Chapter 223: Chapter 191: When Three People Walk Together, There Must Be a Foolish King

The third evening self-study session ended.

Yao Beibei glanced sideways at Jiang Nian, feeling like killing him.

This guy is annoying to the core.

No idea how Zhizhi sits with him every day, enduring this kind of person.

Just one evening sitting with him gave me a headache, wanting to die; he’s simply a bad apple.

"What’s up with this punk?" Jiang Nian leaned over, asking curiously, "I just saw you muttering, Huang Beibei, you weren’t cursing Li Hua, were you?"

Li Hua, enraged, turned his head and said.

"What did I do to you guys!"

"Get lost, get lost." Yao Beibei looked disgusted, "Don’t ask. Knowing too much is of no benefit to you."

Upon hearing this, Li Hua made abstract sounds like "hmm-hmm, no way," rolling on the seat like an eel, spreading joy.

A burst of laughter erupted around them, with half the classroom filled with a joyful atmosphere.

"What the hell, what’s burning?"

"Li Hua’s burning."

"This sound is so hot it’s making my pants stand."

"What? What’s happening? Never mind. Forgot earlier, forgot later, but he’s definitely into me."

Yao Beibei got goosebumps instantly, realizing something—close association with bad company can corrupt.

Li Hua himself is like a blob of black ink, further influenced by Jiang Nian. Now he’s just a mess of darkness, a bit disgusting.

It’s over, this group is done for.

Among three people walking together, there’s bound to be one who acts foolishly.

This means among three guys walking together, there’s bound to be someone foolishly acting up. They’re not often clear-headed, excelling in nonsense babbling.

No doubt, Li Hua is the crowned fool among Jiang Nian, Ma Guojun, and him.

"Damn, what are they doing?"

Li Hua was dazed by the class’s Nantong atmosphere, but didn’t dare to really faint.

In this class, you can’t sleep too soundly during breaks. Keep one eye open to avoid getting pranked.

Jiang Nian laughed, enjoying watching Li Hua make a fool of himself and getting punished by the class.

"It’s alright, just disgusting them a little more will do."

Hearing this, Li Hua was half-convinced.

"Really?"

"Then I....." Li Hua pretended to attack then retreated, using a husky emoji, "Xiao Nianzi, are you trying to betray me?"

"I’ll burn your descendants’ bag, do you believe it?"

.....

"No!! This is impossible!"

Under the sophomore building, a young couple walked shoulder to shoulder back to the dormitory after school.

Yang Qiming looked at the scene ahead, feeling as if he had plunged into an ice cave. Exhausted, he staggered back several steps, dropping the gift and shrimp dumpling bag.

Huang Caicai gasped and his eyes widened in shock.

"No!!!"

People’s sorrows aren’t the same, but they coexist.

Yang Qiming was about to cry, and Huang Caicai was also on the verge of tears.

The two stood out in the crowd, looking a bit awkward with their large and small bags. As people passed, they occasionally glanced back, casting strange looks at the two boys.

"Hey, those two are so weird."

"Are they sophomores or freshmen?"

"They don’t look like it, must be those old seniors from grade three."

"Weird, shouldn’t they be at evening self-study? Someone go chat with them, ask their class, and I’ll report it to the grade three office later."

Class 3, a brightly lit classroom.

Li Hua suddenly felt something and stopped writing.

"Nian, I’m not doing homework anymore."

Jiang Nian glanced at him and snorted.

"Planning to quit tonight?"

Li Hua shook his head, wearing an expression like "you’re thinking too small, you’re too narrow-minded."

"No, I’ve realized that homework is never-ending, life is a wilderness not a track. Whether I do one question or one test paper, I have my limits."

Jiang Nian mercilessly shattered his illusion.

"Wake up, baby. You don’t have a mine to run wild with. Once your mom cuts off your allowance, you’ll settle down."

Hearing this, Yao Beibei burst into laughter.

"Two kids arguing over the sun."

"Chi Shi, Chi Shi, Chi Shi!" Li Hua blushed slightly, retorting, "I don’t have it; do you have it?"

Jiang Nian smiled subtly, "You’re getting nervous."

"Chi Shi!"

Yu Zhiyi listened to the disciplinary committee reprimanding Li Hua and turned her gaze away from Jiang Nian’s row.

Those two are really odd.

She moved, unconsciously frowned, and slowly reached back. Touching her shoulder, she pretended to massage it while discreetly adjusting her shoulder strap through her clothes.

Lately, it seems like I’ve gained a bit of weight; it’s a bit tight and painful.

She didn’t even need to lift her clothes to know her shoulder was likely marked by a red line. Suddenly feeling powerless, she just wanted evening self-study to end quickly.

Zhou Yuting was focused on her homework, not knowing how long had passed.

Suddenly, she had a bad premonition.

She raised her head, allocating some of her precious study time. Mercifully scanning around, she suddenly found the Left and Right Guardians were missing.

She seemed to have heard something like human whispers about going to the restroom.

So... did they fall into the toilet?

Thinking of this, Zhou Yuting felt nervous.

These two oddballs wouldn’t climb out through the sewers, right? Hope they come back safe.

