Chapter Index

    The Class Monitor is indeed very cute.

    She just can’t take a joke.

    Once she feels speechless, or gets angry, she’ll turn her head away, or simply lower her head to look at the exam paper.

    Jiang Nian suddenly had an idea, if…

    “Hm?” Li Qingrong looked puzzled.

    She didn’t understand why Jiang Nian, in front of her, was sometimes sad and sometimes smirking. He looked like he had gone crazy from studying.

    Thinking of this, her gaze gradually became serious.

    There were only a few people near their seats during the break, and Li Qingrong was momentarily frozen there. Her mind was pondering how to deal with it.

    Crazy people, it seems, all need to be locked up.

    She certainly wouldn’t lock him up, but she also couldn’t let him out to endanger others’ safety, so she could only find a safe place.

    To accompany him?

    Li Qingrong was thinking purely based on experience, and she was also quite naive. A normal person wouldn’t think about locking up a classmate.

    “What are you thinking about?”

    Jiang Nian said, “It’s a secret.”

    Everything that could be said, and couldn’t be said, had been said.

    The Class Monitor tilted her head, not interested in the secret he spoke of. She just observed again, confirming his mental state.

    It seems… he’s normal again.

    Jiang Nian glanced at the Class Monitor, then fell into thought.

    “Why are you making such a regretful expression? Could it be that you really want to know this secret?”

    Li Qingrong shook her head, her gaze falling on Jiang Nian’s chest.

    “Is that a letter you’re holding?”

    Hearing this, Jiang Nian’s pupils immediately dilated.

    After he had just taken out the suicide note prop, he couldn’t find a place to put it for a moment, so he simply stuffed it into his embrace.

    Oh no, the Class Monitor can see it!

    “Classmate Li Qingrong Who Can See It,” no… does she really have supernatural powers?

    It’s only been a few days, is the System that useless?

    “It’s… a report letter. I’ve been annoyed with Li Hua for a long time,” Jiang Nian said, “So, I plan to report him.”

    “What’s the reason for the report?” A voice, with a strained throat, rang out.

    “Pornography.”

    “You bastard!” Li Hua grabbed Jiang Nian’s neck, “I knew my reputation has been getting worse lately!”

    “Even more outrageous, some people are spreading rumors that I like the auntie from the convenience store. You’re behind all of this, aren’t you!”

    “Brother…!” Jiang Nian coughed, “I’m having trouble breathing, brother.”

    “It’s good that you’re having trouble breathing! I’ll just…” Li Hua was about to eliminate him, but he turned his head and saw the Class Monitor’s calm gaze.

    Almost in an instant, he began to hesitate. If he got rid of Jiang Nian, would he also be eliminated?

    After a fierce internal struggle, Li Hua still let go of Jiang Nian, and thought about giving him a two-hundred-yuan red packet.

    No, why is the Class Monitor always on his side!

    Jiang Nian could only say he was lucky that Li Hua attracted all the attention. During their scuffle, he had already put away the suicide note.

    This thing couldn’t be seen by others; he had to hide and read it himself.

    During the break of the third self-study class.

    Using going to the bathroom as an excuse, the Class 3 football team gathered briefly in the corridor to discuss tomorrow’s weekend training schedule.

    Since it was the last training session before the official match, even though they had just had an inspiring meal in the afternoon, their attitudes were still quite relaxed.

    Leaning together, laughing and joking, they completely forgot the scene of swearing by the Luoshui River in the evening.

    Jiang Nian didn’t say much about this.

    Relaxation is human nature, and it’s only two days. Occasional encouragement was enough to keep morale high. At the very end, he encouraged them again.

    “This honor, I will not enjoy alone.”

    “Ah?”

    After the team dispersed, Jiang Nian prepared to sneak into the end of the corridor. He found a secluded spot, squatted down, and read the letter.

    But after walking a few steps, he was suddenly pulled back by someone.

    “Hmph hmph, are you skipping class?”

    The voice was too familiar, so much so that Jiang Nian was immediately speechless. He turned to look at Wang Yuhe and Chen Yunyun.

    “What are you two doing?”

    “Going to the restroom.” Chen Yunyun smiled.

    “Then why aren’t you going?” Jiang Nian said half a sentence, then suddenly realized, “You want to go to the administrative building!”

    “Hey, don’t shout!” Chen Yunyun was a little anxious.

    Wang Yuhe was even more quick, forcefully covering his mouth. Immediately, she felt a dampness in her palm, as he had spit on it.

    “Ah! How disgusting you are!”

    Since both of them were also secretly skipping class, their voices were kept very low. This gave Jiang Nian confidence, and he let out a cold laugh.

    “You don’t want to be…”

    “You…”

    Chen Yunyun fled in a hurry, and in the dim light, Jiang Nian pinched her. She ran too fast and he didn’t know where he pinched her, it should have been her waist.

    Don’t tell me, it was quite soft.

    After the two girls left, Jiang Nian vanished into the darkness. He crept to a corner and, by the faint light of his phone, began to read the suicide note.

    He opened it, and there was only one sheet of paper inside.

    Jiang Nian looked at that flimsy piece of paper, yet it carried a person’s entire life, and he couldn’t help but feel a little emo.

    Upon closer inspection, oh… my apologies.

    It required a paid membership.

    It turned out it wasn’t one page, but only one page of content was displayed. At the very end of the handwriting on the first page of the suicide note, it began to twist.

    Like a spring couplet on a door on a humid southern day, it became indescribable.

    The first line of the suicide note.

    “I see no hope.”

    Without any exaggerated embellishment, Jiang Nian was struck speechless by the plain, straightforward words, and fell silent for a moment.

    “After I’m gone, the work can also be handed over. There’s a potted green plant in my room, please help me give it to.”

    No, darling, are you still exploiting colleagues even after you’re gone?

    The suicide note turned into a will. Perhaps she wasn’t good at dealing with people. It was incredibly detailed, making arrangements for everything.

    From various minute details, it could be seen that she had always lived alone. The only living thing she cared for was a potted green plant.

    Her daily life, apart from work, was just going home and lying down.

    Her parents were not mentioned at all throughout the text, only Li Lanying was mentioned once. No feelings were expressed, only a wind chimes was left behind.

    “Wind chimes…” Jiang Nian’s expression was complex.

    The wind cannot speak, but it can strike the wind chimes to make a soft sound. It is generally used to express silence, or unspoken love.

    After the will ended, it started talking about other things.

    “October 5th, I went back to Zhennan. He got engaged.”

    At this point, it abruptly stopped.

    Jiang Nian looked up, put away his phone. At the same time, he silently put the letter back into the envelope, and then re-stuffed the envelope into his embrace.

    There was a lot of information, and he couldn’t process it all at once.

    He didn’t know what kind of mood he was in, as he hurried back to the classroom. Back at his seat, he couldn’t concentrate at all.

    Zeng You, in the front row, turned around and asked Li Hua in the back row.

    “Did you do your physics homework?”

    “Call me Dad.”

    “Dad, Dad, Dad, that’s three times.” Zeng You said nonchalantly, “Bring the chemistry and math homework too.”

    “Holy crap, you really are this! (thumbs up)!” Li Hua was a good sport and pulled out three exercise books.

    At the same time, he turned to look at Jiang Nian.

    “Nian, aren’t you doing your physics homework? Want me to copy it for you, as long as you call me a…”

    “Filial son.” Jiang Nian took out his notebook from the drawer, and casually took out Zhang Ningzhi’s physics homework from her desk compartment.

    He cast aside his complicated thoughts and began to write, black ink staining the paper.
