Chapter 538: Chapter 538: Nickname Revealed
"Really?" Cao Na had heard people mention it, but she thought it was something some top students said casually. She didn’t know how seriously they read in places others couldn’t see.
Although she hadn’t known Gong Ruini for long, Cao Na just felt a sense of trust toward her.
Seeing Cao Na’s excited expression, Gong Ruini just wanted to say, girl, you’re not practicing high notes, there’s no need to suddenly raise your voice like that, you really almost scared me half to death.
"Yes, staring at a book all day won’t necessarily improve your grades. The point is to improve efficiency," Gong Ruini put down the travelogue in her hand, knowing that if she didn’t explain clearly, this girl wouldn’t let her go.
Especially with that shout of Cao Na’s, it had attracted the attention of many students in the class. Sure enough, Zhao Guangran’s displeased glance was among them.
Gong Ruini could imagine Zhao Guangran wishing to chop her up in his heart. For this, all she could say was sorry, this was really not intentional.
You’re doing it deliberately, deliberately, deliberately. Don’t you know it’s rare for me to be in the limelight? Why do you have to stir up trouble, Gong Ruini?
It’s one thing to stir things up, but why suppress him? It’s really too much.
Is this really a term classmates would use? Cao Na was truly bewildered. Clearly, she’s older than Gong Ruini, but why can’t she understand what she’s saying.
"What is efficiency?" Cao Na was puzzled in every way, and someone asked curiously.
Although everyone hadn’t interacted with Gong Ruini as much as with Zhao Guangran, seeing Gong Ruini smiling and answering Cao Na’s questions, they braced themselves and asked.
"Yes, efficiency is about studying earnestly when it’s time to study and relaxing completely when it’s time to relax."
"If you’re reading while thinking about playing outside, even if you read for one or two hours, you might not absorb anything. I think everyone has experienced this."
The classmates present laughed, "Yes, indeed."
"When you hear your friends calling from outside, you just can’t sit still."
"Even though my parents made me study at home, hearing my friends playing around outside, I couldn’t help but want to fly out too."
Zhao Guangran had deep experience with this. "Then tell your parents to finish your homework quickly and go out afterward."
"That’s how it was for me when I played outside. My brother never limited my time, as long as I understood what I was learning." Zhao Guangran used to think Zhao Xuran was quite strict with him, but now listening to classmates complain, he felt he was quite fortunate.
Zhao Guangran felt that even if his big brother scolds him in the future, he shouldn’t complain about him, because although his brother’s demands are high, he gets a lot of playtime. Of course, it’d be better if he could reduce the punishment for each test a bit more.
Ah, no way, is Zhao Guangran also someone who likes to play? Everyone got excited and asked him what he does for fun.
"I have to see my parents on weekends. Usually, I either read books or go out to box, or draw, but most of the time I’m playing hide and seek or war games with my younger brother." Zhao Guangran said he had plenty of play activities.
Ah, boxing, maybe some girls think it’s not great, but the boys liked it and crowded around Zhao Guangran to ask who he learned boxing from.
"My uncle, but I’m just practicing the basics. My uncle says when I’m older, he’ll teach me more advanced skills. But I already know a bit of martial arts, even Ni Zi does too." Zhao Guangran recalled what his big brother said before, now they should be completely at odds with Teacher Wu, not knowing how the other side resents him and Ni Zi.
If it was before, Zhao Guangran thought a teacher like Teacher Wu wouldn’t be so outrageous, but she can treat Teacher Zhao like this, so she wouldn’t spare him either.
"Ah, who is Ni Zi?" Although everyone had some idea about who Ni Zi was, without Zhao Guangran saying, they couldn’t be sure.
Damn Zhao Guangran, clearly told him after getting to school not to bring up her nickname. See, this nickname is as rustic as can be. If she were an ordinary person, Gong Ruini really wouldn’t worry.
At worst, she wouldn’t attend any so-called class reunions in the future, and they might not even remember, but could she be just an ordinary person?
Even if they might not remember her, wouldn’t they definitely recall when thinking of Zhao Guangran, the sidekick with such a rustic name? 5555, oh her image, it’s gone completely.
Gong Ruini really wanted to slap Zhao Guangran away; he’d already made a mistake yesterday, promised at home he wouldn’t again, yet he still did.
Oh no, he did it again. Meeting Gong Ruini’s unfriendly gaze, Zhao Guangran really wanted to cry. He hoped the people present would forget it, but alas, some fools still existed.
"Oh, Ni Zi is you, isn’t it?" Cao Na thought yesterday that the Ni Zi Zhao Guangran mentioned should be Gong Ruini. But since he was a new classmate yesterday and changed his words quickly, she didn’t think much of it. Yet today mentioning it again, Cao Na’s first reaction was that he was talking about Gong Ruini.
Oh, how could there be such an idiot, clearly not an idiot, clearly with the face of a clever person, but speaking words only an idiot would say. Zhao Guangran really felt it was worse than the twins at home.
What could Gong Ruini do, deny it? The trouble is if she denied it, would Zhao Guangran bring it up next time? This guy’s mouth is so quick, sometimes she really couldn’t suppress it even if she wanted to.
Sighing lightly, Gong Ruini said, "Yes, Ni Ni, Ni Zi, the last character of my name."
"Then can I call you Ni Zi from now on?" Cao Na felt that calling Gong Ruini by her full name wasn’t as pleasant as the nickname, and calling her by the nickname seemed to suggest a closer relationship.
No, of course not, Ni Zi is for family. How can outsiders call that, and when did our relationship become so close?
Oh sis, please, we just met yesterday, we’re not that familiar; I really wouldn’t mind if you called me Gong Ruini.
"Of course you can, calling Ni Zi is good, at home we all call her Ni Zi." Zhao Guangran felt that calling Ni Zi was better, so if he slipped up later, there’d be no problem.
Moreover, since the whole class knew the name Ni Zi already, there was no need to hide it. It was better to say it openly.
The laggard guy, at least he’s not talking about his own nickname, Gong Ruini made a mental note of this, there would be plenty of chances for revenge.
Seeing Gong Ruini’s dissatisfied glance, Zhao Guangran indicated he really wasn’t worried at all. After all, he owed so much, what harm was adding a bit more, and he smiled at Gong Ruini, suggesting not to be so petty.
Sigh, really defeated by such a shameless guy, what could Gong Ruini do but agree and agree.
