What to do if you are spotted by the straight man next door

After a week of class, Su Bin found his rhythm a little bit. He is not a top student, but he is a fairly self-conscious person in his studies.

There are basically no fixed textbooks for several courses, because the professors said that the textbooks published by the publishing house cannot keep up with the changes of this era. Except for some classic theories, all financial cases are collected and prepared by the professors according to the current situation. What is said in this class may be completely overturned in the next class... It's so sour and exciting.

In addition to the freshly released courseware and materials, the professors will also recommend some reading lists for students after each class, and they even said maliciously: "You may dabble in the exam~!"

Su Bin couldn't help but wailed: "Ah~ I'm worried that I'm going to fail!" This is the first time the word "fail" appears in Su Bin's life dictionary...

Sun Yujie comforted him from the side: "You won't die."

Su Bin didn't understand why Sun Yujie was so sure.

Sun Yujie said: "As long as you can understand half of what the professor said, and then review carefully before the exam, you will definitely pass, because there are some questions on the exam paper that guarantee the minimum score, and even an idiot can do it."

Su Bin imagined Sun Yujie's so-called "an idiot can do it" question, and asked: "Is it similar to 'write the four major research results of finance'?"

"No..." Sun Yujie coughed lightly, and said, "It's a question asking you to choose the teacher's photo."

Su Bin: "..."

Sun Yujie glanced at Su Bin, who was speechless, and said, "Don't look at the stupid question, the classmate I mentioned to you last time, he didn't answer, and he called me the day after the exam to ask me , Is the old man who studied basic finance the one with the bald head... In fact, the class is taught by a female teacher."

Su Bin: "Hehe."

Well... who is the one who spread the rumor that foreign universities are "lenient in entry and strict in exit"?How can such a mentally handicapped question fail Su Bin, who has been tested for so long!

Sun Yujie seemed to have guessed what Su Bin was thinking, and explained: "Actually, it's easy to get an undergraduate degree when you go to university here. The difficult thing is to get a high grade point."

Su Bin: "What do you mean? Tell me more about it!"

Sun Yujie said: "Universities in country B generally issue degree certificates of different grades according to the students' test scores. For our major, a score of 40 or above is considered a pass, a score of 60 or above is second-class, and a score of 70 or more is first-class. Only by obtaining a second-class or higher degree certificate can you continue to apply for a better school to receive better education, and a third-class degree certificate is almost useless. Some companies in country B see a third-class degree certificate and basically pass it directly. By default, you have not studied What."

"Is that so..." Su Bin wondered, "What's the use of the third-class graduation certificate?"

Sun Yujie: "Pretentious."

"..." Sun Yujie was so sharp that Su Bin was speechless.

Sun Yujie said: "It is useful to take this graduation certificate back to China, because most Chinese people only look at the school they graduated from, not the degree level. You can take the English certificate back and verify it in Chinese. 'Graduate of M University' sounds very cool. One thing...so many people in China came out to 'gold-plate', that's the reason."

Su Bin silently thought, I am also here for gold plating... But why do I feel a little shameful now... QAQ?

Sun Yujie continued: "Besides, the students here have to rate the teacher every year. Some bad ones may give the teacher a bad rating because they haven't studied hard, and even tell the committee that the topic is beyond the standard, which is very detrimental to the teacher. …Therefore, smart professors will propose some relatively simple questions in order to please students and ensure the lowest pass rate for students.”

Why does it feel like a buyer making a bad review to make things difficult for the Taobao shopkeeper?

In fact, it is right to think about it, the tuition is so expensive...students are also consumers.

...But you can't give the teacher a bad review because of your own reasons?Su Bin wiped his sweat.

In China, the opposite is true. Although Su Bin’s provincial university also has a system for grading teachers, Chinese people pay attention to respecting teachers. As long as the teacher is not too much, the students will respect and try to give the teacher high marks.Of course, you can't ignore the students' mentality that they will make things difficult for the teacher if you give the teacher a low score. It is also common for students and their parents to flatter teachers.

"Didn't you come to exchange?" Sun Yujie said, "The meaning of 40 points and 70 points in the test is the same!"

