Yang Qiming turned his head, filled with worry and asked.
"Cailang, if you beco rich in the future and I’m just an office worker, would you make call you Mr. Huang?"
"Huh? Of course not." Huang Caicai scratched his neck, "I probably won’t be that rich, as long as I don’t have to farm."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuting looked up at Huang Caicai.
"Have you fard before?"
"Yes, I help harvest rice every year. Back in middle school, we even had a nine-day leave for busy farming season."
Zhou Yuting nodded thoughtfully, "I’ve only seen others harvest rice, but I’ve never done it myself."
"Harvesting rice is hard work," Huang Caicai said awkwardly, "There are leeches in the fields; it’s easy to get cut."
"Plus, so fields have mud pits. Once you step in, you can’t get out, just watch your leg slowly sinking."
"Is it that dangerous?" Zhou Yuting was stunned.
Yang Qiming was amazed that his good buddy was chatting with a pretty girl like Zhou Yuting with just his farming skills.
He was shocked, and couldn’t help but feel a bit jealous.
Damn!
You’re not even Mr. Huang yet, and you’re already doing so well? I hope my buddy does well, but not too well.
"Ahem, actually I can farm too." Yang Qiming interjected, "I’m especially good at rice transplanting."
Zhou Yuting turned around, looking up and down at the chubby Yang Qiming.
"Really?"
"Of course."
"How?" Zhou Yuting looked at him, pressing further, "Then tell , what’s the first step in rice transplanting?"
Yang Qiming scratched his head, suddenly inspired.
"Squat down."
Sun Zhicheng overheard the conversation and couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
"Are you here to haul rocks?"
Upon hearing this, the people around burst into laughter imdiately. Even other classmates turned to join in the fun.
"Get lost!" Yang Qiming was angry.
He had never gotten along with Sun Zhicheng, and now their enmity deepened again. It had stirred up Yang Qiming’s urge for revenge.
The demon within.... secretly vowed, this grudge must be avenged.
Tao Ran was handing out exam papers, watching the commotion for a while. When he reached the back row, he glanced curiously at the sixth group.
"Where’s Jiang Nian?"
Zhang Ningzhi replied crisply, "He went to listen to a psychology lecture."
"Oh, a psychology lecture." Tao Ran handed out the answer sheets, secretly wondering if the psychological counseling teacher would understand him?
If he uses the psychology counseling as a cover to spread the essence of furry culture, it doesn’t seem offensive.
After all, that’s the psychology teacher’s job.
I’ll check it out another day.
.....
Second floor of Building D.
Psychological counseling eting room, a group of students brought their howork. They sward in and then scattered here and there.
"What exam paper did you bring?" Ji Jiayu asked curiously.
"Where’s your husband?" Jiang Nian started as usual, "Can you sit with soone else, I’m a bit scared."
No matter how great your skills, there’s still fear of the crazy.
"I haven’t seen him, and he’s found a new fla," Ji Jiayu said nonchalantly, "n are just unreliable."
Jiang Nian breathed a sigh of relief and comnted.
"Too bad, that just halves your charm."
Ji Jiayu was taken aback, then gritted her teeth.
"Is that idiot Lin Dong saying that? I’ve never seen such an idiot, I’ll ss with him hard soday."
"Better pay attention in class." Jiang Nian did not respond, "You guys are really devoted, so carefree about it."
"You’ve never been in a relationship?" Ji Jiayu asked curiously.
"I have, but I can’t rember how many." Jiang Nian said, "My romantic history is several tis longer than yours."
"You’re bluffing." She obviously didn’t believe it.
On stage, Lan Lan had already started the lecture, with a the on the ntality of "early love" among senior students and self-regulation.
Jiang Nian had no such mindset, so he didn’t need to listen.
"Alright, stop probing ."
He turned to Ji Jiayu, seriously asked.
"Stop ssing with , let’s not talk about other things. Love can overco all, but can your grades keep up with my pace?"
Ji Jiayu: "...."
If soone else had said that, she might have tried to work hard for a while to touch and move the guy.
After all, most guys are generally soft-hearted.
A girl’s pursuit of a guy is only separated by a thin veil.
