Chapter 63: 063 The Frank Feng Jia Miaomiao
This Monday, the freshmen finally started classes.
Two English classes in the morning, two Advanced Mathematics classes in the afternoon, each 45 minutes, with a ten-minute break in between, and the rest of the time free. Such a course arrangement was naturally refreshing compared to third year of senior high school.
Moreover, the difficulty of the first day’s courses wasn’t high either. During the first period, both teachers talked about course arrangements and discipline, such as final exam scores accounting for 60% of the final grades, and usual performance scores accounting for 40% of the final grades, occasional spot checks for attendance… things like that. During the second period, the English teacher covered very simple grammar, while the Advanced Mathematics teacher covered basic concepts, like derivatives, which were knowledge thoroughly learned in high school.
After class, Fu Hanwen stretched, smiling. “Is this the difficulty of university? It doesn’t seem like a big deal.”
Tang Hexing put away his mobile phone. “I was browsing Weibo while listening to the class earlier, and I kept up easily.”
As for Wang Ke, he noticed that Wang Heng had already written and drawn three or four pages in his notebook, so he couldn’t help asking, “Teacher Wang, were you taking notes just now?”
Wang Heng shook his head slightly. “I was self-studying the later content.”
He had already forgotten most of the Advanced Mathematics content. Now picking it up from the beginning naturally required extra effort. But after all, it was something he had learned before, so self-studying it wouldn’t be too difficult.
Fu Hanwen patted his shoulder. “As expected of Teacher Wang. You don’t even need to listen to other teachers’ lectures.”
Wang Heng smiled and didn’t say anything.
University is completely different from high school. Thinking the first class is too simple and skipping the second, then not understanding from the third class onward—this is a painful experience many people have had. Moreover, compared to those truly high-difficulty courses, Advanced Mathematics is already relatively simple. When they start learning those truly tricky major courses, they’ll understand what despair is.
Wang Heng casually reminded them, “If you think the teacher is lecturing too simply, you can self-study too.”
“Forget it, let’s go eat dinner first. After eating, we still need to play together…”
Saying this, Fu Hanwen picked up his book, stood up, and was about to leave, but he saw Sun Xing Si coming toward them.
“Eight o’clock is the class meeting,” Sun Xing Si said, rubbing his hands. “Have you all thought it over?”
Fu Hanwen smiled. “Rest assured, the vote is definitely yours.”
Sun Xing Si then came up to Wang Heng and said quietly, “Now you should believe it, right? I really can organize a social gathering for everyone. You went to the one the day before yesterday too, and it felt good, didn’t it?”
Wang Heng: “…”
Good, you originally had one vote, and now it’s gone.
But Sun Xing Si didn’t notice Wang Heng’s meaningful gaze. He turned his head and went to talk to other classmates. Having confidently secured all the votes from dorm 414, it was time to target other classmates.

After dinner, Fu Hanwen, Tang Hexing, and Wang Ke returned to the dormitory first. There was still over an hour until the class meeting, so of course they could play a few rounds first, and Wang Ke could watch two or three more episodes of cute loli anime.
As for Wang Heng, he downloaded a Python e-book and put it on his mobile phone, so there was no need to climb the stairs again. He just sat downstairs of the dormitory building, reading the e-book on his mobile phone.
After a while, he heard a girl’s voice: “Teacher Wang, patrolling here?”
Wang Heng looked up and saw one of the only five girls in the class, and probably the most beautiful among the five. She had short hair similar to Lu Qi’s, a delicate appearance, and her smiling face seemed to carry sunlight, giving a bit of a tomboy feel.
But what was most memorable was this girl’s name—Feng Jia Miaomiao, the person with the longest name in the class.
From memory, before Sun Xing Si dragged everyone to the social gathering, the one who attracted Tang Hexing’s interest was this Feng Jia Miaomiao.
Wang Heng smiled. “Hello, Feng.”
The girl’s originally smiling face stiffened instantly. “My name is Miaomiao, with the double surname Feng Jia.”
Wang Heng was also stunned. “…So, Feng Jia is a surname?”
Feng Jia Miaomiao: “Yes, just like Ouyang, Gongsun, Ximen, it’s a surname.”
Wang Heng: “I really didn’t know, sorry, sorry.”
The girl waved casually. “Forget it, this surname is indeed too rare. It’s normal that you didn’t know. I just wanted to ask, for the class meeting later, who do you plan to vote for?”
So direct?
Almost the first conversation, and she brought up this topic straight away… Wang Heng didn’t even know if he should complain about her speaking too freely with little acquaintance.
Seeing his hesitation, Feng Jia Miaomiao thought he hadn’t decided who to give his vote to yet, and said, “Actually, us girls originally weren’t planning to participate. There are too many boys in this class, and we girls feel a bit awkward. But honestly, Sun Xing Si canvassing votes everywhere really annoys us, so we unanimously decided to stir things up. Anyway, Sun Xing Si isn’t here, so you can speak freely. Did you promise him you’d vote for him?”
Wang Heng: “He did come to me to canvass, but I don’t plan to vote for him.”
Feng Jia Miaomiao couldn’t help being curious. “Why? I heard he organized a social gathering the day before yesterday to gain popularity. Didn’t you go with them?”
Wang Heng sighed. “I went, but I was dragged there by my roommates. I’m not interested in social gatherings or girls, so Sun Xing Si canvassing everywhere… anyway, he won’t get my vote.”
Feng Jia Miaomiao’s eyes lit up. “As expected of Teacher Wang, you’re indeed different from those immature little boys!”
Wang Heng’s mouth twitched. “Are the other boys in our class all immature little boys…”
Feng Jia Miaomiao touched the back of her head. “Sorry, I speak quite directly. Actually, once you get to know me, you’ll find out—my roommates and such all say I have low emotional intelligence.”
As she finished speaking, Wang Heng finally detected a hint of the popular accent from Spring Festival Gala skits in her speech.
So he asked, “You’re from the Northeast?”
Feng Jia Miaomiao nodded. “Yeah! How did you tell?”
“Don’t worry about these details. Anyway, I’ll vote for you then, how about that?”
Wang Heng said not to worry, and Feng Jia Miaomiao really didn’t. She gave a thumbs up. “Good, straightforward!”
Communication done, the girl turned and left. Though not exactly striding like a dragon or tiger, her steps indeed lacked any girl’s grace.
Wang Heng watched her back, his gaze full of appreciation.
Such a girl was much better compared to Han Yixuan, Lu Qi, and the others. At least in terms of sense of security, she was a whole level higher!
“If only all girls were like her,” Wang Heng couldn’t help muttering to himself. “Everyone under heaven is an old iron, everyone is a bro, how great!”
