Chapter 413 Shopping Fund

A large part of Jiang Nian showing off was to test his skills, after all, among his few skills, fishing was the most useless.

He was busy with classes in his third year of high school, and he didn’t use it much normally.

Furthermore, he didn’t like eating fish.

Anyway, everyone was a stranger, so there was no harm in fishing. So he just started fishing, thinking of developing a new way to play.

As for whether it would be embarrassing, don’t worry about such trivial things.

Students who cared about their reputation couldn’t show off.

But then again, he truly was an inspirational star, he really could score over six hundred, and he was 100% accurate at this pot game.

So, was that still considered showing off?

Qiangzi said he was face-blind because his family wealth truly allowed him to casually marry a milk tea girl. This was common knowledge, and no one criticized him for being unworthy.

If he didn’t show off, how would the unfamiliar students know his myriad abilities?

If you don’t show off in your third year of high school, you might as well go home.

“Now it’s done, at least it’s not useless…”

The people around him couldn’t hear his muttering, nor did they know he was fishing. It was quiet for a long time, and even the referee teacher was stunned.

Hitting all of them wasn’t the problem; the problem was, how was it so smooth?

“Holy crap, no need to aim?”

“That makes no sense, this wave of his looked like he was just throwing randomly, no technique at all, yet it went in so smoothly…”

“No, buddy, this is just too much showing off.”

But honestly, using fishing to show off was really satisfying.

The only downside was that it didn’t work on acquaintances.

And it varied from person to person; even if all the people around were strangers and successfully attracted, introverted people still wouldn’t step forward.

After all, this thing wasn’t magic.

“How was it?” Old Liu walked over, quite normal this time. “How many did you hit?”

“All of them.”

“That’s pretty good, winning an award is almost a sure thing.” Old Liu couldn’t help but smile. “Li Qingrong’s side is also good, mostly hit.”

“All of them too?”

“Not quite, the competition is less fierce on the girls’ side.” Old Liu looked around. “Hmm? Did you argue with someone?”

Jiang Nian found that after two uses of the skill, Old Liu became immune to Fishing.

This also meant their relationship had become familiar at this moment.

Damn it, Old Liu.

I can’t believe it, are we just… a simple teacher-student relationship built on mutual benefit?

“Not at all, they probably genuinely feel happy for me.” Jiang Nian talking nonsense was second nature to him.

Old Liu suddenly worried, would this kid get ganged up on?

“Ahem, it’s better to be a bit more low-key.”

“Don’t worry, teacher, no one understands low-key better than I do.” Jiang Nian patted his chest, agreeing without thinking.

“Cough, cough, cough!!!” The boy who had just finished throwing passed by and, hearing this, choked on his saliva.

Jiang Nian was startled at first, about to say who was so unlucky.

He quickly recognized it was “Good Guy Bro,” so he swiftly stepped over and patted Good Guy Bro’s back, saying,

“Don’t be afraid, classmate, if you feel unwell, you can tell the champion.”

“Cough… cough, tell… your mom!”

Old Liu: “?”

He suspected this person had some misunderstanding about being low-key, but then he remembered that he had won two more activity championships today.

So, he immediately started smiling like Faker again.

To be honest, before Jiang Nian was promoted to his class.

Old Liu’s main energy was focused on a few top students in the class, especially Li Qingrong, hoping she could get into Tsinghua or Peking University.

But after Jiang Nian arrived and various awards were won, Old Liu suddenly realized that Class Three could fully achieve moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor education!

When the higher-ups came to inspect, who would be the face of the class?

It must be… Thinking of this, Old Liu was already laughing.

At this moment, he seemed to see himself sitting in the office chair of the academic affairs office, saying to a student who came to the office,

“Don’t be afraid, classmate, if you have difficulties, tell the director.”

So, when Li Qingrong came over after her competition, she happened to see an old man and a young man laughing wildly there.

“??”

Towards the end of the competition, they suddenly arranged an overtime match.

Because Jiang Nian hit all of them, it was clearly not Perfection for them. So they gathered those few people and competed again.

However, 【Precision】 is precision.

Even if they competed a hundred more times, as long as Jiang Nian didn’t want to go easy, even with his eyes closed, even with a fire poker, he could still hit it!

This was simply invincible; he wouldn’t make mistakes at all.

“Again… and again, all hits?”

“How can he guess right every time? Why doesn’t he make any mistakes?”

“Then what should we do? If Director Fang’s student doesn’t get the championship, then it won’t be Perfection for their two classes to have everyone win an award, right?”

“Try to discuss it with his homeroom teacher, if the young man is sensible…”

Here, there were whispers, and there, Director Fang’s face was almost frozen in embarrassment. This championship was truly too important for both classes.

The prize money didn’t matter; it was mainly for publicity. What was even harder to bear was that the champions of both the male and female groups seemed to be unable to be secured.

Soon, Old Liu arrived.

“Ahem, I can understand this too. It’s just that the situation is what it is, Li… you all know.”

Hearing this, several teachers all looked awkward. Bullying a little girl, if she gets bullied someday, she won’t be able to cry.

Suddenly, someone asked.

“What about that boy in your class?”

“That’s right, Teacher Liu. It’s enough for your class to have one champion; the boys’ group should be let go. One shouldn’t be so selfish.”

Old Liu saw Director Fang’s gaze also cast upon him, feeling as if ants were crawling all over his body.

