The morning on campus was quiet. The fog spread across the ground like a thin layer of gauze, surrounding the campus. Gradually, the white dawn began to appear in the east and the sun began to rise. The long-awaited sunlight dispelled the morning mist, illuminating the land. The warm and harmonious air was drifting about in the air.
The morning sun shone through the window onto Bai Yufei's delicate and beautiful face. Bai Yufei's lips were already pale like the petals of a white rose after an entire night of hard work. Her face also showed signs of fatigue.
His clear eyes were still staring at the computer, and the speed at which he typed did not slow down at all.
After Bai Yufei typed out the last line on the computer, she said, "Done!" She sighed and stretched for a long time.
Next to her, Xia Tiantian had just fallen asleep an hour ago. Bai Yufei was too tired from looking at her. Furthermore, she only had the last part of her analysis left. It would be more efficient for her to speed up the match by herself.
Seeing that it was almost time, Bai Yufei gently patted Xia Tiantian awake. She forced herself to stay tired but still smiled at Xia Tiantian and said, "We've completed it." After saying that, he even gestured "OK" towards her.
Xia Tiantian drowsily opened her eyes. When she heard Bai Yufei's words, she was stunned for a moment before she reacted and nearly jumped up while holding Bai Yufei's hand.
"Alright, alright, let's quickly go and wash up. We have to give it to teacher before morning class."
Only when the cool water touched her face did Bai Yufei feel more spirited. After washing her face, she looked into the mirror with her eyes slightly red. She thought that after she handed in the report of the investigation, she would definitely reserve a full body of high grade beauty to reward her body for staying up late with him.
Bai Yufei took out lipstick to cover her slightly bloodless lips. She then quickly and simply adorned her whole face before quickly leaving the room with Xia Tiantian.
Bai Yufei and Xia Tiantian found the teacher in the teacher's lounge and submitted their report together.
The teacher was carefully reviewing the results of their night's work. Bai Yufei patted Xia Tiantian's trembling shoulder to reduce her nervousness.
After a long wait, the teacher finally said, "That's right." Hearing this, the two of them heaved a sigh of relief.
"But how did you come to think of it from this angle?"
The teacher seemed to be deliberately asking questions, asking one after another. Bai Yufei took her time, putting her thoughts on the problem and the framework in her mind. She did not forget to add Xia Tiantian into the mix.
Actually, when the teacher was reading the report, he was already astonished. Such an amazing report without any flaws was far beyond his level!
The teacher was worried that such a perfect investigation report might be a copy of another work. Thus, he asked a few more questions to confirm his suspicions and to ensure fairness.
Only after hearing Bai Yufei's flawless and confident reply did the teacher finally believe that this student had been able to write an investigation report beyond his level. This was truly something to fear from the younger generation.
The teacher nodded his head in satisfaction and gently told them that they could do it. The report of the investigation had already passed and they could only wait for the score to be calculated. In the end, he even added, "To be able to complete such a great assignment in such a short period of time, the highest score in the teacher's heart has already taken its place."
Bai Yufei and Xia Tiantian kept their cool as they bid farewell to the teacher and thanked him. Only then did they slowly walk out of the teacher's lounge.
The moment they left the lounge, Xia Tiantian grabbed Bai Yufei's hand and started spinning excitedly.
"Did you hear that, Yufei! He said we had the highest score! It's all thanks to you! " Xia Tiantian was jumping up and down in excitement.
"You did it with me, so you're also the best!" Bai Yufei was also infected by Xia Tiantian's excitement as she spun around in circles with Xia Tiantian. Her bell-like laughter rang out continuously.
Xia Tiantian felt that Bai Yufei had changed. However, she couldn't say what had changed. She only felt that she had become more attractive and wanted to be friends with her. She seemed to have changed too. She was becoming more and more fond of getting along with Bai Yufei.
Bai Yufei was also very grateful for the passage of time that allowed her to use this friendship, which she fought side by side, to write a line of thick ink in her university life.
After she had calmed down, Bai Yufei asked the question that had been plaguing her heart the most, "Tiantian, did someone see our report? Actually, the one who copied it wasn't us, but another group. "
In the entire dorm room, only Bai Yufei, Xia Tiantian, and Gong Mingyue had participated in this elective class. Lin Lii, on the other hand, had chosen to take another class because she did not like this one.
"I had the same idea, but the teacher wasn't willing to tell me who the other group of students was. He said he was afraid we might do something in private." Xia Tiantian felt a bit disheartened when she said this.
No way … It couldn't be her again, Bai Yufei thought to herself.
"Then when you were writing your report in the dorm, was Gong Mingyue there?" Although she didn't want to, Bai Yufei still voiced out her doubts.
Xia Tiantian was stunned for a moment before she suddenly realized what was going on. She clapped her hands and exclaimed in a low voice, "Ah!"
"I remember! Once, at noon, I was alone in the dormitory. I was writing a report on the investigation, and then a call came in for me to go downstairs and get my takeout. " Xia Tiantian paused for a moment before continuing, "After returning, the document seemed to be closed. I remember that I was in too much of a hurry to leave the computer on my way down, so the document should be turned on. I thought it was a mistake, so I didn't mind. "
"Was there someone else in the dorm then?" Bai Yufei seized on the main point and continued asking.
A look of disbelief flashed across Xia Tiantian's face. "Yes, Gong Mingyue is on her own bed …"
The two of them had already come to an answer in their hearts, and their faces were filled with complicated expressions.
Bai Yufei knew that Gong Mingyue didn't like her in the past, but Bai Yufei wouldn't have provoked her on purpose.
She follows your principle of not disturbing me and I will not disturb you. Although she occasionally bickers, Bai Yufei and Gong Mingyue always get along peacefully.
But this semester, it was unknown if it was because the jealous Gong Mingyue sensed Bai Yufei's change and was afraid that the sense of danger from being overtaken was getting stronger and stronger. She even started to attack him with such despicable methods.
"This is too much!" Xia Tiantian realized that Gong Mingyue had snuck a peek at the report when she wasn't around, and had seized all the best part of the analysis for herself, leaving them in a quagmire of plagiarism.
Bai Yufei was so angry that she clenched her fists tightly. She bit her lips until the bones in her fingers turned white.
Bai Yufei wanted to find Gong Mingyue for a debate to get to the bottom of things. However, before she could even take a step forward, she felt as though her entire body had collapsed.
She could hear Xia Tiantian's anxious cries, but her eyelids were so heavy and her body so heavy that she couldn't keep her eyes open, and she didn't have the strength to respond to Tiantian's cries …
Gradually, Bai Yufei's consciousness started to blur. Before she could continue thinking, her mind could no longer condense. In the next second, she fainted.
