Chapter 235: Chapter 202: This Isn’t Funny

Sitting in Yao Beibei’s seat, feeling completely unfamiliar with the surroundings.

Jiang Nian didn’t want to speak up.

He looked down and saw two comic books in the desk hole, casually pulled them out for a glance. Along with that, he unwrapped two candies, popped one in his mouth and pocketed the other.

No need to be polite with Yao Beibei, just take what you can.

Tao Ran walked in from outside the classroom. With the parents’ meeting approaching, the grade group naturally called the class leaders for a meeting. Last time it was Cai Xiaoqing’s turn to go, this time it was his turn.

As the public servant of his classmates, Tao Ran was without complaint or regret.

He walked up to the podium and coughed to announce several matters. They were all the same old topics, like classroom hygiene and setting up the parents’ meeting venue.

Suddenly, Tao Ran mentioned something new.

"Well... tomorrow, students whose parents are confirmed to come to the meeting must write heartfelt letters to them. I will hand out the material paper later, and it must be written."

As soon as he finished speaking, half the class exploded.

"Damn, are you serious? Do we really have to be this dumb?"

"Damn, it’s that touching education thing again, isn’t it disgusting!"

"Beep beep, in the game of finding school leaders’ relatives, I got a score of zero. I’m just so happy, let’s all congratulate me."

The class was filled with complaints, like a wailing multitude.

Jiang Nian scratched his face, showing indifference.

Old Jiang and Comrade Li Hongmei wouldn’t attend the parents’ meeting, so there was no need to write those awkward little notes.

Feeling unfamiliar and with no one to complain to.

Missing Zhizhi on the first day.

The materials were passed down from the front to the back, even those whose parents weren’t coming took some. There was no harm in taking them, they could be used as scrap paper, which was as scarce as toilet paper.

Seeing Yu Zhiyi in the seat ahead take several sheets, Jiang Nian also followed suit and took several sheets for Yao Beibei.

The reason he didn’t take any for himself wasn’t out of some sudden benevolence. Rather, he was used to using Zhang Ningzhi’s scrap paper, low-grade paper just wasn’t his thing.

Yu Zhiyi wasn’t too keen on writing; she wasn’t sure if her parents were coming.

If possible, she’d prefer they didn’t come. Ever since their falling out, there had been almost zero communication except for sending living expenses, and meeting up would be awkward.

Sometimes, on weekends, she would hear her roommates sweet-talking their parents on the phone.

Occasionally, she’d feel a bit envious, but most times she was indifferent.

She couldn’t imagine herself sweet-talking her parents, only wishing they wouldn’t fight and smash things during the New Year, and wouldn’t make her embarrassed in front of the neighbors.

"Aren’t you going to write?"

A voice came from behind, and Yu Zhiyi didn’t need to turn around to know who it was.

"No, my parents aren’t coming."

Her tone was flat, devoid of any emotion. It carried a strong implication of keeping people at a distance, mixed with the subtext of ’I’m in a bad mood, don’t mess with me.’

The average person might not know how to continue the conversation, but Jiang Nian was from Class 3.

"I’m on duty tomorrow, can try to cover for you."

Yu Zhiyi was speechless, turned and glanced at him.

"That’s not funny."

Jiang Nian rubbed his chin, thought for a moment.

"I think it’s okay."

If it were someone else saying this, Yu Zhiyi might have felt offended. She would even think that person might be crazy, but when Jiang Nian said it, it felt harmonious.

No doubt about it, he was just a nutcase.

Thinking of himself as some kind of welfare fairy? Silly Jiang Nian.

Yu Zhiyi felt somewhat rebellious, the more indifferent Jiang Nian behaved with his indiscriminate attacks, the less she got annoyed. She turned around and started writing the materials.

After finishing, she turned back and said.

"You better remember to check tomorrow, otherwise..."

Jiang Nian didn’t care at all about her threat, just looking for some fun.

"Will check."

After the evening study class dismissed.

Except for the fifth group, who had to stay to clean and decorate the classroom, everyone else left.

In some sense, the sixth group that Jiang Nian belonged to had an advantage. The hard work didn’t fall on them, they only needed to serve water to the parents tomorrow.

Servants, maids, whatever you want to call it.

On the way home, Xu Qianqian was in a good mood.

She wore a navy blue jacket and cream pants. As she passed by the street, the shop lights illuminated her already fair skin, making it appear even whiter.

"Tonight, I’m going to watch movies until three o’clock."

Hearing this, Jiang Nian asked.

"Is Uncle Xu home?"

"Why do you want to know?" Xu Qianqian immediately became wary and distanced herself a bit, "He went out of town a couple of days ago, you don’t mean to..."

Jiang Nian retorted, "Don’t you want to?"

Xu Qianqian blushed, fidgeted and said.

"It’s not too good, if your mom finds out, you’re definitely going to get scolded."

Under the streetlight, Jiang Nian stopped walking.

"Hold on, so you won’t get scolded?"

"Of course not, Aunt Li definitely won’t scold me." Xu Qianqian, like a proud little swan, cast a disdainful glance at him, "Can we—be! The same?"

Damn it, wait until I get you pregnant, then you’ll know if we can be the same.

The barbecue stand was crowded, the smoke being blown up into the sky by a fan.

This place had good barbecue skills, with seven or eight tables set outside. At a rough glance, most were filled with people, chatting and laughing while skewering meat.

There was a table of roughneck types on the outer edge, shouting and boasting loudly.

This made the neighboring table’s patrons frown frequently, but they dared not speak up in front of their family.

