Chapter 257: Important things first, unimportant things last.
by SunflowerIt had been over ten minutes since noon dismissal, and there were only a few people left in the classroom.
Jiang Nian finished his meal but didn’t buy a drink. After returning to his seat, he bent down and rummaged through Zhang Ningzhi’s desk drawer.
Soon, a box of lemon tea appeared in his hand.
Hehe, life is good again.
Just as he inserted the straw, he looked down and saw a small blackboard sticky note on the desk. It was the kind with a completely black paper surface, like white chalk writing.
The handwriting was delicate and neatly aligned.
“The English test paper is inside your desk. Only do the reading comprehension. It will be discussed in class tomorrow! Math homework: p204, third big question; p205.
P.S. No stealing my drinks, little thief! (Fist) (Warning)!!!”
Jiang Nian drank lemon tea while reading the sticky note, and couldn’t help but laugh when he reached the end.
“You’re too late, I’ve already started drinking.”
It’s a well-known fact that important things are said first. Since it was placed at the end, it must be an insignificant matter, which, rounded up, equals a self-service drink.
Jiang Nian sat in his seat and took out his large math review book from his desk. Following Zhang Ningzhi’s instructions, he found the homework assigned for after class that afternoon.
Everyone else had left, leaving only Huang Fang, who was still hunched over her seat doing problems.
“Aren’t you eating, Fangfang?”
“I’ll go in a bit.”
“Oh, okay.” Jiang Nian continued with his homework.
After a while, Huang Fang indeed got up, glancing at Jiang Nian before leaving.
“Aren’t you eating?”
Jiang Nian raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile.
“Guess when I ate?”
Huang Fang: “…”
At one in the afternoon, Jiang Nian calculated with his fingers, thinking it was strange. Today was Saturday, and it wasn’t Chen Yunyun and her friends’ hair-washing day, yet they weren’t in the classroom for a nap.
Are they getting so lax just because they scored 600 points?
“Hi, how was the psychology lecture this morning?” Yu Zhiyi appeared, sitting directly in her ex-boyfriend’s seat. “What did they talk about?”
Jiang Nian’s eyelids twitched. Isn’t this art coming right up?
After his gaze dropped a few centimeters, he finally looked at the psychology committee member properly.
Strange, he had clearly looked closely at her face just now, so why did he still have no strong impression?
In any case, the other person was very feminine.
“Uh, they talked about a lot of useful things, and it seemed like mostly psychology committee members went.” Jiang Nian casually made something up. “I saw them taking a lot of notes.”
Hearing this, Yu Zhiyi suddenly became nervous.
She had originally just seen Jiang Nian and, out of a sense of duty, simply asked a couple of questions, listened to Jiang Nian say a few uninformative things, and then ended the conversation.
Who knew that this person would blurt out “quite important things.”
Plus, everyone who went was a psychology committee member, and they were all taking notes.
This was directly applying psychological pressure, the kind where the gears were almost bursting.
The subtext: Class 3 of the Olympiad didn’t send a psychology committee member, they were in the classroom. They don’t value the psychology committee member’s job, and the new official forgot her roots as soon as she took office.
“What did they talk about?” she asked hesitantly.
“Didn’t listen.”
Yu Zhiyi almost spat blood. If he didn’t listen, why would he say anything? Heaven knows, earth knows, you know, others don’t know, but you just had to say it.
Now it’s good, she had no choice but to ask.
She swallowed, and out of nervousness, her body leaned slightly forward. Her chest naturally crossed Jiang Nian’s desk and began to bear weight.
“Then did you take notes?”
“Went empty-handed. Oh~ played two games.” Jiang Nian made a V-sign, his tone cheerful. “Zhennan’s number one jungler, pushed the crystal in ten minutes.”
Yu Zhiyi was so enraged that she almost fainted from anger.
“You…”
Jiang Nian’s gaze involuntarily shifted downwards again. Art was here again; he could sleep peacefully during his nap.
“Actually, I did hear some things.”
Hearing this, Yu Zhiyi suppressed her anger.
“Such as?”
“Sigh, some of the mumbling was hard to hear.” Jiang Nian closed his math review book. “The psychology teacher’s voice was quite pleasant, very evocative.”
“Say something useful,” Yu Zhiyi said, exasperated.
“Oh, the psychology teacher’s name is Lan Lan.” Jiang Nian recalled, choosing his words carefully. “She left her phone number after the lecture.”
Yu Zhiyi hesitated for a moment and asked.
“Did you write it down?”
“No, I took a picture.” Jiang Nian pulled out his phone, having already gained Yu Zhiyi’s trust, opened the album, and handed it to the psychology committee member.
“Where is it? Oh, oh, I see it.” Yu Zhiyi took it and looked, then gritted her teeth in anger. “Why did you only take a picture of the psychology teacher! Where’s the phone number?”
Jiang Nian was a little shy. “I don’t photograph things that aren’t good-looking.”
Seeing that Yu Zhiyi was about to explode, Jiang Nian pointed a finger, interrupting her pre-cast incantation, and said, like an Immortal guiding the way.
“But you can go ask Ji Jiayu from the next class. I saw her taking a lot of notes.”
“Alright.” Yu Zhiyi got up and left.
Class Two.
Ji Jiayu looked up at the person in front of her, surprised that Yu Zhiyi had become the psychology committee member. She thought to herself, she’s so pretentious, can she really handle being a psychology committee member?
She curved her eyes and smiled.
“Honey~ what’s wrong?”
