Beep, beep, beep, beep. His QQ messages rang incessantly. For a moment, it was too much for his eyes to take in. On his screen, there were news notifications, local weather forecasts, replies from his childhood friends and netizens, as well as hundreds and thousands of messages from various QQ groups.
But he soon ignored them because he found that Yan Zheke had accepted his friend request.
He clicked on the conversation interface and hesitated. "How should I call her?"
It was impolite to call her "Yan Zheke" directly, but it was obviously too frivolous to call her "Zheke", "Young Ke", "Ke", and so on. When both parties were still at the stage of "just getting familiar with each other", it would probably give the other party goosebumps and a lot of drama. But calling her "Classmate Yan" or "Classmate Yan Zheke" was very strange and gave the feeling of being thousands of miles away.
"Old classmate?" No, the tone of a gangster would not be liked by the freshmen in college.
After thinking for a while, Lou Cheng finally decided not to call her but to use emojis instead.
After sending a grinning emoji, he typed quickly with his thumb and said,
"Sorry, I have something to do in the orientation today and left early. Did you tell me anything after that?"
After sending the message, Lou Cheng's heartbeat accelerated a little. Half of it was anticipation, half of it was worry. Time seemed to drag on. Suddenly, with a "beep", Yan Zheke's profile picture turned from dim to bright, and her status changed from invisible to online. Lou Cheng didn't notice that her profile picture was a comic cat, light gray, with big eyes.
"Fortunately, you have a warm-hearted classmate like me." Yan Zheke sent a cute little monster emoji. "I told you about the schedule of the martial arts class. Every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 12 a.m. The content of the three classes is the same. You only need to come once. It depends on your schedule. If you are free, it's best to attend all of them. Practice makes perfect ^ _ ^"
The Martial Arts Club was open to all the students in the university, from the first year to the fourth year, and from the medical school to the mechanical school. Their class schedules were definitely different, so there were three repetitive classes every week, and one of them was even on the weekend. This was to accommodate all the members as much as possible.
Seeing Yan Zheke's reply, Lou Cheng couldn't help but smile. The anxiety in his heart turned into joy and excitement.
He quickly typed on the keyboard and instinctively wanted to ask which class Yan Zheke would attend. But on second thought, he felt that their relationship was not good enough for such a straightforward question, which could easily cause embarrassment.
Because he valued her, he would repeatedly consider and consider every word and expression in his heart.
After a moment of consideration, Lou Cheng beat around the bush and said to himself,
"I have calculus and linear algebra on Thursday morning, so I can only attend on Tuesday or Saturday."
Yan Zheke replied with a smiling emoji, "I can participate in all three times."
"What a coincidence! You don't have classes on Tuesday and Thursday mornings? " Lou Cheng clenched his left fist and praised himself for his wits. Using his own situation to induce the other party to delve deeper into the same topic, thereby obtaining the information he wanted!
Yan Zheke replied with a blushing and scratching head embarrassed emoji, "The senior of the Martial Arts Club told me in advance, so I specially left Tuesday and Thursday mornings empty when I was choosing classes."
Songcheng University implemented a free course selection model. Every class had different teachers and different time slots. Students could choose their favorite teacher or the most suitable time slots according to their own arrangements and the teacher's comprehensive score. Of course, every class had a limit on the number of students. The most popular teachers and the best time slots were often in short supply. Students had to fight for them to have a chance of being chosen.
In addition, students could also choose classes that were not their major or grade as electives. Whether they could pass or not depended on themselves.
Lou Cheng's dormitory's local rich second generation, Qin Mo, concentrated all his classes on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
Lou Cheng was about to reply when Yan Zheke sent another message, "By the way, this semester there will be a new instructor. It is said that the principal is very dissatisfied with the results of the past few years. He wants to use Lin Que's entrance to revive the prestige of Songcheng University Martial Arts Club. We have entered the national finals before!"
"So awesome? I've never heard of it before. "Lou Cheng was surprised and a little confused.
"It happened many years ago. If you knew, I would be shocked!" Yan Zheke followed up with a dumbfounded emoji.
Lou Cheng immediately asked back, "Then how do you know?"
"It's a secret!" Yan Zheke sent a proud emoji with arms akimbo. Lou Cheng seemed to be able to imagine her delicate expression and the smile on his face grew wider.
"Oh, I can't stand secrets. I'm itching to know. Do you want me to be unable to sleep tonight?" Lou Cheng sent a pitiful emoji. At the same time, he was surprised that he could be so shameless and take advantage of the situation so quickly.
Maybe this is a man's instinct?
"Study more if you can't sleep!" Yan Zheke sent a laughing emoji.
"I've been addicted to studying for a long time. I'm getting thinner, thinner …" Lou Cheng thought for a while and changed the topic. "What's the new instructor like?"
"He's not here yet." Yan Zheke replied, "It's said that he's a very senior fighter. The principal used his personal connections to invite him. Anyway, he's not simple. You'll definitely gain something if you practice martial arts under him. Lou Cheng, you, who have no foundation, may even get a certificate of Amateur Third Pin before graduation."
Amateur Third Pin … Lou Cheng suddenly thought of the Jindan in his body, but then he turned his attention to Yan Zheke. "How about you? What's your expectation? "
"I, uh, don't expect to reach the professional level. I just want to practice some unique skills so that I can fend off the wolves in the future!" Yan Zheke sent a message, but Lou Cheng vaguely felt her hidden loneliness.
The three big illusions of life?
