After carefully reflecting on his performance this semester, Lin Feng didn't think he had done anything particularly wrong.
Well, since he couldn't find a reason within himself, Lin Feng decided it would be easier to ask someone from the Academic Affairs Office. No matter what the issue was, he could just inquire and find out.
Besides, Lin Feng wasn't short on money at the moment; he just found it strange, and strange things deserved to be looked into.
"Forget it, let's go to class first. I'll head to the Academic Affairs Office during lunch," Lin Feng said as he folded the document and put it into his pocket. In fact, as soon as the document entered his pocket, it had already become part of the magic ring.
"Third Brother, I'll go with you," said the chubby guy, his round face still chewing on a bun, speaking with his mouth full. His appearance was truly unflattering.
"Yeah, Third Brother, we'll tag along," added the second guy, looking just as unkempt.
"Alright, I'm just going to take a look; it's not like I'm negotiating with the mafia. More people might actually complicate things," Lin Feng replied appreciatively but didn't want to trouble everyone.
If there was something fishy about this matter, it would be easier for him to handle it alone. Having too many people around could make things inconvenient.
In fact, the main reason was that the director of the school's Academic Affairs Office, Zhu Bajie, had a rather poor reputation. His surname was Zhu, and rumors about him circulated frequently in school. Although no one could prove those rumors were true, they certainly affected people's impressions of him. That's why the chubby guy and the second guy instinctively thought Zhu Bajie was up to no good again.
"Alright, Lin Feng is just going to take a look," said the eldest among them, addressing both the chubby guy and the second guy.
Then he turned to Lin Feng and said, "Lin Feng, if you run into any problems, give us a call. If something really comes up, we can discuss it together; don't act impulsively."
It was clear that the eldest also didn't have a good impression of Director Zhu Bajie.
"Okay, got it. Everyone finished eating? Let's go to class," Lin Feng said after downing the last sip of soy milk.
"Yeah, Lin Feng, thanks for your hospitality today. Hehe... I'll treat you next time," said the second guy after finishing his meal.
"Come on, Madman, let me tell you, this guy is all show. I'm more practical, so don't worry, I'll take care of your breakfast tomorrow. What do you want? Fried dough sticks or Soy Milk?" The chubby guy wiped his lewd face and said to Lin Feng in a "generous" manner.
"Soy Milk and Fried Dough Sticks? I can only choose one? If I pick fried dough sticks, are you planning to choke me or make me burst?" Lin Feng could only sweat in embarrassment at the chubby guy's antics.
"Hehe... if you choose fried dough sticks, considering our years of friendship, I'll throw in some plain water for you to drink as much as you want. No second thoughts from me, brother," the chubby guy continued to wink and thump his chest, looking very loyal.
"Dude, if you spit out the Soy Milk, fried dough sticks, potstickers, and buns you had today, I wouldn't even feed them to you, you ungrateful wolf," Lin Feng could only laugh and scold him.
The chubby guy was a bit stingy, but he was definitely reliable when it came to friends. Lin Feng had often relied on him before; he just had a big mouth.
"Hehe... just kidding," the chubby guy could only laugh it off.
"Haha..." After hearing the chubby guy's words, everyone in the dormitory laughed. Perhaps this was the happiness of college life.
Before his rebirth, Lin Feng thought this kind of life was far from him. Now, he was experiencing it again.
"Alright, let's go; otherwise, we'll be late." The leader called everyone to tidy up the table as they prepared to head to class.
Before long, the four of them walked out of the dormitory together.
Lin Feng and the second guy were classmates in the same major, while the leader was in logistics and the chubby guy was in journalism. With his demeanor, he had already shown his paparazzi instincts at School.
So halfway there, Lin Feng and the second guy parted ways with the chubby guy and the leader to head to their computer science classroom.
By the time Lin Feng and the second guy arrived, most of their classmates were already there. They were just in time; if they had been any later, they would have been late.
Sure enough, not long after they arrived, their computer science teacher, Teacher Li, came in and started taking attendance.
Teacher Li was a middle-aged female teacher. Although there were fewer female computer science teachers at School, it didn't mean that they were less capable. From what Lin Feng knew, Teacher Li was a highly competent teacher.
But Teacher Li has a characteristic in her classes: she is serious. Not only does she rarely smile herself, but she also doesn't allow her students to laugh freely.
As a result, some students don't particularly like her teaching style. Lin Feng doesn't have much to say about it, but he holds no prejudice against Teacher Li. He feels that her lessons are quite good, and there's no need for him to delve into anything else.
"Classmates, today we have a new student joining our class. Let's welcome her together," Teacher Li said with a serious expression.
He really couldn't understand why she couldn't smile even though this wasn't part of the lesson.
Lin Feng felt a bit curious, but when the new student appeared, his curiosity was thrown out the window because he recognized her; he had seen her that morning.
Could she be transferring to our class? Lin Feng was surprised and suddenly remembered what Liu Jing had said earlier: "I transferred for you."
