“Me…” Xie Ruheng looked at Tang Bai who knew nothing. He was suddenly confused: “I don’t know.”
It was cruel not to tell Tang Bai anything, but after his death, it would be even crueler for Tang Bai to bear all this alone.
He must find the reasons and weigh the pros and cons before making a decision.
“Let’s not talk about this for now. Brother Xie, how are you recovering now? Tomorrow is the etiquette test, the day after tomorrow is the physical test, and the day after that is the professional exam. If you don’t recover well and take the test directly, it will affect your performance, Brother Xie.” Tang Bai didn’t want to hear about the love dispute between Xie Ruheng and Gu Tunan and had no idea that it had a lot to do with him!
“It’s nothing serious.” The advanced repair cabin was indeed worth the money, and Xie Ruheng’s physical fitness test the day after tomorrow could return to normal levels.
“Very good! Then let’s review the content of the etiquette exam!” Tang Bai opened his review materials and checked seriously: “Please name the three commonly used titles between partners!”
This question stunned Xie Ruheng. If some time ago, Tang Bai had tutored him on this kind of topic before, he would suspect that it was Tang Bai’s trick to tease people, but now he was wondering… whether Tang Bai had foreseen the future topics for the test and was giving him a thorough cheat sheet?
This was indeed the case. In order to promote the rate of marriage and childbirth, the Federation included marital etiquette as an elective in the textbook. Tang Bai only learned about this test question in the novel. At that time, many people did not expect to take this knowledge point, but those aristocratic students who were preparing to get engaged were specially taught this, so Gu Tunan got high marks.
Tang Bai looked at Xie Ruheng’s stunned expression and thought that Xie Ruheng did not read the review materials he had prepared so carefully. He stretched out his finger and poked Xie Ruheng’s forehead, “Classmate Xie, you are not good.”
Teacher Xiao Tang pointed.
Xie Ruheng raised his eyes and looked at Tang Bai who was smiling sweetly. Then Tang Bai’s voice as soft and sweet as marshmallows, along with his soft touch reminded him: “Laogong[1]~”
Xie Ruheng’s heart skipped a beat. This title came to him and it was a critical hit.
His throat was dry and he whispered: “Laopo[2].”
Teacher Xiao Tang, who taught in an encouraging way, nodded with satisfaction and boldly touched Xie Ruheng’s shoulder like the snowball in his family.
The sinful little hand that wanted to commit the following couldn’t help but raise it, trying to land on Xie Ruheng’s head naturally.
“What else?” Teacher Xiao Tang asked.
A sweet milky green scent diluted the unique smell of disinfectant in the ward, leaving it with a sweet and gentle milky fragrance.
Xie Ruheng sat on the hospital bed, smelling the smell of pheromones after Tang Bai was marked by him, and inevitably recalled the memory of the day he marked Tang Bai.
Skin as smooth as fine silk, slender and beautiful body, strong and sweet toffee flavor and gasps like honey.
He grabbed Tang Bai’s hand that was about to touch his hair, “My Furen[3], Tang Bai.”
There were three common names for partners, Laogong and Laopo, Xiansheng[4] and Furen, and their full names.
Facing those deep phoenix eyes, Tang Bai blushed inexplicably.
It was strange. He now wanted to get close to Xie Ruheng, just like he wanted to get close to Xiao Cheng. He instinctively liked to have physical contact with the other person. He felt very comfortable when his hand was held by him, and he was so happy that little bubbles bubbled up in his heart.
If Xie Ruheng was not an omega, he would suspect that he had fallen in love with Xie Ruheng.
“…Ah, it seems that Brother Xie has read the information carefully, so I won’t do random checks.” Tang Bai took out his hand. He didn’t know why he avoided holding hands with the other. But Tang Bai had an intuition that if Xie Ruheng continued to hold him like this, he would not be able to help but shrink into Xie Ruheng’s arms and cling to Xie Ruheng like a koala.
….
The next day, etiquette examination room.
The Mechanical Department and the Mecha Department were brother majors. For large-scale exams like the Chief Examination, the two majors would cooperate with each other.
Tang Bai stood in the etiquette hall and listened to the teacher on the podium: “For each question, the system will randomly assign you a partner for the etiquette assessment. Your partner will help you score. The scoring must be objective and fair, because our teacher will randomly check the test video. Anyone found cheating will be severely punished.”
As soon as he finished speaking, countless eyes fell on Tang Bai. These military students were eager to give it a try. Everyone wanted to become Tang Bai’s partner and get the opportunity to have close contact.
It was time to test their luck!
“The results of the partner allocation for the first question are out. Let’s look at the candidates on our optical brains and meet up with our partners within one minute!”
Bai Li checked the optical brain pretending to be nonchalant.
Xie Ruheng frowned.
Mo Zheng clicked his tongue.
Tang Bai lowered his head and saw the message “2035010011 Gu Tunan”.
Ha?
Tang Bai lowered his face and saw Gu Tunan’s grey-blue eyes that could not suppress his joy through the crowd.
Under the gaze of everyone, Gu Tunan stretched out his hand to adjust his tie, raised his head and chest, and walked towards Tang Bai with a high head.
“Ah, why is it Gu Tunan?”
“I heard that although it was random, the partners we are going to be matched with are all at the same level as ourselves. Tang Bai is the god of learning in the mechanical department, and the people who can be matched with him are all big guys.”
“No, if I had known, I would have studied hard…”
Seeing Gu Tunan walking towards Tang Bai with great dignity, the military students who were watching couldn’t help but look envious and jealous.
“What a coincidence. It seems that we two are very destined.” Gu Tunan said to Tang Bai.
Tang Bai showed an awkward yet polite smile.
“The first is the basic question, which examines our daily greetings. Let’s start now.” After the teacher announced the question, everyone began to salute their partner.
The meeting ceremony between AAs was a handshake, with the strong one extending his hand first. Xie Ruheng’s partner glanced at Xie Ruheng, who had a very scary expression, and felt that Xie Ruheng’s outstretched hand seemed to be emitting black air, and he did not dare to hold it at all.
He followed Xie Ruheng’s line of sight and saw Gu Tunan and Tang Bai not far away. The meeting ceremony between A and O was a hand kiss… The beautiful aristocratic omega stretched out his white palms in a downward gesture, he was born delicate, and even his fingers were as beautiful as fine carvings.
Gu Tunan gently lifted the other person’s fingertips, pressed his thumb lightly on the back of Tang Bai’s hand, lowered his eyes and kissed his fingers.
“It hurts, it hurts!” His partner screamed when Xie Ruheng suddenly tightened his grip.
A hand kiss would not actually kiss the omega’s hand. Tang Bai was originally indifferent, but when he saw Xie Ruheng’s eyes not far away, he couldn’t help but start to feel guilty.
It’s really suffocating to have someone you like kiss hands with your bestie!
After kissing his thumb, Gu Tunan raised his head slightly, looked lovingly into Tang Bai’s eyes, and smiled like an elegant gentleman.
Tang Bai: “…” Your partner is about to kill you and you still have the nerve to smile. You are so damn awesome!
“Okay, please rate your partner. After the scoring is completed, the system will automatically assign you a new partner for the next question.” The teacher said loudly after seeing everyone bow.
“I give you full marks.” Gu Tunan nodded to Tang Bai before leaving.
“Thank you, me too.” Tang Bai said softly and perfunctorily.
Gu Tunan really couldn’t fault anything in terms of etiquette, but he was not very keen on love. He was still focusing on finding out what his test scores were, and he didn’t realize that his lover was about to run away.
Tang Bai, who prided himself on being wise, thought with a sense of superiority.
