As Qiu Xi emerged from Rong Hua Cheng's place, it was already late.
Glancing at the time, she decided to take care of her own hunger first.
10 PM -
It seemed the busier the teacher, the more they liked sending notices to students late at night.
Then, they'd review student papers in the dead of night or early morning, and send messages directly.
Just as Qiu Xi and Nan Hua were both working on their papers, Qiu Xi suddenly received a notification from Teacher Qi.
It was a forwarded notice.
Qiu Xi clicked to take a look, and her head immediately went blank.
Looking at this notice...
Postgraduates?
Preparing for the school anniversary program auditions?
And they absolutely had to submit something?
...
Attached below were many explanations regarding the main theme of the program.
Qiu Xi, who was already feeling dizzy from staring at a computer screen full of words, now wished she could look at more letters...
At this moment, their group chat also became "lively."
Luo An: Does this notice even make sense?
Luo An: Senior brother, senior sister, we're all getting old. Does this still suit us?
Luo An: ...
Mo Yaya: ...
Mo Yaya: Just saw it, restarting now...
Wei Ziqin: ...
Wei Ziqin: This trick again?
Qiu Xi read through the messages, feeling inexplicably confused.
Qiu Xi: ...
Qiu Xi: Senior brother, please explain!
Luo An: Senior brother~
Mo Yaya: ... Junior sister also wants to know! (Frustrated!)
She was so buried in papers every day that she didn't want to deal with anything else.
Otherwise, if this continued, she'd have to beg Old Qi to go easy on her...
Thinking of Senior Brother Wei's miserable state last year made her shiver!
So scared she didn't dare to think about it, Mo Yaya turned back to read the chat messages.
At this time, Qiu Xi and Luo An also understood after Wei Ziqin's explanation.
Undergraduates were like their own children. For some school-specific activities, like occasional dances or major traditional festival events, the school's century-old cultural heritage had its own established methods, so they weren't needed.
But when it came to major events, like this 120th-anniversary celebration, it was too significant, happening only once in a lifetime. So, under the guise of needing everyone's blessings, they were to submit proposals, and the best would be selected!
Therefore, everyone had to participate.
It wasn't just students; even teachers might not be spared.
When the message reached teachers like Old Qi, they naturally wanted to resolve the issue quickly, so this notice was issued.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"But! Is this too sudden to give it to us now?"
Although it had only been a short while since the semester started, they were overwhelmed.
Luo An was already too busy with his studies to even have time for this.
If it were something he liked, it would be another matter, but this task wasn't particularly appealing.
Being praised for talent didn't excite him as much as advancing his studies.
Wei Ziqin: "..."
"Don't you all think Old Qi just said this without any intention?"
"Don't you think so?" The three looked at Senior Brother Wei's words, confused.
"..." Wei Ziqin, on the other end of the phone, shook his head.
His fellow disciples, it seemed, didn't understand their advisor well enough.
"Teacher Qi's message was clearly discussed with teachers like Teacher Shang."
"You can ask the students under other teachers; you might see similar notices."
"!!!"
"Senior brother, you're a genius!"
This was Luo An, who had already finished asking around.
Qiu Xi and Mo Yaya had already seen identical replies.
It really was...
"Senior brother, so according to you, we can just do whatever we want?"
Wei Ziqin: "..."
"It's not my intention!"
"It's the meaning you yourselves have derived!"
Right!
It was all something they had figured out themselves.
The three: "..."
"Yes!"
"We discussed it ourselves."
"Mmm~" That's more like it!
"Then, what response should we give to Old Qi?"
Luo An, who probably understood the implication, now just wanted to end this unpleasant topic.
As the one holding them back, he had to strive to catch up!
"Hehehe~"
"Junior disciple Luo An~"
"I remember that... the advisor mentioned it to us..."
"We have a little prince among our fellow disciples who plays the violin~"
Luo An: "!!!"
"No! You guys..." How did you know?
"It wasn't me!"
"I don't know anything!"
"Didn't Qiu Xi also know how to dance? I remember at the last mixer..." Sending a friend to their doom to save oneself!
Qiu Xi! wap.kanshuwu.net
I can only apologize!
Next time!
Next time it will definitely be my turn!
Luo An, who thought he had successfully shifted the topic, was stunned by the message Qiu Xi sent the next second!
What was all this!
Was even heaven displeased with him?
Qiu Xi: "Well, I might not be able to manage it..."
Qiu Xi: Screenshot.
It was a message from Teacher Rong to her. Qiu Xi posted it as her shield.
Wei Ziqin: Cough, cough, cough~
Mo Yaya: ...
Mo Yaya: Well, Junior disciple Luo An~ I think you are the only one suited for this!
Great responsibilities are laid upon a person!
You are destined to do great things, so this little difficulty is nothing!
Wei Ziqin: Young man!
Bravely go forth!
Luo An: ...
Don't you have hearts?!!!
"..."
They did have hearts, but at this moment, they were too full, unable to hold anything else. They could temporarily set aside some things...
The first "work discussion meeting" of the group ended in such a pleasant manner.
Luo An finally agreed to the requests of the others wholeheartedly.
However, he did recover some compensation for his mental losses.
The three agreed, and because of his sacrifice, they decided to compensate him generously in terms of food.
No matter how he performed, a big meal was guaranteed.
So, the very next morning after the result was finalized, Luo An sent a message to his advisor.
He also grumbled and complained a lot in his message...
However, Qi Xizhi, surprised by the student's speed, was in a joyous mood.
He didn't have time to think about all that.
In a flash, he sent out a message.
"My student is truly considerate~"
Shang Mingjie: "..."
Looking at the messages in his own chat window, Shang Mingjie suddenly felt less conflicted.
"My student is also quite considerate, and even recommended himself!"
Let it be like this then...
Looking at the messages in his chat window, Shang Mingjie shook his head.
He had already reminded them of everything that needed to be reminded.
