The next day.
As the bell signaling the end of the exam rang.
Countless high school seniors felt a great weight lifted from their hearts.
Regardless of the exam results, at least it was over, wasn't it?
"Finally free!"
The boy sitting behind the flatulence enthusiast was in tears.
Who knew how he had endured the exams these past two days?
It was a dual torment of spirit and body, thankfully he had persevered with immense willpower!
The boy felt that years later, he could brag about this incident.
During my college entrance exams, there was a fart god sitting in front of me, who reeked out the guy next to him so much that he couldn't concentrate on the exam and fled early every time, while I, with my unyielding spirit and superhuman willpower, persevered!
This time, Wang Yue waited outside the school.
After the exam, they couldn't go home immediately; they had to return to school for teachers to give some final instructions.
Everyone was in high spirits.
"We've all agreed, right? We're not sleeping tonight! Let's cherish our last day of senior year!"
"Yeah, I don't want to sleep either. After this college entrance exam, we'll all go our separate ways. I'm a bit reluctant to leave you all."
"I wonder what we'll be like in ten or twenty years?"
"Classmates, we're graduating. We're adults now, not kids anymore!"
"Why are you only becoming an adult now? I was already an adult in my second year of high school."
"That's because you're old!"
"Damn! That's called maturity."
Various discussions could be heard around them.
Meanwhile, Wang Yue and Qiao Zixuan were chatting together.
"Finally, it's over. That fart king really made me mentally exhausted."
Qiao Zixuan sighed.
"Hahaha, don't think about it. What we should celebrate now is our graduation."
Wang Yue said with a smile.
"But for some reason, I can't quite feel happy."
Qiao Zixuan said listlessly.
"No way, Boss Qiao, you can't feel happy even when you're graduating."
Wang Yue chuckled.
"Forget it, you big idiot, you wouldn't understand even if I told you."
Qiao Zixuan said, rolling her eyes.
"By the way, when are we going on that trip to Western Sichuan you mentioned after graduation?"
Wang Yue asked again.
When it came to traveling, Qiao Zixuan's eyes lit up again. "We can go anytime. We can set a date first, and then I'll book a tour."
"Okay, I'm free anytime too. You pick the date then."
Wang Yue nodded.
"Deal!"
Qiao Zixuan smiled.
Under Zuo Yue's organization, everyone returned to school.
Back in the classroom, looking at the textbooks on their desks, a commotion erupted outside.
"Look quickly, everyone's tearing up their books!"
Hu Qianhao shouted.
Everyone ran to the outside of the classroom and saw the senior students from other classes acting like madmen, tearing their books into pieces and scattering them from the upper floors like snowflakes.
This scene stimulated the students of Class 2 to follow suit.
Countless people joined the book-tearing frenzy, ripping out pages, tearing them into pieces, and scattering them down.
Seeing this, Wang Yue suddenly remembered that he seemed to have been one of the revelers in his past life.
Actually, he could understand everyone's feelings.
For most people, this meant bidding farewell to 12 years of compulsory education, and 12 years of arduous study came to an end at this moment.
Some might continue to pursue higher education in university, while others could only fade away sadly and start facing life early.
And among those who got into university, eighty percent were motivated by the idea of having fun at college.
Teachers always said high school was tough and college was easy, and that college would be paradise, where you could do whatever you wanted.
But it wasn't until Wang Yue was nearing graduation from university that he realized this was the biggest lie.
University was indeed fun. As long as you didn't fail your final exams, no one would care if you slept in class.
But after playing around for four years?
You'd find that these four years were a complete waste, and apart from dating, gaming, and watching movies late into the night, you'd gained almost nothing.
The only thing you'd possess was that graduation certificate.
Then, you'd rush into the embrace of society, ready to face its harsh realities.
And among your peers, some would be pursuing postgraduate studies, some would find enviable jobs, and some would inherit family fortunes.
It was then that you'd realize that the gap between you and others had become as vast as a chasm.
"Big Yueyue, why aren't you joining them?"
Qiao Zixuan asked from the side.
Wang Yue came back to his senses and said, "If I tear up my books now, what if I have to repeat the year?"
"Pfft."
Qiao Zixuan laughed. "You're so wicked."
Wang Yue did not join the carnival.
Tearing up books was something you only needed to do once. There was no need for a second time.
In the end, it would only be the cleaning aunties who would be tired.
Tonight, everyone couldn't leave the campus yet. They would have to move their belongings out of school tomorrow and formally accept the reality of graduation.
After the revelry, everyone fell into a deep sense of emptiness.
Some were spacing out in the classroom, some in their dorm rooms, and some on the sports field.
Some gathered to play cards, others to chat.
But in the end, everyone realized one fact.
They were graduating.
They had to bid farewell to the alma mater they had lived in for three years.
Their lives were about to enter a new phase.
Now, these classmates and teachers whom they liked, disliked, or were indifferent to, might never see each other again.
Before graduation, they always longed for it, but when it truly arrived, everything that was usually insignificant would become a key to unlocking memories.
From a small piece of chalk to a large blackboard.
And the words on the blackboard: "0 days left until the college entrance examination."
Upon realizing this,
Countless people's eyes reddened. No one knew if tomorrow would be better, but they really had to say goodbye to each other.
The girls' dormitories were filled with cries.
The girls were more emotional, and this situation had been anticipated.
In the boys' dormitories, although the atmosphere was different, the topic of discussion was still about separation.
"If I become a big boss in the future, I'll look out for you all. Just come and work for me then!"
"Chen Ke, actually, one weekend, I secretly stole your underwear when you weren't looking because I had no underwear to wear. I've been too embarrassed to tell you, fearing you'd think I was a pervert."
"Damn it, you're telling me now, and I still think you're a pervert. Luckily, I never wore that pair of underwear."
"I couldn't have stolen it even if you had worn it."
"That's not certain. Brother Kang, you like dark colors, so it's not strange for you to like worn underwear."
"Chen Lei! Believe it or not, I'll take care of you tonight."
"Holy crap! So gay!"
"Film it, film it!"
