Chapter 1123: Shen Ran, the Poor Student
Editor: Henyee Translations
Shen Ran’s words were unanimously agreed by Feng Jue and the others.
Even someone as quiet as Gu Jin nodded. “It’s quite fun.”
Shen Ran smiled and said, “You guys are pretty good at playing. And Gu Jin, you’re the best girl I’ve ever seen in gaming—you’re amazing! I just don’t know who’s better. Let’s compete at the internet café another day.”
“Internet café?”
Shen Ran opened a whole new world for Gu Jin and the others.
“That’s right! Internet cafés are filled with computers. This game is way more fun on computers! My family used to have computers, but the fire destroyed them.”
At that moment, Gu Yang appeared beside them with her hands behind her back and asked calmly, “What are you guys doing?”
It was Gu Ying’s turn to play, and when he heard her voice, his hand trembled, causing the game character to die.
Everyone felt a twinge of guilt for being caught skipping class and playing games.
Gu Yang fixed them with a serious expression and asked, “Why did you skip class?”
Gu Jin felt it was important to maintain her dignity as an older sister in front of her younger sister. She raised her chin and declared, “I’m done learning.”
Feng Jue chimed in obediently, “Sister, I’m done learning too. I want to learn something different.”
Gu Yang recognized that both of them were geniuses and saw no need to waste time on those classes, so she waved her hand, signaling them to move aside.
Turning her attention to Gu Ying and Cao Cuo, she asked, “What about you guys?”
Cao Cuo replied, “I’m done learning.”
Gu Ying added, “Me too. I’ve finished my homework.”
Alright, while these two may not be as exceptional as the first two, they were still top students—Cao Cuo was naturally talented, and Gu Ying was incredibly hardworking.
Finally, Gu Yang turned to Shen Ran and smiled. “You’re done learning too, right?”
Shen Ran shook his head. “No.”@@novelbin@@
Gu Yang’s smile widened. “Then go copy the book.”
Shen Ran pointed to a group in the corner. “What about them?”
Feng Jue, Gu Jin, Cao Cuo, and Gu Ying all looked up at the sky, seemingly mesmerized. Ah, the sky was so blue.
Gu Yang pressed, “Are you done learning?”
Shen Ran fell silent.
Gu Yang said, “Then why aren’t you going? You’re not allowed to play with your phone until you finish copying a hundred ancient poems. You still dare to skip class before you’re done learning.”
Shen Ran felt like crying.
They had all agreed to skip class together, but in the end, he was the only one facing punishment. He had thought everyone was progressing at the same pace, but it turned out they were all top students while he was the only one lagging behind.
Suddenly, Shen Ran felt a spark of motivation to learn.
From that day on, Feng Jue and Gu Jin seemed addicted to gaming and were eager to visit the internet café.
Gu Yang understood that she couldn’t be too strict with them, so she planned a trip to the internet café in the nearby city, where security was better.
The mention of the internet café ignited Shen Ran’s enthusiasm. He eagerly recommended it to Gu Yang and offered to lead the way.
Although Shen Ran struggled academically, he was exceptionally talented in gaming. He often boasted that his father had initially planned to send him to an eSports club to pursue a career in competitive gaming.
During this period of time in the orphanage, he was defeated by Gu Yang’s group of top students.
Now that he had arrived at the internet cafe, it was finally his turn.
However, what Shen Ran had imagined—everyone playing games together—didn’t happen.
Gu Yang did take them to the internet café, but in the end, she was teaching them how to program.
Shen Ran was dumbfounded. “What is this?”
Gu Ying and Cao Cuo felt a bit dizzy as well.
On the other hand, Gu Jin and Feng Jue were engrossed in the game, but suddenly they found the game less appealing.
Gu Yang smiled and said, “Didn’t you want to learn something different? I’ll start with C programming.”
Gu Jin and Feng Jue quickly pulled up stools and sat on either side of Gu Yang.
Seeing their seriousness, Gu Ying and Cao Cuo listened attentively to Gu Yang’s lecture.
Gu Yang started from the basics, which the others accepted well.
Only Shen Ran was left confused. “What’s going on?”
When he noticed the other four were following along, he felt even more bewildered. “Wait, you all understand this?”
Gu Jin, fascinated, ignored Shen Ran and asked Gu Yang, “And then?”
Feng Jue glanced over and nodded at Shen Ran, as if to reassure him.
Although Gu Ying and Cao Cuo were a little lost, they didn’t want to admit it since the others seemed to grasp the material.
Cao Cuo’s autism had been cured, but Shen Ran struggled a bit with social cues.
What do you think?
