Chapter 171: Spit, Spit, Spit, that’s just how we Blastoise are.

Yu Zhiyi was stunned; it was rare for her to be rejected so directly.

“I’m begging you, this is very important to me.”

“No, this isn’t important to me.” Jiang Nian was noncommittal; he never did boring things. “You want to ask about Wu Jungu, right?”

“Yes.” Yu Zhiyi nodded. “Are you willing to help?”

“Of course.” Jiang Nian nodded, sighing, “I can’t believe you don’t even have his contact information. Come on, I’ll push his QQ to you.”

Yu Zhiyi: “.”

For a moment, she didn’t know what to say. She always felt that Jiang Nian looked down on her, treating her like air or giving her the cold shoulder.

“I’ll only ask a few questions, it won’t take up too much of your time.”

Jiang Nian glanced at her, extremely uncooperative.

“You know it’ll take up my time, so what’s in it for me to answer you?”

Yu Zhiyi clenched her fingers, thinking to herself, *this person is so harsh*.

“What do you want? I can send you a red packet, or treat you to bubble tea?”

“No need, the money I have saved now is enough for me to not eat or drink for the rest of my life.” Jiang Nian refused. “You mentioning money, that’s looking down on me. There’s no talking to you.”

“Bye-bye.” He turned and left.

In the corridor, Yu Zhiyi was completely bewildered by Jiang Nian’s series of moves.

She had never seen such a shameless person; he had said all the good and bad things himself.

“No!” She instinctively grabbed Jiang Nian, missing his clothes, and with a smooth *pa* sound, caught his wrist.

Jiang Nian turned back, looking at her with some impatience.

“Do you have a problem?”

To Yu Zhiyi, this person in front of her, besides being good-looking, was exactly the image of a fierce boy in her mind, as he constantly went against her.

When Jiang Nian’s tone turned cold, Yu Zhiyi subconsciously let go of his hand.

“S-sorry.”

“Just don’t bother me, go find someone else.” Jiang Nian had no good feelings for Yu Zhiyi. “What am I to you? Why should I help you with this small favor?”

“I—” Yu Zhiyi was dumbfounded. “Didn’t you last time too? I just wanted to ask.”

Jiang Nian was speechless and said directly.

“I was in a good mood back then, so I just let it slip. I’m in an average mood now, why should I say anything? Wu Jungu is my brother, after all.”

If he got no benefit and sold out his brother, how could he live with himself? He wasn’t cheap; he knew who was close and who was distant.

Was it just to hear a ‘thank you’ from you?

Damn it, what a waste of time.

Hearing this, Yu Zhiyi also felt a bit embarrassed, her face flushing.

“I thought you…”

“Thought what? That my relationship with him isn’t good?” Jiang Nian glanced at her. Yu Zhiyi’s thoughts were too easy to guess, completely unlike Zhou Yuting.

“Yeah.” Yu Zhiyi nodded.

“My relationship with Wu Jungu is pretty good, he just doesn’t talk much usually.” Seeing Yu Zhiyi admit it, Jiang Nian didn’t want to continue making things difficult for her.

“He might also be in a bad mood recently, so he’s even more silent, seems to be burying himself in studying.”

Yu Zhiyi was silent for a moment, then spoke.

“We broke up.”

“Huh? Who asked you?” Jiang Nian glanced at her, leaning on the corridor railing. “Don’t add drama for yourself; even if you got married, it wouldn’t concern me.”

Hearing this, Yu Zhiyi didn’t dare to say anything.

She realized Jiang Nian was right; his answering was a favor. If she offended him, it would be normal for him to say nothing at all.

After thinking for a moment, Yu Zhiyi cautiously, mimicking him, leaned on the railing, feeling a bit heavy.

“Can I ask something else?”

She looked over, only to find Jiang Nian pressing against the railing, listening to something. It seemed he was listening to people talking downstairs. Downstairs… it should be 303. Who was he listening to?

“Yes, wait for me a moment.” Jiang Nian turned his head and instructed.

“Okay.” Yu Zhiyi was confused.

She watched Jiang Nian walk into the classroom, a bottle of mineral water in his hand. She couldn’t help but feel a headache; this person was driving her crazy.

His words lacked logic, and his behavior was particularly abstract.

Yu Zhiyi observed his expression and cautiously asked.

“Excuse me… can I ask now?”

Jiang Nian walked back and forth in the corridor, seemingly choosing a spot. Without turning his head or even looking at Yu Zhiyi, he unscrewed the bottle cap and said.

“Yes, ask away.”

She thought for a moment, then quickly caught up with Jiang Nian and asked nervously.

“Has he said anything these past few days?”

“What?”

“Just… about me… things.” Yu Zhiyi was a bit uneasy, not wanting to be seen as selfish, but she was indeed more concerned about her reputation.

She understood that love wasn’t everything in life, and returning to her original class, she had to continue studying hard, otherwise staying in school would be meaningless.

Boys, it seemed, didn’t really like realistic girls.

“No, he didn’t say anything.” Jiang Nian’s face showed no contempt, nor any unusual expression. “You can communicate with him yourself.”

Yu Zhiyi paused for a moment, both surprised by his reaction and awakened by his words.

Indeed, with Wu Jungu in this state, direct communication would be best. It would be good for both parties; otherwise, being in the same class later, seeing each other constantly, would be awkward.

If they didn’t clear things up, Wu Jungu would likely be ruined.

