Chapter 332 Can anyone else do this?
by Sunflower“Lu Xuan?”
Under the desk lamp, Jiang Nian put down his pen, not remembering this person at all.
Just delete her.
With a ‘ding’, Lu Xuan sent another message.
“If I’m a scammer, I’m a dog!”
Jiang Nian clicked on her QQ profile again, and seeing a row of SVIPs all activated, his heart suddenly stirred.
Perhaps, he could borrow her membership later.
First, he needed to figure out who she was; he’d forgotten most of his old classmates. Some peripheral people were unremarkable, and their names were hard to recall.
“Your space is locked, and you say you’re not a scammer?”
Seeing this, Lu Xuan hesitated for a moment, then opened her space permissions to Jiang Nian.
“It’s open. Tell me when you’re done looking.”
Jiang Nian saw that message and couldn’t help but scoff. He thought,’So you want me to close it after I’m done looking, huh? You’re really putting on airs.’
He clicked on Lu Xuan’s space and scrolled all the way down. He found that this person really was from Second High, and she had posted quite a few ‘chuunibyou’ (middle-school syndrome) statuses.
“Xiang Ziqing said she was a little fairy, and she was afraid I wouldn’t believe her, so she danced a transformation dance in front of me. I was so embarrassed I automatically did the voice-over for her.”
“Today I licked my hand on the street, imitating a cat demon. Several people looked at me, surely thinking I was a cat demon. (Cool)”
“Can’t solve the problem (laugh-cry), so I thought of Pleasant Goat, and then I bounced around the classroom thinking.”
After reading it, Jiang Nian was silent.
AI really can’t replace humans; what kind of abstract stuff is this?
No wonder she didn’t open her space permissions; she must have blocked everyone, right? Then why didn’t she lock her statuses? Does she not trust Penguin?
After verification, Jiang Nian sent her another message.
“Why is your album locked?”
Lu Xuan: “(Smile) What do you want?”
“To see who you are. Who knows if you’re a scammer who stole an account.” Jiang Nian replied, “Are you opening it or not? If not, I’m deleting you.”
Lu Xuan: “I’m busy (smile).”
“Oh, three.” Jiang Nian began counting down.
On the other end of the phone, Lu Xuan bit her lower lip. To satisfy her curiosity, she had already sacrificed too much, but she really wanted to know.
This was much more addictive than reading a tragic novel on Jinjiang, comparable to a reality dating show.
Finally, she gritted her teeth.
“Fine, I’ll let you see.”
After sending, Lu Xuan opened her photo album. There were no special pictures, just some photos.
At the same time, she sent a message urging, “Are you done looking? Hurry up.”
Jiang Nian looked around and found that he actually had an impression of Lu Xuan’s face. There were many pretty girls in Second High,
and Lu Xuan was one of them.
It was just that her personality was rather reclusive, and it was said that her family background was quite prominent. A few troublemakers had pursued Lu Xuan for a while.
It was said that those few people directly transferred schools, and the matter was dropped.
Of course, that was just hearsay.
He hadn’t expected Lu Xuan to be so ‘chuunibyou’ behind the scenes; he couldn’t even bear to look. Besides being good-looking, she was just a dummy.
“Mhm, I’m done looking.”
Lu Xuan: “You didn’t save them, did you?”
Jiang Nian: “Are you that narcissistic?”
Behind the screen, Lu Xuan’s face turned bright red. She had asked that subconsciously, as she had her pride, but then she thought about it.
In terms of looks alone, Jiang Nian seemed to be in her league, and good-looking people really wouldn’t bother doing such things.
In fact, good-looking people often found partners who were not particularly attractive. It was enough for them to be good-looking; they had no requirements for their partners.
Lu Xuan: “(Sweating) I was just joking.”
However, Jiang Nian did not reply to her.
This made Lu Xuan a little anxious, and she waited for a long time. Finally, she couldn’t help but send a message, testing the other party’s attitude.
“Can I ask you something?”
Five minutes later, Jiang Nian replied.
“I’m sleepy. Tomorrow.”
Seeing this, Lu Xuan suddenly choked. She subconsciously wanted to send something, but remembering her earlier offense… she could only give up.
On the other side.
Jiang Nian didn’t care what Lu Xuan wanted to ask, but he instinctively felt that to deal with such people, he should make them wait a few times.
