Jing University—School of Economics and Management teaching building,
The morning exam had ended, and the examination hall bell had long since rung.
Most people in the teaching building had already left.
"Are you really not coming to the cafeteria with us?"
At the entrance to a classroom, Gu Lin, a beautiful figure, was about to leave with Yu Qin and several other girls when she turned back for another look.
In the already empty classroom, the only person who had yet to leave looked up from her desk.
With short black hair falling to her shoulders, a quiet, delicate face, and a slender frame, the girl carried an air of simple cleanliness.
Her calmly lifted eyes were like a crystal-clear spring.
At a glance, one could see her independence and strength.
Fang Xiaoran shook her head. In response to Gu Lin's kind question, she merely spoke in a clear, calm voice:
"No need. I brought food with me. You guys go ahead."
"Alright, then we'll be going first."
"See you this afternoon, Xiao Ran."
Watching her former roommates leave with smiles and waves, the empty corridor suddenly fell silent.
Fang Xiaoran looked at the classroom, where she was now the only one left.
There was another exam in the afternoon, and she did not want to waste time going to the cafeteria.
She took out the lunch she had brought from The Cabin that morning—a homemade cake and a carton of milk.
As Fang Xiaoran slowly ate, her gaze returned to the textbook on the desk.
The textbook was filled with neat, elegant annotations, while the notebook beside it was packed with notes taken in class.
Although she had never missed a class and had long since reviewed the exam material, she still did not relax during this final stretch
