Chapter 561 - 580: Thinking the Seniors Were Here to Cause Trouble
After Teacher Ning dismissed the meeting, everyone started to head out.
Apparently, the circular building was designed with several exits, and multiple paths led outside.
Jiang Qiuqiu didn’t like crowds, so she planned to wait where she was and leave once the flow of people thinned out a bit.
But Michelle said, "The line for the Nutrient Liquid is probably long, so I’m heading out first."
"Meng Chun, do you want to come with me?"
Meng Chun made a small sound. She didn’t want to deal with the crowd either, but she glanced at Jiang Qiuqiu and Liu Tingting standing together, then at Michelle standing all by herself. She got to her feet. "I’ll go get some Nutrient Liquid with Michelle, too."
"Qiuqiu, Tingting, we’ll see you in a bit."
The two of them disappeared into the tide of people.
Liu Tingting looked at Jiang Qiuqiu. Jiang Qiuqiu glanced back at her. "What is it?"
"Nothing, I was just thinking... it’s brilliant how our school assigns four people to a dorm."
’It’s only the first or second day, and it feels like we’re already starting to split into factions.’
While the two of them were chatting, a large group of upperclassmen up ahead were also looking all around.
"Who was it that’s supposed to have super sharp eyes? The one with that ocular perception, who can see a hundred meters? Haven’t you spotted Juju yet? We had solid intel she’s in here."
"You f-ing look then... Shut up, let me focus."
"Someone ask that Tingting girl in the group chat where they are. We can’t let them leave the auditorium!"
Everyone @’d Liu Tingting, but she was talking with Qiuqiu. How could she possibly be looking at her terminal?
As time passed, the crowd gradually thinned. Just as the upperclassmen thought today’s trip was another bust, the one with the enhanced senses suddenly got excited. "I see her! I see her!"
"I see Juju!"
"Where? Where?"
"She’s sitting down, looks like she’s waiting for people to leave. Let’s go!"
Dozens of people moved over in a great throng.
A huge, delighted smile was plastered on everyone’s face. Well, duh. They were about to meet their goddess. How could they not be ecstatic?
They drew closer, bit by bit. Liu Tingting was the first to see them and tugged on Jiang Qiuqiu’s arm. Jiang Qiuqiu looked up, too.
Their eyes met, and a strange feeling welled up inside her.
Jiang Qiuqiu stood up, and the group in front of her hurried over.
Finally, after wandering all over campus and running back and forth several times, the fans from the Mecha Department were the first to meet their very own junior—Jiang Qiuqiu.
The atmosphere was electric. Several of the boys were so close to her that they couldn’t get their words out, just stuttering and stammering.
Jiang Qiuqiu quietly introduced herself amidst the crowd.
"It’s great to meet you all here at school."
"But you don’t have to be so formal," Jiang Qiuqiu said with a smile. "I’m not on my stream right now. You don’t have to call me Juju; you can just call me Qiuqiu."
"Here at school, I’m just a freshman in the Mecha Single Soldier System. You’re all my seniors, so I should be the one learning from you."
’Where you are determines who you are.’
Right now, Jiang Qiuqiu just wanted to be a student.
The conversation was a happy one. No one had even imagined that Qiuqiu would be so friendly and down-to-earth.
’A streamer with tens of billions of followers sounded so out of reach, but I never expected Qiuqiu to be so down-to-earth in person! She’s even cuter than she is in her videos!’
’I’m so in love! It’s so much easier to become a true fan when you meet them up close!’
The atmosphere grew even more enthusiastic.
By this time, the auditorium was almost completely empty, except for Huo Jia and Huo Deng, who were sitting diagonally across the room.
"Cousin, aren’t you leaving yet?"
Huo Deng waved his hand, only to realize his cousin was staring at the crowd on the other side of the room.
’Huh? Staring at crowds is supposed to be my thing,’ he thought. "What’s wrong? What are you looking at?"
"Why is that group of people surrounding two freshmen?"
"Huh? Let me see... Upperclassmen surrounding freshmen? Surrounding two girls?" Huo Deng paused for a moment. "Maybe one of the upperclassmen has a crush on one of the new girls and brought a few friends for moral support while he confesses?"
"He fell for her on the first day of school?"
"Love at first sight."
"..."
"This is coercion," Huo Jia said, shooting to his feet. "They’re ganging up on them."
He strode toward the crowd.
