Age of Legends

Chapter 151
Many people do not take the trend of exchanging QQ numbers that has emerged in schools seriously as the end of the semester approaches. It is already this time, the final exams are coming, and it is the time to test your level in the third year of high school. Why are you still thinking about social software and chatting every day? What will you do if you do poorly on the exams?
Tian Jiayi was very disdainful when he saw many people surrounding Shen Nuoyi. You are so idle. If you have that time, you might as well memorize some more English passages. Just keep on degenerating. The final year of high school will be the time when the truth will be revealed. Foolish people are forgetting themselves and being distracted by all kinds of things!

His deskmate Xu Rui sat down, and Tian Jiayi saw the additional information in the phone book in her hand at a glance.

At that time, there was a small notebook to record the contact information of each classmate, but it was usually a landline number or a pager number, and a few had mobile numbers. Now it is different. Many people add QQ numbers after the contact information. Xu Rui used the small notebook to supplement the information.

"Whose work did you copy?"

"There are so many people... Why, do you want to see?"

Tian Jiayi nodded reluctantly.

"Then take a look." Xu Rui handed her the address book.

Tian Jiayi picked up the small notebook, pretended to browse it casually, and saw Zhang Chen's QQ number at a glance.

"Whose name do you want to remember? Just copy it yourself." Xu Rui's voice came from the side.

“No need for that. I’ll give it back to you.” Tian Jiayi couldn’t lose her image as an excellent student who didn’t want to join in the fun, but it didn’t matter. She had already memorized Zhang Chen’s QQ number.

Tsk, a mere eight-digit number was so easy for a top student like her to remember. She didn't even need to write it down on paper, she had full confidence in her memory.

It also avoids misunderstandings caused by others. She doesn't like Zhang Chen. How should I put it? Maybe she has a little bit of adolescent affection. After all, Zhang Chen seems to have jumped to the forefront this semester and is still quite eye-catching.

It is for this reason that people are always striving to improve themselves. Even as classmates, when adding others on QQ, they want to add the outstanding students in the class.

Moreover, Tian Jiayi has some evil taste. He thinks that when he adds Zhang Chen, he will let him guess who he is. Haha... It's also interesting. No wonder others say that you never know whether the person you are chatting with is a man or a woman, or just a dog.

Oh, that’s not right. It seems like I even scolded myself. It doesn’t matter… Don’t blame me, don’t blame me. Ugh. Ugh.

Tian Jiayi was memorizing Zhang Chen's QQ number with his excellent memory, and Zheng Xue found a break in get out of class to throw the address book to Zhang Chen and asked him to write his own QQ number. "I remember your previous QQ number was not this, what's going on?"

Zhang Chen thought to himself that this was his own problem. He had an account before his rebirth, but he couldn't remember the password after his rebirth. Not to mention the password, he couldn't even remember the account. They were all registered early on. He and Wang Shuowei, who liked to play games in Internet cafes, how could they not have had QQ accounts in the earliest days? But he couldn't remember the password, so it didn't matter. He registered a few more and used one as the main QQ to contact his classmates.

Zheng Xue compared this with the previous address book and found that they did not match, so she asked him to rewrite it.

Zhang Chen filled it out.

Zheng Xue looked at him the whole time with a complicated expression.

Of course, she learned from her mother that Zhang Chen's family bought a shop and sold it for 700,000 yuan, so now Zhang Chen's family has made a fortune. What is the concept of 700,000 yuan in this era? You can easily pick a good house in Rongcheng.

I remember that the best villas only cost a few million, but now they seem to be astronomical. Of course, they can't be compared with villas, but if you look at the commercial housing in Rongcheng, 700,000 can buy the best house.

But she certainly wouldn't ask him, and she wouldn't publicize it in school. Although many students do compare their family backgrounds these days, Zheng Xue has a different view on this. When Zhang Chen's family was poor, they didn't look down on him even though they grew up in the same courtyard. So, if his family made a lot of money, what's the big deal? You can still ride on my head? Are you rebelling?

On the contrary, Zhang Chen's family suddenly became wealthy, but he didn't change at all, which surprised Zheng Xue.

It doesn't mean that Zhang Chen will become arrogant and pretentious, but at least he can show off a little, or if he is wealthy enough, he can treat his good friends to a meal or something like that.

None of them, Zhang Chen was calm and composed, just like a turtle, doing what he was supposed to do, without any awareness that his family had a large sum of money. This was what Zheng Xue found abnormal.

