Chapter 336 You mean you can play all day without a phone? What is so fun?

Zhou Yuting was in a daze, not even knowing how she left the school gate.

“Can’t we find another way?”

Ahead, Jiang Nian didn’t look back, his figure disappearing into the night.

“No.”

She gritted her teeth, rushed in front of Jiang Nian, and blocked his path.

“Why won’t you give me a chance?”

“Alright, then you go explain to the teachers in the academic affairs office and see if they’ll give you a chance.”

Jiang Nian walked around her and continued forward.

Zhou Yuting was stunned; between two evils, she had to choose the lesser. If she really had to choose, she would still choose to set Liu Feipeng up.

After all, she was involved in the class promotion exam and didn’t dare to gamble on the school’s attitude. Even if she avoided punishment, it would still be a devastating blow.

But setting up Liu Feipeng didn’t matter; he was already a pawn. Now, no matter how bad the situation got, it would just mean tearing off the facade. After she recovered her senses, she went to chase Jiang Nian again.

She found that he was already preparing to ride away, and her face instantly changed.

“Hey, I haven’t gotten on yet!”

With a screech, Jiang Nian braked. He waited for Zhou Yuting, who was out of breath from running, to catch up, then he spoke, “Take a taxi.”

With that, he was gone in a flash.

In the night wind, Zhou Yuting stood blankly on the road outside the school.

Looking at the taillights disappearing into the distance, she was so angry her teeth almost shattered.

“Bastard!”

She knew very well that Jiang Nian’s attitude was tantamount to telling her that if she couldn’t handle this, there would be no friendship to speak of.

Actually, she misunderstood.

Jiang Nian didn’t care about Zhou Yuting’s thoughts at all, and he didn’t even care if she could handle it; he just needed Zhou Yuting to be present.

A tool is just a tool; who cares about a tool’s thoughts?

As for why he didn’t give Zhou Yuting a ride, it was because Jiang Nian understood Zhou Yuting too well.

If he softened his attitude even a little, Zhou Yuting would immediately start bargaining with him.

Having been together for many years, Jiang Nian not only knew how to increase her favorability but also how to provoke negative emotions and pour cold water on her.

Upon arriving at the KTV.

Jiang Nian didn’t go straight in; he parked his bike and pulled out the key.

Soon, Zhou Yuting also arrived.

Jiang Nian had already called Zhou Yuting on the way, so she knew what she needed to do.

She glared at Jiang Nian angrily, then said helplessly.

“They’re all here; let’s go in together.”

If it were in the past, Zhou Yuting would never have taken him seriously. Now that the situation was reversed, her attitude unconsciously changed.

Even if she didn’t admit it verbally, in her heart, she had already elevated Jiang Nian’s status to a superior position.

Because she was a typical ‘princess’ type; having been the sole ruler in her small circle for too long, she took herself too seriously.

After facing a dimensionality reduction attack from the outside, she would become weak.

“Mm, let’s go.”

Jiang Nian walked ahead, entering the dimly lit KTV.

Two people appeared in the corridor ahead, walking towards the exit.

From afar, he couldn’t see clearly, but as they got closer, he realized it was Old Tian.

Old Tian also saw Jiang Nian, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He then patted the person next to him before greeting Jiang Nian.

“Haha, isn’t the boss teaching classes?”

He remembered another VIP student, an English teacher, mentioning that the young boss was almost at 600 points, a definite candidate for a key university.

“I took a leave, just here to have some fun.”

Jiang Nian smiled, then asked, “Oh, by the way, has my teacher passed the second subject of the driving test?”

“Almost.”

Old Tian was a bit embarrassed.

Jiang Nian always felt that this “almost” made Xi Bao’s skills seem a bit exaggerated.

“Boss, you can definitely do it. You’ll have your driver’s license before the end of next month.”

Old Tian suddenly started setting a flag.

“You can start choosing a car, a big Audi.”

Jiang Nian looked at Coach Tian, “Right now, I can only afford a Yadea. If I really have to drive, I can only borrow the coach’s Audi.”

Hearing this, Tian Yongsheng seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, laughing until tears came out.

“As long as Boss, you want to drive, what car can’t you afford?”

Zhou Yuting stood by, watching them chat, completely bewildered.

It wasn’t until the two middle-aged men left that she came back to her senses. Her mind was filled with thoughts of driver’s licenses, and… Audis and BMWs.

“You… got a driver’s license?”

“Mm.”

Jiang Nian casually responded, then prepared to lift his foot and asked, “Which way?”

“Oh, over there. Follow me.”

Zhou Yuting quickly took two steps, hiding the stunned and shocked expression on her face.

She hadn’t even finished the college entrance exam, and he already had a driver’s license?

Liu Feipeng also had a driver’s license, but that was because he was two years older than his peers, so he got his license during the summer vacation after his second year of high school.

However, he drove his dad’s car, an older model BMW.

So, Jiang Nian had one too?

She didn’t know what car he had. But after observing, the coach’s expression didn’t seem like he was joking.

So, could Jiang Nian really afford a car?

And it wasn’t the kind of car purchase where he was doing poorly in school, so he planned to drop out and get a BYD to drive for Didi.

Zhou Yuting was confused, her head throbbing.

She knew Jiang Nian’s circumstances best; he wasn’t exactly poor. If his family worked hard, they could still come up with the bride price.

