Your Studies
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
It was the weekend and Tang Beibei was studying and preparing for her exams when Fu Jin came to see her with a few books and asked her to spot some questions for him.
Students of medicine had too many things to memorize. The more serious teachers wished that the students would memorize the entire five- to six-hundred-page textbook. They would also often remind students that the illnesses couldn’t be diagnosed by spotting questions when they practiced medicine, so students must learn everything.
No knowledge should be neglected if they wanted to save lives.
While that made sense, it was impossible to test the students on everything with just a single exam paper. Therefore, all good students have their own methods of spotting questions.
Tang Beibei didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when she heard Fu Jin asked her to spot questions for him.
“I’ll cram whatever spot questions you give me. Whether I pass the exams or not, it’s up to fate.”
It was really surprising to see Fu Jin so Zen sometimes.
Tang Beibei opened his book to the table of contents page and shared her analysis with Fu Jin.
“Professor Li, when he goes on rounds at the hospital, tends to remind students to pay more attention to illnesses that have higher number of cases. So, there’s a high possibility he would set questions related to those illnesses…” Fu Jin listened quietly while thinking to himself that although Tang Beibei didn’t have high EQ, she had very high IQ. She had a unique perspective when she analyzed problems.
“Alright, I’ll take note of that.”
He then asked, “How do you know that these illnesses have higher number of cases?”
Tang Beibei chuckled and made a mysterious face.
“This is a secret. I’ve never told anyone before, but since Fu Jin is my captain, I’ll tell you.”
Fu Jin felt a deep sense of affection when he heard her give in, but when he met Jiang Jingchen’s gaze, he immediately restrained his emotions.
Tang Beibei continued, “I deduced this from medical journals, statistical reports published by the school as well as research topics our teachers are working on.”
“When a teacher sets question in a field that he is familiar with, he will bring up things that he’s proud of. There was a question in last year’s paper that tested us on the very knowledge that was published in a medical journal.”
Fu Jin raised his eyebrows. He was good at dancing, but he wasn’t so smart when it came to medicine.
“How did you think of these things?”
“Professor Chen made me read some of these journals and he gets new ones every week. Also, before Professor Chen set his questions, he mentioned a few words. I didn’t know if they were clues but I wrote them down.”
Jiang Jingchen, who was sitting next to Tang Beibei, watched as Fu Jin being utterly convinced by his wife’s talent. He smiled and kissed her on the lips.
“Beibei is really smart. Fu Jin, if you don’t know anything, you should ask my wife. With my Beibei coaching you, you’ll definitely do well!”
Fu Jin glared at Jiang Jingchen. There were some things he couldn’t say to him in front of Tang Beibei.
Since he was already here, Fu Jin didn’t stand on ceremony with Tang Beibei. He asked Tang Beibei for her spot questions for the other subjects, even her backup questions.
When it was time to study, Tang Beibei contacted Ruan Qi and asked her to join them. The three of them revised together for more than an hour, and Jiang Jingchen disturbed them more than ten times during that time. Fu Jin was really annoyed.
He knew that this petty man was unhappy that he was spending so much time with his wife.
Fu Jin said to Tang Beibei, “You should control your man. Isn’t he tired of being the uninvited guest?”
Tang Beibei blinked in confusion. “What’s wrong with my husband? He didn’t do anything wrong.”
Ruan Qi chuckled softly at the side. When she caught Tang Beibei’s gaze, she quickly restrained her expression and kept quiet.
Fu Jin gritted his teeth and said, “He intruded on us so many times since we started revision. Doesn’t he know that study time shouldn’t be disturbed?”
Tang Beibei looked at the door and tried to pacify Fu Jin. “My husband came in to check on me because he was worried about me. Fu Jin, don’t be angry.”
Fu Jin took a deep breath and packed his bag.
“I’ll do my revisions at home. I’ll ask you if I have any questions.”
At this moment, Fu Jin was worried about his exams and shared the distress of his peers.
