Chapter 204: Chapter 174 Actually, I Am a Relatively New Type of Simp

After school, the three of them mingled with the crowd of residential students heading back to their dorms, passing through the North District Dormitory area.

Just outside the North Gate, what met their eyes were old rental houses, with chaotic electrical wires cutting across the sky above.

Further beyond was the industrial area, where the sky appeared a yellowish hue.

Li Hua led the two into a dark alley, enthusiastically introducing it along the way.

"Someone recommended this place to me. It’s a small restaurant, not expensive but delicious."

Jiang Nian seemed quite interested; he’d hardly ever eaten at a small restaurant. When he didn’t have money, he couldn’t afford it, so he always ate at the canteen. Even when he had money, he still ate at the canteen in the end.

"How far?"

"Just ahead, a hundred or two hundred meters."

"Chi Shi, you said that two minutes ago." Ma Guojun wiped the sweat from his forehead. "If you’re lying again, I’ll Aruba you, you bastard, deliberately finding somewhere so far."

When Li Hua offered to treat them to a meal, it didn’t matter what it was or where it was at.

Anyway, the first step was to go out. Even if they had to squat by the roadside, they had to pull some grass and stuff it in their mouths.

What? No money?

Give me your phone.

Where did you get fifteen grand? Don’t ask too many questions about street affairs.

Although Jiang Nian and Ma Guojun had previously clamored for Red Bull and Mafengwo, when it came time to order, they just ordered two dishes and drank some cheap tea.

"You guys really aren’t drinking?" Li Hua blew on the pale yellow tea, somewhat moved. "No need to save money for dad, I can’t seem to spend it all lately."

Jiang Nian was the first to speak, "Forget it, Hua, save it for your dowry shards."

Ma Guojun laughed, nodding in agreement.

"Exactly, exactly."

"Damn." Li Hua couldn’t hold it when he heard "dowry shards," "Damn it, you’re such a rookie, touching on the sore spot."

The three of them usually mooched meals off each other, with the drinks mostly coming from Jiang Nian. He often bought New Concept Oral Solution Sprite, so they didn’t feel guilty mooching off him.

"Let me treat you guys to a drink, what do you want?" Ma Guojun got up, ready to get some drinks, "How about something iced, soy milk or something else?"

"Wasn’t I treating?" Li Hua said.

Watching the two bicker, Jiang Nian suddenly proposed.

"How about... having a drink?"

For a moment, the small square table fell silent, Li Hua and Ma Guojun looked at each other.

After a minute.

"Shall we?"

"Let’s do it."

...

Evening study was about to start, and the classroom was brightly lit with endless chatter and laughter.

Zhang Ningzhi couldn’t help but raise her head from the desk, looking at the two empty seats beside her, wondering what they were up to as class was about to start and they hadn’t returned yet.

Before long, the three of them arrived in the classroom with the bell, and as soon as they entered, there was a commotion from the front row.

"Damn, Fat Brother, you played games again? Why is your face so red?"

"Damn, such a strong smell of alcohol, they went drinking this afternoon!"

"Class rep, I’m reporting someone for drinking!"

"It’s tonic, tonic, what did you do to my Brother Ma?"

"Damn, Li Hua, don’t fall on me, damn."

"Did Jiang Nian drink?"

"Hey hey hey, don’t spread rumors." Jiang Nian pointed his hand, refuting, "Rumors stop at the wise, I’m allergic to alcohol, I didn’t have a drop."

The front few rows of the class were noisy, and Li Qingrong just curiously glanced at Jiang Nian. Seeing his face wasn’t red and he walked normally, she silently shifted her gaze away.

As long as things like this don’t happen frequently or get caught by the leader on the spot, nobody really cares.

Ma Guojun’s face was too red to rebut, so he silently returned to his seat.

Li Hua wasn’t any better, smelling entirely of alcohol.

Jiang Nian sat in the middle seat, entering before Li Hua, and sat down in an instant. Zhang Ningzhi slightly leaned over and sniffed, only catching a faint scent of alcohol.

She wasn’t sure if Jiang Nian drank, somewhat undecided, and suspiciously asked.

"Did you drink?"

Jiang Nian didn’t even raise his head, responding without hesitation.

"Just had tea, if you don’t believe me, ask the other two."

