Rebirth: Regaining Joyful Moments-Chapter 596 - 598: Heart-to-Heart Connection

The entire competition was divided into two stages.

The first stage was a written exam, where all the registered students were given the same test paper, and the top one hundred students would advance to the second stage, the oral exam.

"I won’t be eliminated in the first round, will I?" Ding Guo anxiously bit her fingernails, worrying about various things even before the test had begun.

"I have the worst grades, if anyone’s getting cut, it’s me."

Having spent half a year with the others, Liao Jinling had integrated herself into the dormitory life. As soon as she spoke up, she considerably comforted Ding Guo by saying, "Jinling, you never know, we might all get eliminated."

Liao Jinling: "..."

"No way, we listen to the radio all the time, speak in English in the dorm, and we use every opportunity to memorize vocabulary. We can all make it to the finals."

No sooner had Xu Nianhua finished speaking than Liao Jinling, as if seeing a savior, held Xu Nianhua’s hand and said enthusiastically, "If Nianhua says I can make it, then I definitely can."

The nervousness at the bottom of Liao Jinling’s heart slowly dissipated, and the only thing on her mind was not to hold back Dorm 302.

"I will absolutely not hold back the dorm."

With the appearance of a martyr, Ding Guo made the others in the dormitory laugh.

On the morning of the first day, the nerve-wracking written exam was over.

The one who was most worried initially, Ding Guo, had let loose after the exam, buying a bunch of snacks to enjoy in the dorm, munching on sunflower seeds and listening to the radio. It couldn’t have been more comfortable.

On the other hand, Chang Hui and Liao Jinling, who hadn’t been as worried before, were now anxious about their results.

This lasted until the day the rankings were announced. freёnovelkiss-com

Xu Nianhua’s name, unsurprisingly, was at the very top. The second name was Shen Qichen, and the third was Xiang Yifan, followed by Zhou Wanwan from Dorm 302 in fourth place.

"I’m ranked 88th," exclaimed Ding Guo excitedly when she saw her name.

Chang Hui and Liao Jinling were both ranked in the seventies, and Fei Jiayi was in the twenties. With a total of six people in the dorm, everyone had passed the first round of the written exam.

That evening, the people of Dorm 302 happily had a big meal at a nearby restaurant.

Seeing their happiness, Xu Nianhua really didn’t have the heart to dampen their spirits. The laughter and noise gave her a sense of disoriented bliss.

University classmates—that was something she couldn’t even dare to dream of before.

Xu Nianhua sipped her orange soda, suddenly feeling a strong desire to see Pei Yicheng.

"You, what are you doing here?"

Xu Nianhua still held the cold orange soda in her hand; she blinked, thinking she was seeing things.

"Nianhua, we’ll head back to the dorm first," Ding Guo signaled to her with a wink and a nudge.

Fei Jiayi whispered in her ear, "Don’t come back too early."

Xu Nianhua: "..."

The dorm-mates scattered, and suddenly it was just her and Pei Yicheng left.

As the weather grew hotter, Pei Yicheng wore only a shirt and black trousers, which highlighted his tall and slender figure. The dim streetlights cast a filter over his handsome features.

Xu Nianhua could clearly hear the thunderous beats of her heart within her chest.

"I heard you got first place in the written exam, so I came to see you," said Pei Yicheng in a low voice, his gaze warm and tender as it rested on her.

"Thank you."

Xu Nianhua smiled with her lips pursed, wondering if they could be considered kindred spirits?

Had he appeared just as she wished to see him?

While Xu Nianhua was still dazed, Pei Yicheng suddenly took out a small box and presented it to her, startling her.

The little red square box—this...
