Free Web NovelChapter 222: Chapter 180: The student who finished the College Entrance Examination early_2
This time, it was Lin Xiaoqing’s turn.
Lin Xiaoqing hadn’t planned to prepare a yearbook, but upon seeing that all the other girls had one and many of the boys were buying them, she decided to follow the crowd. She bought one and asked Zhao Yi to sign the first page.
Zhao Yi cheekily grumbled, "Qingqing, I live next to you. If you want to get in touch with me, just come over!"
"Twenty-four hours a day, at your service!" he added.
Lin Xiaoqing glared at him and said, "You signed Sun Jiali’s and Linlin’s, but refuse to sign mine?"
"...Fine!"
Zhao Yi felt rather helpless, but he took the yearbook and began filling it out with care.
Lin Xiaoqing had not requested anything specific for the final entry, which made Zhao Yi feel relieved. After contemplating for quite a bit, though, he realized that he didn’t really know what to write.
It seems it’s not always good to have free rein, after all!
Zhao Yi looked up at Lin Xiaoqing and decided to start sketching her from behind with a pencil, gradually drawing her out bit by bit.
The upturned braid, her fair neck.
And... yes!
Let’s add an imaginary frontal view too.
Zhao Yi thought about Lin Xiaoqing’s features, contemplating what kind of sketch he should create. Just as he was about to continue sketching, he suddenly stopped. His expression turned serious and surprised. He realized...
...that he could use the "Connection Law"?
The "Connection Law"!
Without thinking, Zhao Yi activated it. Immediately, his mind was filled with detailed instructions on how to draw Lin Xiaoqing.
Following the thoughts in his mind, he swiftly captured her features on paper.
Five minutes later, the sketch in his mind was on paper — a spitting image of Lin Xiaoqing, her shy anger visible at first glance.
Zhao Yi stared at the sketch in surprise. He never imagined that the "Connection Law" could be used in sketching!
Would he become a sketching master in the future?
Maybe he could accomplish calligraphy as well, becoming a calligraphy master? When it comes to things like imitating calligraphy copybooks, would he be a professional? freewebnovel.cσ๓
Zhao Yi checked his energy level and found that the sketch had consumed about five energy points. The cost was not high.
Of course, this also implied that completing a masterpiece would certainly require a large amount of energy. The difference was that the composition of a painting was visible, and didn’t have to be completed all at once. Slowly utilizing the "Connection Law" to gradually complete various parts would be able to depict a complex scene, provided that the scene was clearly conceived in the mind.
While Zhao Yi was still lost in thought, the end-of-class bell rang.
Lin Xiaoqing turned her head and instantly saw the sketch in the yearbook. She gasped in surprise, "Isn’t this me?"
"Yes, it is!"
"Did you draw it?"
"Who else could it be?"
Lin Xiaoqing studied the sketch carefully and frowned, "Why did you draw me looking angry?"
Zhao Yi hesitated before admitting that he had a deep impression of Lin Xiaoqing’s expression when angry, tinged with a hint of shyness.
It was... rather adorable!
Of course, he couldn’t say that out loud.
He made up an excuse, "I’m not sure, it just came out like this while I was drawing! Probably because of my level of skill!"
"Hmph!"
Lin Xiaoqing looked up at Zhao Yi, suddenly leaned towards him and lightly kissed his cheek. Afterwards, she quickly turned back and sat properly in her seat.
Zhao Yi was stunned.
He had never seen Lin Xiaoqing behave so warmly to him, especially not in the classroom. Did she just... kiss him?
"I kindly sketched a portrait for you, not only did you not pay, but you took advantage of me!" Zhao Yi complained indignantly.
Lin Xiaoqing, whose face was flushed, heard the noise behind her and exploded in anger. She turned her head with a threatening glare, then swung a kick under the table, scraping Zhao Yi’s foot.
"Hiss~~"
"Hmph!"
Lin Xiaoqing positioned herself facing the front as though she was satisfied. She was unable to hide a smile, feeling her heart fill with joy and happiness.
Zhao Yi had done such a good job sketching her. Why?
He must think about her all the time!
Thinking about her night and day, pondering, losing sleep, seeing only her when he closed his eyes... That’s why he could sketch her as perfectly as a photograph.
Perhaps he had been practicing for quite a while?
Just to give her a surprise, right?
...
The afternoon was essentially a free period.
Teacher Sun came into the classroom and distributed the Admission Tickets, discussing strictly about the College Entrance Examination. The Thirteenth High School had arranged for a bus to transport students who were unlucky to have farther exam centers. They could take the bus in the morning.
The other students were on their own.
Although Zhengyang Urban Area was both big and small, it would take about twenty minutes to reach the furthest schools by bike. Many parents would send their children to the tests and those with special circumstances could tell the teacher.
That should be enough.
Afterwards, Teacher Sun began discussing plans for after the college entrance exam, including when to estimate scores and submit volunteer forms, and when the results would be released. He also provided emotional guidance for the students.
Of course, there was also the sentimental conversation about parting and reluctance to leave.
Then, the students were set free.
They took all of their books and belongings home that day. For many students, one person was not enough to carry everything. They needed their parents to come and help.
By the afternoon, the school was in a state of chaos, with people rushing everywhere.
In contrast, Zhao Yi was quite relaxed.
Sun Liang had moved his books days ago, giving them an extra pair of helping hands. Sun Liang helped Zhao Yi and Lin Xiaoqing move their things to the car. Once everything was packed, the three of them headed to the sports field to hang out.
