Chapter 62: Transitional Chapter Can’t Think of a Name

Jiang Feng got off the bus and somehow closed eight deals.

Of the twenty-six seats on the bus, there were only fourteen female students, and more than half of the girls placed orders on the spot. This easily demonstrated how eager women can be to chase after pretty things, and how easily their money is earned.

After dinner back at the shop, Jiang Feng returned to the dormitory. Experiencing the workload of a master chef in the cafeteria had left his arms a bit sore-ordinary people really couldn’t handle stirring such a large pot every day.

The final exams were just around the corner. Wang Hao was struggling desperately in the library, studying late into the night as if trying to mend the sky like Nuwa or create characters like Cangjie. Jiang Feng was different. With the convenience of the game, he had leveled several subjects up to high level. He could quickly integrate and comprehend the textbook knowledge with just a casual flip through the books. It wasn’t enough for scientific research, but more than sufficient for passing the finals with ease.

While the dorm was empty, Jiang Feng opened his attribute panel.

Current update progress: 4.7.75%.

Eh?

Displayed on the update progress bar was a Heartwarming Beautiful Radish crying, having been chopped in half. The artwork was very refined and looked quite adorable.

Not only had the update speed increased, but this game even had graphic designers now!

Before, the attribute panel had nothing but text, not even a simple frame or bar, and the fonts were all the standard Song typeface. Jiang Feng was confident that with WPS, he could create a better-looking attribute panel than the game.

Jiang Feng was somewhat looking forward to seeing what the new attribute panel would look like.

The damned game was actually starting to focus on player experience-it was as if it was raining red from the sky.

At this pace, the game would be updated by tomorrow.

Jiang Feng happily went to wash up and sleep.

"Optional side quest available, please select.”

"Ding, game update complete.”

At four in the morning, Jiang Feng was awakened by the game’s notification sound.

His eyes opened groggily as the mechanical female voice suddenly echoed in his mind. The fact that he didn’t jump straight out of bed was already quite calm of him.

Sitting woodenly on the bed and staring blankly out of the pitch-black window, Jiang Feng quietly calmed down for a bit and, resisting the urge to smash the damned game, he opened the attribute panel.

Indeed, the game had hired a graphic designer.

Not only had the font changed, but the formatting had also changed. It was much fresher, with bold borders added, and even patterns along the edges. It was a complete overhaul.

Recipes: (Please click to view details)

Evaluation: An utterly unremarkable beginner

The game still played coy, forcing him to click to check the details of the recipes. When Jiang Feng clicked on the recipe section, the interface immediately changed.

It was no longer text but icons, a row of dark black frames, with only three of them lit up.

Wang Shitou (1/1), Jiang Huiqin (1/3), Li Sanya (1/1)

Clicking on them would bring up the corresponding recipes, complete with pictures and text, very convenient. You could even check the associated memories in the recipes.

However (1/3)…

Jiang Feng guessed that the game probably meant that Jiang Huiqin had three recipes, but he had only discovered one so far.

The game developers had finally shown some conscience by fixing the bug of converting experience points into proficiency, even if their solution to the bug was to simply remove it.

Solving the problem at its root.

Woken up by the noise, he couldn’t fall asleep anymore.

After accepting the [Precious Memories] quest, Jiang Feng simply turned on the bedside lamp and studied in bed.

The final exams were approaching, and he needed to show the tests a basic level of respect.

Wang Hao, half-asleep and half-awake, thought he saw a beam of light, a beam shimmering with the glow of studying.

Someone was studying behind his back!

Even though Wang Hao was asleep, his dreams had completely changed.

"You all study behind my back, especially you, Feng…”

"I want to study too; I’ll secretly study behind all your backs.”

"Hehehe…”

Jiang Feng, who was reading Signals and Systems:…

What on earth was he dreaming about…
