Qianqian looked up, feeling pretty good. She even humd a couple of tunes, though they were hard to make out.
"Why are you so quiet?"
She turned her head and looked at the annoying guy next to her, "Did you do sothing shady in the team fight just now?"
"No, I tried my best." Jiang Nian moved a little closer, and seeing that Qianqian had no objections, he simply sat shoulder to shoulder with her.
Qianqian's shoulders tingled as if they were electrified. It felt quite nice, a bit comforting.
"Oh."
Her mind was a bit scrambled. She definitely didn't dislike Jiang Nian. She wanted to be a bit distant, hoping he wouldn't take her for granted.
But then she thought about how many girls liked this guy. Since she had made up her mind, she might as well be open about it.
After all, it wasn't like they were in ancient tis or anything.
"Qianqian."
"Hmm?"
"Are you cold?"
"I..." Before she could finish her sentence, she felt her body being hugged from behind, warm and toasty.
The night wind was blowing, and it was indeed a bit chilly.
Are all boys this warm, or is it just with her? Her mind was a jumble of random thoughts.
Jiang Nian also found it odd that Qianqian wasn't yelling at him, but he didn't dare to move erratically, staying still for a mont.
He slightly tilted his head, intending to say a joke to lighten the mood, but he saw that Qianqian's face was excessively red.
She gently bit her lip, like a juicy peach. The mont she let go, it had the unique elasticity of a young girl.
"A kiss?"
"Ah?"
Jiang Nian was never one to hesitate; he lowered his head and touched her lips, not rushing to claim territory.
It started with a gentle touch, sparking emotions, then slowly pressing together, shifting up and down, little by little...
The sumr night was peaceful and beautiful, with only the sound of insects chirping.
The sweet flavor was like slightly sweet strawberry gummies. Soft like a cloud, the whole person felt light and airy.
The vines and grasses tightly embraced one another.
....
The next day.
Jiang Nian drove to pick up Li Hua and the big guy from the internet cafe, and they found a breakfast place together.
Li Hua looked exhausted, only coming to his senses after a couple sips of hot soy milk.
"Chi Shi, my hand is so sore."
"Did you go that hard?"
"Chi Shi!!" Li Hua didn't bother to argue, "First ti playing all night, I'm about to puke."
"Oh, I did an estimate of my scores yesterday."
"How much?" Jiang Nian asked.
"Over six hundred thirty." Li Hua muttered as he bit into his bun, "Just a rough estimate."
"The scores might be a bit higher when they co out."
The big guy didn't have much reaction to this, given that Li Hua scoring over six hundred was almost routine.
"This damn guy got several English questions right, I'm starting to suspect he cheated."
"Heaven rewards those who work hard." Li Hua wasn't worried at all; after all, he only managed to see a few options, gaining at most a few points more.
In this round, it really was heaven rewarding diligence.
The reward for his hard work was having a familiar girl from middle school sit in front of him.
"What about Old Ma, how much did you estimate?"
"560."
Ma Guojun was also busy eating breakfast, "When the scores are out, they'll probably be a bit higher. I'll figure out how to fill in the college forms then."
"Oh~~" Jiang Nian responded, and when he looked up, he saw the two of them staring at him, "What?"
Ma Guojun: "How much did you estimate?"
Li Hua squinted, glancing at Jiang Nian, "What did you do last night? Didn't get a room, did you?"
"Get a room?"
Jiang Nian looked baffled, "If I got a room, would I still get up early to take you guys out for breakfast?"
Li Hua glanced at the ti, the phone showed it was past six. The sun was fully up, and there weren't many people in the breakfast shop.
"True."
"How many points?" the big guy pressed on.
"Not easy to say, seven hundred." Jiang Nian said, "Probably got 650, I'll see for sure when the scores co out."
Actually, it was more than that, but he had a habit of underestimating.
Last night, the two girls also estimated their scores. Qianqian and Jiang Nian had similar estimates, Song Xiyun's estimate was slightly lower.
"Damn!"
"Chi Shi!!" Li Hua imdiately lost interest, "It's all Old Ma's fault, asking while we're having breakfast."
