Chapter 144 Visiting the School
"Huh?...Is it that bad..."
Xu Xi exclaimed in surprise, and silently tightened her grip on her brother's hand.
"Of course, some classmates are doing quite well and are already living a life where they don't have to worry about food and drink."
Zhang Xinyu thought for a moment, then took out a photo from her phone and handed it to Xu Xi.
The man in the picture is leaning against a Maybach, with his wine glass slightly tilted.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the shoulders of his British-style suit, reflecting his confident, smiling face.
He glanced down at the expensive watch on his wrist, his expression cool and handsome.
"That looks amazing! What does this senior do for a living?"
Looking at the photo, Xu Xi's eyes lit up, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. She had already put herself into the role of the protagonist in the photo.
"It was a pyramid scheme. We just rescued them last month with the help of our former director. They're currently being held in the Yuncheng City No. 1 Detention Center, where they're provided with food and lodging."
"Cough cough cough... Huh?"
Xu Xi's expression changed slightly, and she was too shocked to speak.
Rumors are circulating... a pyramid scheme?
My beautiful illusion was shattered in an instant.
"So? Do you still think e-commerce offers good job prospects?"
Zhang Xinyu chuckled, her eyes narrowing into slits.
"Waaah... Is it too late for me to change my major?"
Xu Xi muttered bitterly, her whole demeanor slumping.
She wished she could travel back to the day she filled out her college application and shift her focus away from the e-commerce option.
"Too late! The e-commerce truck doors are welded shut; it'll just slam the gas pedal into the garbage dump!"
Zhang Xinyu covered her mouth and chuckled, amused by Xu Xi's reaction.
Such a simple-minded girl is a rare sight these days.
"Relax, I'm not trying to scare you. Actually, e-commerce studies cover a wide range of topics, from graphic design and operations to website building, video editing, and even financial theory. You can learn many courses from other majors in e-commerce, which can cultivate you into an all-round talent."
She said it earnestly.
"Senior, do you mean that after graduation, the knowledge learned in e-commerce can be used to find jobs in other related fields, right?"
"Bingo! You got it right, ten points added."
Xu Xi's vision went black, and she almost fell headfirst into her brother's arms.
Is this considered a consolation?
This is absolutely heartbreaking...
Even with an e-commerce background, I still have to compete with graduates from other majors for jobs.
Then why should I study e-commerce...?
"Hehe, since you're here, might as well make the best of it. E-commerce has a very high ceiling; what if you, junior, become a big shot like Jack Ma?"
Zhang Xinyu said with a smile.
While they were chatting, they had walked quite a distance along the main road and finally saw the first teaching building.
"This is the teaching building for our Business Administration Department, but it's still under renovation and they're replacing the equipment, so we can't go in yet."
Zhang Xinyu pointed to the impressive teaching building and said to the two of them.
Then, she led the two to the closed building entrance.
The words "[School of Business Administration]" are engraved in large, gilded characters in the most prominent place in the lobby on the first floor.
Looking through the glass door, the floor was piled with construction materials, and there were also many packaged computer cases in the lobby.
Several workers were carrying the machine cases upstairs, one box at a time.
"Xu Xi, remember the location of this building. Our school is very big, and every year some freshmen get lost on campus. In the first few days of the semester, the counselor receives calls from students asking for directions almost every day."
"It can't be that bad..."
Xu Xi raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.
It's still on campus, after all. Getting lost like that is just too much.
"Oh? Then come with me, I'll show you around the cafeteria."
Zhang Xinyu smiled gently and led them away from the business building, walking into the distance.
They drove left and right, leaving one teaching building after another behind.
At first, Xu Xi could barely remember the way back.
But as she passed more and more school buildings, stars began to appear in her eyes, her little head became completely muddled, and she lost her sense of direction.
"We're not even at the cafeteria yet, Xu Xi. Every day after class at noon, you have to walk this long way to get to the cafeteria for lunch."
Zhang Xinyu covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Waaah...the school is so big..."
Xu Xi gently tugged at her brother's sleeve, stood on tiptoe, and whispered in his ear.
"Brother, do you remember the way we came?"
"I don't remember."
Xu Nian scratched her head awkwardly.
I'm ashamed to admit that as a food delivery driver who travels through the city streets every day, I actually got lost in a school.
It's understandable, though, since almost every teaching building looks exactly the same. If you don't look closely, you can't tell the difference at all, just like being in a maze.
"Senior, how long did it take you to figure out the way around the school when you first enrolled?"
Zhang Xinyu held up one finger and shook it with a hint of pride.
"one day?"
Xu Xi covered her mouth in surprise, looking incredulous.
Zhang Xinyu shook her head.
"A month?"
"A year?"
"Ahem...actually, I never really realized it..."
Zhang Xinyu chuckled.
"Yuncheng University is almost the size of a town, but for most students, the places they need to go every day are just the teaching buildings, dormitories, and the cafeteria, so you only need to remember how to get to these three places~"
Upon hearing this, both of them were speechless.
"However, our school has also noticed this problem, so during the renovation this summer, we installed a road sign at regular intervals."
Zhang Xinyu stopped and pointed to a road sign not far away.
The three walked up to the road sign and smelled a faint odor of paint.
The road signs are very clear, showing your current location, the surrounding directions, and the surrounding buildings.
"Our school is huge! We've been walking for almost twenty minutes and we've only just walked through half of the campus."
Xu Xi carefully examined the map on the road sign and exclaimed in amazement.
The school gate is at the far north of the map, while their location is right in the center.
"That's not all. This is just a map of our school's North Second Campus. Our school has three more campuses of this size."
Zhang Xinyu leaned down and whispered a reminder into Xu Xi's ear.
Upon hearing this, Xu Xi was speechless with astonishment, her jaw almost hitting the ground.
"Hehe, don't be nervous. Each campus has its own canteen and dormitories. Since you are a student in our Business Administration Department, your dormitory will also be arranged in North Zone 2. Don't worry, you won't have to walk half an hour to class every morning."
