good student. His grades were all in the top ten. Yang Ming was at about the same position before he went into despair. However ever since Yang Ming’s downfall, no one was willing to entertain Yang Ming. Only Sun Haoming tirelessly comforted me!

Thinking of all these past events, Yang Ming felt a little sentimental. He couldn’t help but follow up with another question, “Which day is the school gathering?”

” Ah ?” Zhou Jiajia felt excited. She said quickly, “December 26, the Friday night after Christmas!”

“Alright, got it. Remind me about it when the time is near again.” Yang Ming nodded and asked, “Also, do you know Sun Haoming?”

“Sun Haoming?” Zhou Jiajia shook her head and said, “I’m not sure. Would you like me to go back and ask for you?”

“Yes, sorry to trouble you then!” Yang Ming said politely. As people gradually matured and grew, their childhood friends had gradually disappeared from their lives…

“No worries.” Zhou Jiajia was very happy. This way, she had another reason to continue sitting beside Yang Ming. Although she could continue to sit here with Yang Ming by relying on Wang Xue’s relationship with Tian Donghua, it felt like a shameless act. But it was different now, she now had a perfectly legitimate reason to reply to Yang Ming.

After that, Yang Ming continued to lie on the table and thought about the plan at night.

Zhou Jiajia wasn’t in a hurry either. Hasty men don’t get to eat hot tofu. Towering buildings are built up from the ground. You can’t get to your goal by being hasty [3]! With a little progress each day, after a month, the relationship between the both of them would have a definite breakthrough!

Most importantly, even thinking of a sufficient reason to chat with Yang Ming already required a lot of effort for Zhou Jiajia! A talented girl had her own sufferings too! For the first time, Zhou Jiajia felt that there were more difficult things in this world than learning hacking techniques. That was romance…