Sun Yujie is right, as long as Su Bin doesn't fail the course, he can transfer his credits back to China smoothly, and Su Bin has no plan to continue his master's degree, so it doesn't matter whether his grade point is high or low. In this way, isn't he... very relaxed ?

...Well, let's study hard, after all, the tuition is very expensive! -_-#

There was no class in the afternoon, so Su Bin went to Chinatown to replenish dry goods, and Sun Yujie also went with him, and the two had a meal at a nearby Chinese restaurant by the way.

Seeing the Chinese coming and going, Su Bin felt in a trance, as if he was not abroad, but in China.

So I chatted with Sun Yujie about the canteen again, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt that if there was a Chinese canteen near M University, the business would definitely be booming!

"Hey, I used to think that I could make money by studying finance, but after I really learned it, I don't think I will ever use the advanced theories we learned in class..." Sun Yujie looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, He showed that half-bright and half-nympho expression again, "It makes sense for someone like Cheng Ang to study this kind of major."

The corner of Su Bin's mouth twitched: "What does his family do?"

Sun Yujie: "The one who runs a group company seems to be doing foreign trade..."

Su Bin: "Amazing!"

Sun Yujie sighed and said dejectedly: "Hey, my parents are ordinary self-employed professionals in China. Although the family has a little money, but to put it bluntly, they are all bumpkins."

"Hahahaha, I'm just like you..." Su Bin couldn't help thinking of his father, and laughed nervously.

Sun Yujie asked suspiciously, "Then tell me, what are we going to do after we study finance? Do you want to start your own company?"

"Starting a business is not that simple!" Su Bin recalled that last year at the Provincial University, an alumnus who had successfully started a business came back to give a speech. In addition to a far-sighted vision, you must have the physique of a porter, the stamina of a cleaner, and the mentality of a migrant worker... Only the entrepreneur knows the hardships of starting a business. The world will not let you become a boss just because you become a boss. You take it easy.

Su Bin felt that the alumnus was right. He sighed and said, "I have no other reason to study this. I just think this major is quite popular in China. It should be easier to find a job after graduation."

He has no ambitions for his career, his biggest dream at present is to propose to Chen Xiaotian, and then build a home of his own, which is warm, sweet and enjoyable.

Su Bin knows that this kind of thinking is very "little man", and it may be dismissed by most people, but this is his truest wish, "Hey, in fact, living is a thing that I can't understand, why think so much, be happy Just do it!"

Su Bin comforted himself and comforted Sun Yujie at the same time.

This time, instead of going to the Chinese supermarket last time, Su Bin changed to another Asia-Pacific supermarket, and found that there were a lot of foods imported from Japan, such as seaweed, sushi rice, wasabi and the like.

Su Bin each picked some, and Sun Yujie saw them and asked, "What are you buying this for?"

"Make sushi and rice balls," Su Bin said, taking another bottle of sushi vinegar, "I haven't done it before, so I'll give it a try when I go back." He also thought of it temporarily.

Sun Yujie's eyes glowed: "You know how to make sushi? Are you so good?"

Su Bin thought, what's so great about making sushi, isn't it just cooking some rice, wrapping it in seaweed, and cutting everything...

"Make something and try it first. If it's delicious, I'll bring it to you tomorrow!" Su Bin said generously.

Sun Yujie was already looking at Su Bin expectantly, making Su Bin feel that he would be sorry for his expectations if he didn't make a few dinners at night.

Because of Sun Yujie being with him this time, Su Bin no longer lost his way like a fool. After returning home, Su Bin put away his things, cooked sushi rice, and sat down on the sofa with exhaustion...

"Ouch!" The tailbone was suddenly blocked by a hard object. Su Bin gritted his teeth and reached out to touch it. He found a thick and old black hardcover book. Su Bin thought it was the Oxford Dictionary and turned it over. Seeing the cover, I almost threw the book out with trembling hands... I saw a white skull debossed on the cover!

……Depend on!What kind of book is this!

Su Bin took a closer look at the words under the skull, "TOXICANT"?