Hearing this, Zhang Ningzhi was half-believing, half-doubting, turning to look at Ma Guojun and Li Hua in the same row.

Fatty Baby took out a biology book, pretending to be standing for evening study, with his chubby hands supporting the desk.

No matter how he pretended to be nonchalant, his red face betrayed him.

Li Hua, who reeked of alcohol, was even worse off, unable to stand and simply lying down on the desk to sleep.

Jiang Nian patted the corpse-like Li Hua and asked aloud.

"Hua, did I drink?"

Li Hua was already somewhat out of it, unable to get up, just waving his hand in response.

This scene amused Jiang Nian, who turned to Zhang Ningzhi with a smile.

"See, I told you."

Zhang Ningzhi was half-believing, but ultimately, it didn’t have anything to do with her, so she couldn’t say much.

Couldn’t get closer to confirm, that would be too much.

Not happy.

After the evening study ended, they transitioned seamlessly into the evening self-study.

Li Hua sobered up a bit and went to the restroom to wash his face and rinse his mouth to avoid being caught by the teacher.

Following closely was Ma Guojun, while Jiang Nian stayed put at his seat.

Outside the deserted restroom, the lighting was dim.

The two of them simultaneously cupped some water with their hands and gargled, lifting their heads back.

"Damn! Jiang Nian is insufferable!" Li Hua couldn’t help cursing, "How did he do it? Clearly, we drank the same amount, yet he doesn’t smell of alcohol at all."

"The bastard must have secretly bought gum, I saw him lingering at the shop." Ma Guojun joined in the curse, "Too bad we can’t expose him."

"I’m telling you, if you had drank just one more glass, he wouldn’t have held it." Li Hua analyzed.

"Forget it, the game’s lost already." Ma Guojun was a bit speechless, washing his face again, summing up, "Anyway, we can’t drink with Jiang Nian again in the future."

....

In the classroom, Li Qingrong patted Jiang Nian’s shoulder and asked directly.

"Did you drink?"

Jiang Nian thought for a moment and honestly replied.

"Just a glass."

Li Qingrong looked at his raised finger and nodded.

"Okay."

Liar!

Zhang Ningzhi wrote on the test paper with force, glancing at Jiang Nian angrily. He clearly said he didn’t drink when she asked earlier.

When the class rep asked him, he told the truth, liar, long nose.

After Li Hua returned, seeing Jiang Nian’s mischievous look, he felt vexed but calmed down thinking about how he paid for the drinks.

Damn nouveau riche, losing money isn’t even a dent for him.

In the first evening self-study session, Qianbao strolled in, and the first thing was.

"Open the window, open the window, it’s not even winter yet, why keep the windows closed every day?"

Saying that, Qianbao began pacing around the class as usual, stopping in the aisle between Li Hua and Ma Guojun after just a few steps.

"I told you to open the windows for ventilation but you ignored me. It was just a bit sweaty usually, but why does it smell like alcohol today?"

Upon hearing this, a circle of people around burst into laughter, eagerly reporting.

"Teacher! The three of them next to you have been drinking!"

"Yes, teacher, I saw with my own eyes, they even drank by the case."

Hearing this, Qianbao caught the three of them and singled out Li Hua for questioning.

"How much did you drink?"

Quick-witted, Li Hua said, "Teacher, I only had a glass."

Qianbao glanced at him, "Then I’ll call your class teacher."

"Three bottles, three bottles, teacher I was wrong." Li Hua instantly kowtowed, "I’m already fine, it’s all digested."

"Oh? I still have a few sets of English papers." Qianbao crossed her arms over her chest.

"Teacher, actually, I still feel a little dizzy." Li Hua stalled.

Qianbao couldn’t be bothered with him and turned her attention to the big guy whose face wasn’t as red.

"Ma Guojun, how about you?"

The big guy quivered, confessing without being questioned, raising two chubby fingers.

"Two bottles."

"Alright, you all have future prospects. Three bottles and two bottles, doing well in English tests?"

Qianbao frowned. She usually didn’t intervene much but kept a close eye on Li Hua. During a leadership meeting, some singled-out performers were mentioned, practically naming Li Hua.

