Top Student: Experience Infinite Occupations

Chapter 41 - 41 A Heart-to-heart Talk on the Way Home



While they were waiting, for the first time ever, Huang Jingjing didn’t complain about anything. Her tone was especially gentle as she kept finding new topics to chat with Chen Li. She tried all means to indirectly find out about Li Chengqian’s studies, and looked at Chen Li with undisguised envy.

Not far away, Jian Qingli was also talking to Li Chengqian.

“Li Chengqian, your results are clearly so good. Why did you hide it from me?” Jian Qingli’s voice carried a trace of resentment as Li Chengqian shouldn’t have kept it from her.

“Jian Qingli, I didn’t hide anything. I’ve said it before, but you just didn’t believe me.” Li Chengqian was especially calm. He spoke to Jian Qingli the same way he spoke to any other classmates.

Jian Qingli frowned. “If you had told me a few more times and explained yourself, I would have believed what you said.”

“We’re just classmates. There’s no need for that! Whether you believe me or not is actually not that important.” Li Chengqian glanced at Jian Qingli indifferently, his voice still calm.

When he was just reborn, to be honest, Li Chengqian still harbored some hopes about Jian Qingli. However, everything that happened later completely shattered his fantasy about her.

He no longer had any feelings for Jian Qingli.

When Jian Qingli heard this, she felt especially sad and was on the verge of crying.

She suppressed the urge to cry and had a bitter smile on her face. She changed the topic and said, “Li Chengqian, with your results, you can get into any faculty. Why did you want to participate in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition?”

“No reason in particular. When I heard about it, I just felt like participating.” Li Chengqian shook his head and didn’t answer Jian Qingli’s question directly.

In fact, when he had just been reborn, he still didn’t know the functions of the Master of All Professions game. In addition, he knew that software is the future, thus he wanted to try his hands in any software competition.

While he was at it, he also wanted to bring Jian Qingli and Ding Ling, his old classmates from his previous life, to Divine Dragon University with him.

Unfortunately, he invited Jian Qingli to form a team with him twice.

However, Jian Qingli didn’t believe him at all and chose to team up with Bi Jialiang.

Because of this, Jian Qingli even said, “What a joke!”

Therefore, there was no point in saying this now.

Jian Qingli could also tell that Li Chengqian didn’t want to talk about this any further, so she didn’t pursue the matter.

Then, she nonchalantly asked the question she wanted to ask the most. “Then how do you think you’ll do in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition?”

After Li Chengqian’s results were announced, she began to recall her past conversations with him.

Then, she was surprised to find that everything Li Chengqian said was true. He had not bragged once.

He said that he would score full marks in the second mock exam, and he really did.

“It shouldn’t be an issue to come in the top 50 in the country.” Li Chengqian smiled confidently. He had already understood the basics of programming and hardware. Now, he was writing the operating system. He didn’t dare to say that he would get first place in this competition, but he was definitely confident in getting into the top three.

Jian Qingli’s first reaction was disbelief because this was too ridiculous.

However, when she thought of how Li Chengqian had scored full marks for the second mock exam, she had no choice but to believe him.

After all, a perfect score was more ridiculous than any other situation.

Jian Qingli’s mind raced. After thinking carefully, she opened her mouth seemingly very casually, but her eyes were extremely nervous. “Li Chengqian, I recall that your team is still short of one person. Why don’t I join your team?”

Just then, Ding Ling saw Li Chengqian standing by the roadside. She ran over excitedly and looked at him with admiration.

“Li Chengqian, you’re awesome!” Her voice was filled with excitement and unconcealed pride.

If they weren’t at the school gate and their parents weren’t here, she would want to give Li Chengqian a big hug.

“Li Chengqian, I’m so happy today.”

“Bi Jialiang from our class has always looked down on you. He’s been bad mouthing you everywhere, saying that your results are bad, that you’re bragging all day long, that you’re a beginner in programming and can’t even pass the preliminary round.”

“After he signed up for the Junior Informatics Programming Competition, he became even more arrogant. He is so annoying.”

“After your results were announced today, his face changed immediately. He looked terribly upset.”

“When he realized that I was looking at him, he was too embarrassed to look at me.”

“In the future, he might take a detour when he sees you.” Ding Ling was especially happy as she chattered to Li Chengqian about the news.

“Ah, Jian Qingli, you’re here too?” After saying that, Ding Ling saw Jian Qingli and immediately felt a little awkward.

After all, Jian Qingli and Bi Jialiang were very close. They looked like a couple. It was indeed very awkward to speak ill of someone in front of his girlfriend.

“Yes!” Jian Qingli looked very upset. Ding Ling had said something about Bi Jialiang in front of her just now. It was as if she had deliberately said it to humiliate her.

Jian Qingli suppressed her anger and went back to the topic again.

“Ding Ling, I was just telling Li Chengqian that your team for the Junior Informatics Programming Competition is still short of one person. Why don’t I join your team? Do you welcome me?” Jian Qingli said with a smile. She was prepared to use Ding Ling as a leverage point.

She felt that Ding Ling was the type who didn’t know how to say no, and she wouldn’t be able to turn her down.

As expected, Ding Ling was stunned when she heard Jian Qingli’s request. She opened her mouth, wanting to reject her, but the words wouldn’t come.

However, she was extremely unwilling to agree to Jian Qingli’s request.

Firstly, Li Chengqian used to like Jian Qingli. What if their relationship was rekindled after they got together as a team?

Secondly, before this, Jian Qingli had always looked down on Li Chengqian. This made her extremely detestable.

Therefore, she looked at Li Chengqian for help.

“Jian Qingli, I’m sorry. Our team is full now.” Li Chengqian was straightforward. He was upfront and blunt. He rejected Jian Qingli in her face.

He had given Jian Qingli a chance to join his team when he was signing up.

In fact, he gave her two chances!

At that time, he had just been reborn. His thoughts were very simple. He thought that apart from changing his fate, he would also change Jian Qingli’s tragic fate.

Unfortunately, Jian Qingli did not appreciate it.

Now that she realized how powerful Li Chengqian was, she wanted to rely on him?

...

He, Li Chengqian, was not a public bus. He would not be at someone’s beck and call!

There is no free lunch in this world!

After hearing Li Chengqian’s words, Jian Qingli’s face fell. It was as if she had bled heavily and her face turned pale.