Yu Zhiyi was also a little embarrassed. She and Ji Jiayu weren’t really close. She was just forced by circumstances to seek her out. Was she also a psychology committee member?
They broke up and it became a trending topic in the same city. So, if you don’t have psychological problems, you become a psychology committee member, right?
“Hi, Yu-bao, there’s something I wanted to ask you.”
Two minutes later, Ji Jiayu was slightly surprised.
“Didn’t you go?”
Ji Jiayu’s single sentence put immense pressure on Yu Zhiyi, and her expression became even more awkward. She also realized something: the other person’s attitude was not friendly.
“Uh, Jiang Nian went, he told me to come ask you.”
Hearing this, Ji Jiayu said, “Oh.”
“I wrote everything down.”
Saying that, she pulled out a notebook from her drawer.
“Do you have your phone? Take a picture.”
Although Yu Zhiyi was surprised by the change in the other person’s attitude, the priority was still the notes.
“I do, thank you.”
Ji Jiayu didn’t even lift her eyelids, saying lightly.
“No need.”
Lunch break ended.
Jiang Nian woke up from his nap, still groggy, when a figure stood beside him. He looked up and saw Zhang Ningzhi, glaring at him indignantly.
“What’s wrong?”
“Where’s my drink?”
“What drink? Don’t falsely accuse someone who doesn’t like to drink soda.” Jiang Nian, having just woken up, almost instinctively argued, “Do you have any evidence?”
Until Zhang Ningzhi picked up the empty lemon tea carton from his desk.
“Little thief.”
Seeing the physical evidence, Jiang Nian didn’t struggle and immediately raised his hands in surrender.
“I drank it.”
“Hmph!” Zhang Ningzhi couldn’t do anything to him, so she turned and sat down.
Soon, the classroom gradually filled up.
Jiang Nian got up to go to the restroom. On his way back, he met Li Hua. This person was also full of Divine Qi, shouting from afar, and once he got close, he said one sentence.
“Good news, good news.”
“My new seat cushion arrived, I’m also going to live a refined life.” Li Hua pulled out a package from behind him, his face beaming with joy.
“My paper-thin butt is finally saved. Wish me luck, bro.”
The classroom environment was harsh, cold in winter and hot in summer.
After entering senior year, what was even worse was that because students sat for long periods in the classroom, the chairs were a bit hard, and sitting for too long would cause a little pain.
“Let me see.”
Hearing this, Li Hua retreated at light speed, looking at Jiang Nian with vigilance.
“Bro, you…”
“You’re an idiot, I meant your seat cushion.” Jiang Nian was a bit speechless, he was 100% pure. “If the quality is good, I’ll buy one too.”
In fact, he would buy several.
Boss Jiang was wholesaling gifts. Since he wasn’t short on money, and just earned three hundred yuan today, he might as well arrange one for his acquaintances. It was easy enough.
Li Hua thought for a moment, “Too many people in the hallway, let’s look in the classroom.”
The afternoon classes passed.
Self-study.
Jiang Nian flipped through his homework book, wondering if he should buy a seat cushion.
Speaking of which, he didn’t seem to see any of the girls around him buying seat cushions.
Perhaps it was because girls’ bottoms were softer, or their bodies were lighter, so the pressure on the chair was relatively smaller, and they didn’t really need such a thing?
He had already seen the seat cushion Li Hua bought.
How to put it, it was designed for hemorrhoids.
It was even worse than a textbook, at least textbooks were warm in winter and cool in summer. If you sat on them for a long time, the texture of the book would soften and gradually adapt to your shape.
Thinking of this, Jiang Nian couldn’t help but glance at Li Hua’s seat cushion again and said.
“Hua, listen to me, bro.”
“You don’t need to persuade me, my mind is made up.” Li Hua waved his hand, looking like there was no need for further words. “What hidden illness? That’s pure nonsense.”
“Look at this material, this design, the mesh in the middle is hollowed out.”
Hearing this, the two people in the front row turned their heads curiously.
Wu Jun asked, “How much did this cost?”
Li Hua quoted a price, “28.”
“That’s too expensive, it’s just a seat cushion.” Zeng You clicked his tongue slightly, got up and took a look. “It seems like this thing isn’t anything special.”
He once said that the happiest thing he could feel was probably eating instant noodles and singing songs late at night in winter, while also reading a novel.
In short, his desires were very low.
But if it was truly a good deal, Zeng You would not hesitate to spend money.
“Let me see.” Ma Guojun leaned over, took a quick look, “This useless junk is no good. The best way is not to sit all the time.”
“Then I won’t buy it,” Zeng You said, following suit.
Li Hua sneered, “Don’t let me find my cushion under your butts someday!”
Jiang Nian watched for a long time, hesitating.
“I’ll still buy one, but not like Li Hua’s, that’s too impractical.”
Zhang Ningzhi didn’t speak, she just withdrew her gaze.
Jiang Nian noticed her hesitant look, so he proactively asked.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. Why did the group leader buy that kind of seat cushion?” Zhang Ningzhi was a little embarrassed and whispered, “Using it isn’t it very easy to get…”
She didn’t say the last two words.
Jiang Nian didn’t know how to answer either, so he could only vaguely reply.
“I don’t know, maybe… it’s a personal preference.”
“Oh.” Zhang Ningzhi believed him, turned back, and then turned back again shortly after. “Do you want to buy a seat cushion? I know a good one.”
Jiang Nian raised an eyebrow, “Send me the link.”
“No need,” Zhang Ningzhi waved her hand and whispered, “I happen to be buying one too, so…”