But then again, maybe people grow up, and she inherently thought that based on the Zhang Chen she knew before, he would not be so calm and would not reveal anything to others.

But she had never thought that Zhang Chen would be able to unexpectedly rise to the 600 mark this semester!

So maybe young people mature in an instant?

The speeding summer of our romantic youth, is gone forever?

Zhang Chen filled in his current QQ, crossed out the old one, and flipped through the phone book.

Shen Nuoyi naturally also had an entry in Zheng Xue's address book, but in the QQ column, Shen Nuoyi actually had two QQ numbers? The latter one was the one Zhang Chen asked her to register, written with a ballpoint pen, but the former one was written in blue-black ink. Judging from the handwriting, they were not written at the same time. The former one was a long time ago, and it was a seven-digit QQ number from an earlier period, most likely last year.

When she called Shen Nuoyi to ask her to register, she didn't tell him that she had a QQ number. Could it be that she had forgotten her password like herself?
This is normal. During that period, real-name registration was not required. Many people were so desperate that they registered and lost their accounts on the same day. One person had many accounts and sometimes couldn't remember which one was which.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't flip forward! Whose contact information do you want to see? Many of them are secrets!" Zheng Xue quickly asked for the phone book back.

……

The QQ fever at Yude High School naturally spread to Class 7. Zhuang Yanyue was a little dazed that day. Since the cosplay competition, she and Zhang Chen seemed to have a closer relationship, but also a little distant. In that duel, she admitted that she was the one who came back empty-handed.

Because she originally wanted to wear the cosplay Usagi Tsukino costume to tease Zhang Chen, but who knew that Zhang Chen would look at her legs with determination, and in the end she backed off first.

Really, I didn't expect Zhang Chen to be so lewd! What are you thinking? I'm a virgin, and I can't scare you with that. If I really show you my legs, will I be alive?
But that was why she declared defeat. But what if... she had shown it to him... at that time?

Is it possible to switch the offensive and defensive positions with him now?
Anyway, Zhuang Yanyue has always been brooding over that defeat, and she has not taken the initiative to look for Zhang Chen during this period. On the one hand, her performance in the cos competition was still good. Although she did not overwhelm Zhang Chen, she is not a fool. She can see that Zhang Chen's eyes lit up at her appearance and outfit at that time.

But she knew Zhang Chen, a man as steady as a rock. Even if she might have impressed him, he would never admit it. And she couldn't push him too hard. The silence during this period of time gave both sides enough room for imagination.

Just like the war book her father read recently, there is a sentence in it: "Strategic detours are necessary for tactical penetrations!" Until now, she still doesn't have Zhang Chen's mobile phone number and QQ number.

Well, it's time to break the silence.

……

"Zhang Chen, let's eat the sausage fried rice at that restaurant after school this afternoon, and then go to the Speed Internet Cafe to surf the Internet. Isn't Brother Zhao going to open an Internet cafe? I just might go to the benchmark Internet cafe to learn, and as a shareholder, I can also give suggestions." During the break, Wang Shuowei discussed with Zhang Chen in the corridor.

During the preparation process for Zhao Tao's Internet cafe, he had been asking for their opinions. During this period, Hong Yao and Bu Ruijie often waited outside Yude to treat them to dinner.

Zhang Chen knew that these two people remembered their kindness, and sometimes they would come to patrol to see if anyone would come to cause trouble for Zhang Chen.

After all, Bu Ruijie sometimes felt that he spoke too quickly and spread the rumor that Boss Xiong's death was related to Zhang Chen. After that, Bu Ruijie was severely scolded by Zhao Tao. It was said that it was the first time that the brothers saw Zhao Tao scold his own brothers so impolitely. But Bu Ruijie also admitted his mistake. After that, he made up for it by often appearing outside Yude, treating them to a meal, or strolling around to kill a dog. He was probably afraid that some of Boss Xiong's remnants had not been caught, and if they followed the clues and came to find Zhang Chen, he would fight to the death.

Fortunately, all evil has been eradicated. In fact, Boss Xiong's forces are also a group of rabble, but they are ruled by him violently. Once he is castrated, who will really stand up for him in the spotlight?
"Well, we caught you two playing games again!" Zheng Xue and Shen Nuoyi came over from the corridor. They had just come back from the bathroom together.

