Drui Feng's eyes widened in surprise, his mouth agape as if he could fit an egg inside.
"What? You guys are actually college classmates?"
His voice was filled with disbelief. "Then why didn’t you talk during the A Level exam? I thought it was our first time meeting! If you had mentioned it earlier, maybe we could have coordinated better."
Jiang Wenyu smiled slightly, placing his right hand gently on Drui Feng's shoulder and shaking his head slowly, his movements graceful and composed.
"Drui Feng, don’t you think whispering during an exam is inappropriate? It not only violates exam rules but also undermines our professional integrity."
Drui Feng scratched the back of his head, a look of embarrassment crossing his face.
"I guess you’re right."
A flicker of realization crossed his eyes, followed by a sheepish smile.
Yan Qing’s lips curled up slightly, a hint of helplessness in his smile. His gaze was clear and bright, as if he could see into people's hearts. "Exams should be taken seriously; we can’t let personal relationships compromise the rules. Pretending not to know him is also a way to protect ourselves."
Soon, the helicopter arrived at the landing pad.
Jiang Ming watched the three of them playfully interacting, feeling as though he was being left out. A wave of inexplicable disappointment washed over him, making him feel like an outsider.
He stepped forward and asked Yan Qing, "Did he give you something?"
At his words, all three turned to look at Jiang Ming, their expressions varied. Yan Qing’s eyes showed a hint of confusion, Drui Feng looked curious, while Jiang Wenyu appeared contemplative.
But none of them responded to Jiang Ming's question.
The loud buzzing of the helicopter drowned out their conversation, and naturally, they overlooked Jiang Ming's inquiry as they boarded the helicopter first.
Jiang Ming stood there, watching their retreating figures, the sense of disappointment in his heart growing stronger.
As they boarded the helicopter, Jiang Ming found himself in the front seat, hoping to sit next to Yan Qing. However, without hesitation, Yan Qing swapped places with Drui Feng in the back.
Jiang Ming's expression shifted slightly; he realized that Yan Qing was avoiding him. He awkwardly touched his nose, trying to ease his embarrassment.
Jiang Wenyu closed her eyes, smiling silently as she leaned back in her seat. A hint of a mysterious smile graced her face, making it difficult to discern her thoughts.
Drui Feng glanced between Jiang Ming and Yan Qing, feeling the tension. He awkwardly waved his hand before pulling out his phone to play a multiplayer game he had already downloaded, immersing himself in his own entertainment.
Soon, as dawn approached, they arrived over the parking lot of the military base in Zone Z.
"We're here."
Yan Qing's voice was clear and bright as he was the first to exit the helicopter, not bothering to look back as he headed toward his office.
His strides were firm and swift, as if something urgent awaited him.
Drui Feng yawned and stretched lazily, looking utterly exhausted.
"Ugh, I've been sitting for so long that I'm numb. I'm heading back to catch some sleep; I'll come back to work tomorrow."
Jiang Wenyu glanced at him and nodded, her eyes filled with a hint of anticipation.
"I hope you really do come back to work tomorrow."
Drui Feng widened his eyes at her, looking indignant.
"What do you mean by that? Do you not trust my character?"
Jiang Wenyu fell silent, turning away without answering. Her graceful figure slowly faded into the misty dawn.
Soon, the vast parking lot of the Z District Military Base was left with only Jiang Ming.
The sun, just risen at around six or seven in the morning, had not yet warmed the air, and a cool breeze swept past him, lifting the grass leaves from the ground. They danced lightly in a swirl before slowly settling back down.
Feeling utterly alone, Jiang Ming glanced around, watching three people turn away from him without a word and walk off in different directions. His heart was filled with loneliness and disappointment, as if he had been cast aside by the world.
Was he being isolated?
"I knew helping that brat Klick would lead to no good," Jiang Ming silently grumbled to himself before hastily chasing after Yan Qing, who was walking away.
"Hey, after you upload these documents, do you have any dishes in mind for dinner? I've recently learned a few new Cantonese recipes. Would you like to try them?"
There was a hint of expectation and eagerness in Jiang Ming's voice.
Yan Qing politely but distantly shook her head, her eyes revealing no emotion.
"No thanks, I'm a bit tired and want to go home for a nap."
As Yan Qing leaped past him, Jiang Ming felt a sudden pang in his heart, as if something precious had gently floated away.
He stood there, watching Yan Qing's retreating figure, filled with helplessness and disappointment.
He didn’t know what he could do to make Yan Qing stop avoiding him.
Jiang Ming closely followed behind Yan Qing, his eyes fixed on her as she methodically uploaded the image files step by step.
Yan Qing moved with practiced ease and focus; her slender fingers danced across the keyboard as if playing a beautiful melody. A wave of inexplicable admiration surged within Jiang Ming as he silently marveled at Yan Qing's professionalism and dedication.
After uploading the video materials, Yan Qing submitted his A-level exam files and everyone else's information in the office. His gaze was focused and determined, as if he were completing a sacred mission.
Jiang Ming sat quietly across from him, watching his busy figure, filled with anticipation and unease.
He didn't know what Yan Qing would say to him, nor did he understand where their relationship was headed.
Finally, Yan Qing shut down his computer and looked up at Jiang Ming. There was a hint of fatigue and confusion in his eyes, as if he were pondering something important.
Jiang Ming, feeling a bit lost, gently shook his phone and pointed to the app's ordering interface. "Let's go home together. I just ordered takeout; we can eat a bit before sleeping. It's not good for your health to skip meals all night. Is there anything you particularly like? I can add a few more dishes."
Yan Qing slightly furrowed his brows; he hadn't expected Jiang Ming to still be waiting for him.
It had already been three or four hours since he arrived here. After a long night of travel, he hadn’t gone back to rest and was sitting here without knowing why. Did he still want to find out more information?
With a hint of caution, Yan Qing casually selected a few dishes.
Hearing Yan Qing respond, Jiang Ming seemed delighted, breaking into a smile as he added those dishes to his order.
His eyes sparkled with anticipation and joy, like a child receiving a cherished gift.
Seeing his expression, a complex emotion surged within Yan Qing.
