Chapter 383: Powerful Rejection

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Just like what Zheng Lingling said, after Qiao Nan rejected the second year student that day, a third-year student came looking for Qiao Nan a few days later, asking her to ‘study together’ with him. “Qiao Nan, I am in my third year now. I know more than you. If you have any problems in your studies, we can discuss and find a solution together. It may not be good to work on it alone.”

The third-year student was smart. He knew that Qiao Nan valued ​​learning, so he tried to appeal to her through learning.

In the past, Qiao Nan did not care for these things. Hence, there were a lot of things that she had ignored.

Ever since Tang Mengran’s reminder last time, Qiao Nan had become much more sensitive.

Qiao Nan noticed that when the third year student turned up at their cla.s.s, many of the people in the cla.s.s had their eyes on them. Many students were particularly crowding around the doorway of their cla.s.sroom as if they were in for a good show.

“You are in the third year?” Qiao Nan tapped her pen on the desk.

The third-year student flashed a confident smile, showing his white teeth. “That’s right. Like you, I am very interested and confident in my studies. My results have always been good and I have always ranked in the first ten in the level. If we study together, we can have a lot of discussions about the problems that we encounter in our studies.”

Tang Mengran patted Zheng Lingling’s shoulder. “I have some impression of this senior. His family is very well-to-do. The watch that he wears costs over a thousand dollars. Do you think he will be successful?”

Zheng Lingling gulped. “He will definitely be disappointed. Can’t you see that Nan Nan does not have any impression of him? He is just like a pa.s.serby. He will not succeed. What I am curious about is how Nan Nan is going to reject him once and for all.”

Qiao Nan arched her eyebrows and glanced at the empty seat next to her that belonged to Zhu Baoguo.

After Tang Mengran’s reminder last time, Qiao Nan had figured out a pattern.

These boys who asked her to go to the library to ‘read books’ would usually come when Zhu Baoguo was not in the cla.s.sroom. “You have come at the right time. I have a mathematics problem that I can’t solve. Can senior take a look at it?”

“Sure.” The student smiled. He was most worried that Qiao Nan would not give him any response. As long as she was willing to talk to him, he had a way to make her agree to go out with him.

Since the third year student agreed to help, Qiao Nan tore a clean page from her book and wrote said problem on it. She then handed the pen and rough paper to the third year student. “Senior, please help me solve this.”

“No problem.” The third-year student took the paper with confidence.

He was in the top ten among all the third year students. He had no problem with the third year questions, let alone first year ones. It was child’s play to him!

“I will have to trouble senior.” Qiao Nan leaned toward Zhu Baoguo’s empty seat, leaving enough s.p.a.ce for the third year student.

But the third year student soon lost the self-confidence that he had at the beginning. He was full of doubts and looked troubled. He frowned, deep in thought. He never stopped writing, and the rough paper was now covered with workings and calculations. However, he still could not get the answer.

When he realized that there was no more s.p.a.ce on the paper, he hesitated before asking, “Can you give me another piece of rough paper?”

“No problem.” Qiao Nan generously gave him a stack of rough paper. “Feel free to use them.”

With the stack of rough paper, the third year student had lots of paper to work his calculations on.

The third-year student leaned against Qiao Nan’s table for a quarter of an hour, writing three pages worth of calculations, but he just could not get the answer. “This question…”

“It’s okay if you can’t solve it…”
