The next day, it poured rain.

Jiang Nian was awakened by the sound of rain outside the window and opened the window to take a look. Oh boy, it was totally gray outside.

"The rainy season has arrived."

He sighed, the fate of Zhen Nan. Every time the college entrance exam came, it rained heavily, but fortunately, he had made preparations in advance.

Once that day came, it shouldn't be too chaotic.

He got up and washed.

He hurried downstairs, walked into the rain with an umbrella. The steam rising from the street was mixed with a smell of earth.

"What to eat?"

"Three braised.... "

Before Jiang Nian could finish, the boss had already started packing swiftly. Neatly as usual.

"Scan this," the boss pointed at the QR code.

Jiang Nian: "..."

Okay, he remembered me.

"The college entrance exam is tough, isn't it?" The bun shop owner suddenly put his hands on his hips and commented.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Nian was slightly taken aback.

"More or less."

"Do well on it," the bun shop owner smiled, "Come on the day of the exam, I'll give you a free one."

He hesitated for a moment, "Alright, then help me pack three hundred buns in advance and put them in a foam box."

The owner's expression changed and immediately corrected himself.

"Pretend I didn't say that."

Jiang Nian didn't care, walked into the rain with his umbrella. On the day of the exam, he probably wouldn't buy buns.

Would eat something casually at home, then head to the exam venue.

On the way upstairs, he saw a girl in the hallway on the third floor. The back looked familiar, so he looked a little more.

"Zhou Haifei?"

The girl was murmuring her book, turned her head upon hearing him.

"Morning... morning."

"Mm." Jiang Nian just greeted her, was about to continue upstairs but stopped to think again.

It was past six ten in the morning.

It was pouring outside. The hallway was dim; this kind of weather didn't bring people early.

"By the way, what are your plans after the college entrance exam?"

He remembered, Zhou Haifei said before that after the exam, she packed up and wasn't planning on going home.

"I..."

Zhou Haifei lowered her head and said softly, "I'm planning to go do summer jobs with friends."

"Oh~ sounds good too." Jiang Nian said nonchalantly, "If you need help, remember to ask me."

"Can't help much, but finding a place for stuff, or a summer job, no problem."

Zhou Haifei's eyes lit up but seemed a bit embarrassed.

"I'll consider it..."

"Alright." Jiang Nian was slightly worried but unsure of himself, "Anyway, don't hesitate."

"Okay, thank you."

"Alright, I'm heading upstairs." Jiang Nian turned and went upstairs, with no distracting thoughts anymore.

Upstairs, in the sound of pouring rain.

Huang Fang arrived a bit late, shaking water off her umbrella. Hearing someone call her from behind, she instinctively turned back.

"Hmm, morning."

"You just arrived?" Jiang Nian put down his umbrella, a bit surprised, "Much later than usual."

"Why come so early?" Huang Fang glanced at him, "Can't compete anymore, you win."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Nian showed a satisfied expression.

"Hey hey hey."

"Don't say that, I'm not competing with you." He followed her, "Aren't you adjusting your schedule?"

"Biological clock, can't help it." Huang Fang sighed, "I wake up at the same time, what can I do."

"Reach out to me." Jiang Nian entered the classroom, "I still have some melatonin, you can try."

Upon hearing this, Huang Fang stepped back a few paces.

"Medicine?"

"Why so nervous, sold buns in your past life?" Jiang Nian said, "For sleep."

Huang Fang: "..."

"I can sleep at night, just wake up too early. Fine, give me one to try."

"Alright."

For a while, during morning self-study, Huang Fang turned her head. Secretly asked Zhizhi about the price of melatonin.

After learning the price, she relaxed.

Zhang Ningzhi blinked her eyes, "Fangfang, can't sleep? I have something better."

"No no, forget it." Huang Fang waved, "I already agreed to Jiang Nian, would be cheating him otherwise."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ningzhi smiled slightly.

"He is indeed petty."

....

Afternoon self-study, English listening.

"The price of the shirt is nine pounds fifteen pence..." English listening broadcast echoed in the classroom.

No one from Class Three was impatient or doing other homework because there was none.

Even Li Hua, was looking serious. Holding his pencil, scribbling on the listening problems.

After it ended, Jiang Nian asked him.

"Done?"

"Almost, roughly." Li Hua sighed, "Give me one more term, it would be good."

"Leader, you repeat a year." Zeng You turned over, "That way, you'll have two more terms."

"Chi Shi!!"

Li Hua retorted angrily, suddenly started singing, "Time, please slow down, don't..."

"By the way, playing ball this afternoon?"

Jiang Nian thought for a moment, made an OK gesture.

"Sure."

"No way!" Zhang Ningzhi pulled him and said fiercely, "Only seven days left, what if you hurt your hand."

Jiang Nian: "Eh..."

Li Hua made a basketball shooting gesture, "If he really hurts, I'll slide over and cushion him."

"Is that okay now?"

Zhang Ningzhi blushed a bit from his words, "Hmph, just reminding, couldn't care less."

Upon hearing this, Li Hua and Ma Guojun exchanged a glance. They are unbeatable, not even pretending anymore.

After school.

Jiang Nian and Li Hua together called a few boys from the class. Went down to play half-court basketball, to relax.

Rain stopped in the morning, the court was half dry, half wet, when the ball landed in a puddle, it immediately made a splash.

Couldn't make big moves, but everyone was still happy. After all, fewer chances to play at this time.

During the break, Ma Guojun said.

"Speaking of which, remember? Dong Que brought water for Jiang Nian before too."