The words looked familiar. Su Bin flipped through the book and found that the book was written in the form of entries, but he didn't know what it had to do with the skull.

Su Bin couldn't remember the meaning of the word on the cover, so he quickly checked the electronic dictionary in his phone...

----

Toxicant, [noun] poisonous substance, poison; poisonous agent

----

Su Bin: "..."

So, this is an "encyclopedia of poisons"?This, who the hell is this book QAQ?

Just as I felt my back was getting chills, out of the corner of my eye I suddenly caught sight of a figure coming down the stairs, silently, whoever it was if it wasn't Ellen!

"It turned out to be here..." Ellen saw the book Su Bin put on the coffee table, and reached out to take it back.

Su Bin: "...Is it yours?"

"Yeah." Ellen didn't deny it, and sat down next to Su Bin with the thick book in her arms, and said, "Chat with you for a while."

Su Bin: "..." (Wu A Wu) Let's talk about your sister!

Ellen thought for a while and said, "I remember last time you mentioned 'West Lake' and a 'tower', and also mentioned some legends, then what?"

Su Bin was speechless and asked the sky, last time he was about to tell Ellen the story of the White Snake, Yang Chengzhe and the others came back... But now he doesn't want to tell any stories about Lao Shizi at all, he wants to know what Ellen is doing Yes, what to study, why do you read this kind of book related to poison!

But Ellen started something else, and Su Bin didn't know how to divert it, so he could only mentally fill in the "Encyclopedia of Poisons" while recalling the "Legend of the White Snake" he had read before.

He started with Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing cultivating human form. Because the names are difficult to translate, he directly said that they are a white snake and a green snake. The two snakes have lived on the mountain for 1000 years and have become spirits.

Ellen seemed to be particularly interested in this story, and she was much more energetic than when she chatted with Su Bin last time. Unfortunately, he knew too little about Chinese culture, and from time to time asked some questions that Su Bin didn't know how to answer.

For example, when Su Bin mentioned the thousand-year-old white snake, Ellen was very curious: "What kind of snake can live so long?"

Su Bin said speechlessly, "I don't know what kind of snake it is, anyway, it's a white snake..."

Ellen reluctantly accepted this setting, and asked again: "What is 'becoming a spirit'? Is it a kind of magic?"

Su Bin: "But, you can understand it this way..."

It's just a legend, the important thing is the plot, don't care about so many details, okay TAT?

"In short, the snake turned into a beautiful woman, and then on a rainy day, she met a young man who sold medicine on a bridge in the West Lake..." Su Bin glanced unconsciously at this point. Glancing at "TOXICANT" in Ellen's hand, he found that there seemed to be black and red stains on the pages of the closed hardcover book, which were similar to blood oxidized stains... Su Bin trembled, and bad associations came up again. Search your guts and tell stories, don't think about it!

...... Stumbled and stumbled and finally finished the story, Su Bin's brain cells died.

Ellen listened with gusto, immersed in the aftertaste of the story for a long time, and suddenly expressed her thoughts quietly: "That white snake is really pitiful. She lived for 1000 years, but she was carried in the hands of a human. The human betrayed her. Lied her to drink, let her show her original shape, and then abandoned her and went to become a monk... Although the ending of the story is good, I feel that those "good" are all fake," Ellen's eyes rarely showed With a tinge of sadness, he sighed, "Evil monsters fall in love with humans, and none of them will end well."

Su Bin was a little surprised. He thought Ellen was the kind of person who didn't know how to show his emotions on his face. He didn't expect him to have such an emotional side...

Thinking of this, Ellen's eyes narrowed suddenly, and he said coldly, "If I were the snake demon in that story, I would never be as kind as her." His eyes turned gentle again, "I If I have a lover, I must firmly bind him, restrain him, not allow him to test me, let alone let him leave me... If he betrays me, I will eat him bite by bite..."

Ellen looked at Su Bin with a smile, "In this way, we can be together forever."

Su Bin: "..."

Does he, he said "eat" eat people as, as "food" QAQ?

There is no way to communicate with the dark people of the Three Views. How to break orz...
