"Sleep? Slept." Jiang Ning said, he indeed slept just now.
"You slept so long last night and still sleeping in the morning, look how tired you are!" Xue Yuantong teased, rubbing her warm little hands on his face.
She noticed a change in the calmness in Jiang Ning’s eyes.
...
The neighbor Bi Yue was dressed quite formally, she started her car.
Today, Bi Yue was preparing to go to the Evergreen Liquid Headquarters for an interview.
Zhang Ruyun glanced at her brand new BMW car.
His gaze was caught by Bi Yue, and rembering the annoying Butcher Zhang, Bi Yue chuckled frivolously:
"This BMW of mine is over 600,000."
Zhang Ruyun calculated that number in his mind, feeling indifferent. After all, his future dream was to revitalize his hotown and build skyscrapers; how could a re BMW sway his heart?
Bi Yue didn’t see the shocked look in Zhang Ruyun’s eyes, feeling displeased, she wanted to say more, but then Zhang Ruyun said:
"This car of yours might not make it up the river dam."
Bi Yue sneered: "Do you know how much horsepower my car has?"
Zhang Ruyun: "Wait and see."
Bi Yue drove away, exhaust puffing out, then she got stuck on the slope of the river dam.
...
Xue Yuantong and Jiang Ning basked in the sun for a while, then went back inside to play gas.
It was mainly Xue Yuantong playing, her ga friend Shang Caiwei called her to play lol ranked.
Their ranks soared, with Xue Yuantong’s support, Shang Caiwei had beco a King,
They won several gas, and the next ga was still at the usual King level.
By rights, Xue Yuantong could have easily dominated, it should have been a light and fun match.
But regretfully, one of their teammates went AFK, so they had to fully concentrate.
Jiang Ning leaned against the sofa, holding a tablet, spending in-ga Gold Coins for her.
Xue Yuantong liked saving up in gas, so Jiang Ning helped her draw cards.
For instance, in Landlord, Xue Yuantong saved up a lot of Joy Beans, and Jiang Ning frequently visited high-level tables.
In the past, he often spent all the hard-earned stuff Xue Yuantong had saved, for which he felt a tinge of guilt.
Later, Xue Yuantong seriously told him, ’It’s okay, you can spend as you like, if you run out, I’ll earn more.’
Jiang Ning then let loose, as these virtual things didn’t matter to Xue Yuantong at all.
Xue Yuantong was not in a good position this ga, the opponents had two masters who coordinated well, Shang Caiwei had been killed three tis.
The ga was gradually slipping, and their teammates were in despair, frequently initiating surrender.
Xue Yuantong and Shang Caiwei voted no; they never gave up.
The teammates even slacked off, communicating with the opponents, saying they didn’t want to surrender.
At this ti, the hero Ryze, who just got a double kill from the opponents, sent over a soul-searching question:
"I’m really puzzled!"
"You can’t possibly win this ga, why are you still refusing to surrender?"
"Isn’t continuing just a waste of ti?"
Our teammates: "I can’t understand them either."
Xue Yuantong took the chance to buy equipnt at ho, under the id[Ningning Stealing], and replied: "Because I’ve won many unwinnable gas before."
As soon as she said this, it imdiately drew a chorus of mockery, "Are you joking, you really think you can win?"
Shang Caiwei’s hero Lu Xian was killed once more, she wouldn’t let Xue Yuantong fight alone, and she replied:
"It’s simple, because my mom only lets play three gas, then I have to do howork, surrendering counts as one."
Hero Ryze: "...Elentary schooler."
Xue Yuantong stubbornly fard, silently developing, waiting for the mont to turn the tables.
anwhile, Jiang Ning kept playing Landlord.
After several high-level rounds, he successfully squandered all the Joy Beans Tongtong had saved up, he didn’t cheat, played freely, but when the beans were not enough, he played low-level gas, losing until he could no longer play.
Then, he opened his own account, lost all his safe-guard Joy Beans, with just a few beans short to start a ga.
Jiang Ning opened WeChat, planning to ask soone to send so.
A red dot appeared on his Monts, so he casually clicked in, Shen Qing’e had made a post.
A supermarket group photo, Shen Qing’e, Jiang Yanan, and Yu Wen, in the photo, Shen Qing’e was slender, pretty, exuding the freshness of youth.
Jiang Ning suddenly rembered that in middle school, he wanted to take a proper photo with Shen Qing’e, but was always refused.
