Chapter 27: Being Targeted

  Chapter 27 is being targeted

  Wishing a happy Children's Day to all fellow villagers, may you always keep a childlike heart!

  According to the instructions for 'Brain Tonic', the first feeding will not immediately produce an increase in intelligence, but rather requires continuous feeding to gradually produce results.

  After tasting the delicious "awakening liquid", Xiao Songshi seemed to have put down his guard and started to adapt to life in the laboratory, becoming much more affectionate with Duan Yue.

  Thus, Duan Yue's life began to have a new companion. Whenever the experiment was idle, he tried to train Xiaosongshi some simple actions such as standing up and sitting down. With Xiaosongshi, the originally dull life in the laboratory also had a bit of fun, becoming a relief from the tense experiments.

  However, a phone call a few days later disrupted Duan Yue's peaceful life.

  "Stone, this morning the school organized a roll call in class, and you got caught red-handed!" Da Shan's voice on the phone was somewhat guilty, with a sense of being speechless.

  "Typical?" Duanyong was somewhat surprised and said: "When did the school ever crack down on classroom discipline?"

  To say, the school spirit of Haicheng University is still quite strict, and with Shanghai University implementing a credit system, the difficulty of exams is relatively high. Due to academic pressure, there aren't many students who skip class. Duan Lei's grades were generally good, and since the lab was also under pressure, he simply didn't attend classes for a long time. No one ever managed him, so Duan Lei didn't take it seriously either.

  He never expected that the school would suddenly have an inspection, it was really a bit unexpected.

  "We were also puzzled, the inspection team just came to our class, calling out names one by one, it's impossible for you to answer even if they wanted to help. Big Mountain said with a tone full of doubt: "The inspection team just left, I estimate that the teacher will call you soon."

  As expected, just after hanging up Da Shan's phone call, Zhang Jiu's phone call came over.

  "Duan Yue, why aren't you in school today? The Academic Affairs Office has been calling me nonstop!" Zhang Jiao also somewhat disliked the Academic Affairs Office for making a big deal out of a small matter and said with some regret: "The national scholarship at the end of the year might be a bit troublesome, you'd better prepare yourself mentally!"

  "I know, I'll go back to school now. It's really troublesome for Teacher Zhang!" Duan Lei replied calmly without arguing too much.

  If it were in the past, regarding the gain or loss of a scholarship, Duan Yue would really be very nervous. However, now that he has swallowed the calabaza, Duan Yue is more open-minded. It's just that Duan Yue still finds it puzzling how the school suddenly remembered to crack down on classroom discipline and he became the typical example by bad luck.

  Shaking his head, Duan Lei didn't think too much about it. He added various reagents to the cultivation lab, packed up his personal belongings, closed the door and rode his bike back to Haida University. Xiao Songshi was stuffed into Duan Lei's backpack, poking out its head and curiously looking at the scenery rushing by along the way.

  Back in the dormitory, Dashan and several others were still discussing what had just happened.

  "Stone, you're back!" Da Shan nodded at Duan Peng and said, "I just went to ask around, it seems that only our class is doing roll call one by one, the others are just random checks! Something's fishy about this!"

  "No big deal, it's just a scholarship! Let's go to Liu Fu, I'll treat everyone, and you can bring your family!" Duan Lei said with a wave of his hand.

  "Have you become rich, Stone?" Xu Shan rushed over and stretched out his hand to touch Duan Yue's pocket, laughing and saying: "The scholarship is gone, not a bit heartbroken, and still wants to treat us to dinner?"

  "Get out!" Duan Yue pushed Xu Shan away with one hand and scolded: "I'm not interested in men!"

  "You're deliberately provoking us singles, and you're even bringing your family!" Da Shan had just broken up with his ex-girlfriend and was not in the mood for Duan Lei's suggestion.

  "Older brother, stop pretending, you've been in close contact with Zhao Lin or whatever her name is this month, don't think we're all blind?" Liu Yu ruthlessly exposed Da Shan's lie and started gossiping to the others in the dorm.

  "Hey, you little scamp! Don't run!" Just as Liu Yu was about to start speaking, Dashan became a bit anxious and pounced on Liu Yu like a fierce tiger descending from the mountain.

  Several brothers laughed and made a fuss, which also eased the typical depression of Duan Lei being caught.

  "Huh? Shi Tou, when did you buy a raccoon dog?" It wasn't until Duan Lei put down his backpack and let the little guy run wild in the dormitory that everyone noticed.

  "I bought it a few days ago. Otherwise, I'd be bored to death in the lab by myself!" Duan Lei still had a bit of a show-off mentality and started directing the little guy to perform various actions on the ground.

  "Stones, this is too cute!" Liu Yu had just managed to escape the ravages of the mountain, but was immediately defeated by the cuteness of Xiao Songshi. He said with a sigh: "With such a cute creature going out to pick up girls, it's definitely a guaranteed win!"

  Liu Yu's words won people's hearts, and everyone suddenly had a good impression of Xiao Songshi.

  Soon, Xiao Song Shi became the object of everyone's affection, but the enthusiasm of the crowd made the little guy a bit afraid, and he actually crawled under the bed and didn't want to come out.