Sun Zhicheng was watching Yang Qiming, considering they were once rivals who fought. Seeing they hadn’t returned for a while, he grew suspicious and turned to Lin Dong.

"Brother Dong, do you know what Yang Qiming is up to?"

"Qiming, my cousin?" Lin Dong looked puzzled, glancing at Yang Qiming’s seat, "Hey, really, those two are gone, where’d they go?"

Lin Dong had been on his phone all evening, barely focusing on his work. He was keeping tabs on several side accounts for small exploits, his mind not on studies.

Studies can wait for a few days, but money can’t.

Upon hearing this, Sun Zhicheng knew Lin Dong was of no help.

"No worries, Brother Dong, carry on with what you were doing."

"Sure, just let me know when the teacher comes." Lin Dong continued to scribble on his paper, "Bless the kind soul with an A-cup throughout life, thanks, Ah Cheng."

Sun Zhicheng: "...."

He looked over at Chen Yunyun, who was focused on her studies, and was lost in thought.

Last time’s fight with Yang Qiming might’ve already left a bad impression; if I report him directly, it might seem like a personal vendetta.

While logically justified, it won’t hold up emotionally.

After contemplating for a moment, he suddenly had a bright idea.

"Disciplinary committee, I need to use the restroom."

Cai Xiaoqing, busy with her work, looked up slightly annoyed.

"School’s about to end soon..."

As she looked up, she saw the empty seats of Yang Qiming and Huang Caicai and was stunned.

"They aren’t back yet?"

....

Ring ring ring!

Evening self-study dismissed, and the students rushed out like a burst dam.

Jiang Nian, no exception, grabbed his bag and dashed out. He and Xu Qianqian had an understanding to head home early, not lingering a second longer at school if possible.

As they descended the stairs, they exchanged a glance amidst the crowd.

No words needed, they instinctively walked down the stairs along with the crowd. Finally, they met at the propaganda board flowerbed outside the teaching building and headed home together.

"Jiang Nian, how was the shrimp dumpling today?" Xu Qianqian walked ahead, glancing back at him with a hint of fishing in her eyes.

"Well, to be honest, I swallowed them right away, didn’t taste much," Jiang Nian replied cautiously, "No investigation, no right to speak, so..."

Xu Qianqian’s mouth twitched as she glanced at him.

"Are you Zhu Bajie?"

Jiang Nian shrugged indifferently, spreading his hands.

"Yeah, so what?"

"You!!" Xu Qianqian was speechless, having met such a shameless rogue, "Actually, I have something I want to ask your opinion about."

"What is it?"

"Just a small thing, I want to get an ear piercing," Xu Qianqian said softly.

"Go for it." Jiang Nian was indifferent, "I fully support you, one piercing on each side, and once you’re healed, I’ll gift you a pair of silver earrings."

Their relationship was such that gifting some silver was no big deal.

Gold was still a bit far off.

As for risks like infection from ear piercing, just spending a bit of money to have it done in a clean place was fine.

Xu Qianqian had money, and who knows how much she stored in her little treasury. Her closet was also full of cheap JK skirts, so she wouldn’t save on that little money.

"Thank you." She suddenly blushed, stammering, "I have a slightly bold request, hoping you’ll agree."

"What request?"

"Well... I heard ear piercing is painful, and I’m a bit scared," Xu Qianqian said, "Could you get one first and tell me how much it hurts?"

Jiang Nian: "????"

"You..... damn, that’s too bold." He laughed in exasperation and grabbed Xu Qianqian’s backpack, "You’re just finding ways to mess with me."

Xu Qianqian shrank back slightly, "Then forget it, I won’t get it either."

Jiang Nian let go of Xu Qianqian, and they continued walking towards home.

The streetlights flickered, and the lights danced.

"Boo hoo, does it mean I can’t wear earrings in the future?" Xu Qianqian pouted, fake crying as she walked forward, "Just try it."

"I can try being your dad, just try that." Jiang Nian retorted, "I’ll use a sewing needle to poke it for you, anyway, we have iodophor at home."

Xu Qianqian looked horrified, "You’re trying to stab me!"

....

North District, boys’ dormitory.

"Bro, don’t be sad." Huang Caicai shoved a shrimp dumpling into his mouth, mumbling, "She’s not worth a good man like you."

Yang Qiming stood dejectedly by the dorm window, his face numb.

"I’m not sad, just realized some things."

Turns out the argument wasn’t a buildup of frustration; it was premeditated. On that day at the milk tea shop, even without encountering Jiang Nian, we would’ve argued over something else.

The roommate saw this and asked curiously.

"What’s up with him?"

Huang Caicai hesitated, unsure whether to speak.

But then he saw Yang Qiming turn, with a relaxed smile always on his face, and he told his roommates.

"Nothing, today’s my birthday."

The roommates exchanged glances, suddenly understanding.

"Oh, no wonder Yang brother, you got a cake too, whoa, this big cake must cost over a hundred, right?"

"More than that, bumpkin, it’s two layers."

"Brother Yang, happy birthday!"

Listening to his roommates’ birthday wishes for Yang Qiming, Huang Caicai was stunned.

"Brother Yang....."

"It’s nothing, just call Brother Dong for me." Yang Qiming scratched his head, the smile still bright, "After all, today’s my birthday, more people, more fun."