Indeed, a gentleman wouldn’t do bad things. But a powerful gentleman would remain silent, and a sycophant would handle the remaining matters.

He understood all the principles, but he also had reasons not to give up this championship.

He could privately compensate Jiang Nian with the 1,500 yuan prize money. However, without the championship, it would dampen Jiang Nian’s enthusiasm.

The student wins an award, and he himself kneels first. Forgetting righteousness for small gains, then he couldn’t possibly retire as a vice-principal.

He thought for a moment and decided to take a gamble.

“That boy… they have a bit of a situation. If we do this, that little girl will also have an opinion.”

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

They wouldn’t care about the thoughts of an ordinary little girl, but this little girl’s surname was Li, and besides, their actions were indeed unreasonable.

If they were both unreasonable and didn’t stand with “Li,” then it was similar.

Suddenly, Director Fang spoke.

“Then congratulations, Teacher Liu. Since the competition is fair, just, and open, and there are no objections to the results, let’s finalize the rankings.”

Old Liu felt disgusted, but he could only smile.

Who told him that person was a director (almost retired)? But luckily, he wasn’t the academic affairs director, and he wouldn’t be around for many more years.

Whatever, he stood with “Li.”

Not far away.

“Really got the championship?” Jiang Nian scratched his face, then turned to look at Li Qingrong. “Then aren’t we two champions?”

“Mm.”

“Has Old Liu been buffed? Is this version so strong?”

“What?” Li Qingrong didn’t understand.

“Nothing, just complaining about Old Liu.” Jiang Nian looked in the direction of the organizing committee. “Very good, Old Liu didn’t betray me.”

Actually, what he didn’t know was that Old Liu was also borrowing the tiger’s prestige. It could only be said that Class Three was so abstract, and Old Liu’s contributions were indispensable.

Often, the more serious a person is, the more abstract they might be.

In the activity center classroom, there was a small stage. A teacher stood on it, reading out the names, and people went up one by one to receive their awards.

“Men’s group, women’s group champion.”

“Science, Olympiad Class Three, Jiang Nian. Science, Olympiad Class Three, Li Qingrong.”

When a class name appeared twice in the championship awards, the entire audience of one to two hundred people instantly erupted.

“Olympiad class?”

“How are science top students so fierce, with one class producing two champions?”

“If it weren’t for some classes bringing over twenty people, I’d really think this result was rigged, but I can only say it’s gratifying.”

“Among the top students, there are also those who love sports. That person in my friend’s class…”

As Jiang Nian and Li Qingrong went on stage together to receive their awards, they also heard the debates coming from below, and their eyelids couldn’t help but twitch.

When a person is weak, anger is like a joke. When a person is strong, even if he curses everyone he sees, he is still being abstract.

If you ask, it’s humor, the bottom of a prison.

The champion’s prize was unremarkable, a thin envelope. Inside were fifteen banknotes, quite plain and unadorned.

Jiang Nian and Li Qingrong stood together to receive the award, with no need to give any acceptance speech.

Even silence was a form of invisible showing off.

“Holy crap, that girl is so pretty, I heard she’s a top student from the science Olympiad class?”

Below, the boys on the same floor as Class Three laughed.

“You’re ignorant, brother. If you don’t go to the fourth floor of the science building, you’ll not only know nothing about top students, but your looks will also be ‘What do you mean?'”

“Olympiad top students refer to those with five or six hundred points, those are Tsinghua/Peking University candidates with almost seven hundred points.”

“No, why would someone with almost seven hundred points stay in the Olympiad class?”

The boy shrugged, “Who knows.”

As he spoke, both of them simultaneously looked up at Jiang Nian and Li Qingrong on the stage.

Suddenly, the boy was seen taking the envelope and immediately looking down to count the money. Li Qingrong, however, after receiving her envelope, turned to look at him.

The two boys who had just finished discussing were instantly speechless at the sight.

Damn it, now they knew!

Your mom, does this guy only like money?

With the money in hand, Jiang Nian grinned happily.

He and Li Qingrong didn’t linger long; after receiving the award and taking photos, they greeted Old Liu and prepared to return to the classroom. Leaving Building D, it was already the fourth self-study session of the evening.

There were still some first and second-year high school students in the school, who hadn’t left after evening self-study, scattered along the road.

The dark curtain of night hung high, and a cold wind swept through.

“Here.”

“Huh?” Jiang Nian turned around, saw an envelope handed to him, and was stunned. “Why are you giving it to me?”

Li Qingrong pursed her lips, “Mm.”

Jiang Nian was a bit dumbfounded, “But I have one too.”

She said, “Save it.”

Sister, you should go to a bank to save money, not Jiang Nian.

“Individuals can’t open banks, right?” Jiang Nian muttered, “Then if you save it with me, aren’t you afraid I’ll run away with the money?”

Li Qingrong shook her head and pulled out her phone.

“I still have…” “Wait a minute, if the amount is too large, you’ll really get into trouble.” Jiang Nian broke out in a cold sweat and casually took the envelope.

“Alright then, this money will be saved with me. Let’s temporarily call it ‘Backup Hidden Energy.’ I’ll give it to you when you need it.”

This name was clearly too beastly, emphasizing loyalty and righteousness.

Li Qingrong frowned and looked up at him.

“It’s for the shopping fund.”
