Chapter 92 Two Silly Geese
Han Dong grabbed the math book she wanted to ask for help from next to her, stood up abruptly, and acted as if she were a gangster's daughter about to cause trouble.
He kicked open the door to the music room and walked out without looking back.
Tap, tap... tap.
However, the murderous footsteps gradually slowed and became heavier until finally, she abruptly stopped in her tracks.
Although Han Dong hadn't known the guy named Su Hao for very long, something still felt off.
Su Hao, that guy, although he's usually as quiet as a block of wood, is definitely not the kind of idiot who would break a promise for no reason.
Just then, without warning, a sentence he had said before suddenly popped into her mind.
—"Sometimes I need to seek inner peace."
His tone was as flat as a glass of water, but the way he looked at her fingertips on the piano keys revealed the morbid thirst of a drowning person for oxygen.
Upon closer reflection, he realized that his complexion had been sickly pale recently due to excessive mental exertion.
"Could it be... that he fell ill? Did he suddenly develop a serious illness and collapse on the road?"
Han Dong's heart clenched suddenly.
"Fine! You win! I'll personally go and catch you today, and see if you're dead or alive!"
She wanted to see where that bastard who dared to stand her up had died!
She strode angrily across the lawn and down the long, tree-lined path.
The surrounding architectural styles are changing dramatically at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This was Han Dong's first time stepping into the legendary territory of science students.
A cold wind blew by, and the campus was unusually quiet, even eerie.
Han Dong involuntarily held his breath and stopped in his tracks like a wary cat.
too frightening.
The art school is often filled with the wailing, high-pitched singing, the pointless chasing and laughing, and those idiots who think they're so cool sitting on benches playing guitar and flirting with girls...
They've all vanished here! Not even a trace remains!
"What the hell... How come there's not even a sound from a living person?"
All around stood a group of cold, desolate concrete buildings, full of industrial brutalism.
Even the sound of the wind passing through the cracks had a dull, lifeless quality to it.
The notice boards along the roadside were no longer filled with announcements about school heartthrob elections or arts performances; instead, they were filled with academic notices that were so rigidly worded they resembled obituaries, along with a bunch of obscure professional terms that would cause Han Dong's brain to be damaged at a glance.
Whether it's psychological or not, even the science students who occasionally pass by like ghosts have faces etched with a weariness of "seeing through the illusions of the world" and an indifference of "just let it all end."
Just as she was about to be driven away by the eerie atmosphere, she heard two boys talking furtively from a corner not far away.
"Hey, what the hell has that pervert Su Hao been up to lately?"
Upon hearing that familiar name, Han Dong's heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively perked up his ears.
Who knows what he's up to!
I heard that he asked the librarian to help him get some advanced theoretical books.
Holy crap, they just finished their midterms a few days ago! And they're already on another exam?!
Hearing Gu Chengyu's slightly trembling reply, Wang Di nodded repeatedly in agreement, his eyes filled with the fear of being dominated.
"I really kneel down to this man."
My cousin is pursuing his PhD in materials science at an Ivy League university. He's gone bald from all the late nights doing experiments; I doubt anyone has worked as hard as him.
Han Dong stood in the shadows, listening to their conversation.
The nameless anger and inexplicable worry in her chest intertwined, finally making her take a step forward and interrupt them.
"Um... excuse me!"
The two straight men with science backgrounds were chatting when they instinctively turned around at the same time.
Immediately afterwards, their pupils contracted sharply, their eyes widened, and they froze on the spot as if they had seen a ghost.
It's important to know that the male-to-female ratio in the gifted youth program is an appalling 8.5 to 1.5.
Even the remaining 1.5% of girls, under the heavy burden of academic studies, have long since evolved into androgynous beings just like them.
Everyone wore the same hoodies and loose sweatpants year after year, thick-rimmed glasses that looked like the bottom of a beer bottle, and heavy dark circles under their eyes that they could never hide.
But the Han Dong in front of me looks like he just stepped out of a fashion week runway.
The sunlight, like that of a top-notch lighting artist, danced on her shimmering chestnut hair.
The white shirt, ironed so perfectly that there wasn't a single wrinkle, accentuated her elegant and upright shoulder and neck lines.
What's most captivating are those clear, bright, and vibrant eyes.
She stood there so casually, yet it was as if she had forcibly torn a dazzling glimmer of gold through this deathly ashes!
These two straight-laced science students, who have spent years dealing with formulas, were speechless for the first time in their lives due to the overwhelming beauty they had witnessed since entering university!
Who knew that such simple clothing could look so stunning on the right person?!
Han Dong paid no attention to the turmoil in the minds of these two clueless geese. She slightly raised her chin and asked bluntly:
Do you know Su Hao?
"I know him! We're very familiar with each other!"
The two were stunned by that aura and nodded frantically, like pounding garlic.
Where is he now?
Despite being just a seemingly delicate young girl, Han Dong exuded a cool and imposing aura befitting a piano queen, pressing down on you like a mountain.
This contrasted sharply with their disheveled, beggar-like appearance.
"I guess... it's on the altar... uh, in the seat on the third floor of the library..."
"Thanks."
Before Wang Di could finish his stammering words, Han Dong had already turned around, leaving behind a resolute back view, and quickly left.
"Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!"
Wang Di only snapped out of his daze when Han Dong's figure disappeared.
He blinked rapidly in disbelief, trying to confirm whether he was hallucinating from doing too much calculus!
"That girl... came all the way here specifically to see Su Hao, right?!"
Gu Chengyu stood there like a wooden stake, his gaze blank.
"Even a blind man could see that, right? This is a case of someone risking everything for a woman..."
No, it's a drama of a beautiful woman angrily seeking out a scumbag boyfriend!
"I hereby solemnly declare that I retract my earlier statement of submitting to him!"
Wang Di clutched his chest in anguish, as if his heart had shattered into pieces.
"We old foxes have never even held a girl's hand!"
How could a little kid like him get such a goddess-level girl to come looking for him?!
Why? I refuse to accept this!
"Alright, shut up. The more you talk, the more I feel like I don't deserve to live. It's so damn heartbreaking!"
Gu Chengyu patted Wang Di's shoulder with a weary expression, his eyes glistening with tears.
"No way, is this fucking reasonable?!" Wang Di's eyes were red.
"His grades are so bad that he treats us like dogs, so why would a goddess-level girl like him take the initiative to come to him?"
Good heavens!
This world... is clearly sick!
"Damn it, stop talking!!"
The two of them stared blankly at the air, as if their souls had been drained away.
At this moment, a sense of defeat that was ten thousand times more desperate than when they were completely crushed by Su Hao's score in the midterm exam shattered their Dao hearts!