Thinking of this, Yu Zhiyi couldn’t help but want to thank Jiang Nian.

Sincerely.

However, just as she was about to speak, she saw Jiang Nian leaning out over the railing. She couldn’t help but feel curious; why had Jiang Nian been looking downstairs since just now?

Out of curiosity, Yu Zhiyi also poked her head out over the railing.

Below the Senior Three Building, there was nothing, not even many people coming and going. After all, it was almost lunchtime, and those who were going home or back to their dorms had mostly returned.

She only heard a bustling sound, which sounded like two girls’ voices.

Soon after, Zhou Yuting and another girl walked out from below the building.

Yu Zhiyi immediately recognized her; wasn’t this the girl who had switched classes with her at noon? What was her name, Zhou something-Ting, she looked quite bitchy.

She was watching intently when she suddenly heard a *poof* sound.

A large string of sparkling water droplets, from the air… no, from someone’s mouth, spit out, tracing a wide parabolic arc in the air.

Yu Zhiyi was stunned; she could even imagine the second before, someone’s cheeks must have puffed up like a frog, trying to load as much ‘ammunition’ as possible.

What in the world!

He!!! What was he doing?

She turned her head and saw Jiang Nian running away. Her pupils suddenly contracted, and she abruptly realized something, quickly pulling her body back as well.

Sure enough, the next second, two girls’ screams came from downstairs.

“Who is it! Who splashed water!”

“How boring!”

“So annoying!”

Yu Zhiyi hid behind a corridor pillar, her heart pounding. Her pupils dilated infinitely, thinking, *they shouldn’t have seen me just now, right?*

It wasn’t her who did it!

It was… how could Jiang Nian be so abstract!

In the corridor, where was his figure?

Jiang Nian casually threw the mineral water bottle into the trash can by the toilet door, then turned and entered the toilet to relieve himself.

Spitting on Zhou Yuting, satisfying!

It seemed some innocents were affected; he also sprayed Zhou Yuting’s plastic best friend.

Double happiness!

Who cares so much? Constantly worrying about this and that. If he had to worry about being reported or if it was inappropriate just for spitting water, he might as well hang himself.

“Classmate, was that your spit? We have surveillance footage as proof.”

“You’re looking for Jiang Nian, what does that have to do with me, Blastoise?”

“I’m Squirtle’s dad, Blastoise! All I do all day is spit, spit, spit. That’s our daily life as Blastoise.”

As for Yu Zhiyi, although Jiang Nian’s gaze occasionally drifted to her ‘Dumplings’, he still had a certain level of composure, not even needing the Pure Heart Incantation.

Don’t ask why, it’s from playing Azur Lane.

Even D-cups look small.

Returning to the classroom, he began preparing for his pre-lunch break practice questions. After all, whether Zhou Yuting moved up a class or not didn’t affect his daily practice.

His goal wasn’t to compete with trash like Zhou Yuting. *Hiss*. Now he was even using the word ‘compete’, unknowingly he was already approaching the ‘Li Hua Line’.

The so-called “Li Hua Line” was the first standard everyone faced after entering the Olympiad Class. Only by surpassing Li Hua could one be called a Prodigy.

Below Li Hua, all were ants.

Don’t talk about good grades, don’t talk about talent; just pick a decent university and be done with it. As far as exams go, this life is pretty much set.

【This is Mathematics, this is English, this is Chinese. This is Comprehensive Science. Alright, you have correctly identified all subjects, your talent is unmatched!

Your first opponent is Li Hua, who scored near perfect in Comprehensive Science and Mathematics.

Please defeat him.】

Crossing the “Li Hua Line” and looking up, you see nothing but Geniuses.

Will these people achieve fame and success upon entering university?

Not necessarily.

Not necessarily *not*.

Yu Zhiyi worried and feared for a while before finally adjusting her heavy heart and returning to the classroom.

As soon as she entered, she found that Jiang Nian was actually diligently doing problems.

She suddenly felt… that her whole life had been willful. Meeting someone like Jiang Nian was perhaps her retribution, and past mistakes should be forgiven.

Just as she was thinking this, a beautiful girl with hair covering her face suddenly entered through the doorway and sat directly in Wu Jungu’s seat.

Huh?

Yu Zhiyi was confused; why did this girl look so familiar? Before her emotions could surge, she saw the beautiful girl, with her hair still covering her face, turn towards Jiang Nian in the back seat.

Chen Yunyun?

“Hey! What are you writing?” Chen Yunyun reached out to obstruct his view.

“Physics.”

Jiang Nian finished speaking, then looked up at her.

“Finished washing your hair?”

“Yes, can’t you tell?” Chen Yunyun spread her hair, her eyes bright.

“Let me smell. Did you steal my laundry detergent to wash your hair?”

“You’re the one who washes your hair with laundry detergent!” Chen Yunyun was furious.

She had specifically changed her shampoo, and this person really couldn’t appreciate the finer things.

“You know what, you’re right, when I was little in my hometown, I really did use laundry detergent to wash my hair.” Jiang Nian put down his pen and started chatting. Anyway, he wouldn’t do the Physics problems even if they were there.

Chat for a few minutes, then grab Chen Yunyun to help him with the problems.

“Washing hair with laundry detergent?” She was stunned, and sympathy involuntarily showed in her eyes. “Jiang Nian, I can’t believe you had such a hard childhood.”

“Yeah, it was really hard when I was little.” Jiang Nian sighed. “My mom saw it and beat me for three days straight.”