Seeing this, Xu Qianqian lowered her head and hid behind Jiang Nian.

"Boss, these... to go."

He pointed at the menu, skillfully ordering some favorite barbecues for the two of them. He ignored the loud boasting from the roughnecks, not caring at all.

This small town was a mini-society; they were just roughneck types, not idiots.

Each minded their own business, not bothering anyone.

Even so, he shielded Xu Qianqian thoroughly. Without any clever quips, he played on his phone while chatting with her.

"It’s a pity the fruit stand is closed, I’ll rummage through the fridge at home to see if there are any fruits left."

Xu Qianqian wasn’t exactly bold but certainly cautious.

Though she usually flaunted herself in front of Jiang Nian, she’d still be afraid of encountering strange people. If Jiang Nian weren’t there, she wouldn’t even come close.

A gentleman doesn’t stand on a wall at risk, unless it’s for re-housing after demolition.

"Yeah, my fridge has drinks." Xu Qianqian raised her head, seeing his smooth jawline. Below it was an Adam’s apple, and his fair skin gave off a calm vibe.

The damn guy, when he’s not acting weird, is actually quite pleasing to the eye.

Unfortunately...

The barbecue was packed up, and Jiang Nian carried it with Xu Qianqian as they left.

A few minutes later, a group of young students, male and female, approached the barbecue stand. Leading them was a tall guy.

Liu Feipeng was feeling a bit down; recently, there was quite a talent drain in his small circle.

After Zhou Yuting’s promotion, her first move seemed to be cutting him off. She once called him Brother Peng so affectionately, but now she couldn’t even meet up, and she replied to messages very slowly.

It felt... like Zhou Yuting was a bit indifferent towards him now.

Le Zhi buried himself in studies, and without Zhou Yuting, he didn’t join any activities. He seemed to have vanished from the world, leaving the group and deleting contacts.

The friend he should’ve gotten along with, Yu Shao, was also offended by his own wrong words.

Sigh, this period indeed was full of misfortunes.

Pitiful, yesterday the flowers were bright, today they seem to be fading.

"Order whatever you want, tonight it’s on me!" Liu Feipeng laughed heartily, dissipating the stuffiness in his chest, "First, let’s have two crates of beer!"

The people beside him cheered upon hearing this.

The cheers displeased the roughnecks at the other table, who hurled a couple of curse words. Basically saying little brats, not even old and already xxx is quite xxx.

The curses were too filthy, which Liu Feipeng’s followers couldn’t tolerate.

The one with the fiercest temper cranked his neck, glaring at those people with bull-like eyes.

"What the hell did you say!"

"Talking about you! So what! Little brat’s quite fierce."

...

Click, Li Qingrong came out of the bathroom.

Her hair was wet, wrapped in a blue towel. Her face was rosy, with a cool expression, eyes lacking emotion, as she blow-dried her hair strand by strand.

The phone on the table buzzed, but Li Qingrong didn’t even glance at it.

She only moved after her hair was completely dry, looking at her phone. Three missed calls and several unread messages, all from one woman.

[Hehe, heard you have a parents’ meeting tomorrow, can your sister come?]

Li Qingrong lowered her gaze, replied to the message.

"1."

Soon, another message popped up.

"What do you mean? Am I not qualified to go? I’m heartbroken, rushed back specially to see you, didn’t even tell our parents, only you."

"I want to go, want to go, want to go."

Li Qingrong replied, "1."

The other side seemed a bit off, sent eleven messages in a row.

"Ahh!! You don’t even want to acknowledge me!"

Li Qingrong opened the woman’s WeChat profile, directly blocked her. The world finally quieted down, and she couldn’t help but sit idly by the chair.

After thinking for a bit, she opened Jiang Nian’s profile, finding no access.

Knock knock knock.

Knocking sounds echoed, Xu Qianqian quietly opened the door, feeling quite resentful.

"Why are you so late?"

A sliver of light slipped through the door gap, spreading out like silk threads.

Jiang Nian, carrying a large bag, blocked most of the light with his tall figure. Hearing the resentful tone, he couldn’t help but retort directly.

"Came right after bathing, doesn’t it take time to wash grapes?"

Damn, do you really think I’m doing some craftwork in the bathroom?

"Okay, I wronged you." Xu Qianqian’s willingness to admit fault was swift, capable of bending and stretching, "I’ll help you carry stuff, hurry and come in, don’t let others see you."

"Why does it feel like we’re stealing?" Jiang Nian entered the door.

Click, the door closed, the living room was brightly lit.

Xu Qianqian just finished her shower, with slightly wet hair clinging to her cheeks. Her features were clean, skin tender as if it could be pinched out, eyes carrying a thin mist.

"You’re the thief, I fear you’d disturb the neighbors."

"Disturb the neighbors, then you... just don’t scream too loudly." Jiang Nian deliberately hesitated for a moment, sure enough, he was hit by Xu Qianqian the next second.

"One more word and I’ll twist your head off!" Her tone was fierce.

Jiang Nian raised both hands, saluting in the French military style.

"Alright, I’ll stop."

Actually, he’s quite afraid of Xu Qianqian getting angry, this person is a bit petty. When fooling around to a certain point, he had to pull back the boundary, leaving it for the next trial.

"Eat, eat, eat, if you don’t eat, the barbecue will get cold." Jiang Nian popped open a can of Sprite, raised it and clinked with Xu Qianqian, "Forget the past, forget the future."

"In short, enjoy the holidays."
