Chapter 60: Chapter 60: High School Surrounded by Wolves

Upon hearing the voice, everyone fell silent.

Chen Yunyun, Wang Yuhe, and Sun Zhicheng looked at Lin Dong with astonishment, as did the rest of the class, including Jiang Nian, who turned their eyes towards the source of the sound.

Realizing he had misspoken, Lin Dong awkwardly tried to play it off.

"Who can handle 3000 meters?"

As soon as he said this, the atmosphere relaxed.

Lin Dong retreated hastily, not wanting to clash with Jiang Nian.

Not because he was afraid, but because he didn’t want Jiang Nian to lose face. After all, representing the class in a 3000-meter run was a prideful thing, vital for class unity.

Okay, okay, you chose a tough path.

Instead of harping on class unity, don’t forget you’re a member of the Communist Youth League, and you’ll be doing double portions of Youth League studies in the future.

Most people were just there for the fun, as high school life is usually dull, giving everyone an attitude of amused spectatorship.

Fight, fight! Love to see a bloody aftermath!

Seeing nothing entertaining, they stopped paying attention.

Jiang Nian didn’t pay much heed to Lin Dong; the boarding area in North District was uncharted territory for him, and since moving up a class, he hadn’t interacted much with the boarders.

He only knew that Lin Dong was the math class representative and always had people around him. He had a slightly superior way of speaking, as if he swallowed a Chen Beixuan.

From afar, Jiang Nian glanced at Lin Dong. Without trying to lower his voice, he turned to Liu Yang, the sports committee member, and said,

"Just sign up for the dumb 3000 meters, forget the rest, let others have a chance."

Upon hearing this, the running team burst into laughter.

Lin Dong felt even more awkward, but not wanting to lose face, he stubbornly looked back.

He turned his head only to find Jiang Nian staring at him, seemingly expecting him to say something.

Forget it, forget it, the run’s about to start, let him go this time. But remember, Jiang Nian, I’m your classmate, not your horse!

"Come on, add the long jump, not enough people have signed up," Liu Yang changed the topic. "Most get eliminated in the preliminaries; you need to fill the spots to have a chance at the finals."

Jiang Nian chose the 3000-meter event, which thrilled him.

He was fretting about convincing someone to run the 3000 meters. It’s an event no one wants to run—exhausting and without charm, and quitting halfway is just embarrassing.

Every year someone starts too fast and runs out of energy after two or three laps, either slacking off midway or vomiting at the finish line.

Liu Yang didn’t want to run it himself; it was pure masochism.

Jiang Nian didn’t mind; if he’s going to put on a show, he might as well go all the way.

A sharp whistle sounded, signaling the start of the running drills.

The third class was English.

Qianbao hurriedly entered the classroom with her lesson plan, almost collapsing by the podium after a few steps.

"What’s that smell in your class?!"

The boys chimed in, "Manly scent!"

"Open the windows, open the windows!" Qianbao covered her nose, "Going to work is like going into monastic solitude; I never thought I’d experience occupational hazards like this one day."

With a clatter, all the classroom windows were opened.

Jiang Nian, propping his head up, heard Qianbao’s voice and instinctively yawned. He hadn’t finished before being spotted by Qianbao on the podium, who called him out.

"Come up and explain the cloze test."

"What?" Jiang Nian was taken aback, slowly got up, and said, "Teacher, Li Hua did it too, call on him."

Desk mate Li Hua slowly shot a questioning look, annoyed his friend couldn’t just let him be for a second, right?

Qianbao rolled her eyes at him, "You talk too much, come up!"

The entire class, a full forty-five minutes, Jiang Nian spoke for twenty-five, Qianbao laughingly summarized for five, and focused on essay writing for ten minutes.

After class, she conveniently took Jiang Nian to the office.

The sunlit corridor had déjà vu.

The last time he was taken to the office was due to a small conflict with Yu Tongjie. This time, it was because of his lesson; Qianbao said she’d get him some snacks.

"Teacher, I don’t like snacks anymore at this age."

At these words, Qianbao, walking ahead, turned her head in surprise.

"Really? I still like them at my age."

You’re a mom, really? Wow, such an adorable expression; I’m worried for my brother-in-law, high school... wolves everywhere!

"No worries, maybe you’re... not an adult yet," Jiang Nian shamelessly said the last four words.

As expected, Qianbao reacted strongly, covering her mouth and chuckling.

"Oh, stop it. I’m not that young anymore; I’m a mom already."

Jiang Nian suspected Qianbao took him aside just to get some flattery, to play once as a cyber princess.

Or for a good meaning, like Nian Nian forever eighteen.

Damn it, I’m really eighteen, am I just a cyber offering to you?

Passing by the science office next to the English office, Jiang Nian glanced in. He noticed the biology teacher Zhong Qing looking up, giving him a glance.

Weird, there was a kind of... how to arrange you look in her eyes.

In the office, there were only ten minutes during the break.

Qianbao was straightforward, pulled out a few bags of snacks from the drawer, and pushed them towards Jiang Nian. Seeing he wasn’t moved, she continued watching the half-opened drawer.

Her expression soured immediately, defending the drawer with determination.

"Mine!"

Jiang Nian was speechless; how did this silly woman become a teacher? Did she sing a happy kid song to the judges at the teacher qualification interview?

"Teacher, I don’t like snacks, just curious why you like Yogurt Jelly Snacks?"

"Huh? You saw wrong, there’s no such thing." Qianbao quickly took out a few hush-hush packets and closed the drawer, whispering, "Don’t spread this outside!"

Jiang Nian: "..."

"By the way, did you sign up for the sports event?" Qianbao casually changed the topic, continuing to bribe, "How about I cheer for you, teach?"

"For the 3000 meters," he replied.

Ring ring ring, the bell for the fourth class rang.

Qianbao’s joy was visible all over her face, "Go to class. Perform well."

"Alright." Jiang Nian got up, picked a few easy-to-carry snacks from the table, and left. He didn’t forget to make a pinky swear, "I really don’t like snacks; it’s not that I want to take them all, okay."

She gave too much; taking it all seemed thoughtless, but not taking it seemed a loss.

An invincible man.

After Jiang Nian left, Qianbao leaned alone in the English office, opened a pack of Yogurt Jelly Snacks. Humming while packing to leave, something suddenly crossed her mind.

"What did Jiang Nian say he signed up for?...forget it, I’ll ask another day."

Returning to the classroom, his snacks were split by Li Hua, Ma Guojun, and Yao Beibei; he hadn’t taken much, only five items in total.

Looking up, he found Zhang Ningzhi unreactive, lying on the desk, doing homework.

You really have a lot of homework, Zhi Zhi baby.

Since the teacher hadn’t come yet, he tapped Zhang Ningzhi’s back lightly and offered the snacks.

Zhang Ningzhi just turned her head, glancing at the snacks, shook her head swiftly, and turned back.

Huh? So reserved?
