Chapter 1248 God is always lonely

Well, to Liu Ruyan, Miss Yuan, Zhao Yun and others, this Burning Technique is like a joke, but to Lin Mo and others, it's really valuable information.

There's no other reason than that they actually did this when they took the college entrance exam back then, especially when it came to the math exam where they brought a protractor – it was really useful!

Since I don't know the answer anyway, I can use a protractor to measure it, and there's a certain probability that I can guess it correctly, especially for multiple-choice questions, where the accuracy rate can increase significantly.

"Isn't this cheating?" Liu Ruyan whispered to him from the other side.

Hearing this, Lin Mo rolled his eyes at her and said speechlessly, "Do you think everyone is a top student like you? This is the last resort for us average and poor students to change our fate. It's no exaggeration to say that it's a secret weapon!"

Our teacher was alright back then; on the last day of the college entrance exam, he actually handed me this "Burning Incantation" technique. I have to say it benefited me immensely; otherwise, I probably wouldn't have even gotten into a second-tier university!

It has to be said that Lin Mo's high school grades were not ideal.

He hovered between the cutoff scores for junior college and second-tier universities. Fortunately, on the day of the college entrance examination, he relied on the "Burning Technique" that his teacher taught him at the last minute, which helped him achieve a score just a few points above the second-tier university cutoff. And that's how he ended up here.

Of course, it wasn't just him; most of his classmates got the same score, and even if some did, it wouldn't be by much. The guy with the best college entrance exam score in their dorm was actually Lao Zhao, who scored 25 points above the second-tier university cutoff. The other three students had similar scores.

You could even say that they all performed exceptionally well on the day of the college entrance exam, which is why they got into second-tier universities. Only Director Wang's grades should have guaranteed him a second-tier university admission, and he even underperformed on the day of the exam.

It's quite amazing that among the four people in the dormitory, it was Wang, who seemed the most simple-minded, who was the best at studying. The other three seemed very shrewd, but their studies were actually just average.

Hearing this, Liu Ruyan covered her mouth and chuckled, "Hehehe, I didn't expect him to be such a poor student!"

"Exactly, is the college entrance exam really that difficult for you? It's not like anyone can get into a top university. I even handed in my paper early! I never expected you to resort to such underhanded methods."

"Liu Ruyan, why don't you find someone else? Don't affect the intelligence of the next generation!" Miss Yuan said disdainfully.

Zhao Yun smiled slightly. She wasn't that venomous. Although her college entrance exam results were quite good, she could still understand the thoughts of those students with average grades.

That's right. Don't let Miss Yuan's abstract appearance fool you; she attended a top-tier university, and a key one at that.

Abstract thinking and learning are not related to good or bad. Miss Yuan is naturally smart, and her family is well-off. For example, in English, most people learn English by rote memorization, but Miss Yuan's English was improved through one-on-one tutoring with a foreign teacher.

Not only did she excel in written exams, but her spoken English was also quite impressive. She is currently living and communicating normally abroad, but she doesn't have the bad habit of mixing English and Chinese like some overseas returnees.

Simply put, she's a top student hidden behind an abstract mask. Of course, her academic excellence isn't purely due to talent, but rather a result of having abundant resources and some innate talent combined.

Lin Mo naturally knew some of it, because Miss Yuan had mentioned her school days before. He rolled his eyes at her and said, "Come on, we don't have Miss Yuan's conditions, which allow foreign teachers to live in our homes and even subject teachers to provide one-on-one tutoring."

My learning ability is only average, and that's already my limit, okay? Besides, what does my poor high school grades have to do with my intelligence?

"Tch~ Superpowers are a kind of talent too, okay!" Miss Yuan said smugly.

Miss Yuan's advantage is that she never denies that she is a second-generation rich kid and that she got many things because of her family's conditions. In her opinion, the ability to be born into a wealthy family is also a kind of ability. I'm just lucky, so what?

“Then our ‘Burning Technique’ is also a righteous path, after all, existence is its own justification!” Lin Mo said with a smile.

Squad leader He Xiaoyue, Director Wang, and even Zhang Wei, who was standing next to her, all agreed with this, since they had all been through the same thing.

The Sichuan girl casually took a picture, didn't edit it, and updated it directly. After all, tomorrow is the college entrance examination, and topics about the college entrance examination have been hot these days. Soon, the data of her video began to rise sharply.

[Holy crap, family! Thank you Li Shiya for sending the Burning Technique, I'll try it out tomorrow!]

[Damn it, I just beat up our homeroom teacher, and he still won't admit he has the Burning Technique!]

[Haha, our teacher taught that too!]

How did you know I have my college entrance exam tomorrow? This is like a godsend!

[Hello, 110? Someone is illegally publishing the Burning Technique here.]

[Old man, finally you've uttered some useful information! I'm a terrible student, but I can attest that I genuinely understood this!]