"Hi, I'm not playing games. No, I'm just going to play for a while. I've also met some people's QQ numbers today. I'll go add them." Wang Shuowei said. With the popularity of QQ, there are fewer people playing games in Internet cafes now. During this period, most Internet cafes are still equipped with speakers. Basically, few people wear headphones, and many sounds are played outward. It all depends on personal quality. Of course, if you play too loudly, naturally someone next to you will turn it down for you. Everyone is used to it and there is no conflict because of this. They are all Internet citizens.

So recently, Internet cafes are filled with a series of QQ sounds like beeping.

Wang Shuowei just laughed it off and said to Zheng Xue.

Wang Shuowei has expressed his determination to study hard since the zombie incident, and he has indeed been much more serious recently. Following Zhang Chen's guidance, he studies the knowledge points he has missed every day. Zhang Chen also knows that he doesn't really want to play, but it doesn't matter. If he really wants to study, he can still spend a little time after dinner. He still has evening self-study.

Zhang Chen looked at Shen Nuo and said, "Do you want to join us? Going online is also a way to relax."

Although Shen Nuoyi and I texted and chatted on QQ at night, Shen Nuoyi seemed to be avoiding me recently. When we were face to face, she couldn't resist my gaze and would look away. Sometimes she didn't even dare to look him in the eye, and would only look at him after he passed by or turned his back.

Zhang Chen also roughly knew what was going on.

In the final analysis, it was still the thoughts of an adolescent girl, because it was likely that he was too close. He and Shen Nuoyi were not actually in a relationship, but Zhang Chen sometimes couldn't keep his mind steady. Although it was open, they were both high school students now, and it was too extravagant and inappropriate to say that they liked each other, but to talk about love.

Therefore, Zhang Chen, thinking back to the regrets and missed opportunities in his previous life, wanted to be nice to Shen Nuo unilaterally.

But it may actually be a burden to her.

Because she actually has no way to give the same return.

It was like Zhang Chen could run five kilometers to the Communication College to buy sand-washing bags from the bun shop and have them delivered to her in the morning.

To be frank, after eating it a few times, Shen Nuoyi fell in love with the taste. She also tried to look for it and discovered that there was probably only that one authentic washed sand bun restaurant in the whole Rongcheng. She obviously had no way of finding this rare thing, so she often brought it to Zhang Chen.

So from then on she told Zhang Chen not to bring her buns, because her mother would cook in the morning and would be angry if she didn't eat.

If you find that you cannot give back, Shen Nuoyi will not be able to accept Zhang Chen's unilateral giving with peace of mind, and she doesn't know what to do. After all, they are not even lovers, and they have agreed that at this stage they just need to like each other.

The things Zhang Chen gave were all very rare, so rare that she couldn't give the same gifts at this stage.

So she would subconsciously escape.

"We won't go... The exam is coming up soon, so do your best." Faced with Zheng Xue's expectations, Shen Nuoyi still responded by shaking his head.

Zhang Chen understood what she meant and nodded, "Got it. Wang Shuowei and I will go today. We will study hard in the future and prepare for the final exam."

"Damn, Zhang Chen, she's not your mother, why should you be so obedient!" Wang Shuowei taunted him suddenly and fired at him.

Zheng Xue, who originally thought that Zhang Chen was a little too submissive, immediately became unhappy after hearing what Wang Shuowei said, and immediately fought back: "Isn't that right? I'm doing this for your own good, but you don't appreciate it! Look at how much more mature Zhang Chen is! Can't he be a little more obedient in front of your mom? Don't make us worry, you bastard!"

Shen Nuo smiled at Zhang Chen, then stretched out his little finger and hooked it, "Really? It's a pinky promise and you can't change it."

Zhang Chen looked at her cute face that showed both anger and joy, and reached out his hand to hook his little finger with hers.

"Damn it, Zhang Chen, don't be fooled. This is taking advantage of you!" Wang Shuowei started cursing immediately.

Zheng Xue also looked at Zhang Chen with a triumphant smile. If Zhang Chen and Shen Nuoyi made a promise, wouldn't that mean he admitted that he was a junior? Haha, Shen Nuoyi was smart! He became the elder of Zhang Chen and Wang Shuowei without making a sound!

Zhang Chen and Shen Nuo intertwined their tender little fingers, then pulled away. Looking at the frustrated Wang Shuowei and the smug Zheng Xue, I thought, don't I know this?

But when you two look at each other face to face, who is the clown?
Shen Nuoyi withdrew his hand as if he had taken advantage of something, and he could still feel Zhang Chen's flexible and strong fingers.

In this hot summer with a slight breeze, she felt a little light-hearted.

Surprisingly, he just pulled his little finger like that...