It was estimated that after spending all their money, they would be in a state of sudden poverty. One could only say that it was a relatively ordinary and normal family in a small county, incomparable to the nouveau riche Liu Feipeng’s family.

But now… Zhou Yuting suddenly realized that she didn’t seem to understand Jiang Nian at all.

If it was true, she wished it were false. If it was false, and Jiang Nian had deliberately paid someone to pretend, she wished it were true.

In the KTV private room.

Yellow beer sloshed twice in a diamond-embossed square glass, clinking with a sound, and white foam spilled over the rim.

The dim light passing through the glass made it even darker.

The stuffy, sofa smell of the private room made people dizzy. Liu Feipeng sat on the central sofa, leisurely sipping his drink.

His eyes showed composure, and a faint smile hung on his face.

Ever since the last failed gathering, he had focused his mind on his career. Now, his subordinates had doubled in size.

Liu Feipeng watched his trusted subordinates grab the microphone or greedily devour the fruit platter. A surge of ambition rose in his chest, making him want to express himself with grand words.

Damn, this feels great!

He suddenly remembered the girl who used to sing sweetly into the microphone, her face blooming with a smile, and the smile on his face faded.

That was his regret, an untouchable wound in his heart.

Undoubtedly, Zhou Yuting was worthy of being the woman by the Big Boss’s side. Both her beauty and emotional intelligence were very high.

Even if he achieved great things in the future, he imagined he wouldn’t be a heartless man.

It was just that the flowers wished to fall, but the stream had no such intention. Lately, he had almost lost contact with Zhou Yuting, for reasons he couldn’t quite explain.

In his melancholy, he could only focus on his career.

What surprised him, though, was that Zhou Yuting had contacted him yesterday. She had said a lot, inviting him out for a gathering.

Liu Feipeng had a premonition that Zhou Yuting definitely wanted to reconcile with him.

The door was pushed open.

Zhou Yuting walked in, her youthful face without makeup, a distinct jawline, and a slender figure with beautiful legs.

Liu Feipeng narrowed his eyes, his throat bobbing as he looked at the fresh and alluring Zhou Yuting.

He downed a glass of wine, finally suppressing his restless emotions.

A polite smile appeared on his face, and he was about to stand up. But then he saw another person enter through the door; it was Jiang Nian!

However, the next second, Jiang Nian said to Zhou Yuting.

“Sorry, my girlfriend is too strict; I’m a bit late.”

Zhou Yuting found it hard to keep a straight face; this was outside the script.

She finally understood. This bastard Jiang Nian, in order to distance himself, even resorted to fabricating a girlfriend.

He was truly the scum of scumbags, a shameless wretch.

Liu Feipeng paused for a moment, thinking, “Jiang Nian already has a girlfriend?”

But it made sense; it wouldn’t be hard for him to find a girlfriend.

Then the reason Zhou Yuting brought Jiang Nian to the KTV was also obvious: to avoid awkwardness, she called her classmate Jiang Nian to accompany her.

In this light, it was Le Zhi, who had once stood up for Jiang Nian, who had become the clown.

Some were in love, some were getting promoted. As the saying goes, for adults, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.

And he, tonight, would also be the winner.

Thinking this, Liu Feipeng stood up with a glass of beer.

He walked towards Zhou Yuting, a calm smile on his face.

“Yuting, you arrived early, why didn’t you come up? It’s warm in the private room. Did you become estranged from us after getting promoted?”

After he finished speaking, he thought to himself that he was truly eloquent.

He both subtly criticized Jiang Nian and put pressure on Zhou Yuting, while also giving Zhou Yuting an out, indicating that he cared for her.

The two canceled each other out, allowing Zhou Yuting to use this topic to return to his side.

As for Jiang Nian, he would be marginalized after the awkwardness. Later, when they moved to another venue, the poor guy would have to leave.

Zhou Yuting shook her head, forcing a smile.

“I just felt like it had been a long time, and I was too embarrassed to come up.”

After speaking, Zhou Yuting sat directly next to Jiang Nian. She didn’t lean towards Liu Feipeng, and the atmosphere became awkward again.

However, Liu Feipeng, after making his own assumptions, felt that this must be Zhou Yuting playing hard to get.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have brought Jiang Nian, who had a girlfriend, to accompany her; it was just a coy act of feigned reluctance.

It could make him jealous without making him angry.

With Jiang Nian acting as a classmate, everything became legitimate, leaving no room for complaint.

This was very much like Zhou Yuting.

After the two were seated, Liu Feipeng ordered several fruit platters.

Jiang Nian sat down without saying a word, burying his head in eating and drinking.

He had to admit, there wasn’t much good stuff at the KTV, and the taste was mediocre.

However, it was fresh, and he usually didn’t bother buying fruit to eat.

This directly amused Liu Feipeng. In his good mood, he said in what he considered a humorous, joking tone.

“Want me to order you a Shaxian rice bowl?”

“Sure, I heard KTV internal kitchens are very dirty.”

Jiang Nian picked his teeth with a toothpick, his expression unclear in the dim light.

“You can Yin and Yang me however you want; I don’t use my brain anyway. Dealing with idiots, thinking too much will burn out my brain.”

Liu Feipeng was instantly stunned. He hadn’t expected Jiang Nian to be so aggressive. His face immediately fell, and he stared intently at him.

The younger brothers beside him all stood up, looking displeased.

Jiang Nian didn’t even lift his head. If these people in the private room were good buddies from a vocational school, he would immediately run away without a second thought.

Unfortunately, they were not.