He pondered for a mont, his expression turning playful, suddenly he clicked on Shen Qing’e’s avatar and sent a ssage:
"Are you there?"
...
anwhile.
In the urban area, at the Lanma Shopping Mall, the fourth level is a food court with hotpot, BBQ, seafood, and various eateries gathered together.
In a noodle shop, by the window, sat three young girls.
Jiang Yanan scooped up a quail egg with a spoon.
Yu Wen used chopsticks to pick up the slippery quail egg from her bowl, while Shen Qing’e leaned back a little, afraid that the egg might slip and spill the soup.
Jiang Yanan was not worried at all; with her understanding of Yu Wen, if the class monitor isn’t around, Wenwen performs steadily and hardly embarrasses herself.
Sure enough, Yu Wen successfully ate the quail egg.
She took a sip of milk tea and complained, "Where’s Qiqi? Didn’t she say she’d join us for noodles?"
Jiang Yanan said, "She’s having hotpot with her boyfriend."
In the past, when Lu Qiqi didn’t have a boyfriend, she often joined them for noodles. Unfortunately, since getting a boyfriend, Lu Qiqi doesn’t fancy these small eateries; she only eats hotpot, BBQ, western food, and other expensive als.
Lu Qiqi even claid, if dating can’t improve her quality of life, then what’s the point of dating?
Jiang Yanan felt she was wrong, but was reluctant to argue.
"School starts tomorrow. What do you think our class will be like?" Jiang Yanan anticipated.
Yu Wen: "No matter who cos, the class monitor is always mine."
Shen Qing’e: "So students studying humanities will leave, and so from the split-up underperforming classes will join us. That’s probably it."
Yu Wen, hearing this, said unhappily: "What if a bunch of underachievers join and lower our Class 8’s average score?"
Shen Qing’e: "That’s unlikely, Shan Qingrong is quite capable."
Right after saying that, she thought it didn’t quite add up. If Shan Qingrong was that competent, why did Wu Xiaoqi and Duan Shigang end up in their Class 8?
Jiang Yanan said, "I hope there are so transfer students. Our Yu Zhou Fourth Middle School has improved a lot this year, over a thousand students enrolled in the first year!"
Yu Wen, sounding mysterious, said: "I went to school the day before yesterday, the front gate has changed."
Jiang Yanan: "What changed?"
Yu Wen replied, "You’ll see when school starts."
While chatting, Shen Qing’e’s phone vibrated.
If she were eating at her uncle’s place, she’d rarely use her phone at the table, as it was impolite.
Since she was with her girlfriends, it didn’t matter. She looked at the lit screen; soone sent her a WeChat ssage.
Upon seeing the avatar of the ssage sender, Shen Qing’e’s heart skipped a beat.
’It’s Jiang Ning.’
’Why is he suddenly reaching out to ?’
’Could it be...’
Shen Qing’e’s mind was in a whirl, she never gave up waiting for him.
She had anticipated this mont for so long that when it actually happened, she found herself at a loss.
She took a deep breath, "Yes, do you need sothing?"
After replying, she reviewed her recently posted status. In the photo, with so added beauty filters, she looked cute and charming, perfectly complented by Yu Wen and Jiang Yanan.
Is the reason Jiang Ning reached out because she looks prettier now?
She was aloof for a mont but then rembered Jiang Ning’s current transcendent aura and his eyes that seed to have witnessed the vicissitudes of life.
In front of him, Shen Qing’e felt a sense of inferiority.
Jiang Ning: "I need your help with sothing."
Shen Qing’e took another deep breath, recalling Jiang Ning from her three years in middle school, the Jiang Ning who bought her breakfast, tutored her, and brought her an umbrella in the rain...
All the past events felt like they were just yesterday.
The Jiang Ning of that ti, even when in trouble, never sought her help, probably due to the pride of youth.
Responding to Jiang Ning’s words, Shen Qing’e typed: "You’ve changed, huh."
Jiang Ning: "Yeah."
Shen Qing’e smiled and firmly said: "You can tell , I’m willing to help you."
Jiang Ning typed: "Shen Qing’e."
Addressing her by her full na instantly made the atmosphere serious, and Shen Qing’e’s breathing quickened.
The next second.
Jiang Ning: "In the Joyful Landlord WeChat zone, send so Joy Beans, thanks."
Shen Qing’e inwardly: ’?’