Indeed, the new student in Lin Feng's class was none other than Liu Jing, Miss Liu.
"Hello everyone, my name is Liu Jing. I'm very happy to meet you all and hope we can get along well and make progress together," Liu Jing gracefully stepped onto the podium and smiled at the group of boys below, showing no signs of her usual spoiled demeanor.
Looking at Liu Jing, Lin Feng suddenly thought of Su Xue. Su Xue was also a girl skilled at changing her demeanor, but they were different in many ways.
Seeing the group of boys below acting like fools, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel a bit worried for them. This might be what they call "ignorance is bliss," or more colloquially, "not knowing any better."
With someone like Liu Jing, who could easily use some tricks, Lin Feng was sure that these boys would probably end up being sold out by her and help her count the money.
Of course, Lin Feng thought it wasn't entirely their fault. In the computer science department, there are usually more monks than meat; it's rare to see a girl, especially a beautiful one. Their reaction was somewhat understandable.
We're all just human; who hasn't made mistakes? Lin Feng just hoped they would quickly recognize Liu Jing's true nature so they wouldn't be led around in circles by her.
With just a few simple self-introductions, Liu Jing won applause from all the boys except for Lin Feng. Perhaps this is the charm of a beautiful girl.
"Liu Jing, you can sit in that seat. Your situation has been considered by School," Teacher Li said after listening to Liu Jing's introduction and pointed to a seat for her to take.
"Alright, thank you, Teacher." Liu Jing thanked politely and walked towards the seat pointed out by Teacher Li.
However, Lin Feng couldn't pay attention to Liu Jing's unusually "well-behaved" demeanor at that moment because the seat Teacher Li had indicated was actually Lin Feng's desk. After hearing Teacher's words, the expression on Lin Feng's face turned to one of sheer astonishment.
"Excuse me, can you move your seat?" Liu Jing approached Lin Feng's deskmate and asked her.
Lin Feng's deskmate was an honest boy who had never experienced such politeness from a beautiful girl. After a moment of shock, he nodded repeatedly and said, "Sure, just wait a moment while I tidy up my desk."
"No way, Teacher, I'm not used to sitting with a girl. I'd prefer it the way it was," Lin Feng naturally couldn't let Liu Jing sit next to him just like that. It wasn't that he didn't like beautiful girls; he just knew that this particular beauty was trouble. Who knows what kind of trouble she might bring?
As soon as he said this, Lin Feng became famous in class again. Initially, his classmates were envious and even jealous that Lin Feng had the chance to sit at the same desk as a new beautiful girl.
Well, fine, you have good luck; just keep your joy to yourself. The classmates couldn't do anything about it, but for him to act all high and mighty? That was just cruel! You can't afford to hurt the hearts of single guys!
Lin Feng didn't realize that with just one sentence, he had wounded the hearts of dozens of single boys. At that moment, he could only look at Teacher Li with pleading eyes, silently praying, "Teacher, please spare me; just give me a few days of peace."
Unfortunately, Teacher Li did not hear Lin Feng's silent prayer. She waved her hand and said, "Liu Jing has special eyesight; that seat is most suitable for her. No more arguing; let's start class."
For the first time, Lin Feng felt that Teacher Li wasn't so great after all. How could she not allow anyone to object? Wasn't this ridiculous? Just because she said her eyesight was poor meant it was true? Could her words be trusted?
But no matter how unwilling Lin Feng was inside, Liu Jing still sat next to him, becoming his only female deskmate in many years.
"Hehe... don't worry, I'm just here to get to know you; I won't disturb you," Liu Jing said with a grin as everyone began the class again, completely shedding her earlier well-behaved demeanor.
"I say, young lady, can you stick to your act? It hasn't been long since you changed back to your true self," Lin Feng said helplessly.
"Hehe... I'm not good at acting; it's already impressive that I could keep it up for so long," Liu Jing replied nonchalantly.
"Hehe... you're the leader of a gang and responsible for gathering intelligence; you can't act?" Lin Feng countered.
After waiting for a long time, Lin Feng did not see Liu Jing's response. He turned his head to look over, and the girl was seriously listening to the class.
Well, this just proves that she is not good at acting, yet here she is putting on a performance.
But this is fine; Lin Feng felt a bit more at ease.
With Lin Feng's current ability to remember everything he sees, Teacher Li's lecture was indeed easy to understand. He didn't even need to take notes; he listened while mentally retaining the content that Teacher Li was explaining.
This kind of learning efficiency was quite high.
Finally, class was over. Lin Feng called out to the second-year student who had been giving him a meaningful smile and left the classroom.
Seeing Lin Feng's anxious demeanor, as if he feared being caught by her if he slowed down, Liu Jing couldn't help but smile again, leaving Porky beside her in a daze once more.
Lin Feng hurriedly left the classroom, partly to avoid Liu Jing and partly to find the head of the Academic Affairs Office, Zhu Bajie, to check on the status of his scholarship. He wanted to know what reason could possibly lead to him receiving not even a penny of scholarship money.
