Class ended at 11:30, and it was still too early to go home. Bai Ningning found a familiar lounge, sat down, and looked at her phone.
As a new era intellectual, she understood the importance of learning. So, when the doctor told her to improve her communication skills, Bai Ningning quickly thought of learning advanced knowledge.
Sure enough, she directly bought an electronic version of "How to Communicate with High Emotional Intelligence in Life" online.
The book taught many small tips for conversing with others, and there was one piece of knowledge that Bai Ningning had just practiced.
The book said that when describing something, one must consider the other person's understanding of the matter, whether they are in the same circle, their level of acceptance, and their views. This would make the other person feel that you are on the same wavelength, making the conversation smooth and easy.
Just then, Qin Xin sent a message.
[Black Long Socks]: Ningning, what time does school end this afternoon? Shall we walk together?
After some hesitation and entanglement, Bai Ningning changed Qin Xin's contact name to this. If only life were as beautiful as the first meeting, the memory of their first encounter was too wonderful.
Bai Ningning switched windows, opened that electronic book, and flipped to the page she had marked.
"When you describe something, consider the other person's understanding of the matter, whether they are in the same circle, their level of acceptance, and their views. This will make the other person feel that you are on the same path, making the conversation smooth and easy." — That's what the book said.
In practice, just like today, Bai Ningning skipped class to go home in the afternoon. If the older sister had a request, it might require some fun under the sheets.
Or maybe several times.
When she spoke to President Lingyin earlier, Bai Ningning considered that the other party was knowledgeable, a seasoned anime fan, and had even done things like "forcing girls to dance," so she expressed it in the most straightforward way.
But what about Qin Xin? In Bai Ningning's heart, Qin Xin was a pure and studious younger sister with normal sexual orientation.
So, she typed:
[Ningning doesn't know]: I'm going home early to work.
When facing a younger sister who didn't understand, she had to be as tactful as possible, but it was also the truth. Going home to have fun with the older sister was Bai Ningning's work. The duration was unknown, but the total pay was 2.5 million.
Putting down her phone, Bai Ningning stretched comfortably, got up, and walked outside the school.
The first high emotional intelligence conversation practice was successfully completed. Although I'm not very good at chatting, I'm willing to learn!
The harder you work, the luckier you get; those who love to learn won't have bad luck!
......
[Ningning doesn't know]: I'm going home early to work.
Qin Xin looked at the reply on her phone, her heart aching.
She knew what the older sister's work was; it was just that the older sister didn't know she knew, thinking it was a euphemistic way of saying it.
But she knew the older sister didn't know she knew, and the gentle euphemism became a dull knife, stabbing into her heart, painful.
"Qin Xin, what's wrong?" a female classmate next to her asked, "You became strange after receiving a message."
The classmate was her former roommate; although they no longer lived in the dorm, they were still the most familiar among classmates.
"I'm fine," Qin Xin shook her head, hiding her pale face, "The sun was too strong at noon, and I felt a bit dizzy."
"Is... is that so?"
......
Bai Ningning returned home to Shuiyue Tingyuan and found that Qin Yue was already up, sitting on the sofa watching TV.
"What are you watching?" she asked curiously. "I've seen you watching this for days now."
Qin Yue glanced at her lightly and said, "A suspenseful dark crime drama, a Korean drama."
Bai Ningning's delicate body trembled slightly, thinking to herself that as expected of an older sister, even watching a Korean drama is different from other girls.
The girl sat down beside her, and Qin Yue looked at her with a hint of curiosity, "Why are you back so early today? No afternoon classes?"
She had checked the class schedule in the morning, and Bai Ningning only had no classes on Wednesday and Friday afternoons.
"Doesn't matter...," Bai Ningning replied, "The teacher doesn't take attendance."
Qin Yue smiled, "Aren't you afraid of failing the final exam?"
She remembered that last year, when Bai Ningning was in a relationship, at the end of the semester, Bai Ningning specifically said she was having a hard time with exams and needed to study hard for a while, so she couldn't accompany her.
At that time, Qin Yue had been quite eager to help her find a tutor, but was turned down.
"Heh," Bai Ningning suddenly sneered, "Final exams."
Qin Yue raised an eyebrow, "What are you laughing about?"
"Just final exams, no need to care," Bai Ningning crossed her arms over her chest, proudly like her big pillow, "Even if I don't attend classes for a whole semester, I can still score at least eighty points on the final exam with just one hour of review."
Sorry, but being reborn in college as a sophomore makes one this confident.
Qin Yue was slightly taken aback, then started to laugh coldly.
"So, you're saying you're a top student?" she asked.
"I can't say anything else," Bai Ningning lifted her swan-like neck, proud as a large-breasted white swan, "At least in four years of college, I won't have any problems with studying."
"Alright then, please explain this to me, Miss Bai," Qin Yue stood up and faced her, looking at her with a dark expression, "Last semester's finals, you told me you needed to find time to study for the exam, so you couldn't go on a date with me. Where did you actually go?"
Oh, this is a thing?
Bai Ningning's mind went blank for a moment, and fragmented memories surfaced.
"I'm sorry, Yueyue, I have finals coming up. If I don't pass, I'll have to retake the course next year. So, I need to focus on studying and can't accompany you."
"Studying? That was just an excuse I casually made up. Let's go sing karaoke tonight."
The first sentence was said to Qin Yue, and the second was to a classmate. In short, Bai Ningning understood that there was indeed such a thing.
And she really did take the opportunity to go have fun with someone else!
Bai Ningning thought for a moment, relaxed her body in front of Qin Yue, and said with a cold expression, "This time it's indeed my fault, do as you wish."
Wow, the way she apologized sounded like she was bestowing a favor. If Qin Yue hadn't already gotten used to it and had some resistance, she would have exploded with anger.
But she just took a few deep breaths, glared at Bai Ningning fiercely, and sat back down on the sofa.
"Remember this, I'll settle the score with you in a few days."
Qin Yue thought it through clearly; a whole morning was enough for the little green tea's water dragon spirit to work its magic and restore her state. It wouldn't be wise to start a fight now; she would wait until she could unleash all her skills in one go.
......
On a leisurely and pleasant afternoon, Tian Ge hurried over to find the fiery girl after preparing two cups of iced red tea.
"Lingyin, I'm here," he asked cautiously, "What do you want to consult me about?"
Lingyin looked around, and seeing no one else, she relaxed a bit: "Let me ask you, do you understand about girls and girls... those things?"
Tian Ge was dumbfounded: "But Lingyin, aren't you with Sister... I mean..."
Wait, could it be that Lingyin actually has no concept of this?
"What are you talking about?" Lingyin said, a bit embarrassed and impatient, "If you understand, just say so. If you don't, recommend someone who does."
Tian Ge wiped his cold sweat: "Lingyin, if I say I don't understand, you definitely won't believe me. But it's really not appropriate for me to talk about those things. How about this, I'll recommend a few websites and forums to you."