First, the nickname "Li Hua Line" was commonly used among the third-year seniors. Second, if Li Hua’s English improved, he could easily score over one hundred and two, getting into 958; there’s hope for C9.

Suddenly, Qianbao felt like she missed something. Turning her head, she noticed Jiang Nian sneaking back to his seat.

Qianbao: "..."

Jiang Nian looked up, locking eyes with Qianbao’s speechless gaze, and awkwardly stood up with a smile.

"Teacher, I figured you’d get tired lecturing them one by one, so I thought I’d lighten your load a bit."

Qianbao chuckled, sizing Jiang Nian up. Seeing nothing unusual about his complexion, as if he hadn’t drank, she questioned him as usual.

"How much did you drink?"

Jiang Nian paused for two seconds, raised two fingers, and shyly said.

"Teacher, I’m not good with alcohol, out of curiosity I had two small water-diluted glasses."

Upon hearing this, Li Hua and Ma Guojun turned their heads, staring at Jiang Nian with a strange look, as if to say his shamelessness reached a new height.

In the end, Qianbao took Li Hua away for a separate talk, while Jiang Nian and the big guy exchanged smiles.

A fellow in dire straits saved himself, he survived again!

After Qianbao left, the classroom gradually quieted down, with Jiang Nian doodling with a pen while working on problems. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Zhang Ningzhi watching him with an ethereal gaze.

Jiang Nian: "?"

After a session of evening self-study passed, after class, Jiang Nian prepared to relieve himself, having drunk too much, his bladder couldn’t withstand it.

Just as he stood up, his eyes met Li Qingrong’s cold gaze, an unusual hint of displeasure discernible from it.

"???"

Everyone... seems a bit strange.

Regardless, time to relieve myself, yay!

In the dimly lit hallway, Sun Zhicheng and Lin Dong leaned against the railing, chatting idly.

By chance, they saw Zhou Yuting coming over from the direction of the stairwell, and Sun Zhicheng suddenly had a strong premonition that he might have an encounter with Zhou Yuting shortly.

His gaze followed Zhou Yuting, almost losing track of Lin Dong’s words, as he entered a state of self-forgetfulness.

Suddenly, there was a clatter, and as Zhou Yuting walked by Sun Zhicheng’s side, a bunch of keys unexpectedly fell from her.

Sun Zhicheng was stunned, and then overwhelmed with unexpected joy.

Sixth sense! It worked!

He trembled all over, not even hearing Lin Dong calling him Ah Cheng, his mind went blank, and almost unconsciously, he bent down to pick up the keys.

However... a hand appeared in his vision, quicker than him.

At that moment, Sun Zhicheng’s mind went blank again. He turned in shock to see Jiang Nian’s perfect side profile, leaving him completely lost.

Why is it him again! Could he just die!

No matter how unhappy, he had to accept reality, losing to him again.

Sun Zhicheng prided himself on being a man of dignity, wouldn’t do something as vulgar as grabbing. He just smiled wryly, slowly retracting his hand, standing up again.

Zhou Yuting saw Jiang Nian helping her pick up the keys, and a sense of déjà-vu hit her.

In the past... he would take care of her scrupulously, could it be that Jiang Nian...

Jiang Nian reached for the keys on the ground, and the moment his fingers touched the keys, he suddenly took a sharp turn.

In a major twist, he simply squatted down to tie his shoelaces.

Three seconds later, he stood up and left nonchalantly.

In the hallway, Zhou Yuting and Sun Zhicheng were left disoriented in the night wind.

What the hell... such a nutcase!

Lin Dong was also taken aback, then laughed, running over to Jiang Nian. Catching up from behind, he gently tapped Jiang Nian’s shoulder.

"Brother Nian, do you have a beef with Zhou Yuting?"

"Nope." Jiang Nian turned back with a puzzled look, "Why do you ask?"

"I saw it just now, you didn’t even pick up her keys." Lin Dong had a look that said he didn’t believe Jiang Nian, "If you say there’s no grudge between you two, I really don’t buy it."

Jiang Nian thought for a moment, seriously said,

"Actually, I’m a new type of introverted puppy, earlier I was too nervous, so I didn’t pick up the keys. I felt a bit awkward, so I left first."

"Dong, in the future, don’t say things that aren’t conducive to unity among classmates."
