Chapter 181 (Thanks to Alliance Master Jing Xu for the generous reward) Don’t get cocky, my parents are working hard too

After school in the afternoon, Jiang Nian slowly stood up.

Zhang Ningzhi glanced at him, asking curiously.

“Why aren’t you rushing for food?”

“Oh, I’m going to the dorm cafeteria, someone’s treating me to a meal.” Jiang Nian was always honest. “There are too many people on the road, it’s crowded, and I might run out of my underwear.”

Run out of his underwear?

Zhang Ningzhi detected a tiny bit of perversion.

But as soon as she remembered it was Jiang Nian, it suddenly seemed reasonable.

“Is the food at that cafeteria really good?”

“It’s alright, barely palatable.” Jiang Nian spoke truthfully. “I’m a bit tired of the cafeteria food near the academic building, so I’m occasionally changing it up.”

“You fickle playboy.” Yao Beibei interjected.

After the Joint Exam, Yao Beibei became a bit more active.

Since he had many concubines in his harem, Jiang Nian didn’t bother asking her why she had been so sullen lately.

Perhaps her favorite celebrity had slept with a fan again?

Or simply hormonal imbalance.

In short, don’t randomly guess a seventeen-year-old girl’s thoughts.

One question leads to a more outlandish answer than the last: either hungry or sleepy, or wanting aegyo-sal and fair skin.

Or… crying about her period, why!! (Clutching head and crying) My period came a little late (early)!

“You’re minding too much about a meal, here’s a punch for you.” Jiang Nian had already mastered the profound mystery of the Sun-character Punch, and one punch was super perverted.

“Heh, the cafeteria food isn’t as good as what I make.” Yao Beibei retorted stubbornly.

Zhang Ningzhi’s eyes lit up as she looked at her.

“Beibei, you can cook?”

Yao Beibei tucked the loose strands of hair behind her ear and said casually.

“Yes, it’s very simple. I learned it after watching a tutorial.”

Jiang Nian sneered, unable to help but say.

“You’ve watched the tutorial, but have you seen a doctor?”

“You! You’re the one with a problem!” Yao Beibei was furious, hugging Zhang Ningzhi, “Waaah, Zhizhi baby, he’s bullying me, quickly manage him!”

Damn it, you green tea bitch!

“Don’t bully Beibei.” Zhizhi, the sugar mommy, finally spoke.

“OK OK, give the idiot some love.” Jiang Nian retreated, taking seven or eight steps back. “Time to eat, family, you all continue, I’m leaving first.”

Corridor outside the classroom.

Lin Dong recently discovered a money-making opportunity online; to be precise, someone mentioned it when he was chatting online.

Posting ads on Moments, three or four yuan per post. You could also upgrade by doing tasks, and after reaching a certain rank, you could invest money into it and see your earnings daily.

He knew something was off about this, but he still wanted to try.

He planned to go back to the dorm and lie down, then go to the dorm cafeteria for dinner just before evening self-study.

The advantage was that he could not only take a nap in the dorm but also get a bit more food from the auntie when serving. All in all, he could save money for a late-night snack.

His family’s financial situation was decent, and he had about two thousand yuan in pocket money each month. Even if he spent lavishly, he could still save a few hundred yuan every month bit by bit.

He hadn’t thought about saving before, but now he wanted to accumulate some startup capital.

Lin Dong always fantasized about being a handsome and wealthy second-generation rich kid, but unfortunately, although his old father was capable, he still had a long way to go to become a rich man.

He was quite filial and wouldn’t complain about his parents.

Whenever second-generation rich kids were mentioned, he would always say firmly.

“Don’t get cocky, your parents are great, but my parents aren’t bad either, they’re already working hard.”

As he was walking, someone suddenly patted his shoulder.

He turned around and saw a simple, honest face.

“Cailang?”

“Brother Dong, are you going back to the dorm?”

“Yeah, and you?” Lin Dong hesitated slightly, sizing him up. “Something wrong?”

“Just a small matter, I wanted to ask you something.” Huang Cailang was quite perceptive. “Brother Dong, let me treat you to a meal, we can talk as we walk.”

Lin Dong didn’t refuse; it saved him six yuan anyway.

Yu Tongjie walked among the crowd, looking at his quiet and simple classmate, Hu Nianzhong, beside him.

“Aren’t you going to eat outside? I’m paying anyway.”

Hu Nianzhong shook his head, a contrasting hint of shyness appearing on his dark, resolute face.

“Let’s just stick to the cafeteria, I can’t take advantage of you.”

Yu Tongjie’s face was expressionless, but he felt a sense of disdain. He looked down on cafeteria food, but he wouldn’t say it aloud to avoid trouble.

“Alright, let’s go.”

School had just ended in the afternoon, and the sunset glow was vibrant.

The road was bustling, filled with boarding students returning to their dorms.

Yu Tongjie then remembered that Hu Nianzhong next to him was also a boarding student, and he couldn’t help but size him up with a sidelong glance.

A white school jacket, dark blue school pants, canvas shoes with yellowed soles. A buzz cut, dark skin, thick lips tightly closed, rarely speaking.

Just looking at him gave one a sense of dullness, comparable to that tall, wooden guy in class who only did problems.

Thinking of this, Yu Tongjie couldn’t help but shake his head.

Someone like that in Li Qingrong’s group was a pure waste of resources. It would be better to give the opportunity to himself, to improve grades and foster feelings at the same time.

Hu Nianzhong remained silent, glancing back at Yu Tongjie.

This person’s clothes and shoes were all expensive, only his pig brain was the cheapest.

Simply put, a rich big fool.

Although his family was poor, he wasn’t stupid; he just didn’t like to talk and preferred to observe.

