The day earlier than every of her lessons, Zhu Yun would preview the fabric for the following lesson. Her top quality was on principle. Zhu Yun skimmed a number of pages, after which she flipped the web page again. The contents of the web page precipitated her eyes to widen.

Though she didn’t but perceive precisely what these capabilities meant, the construction of it left a really deep impression on her. Wasn’t this crossing the river to die? Zhu Yun began flipping by way of the pages, quicker and quicker. In her arms, the e-book rustled. After she completed trying over the past web page, she set free a sigh.

She closed the e-book and appeared over the daring textual content on the quilt. “C Programming…” It was the primary time for the reason that school entrance examination that she’d felt this combating spirit ignite inside her.

She studied late into the night time, after which earlier than 6 within the morning, she woke as much as proceed.

By the point class began, she’d gone over three chapters.

Trainer Lin taught the C programming course. She’d heard that he was very well-known and revered. A bit older than 50, he was already bald. He additionally appreciated to giggle, which led to the doubling of wrinkles on his face. He appeared simply the way in which an previous man would.

The category met within the multimedia classroom. It was very easy to slack off in a classroom like this.

With a number of rows of computer systems operating, in addition to many our bodies emitting warmth, the room received actually stuffy. Simply half an hour inside was arduous to bear. And with the pc screens to behave as boundaries, so long as the professor remained on the lectern in entrance, you may go to sleep with out anybody noticing.

Zhu Yun didn’t know who to set as her rival, however she knew that she wished to do properly within the class. So, she determined to sit down within the entrance row.

The bell rang to sign the beginning of the category. Zhu Yun’s eyes flit from side to side unnaturally. Nobody?

…There was no have to be like this.

As she was pondering that, High Rating Li strode into the classroom. He’d probably simply woken up from a day nap as a result of his hair appeared like a Tremendous Saiyan’s. When he walked into the room, he headed straight for the again row. A scholar informed him, “This laptop doesn’t activate. It’s damaged.”

“….”

Li Xun received up and appeared round.

Zhu Yun couldn’t assist laughing inside—You needed to combat for a seat within the final row of a faculty classroom. You don’t perceive that, and also you even took a nap?

Outdated Lin had completed his preparation for the lesson. His tea was prepared, and he cleared his throat, about to begin class. Then he found Li Xun standing up within the again. He waved at Li Xun and pointed to the seat beside Zhu Yun.

An ominous feeling overcame Zhu Yun. No, no, no, no, no…

Oh, sure. Trainer Lin stated, “Pupil, this seat is open.”

Within Zhu Yun’s head: No—!

The Saiyan walked over and sat down. Zhu Yun appeared down at her e-book, expressionless.

Trainer Lin began class. He held his cup of tea and requested the scholars, “Is there anybody who already is aware of C or has used C to jot down some small applications?”

Zhu Yun gave Li Xun a sidelong look. Elevate your hand. Don’t you already know about crossing the river and dying?

Having obtained no response, Trainer Lin smiled and stated, “Ah, everybody’s nonetheless a bit shy.”

He put down his cup of tea. “Everybody is aware of that that is the Data Age. Laptop expertise is being developed at a really quick tempo, and programming languages have additionally been developed in a short time. In comparison with all the brand new languages accessible now, C is, like myself, fairly previous.

“Because the saying goes although, ‘the older the ginger, the warmer its spice.’ It’s wealthy and compact. Sooner or later, whether or not you wish to proceed learning algorithms or compilers, work on databases or working programs, what you study from C is sufficient to kind a really strong basis for all of your future programming wishes.

“However I’ve another factor to say to everybody. Keep in mind, only one brief phrase—artwork exists past technical talent.”

The scholars listened with out making a sound. Outdated Lin raised one finger, his eyes glimmering. “It’s best to all be very happy with yourselves for stepping into this faculty. However keep in mind to not make the error that good college students typically make—combating with the textbook.”

Zhu Yun felt like somebody had simply choked her.

“You’ll study many programming languages in your 4 years of faculty. Keep in mind, don’t get caught up with all of the technical issues. You need to take a look at the massive image, the general drawback, even if you’re coping with easy applications.

“Alright. You college students gained’t utterly perceive the horrifying issues I’m speaking about now. You’ll simply need to slowly expertise it for yourselves. For now, everybody, take a look at your screens. It’s time to begin class.”

Zhu Yun was savoring the phrases that Outdated Lin had simply imparted. Unintentionally, she noticed that beside her, High Rating Li was taking part in on his telephone.

Li Xun was tall, and he didn’t know fairly easy methods to relaxation his legs. When the category first began, he sat along with his legs collectively, however as the category continued, they grew extra slack. Slowly, they began to encroach on Zhu Yin’s territory. In the long run, Zhu Yun might solely sit along with her legs collectively, not shifting an inch.

Her legs had been actually stiff. She actually wished to maneuver them. Why was this class so painful…

“To review C, we should first study its historical past and traits. So, who can inform us a bit concerning the historical past of C?” Outdated Lin raised the primary query.

Zhu Yun wasn’t ordinarily the kind of scholar to lift her hand and reply questions, however she simply actually wished to maneuver. Her hand popped into the air as if she’d had no management over it.

Since she sat up entrance, Outdated Lin noticed her instantly.

“You.”

The fabric she’d previewed yesterday appeared in her head and she or he repeated its content material with out a hitch. After she answered the query, her blood appeared to have gotten flowing. She felt refreshed, the identical feeling you get after utilizing the restroom.

