Chapter 331 Why are you still swearing?

Li Hua, who heard Jiang Nian’s arrogant words, immediately turned into a laughing Dragon.

“Bro, you’re a bit funny.”

What the hell, guaranteed win?

Jiang Nian said nothing, snatched the pen from Li Hua’s hand. He tossed it casually, and it drew a graceful curve in the air.

With a clang, it landed in Ma Guojun’s black metal pen holder on his desk.

Li Hua was stunned, unable to speak for a long time.

“Oh! Holy shit?!”

Ma Guojun picked up the thrown pen, his expression unchanged, and put it into his drawer.

“Confiscated.”

“You bastard!” Li Hua roared in anger, but when he turned to look at Jiang Nian, he found that he was already immersed in the world of solving problems.

The big Ma Guojun also ignored him, leaving him all alone.

No love, no pen.

“Damn it!” Li Hua roared. These people were too rude!

As soon as class ended.

The classroom immediately became lively. A group of people gathered in the open area at the back of the classroom and started playing the game of Touhu (pitch-pot).

Most of these people were boys, with only a few girls.

There was no need to queue; it wasn’t that formal. The main thing was an immersive experience, with a group of people holding arrows and throwing them directly.

“Why can’t I get it in?” Yu Zhiyi complained.

“That’s not simple? Just get closer and you’ll be fine.” Sun Zhicheng took an arrow, walked to the pot, and wanted to show off his skill.

After the mountain climbing fiasco last week, he hadn’t been down for too long. The low mood came and went quickly.

After all, he was a man who had experienced online dating; he had been hit so many times that he no longer felt anything.

He called it, frustration desensitization.

Sun Zhicheng simply gave up, planning to distance himself from Chen Yunyun first. He retreated to the friend zone and turned to play with others.

He didn’t need to look around; there were quite a few beautiful girls in the class.

With a flick of his wrist, the arrow hit the edge of the pot and missed.

“Haha, amateur!” Yang Qiming mocked without reservation, “Did you wrap your brain in a foot-binding cloth? It looks quite small.”

Sun Zhicheng, having lost Face, immediately became angry and glared at Yang Qiming.

“What are you comparing? If you’re so good, you do it!”

Clang, the arrow fell into the pot.

“It’s in! It’s in! Brother Yang is amazing.” Huang Cailang applauded vigorously, his Face excited, happier than if he had thrown it in himself.

He knew that when Brother Yang was happy, he loved to treat people, the kind that didn’t expect anything in return.

A pure rich person, not tacky, just rich.

Yang Qiming clapped his hands, looking at the petrified Sun Zhicheng with a playful expression.

“Why aren’t you talking? Did you wrap your cerebellum around your mouth?”

Sun Zhicheng looked aggrieved, having been humiliated by Yang Qiming in front of many girls. His Face had completely fallen to the ground.

He could only leave indignantly.

He swore that if he didn’t avenge this, he wouldn’t be a gentleman; he would definitely get his Face back!

Seeing Sun Zhicheng leave, Yang Qiming’s upturned mouth couldn’t be suppressed. He thought to himself that revenge felt great, and he would do it again next time!

What a fool!

The scene of Sun Zhicheng stealing his thunder at the school gate during the last coming-of-age ceremony was still vivid in his mind.

Finally… a small revenge was achieved!

So, he took advantage of his high spirits and threw a few more rounds. His precise throws attracted everyone’s attention, as well as the exclamations of several girls.

Yang Qiming immediately felt elated. He thought that he would soon represent the class in the competition, and it seemed he had to practice hard these few days!

Thinking of this, he stopped throwing.

Instead, he transformed from an athlete into a coach, starting to condescendingly guide the girls in throwing arrows, like a Grandmaster.

Several boys were a bit annoyed, muttering.

“Damn it, he’s showing off.”

“That dog, he only teaches girls.”

Yang Qiming didn’t mind, thinking, is showing off illegal? He just happened to see Jiang Nian passing by from the back row, seemingly looking for someone.

He immediately perked up, thinking that showing off was only interesting in front of people with good athletic ability, and he could also pull Jiang Nian in to share the firepower.

He shouted, “Jiang Nian, come and throw one!”

“No need, I don’t know how to play.” Jiang Nian waved his hand to refuse, then walked up to Yu Zhiyi and whispered a few words.

“Can I borrow that physics booklet for two more days?”

“Ah? But I also need to look at it; the exam is in a few days.” Yu Zhiyi hesitated for a moment, then her eyes darted around.

“How about this, you teach me how to play Touhu, and I’ll lend it to you until… Thursday night, is that fair?”

It was Tuesday night, and the exam started on Saturday. She only left herself one day for a quick review, which was indeed very fair.

Jiang Nian thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

“Alright.”

He took two arrows from Yu Zhiyi’s hand, pointed at the pot not far in the back row, and said.

“You watch carefully how I throw it later, and just follow along. I can’t say you’ll get it with one look, but it will be as easy as turning over your hand.”

Yu Zhiyi smiled and nodded.

“Okay.”

However, she saw Jiang Nian turn and walk away with the arrows, and her expression immediately froze. At the same time, she had a faint bad premonition.

A few seconds later, Jiang Nian, who had walked to the middle of the classroom, didn’t look back. He continuously blind-threw two arrows backward, which cut through the air in a curve.

Clang, clang.

The arrows accurately fell into the pot one after another, bouncing twice with a clatter.

In an instant, the people playing Touhu in the back row were instantly stunned.

A501, liberal arts class.

Lu Xuan twirled her pen idly, appearing somewhat distracted.