Fu Jin wore his backpack and was about to leave when he glanced at Ruan Qi, who had been holding back her laughter.
He stopped walking and said, “Beibei is injured and can’t dance. Ruan Qi, you’re not injured and you should continue with training. How many days have you skipped training?”
Ruan Qi could no longer laugh and said with a bitter face, “I have to take care of people.”
“Being in a relationship shouldn’t affect your studies. You can practice here after you learn something new at the studio. You know your abilities compared to Beibei’s.”
“Okay.”
Ruan Qi slumped over Tang Beibei’s blanket and wanted to cry.
Revising for her exams was already such hard work, but she must still attend dance training?
Just kill her already!
Fu Jin walked out of Tang Beibei’s ward and saw Jiang Jingchen on the phone. He didn’t say anything but gave him the middle finger.
He despised Jiang Jingchen’s petty nature!
Jiang Jingchen laughed. He hung up the phone and turned his wrist. “Fu Jin, do you want to fight?”
“Um, I’m not interested. I have to prepare for my exams. People like you who haven’t gone to university won’t understand.” Fu Jin mocked.
Only Jiang Jingchen could make Fu Jin so angry that the usually gentle Fu Jin would say such nasty words.
Jiang Jingchen had been recuperating for years and had never gone to college. He had taught himself many things.
He replied lazily, “I didn’t go to university, but I married Beibei. She’s good academically and is a top student. She will teach our children in the future.”
Fu Jin was completely defeated and turned to leave.
Jiang Jingchen chuckled and said, “Did you know anything about some girl deliberately knocking into my wife after her last paper?”
Fu Jin stopped walking again. “I heard. What are you thinking now?”
“Give me that woman’s information. I’ll handle it.”
Fu Jin wanted to one-up Jiang Jingchen, so he said, “There’s no need to trouble a big boss like you for such a small matter.”
Jiang Jingchen said, “If you don’t want me to play dirty and cripple her, give me her information.”
Jiang Jingchen couldn’t even be bothered to investigate this because he believed that Fu Jin would protect Tang Beibei.
Jiang Jingchen never thought of himself as a good person. He would never waste the opportunity to use someone.
Fu Jin sighed. This man was too unpredictable. Goodness knew what he would do.
“I’ll give you her information when I’m home. Beibei is outstanding and is envied by others. It was just a mean girl trick. Just teach her a lesson, you don’t have to ruin her.”
Jiang Jingchen smiled and didn’t say anything. Instead, he dismissed Fu Jin with a wave.
His haughty attitude was like an emperor’s when dismissing his ministers.
Fu Jin laughed in frustration. Only a silly girl like Tang Beibei could tolerate Jiang Jingchen, a morbid, paranoid and ruthless liar.
On Monday, Tang Beibei went to school to continue her exams.
Jiang Jingchen arrived early when he went to pick her up from school. He put on a mask and walked into the campus. When he passed the basketball court, he saw Song Kai playing basketball wearing a short-sleeved shirt in winter.
Song Kai loved basketball. He used to be on the school team. When a famous basketball star passed away, he was sad for days.
It was exam week, and Song Kai was in school for his exams too. However, exams were simple to him and he would play basketball to relieve stress when he had time.
Song Kai was surprised for a few seconds when he saw Jiang Jingchen. With so many people around, he couldn’t go up to him, so he threw his basketball over to him.
He thought that if Jiang Jingchen caught his ball, they would have a chance to talk.
But unexpectedly, the man picked up Song Kai’s basketball and left.
“… Hey, that’s my ball!”
Jiang Jingchen glanced at him and didn’t stop running. He only raised the ball after he ran far away.
Song Kai saw that he deliberately ran far away before he threw the ball and felt that he was up to something.
Sure enough, after a while, he watched helplessly as his basketball hit a woman’s head instead of being passed back to him.
Song Kai was shocked speechless.
Was Jiang Jingchen trying to catch a woman’s attention using his basketball?
