Chapter 884 Get a Clue
Even so, Tang Jiayun also felt that today’s matter was too embarrassing.
What if she were to find a boyfriend in school in the future? When she was dating, what if someone were to suddenly tell her boyfriend that she was once punished to run during military training? Would she still be able to continue with the relationship?
If she could not find herself a good boyfriend and let slip her prince charming because of this blemish in her life, who was to be blamed? Could Qiao Nan afford to compensate her?!
Having listened to such ridiculous reasoning from Tang Jiayun, Qiao Nan twitched the corners of her lips. She looked at Tang Jiayun in shock and disbelief. “I have understood most of your words. Can I please ask how you got into Peking University with that intellect of yours?”
Tang Jiayun was unreasonable. She could not blame Qiao Nan for speaking out so harshly.
“You...”
Yu Xiaoxiao held on to Tang Jiayun swiftly. “Don’t tell me you wish to create trouble again and be punished by the instructors, offending the counselor? The school term has just started for two days and you wish to write a second self-reflection letter? Lü Yan is right when she said that this matter does not have anything to do with Qiao Nan. Qiao Nan had already tried to wake us up when she got up this morning. She had urged us more than once.”
They were the ones who had been too exhausted from the fun yesterday. Due to feelings of excitement, they not only slept late but also had difficulty falling asleep. As such, they could not get out of bed today and as a result, they were punished by the instructor to do the runs.
“As dormitory mates, she ran off just after trying to wake us up twice. Is that correct?” Tang Jiayun would not concede defeat. “If she had tried a few more times, perhaps we wouldn’t have been late. Furthermore, we are going to be four years of dormitory mates in college. We should love and care for one another. We should feel proud as a team. I am ashamed of her behavior which abandoned us halfway! There are only four people in the dormitory. Three of us were punished and only one individual did not face any problem, yet she still thinks that she has done well? This is not being sociable!”
“Tang Jiayun, you have gone overboard.” Lü Yan took a deep breath. “Alright, we have been punished today. Quickly bathe and go to sleep to replenish yesterday’s loss. Anyway, I certainly don’t want to be punished to do the runs again tomorrow.”
“What do the two of you mean by this? Don’t tell me that you don’t blame Qiao Nan in your heart at all. Your expressions say otherwise.” Tang Jiayun was displeased that Yu Xiaoxiao and Lü Yan put her down and did not stand by her side when she was criticizing Qiao Nan.
Yu Xiaoxiao let out an exasperated sigh. She could not be bothered to waste her breath on Tang Jiayun anymore.
There were only four people in the dormitory and Qiao Nan was the only one who was not punished. Yu Xiaoxiao also felt extremely embarrassed about being punished. She also took a little issue to and felt uneasy toward Qiao Nan. However, this was a separate matter altogether.
Since Qiao Nan could not wake them up, she should have stayed behind and waited for them such that they would be late and punished together? Yu Xiaoxiao was unable to agree with these words of Tang Jiayun.
Anyway, if she were in Qiao Nan’s shoes, like Qiao Nan, she would definitely proceed to the gathering area first. After all, she had already tried but others would not get up.
To stay behind, be late, and be punished together because of dormitory team spiritshe did not believe that Tang Jiayun would be able to do this if she were Qiao Nan. Was she trying to scare a fool?
Since she was unable to reason out with Tang Jiayun, Yu Xiaoxiao kept mum. Like what Lü Yan said, she could not commit the same mistake again. It was impossible for her to continue to fall in the same place. She had to get up quickly.
Although she was unhappy that Qiao Nan was the only one from the dormitory that was not punished, Yu Xiaoxiao was smart enough to follow the footsteps of Qiao Nan. She no longer dared to listen to Tang Jiayun’s cajoling—that they had to relax a little, have more fun, and widen their horizons since they were now in college.
Students were students after all. At the very least, during the military training period, the rules were stricter than before.
It was not just Yu Xiaoxiao. Lü Yan was silent but she was also prepared to do so.
They had not slept well at all last night. At this juncture, Lü Yan just wished to lie on the bed and sleep as soon as possible. However, she had to wash the clothing that she wore during the military training. If she did not do so, it would become moldy vegetables soon.
It takes two hands to clap. Qiao Nan just took it that Tang Jiayun was crazy while Yu Xiaoxiao and Lü Yan decided not to join Tang Jiayun in her fun endeavors anymore. Tang Jiayun, who had been punished and embarrassed for the whole day, also did not wish to make the same mistake again. Hence, the topic that was clearly very intense and shameless ceased.
When the three of them started to wash up, Qiao Nan simply took out a book, covered her face, and went to sleep.
No matter how unhappy Yu Xiaoxiao and Lü Yan were, they knew the limits. However, it was different for Tang Jiayun. She deliberately made a ruckus when she was taking a bath and washing her face and clothes to disturb Qiao Nan such that the latter could not sleep.
On what grounds could Qiao Nan comfortably sleep when she could not even lift her hands after being worn out by such a long punishment?
Tang Jiayun intended to take revenge on Qiao Nan but Yu Xiaoxiao stopped her. “Tang Jiayun, enough. This is the school dormitory, not the house of your Tang family. With the noises that you’re making, do you think the schoolmates staying upstairs, downstairs, and all around us will not have any views on this? Are you trying to provoke the counselor to come over?”
Due to the military training, who did not become as exhausted as a dog? Who did not wish to sleep immediately once they had the time to do so?
With Tang Jiayun making such a din, she might not manage to disturb Qiao Nan. Instead, she might wake others up.
If the counselor were to pursue this matter, the whole dormitory and not just Tang Jiayun would be down on luck. They would have to be punished together!
Yu Xiaoxiao was very fearful of being tricked by Tang Jiayun again. Once bitten, twice shy. This time, Yu Xiaoxiao was not willing to let Tang Jiayun make a din. “I think Qiao Nan is right in something that she said.”
How did Tang Jiayun get into Peking University with that intellect of hers?
Tang Jiayun was not afraid of offending Qiao Nan but she was a little worried about falling out with other schoolmates.
Having been chided by Yu Xiaoxiao, Tang Jiayun also did not continue to foolishly make a din. She became more abiding.
When the three of them had finished drying their clothes, they fell onto the bed and slept. In fact, they did not even take their dinner. It was not because they did not manage to buy anything. They were just so exhausted that they lost their appetite.
Tang Jiayun’s temper was certainly not good. She had been punished and embarrassed herself. She thus wanted to save herself some face. Therefore, she had wanted to lay her hands on Qiao Nan.
Unfortunately, the strength of the military training was too great. Tang Jiayun had the intention but did not have the strength to do so. Not knowing why, Tang Jiayun seemed to have become the target of the instructor’s ‘special care’. It was completing the same mission. Others managed to complete them successfully but Tang Jiayun had to be ‘picked on’ for her mistakes, and it occurred for every mistake that she committed.
When Tang Jiayun made a mistake, what was needed to be done? She had to be punished. She had to do the action again until she got it right.
Under such ‘special care’, at the end of the military training, Tang Jiayun had lost all her strength despite her ‘thoughts’. That little strength left of hers was saved to pine for the military training to end soon so that she could escape from all the pain and suffering.
It was not that Qiao Nan, who had been ‘remembered’ by Tang Jiayun, did not sense anything. Now, their dormitory had been divided into three groups. Yu Xiaoxiao and Lü Yan belonged to one group. They ostracized her and distanced themselves from Tang Jiayun. Both she and Tang Jiayun were on their own.
Qiao Nan sighed. Was she going to trouble Brother Zhai again for this?
