Chapter 182: It seems something is about to come out, this damn thing

Hu Nianzhong walked through the aisle on the other side of the cafeteria with his tray, and a casual glance showed him Jiang Nian and his friends.

He often silently observed people in his class, including Jiang Nian and his friends.

Seeing Chen Yunyun and Wang Yuhe eating with Jiang Nian, he wasn’t surprised. But a hint of envy still involuntarily showed in his eyes; their relationship was really good.

Putting down his tray, Hu Nianzhong shifted his gaze to Yu Tongjie’s face.

“Aren’t you eating?”

“No, I don’t have much appetite right now.” Yu Tongjie was eager to finalize the deal and wasn’t in the mood to eat. “Just tell me, what do you want?”

Hu Nianzhong wasn’t in a hurry to answer. He knew that exceeding a price of two thousand would be illegal.

Being too outrageous would definitely cause problems, and he might even burn himself. But encountering such an arrogant fool, it would be a shame not to take advantage of him.

Finally, he looked up and said,

“I want a pair of shoes.”

“Your request is a bit presumptuous. Who do you take me for?”

Lin Dong was eating on the first floor of the cafeteria, where the crowd was denser than on the second floor. He had just finished listening to Huang Cailang’s request and almost spat out his rice.

“Investigate Brother Qi Ming’s ex-girlfriend? Am I some lowly Detective Conan kid?”

Huang Cailang was a bit anxious, scratching his head and saying,

“Brother, please help!”

“No, how can I help with this?” Lin Dong was bewildered. “I can’t just find his girlfriend and directly ask her if she has a new boyfriend, can I?”

“Can’t you?” Huang Cailang asked.

“red stone!” Lin Dong was a bit speechless. “If you give me half a month, as long as I add her QQ, I can find out the color of her underwear.”

Huang Cailang couldn’t hold back his laughter. What kind of online chat pillar was this?

“Brother, there are only two days.”

“Two days? You’d better find someone else.” Lin Dong lowered his head to eat.

He was afraid that Huang Cailang would go back on his word and forcibly take back the meat from his bowl.

He had this concern because Huang Cailang was indeed capable of such a thing. None of the people in the previous dorm were cowards; they were all audacious perverts.

“No, Brother Yang is really pitiful!” Huang Cailang thought of the day after tomorrow, when Yang Qiming would not only be desperate, but his shrimp dumplings would also be eaten by him.

An inexplicable sense of guilt enveloped him, making it hard to breathe.

“Brother Dong, let’s try again, use a honey trap.”

Hearing this, Lin Dong looked up, the meat still in his mouth.

“Hmm? You go find Jiang Nian.”

“I’m not familiar with him, and besides, if Brother Yang knew about this…” Huang Cailang was extremely depressed, even leaving a few bites of rice on his tray to show his sadness.

Lin Dong buried his head in his rice, both cheeks stuffed.

“I%￥#@.”

“Huh?”

Chen Yunyun and the others returned to their dorm after getting hot water, saying they needed to put away their clothes.

They planned to rest in the dorm for a while, and since Jiang Nian couldn’t go up, he had to return to the classroom first. To be honest, he was a bit curious about what the girls’ dorm looked like.

Currently, half of the Northern District Secret Realm had been explored by Jiang Nian. He could eat at the dorm cafeteria whenever he wanted. Easily arranging meals with boarding students, he was already half a boarding student.

When will the leaders arrange a resolution for Jiang Nian to move into the girls’ dorm?

Another day, he’d go to Qiezi Novel Network and write a book, “I Have a Suite in the Girls’ Dorm.” The word’suite’ (house) must be listed separately to give a sense of clever phrasing.

Half an hour before evening self-study, Jiang Nian entered the classroom.

He looked around and found that only Huang Fang and the class monitor were in their seats. Li Hua and Ma Guojun were nowhere to be seen, probably still out playing basketball.

After sitting down, he turned to look at the class monitor behind him.

In the brightly lit classroom, Li Qingrong was wearing a black, purple, and grey spliced assault jacket today.

Autumn was neither cold nor hot, with occasional strong winds, so a jacket and a base layer were suitable.

