When they returned to the classroom, there weren't many people inside. A few students sat scattered around, chatting at their desks. Seeing Chi Yue and the other three, they raised their hands in friendly greeting.
Back at his seat, Chi Yue sorted the new textbooks he had collected and tucked them into his desk one by one. "This second semester will go by fast. Where are you planning to apply?"
"Do you even have to ask? Q University, obviously! Uncle Ren teaches there. When we're free, we can hang out together and go tinker with whatever he's researching." Jiang Shiyi formed finger guns with both hands and aimed them at Chi Yue. "Pew pew-"

Shen Tinglan took a box of cut fruit out of her desk and set it between them. "Exactly. I want to go to Q University too. I like Uncle Ren too."
"Uncle Ren looks so sweet. When he goes out with us, everyone thinks he's our older brother." Zhou Wanyu opened her mouth without hesitation, letting Shen Tinglan feed her.
"Aren't you afraid Uncle Gu will chase you away? After all these years, haven't you noticed how possessive he is of Uncle Ren?" Chi Yue picked up a cherry and popped it into his mouth.
Jiang Shiyi leaned back and rocked in his chair, looking utterly unconcerned. "So what? We're kids. What can Uncle Gu do to us? It's not like he can chase us around with a scalpel, right?"
The four chatted leisurely until the bell rang for the rest period. Only then did Chi Yue stretch. "All right, time to sleep. We can keep talking when we get home tonight."
Jiang Shiyi said, "Why tonight? It's not like we don't have a long break this afternoon."
The school didn't force students to nap
