Cheng Yu'an threw his college mathematics book and introduction to culture on the table, and the plastic cover clanged on the corner of the table. The third child flipped up his hair and looked in the mirror, then turned to look at him: "Being defeated by Xie Zhiyuan by one point again? His face was almost wet with tears."
"Let him taste the taste of second place next time." Cheng Yu'an pulled his sweater hat to cover half of his face.
The boss took off his headphones: "Don't be so harsh. Since high school, when has he not suppressed you? Last time at the end of the semester, he even changed his writing to tease you. It was very annoying."
"Deserves a beating." Cheng Yu'an poked at the exercise book with his fingertips - inside was Xie Zhiyuan's movie ticket stub. He cursed "childish", but he kept turning the pages without moving.
The second child came over with a basketball in his arms: "Try 'disrupting the plan'? After you have sex, drag him to play ball and watch movies. I'm sure his review time will be halved."
"Nonsense." Cheng Yu'an frowned, the tips of his ears turning red. Xie Zhiyuan changed his thermos cup last week, and was coaxed to buy milk tea after being stared at. The cup is now used as a pen holder.
The third child hooked his neck: "A precise strike. He has loved teasing you since he was a child. He's still not allowed to hang around you when he's in love with you?"
Cheng Yu'an rubbed the sticky note on the inside of the cover - "302, turn left on the third floor, don't get lost" written by freshman Xie Zhiyuan.
The boss threw orange candies and said, "Try it. If you succeed, you will be number one. Don't just make more friends."
The candy paper rustled, and Cheng Yu'an stuffed the candy into his mouth. The orange flavor spread and said, "Okay, just give it a try." His heartbeat was as fast as breaking his throat, half from competition, and half from expectation that he didn't even understand.