“Class Monitor, your jacket is really nice.” Jiang Nian genuinely praised. “It should be considered unisex, I think I could wear it too.”

Li Qingrong heard this, looked up at him.

“You want to wear it?”

“How should I put it, hey, don’t take it off, I’m just kidding.” Jiang Nian was startled by her unzipping motion and explained, “I just thought it looked good.”

“Mhm.” Li Qingrong was clearly very happy.

Jiang Nian didn’t know how he could tell the class monitor was happy; her face didn’t show much change in expression, but he just felt she was very happy.

He picked up the glass teacup on the table and took a sip of water, his gaze falling on Ma Guojun’s desk. There was a black metal mesh pen holder with only two pens in it.

Seeing the vast empty space, he impulsively pulled out one of Li Hua’s pens.

With a whoosh, the gel pen flipped in the air and plunked into the pen holder.

Seeing this, Jiang Nian smiled.

He bent down and began to collect all the pens in Li Hua’s drawer. In the end, he didn’t even spare the pencils, finding a total of six pens, which he tossed into the pen holder one by one.

After a while, they were all thrown in.

Jiang Nian still wanted to laugh, when suddenly a pen was handed over from behind him.

He froze, then turned around to see Li Qingrong looking at him. She seemed puzzled as to why he wasn’t taking it, and pushed the pen forward again; it was her own pen.

“No need, I’m not throwing anymore now,” Jiang Nian explained.

“Mhm.” Li Qingrong quickly took the pen back.

Not long after, Zhang Ningzhi returned.

“Excuse me.”

“Oh, oh.” Jiang Nian didn’t act like a jerk and moved forward quite normally.

“Huh?” Zhang Ningzhi instinctively felt something was off but couldn’t quite place it. After returning to her seat, she asked curiously, “Did you eat lunch?”

“Yes, I did.” Jiang Nian leisurely replied, then casually asked, “By the way, weren’t you and Yao Beibei going to feed the chickens?”

“No, Beibei said Lin Dong didn’t ask her to bring food, and she didn’t want to feed one less chicken.” Zhang Ningzhi blushed. “We ate at the shop in front, the chicken noodle soup was so delicious.”

Jiang Nian nodded, “Very good, Innate Agricultural Saint Body.”

Zhang Ningzhi felt a bit embarrassed by what he said. Her close friend was an abstract social butterfly, and her deskmate was a severe case, giving her the feeling of being surrounded by humorists.

She shook her head, pulling the conversation back from its tangent, and probed indirectly,

“Did you eat with Lin Dong?”

Jiang Nian thought for a moment, “More or less.”

“Ah?”

“Not Lin Dong, but Lin Dong’s team members.” He didn’t hide anything. “I ate with Chen Yunyun and the others, got a free meal, it was quite enjoyable.”

Zhang Ningzhi turned away, not in the mood to talk to him. She thought, ‘Enjoyable my foot, I’m not happy.’

A few minutes later, just before evening reading, Li Hua also returned.

His first reaction was to look for his book, reaching his hand towards the desk, but suddenly a sharp screech erupted.

“Holy crap! Where are my pens?”

At the same time, Ma Guojun also shouted,

“Whose damn pens are these?”

Jiang Nian lowered his head to read. Every day at school was so damn hard. Living in the mud and blooming like a lotus, he had to be well-behaved every day.

Li Hua took all seven pens back, and his first suspicion was Jiang Nian.

“Was it you?”

Jiang Nian shook his head, looking bewildered.

“I don’t know.”

Sun Zhicheng looked up at the fluorescent light in the classroom.

During evening reading, the class was packed with standing students.

He narrowed his eyes, took a piece of chewing gum from his pocket, and put it in his mouth. This was one of the ten ways to boost charm he’d seen in a short video.

Chewing gum, blah blah blah, helps make the face more defined and appear cooler. The video even cited Michael Jordan as an example, so he had to believe it now.

The second he started chewing, Sun Zhicheng’s mind suddenly clicked, like a flash of lightning.

It seems something is about to come out!

Charm, damn charm!

The sweetness of the chewing gum exploded between his lips and teeth. The act of chewing passively leveled his gaze. His eyelids drooped slightly, giving him a look of disdain for the world.

It’s out! Confidence is out!