"Why? Where there's a will, there's a way. "Lou Cheng was puzzled.
"I'm not telling you." Yan Zheke replied briefly.
There was indeed a reason, but she obviously didn't want to talk about it. Lou Cheng's brain was working fast, analyzing every detail. He felt that he had never listened so seriously even when he was in the third year of high school.
He kept this in mind and changed the topic. "Okay, okay. By the way, I heard that the Martial Arts Club of No.1 Middle School is almost finished? We started to do it when we entered the school, and it was only finished after graduation. We missed it perfectly! "
"Really? I didn't pay attention to it. Hehe, in fact, even if it was finished when we were in school, it wouldn't be very useful. It's easy to get injured in martial arts competitions. Without high-level referees and supervisors, the No. 2 Hospital next door would definitely be full. How could we study? I can even imagine the expression of Director Li of the Teaching Department. "Yan Zheke replied.
After mentioning the common alma mater, she seemed to be more proactive in her words.
"Director Li of the Teaching Department? He's our math teacher. He's very interesting. By the way, he's also your math teacher, right? "Lou Cheng took the opportunity to start the topic.
Yan Zheke sent a nodding emoji. "Yeah, Old Li is very interesting. He brags for at least ten minutes in class, and every time he praises someone, it's super embarrassing."
"There was one time when I wanted to go home and watch the peak duel between the Dragon King and the Warrior Sage, so I planned to finish my homework in math class. I thought I did it secretly and Old Li wouldn't find out. But when the class was about to end, a classmate next to us spoke and was criticized by Old Li. He said, 'You guys, if you can get full marks in math like Yan Zheke, I won't say anything as long as you don't disturb the other students in class. I don't even care if you have kids. Look, Yan Zheke finished her language homework in class, and I didn't say anything, right?' I was so embarrassed and felt that my image as a good student was completely destroyed."
"Yes, yes, yes, Old Li is so funny. Once, he proudly wanted to teach us a question, but he couldn't solve it after half the class. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. After carefully checking for a long time, he sullenly said that he copied the wrong question …" Lou Cheng sent a laughing emoji. "Uh, the peak duel between the Dragon King and the Warrior Sage? Which side do you support? "
"Warrior Sage" was one of the top five individual titles in the country. Because it had been monopolized by Shangqing Sect's Qian Donglou in recent years, the Warrior Sage was always referred to him. He was also the other of the two legendary martial artists in the country, and together with Chen Qitao, he had won most of the titles in recent years.
As for Chen Qitao's "Dragon King", it was another title — "King". After defeating all the martial arts experts in the country and obtaining this title, one would not be called the King directly. That would be too cliche. Instead, it would be based on one's nickname and martial arts characteristics, such as Dragon King, Sword King, Lion King, Spear King, etc.
"Of course it's Dragon King!" Yan Zheke said firmly.
"Me too!" Lou Cheng replied happily. "Unfortunately, Longhu's foundation is still not as good as Shangqing Sect's. Overall, we're always at a disadvantage."
"Yeah, but I just like Dragon King!" Yan Zheke sent him an emoji with hearts in its eyes.
The two of them chatted animatedly, covering topics like gossip about the Dragon King, all kinds of gossip, which high school student was in love with whom, which night there was an attempted rape case, and how the boys would team up to send the girls who didn't live on campus home …
Fellow countrymen, classmates, and common interests kept the smile on Lou Cheng's face. He felt that everything tonight was so beautiful.
Bam!
Suddenly, he felt a pat on his shoulder. He turned his head in shock and saw Cai Zongming with his hands in his pockets. He said with a smile, "Not bad, Cheng. You've learned it all by yourself!"
"Learned what? What are you talking about? "Lou Cheng replied half-heartedly.
Cai Zongming clicked his tongue. "Look at yourself in the mirror. Look at the smile on your face. It's obvious that you're in love. Are you chatting with your goddess?"
"Yeah." Lou Cheng blushed and had to admit it.
Cai Zongming took out his phone and looked at the time. "Well, Cheng, that's enough. You have to stop the conversation before it gets boring. That way, you can leave the best impression on the girl and increase her expectation of chatting with you."
"No wonder you're a professional …" Lou Cheng complained. He picked up his phone and sent a smiley emoji reluctantly. "I still have homework to do. Let's talk later for the martial arts class tomorrow morning!"
Yan Zheke replied with a smiley emoji. "See you in martial arts class tomorrow."
After exiting the chat interface, Lou Cheng browsed other messages and replied to the important ones. Then he logged out of QQ and put away his phone. He looked at Cai Zongming. "Casanova, do you want to go to martial arts class tomorrow morning?"
The cheerful conversation came to an abrupt end. He felt really lost.
"Yes! Let them see the power of my hidden master! "Cai Zongming and Lou Cheng had the same class schedule, so they didn't hesitate.
"Humph. Be careful not to be beaten into a black bear." Lou Cheng complained. They went back to the dormitory, laughing and joking.
After everyone washed up and went to bed, Zhao Qiang, Qiu Zhigao, and Zhang Jingye were still talking about the get-together on Friday, imagining the appearance and character of the four girls in front of them. Lou Cheng took out his phone and replayed his conversation with Yan Zheke over and over again. His heart was filled with joy, and he was quiet and peaceful. From time to time, he would respond to the three young men with hormones and chat with them.
After the lights were off, the dormitory became quiet. Lou Cheng fell asleep unconsciously. He had a strange dream, one where excitement and fear coexisted.
