Chapter 361: The Feeling of Heart

Chapter 361

After the beginning of autumn, there were several consecutive days of scorching heat, with temperatures reaching 33 degrees Celsius.

Xiao Qi passed the fourth subject of her exams and obtained her driver's license.

She then drove the car she had bought back to school.

It was a sleek black BMW 5 Series, and it looked very beautiful with its shiny paint. It gave the impression of being expensive.

However, Xiao Qi didn't feel as excited as she had imagined. In just a few months, her mindset seemed to have changed quite a bit.

When she bought the car, she was full of confidence and didn't think much about it. She just thought, "I want to buy a good car, a BMW."

But once she actually started driving it, Xiao Qi realized that she had been naive. She was still a student, and buying a car didn't hold much meaning for her, nor could she drive it much.

At that time, she had just arrived in the city, away from her parents and the familiar city she grew up in. She had money and felt inflated, so she wanted to buy a car.

Now that she has seen more, she has realized that even a van driven by a housekeeper from someone's home is several times more expensive than her BMW. Xiao Qi's enthusiasm for cars has diminished, and she has become calm and numb.

She even feels a bit ashamed that she wasted money and driving a BMW gives off a feeling of being nouveau riche, exposing her inner lack of sophistication.

It's unnecessary.

Parking is not convenient on campus. She can't drive into the school premises, and the student area is quite chaotic. In the end, she ended up parking the car at Mrs. Su's villa, where there was a designated parking spot.

Su Li's sports car was also parked there.

Su Li had been scolded by her aunt several times for buying a sports car, but now seeing her own sports car parked next to the class monitor's car, she felt that all the scolding was worth it and she was so happy. Fôllôw new stories at novelhall.com

However, studying French together was not as enjoyable.

She mainly studied French with the class monitor, and she felt like she was intellectually challenged. They started learning at the same time, but she had more experience abroad and spent more time with her aunt, yet their progress was vastly different.

The class monitor was already able to communicate in simple French, while Xiao Qi was still learning the pronunciation...

The gap between people is really unfriendly.

Xiao Qi is now self-studying Japanese and Korean.

Spanish is an elective course on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.

For Portuguese, she found a foreign teacher recommended by Aizhen. She arranged two classes on Friday afternoons and paid 800 yuan for the two classes.

The Portuguese foreign teacher, Maken, is a man in his thirties with a head full of dirty braids. He looks greasy and likes to joke around. He is very enthusiastic. When he first taught Xiao Qi, he liked to get close to her. But when she accidentally broke a brick in her bag, he became much more obedient and taught Xiao Qi without any hint of joking. After the lesson, he collected the money and left.

Xiao Qi realized that the brick was really useful.

Because she had to go to the new area, this foreign teacher opened a café, so Xiao Qi picked up a brick on the side of the road on her way in.

Xiao Qi wondered if she could bring a brick when she travels abroad.

Anyway, she is strong and carrying a brick in her bag doesn't feel heavy.

Compared to learning taekwondo, bringing a brick seems to offer much better value for money.

When Maken returned, he specifically mentioned this incident to Aizhen, explaining that he was only joking. However, to his surprise, the young girl took out a brick from her bag and smashed it right in front of him, scaring him to death.

Aizhen: ... serves you right.

In addition to language learning, there are new courses in the second and third years of college. The fourth year usually involves internships and graduation projects.

And he doesn't.

He excels at indulging in food, drink, and entertainment, but he never considers putting effort into studying.

Now he's starting to think about working hard and realizes that studying can be really tiring.

He studies until two in the morning every day, fearing that he might disturb his roommate. Because of this, he moved to a different dormitory.

Yet, he can barely reach a level that is just enough to pass the makeup exams, and he already feels incredibly proud of himself.

Li Weijin also noticed that when he was a child, people used to praise him for being smart, but it was only because he didn't work hard enough to achieve good grades. It was probably just a kind lie... He's not really smart.

Recently, he asked his butler to buy him anti-hair loss shampoo... but it doesn't seem to be effective.

In reality, Li Weijin is somewhat concerned about his appearance.

Seeing how he dresses up every day, it's clear he's not someone who is superficially concerned with his looks. He pays attention to every detail from head to toe.

When it comes to dressing up, Li Weijin may have reached the level of a master. It comes naturally to him, and every day he effortlessly puts together stylish outfits, becoming the most handsome guy on the block.

At the crossroads of his life at eighteen, he encounters the first challenge.

He feels like he's facing a problem that all guys encounter: the girl he likes only loves (studying/money). In order to be worthy of the girl he likes, he has to work hard (in studying/making money).

But is studying/making money really that difficult? Should he follow the path of those losers and say that she only loves the rich and is materialistic? Does he not like her anymore?

He can't even come up with this reasoning. He can't blame Xiao Qi for being too studious and excellent, so he doesn't like her anymore.

Li Weijin, who loses a handful of hair every day due to studying too hard, finally makes an important decision. He decides to give up...

He gives up his own hair.

He shaves his head.

With a bald head, he feels a little cool but looks strange when he sees himself in the mirror.

He wears a hat and goes to class.

Today is Tuesday, with an elective course on Spanish in the evening.

Li Weijin arrives early, wearing a hat.

When Xiao Qi arrives and sees him wearing a hat, she doesn't find it strange. For a guy like Li Weijin, who loves to dress up, a hat is just an accessory. It looks good, so it's not surprising.

And Li Weijin attentively listens to two classes without speaking to Xiao Qi during the break.

Xiao Qi finds it a bit odd. Why is he so quiet today?

After school, she takes the initiative and says, "Class is over. Do you want to walk together?"

Li Weijin suddenly stands up, takes off his hat, revealing his bald head.

His eyes shimmer as he looks at Xiao Qi.

"I cut off all my hair, so you don't have to worry about my hair falling out while studying hard. No hair, no worries. I will work hard to keep up with your progress and graduate early with you for the postgraduate entrance examination... Will I look ugly?"

Xiao Qi: ...

Seeing the bald boy in front of her, with innocent and clean eyes, devoid of hair and the previous unruly aura, he appeared even cleaner. He resembled a beautiful little monk who had come out of the deep mountains. Her heart raced faster and faster, while her breathing became slightly delayed and stagnant. Her entire soul was trembling, as if she were intoxicated inside a wine jar.

Oh no, it's the feeling of being smitten.