Don't worry, if I get arrested, I'll definitely give your name to the police!

Many people felt that what the Sichuan girl said made sense, so they quietly prepared all the necessary tools and even studied them word by word. Some people just read it for fun, as it could at least alleviate their tension for tomorrow's college entrance examination.

The Sichuan girl looked at her masterpiece and nodded in satisfaction, then said with some regret, "Alas, it's too short; there's no time to insert commercials. What a pity!"

Upon hearing this, everyone rolled their eyes in unison. "Are you crazy for making money?"

However, the atmosphere was quite cheerful. By the end, if they hadn't stopped her, the girl from Sichuan would have wanted to start a live stream.

Fortunately, none of them had drunk too much. They knew there were too many ordinary people around, so they were willing to do their own live streams at home. As long as he didn't do a striptease, he probably wouldn't get banned.

After dinner, everyone played cards and billiards – a complete package deal. It was just a bit of a shame that Miss Yuan's place didn't have karaoke equipment.

Of course, even if they wanted to, they couldn't sing. After all, it needed to be quiet tonight so the students taking the college entrance exam could get some rest. Although the soundproofing at Miss Yuan's place was good, if the noise was too loud, they might get in trouble. While Miss Yuan, Liu Ruyan, Zhao Yun, and He Xiaoyue were playing mahjong, and the class monitor was taking Zhang Xiaoli to make tea, the group played billiards.

Zhang Wei suddenly gathered the group together and whispered, "Brothers, I've run into a bit of trouble lately!"

"Oh? Tell me, what's the problem?" the Sichuan girl asked after scoring a goal.

The others listened attentively, and even Old Zhao joined in.

"Hey, Xiaoli and I are together now, but lately I've found that our relationship isn't progressing much. What should we do, guys? I need your help!" Zhang Wei whispered.

Upon hearing this, the group looked puzzled.

“No, she’s already agreed to be with you. You two are still going to and from get off work together, holding hands, eating out together. When the time is right, you can move in together. It’ll save you money!” Lin Mo said matter-of-factly.

Zhang Wei: "That's where we get stuck. We can hold hands, go on dates, go to and from get off work, and eat without any problems, but we just can't do anything else."

I don't know how to tell her, what should I do!

Upon hearing this, Director Wang said, "You have to discuss this with her. Try chatting on your phone to see if she objects!"

"Test the waters with a phone chat? How can we test the waters like that? We can't just say it directly!" Zhang Wei said helplessly.

Sichuan Girl: "Simple, just say your cat can do backflips!"

Zhang Wei: "I don't own a cat!"

Four people:

Lin Mo: "Are you crazy? What does it matter whether you have a cat or not? The point is, you just need to say you have a cat!"

“Isn’t this just a scam?” Zhang Wei said.

Hearing this, the four of them gritted their teeth. Then, the Sichuan girl couldn't help but say, "Are you stupid? How can you call it lying between lovers? Besides, she's not stupid. As long as she comes, she'll know exactly what's going on. Wait, what do you guys usually talk about on your phones?"

Zhang Wei thought about it for a moment, then took out his phone and showed it to the others. Upon seeing this, the four of them gathered around and looked through the chat history between the two.

It was bland and tasteless, nothing more than asking "Have you eaten?", "Go to bed early?", "Good night" and "Good morning," like a daily check-in.

It wasn't until the group looked through their chat history from a few days ago that they found out.

[Zhang Xiaoli: Are you coming to my place tonight? My roommate left!]

[Zhang Wei: Sis, I may be poor, but I really can't do this kind of vigil.]

[Zhang Xiaoli: Apologize to me!]

[Zhang Wei: I'm sorry!]

[Zhang Xiaoli: Do you know what makes me angry?]

[Zhang Wei: Around 7:42 PM!]

Zhang Xiaoli: .

After reading the chat log, the four of them remained silent for a long time. Even the single girl from Sichuan was clenching her fists.

Seeing this, Old Zhao couldn't help but sigh, "Brother, how long have you been alone?"

Zhang Wei: "I can't remember. There's nothing I can do. God is always alone!"

Everyone:

The four exchanged glances and realized there was no way to save this person. What else could they say? Gods are always alone. If they helped him, wouldn't that be hindering his path to godhood?

Then the four of them fell silent. Chuanmei and Wang Chu even turned around and went to play pool.

Because they had the college entrance exam the next day, the group didn't stay out very late. Before leaving, Miss Yuan prepared a small gift for each of them—a small gold ornament—which made them very happy. They never expected to receive a gift while attending someone else's birthday party.

Old Zhao didn't go back to his dorm; he's spending the night at Chuanmei's place.

As Lin Mo was leaving, he glared at Zhang Wei with annoyance. Seeing this, Liu Ruyan couldn't help but ask curiously, "What did he do to you?"

Lin Mo: "Don't mention him, he wants to become a god!"

Liu Ruyan: ? ? ?