The grand joint exam was approaching, and the grade group had organized a stress-relief game of Touhu. She had no interest in it at all. In the eyes of her classmates, she came from a wealthy family. Her personality was rather cold, always looking unapproachable, but in reality, she was just daydreaming.

With things on her mind, her Face naturally appeared cold.

“This shouldn’t be, we’re clearly in the same class.” Lu Xuan mumbled to herself, not in the mood for this last evening self-study session.

After school, she found Sheng Zeyang.

“Help me ask for someone’s QQ.”

“Who?” Sheng Zeyang took off his headphones, looking confused, “Male or female?”

“Male.”

As soon as he heard it was a male, Sheng Zeyang immediately became alert and asked tentatively.

“The grand joint exam is coming this week, and you still have such thoughts? Is it someone I know? Which class?”

Lu Xuan didn’t doubt him and said directly.

“The science Olympiad class downstairs, named Jiang Nian. You ask that Zhang Xiaofan, he should know. Get it and send it to me.”

After speaking, she left with a heavy heart.

Sheng Zeyang remained standing in place, watching Lu Xuan’s departing back and frowning. After a while, he finally left with his bag.

He mumbled to himself, “That’s strange… Deep night.”

Outside the alley, Xu Qianqian, carrying her bag, flashed past under a street lamp. Jiang Nian followed behind, discussing a math problem.

A moment later, Xu Qianqian turned and said.

“I’m going to tell you a big secret, one you definitely don’t know.”

“What?” Jiang Nian looked puzzled.

“I went to the bathroom during the third evening self-study session, and when I was returning to the classroom, I passed by the office and heard the teachers saying that someone was organizing cheating for the joint exam.”

“Oh, really or fake?”

“How would I know? I only heard a few sentences.” Xu Qianqian snorted, skipping forward.

“However… I estimate the difficulty of this joint exam paper will increase.”

At this point, Xu Qianqian stopped on the concrete alleyway. She turned to look at Jiang Nian behind her, her Face full of worry, “I say, can you still score over six hundred points?”

Hearing this, Jiang Nian’s body stiffened, and he corrected her.

“It’s six hundred and ten points.”

“Pfft!” Xu Qianqian couldn’t help but laugh, “You should first maintain your last score, they will definitely change the exam papers.”

“Only two days? And they can still change the exam papers?” Jiang Nian hesitated.

“Our homeroom teacher said so. She talked to a few top students before school ended.” Xu Qianqian said, “I heard they started investigating cheating early this morning, and it’s already confirmed that the exam papers will be changed.”

“Alright.” Jiang Nian muttered to himself, wondering why Old Liu hadn’t told him.

Does he still want the Star of Inspiration?

Seeing Jiang Nian in a daze, Xu Qianqian couldn’t help but curve her lips, feigning comfort.

“It’s okay, five hundred points is also very impressive.”

Her target score for the bet with Jiang Nian was six hundred and ten points, but she deliberately used scores like five hundred and six hundred to numb Jiang Nian.

This would subconsciously make Jiang Nian accept the six hundred point mark, and he would naturally relax during the exam.

Xu Qianqian was smug about her wisdom; with this, Jiang Nian was bound to lose!

Jiang Nian sighed and shook his head.

“Forget it, I’ll play a game to de-stress when I get home.”

“Mm-hmm, work-life balance.” Xu Qianqian nodded, then added, “I’ll play games when I get home too, want to join?”

“No, I’ll play on my alternate account.” Jiang Nian waved his hand to refuse.

A few minutes later, the two went upstairs simultaneously, twisting their keys to open their doors. They tacitly looked back at each other and smiled wryly in unison.

Bang! Bang!

The doors closed, and Jiang Nian immediately rushed into the bathroom to wash up. He hastily blow-dried his hair, opened his backpack, took out the exam papers, and got to work.

“Six hundred and ten points, who the hell plays games?!”

“Games are not as fun as women. When I win, I’ll just lick to my heart’s content.”

On the other side, Xu Qianqian finished showering.

With a beep, she turned on the air conditioner to heat, then sat at her desk, turned on her small desk lamp, and continued to prepare for battle, her phone running a game idly.

“I’ll beat him by fifty or sixty points, let Jiang Dog see what a Genius is!”

Ding dong!

Lu Xuan glanced at her phone on the desk. First, a string of numbers popped up, followed by a large number of messages from Sheng Zeyang, claiming credit.

He explained how Zhang Xiaofan had deleted Jiang Nian, and how he had found another person, going through several hands to get the QQ number.

She quickly scanned it and replied with one sentence.

“Thank you.”

Sheng Zeyang: “??”

Lu Xuan didn’t reply again. She and Sheng Zeyang had been friends for many years, so there was no need for much explanation.

She copied the QQ number and added him as a friend.

When filling in the verification message, she hesitated for a while. She finally chose the words “Old friend,” thinking that most people would be curious.

Sent successfully.

After about a few minutes, the temporary window shook.

Jiangyue Niannian Wangxiangsi: “Idiot! (Middle finger)”

Lu Xuan was stunned; she had never been cursed at since she was little. She immediately couldn’t take it and had forgotten her initial purpose.

Pat pat pat, she typed.

“Why are you cursing people?”

Jiangyue Niannian Wangxiangsi: “Angry?”

Lu Xuan was indeed a bit angry, but at this moment, she just wanted to reason.

“I know you.”

Jiang Nian: “What era is this that you’re still using this kind of trick? Don’t scammers go to school?”

“I’m not a scammer, I really know you.”

“Know your mother (smile).”

Lu Xuan hadn’t been provoked until she saw that yellow-faced smile; she completely lost it.
