The Beautiful Time With You - Chapter 283

Chapter 283: Do Your Paper Well, Don’t Cheat (1)

Shi Yao happened to arrive at the entrance to the examination hall by then, so she replied with a [Let me take a look] before glancing into the classroom.

A tall male student dressed in a simple white shirt was standing at the podium, and he was busy organizing the examination papers.

Even though his head was lowered, preventing her from seeing his face clearly, Shi Yao still recognized who he was with a single look.

It can’t be such a coincidence, can it? My invigilator is actually Lin Jiage?

Shi Yao instinctively halted midway into the classroom.

It was only when the other examinees reminded her that she was blocking the way that Shi Yao finally regained her senses. She quickly apologized while backing to the side, giving way to those behind her.

And again, after those examinees entered the classroom, only then did she realize that this classroom was her examination hall as well. To give way, she just had to enter the room. There was no need for her to back off to the side…

Shi Yao inwardly criticized herself for her silliness as she shuffled back to the entrance of the examination hall and walked into the classroom.

At this moment, Lin Jiage was done organizing the papers, and perhaps he had sensed someone entering—he nonchalantly turned his gaze toward Shi Yao’s direction.

And sensing Lin Jiage’s gaze, Shi Yao’s footsteps subconsciously halted as well.

A few days ago, when the two of them traded messages, he told her that he was her friend. Did this mean that everything he said about not wanting anything to do with her was now annulled? So as friends, should she start greeting him now?

While Shi Yao was still deep in thought, a person suddenly came over and greeted her, “Hey, Little Junior. What a coincidence!”

Shi Yao instinctively turned her head to look—it was Lu Benlai. Today, he was dressed in a light pink T-shirt.

Ah… Well, admittedly, the T-shirt looked really nice, but do you have to be so fashionable?

Shi Yao muttered in her heart as her lips curled into a smile, and she greeted Lu Benlai, “Senior Lu, morning.”

Shortly after Shi Yao said those words, Lu Benlai had the conspicuous feeling that the aura emanating from Lin Jiage had turned a little abnormal.

Did I… jump the gun? Did I make a mistake greeting Little Junior first, so Little Junior ended up greeting me first instead?

Lu Benlai’s brain quickly whirred into action, and in the next moment, he clutched his stomach and exclaimed, “Ah! My stomach suddenly hurts! I need to use the toilet for a while. You two can continue chatting, I’ll be right back…”

After which, Lu Benlai slipped out of the classroom.

Completely oblivious to the abnormal situation happening around her, Shi Yao was thinking that since she’d already greeted Senior Lu, it was only natural for her to greet Lin Jiage as well. Thus, she turned her head around and smiled at Lin Jiage with her eyes. “Senior Lin, good morning.”

Senior Lin, good morning… Senior Lu, morning… He had one more word than Lu Benlai…

Lin Jiage’s mood immediately perked up, and he even made the rare exception of speaking two consecutive sentences, “Morning.”

And then: “What’s your examinee number?”

Shi Yao took out her examinee ID before replying, “Twenty-six.”

Lin Jiage pointed at the column by his right and said, “Your seat is on the fourth row.”

She was just about to see how the tables were arranged when Lin Jiage suddenly informed her…

Shi Yao replied with a smile, “Thank you, Senior Lin”, and after a slight moment of silence, she added, “I’ll be heading to my seat first then.”

Lin Jiage calmly nodded and replied with an “Mm”.

Shi Yao didn’t say anything anymore. She turned around, but before she could move her feet, Lin Jiage suddenly spoke up once more with a crisp tone, “Do your paper well. Don’t cheat.”