Sun Zhicheng turned to look at a corner of the classroom, and his gaze met Yu Tongjie’s.

Idiot!

He didn’t know why he disliked Yu Tongjie, perhaps because the other person’s gaze made him uncomfortable. What kind of strange look are you giving your daddy!

As he chewed, Sun Zhicheng suddenly felt a bit thirsty.

Evening reading ended, he was still chewing.

The first evening self-study class ended, he was still chewing.

Sun Zhicheng’s astonishing perseverance had no audience; to be honest, his jaw was a little sore.

He was waiting for Chen Yunyun to turn around, for no other reason than hoping for recognition.

Zhou Yuting was also there, why didn’t she look at him? Wang Yuhe was a bit difficult; she was too competitive, and getting her attention wasn’t a good thing.

Alright, just let anyone come over and look at me.

Brother Dong, Brother Dong would be fine too, I’m right next to you. You damn it! It’s been a whole class, turn around and look at me, you bastard!

However, no one paid attention.

He continued to chew gum alone, like a swordsman practicing tirelessly from winter to spring.

The class bell rang, and he also understood that he was too narrow-minded. Chewing gum wasn’t to gain anyone’s attention; would he not work hard without Chen Yunyun?

No, he would still move forward. This was the story of a Location County youth becoming a handsome Southern guy! Like a song not made for anyone else, growing in solitude.

The surroundings quieted down, but he continued to chew persistently.

So annoying!

Zhou Yuting clutched her hair, her knuckles white as she held her gel pen.

What kind of monsters are in the back row of this classroom? Why are there so many oddballs?

Chewing loudly for a whole class, can’t they just die?

That creepy guy in the dark corner, she really wanted to sew his mouth shut.

Are the people around him deaf? Pigs eating in a trough aren’t that loud.

So annoying, so annoying!!!

She really wanted to stand up and curse, but she was just an outsider. She had only been in this class for a few days and didn’t have the courage to cause trouble with the locals, so she could only swallow her anger.

Lin Dong was playing on his phone, or rather, making money, under the cover of the bookshelf.

He had two WeChat accounts and had added many girls when he used to chat online. Sending out some ads didn’t bother him at all and didn’t affect his image.

Today he made a whopping twenty-five yuan, which was just the first step in his wool-gathering. He was waiting until after midnight tonight to invest money after upgrading.

If he lost, it would only be a few hundred yuan.

Of course, this kind of thing had a bad influence, and he had only told Jiang Nian. To put it mildly, it was wool-gathering; to put it more seriously, it was playing with fire, so it had to be kept absolutely secret.

Thinking of the wool-gathering tonight, he couldn’t help but tap his leg in sync with Sun Zhicheng’s chewing.

Zhou Yuting collapsed, desperately covering her ears. Were they slaughtering pigs over there? If they couldn’t hold it down, they could call more people. Why were they even responding to each other?

Someone, anyone! Stop them!

Yang Qiming was immersed in fond memories of his ex-girlfriend when he was suddenly interrupted by the leg-tapping and chewing sounds. He immediately frowned and unhappily spoke out,

“Who is it! Whose pig got lost, chewing away over there!”

In an instant, the classroom fell silent.

Sun Zhicheng lowered his head, his face full of embarrassment. He could even feel the piercing gazes from all around. He and Yang Qiming weren’t that close, but they had spoken before.

From Lin Dong, he also learned that Yang Qiming had broken up with his girlfriend recently.

Amidst his embarrassment, his heart was filled with anger.

He really wanted to loudly retort to Yang Qiming, saying things like, “Others’ tongues are already in there, why can’t you move on?” words that would be truly devastating.

But out of consideration for their classmate relationship, Sun Zhicheng suppressed the demon in his heart.

Yang Qiming, however, didn’t stop. He angrily said,

“Sun Zhicheng, stop chewing your damn gum! Anyone would think you have epilepsy!”

Hearing this, Sun Zhicheng’s anger, which he had just suppressed, flared up again.

He was enraged. The Buddha in his heart lowered his gaze, and the demon gained the upper hand, killing his last shred of reason.

“Is my chewing louder, or is the sound of your ex-girlfriend kissing someone else louder?”
