In the afternoon, the students were gathering in groups of twos and threes to take commemorative photos, but Li Qian was in no mood for it.
What Tu Jiaojiao said during lunch, combined with Teacher Chu Xiran's advice, had still affected him to some extent.
The class president's excuse had been clumsy. He had reason to suspect that she wasn't applying to Shazhou Beast Taming University for the scholarship at all.
'That was hardly any money.'
He had a strong feeling that she was, in all likelihood, doing it for him.
"Tonight, I heard there's a class dinner at Juyuan Restaurant by the east gate. Are you going?" Fatty An asked, clapping Li Qian on the shoulder just as he was lost in thought.
Li Qian snapped back to his senses and shook his head without a second thought. "I'm not going. It's just eating and drinking—nothing interesting. I have something to do in a bit, so I'm heading back to the Cultivation Base."