Zhu Yun sat again down leisurely. She caught a glimpse of Li Xun her, a faint smile in his face.

“It’s you.”

You simply realized it was me?

Zhu Yun nodded to him courteously. Then she noticed Li Xun sneer earlier than returning to the sport on his telephone.

“….”

Outdated Lin stated, “I stated earlier than that you just had been all too bashful. After I requested if anybody knew about C, nobody raised their hand.” He requested her, “What’s your title?”

Zhu Yun rapidly replied, “Zhu Yun.”

Outdated Lin looked for her title on the category roster after which made a test mark. “You’re the category consultant.”

Zhu Yun: ?!

I had no such want for that, Trainer!

She heard amusing beside her. Zhu Yun glanced over. Li Xun’s head was nonetheless bowed, so she wasn’t fairly positive if he was laughing at her or his telephone.

The primary lesson was concerning the fundamentals, and the professor had solely taught very primary content material. Simply as he completed lecturing, the bell rang. Outdated Lin didn’t rush. He put the quilt again on his cup and stated, “If you happen to’ve completed, you’ll be able to go. Depart your computer systems on for the category consultant to test.”

Li Xun put down his telephone and tapped away on the laptop keyboard for a bit. A bit. Effectively, really, not even 5 seconds had handed earlier than he received up and left.

Outdated Lin handed Zhu Yun the category roster. “In the event that they completed, put a checkmark. If not, put an X. Thanks in your work.”

“….”

This system they had been to jot down was quite simple, so the scholars completed one after one other. Zhu Yun grabbed the roster and took a take a look at Li Xun’s laptop first.

Hit the spacebar to run. A row of characters appeared on the display—

Zhu Yun checked out it, and for some motive, she all of a sudden laughed.

Half a month after lessons began, the attendance charges for the morning and night examine halls had been so low that the category advisor needed to step in. Zhu Yun had already foreseen that day. And he or she’d thought that with Golden Weirdo and Cake Lady’s fantastic personalities, the category advisor was in for a giant argument. However, opposite to her expectations, after no more than two days, this battle got here to an finish.

So, did Li Xun and the remaining begin attending the examine halls? Nope.

Was it as a result of the advisor couldn’t deal with them? That wasn’t it.

Fang Shumiao was the one to inform Zhu Yun about it.

This Li Xun actually did know easy methods to play methods.

When the advisor sought him out for a chat, Li Xun offered a collection of paperwork that he wished to undergo the division. Then, the following day, the division head personally authorised the formation of a freshman “digital applied sciences follow seminar.”

There have been three vital privileges allowed to these within the seminar—

1. It counts as an extracurricular.

2. It affords for extra course credit.

3. During the seminar, college students are exempt from morning and night examine corridor.

“….”

After Zhu Yun completed listening, she requested, “So this seminar will proceed all all through the day, for twenty-four hours, proper?”

“Yep! 24 hours! All day, continuous!” Fang Shumiao pat her thighs. “I assume this works. Every little thing’s taken care of! I gained’t have to fret about attendance data anymore!”

Whereas the seminar was shaped underneath the division head’s title, the previous man hardly ever made an look, merely leaving Li Xun in cost. Then again, Outdated Lin was very on this undertaking and have become an unofficial advisor, stopping over on the base every time he had time.

When this matter was made public, all the division was in an uproar.

Gossip and rumors floated throughout, like snowflakes flying by way of the air, all revolving round one major theme. Everybody was making an attempt to guess at Li Xun’s household background.

Tales flooded in from all instructions, and Zhu Yun appeared to listen to a brand new model each day. Every model was so detailed and vivid, informed with such resoluteness, that she might consider every one among them.

The times handed on as such.

In the future, when Zhu Yun went handy in her task to Outdated Lin, she bumped into Li Xun, who was having a dialogue with the trainer. Outdated Lin had on a pair of glasses as he labored on Li Xun’s laptop computer. The strict look in his eyes made Zhu Yun cautious of taking one other step.

Lastly, they completed talking and Li Xun took his laptop computer and left. When he noticed Zhu Yun, he nodded to her and stated casually, “Hey, class rep.”

“….”

Zhu Yun put her task on Outdated Lin’s desk. He was ingesting his tea with a smile on his face, seemingly in a fantastic temper.

A passing trainer joked to Outdated Lin, “That scholar of yours positive has a persona.”

Outdated Lin laughed.

The opposite teached added, “There are a whole lot of rumors.”

Outdated Lin stated, “That’s nonsense! Let me let you know—”

The opposite trainer’s telephone rang, so that they waved goodbye and turned to take their name.

Outdated Lin then turned to Zhu Yun and promptly continued, “I’m telling you—You guys will see sooner or later.”

….

?

Zhu Yun stood nonetheless for a number of seconds.

Why don’t you simply say what you already know now?

However then Outdated Lin began speaking concerning the homework, in order that subject got here to an finish.

One week later, the scenario across the seminar calmed, however Li Xun’s easy title appeared to have left an impression in many individuals’s minds. When his seniors spoke of him, they had been equivocal. When his dormmates spoke of him, they had been evasive.

Li Xun was nonetheless the identical as earlier than although. Skipping morning examine corridor, typing out his code on the quickest tempo, napping within the afternoon, all the time showing with a golden head that appeared like weeds.
