Chapter 303

Xiao Qi ran very happily. She didn't need to think about participating in a marathon competition anymore. Running felt more peaceful and comfortable.

Otherwise, she would always think about pursuing an optimal state and speed, which actually put quite some pressure on her.

Without the pressure of competition, she was running even better.

After experiencing an intense competition once, her body was completely overdrawn. It seemed to have exercised every joint and even every pore, as if they were all opened up. Now it was very relaxing for Xiao Qi to run 30,000 steps every day. She felt like she hadn't run at all, just like eating and drinking water daily, it was so simple.

She was also in very good physical condition. She hadn't caught a cold ever since she came to the school, despite the changing weather getting colder and warmer.

She ate a lot during the day, but didn't get fat either, maintaining a very good figure.

She didn't know she had so many trivial things in her mind when she was running, and she no longer thought about her high school crush Liu Shaowei.

That could be considered her first love during her ignorant youth.

When she was not ignorant, it was easy to forget as it was not deeply imprinted.

As for Li Ruisheng, Xiao Qi had put him behind her mind even more. She now felt very calm about it, thinking it was just dream content, irrelevant to reality. Many things had changed, she shouldn't dwell on the past.

After running, Xiao Qi went back to the dormitory to wash up and then went to the evening self-study session in the classroom.

Under Xiao Qi’s influence, her roommates would also go to self-study unless they had important Student Union or club activities, which was rare. There were many classes during the day, and they couldn't finish their homework and review without evening self-study sessions. Otherwise, the courses would just whoosh by, and they wouldn't know what was being taught even if they were in class. College professors didn't spoon-feed knowledge like high school teachers did. More often, they would deliver the lecture in a whoosh and expect the students to comprehend it themselves.

Some students could even finish college without knowing what they had learned. The academic atmosphere was not strong at Enhua University, so this phenomenon was particularly serious.

However, freshmen would be slightly better. Mainly because freshmen hadn't figured out the way things worked yet, or they still behaved like high schoolers - most of them would obediently go to self-study, but some who did go to self-study still didn't know what to do there. They didn't pay attention in class during the day, and thus fell behind in many courses.

Xiao Qi and her three roommates went to the class' evening self-study session in unison. Mier had become much more well-behaved recently, no longer leaving the dorm empty-handed to participate in all kinds of activities every day after the unsuccessful attempt at love. Yunshu also stopped looking at her phone novel during self-study and paid some attention to studying.

And so, the classroom of Class 1 in the Information Management Department seemed to have more people than other classes’ self-study sessions.

Because Xiao Qi and her gang went to self-study, girls from other dorms followed along too. Even Su Li from the dorm across Xiao Qi's showed up to self-study, which was rare.

On the boys' side it was even weirder. Li Weijin actually became a self-study convert...

With Li Weijin showing up, many other boys appeared too. Li Weijin was quite influential among the male students. Not only was he very generous with red envelopes in the group chat every day, he would also often treat everyone to late-night snacks after self-study ended.

The class monitor would basically show up at self-study, and the vice class monitor would join when the class monitor appeared.

With half of a classroom full, the learning atmosphere was quite strong.

Xiao Qi liked this feeling, it was a bit like the academically-oriented Qingmeng University.

She had felt deeply impressed when she visited Qingmeng University. The learning atmosphere there was really strong, with studying shadows visible everywhere.

Xiao Qi felt that she would not waste the time spent on studying in the future.

Those people reading books were being responsible for their college life and their future. After all, the reason for coming to college was to learn.

Yet at Enhua University, it was a completely different picture, where one would even be mocked for just studying.

It seemed that maturity came earlier, along with an earlier arrival in a small society called the Student Union or club.

During self-study, she would review what was taught that day and do homework. She was the study committee member, so classmates often asked her about homework... These classmates included but were not limited to Li Weijin, Su Li, her deskmate, etc...

Xiao Qi was usually quite patient in answering them, because she had been a tutor before. Her English had improved the fastest when she was tutoring. Teaching others was reinforcing her own knowledge, and it also revealed deficiencies in her knowledge base, so she was happy to help. Li Weijin had originally used the excuse of asking about homework to get close to Su Xiaoqi, because he really had no other excuse. He felt that Su Xiaoqi was truly special, like not competing for red envelopes usually.

However, every time Su Xiaoqi explained a problem to him, she was surprisingly simple and clear. At first he pretended not to understand when he actually did, but still got new answers. Later when he really didn't understand and asked, the problems were still easily solved.

This made Li Weijin, who had previously felt studying was useless and boring, suddenly feel it was quite interesting after all. So that's how it worked...

When Su Li saw Li Weijin shamelessly asking about homework, she went to ask as well.

And she obtained the same feeling - damn, this question is so simple, yet I don't know how to solve it. My IQ has been crushed. No way, I have to find more difficult questions tomorrow.

But to find difficult questions, she had to know which questions were difficult or not first.

So she must pay close attention in class.

As for her deskmate Mier, she already had a smart brain, but was a little distracted, with an outgoing and lively personality. It was easy for her to get distracted. She was disheartened by the failure of her innocent attempt at love before it even started during the recent Student Union activities. She felt she was too naive and seemed to accomplish nothing, so she decided to restrain herself and learn from her deskmate to study hard and gain knowledge.

Otherwise, with such an excellent roommate, she would fall further and further behind.

Xiao Qi's other roommates felt the same way.

Gu Yunshu was originally a rich second generation. Although she treated people in a down-to-earth way, deep down she still had some arrogance. But now she also felt she was too useless, completely surpassed by Xiao Qi in every aspect. Even with the same studying, Xiao Qi was so much more excellent than them. Xiao Qi's conditions were not even better than theirs, on the contrary, they were poorer.

Especially after hearing Xiao Qi's English speech, it was really not easy for her.

Gu Yunshu felt that she should spend more time studying, regardless of what she wanted to do in the future, she should not waste the present.

Just like that, a strong studying atmosphere was formed.

Chu Yu in the class also stared at Su Xiaoqi every day, feeling that Su Xiaoqi was a scheming bitch, but had to admit that Su Xiaoqi was truly outstanding, winning so many prizes. She could only force herself to study hard, and not just pretend to study hard.

As such an excellent study committee member, it also put a lot of pressure on the class monitor and vice class monitor. Although the two of them sat together and announced their relationship, they still studied hard together and progressed together.

Xiao Qi's self-study session was the same as usual, doing homework and occasionally explaining a problem to classmates. Time flew by quickly. Before she knew it, the end of self-study bell rang. She actually felt like she had just sat down not long ago. When efficiency was high, time was never enough.

At the same time, the familiar mechanical voice rang out in her ear again: "Host's active learning attitude and efforts have influenced classmates to study diligently and positively. Reward: 1 Expert Driving Skill Card."
