64 You’re Still Young, Don’t Mess Around

Under Teacher Tian Wenming’s lead, the few of them went to the data center to get their competition passes.

As He Hongyun was a local of Tianbao City, he went home after receiving his competition pass.

The others went to the front desk of the hotel together. Tian Wenming made arrangements for them. “Jian Qingli, Ding Ling, the two of you will stay in one room. Li Chengqian and Zhao Peng will stay in one room.”

As they were on a school trip, the accommodation was paid out of school funds. They were thus on a budget and could only stay in a standard room.

“Teacher Tian, I need to inform you that due to some special circumstances, I need to stay alone.” He had received a call from Qin Datong earlier, asking him to prepare to go to the provincial office on Monday to conduct a demonstration of the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software. He was also asked to submit a report within a day.

Apart from this, he still had to continue writing the core code of the Divine Dragon Operating System at night. When the time came, he would need to use the Mental Coding skill.

He absolutely couldn’t allow anyone to see the epileptic-like state he would be in.

Seeing that Tian Wenming seemed to be considering his request, Li Chengqian hurriedly said, “Teacher Tian, don’t worry. I’ll pay for the accommodation myself. I won’t use the school’s funds.”

“That’s not what I mean,” Tian Wenming said solemnly. He first glanced at Li Chengqian, then at Ding Ling. Although he didn’t say anything, his gaze said it all.

He felt that Li Chengqian had other motives for staying in a room alone.

Because of Tian Wenming’s gaze, Ding Ling’s face instantly turned red. Even her ears turned red.

Zhao Peng whistled and had a mischievous smile on his face.

Jian Qingli was visibly upset. She didn’t say a word and looked at Li Chengqian, wanting to see how he would respond.

Bi Jialiang’s eyes lit up as he secretly sized up Jian Qingli. There was desire burning in his eyes.

“Teacher, you’ve misunderstood. I really have something on.” Li Chengqian didn’t have any bad intentions at all. However, now that this happened, his heart skipped a beat and he started having some thoughts.

At the age of 17 or 18, teenagers’ hormones are raging and they are filled with fantasies about the opposite sex.

Although Li Chengqian had been reborn and his mentality was that of an adult, his body was only 17 years old.

Tian Wenming stared into Li Chengqian’s eyes for about 10 seconds. Seeing Li Chengqian’s determined gaze, he agreed because he felt that even if he didn’t agree now, Li Chengqian would still move out to stay alone later.

“I agree to let you stay alone. However, you’re still young and shouldn’t mess around,” Tian Wenming instructed seriously.

After he heard this, Zhao Peng burst out laughing, and he even whistled as he laughed.

Ding Ling’s face was flushed. She was extremely shy, but she had to pretend to be calm. However, she no longer dared to look straight at him. She kept looking down at her toes and her heart was pounding.

She didn’t know if it was because she was nervous or shy, but her body was tense and she felt like she was about to stiffen.

When Jian Qingli heard this, her face turned red. She secretly cursed in her heart. “I used to think that Teacher Tian Wenming was quite honest. I didn’t expect him to be a bad person.”

“No, I have to keep an eye on Ding Ling. I can’t let her leave the room.”

“If she and Li Chengqian really sleep together, I won’t have a chance.” Jian Qingli thought about it and found the crux of the issue.

“Ding Ling, let’s go to our room first.” Jian Qingli pulled Ding Ling along. She picked up the room card from the front desk and walked towards the elevator. As she walked, she turned around and said to Tian Wenming, “Teacher, we’ll go up first.”

As Jian Qingli spoke, she looked at Li Chengqian with a faint smile. There was smugness in her eyes as if she had won the battle. It was as if she was saying to Li Chengqian, “I’m keeping my eyes on Ding Ling, you can’t do anything with her.”

Li Chengqian watched as Ding Ling disappeared into the elevator. While he felt lost, he also became hopeful. His heart started palpitating. “Will she really come looking for me tonight?”

Bi Jialiang looked crestfallen as he watched Jian Qingli leave.

When Li Chengqian proposed that he stay alone, his heart was also thumping. He became even more excited after hearing what Teacher Tian Wenming said.

At night, if Dingling went to Li Chengqian’s room…

Jian Qingli would be all alone in her room.

This way, his chances were much higher. He didn’t dare to think too deeply now. It would be a blissful thing even if Jian Qingli let him enter the room only to chat.

If something else happened along the way, that would be wonderful.

However, Bi Jialiang could clearly see that Jian Qingli did not even look at him when she left. Jian Qingli’s beautiful eyes were fixed on Li Chengqian.

“The person Jian Qingli is paying attention to is Li Chengqian.” This thought made him extremely upset.

“I must do better than Li Chengqian in this competition. I must defeat Li Chengqian.” Bi Jialiang was still very confident in defeating Li Chengqian. Not only did he think so, but his teammate, He Hongyun, also felt the same way.

“I will prove that I am better than Li Chengqian!”

“Bi Jialiang, what are you thinking about?” Tian Wenming patted Bi Jialiang when he saw him staring blankly at the elevator.

Bi Jialiang came back to his senses and his expression turned bitter.

Only then did he remember that he was sharing a room with Teacher Tian Wenming.

At night, even if Ding Ling really went to look for Li Chengqian, with Tian Wenming and in their room keeping an eye on him, he had no way of going to Jian Qingli’s room.

“Teacher, I want to stay alone too. What do you think?” Bi Jialiang asked tentatively.

“No!” Tian Wenming refused without hesitation. Then, he said, “I’m going to check your progress tonight. Have you mastered the key points highlighted by Dr. He yesterday?”

Under the influence of his hormones, Bi Jialiang suggested unwillingly, “Teacher, we can do the test first. After the test, let me stay alone, okay? You’ve already agreed to let Li Chengqian stay alone. You must be fair.”

“No!” Tian Wenming rejected Bi Jialiang flatly and then dealt him a fatal blow. “Li Chengqian’s results allow him to choose any university in the country. Can you do that? Your only chance is the Junior Informatics Programming Competition. Do you understand?”

After Tian Wenming said this, Bi Jialiang kept quiet and didn’t mention staying alone again.

Seeing Bi Jialiang’s defeated expression, Tian Wenming spoke again, “There’s another very important reason. I think your team has a chance of entering the top 50 in the country, which is why I’ve put in so much effort on your team. You have to cherish this opportunity. Seize it and your life will be very different. You have a long journey ahead and there will be plenty of opportunities.”

After Bi Jialiang heard this, he perked up and no longer looked dispirited. “Thank you for your support, Teacher. I’ll definitely work hard.”

Although Tian Wenming didn’t state explicitly, Bi Jialiang understood Tian Wenming’s hidden message. Tian Wenming felt that he had a chance of entering the top 50, and that was why he took the trouble to invest his efforts on him.

As for Li Chengqian, he was not hopeful, therefore Tian Wenming left him to his own devices and couldn’t be bothered at all.

After Li Chengqian and the others got their room cards, Tian Wenming once again emphasized the time of the competition and the things to take note of.

The theory test was in the morning. They have to be at the examination hall at 8:30, the official test starts at 9, and ends at 11.

The hands-on programming test was in the afternoon. They have to be at the examination hall at 2, the official test starts at 2:30 and ends at 5:30.
