Chapter 10

Coming to the canteen, the crowd inside was clearly much larger than yesterday, creating a noisy and bustling atmosphere. Su Yuan subtly frowned, "There are so many people, Ye Hao, I don't have any money on my meal card, can you get the food for me? I'll go find a seat!"

After saying this, she walked towards an empty table. Ye Hao was taken aback for a moment, but thinking about the many students eating here, he realized that not reserving a few seats might mean having nowhere to sit. Knowing that Su Yuan was being lazy, he could only remain speechless and head towards the long queue.

After queuing and getting the food, he soon returned with several dishes and two bowls of rice. Gao Jun got himself a pot dish, implying that he had been tired these days and needed to replenish himself.

After finishing their meal, the group carried their plates to the slop bucket to dispose of the leftovers. Upon returning, Gao Jun continued working on his software, while Ye Hao flipped through his textbook, likely doing some pre-study.

Outside the window, it was drizzling, another rainy night. Just like yesterday, Su Yuan moved a chair to the aluminum glass door between the dormitory and the balcony, straddling it and resting her chin on her hands, lost in thought.

After a while, feeling quite bored, she nudged someone's back, "Ye Hao, I'm feeling depressed again..."

"Tell me about it!" His train of thought interrupted, Ye Hao put down his textbook and turned around, helpless.

"Um, there's nothing much to say."

"You're just messing with me." Ye Hao shook his head helplessly. "I guess so," Su Yuan admitted. Ye Hao made a move as if to hit her with the textbook on the table, but in the end, he didn't.

"..."

Suddenly, Su Yuan thought of something and asked, "Ye Hao, why do you have the surname Ji?"

"Because my dad has the surname Ji."

What kind of answer is that? She joked, "Actually, I think the surname Ye is pretty good. Ye Hao sounds much better than Ji Ye Hao, it sounds so smooth."

"Your body and hair are gifts from your parents. If you think the surname Ye is good, why don't you change your surname to Ye?"

Su Yuan shook her head, "That's different. I think the surname Su is a bit better than Ye. By the way, your dad has the surname Ji, what about your mom?"

"Surname Su!"

"Ah!" Su Yuan was surprised, "We're from the same clan! Surnames and family names, surnames come from the maternal line, and family names from the paternal line. I think it would be nice if you used your mom's surname."

Ji Ye Hao looked at Su Yuan carefully and frowned, "Are you so enthusiastic about changing people's surnames? What kind of mentality is that?"

"Hehe." Su Yuan laughed awkwardly.

Ji Ye Hao also found it interesting to joke around, "Why don't you change your surname to Ji, like me?"

"NO! NO! NO! The surname Su sounds better... Besides, the surname Ji doesn't even rank in the top thousand of the Hundred Family Names, it's just in some obscure corner. The surname Su, on the other hand, is in the top fifty, a super common surname. A comparison shows that the surname Su is more popular."

So, you choose the surname that sounds better and is more popular? Ji Ye Hao was very frustrated.

"By the way, have you bought the Huaxin Technology stock yet?"

Ji Ye Hao, exasperated, said, "No!" Then he paused and asked, "Are you sure I should buy this stock?"

"Tsk," Su Yuan snorted, "If you're not buying it, why have you been following it for months?" She looked at him in surprise, and Ji Ye Hao nodded thoughtfully, "After analyzing it for months, I finally see some signs."

"Did the stock go up or down today?"

"It went down, it has been falling for several days."

Su Yuan put on a mature face and said, "That's good, the major player has gathered enough shares, it's time for it to rise."

"Wow, I didn't expect you to know this."

"Is that hard? I can teach you, and you'll learn!"

...

My tomorrow

Which day

When will I stop missing

Forget the time

Forget yesterday

Love and hate will no longer be repeated

But Su Yuan felt the atmosphere was a bit cold, so she played the female version of "Autumn Departure" on her knock-off phone, which she had just downloaded.

As Ji Ye Hao said, the female version had a different charm compared to the male version.

...

...

Last night, the rain was gentle, and the temperature was just right. However, as soon as the morning sun appeared, it marked the start of a scorching day. The ground quickly became hot.

Early in the morning, students rushed out of the dormitories, and as it approached eight o'clock, the busy scene vividly demonstrated the fast pace of campus life.

Ji Ye Hao and Gao Jun went to the classroom to reserve seats, but Su Yuan was still dawdling, finishing up in the dormitory. It wasn't that Su Yuan wanted to dawdle; the change in her body made it impossible for her to do many things as casually as before.

Just take washing up and using the toilet, for example. In the past, several people would do it together, taking turns, which was efficient. Now, she couldn't do that anymore. She either had to get up early to finish or stay until the end, and she had to lock the door when using the toilet.

"Like this, it should be fine." Looking at herself in the mirror, she still looked "handsome" as before. She patted her face, satisfied. After this morning's "rehearsal," she decided it would be better to get up earlier in the future.

She wore a white short-sleeved shirt with a blue and red stripe on each shoulder, and a thin pair of jeans. This outfit was not only cool but also added a fresh and clean look to Su Yuan.

Before leaving, she checked her schedule. In the morning, she had "Linear Algebra" and "University English II," and no classes in the afternoon. So, she carried her textbooks and headed towards classroom NC210.

At the entrance of the teaching building, students were crowded at the stairwell, and her steps had to slow down. It was almost eight o'clock, but the classroom was still a long way away. Su Yuan became anxious, constantly looking ahead.

Although being late wasn't a big deal, and she could sneak in through the back door, it was the first class, and it would be embarrassing to do so under everyone's watchful eyes. Just as she was looking at the crowd ahead, a hand pulled her. "What are you looking at? Over here!" Ji Ye Hao was standing at the back door of a classroom, not knowing when he had arrived.

She looked at the classroom he pointed to, NA203, in surprise, "NA203?"

It was a large classroom, similar to NC210, capable of accommodating seventy to eighty students.

Seeing the "Linear Algebra" and "University English II" textbooks in Su Yuan's hand, Ji Ye Hao was surprised, "Hey, today is Thursday, you have 'Physical Chemistry' and 'Human Physiology' classes."

"Ah!" Su Yuan couldn't help but be surprised, "No way, I thought today was Friday."

Ji Ye Hao laughed, "I think you're still disoriented from the summer break, even mixing up the days of the week."

"Don't talk about that, let's go, let's go." She pushed Ji Ye Hao into the classroom, cleverly defusing her embarrassment. After two months of staying at home, she had been in a daze, and even by the start of the semester, she hadn't adjusted.

"Ring, ring, ring!" The class bell rang, interrupting their conversation. "Over here!" Gao Jun waved at her from a seat in the middle back.

Yang Xiaowei was also sitting there, a tall and sunny young man. Although they were roommates, he rarely stayed in the dormitory. He moved over to make space for Su Yuan and greeted her, "Su Yuan, you just made it in time!"

"Pure coincidence!"

Su Yuan laughed, responding to Yang Xiaowei.
