Chapter 35: Chapter 35 Brother, You Smell Good

"I’ll treat you to barbecue tomorrow." ("Three-phrase Daddy.")

Both spoke in unison, squinting their eyes as if saying, you rascal.

"The barbecue at the school gate gives me an upset stomach every other time, it’s like a blind box inside a blind box." Jiang Nian was furious, "She’s a wicked witch, doesn’t know that regicide is punishable by death!"

"And just how much better are you?" Xu Qianqian sneered, "I’m telling my dad! You’re taking advantage of me."

"What the hell?"

After some bickering, Jiang Nian finally got down to business.

It’s almost midnight, and tomorrow we have to get up early for school, plus there’s an English quiz. Without a good night’s sleep, we won’t make it, better finish this early and go back to sleep.

After wandering around the living room, Jiang Nian still couldn’t find any trace of the mouse.

"Are you sure there’s a Jerry?"

"Why would I lie to you, am I bored?" Xu Qianqian gritted her teeth, suddenly thinking of something, "Maybe it’s because the lights are on, and the mouse won’t come out."

"So should we turn off the lights?" Jiang Nian suddenly got bashful, teasingly, "Actually, I prefer the lights on, I can see better."

Xu Qianqian clenched her fist, who asked about your preferences?

Jiang Nian found several mouse glue traps and placed them along the wall lines of the sofa and fridge. He also put one at the door of Xu Qianqian’s room, holding a rubber baton in his hand.

Click, the lights were completely turned off.

Suddenly, both were left in darkness. After a few seconds, they gradually adapted. The living room was pitch black; they stood at a distance, able to vaguely make out each other’s faces in the dark.

In the darkness, Jiang Nian seemed to see Xu Qianqian turning her head away, avoiding his gaze.

Suddenly, a chirping sound arose.

"It’s here!" Xu Qianqian said.

"Hmm." Jiang Nian gestured for Xu Qianqian to stay put, quietly moving in the direction of the sound, gripping the rubber baton tightly.

The mouse seemed to sense danger, after a quiet moment, it suddenly darted out from the sofa.

Xu Qianqian let out a yelp, and Jiang Nian, quick on his feet, struck the shadow swiftly with a series of five lightning-like blows. Master Ma’s essence was fully displayed at that moment.

Emperor Jerry, though swift, couldn’t avoid being hit and immediately turned to run towards the corner. Following the wall line, it dashed forward like a bolt of lightning.

Chirp chirp chirp!!!

The quickly moving shadow came to a sudden halt, as if trapped like a shut-in detective, desperately struggling, yelling loudly, while watching humans approach.

"Did you catch it?" Xu Qianqian swallowed a gulp of saliva.

"Turn on the lights."

Click, the lights came on suddenly.

Right in front of Jiang Nian, on a mouse glue trap, was Emperor Jerry’s figure, large and humiliated, subdued in this small space.

Another piece of the glue trap had been knocked over, lying scattered beside it.

"I have to say, this mouse..." Jiang Nian squatted down, examining it closely, with a serious expression.

"What’s wrong with the mouse?" Xu Qianqian immediately got nervous and walked over to him, unable to resist asking, "Did it confess where its accomplices are?"

"No, I mean, it looks quite handsome."

"Go to hell!"

"Tsk tsk, how could you...?" Jiang Nian turned his head, just happening to see her evenly proportioned calf exposed by her white nightgown.

The pink toes peeking out of the slippers were glossy, neatly arranged, looking petite and cute, with a faint aroma of milk and body wash lingering at the nose.

A girl next door feeling indeed.

How come I never noticed before, Xu Qianqian’s got a bit of a goddess vibe going on.

"What’s wrong?" Xu Qianqian thought he found traces of another mouse and became genuinely nervous.

"Nothing, just suddenly realized something..."

"What?"

"Bro, you smell nice."

"You go die, pervert!" Xu Qianqian blushed, kicking him down with a leg, perhaps because of the embarrassment, initially intending to tell Jiang Nian to get lost.

In the end, Xu Qianqian’s eyes, brimming with physiological tears, blurted out a word.

"Ribbit!"

Instantly, the atmosphere quieted down, and neither could hold it in; they laughed for a while.

"You’re not allowed to laugh!"

"Hahaha, then you first... haha, stop laughing! Haha...." Jiang Nian sat there laughing, while Xu Qianqian tried to stay serious but couldn’t hold back, turning away instead.

"Jiang Nian, you’re so annoying!"

"Hahaha, damn." Jiang Nian laughed to the point his stomach hurt, while closing the glue trap, saying, "Not a bad catch, hearing a frog call at night."

"You..."

"Why can’t I ribbit?" Jiang Nian mischievously smiled, carrying Emperor Jerry’s coffin to the door, "Give me a ribbit, and I’ll roll away immediately."

Xu Qianqian’s face was completely red, wishing she could hit him twice. Even after Jiang Nian left, her blush hadn’t faded; she locked the door silently and returned to her room.

Facing the toy on the bed, she delivered a series of soft punches. The toy’s smiling face caved in slightly.

If only it had rotted away in the factory.

Next day.

Jiang Nian went to school yawning by himself, not bothering to ask Xu Qianqian if she wanted to go together. The matter of Xu Qianqian standing him up yesterday was left unresolved.

No explanation needed, then forget it.

A matter of fact, today after evening self-study, he definitely wouldn’t wait for Xu Qianqian at Olympic competition 304.

Ring ring ring.

The first morning class was Chinese, and Jiang Nian was dozing off while listening. Propping his head up, pretending to look at the textbook, with a pen perched in his right hand to ward off any suspicion of sleeping.

A class lasts forty-five minutes, intermittently sleeping in a silky smooth manner for three to two minutes at a time.

When the homeroom teacher Lao Liu said, "Turn to page xx," Jiang Nian would wake with a start and start turning pages like the rest of the class, only to fall asleep again after.

When the first class ended, the entire class wilted instantly, collapsing onto the desks for a quick nap.

Li Hua glanced at his desk mate Jiang Nian, "I can’t believe it, Brother Nian, you slept through an entire class, why are you still so tired? What were you up to last night?"

"Don’t talk about it, suppressing bad omens." Jiang Nian murmured muffledly, "I’m exhausted, don’t disturb me, if I fall asleep in the next class, I’ll surely get caught."

Ten minutes, which felt like several hours passed by.

As the class bell rang, Jiang Nian slowly got up. Resting his chin on his hand, he only barely opened his eyes to see Zhang Ningzhi, who was sitting in front, turn around.

"Do you want some milk?"

"Hmm?" Jiang Nian perked up instantly.

"Bought it yesterday, can’t find the straw." Zhang Ningzhi whispered, her eyelashes fluttering, "I heard milk relieves fatigue, but I can’t open it myself... do you want it?"

"Sure." Jiang Nian lazily smiled.

Zhi Zhi Baby is really too nice, free milk tastes sweeter.

"Okay." Zhang Ningzhi carefully took a box of milk out of her desk and placed it on his desk, her face blushing, "But there’s no straw."

"Straw’s not a problem, I can just bite a small hole." Jiang Nian said.

Li Hua pretended not to see anything, silently shedding tears in his heart, Jiang Nian, damn... have you been secretly saving the world!