For example, the class monitor’s clothes and shoes looked simple, without Nike or Li-Ning logos. But if you looked closely, you’d find that every item of clothing and every pair of shoes was of excellent quality and had a very nice cut.

Moreover, the class monitor looked at everyone with equal eyes; although her personality was cold, she didn’t give off a sense of distance.

When Yu Tongjie approached him, indicating that he wanted him to voluntarily switch groups, he realized the other party’s intentions were impure and instinctively wanted to refuse.

But… the other party immediately transferred two hundred yuan, completely sealing his mouth.

On the second floor of the dorm cafeteria, the golden glow of dusk shimmered outside the window.

A boy eating with two lively girls, this scene attracted many gazes. What was more irritating was that the boy was actually looking at his phone.

Seriously, buddy, is Xi Shi living in your phone?

Two fair-skinned girls sat opposite him, one with a bright and cheerful face, the other cute and obedient. And he could still play with his phone; people only wished they could take his place!

“What are you looking at so seriously?” Chen Yunyun asked curiously.

“Oh, I’m chatting with your group leader.” Jiang Nian turned his phone over, emphasizing sincerity. “He just said something very interesting.”

Chen Yunyun was a bit speechless; she was most satisfied with her hair’s fluffy state after washing it. It could be said to be her Peak of beauty confidence, but unfortunately, the other party was engrossed in chatting.

However, she had long been accustomed to Jiang Nian’s nature and couldn’t be bothered to sulk.

“What is it?”

“He said it’s a part-time job making money with a phone, and I heard you have to invest money into it.” Jiang Nian put down his phone and started eating. “He seems to have made up his mind and plans to do it.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Yuhe couldn’t help but look up.

“Can you really make money from this?”

Before Jiang Nian could speak, Chen Yunyun turned and warned her seriously.

“Don’t believe it, it’s all a scam.

“I heard from my cousin in college that many people in their department were scammed. They said it was about ‘brushing orders’ to earn commissions, starting with a few yuan, then hundreds, then thousands.”

“Then why not just brush small orders?” Wang Yuhe was a bit confused.

“There are no small orders, they’re all big orders.” Chen Yunyun frowned. “The more expensive the order, the higher the commission. One thousand yuan for a hundred and fifty yuan commission, someone is definitely tempted.”

Wang Yuhe pursed her lips, shamefully admitting that she had been a little tempted just now.

This kind of order-brushing scam was too terrifying; just hearing Chen Yunyun describe it made her tempted. If she really encountered such a thing, she would most likely not be able to control herself.

Jiang Nian put down his chopsticks and smiled.

“It’s not order-brushing; that kind of scam is outdated. Lin Dong said it’s about Moments ads; you just copy the content and post one, and it’s like 3-10 yuan.”

Wang Yuhe was startled, then asked curiously.

“Can you really get money?”

“Yes, save a screenshot, and it’s settled on the same day.” Jiang Nian said. “But it seems to require a ‘life account’ and you can’t block anyone, nor can you delete it immediately.”

Hearing this, Chen Yunyun said with a stern face.

“That’s using students’ credibility to trick more people into joining, and to scam the students’ families and friends around them.”

Then, she looked at Jiang Nian and asked.

“You’re not thinking of getting involved, are you?”

“No, I’m just watching how your group leader ‘fleeces the sheep’.” He waved his hand. “Your group leader isn’t stupid, but he seems to really be able to make money.”

“How does he make money?” Chen Yunyun asked in surprise.

“Hard to say, that’s your group leader’s business secret.” Jiang Nian continued to reply to Lin Dong’s messages, then looked up again. “But this is a scam, don’t touch any of it.”

Chen Yunyun shook her head, “I’m not stupid.”

Wang Yuhe also nodded, saying seriously.

“Me too.”

As he was speaking, Jiang Nian suddenly caught sight of Yu Tongjie.

He couldn’t help but feel a little confused; what was this person doing in the dorm cafeteria, and the person next to him looked a bit familiar.

Did Squirtle make new friends?

“What are you spacing out about again?” Chen Yunyun asked.

“Nothing, just saw someone from our class.” Jiang Nian didn’t say anything else, staring at the meat on Chen Yunyun’s plate and asking, “Do you have a weight loss plan recently?”

“Am I fat?” Chen Yunyun immediately tensed up, subconsciously looking down at her chest.

Her Physique was a bit special; she always started gaining weight from her chest. Girls with large chests found it hard to match clothes, and wearing small dresses was like wearing curtains.

So she always deliberately maintained a certain weight, even losing weight, just to look good in clothes.

Wang Yuhe glanced at her; as a bathroom best friend (best friend), she had the most authority to speak.

“Not fat.”

“Indeed not fat, actually, I just wanted a piece of meat.” Seeing that a misunderstanding was about to arise, Jiang Nian immediately jumped out of the minefield, saying awkwardly.

“My family was poor, when I was little, I only ate stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots.”

Chen Yunyun: “…”

Wang Yuhe: “…”

“You could have just said you wanted to eat, why beat around the bush?” Chen Yunyun was a bit displeased, still bothered by the word ‘fat’, but she still picked up a piece of meat for him.

“Here you go.”

Wang Yuhe followed suit, saying seriously.

“Here you go.”

This scene was perfectly caught by Yu Tongjie, who was returning with his tray, and a look of disdain appeared on his face.

Hanging out with girls all day, like some kind of…

He sat down, waiting for Hu Nianzhong, who was a step slower.

He then felt somewhat relieved, thinking that this was good; let Jiang Nian continue to degenerate in the land of tenderness, and his grades would soon plummet.

Last month’s bad start, this month would be his home ground.

Making up for yesterday.
