Senior Sister, Shut Up!

Chapter 48: Marriage Is an Examination, and Dating Is Studying?

[During high school, should you invest time and energy into developing skills related to your passions?]

During class in the afternoon, Jiang Miao received a new debate topic from Senior Sister in the WeChat group.

[The Uninformed Team]

[Su Huaizhou]: Here’s this week’s debate topic. We’re the affirmative side. Let’s collect some information today and write a brief summary of your arguments. Tomorrow afternoon, we’ll have a meeting.

[Su Huaizhou]: Please reply to confirm. Let me know if there’s a problem with the time.

[Ding Ning]: Got it!

[Jia Tongxue]: Got it!

[Yi Luren]: Got it!

[Pei Jue]: Got it!

[Jiang Miao]: Got it.

“Dog, has the basketball tournament schedule been set?” Jiang Miao asked quietly, sitting in the last row of the classroom.

“The teams were confirmed over the weekend. The matches start tomorrow,” Xun Liang replied softly. “For those of us who confirmed our team later, our match will be on Thursday.”

“Why do I feel like you’re so invested and concerned? You seem to know everything,” Jiang Miao said with a hint of suspicion.

“Hehe.” Xun Liang snickered and rubbed his hands awkwardly. “Didn’t I join the sports association with my wife? The sports association is the organizer of the basketball tournament.

“Running the tournament was assigned to my and my wife’s group. So the smoother it goes, the better.

“If our class couldn’t form a complete team, there would have only been fifteen teams, making arranging the tournament more complicated. Having sixteen teams is much easier.”

Jiang Miao: “…”

It’s better to talk less to this guy in the future.

Just any casual conversation can be about his girlfriend. How can a single person live in peace?

“Brother Jiang, don’t be angry. Since you’ve agreed to participate, I’ll buy all the boba during the tournament,” Xun Liang promised, patting his chest.

“Who needs your boba?” Jiang Miao scoffed, instinctively thinking of Senior Sister.

If Senior Sister knew he was participating in the basketball tournament, would she come with bubble tea to cheer him on?

As he thought about this, the image of Senior Sister in a sleeveless shirt and a short skirt, standing on the sidelines and cheering, appeared in his mind.

But the next moment, the cheer of ‘Go, Peach Jam!’ resounded in his mind, making him shiver.

Damn, that’s too terrifying…

He might as well drop dead as soon as he stepped onto the court.

Shaking his head, Jiang Miao looked at the ethics professor reading a presentation on the podium and then turned his attention back to his phone.

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: How is the debate topic this time? Interested in going on stage?

[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: Senior Sister, we have an agreement.

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: I know. I’m just checking. What if you’re interested?

[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: I’m more interested in writing.

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: I haven’t seen you writing much.

[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: Writing is like gaming. Too much is as bad as not enough. 3000 words a day is just right.

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Haha.

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Don’t forget about the argument summary. You have to speak at the discussion tomorrow.

[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: …

[Zhouzhou Loves Congee]: Oh, right. Since you’re not going on stage, you’ll have to write a short argument summary for the opposition side to give our teammates some practice.

[Miaomiao is Deep in Thought]: Okay…

Another one-on-four…

Excluding Ding Ning, this weak link, it was still one against three.

So, is Senior Sister using me as a practice partner?

To put it nicely, he was a practice partner. To put it bluntly, he was just a punching bag.

And for girls who liked to debate, when they got into the swing of discussing a topic…

Even though his teammates had made several mistakes during the first match, that was because it was their first time on stage, and they were nervous.

He knew his teammates discussed debate topics in private much more smoothly and logically than on stage.

Thinking about this gave Jiang Miao a headache. He opened the group chat and looked at the debate topic again.

[During high school, should you invest time and energy into developing skills related to your passions?]

The topic had a fairly broad scope.

Since the only restriction was ‘passions’, the only real challenge for the affirmative side was ‘during high school’.

On the one hand, the affirmative side needed to constantly reinforce the positive and beneficial aspects of pursuing passions.

On the other hand, they had to continuously downplay the practical significance of ‘during high school’.

Of course, their arguments would be even stronger if they could combine high school studies with pursuing passions to create a mutually positive effect.

In addition, the aspect of ‘investing time and energy’ also provided room for some nuanced arguments.

In that case, Jiang Miao could simply counter the above approach to form his arguments for the opposition side.

He sighed.

With this time, wouldn’t it be better if he wrote a few more words?

Of course, playing a game like Honor of Kings would be even better.

However, it wasn’t good to play games in class, and he didn’t want to type on his small phone, so he could only think of arguments to pass the time.

The first day of college classes ended quickly.

One class was Ethics, and the other was Introduction to Management. The experience was unremarkable, and listening to them felt boring.

It was almost five o’clock. After class, Chen Haoshang, who sat near the corridor, immediately got up and left, still coming and going like the wind.

With a grin, Xun Liang said goodbye to his dear roommates and went to find his girlfriend.

“It’s us two single dogs again.” Jiang Miao sighed, got up, and went with Wang Xin to the cafeteria.

Wang Xin glanced at him. “It’s clearly just me.”

Jiang Miao: “???”

Wang Xin said, “It’s okay. I understand. No need to say anything else.”

Jiang Miao: “…”

What was the saddest thing in the world?

It wasn’t that all your roommates were in a relationship while you were still a single dog.

It was that, despite being a single dog, people mistakenly thought you were a love dog!

It was too pitiful.

“Old Wang, don’t you have any thoughts about dating?” Jiang Miao changed the topic. “Song Huanhuan is clearly interested in you, and you two are even on the same debate team. Any progress?”

“I don’t know how to be in a relationship.” Wang Xin shook his head. “I’d just waste other people’s time.”

“Don’t know how or don’t want to?”

“Don’t know how, so don’t want to.”

“What’s the difference?”

“It’s just different,” Wang Xin said seriously. “For example, you can accumulate experience for exams by doing practice questions, but it’s not the same for dating.”

“… If you don’t date, where will you get experience?”

“Even if I don’t take exams, I can still accumulate experience by doing practice questions.”

“You’re really something.” Jiang Miao was rendered speechless by Wang Xin’s logic. But after some thought, he said, “But actually, taking exams should correspond to getting married, and dating is like doing practice questions, right?”

Wang Xin was stunned, but in the end, he shook his head. “Let’s talk about when I plan to get married. If you don’t want to take exams, you won’t do practice questions, right?”

“…” The corners of Jiang Miao’s mouth twitched as he gave him a thumbs up. “You’re awesome.”

“So what about you? You and Senior Sister…” Wang Xin paused halfway and continued, “Hmm… is being ordinary friends like tackling practice questions?”

Jiang Miao almost vomited blood. My ordinary friends’ relationship with Senior Sister is nothing like the ordinary friends you’re talking about!

Let alone tackling practice questions…

It’s more like Senior Sister is tackling me.
