Chapter 773: Chapter 463: Special Associations
Summer heat made greasy food unappealing, but the rib soup before her was different, with the sweet corn and Hu Qi Mountain’s special Spiritual Tomatoes.
The soup was extremely fresh and sweet; the fragrant aroma lingered at Xue Chuchu’s nose, making her pretty little nose quiver.
Xue Yuantong finally experienced the joy that came from teasing Chuchu.
Smelling the aroma, with ripples moving in her clear eyes, Chuchu’s lips, which were originally open, gradually closed and she pouted slightly, a rare sight.
Xue Yuantong’s eyes curved in mirth, her face lighting up with a mischievous smile.
"Hahaha, Chuchu, isn’t it fragrant?"
"It smells good, right!"
Xue Yuantong couldn’t contain her delight.
Jiang Ning lightly coughed nearby, feeling that considering Chuchu’s personality, she would probably find it difficult to accept this kind of thing.
However, the next moment.
Chuchu tilted her head back, revealing her fair and delicate neck, and suddenly opened her mouth, taking a bite of the soup with a spoon.
Amidst Xue Yuantong’s astonishment, she sipped the soup.
Perhaps because she was too hasty, a crimson stream of soup traced down her slightly upturned lips, drawing an enticing curve.
Chuchu timely brought her hand up to cover it.
After drinking the soup, she lightly sat back down on the stool, looking unflustered as if nothing had just happened.
Only her ears, turning a flushed white, betrayed her, revealing her inner emotions.
...
The afternoon of July 18th.
Blazing heat.
The cool shade at the door.
"Chuchu, Chuchu, let me teach you how to play a game!" Xue Yuantong volunteered eagerly.
Having played games herself, Xue Yuantong’s interest shifted to getting others to play games.
Especially someone like Chuchu, a diligent girl, she wanted to see her fall from grace.
Chuchu was somewhat tempted. Last time Tongtong taught her to play Monument Valley, and she beat it in one go. If games were of that quality, she would be keen to play.
Xue Yuantong opened a challenging game "2048."
Chuchu played the game, Jiang Ning sat idly on a small chair, while Xue Yuantong sneaked glances at him.
Not until Jiang Ning caught her did she casually avert her gaze.
Xue Yuantong checked her phone, Class 8’s group chat, where Yu Wen, to show gratitude for the class president’s care during the last trip to Taishan, decided to treat him to a meal.
And they discussed in the group which restaurant in the urban area was good.
Lu Qiqi, eager to show her knowledge, picked a restaurant with an average cost of over 200.
Afterward, Yu Wen stopped popping up in the group chat.
Shen Qing’e smoothed things over, and the atmosphere finally improved.
Jiang Yanan asked in the group, "Can I eat ice cream if my stomach’s upset?"
Right away, Dong Qingfeng stepped in to show care, "Yanan, what’s wrong? Did you catch a cold last night? It’s so hot, remember to not set the AC too low. A setting of 26° is the best temperature for girls. If you do feel cold, make sure to take care of it right away, or it might lead to more serious problems..."
He posted a long message and ended with, "As for ice cream, it’s too cold, don’t eat it."
After he finished posting, Guo Kunnan was left in shock; Qingfeng’s manner was exactly what he despised the most!
A shameless display!
Jiang Yanan: "But I still want to eat ice cream, what should I do?"
As soon as Dong Qingfeng saw this, he prepared to admonish her, telling her that ice cream was too cold and so on.
Suddenly, the clever Chen Siyu chimed in, "Since you can’t eat cold ice cream, why not eat it at room temperature?"
Bai Yuxia replied expressionlessly, "There’s no room temperature ice cream."
The classmates in the group were astonished; the chat fell into a brief silence.
Yang Sheng: "What’s everyone waiting for, laugh!"
"If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten to laugh, hahaha."
"Hahahahaha... *hic*!"
Looking at the messages in the group chat, Xue Yuantong couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
...
"Jiang Ning, we’re out of snacks at home."
"Buy some."
"Okay, let’s buy!" Xue Yuantong was exuberant.
After giving a response, Jiang Ning remained seated without moving.
"Why aren’t you going?"
"You’re the one who wants snacks, what does it have to do with me?" Jiang Ning retorted as if it were a matter of course.
Xue Yuantong said resentfully, "The snacks I buy, you’re not allowed to eat!"
"You buy the snacks first, then we’ll talk," Jiang Ning was undaunted.
"Chuchu, let’s go!" Xue Yuantong called another ’driver.’
Jiang Ning said, "Chuchu, didn’t you say last time that you wanted to learn some skills on my computer to prepare for future computer exams?"
"I’ve downloaded the software already; let’s start now."
Caught in a dilemma, Chuchu struggled to decide.
Xue Yuantong was furious, and she swore to learn how to ride an e-bike and make Jiang Ning regret it.
Imagining the future scene where he watched her ride an e-bike with such élan, not even sparing him a glance, filled Xue Yuantong with a sense of sweet revenge.
However, ten minutes later, Xue Yuantong still ended up on the back seat of Jiang Ning’s mountain bike.
"ChuChu, you stay home and watch the door. Off we go!"
She waved her hand, riding off on the mountain bike, heading to the urban area.
At 4 p.m., the sun was scorching, the weather searing hot, but Xue Yuantong didn’t mind; all she felt was the joy of the breeze.
The river dam had few pedestrians at this time, as most people were staying home with air conditioning or fans.
However, there were exceptions; two e-bikes and a motorcycle carrying a total of five teenagers, around thirteen or fourteen, were heading east, shouting about going down to the river to bathe.
After they passed each other, Xue Yuantong mentioned to Jiang Ning, "They seem like they’re planning to swim in the river."
Just last night, Aunt Zhang next door mentioned that someone drowned at the river dam; still, there were people daring enough to go swimming.
Jiang Ning replied, "Seems like it."
His Divine Sense allowed him to observe a wider area and to hear more information.
Even if the others drowned, Jiang Ning was indifferent; he just hoped they would die farther away, so that their deaths wouldn’t dampen Xue Yuantong’s enthusiasm for future fishing trips by the river.