But..... Jiang Nian is different; he’s not easily swayed by soft or hard tactics. His grades are perverse, always climbing.
She bit her lower lip, "I’ll try."
"Can you score over 600?" Jiang Nian said rcilessly, "Even 600 is a stray dog, it’s about enough."
"Still trying? Are you a low-score dog?"
Ji Jiayu: "...."
She was stunned into silence by Jiang Nian’s series of attacks; even a girl tirelessly pursuing soone can’t stand this.
What’s more, she isn’t one.
Only now did Ji Jiayu confirm that Jiang Nian isn’t soone she could handle, a heart as hard as iron.
From the beginning to the end, they were never on the sa level.
Jiang Nian’s teasing of her always ca from a superior position, occasionally responding, effortlessly controlling her.
"Forget it, I won’t try anymore." Ji Jiayu shook her head.
After the psychology lecture ended.
Jiang Nian grabbed his exam papers and left without calling Ji Jiayu. But as he turned around, she followed him herself.
Little Turtle looked calm, but her brows were still furrowed.
It seed Jiang Nian’s words hadn’t affected her, the old hero remained calm, but she was sowhat impacted.
After going downstairs, in the night breeze.
Ji Jiayu walked half a step behind him and suddenly spoke up.
"I’ve realized..."
Jiang Nian stopped, turned to look at her. This was sowhat of a repaynt for the favor she did him last ti.
"Realized what?"
"People find it hard to step out of their own circles, what seems like an independent love is really... a love with oneself."
Ji Jiayu lifted her head, gazing at Jiang Nian deeply.
"No matter who you find, it always ends up being soone like yourself. Or worse, wasting ti."
"Oh." Jiang Nian nodded, turned and left, "Going on about love all day, once you’re at work like a dog, you’ll be honest."
In the system-simulated life, he was already numb to jumping classes.
Little Turtle’s realization, in Jiang Nian’s eyes, was simply: The youth grasp sorrow unknowingly, yet exclaim how pleasant the cool autumn is.
....
Evening self-study session.
After returning to the classroom, Jiang Nian put away the just-distributed exam papers. He also glanced at Zhang Ningzhi, noticing her good mood.
"Zhizhi, do you have anything to eat?"
"I have mini bread and cookies." Zhang Ningzhi took out snacks from her bag, "Oh, there’s also a pack of dried strawberries."
"Just give the bread." Jiang Nian took the bread, took a bite, then sneaked a couple more glances at her.
Weird, why is she in such a good mood today?
"Did you find so money?"
"No, I didn’t." Zhang Ningzhi glared at him, buried herself in howork, "I made plans with Beibei for the weekend."
"Oh, that’s a sha then."
"A sha about what?" Zhang Ningzhi seed intrigued, turned to look at him, "Are you going out on the weekend too?"
"I an...." Jiang Nian took a bite of the bread, mumbling, "missing a chance to study with ."
"Hmph! Not interested!" Zhang Ningzhi turned her face away.
She buried herself writing howork, initially in a good mood. Jiang Nian’s few words stirred her up, the more she thought about it, the more irritated she beca.
Liar!!!
Jiang Nian could tell that Zhang Ningzhi was getting a taste for it. Simply put, she was getting addicted to dating.
eting up every day, isn’t that what young couples do?
How can that be?
He thought for a mont, then whispered to Zhang Ningzhi.
"It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s just... dates might cause a drop in scores. You know, Lao Liu is very status-conscious."
"What if my... or your scores drop, wouldn’t Lao Liu transfer you to another group?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ningzhi’s eyes widened, blinking continuously, almost dumbstruck by what he said.
"...Switch groups?"
"Yes, he’s so focused on ." Jiang Nian thought to himself, sorry Lao Liu, I’ll score higher another day to make up for it.
"No, no!!" Zhang Ningzhi shook her head like a rattle, whispered, "I don’t want to switch groups."
"I don’t want that either." Jiang Nian nodded.
"Oh, so you’re studying hard lately because of that?" Zhang Ningzhi looked at him, eyes a bit naive. "Is it?"
Jiang Nian was stunned for a bit, "Uh... yes"