  After a while, when they thought it was about time, Duan Lei and the others locked Xiao Songshi in the dormitory before heading out to eat together.

  …………

  "Xiaoqiang, which college is Lao Da's new girlfriend from? Why does it sound so familiar to me?" Duan Lei asked Yang Xiaoqiang on the way to Liu Fu.

  "I thought you already knew, isn't it the older sister from Tang Lian'er's dormitory?" Xiao Qiang said in surprise: "Our two dormitories have become a matchmaking dormitory, Liu Yu and Wen Wu are now arguing to let Lao Da help them set up a blind date."

  "Haha, I get it!" Duan Lei thought for a moment, took out his phone and called Tang Lian'er to ask her to gather all the dormitory roommates together for dinner, and then go K-singing together at night.

  "Those two bachelors are almost suffocating, if there's any progress tonight, let them foot the bill!" Xu Shanwei looked at Si Siwen, who was elegant but belonged to the introverted and slightly evil type.

  After waiting for a while at Liu Fu, Zhao Lin brought the sisters from her dormitory over. The six girls with their unique characteristics walking on the road were indeed eye-catching.

  Tang Lier, like a fairy, doesn't need to be mentioned. She just needs to stand there quietly and she'll become the center of attention; Zhao Lin has short hair, which makes her look more capable than other girls; Chen Jie looks pretty good too, except for a few freckles on her face that deduct some points; Li Xiaoli has long legs and is wearing denim shorts, which is quite dazzling; Li Chen has a baby face, but her figure is the best in their dormitory, and can be called a child.

  Yan **; Shen Xiaoxia has a pair of big watery eyes, which is a type that many boys like.

  "Stone, you little rascal, you've won our Liu Er, it's time to treat us!" As soon as they met, Zhao Lin directed her firepower at Duan Lei, but made Tang Liu Er blush bright red.

  "To be honest, it should be Lao Da treating us. You two did a great job keeping the secret!" Duan Lei wasn't to be outdone and directly spilled the beans about Zhao Lin's matter.

  Upon hearing this, Zhao Lin's eyes widened in shock and he could only laugh awkwardly, gesturing for everyone to enter the Liu Fu teahouse and diverting their attention.

  Duan Yue had booked a large private room in advance, which could accommodate more than ten people. After a while, Xu Shanwei and Yang Xiaoqiang's girlfriend also arrived.

  The two girlfriends are both their hometown people and have been in a relationship since freshman year. In their words, they are an old couple.

  Everyone present was young, and soon everyone became familiar with each other, and the atmosphere in the private room gradually warmed up.

  During this time, Duan Yue answered a call from Zhang Jiao's master. After returning, his expression didn't change much, but Tang Li'er, who was sitting next to him, could still sensitively detect a hint of difference.

  "What's wrong, Shi Tou?" Tang Liu'er asked with concern.

  "It's nothing, I'll tell you later!" Duan Lei shook his head and downplayed it.

  In fact, Duan Yue's mood was not as calm as he seemed, because earlier Zhang Jiao said that the scholarship and student loan he applied for this semester were both rejected.

  When he first entered university, Duan Yue applied for scholarships and student loans due to his family's difficult financial situation, barely scraping together the tuition fees and living expenses for the first year. Later on, relying on income from part-time jobs and various scholarships, Duan Yue managed to get by at Haicheng University without too much difficulty.

  After the start of this semester, Duan Yue still applied for scholarships and loans as usual, but he did not expect that all of these would be rejected today. The current Duan Yue is no longer concerned about this money, but thinking of the actions of the teaching office today, Duan Yue's heart still has a little cloudiness.

  Duan Yue vaguely guessed some possibilities, but still didn't dare to confirm, let's wait and see.

  After dinner, a group of people flocked to the KTV gathering point near the school, found a large private room and started singing.

  Since the university moved to the suburbs of Haicheng, it has also brought many research institutions to settle nearby. In just a few years, the nearly 100,000 increased consumer population has led to the emergence of many entertainment venues near the university. Like Jidian, a mid-range consumption KTV with complete facilities, is one of the favorite gathering places for Haicheng University students.

  After sitting down in the private room, Dashan and Zhao Lin started teasing, asking Duan Lei and Tang Lier to sing a duet love song.

  At this point, Duan Yue was too embarrassed to say anything else, so he stood up generously, holding Lu Er's hand, and sang "The Rooftop" together.

  Don't look at Lian'er, who usually speaks softly and weakly, but when she sings high notes, she's not ambiguous at all, and it's not much different from some singers on TV shows. However, what surprises others even more is Duan Lei, who can still sing pop songs with a bit of original flavor. This is all thanks to his childhood experience of often following his grandfather to perform mountain songs in the countryside, which has accumulated through ear and eye contact.

  The private room was filled with young people, including couples and those who were ambiguous about their relationships, so the atmosphere quickly became lively. This is the joy of being young.

  …………

  After singing for a while, Duan Yue felt a bit suffocated and walked out of the private room to get some fresh air in the corridor, but unexpectedly heard a scream!