That being said, perhaps because of graduation, they weren't particularly sensitive about the scores.
After all, it was a done deal.
"What's Liu Yang up to?"
The big guy said, "Fell while playing ball last night, it was dark there. Now he's lying at ho."
"What about Lin Dong?"
"Went to karaoke with Yang Qiming and the others, sang until the middle of the night, got dragged away by his dad early in the morning."
"Oh right, the class monitor set off a rabbit firework yesterday. His uncle caught him and lectured him for half an hour."
"That's insane."
After the exams, everyone had their own type of craziness.
After they finished eating, Jiang Nian drove the two of them back ho separately. Before leaving, Li Hua asked one more thing.
"When are you leaving?"
"Going where?"
"Out there. Don't tell you're going to stay in Zhen Nan honestly." Li Hua sat in the passenger seat, pointing like a husky.
"We'll see, not leaving in the next few days."
"Damn, you're so carefree." the big guy said, "If you make it big in the future, rember to stay humble."
"Damn! You guys are really sothing!"
"True, it's good enough to just live decently." Li Hua draped an arm over his shoulder, "Don't live too beastly."
...
After dropping off Li Hua and the others, Jiang Nian went ho. He bought so breakfast on the way and delivered a portion to each side.
Showing that he was considerate.
The art of agile filial piety.
When he delivered the buns to the door next door, Qianqian and the others were already awake.
After last night, Song Xiyun had also woken up. She groggily took a bath and went back to sleep until now.
"Thanks, good morning."
"Morning."
After Jiang Nian spoke, he looked at Qianqian. Her eyes were evasive, feeling regretful about their kiss last night, she had been unable to stop tossing and turning in bed.
"Early? Don't look at ." Qianqian pushed him away, "The emperor will begin dining, you may leave."
Jiang Nian was speechless, and ran over to talk with Xiao Song instead.
"When are you planning to buy tickets?"
"The day after tomorrow, I guess." Song Xiyun said, "Qianqian says she'll be too tired to run around, so she plans to relax for two days at ho."
"Alright."
With Xiao Song, things were always straightforward and pleasant.
He glanced down to see Song Xiyun's headband was crooked, told her to stay still, and adjusted it for her.
"Tell her I'm leaving."
"Where to?" Xiao Song instinctively asked, "We plan to go shopping in the afternoon. Not coming with us?"
"No, got so things to do." Jiang Nian didn't elaborate, "Need to drive soone, quite a hassle."
As if! Who wants to go shopping?
"Alright then."
On the other hand, at Zhenan Middle School.
Jiang Nian drove to the North Gate, just as he entered the school. It was quiet, the first and second years were in class.
Behind the dormitories was a mountain of books.
No exaggeration.
Piles of white books and test papers ford a small mountain, used book buyers hadn't managed to cart them off, so a waterproof cover was thrown over them.
Chen Yunyun and the others had gone ho last night. Often, things don't go as planned.
Parents ask a few questions, and then it's hard to resist the urge to go back ho.
He heard the bell for the first class in the morning, recalling that the Low-score kid had ssaged him on QQ.
Sothing about a gift, but he'd brushed it off.
Connections require give-and-take. He hadn't ti, nor prepared any return gift, so it felt awkward to et up.
When he called, Huang Fang hadn't started packing yet.
Jiang Nian decided to head up to the boys' dormitory, pushed the door open and went inside. Lin Dong's bed was already empty.
Gathered in a rush, old clothes scattered on the floor.
Zeng You groggily sat up, supported himself on one side, and explained, "Lin Dong's dad ca and took everything."
"Where's everyone else in the dorm?"
"All left, packed last night." Zeng You said, "Caught the early bus ho."
"When are you leaving?"
"Don't know, maybe afternoon." Zeng You lay back down, "Whenever I wake up, I'll leave."
Jiang Nian ca back downstairs, thinking he had nowhere to go, so he headed to the grade three building. The area was already cleaned.
The place was empty and silent. However, in just over a month and a half, new seniors would move in.
The office was still the sa, and he wandered around for a bit.
"Jiang Nian?" Qi Xue called to him, stepping out from the office, "Why are you still here?"
