Chapter 311: Chapter 275 (Thanks to the Alliance Leader for living in the prosperous era, the generous reward from the illusion master) The Procrastinators are never at a loss

Boom! Crash.....

Outside, the wind howled, and heavy rain poured down.

The curtains in the classroom were tightly closed, the lights bright, and the air was stuffy and damply cold.

The morning was still the weekly test, except for changing seats, the atmosphere was no different from the usual self-study while doing the test papers.

The math teacher on the podium was both solving problems and invigilating the exam.

A clap of rolling thunder passed, and the classroom was instantly filled with the screams of girls. Among them were some strange sounds, making it hard to keep a straight face.

"Ah!"

"You’re a guy... damn it, where are you grabbing?"

"The guys in this class are really perverts."

While the math teacher wasn’t paying attention, Wang Yuhe quietly lifted the curtain to glance outside and saw the rain pouring down like a waterfall.

She was startled, lay back on the desk, and smelled the scent of the ink on the test paper. She hadn’t expected it to rain so heavily; it hadn’t been like this in the last class.

It reminded her of a disaster movie she had watched before. At first, people thought it was just a light rain, until a week of continuous heavy rain.

The entire neighborhood was flooded, later expanding to the community, the city; everywhere in sight turned into a rolling muddy yellow ocean.

Then the male and female leads suddenly started a romance, and she lost interest in it.

....

Zhang Ningzhi’s seat for the weekly test was by the window, and a clap of thunder almost scared her to death.

She remembered last time it thundered, she told Jiang Nian her worries in a low voice. As a result, that heartless person scared her with a story about ball lightning.

He claimed that in thunderstorm weather, a kind of floating ball-shaped lightning would be produced, and if touched, people would turn into a pile of ash.

At that time, Zhang Ningzhi was so angry she ignored him for two classes, thinking that if he realized his mistake, she might graciously reconcile with him.

But when she turned around, she found him chatting with Li Hua.

Now, unfortunately, Zhang Ningzhi remembered it again. She was afraid that lightning might strike into the classroom, and she happened to be sitting miserably by the window.

If something unexpected happened, she’d be the first to bear the brunt.

Luckily, the rain outside was gradually decreasing, and nothing unexpected occurred.

The heavy rain lasted for a full hour, only tapering off as the math weekly test was about to end.

At the same time.

Jiang Nian was also working on the math test, feeling a bit anxious. He was stuck on a problem, and the tight space of his seat made him feel somewhat annoyed.

Yesterday was Sunday, and they changed seats once, but during the weekly test..... With time, no one cared anymore. After the test, everyone returned to their original seats, doing whatever they pleased.

In the past, at least the desks would be cleared, but now it’s just books piled under the bench. The seats have gotten narrower, making it very constrained.

Even if the class monitor was with him during the weekly test, still...

Li Qingrong turned her head and glanced at the twisting and turning Jiang Nian.

There was a hint of curiosity in her eyes as she looked at his test paper. She noticed he seemed unable to solve a problem and couldn’t help but lower her gaze.

Jiang Nian was working hard on calculations when he suddenly felt someone beside him tap him.

Just as he was about to turn his head, he saw a slender, fair finger breaking into his view in slow motion, followed by a fair hand.

You have to admit, the class monitor’s hand was really pale.

He watched as the hand paused for a moment on his draft paper, then landed on a certain step of his, tapping and indicating a number.

3.

Why did it look like an OK sign?

Jiang Nian was unsure, his expression a bit hesitant.

He thought to himself, someone like the class monitor wouldn’t be indicating an OK sign, would she? So it must be 3, but the number he calculated was definitely not 3?

Where did it come from?

Li Qingrong saw he was still hesitating and inevitably felt a little puzzled.

She thought about it and figured it wasn’t possible that Jiang Nian couldn’t even calculate 3. It must be due to something else, but just in case, she wrote it anyway.

So, Li Qingrong used her finger to mark on the draft paper again.

Jiang Nian felt somewhat distracted, thinking how pretty her hands were. If she were his girlfriend, would he hold or lick her hand the first second they were together?

That was a bit perverted, but it was his inner voice.

Li Qingrong, seeing he still had no reaction, withdrew her hand. She couldn’t help but glance at him again, with a hint of helplessness.

As if to say, what can be done if you’re a bit dumb?

Jiang Nian didn’t care at all and directly turned to look at Li Qingrong’s answer. Since it was already more or less cheating anyway, he might as well go all in.

He successfully saw the answer, square root of 2.

The school bell rang.

The sky remained dark, and every classroom in the senior high school building was lit.

Those with umbrellas had already left, while those without were in a hurry. Some were asking their boarding classmates to bring umbrellas, while others simply braved the rain home.

Luo Yong was contemplating the rain outside, hesitating whether to just make a dash for it.

He wasn’t a boarding student nor a commuting one but had rented an apartment in the teachers’ residence outside the school. It was quite close, about a hundred meters away.

Living alone had many advantages, and it was convenient for daily meals and housing. In the afternoon, he could go back to the rented place for a nap, though it did waste some paper.

While he was still hesitating, he suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder and turned around to find Lin Dong.

"Hmm?"

"Didn’t bring an umbrella?" Lin Dong asked.

"Yeah, sigh." Luo Yong sighed, worried, "I don’t know if the rain might lessen later, but it could be a mistake to run now."

"What are you afraid of? If it rains harder later, you’ll regret it even more." Lin Dong said.

Luo Yong was convinced and turned to ask Lin Dong.