Sting her a few times, and she would naturally think before speaking.
Next time she looked for him, the communication would naturally go straight to the point. She wouldn’t say unnecessary things and waste time.
As night fell, he tidied up his test papers and went to bed.
The next day.
Jiang Nian woke up early and ran into Zhou Haifei in front of the bun shop.
“Next, what do you want to eat?”
The boss buried his head, taking buns, steam rising from the opened steamer. There were few people on the cold street, and the steamers in the bun shop were stacked high.
“One vegetable bun and one steamed bun,” Zhou Haifei said.
After buying, Zhou Haifei didn’t know whether to wait for Jiang Nian. After all, they knew each other, and there weren’t many people on the street.
If she just left like that, it would seem a bit too unfeeling.
Soon, Jiang Nian walked towards her. He was eating a bun and casually greeted her.
“Help me with a small favor upstairs later, how about it?”
“What?” Zhou Haifei walked in front of him, then behind him, eating her steamed bun a short distance away.
Holding the steaming food in her palm, the sweet taste spread in her mouth. She couldn’t help but feel a little touched, suddenly feeling happy.
She usually ate a powdered steamed bun from the cafeteria; one was for the cheap price, and the other was for convenience, and it could also train her mind.
If she ate too well, she would lose the motivation to study.
Others had a chance to start over; she only had this one chance. If she passed, it was like a fish entering the sea; if she failed, it was an abyss.
To be safe, she didn’t plan to go home for the New Year. She wanted to avoid being kept at home and being pressured into marriage.
“Help me give this notebook to Xu Qianqian. I’m too lazy to go in.” Jiang Nian pulled out a math notebook from his backpack.
Zhou Haifei paused for a moment, then took the notebook.
“Okay.”
Jiang Nian conveniently bought two cups of soy milk and handed one to Zhou Haifei. He didn’t give her a chance to refuse and left directly.
English morning reading.
Li Hua slid into the classroom, just in time to stop Cai Xiaoqing from taking names.
“If sorrow forgets love!”
Ma Guojun was holding a vocabulary book and memorizing words, only because Old Liu suggested that morning self-study in the class start five minutes early for reading.
The English class representative organized it, so he also stood up.
He turned his head and saw Li Hua messing around again, and immediately laughed. After laughing gleefully for a while, he pointed at Li Hua and said,
“These silly kids all look the same. Neither Chinese nor Western medicine works; his intelligence is that of a four or five-year-old.”
“Hey, hey, hey, your tone is a bit arrogant, kid.” Li Hua rushed directly in front of Ma Guojun and started doing a JOJO pose.
Jiang Nian witnessed the whole thing, and also found it amusing, sharply commenting,
“I feel like Li Hua is the kind of idiot who would suddenly sit up in the middle of the night, then sneer at a dark corner, pretending to see ghosts.”
Hearing this, Zeng You and Wu Jun Gu, who were in the front row, turned their heads, instantly breaking out in a cold sweat.
“Damn it, take down the surveillance.” Zeng You gave a middle finger.
“No, did everyone do that?” Wu Jun Gu was a little embarrassed, “I thought… this was very niche.”
“Actually, when I did that, I was almost scared to death. I always felt like someone was watching me in the room, so I thought about trying to deter them.”
Li Hua walked over from the aisle, heard their conversation, and chimed in.
“What’s that? I used to imagine I was a commander on the battlefield. The military situation was urgent, and my most loyal subordinate died.”
“Then in the middle of the night, I was passionately wailing, mourning my subordinate. I cried too loudly and attracted my parents.”
“What happened next?” Jiang Nian asked.
“I was taken to the countryside for a ritual. Damn it, I knelt for three hours. Monks and Daoist priests all came, and the brazier smoke made my eyes hurt.”
As his words fell, everyone in the group burst into laughter.
“I did that too when I was little. After watching ‘Legend of the White Snake,’ I found a white veil, put it on my head, and wandered around the house.”
Zhang Ningzhi was mortified, saying softly,
“My mom was in the bathroom removing makeup in front of the mirror, and she saw a flash of white in the mirror, which scared her into shouting that there was a ghost.”
After everyone finished speaking, they turned to look at Jiang Nian.
Jiang Nian swallowed, “No, why are you looking at me?”
