In the center of the crowd, a focal point.
"Can’t squeeze it anymore."
Jiang Ning pulled back his hand, a faint smile on his face.
The spectators among the students could all tell he still had strength left, yet he chose to give up.
The more astute among them quickly grasped the deeper aning, and their expressions began to change.
Their gazes at Jiang Ning carried a certain admiration, as such an action was sothing they never considered.
Observers see clearly, while those involved are confused. Chai Wei, seeing Jiang Ning didn’t finish all ten, was overjoyed and blurted out:
"Hahaha, I said you couldn’t finish it, couldn’t, right?"
His words rang out around them, mixed with a certain glee, as if a petty person finding success.
Guo Kunnan shook his head, saying in a low voice: "If I were Brother Ning, I wouldn’t spare him any face at all."
Dan Kaiquan agreed: "With my temper, I’d do 20 squeezes, making him jump twice."
Even they could see Jiang Ning’s intention, yet this Chai Wei still stubbornly refused to concede.
Jiang Ning just smiled without saying a word.
After the commotion, the crowd dispersed, and the nearby area returned to calm.
Chai Wei’s face still carried so joy, though it appeared slightly stiff.
He vaguely understood but was unwilling to think more deeply, continually reminding himself that Jiang Ning lost and he was right.
He, Chai Wei, never made mistakes!
Earlier, Jiang Yanan, who had been watching, conversed with soone after returning: "Dong Qingfeng, did you see it earlier?"
Her fair skin turned crimson: "He was just too..."
For a mont, Jiang Yanan didn’t know how to describe Jiang Ning.
Saying he was handso seed far from enough.
Beside her, Shen Qing’e pretended to write problems, but 99% of her mind lingered on Jiang Yanan’s words.
She had feigned indifference earlier, to project her uniqueness and ladylike poise, conveying to others that she didn’t care about Jiang Ning, which was why she didn’t go watch the fuss.
Since there were many people around Jiang Ning earlier, all squeezed together, she naturally wasn’t clear about what happened exactly.
Dong Qingfeng genuinely agreed: "He was indeed graceful!"
If it were him facing Chai Wei’s provocation, and if he could, he would have finished all ten to fiercely damage Chai Wei’s face.
Yet Jiang Ning could hold back, and soone as proud as Dong Qingfeng couldn’t help but feel lesser.
Jiang Yanan described: "The first nine proved his strength, and the last one demonstrated his self-restraint."
In her past experiences, she had never encountered a boy with such capability who could also exercise restraint like Jiang Ning.
This differs from defeating an opponent with absolute strength; it is a more advanced and complex moral refinent, or perhaps—a gentleness.
Jiang Yanan’s perception of Jiang Ning underwent a transformative change, suddenly surpassing her fondness for Dong Qingfeng.
Seeing Jiang Yanan’s excited appearance, Shen Qing’e felt a pang of curiosity, only witnessing such excitent when Jiang Yanan chased Korean pop stars, which made Shen Qing’e wonder, what had Jiang Ning done to have such a powerful impact?
Shen Qing’e finally couldn’t help but utter: "Hmm?"
Jiang Yanan vividly described the scene earlier, with words not hiding her admiration.
Shen Qing’e listened quietly, observing Jiang Yanan’s expression, and blurted out:
"No big deal, wasn’t he always like that?"
This ti it was Jiang Yanan who was surprised: "Hmm? How did you know?"
...
Next day, during the morning self-study, the horoom teacher Shan Qingrong held a class eting.
He inford everyone that after returning from the October 1st holiday, the school cafeteria would restart the small dining table plan to prevent food waste, and he asked the class monitor Xin Youling to tally up which students were willing to participate.
After hearing this, Chai Wei privately asked Bai Yuxia, "Will you join the small dining table then? If you join, maybe we can be at the sa table."
Previously he was a student of Class 6 and wasn’t aware of Class 8’s small dining table arrangent.
Bai Yuxia sat properly, her tone calm: "We’ll see."
Chai Wei chuckled dryly; unsure if it was an illusion, starting from last night’s self-study, Bai Yuxia’s attitude towards him grew colder.
Chai Wei didn’t want to overthink it; he only hoped that once the small dining table plan started, being at the sa table with Bai Yuxia would allow him to have the advantage of proximity, take care of her more, and let her realize the benefits of having a boyfriend.
On this, Chai Wei was quite confident. Don’t all girls like warm guys?
Besides talking about school matters, Shan Qingrong also ntioned Yuzhou’s local enterprise, the Changqing Liquid Company’s situation, to inspire the students.
"Our Changqing Liquid Company is preparing to hold a new product launch; since you’re always online, you should have heard about the eye drops."
Shan Qingrong chuckled as he walked to the edge of the podium, shirt tucked into trousers, looking like an adult.
His words instantly sparked discussions in the classroom.
With the increasing rate of myopia nowadays, almost a third of students in Experintal Class 1 were nearsighted.
Chen Qian adjusted his glasses; day after day of diligent study brought him not only vast knowledge but also severe nearsightedness unobtainable by ordinary people.
"Given the size of today’s Changqing Liquid Company, eyes worldwide will be on our Yuzhou City," Shan Qingrong said with strong pride.
Growing up in Yuzhou City, when introducing this place, he sotis didn’t know how to begin. Could he just say, ’Our Yuzhou is the birthplace of crayfish?’
Now it’s different. With a ntion of Changqing Liquid, everyone nationwide knows it.
Changqing Liquid is not just a business; it’s a flag that has transford the spirit of Yuzhou people.
Shan Qingrong spoke about how "the location for Yuzhou’s airport has been determined, and now all the national experts are here in Yuzhou to help push it to completion, striving for its early launch!"