"Are you leaving?"

"Yeah, let’s go!"

The two of them then left the classroom together, disappearing into the depths of the hallway. They plunged into the crowd of people going downstairs, ready to head down.

Suddenly, Luo Yong turned to Lin Dong and asked.

"Your dormitory is so far; do you take a shower right after getting soaked?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong looked at Luo Yong with a puzzled expression.

"Why would I get soaked?"

As Luo Yong watched in surprise, Lin Dong tapped the shoulder of a girl in front of him.

The girl turned around, and Luo Yong recognized her as the math class representative from the neighboring class.

Lin Dong had chatted with her on QQ before, so they started chatting warmly. But Luo Yong had no idea and stood there completely bewildered.

We are all brothers; I keep brothers close, and you throw brothers under the bus?

On the ground floor, many students without umbrellas or waiting for one crowded the hallway, nervously waiting. Quite a few already had their phones out, playing with them absentmindedly.

Soon, Luo Yong saw Lin Dong walking into the rain alongside the math class representative from the neighboring class, both sharing an umbrella.

He watched the two of them walking away, feeling a chill in his heart with no warmth at all.

.....

Jiang Nian didn’t have an umbrella, but he wasn’t anxious at all.

He jokingly told Chen Yunyun during the break to bring back some food on her way to the classroom. But at that time, whether she took it seriously depended on the weather.

When it started pouring heavily, Jiang Nian specifically went to her spot again to remind her not to bring an umbrella.

After all, the dormitory canteen is quite far from the teaching building, and the roads were full of puddles and rain. Running back and forth would get one wet, and washing your hair....would go to waste.

If Chen Yunyun and the others went back to wash their hair, a nap in the dorm room would be more worthwhile.

As for him, he’d just wait.

After all, there’s Zhizhi.

So, those who wait never lose.

Jiang Nian turned his head and saw Zhang Ningzhi packing up her things, so he asked:

"Do you have an umbrella?"

In this world, nothing is as important as your deskmate, except maybe a dog.

Although Jiang Nian occasionally liked to provoke Zhang Ningzhi on purpose, the two were still deskmates regardless. At times like these, it’s more convenient to find your deskmate.

Zhang Ningzhi finished tidying up her desk and looked up at him.

"Yes, I do."

"Great, now I have an umbrella too."

Zhang Ningzhi couldn’t be bothered to bicker with him and suggested:

"My dad is picking me up. Why don’t I walk you to the gate and give you the umbrella there?"

Jiang Nian was a bit bewildered upon hearing this, thinking that would involve meeting her dad? He just wanted to borrow an umbrella; there wasn’t any need for that, especially not on a rainy day.

"No need for that hassle. Just take me to the canteen door."

"Okay."

Jiang Nian didn’t think much of it, took the umbrella from Zhang Ningzhi, and went downstairs together.

There weren’t many people in the hallway, as most who could leave for lunch had already left. From the fourth floor looking out, it was a sky full of clouds, nearly every classroom lit up.

He sighed, "So many people without umbrellas."

Hearing this, Zhang Ningzhi couldn’t help but look into other classes.

"How are they going to get home?"

"I wouldn’t know. Blame it on them for not having a good deskmate." Jiang Nian chuckled, displaying his usual roguish manner, "Crap, they heard us, quick, let’s go!"

Zhang Ningzhi was dragged along by him, confusedly going downstairs.

Outside the passage on the first floor, the hall hung a huge LED display showing: [200 days remaining until the college entrance examination].

She glanced at it and was immediately pricked by the red numbers, turning around, she said:

"Jiang Nian, in two days, it’ll be 100 days countdown to the finals."

"What’s this ’100 day countdown’ thing? Jiang Nian glanced at the rainy mist and retorted.

The rain outside wasn’t that heavy, and since Zhang Ningzhi’s umbrella was in his hand, naturally he held it. From the canteen to the school gate, it was a straightforward path.

"It’s over a hundred days, look at the wall." Zhang Ningzhi pointed at the countdown numbers.

"Yeah, cherish your deskmate." Jiang Nian gave her a glance and popped open the pink umbrella, "Let’s go, I’ll run over directly later."

The two of them shared the umbrella stepping into the rain, Zhang Ningzhi couldn’t help but ask again:

"I’ll escort you to the canteen’s side road, then how will you get back to the classroom?"

"I don’t know, whatever." Jiang Nian shrugged, genuinely having not thought that far, "Hmm... maybe find someone I know, or simply hop under someone’s umbrella."

"Oh." Zhang Ningzhi wasn’t brave enough to share an umbrella with strangers.

However, boys are generally bolder. She didn’t ask further, just vaguely sensed Jiang Nian seeming reluctant to meet her dad?

It felt like he was somewhat guilty, could it be... all boys are like that?

Forget it, leave it at that.

Jiang Nian remained unaware of her internal turmoil, noticing they were nearing the canteen. He prepared to return the umbrella to Zhang Ningzhi and was ready to sprint a short distance through the rain himself.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Zhang Ningzhi’s collar wasn’t properly fastened.

Without thinking much of it, a good deskmate is someone who does everything. He naturally extended his hand, quickly tidying her collar and smoothing it down.

Zhang Ningzhi was lost in thought when she suddenly felt a touch on her neck.

She snapped back and realized Jiang Nian was adjusting her collar for her. His fingers brushed against her neck, feeling a bit cool, but her face quickly flushed.

Her face blushed all the way to the roots of her ears, her voice stuttered a bit.

"Wha... what is it?"