“Let’s hear yours, it must be even more outrageous,” Li Hua said.
“What nonsense are you talking about? I was well-behaved when I was little.” Jiang Nian waved his hand, refusing to reveal any childhood incidents.
Behind her seat, Li Qingrong suddenly looked up.
She remembered once in junior high, she saw Jiang Nian playing’Sunflower Acupoint Tapping Hand’ at the classroom door, striking a pose as shown in the picture.
Then, as soon as he turned around, he was caught by the teacher and was punished to do’Sunflower Acupoint Tapping Hand’ facing the wall for an entire class.
Thinking of this, Li Qingrong couldn’t help but smile softly.
The first and second periods were consecutive English classes, and the whole class was drowsy.
Teacher Xi was explaining 16 grammatical tenses while walking around the classroom. When she returned to the podium, she found Li Hua dozing off.
Her mouth twitched, thinking, ‘Well, well, well.’
So you’re trying to be sneaky, huh?
“Li Hua!” Teacher Xi was furious and immediately called on Li Hua, asking, “For question four, what did you choose?”
Some students who were still listening looked up, bewildered.
Huh? Weren’t we talking about the future perfect continuous tense? Where did the multiple-choice question come from?
They saw someone in the front row standing up groggily and immediately found it amusing. But no one spoke, waiting to see what fun this person would provide.
“Choose… what?” Li Hua had just woken up, his mind not yet clear, and blurted out, “I choose Teacher Wang Feng.”
“Hahahaha!!!”
“Holy crap! Wang Feng!”
At that moment, the class erupted in thunderous laughter.
“Don’t even say it, Hua’s dreams are quite ambitious.” Jiang Nian was the first to kick him while he was down, “He’s already on The Voice stage.”
Ma Guojun grinned, “What song did Li Hua bring? Tell us, brothers, and we’ll vote for you or something.”
Teacher Xi was also quite exasperated, looking at Li Hua meaningfully.
“You have quite the dream, don’t you?”
Li Hua immediately broke out in a cold sweat, thinking, ‘It’s all Jiang Nian’s fault.’ He was doing problems and singing during morning self-study.
“Teacher… no, I mean… choose… C.”
As his words fell, the class burst into laughter again.
“Damn it, choose C!”
“I’m dying of laughter, Dad’s Huabei is inherited by you.”
Even as confused as Li Hua was, he reacted now. There was no multiple-choice question at all; Teacher Xi was completely bluffing him. He immediately felt guilty and muttered to himself.
He thought, ‘How did Teacher Xi become so mean?’
Finally, Li Hua was ‘rewarded’ with standing for a whole class. He slinked to the back row, not sad at all, because,
Physical Education class.
There was PE class at noon, a once-a-week anticipation.
Monday and Tuesday were for tests and reviewing test papers, Wednesday was PE class. Thursday was a grind, Friday was for watching Newsweek, and then the weekend directly!
The grand joint exam!
One week, actually, when counted, wasn’t that hard to get through.
After all, most of the time was taken up by exams, and during the remaining time, they could find points to breathe, surfacing to blow bubbles.
During the third period, math class, everyone in the class was a bit distracted.
Today was a bright sunny day, and a large patch of sunlight from the classroom door encroached upon the podium.
Li Qingrong stared at the patch of sunlight in the corner of the blackboard, lost in thought, thinking about playing badminton later, and her mood immediately brightened.
“Get the ball! Get the ball! Occupy the court!”
“Are you playing table tennis?”
“Of course, I’m Little Dragon.”
“Damn it, I’m Ryoma Echizen!”
Sunlight filled the entire classroom, a bright and clear light. The classroom was chaotic, everyone busy rushing downstairs to occupy a spot.
Li Qingrong picked up her badminton racket and paused before leaving her seat.
“I’m going down first.”
“Mhm, okay.” Jiang Nian made a ‘K’ gesture.
After the class monitor left.
Zhang Ningzhi rested her head on her desk, staring at Jiang Nian. Her gaze was a bit resentful, as if her intelligence had regressed to the age of seven or eight.
“You made plans with the class monitor?”
“Ah… is that so? Wh… what’s wrong?” Jiang Nian was a bit overwhelmed by her stare and stammered. Zhang Ningzhi immediately puffed up, angrily saying,
“Big liar, you stood me up last time!”
