CHAPTER 733: CHAPTER 570: UNFAIR QI XUE (PART 2)

"No way."

"Alright, then help me write down my exam number." Jiang Nian backed off and made a simpler request.

"Hmph, you’re just lazy." Zhang Ningzhi saw right through him, angrily got up, and reluctantly went to copy the exam number.

She hadn’t really memorized her own exam number either.

Just before the bell rang, Li Qingrong came into the classroom at the last minute. Seeing the thermal bag in the drawer, she couldn’t help but glance at Jiang Nian.

"Thanks."

Jiang Nian waved his hand, "You’re welcome."

Zhang Ningzhi heard the noise, turned to look at the class monitor. Her eyes fell on the soy milk, and she pursed her lips.

It seems like he brings it for everyone.

Jiang Nian didn’t know that, in Zhizhi’s mind, he had already been labeled as a delivery person and it was noted down.

Li Qingrong lowered her eyes, took a bag of nut snacks out of her bag.

"For you."

"Thanks, haha." Jiang Nian accepted it without guilt, labor exchanged for food, "I actually love these."

After he turned around, he noticed someone staring at him.

He looked, and it was Zhang Ningzhi gazing at him.

Jiang Nian: "???"

"How come I didn’t know you love nuts?" Zhang Ningzhi pointed at him, "You lying Pinocchio!"

Jiang Nian looked indifferent, Pinocchio’s nose grows long... wait. That’s just made up by people.

Who knows where fairy tale authors get their ideas from?

...

The first exam was Chinese.

Zeng You hurried into the exam room, looked left and right, realized he forgot to copy his exam number, then left the room.

Last night, he read novels until four-thirty, too tired.

So much so that when the proctor came, they found a student asleep against the wall in the empty hallway.

"What’s up, student?"

Zeng You suddenly opened his eyes, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Copying my exam number."

After the test started, he stared at the dense modern reading passages. He forgot a line as soon as he read it, couldn’t go on halfway through.

He suddenly looked down, only to realize he was in the exam room.

"Damn!"

On the other side, Jiang Nian was being quite honest in the exam room. Zhang Ningzhi was diagonally in front of him, bowing over the test paper.

The proctor teacher seemed unfamiliar.

The whole exam room only had thirty people, spaced far apart. Luckily, there was a familiar face from Class Three.

He looked at Wang Yuhe, who was counting on her fingers.

Like throwing dice.

Probably stuck on a question she couldn’t solve, she found it hard to choose between two options, so she used her method.

The proctor noticed this and walked over.

"Open your hand."

Wang Yuhe frowned, opened her palm, then felt wronged, glaring at the proctor.

"Can’t I use divination for the exam?"

Teacher: "...."

Jiang Nian laughed out loud, what a silly goose.

Wang Yuhe also noticed Jiang Nian, didn’t mind his laughter. She drew a little person and stepped on it with her finger.

Thinking, if only this little person were Jiang Nian.

But if that were true, she’d be a giant to Jiang Nian, scaring him to bits.

After the exam ended, it was already eleven-thirty.

"Hey." Zhang Ningzhi smiled and greeted Wang Yuhe, girls also liked looking at long-legged beauties.

Many people envied Wang Yuhe’s long legs, looking so straight in jeans.

"Hey." Wang Yuhe extended her hand and gave Zhang Ningzhi a high-five.

Zhang Ningzhi was caught off guard and felt a bit dumbfounded.

"Huh?"

Jiang Nian chuckled, too lazy to watch the interaction of two little kids.

"Let’s go, time to eat."

"Oh right, eating!" Wang Yuhe remembered, quickly packed up, "I have to find Yunyun."

So, only Jiang Nian and Zhang Ningzhi went downstairs together.

"Where are you eating?"

"I’ll just grab something outside to tide me over, then come back and continue studying." Jiang Nian replied, quite casual.

"Oh." Zhang Ningzhi wanted to invite him for a meal but realized she didn’t have many options, unless bringing him home, "Alright then."

"Mm."

Downstairs, they walked to the corner where they would part ways.

Zhang Ningzhi stopped and couldn’t help asking, "Why... are you bringing drinks for the class monitor?"

"Hm?" Jiang Nian looked confused.

"No, I mean..." Zhang Ningzhi stammered a little, "You seem to get along well with everyone, huh?"

Jiang Nian looked confused, a classic "huh?" opening.

"I get along best with you."

Hearing this, Zhang Ningzhi glanced at him with some resentment. Even though she knew he said it on purpose, she was still very happy.

But precisely because of this, she found his slyness even more exasperating.

"You liar."

"Why would I lie to you, we’re number one in the world." Jiang Nian said easily, after all, talking is free.

There’s being the best in the world, and then being best in the heavens.

What if the whole heaven and earth are full?

Isn’t the middle empty!

So dull!

This is the meaning of studying, keeping the mind sharp and IQ higher. At moments like this, you charm rather than argue.

"Pfft, what do you mean number one under heaven." Zhang Ningzhi mumbled, but she couldn’t hide her smile.

"I’m off, bye-bye."

"Mm, bye-bye."

....

At noon.

In the classroom, only Jiang Nian was left.

Usually those who take naps in the classroom had gone home or to their dorms, since the next exam was at three in the afternoon.

"Darn bastard!"

"Where’s my warmer?" Yu Zhiyi’s voice came from the hallway, "Ahhhh, Jiang Nian!"

Only the two of them were in the classroom.

Jiang Nian looked up from his seat, sloth-like, and let out a "huh."

"What’s wrong with taking two?"

"So annoying, you even left a note!" Yu Zhiyi said, "Why did you rummage through my stuff?"

"Oh, accidentally found your Feizi." Jiang Nian said nonchalantly, "Stop yelling, it’s no big deal."

Yu Zhiyi: "....."

"Why aren’t you going back to the dorm?" Jiang Nian asked casually.

"Going soon, forgot to grab my mistake book." Yu Zhiyi waved the book in her hand.

Then, she turned around and left.

Anyway, after Yu Zhiyi’s ruckus, the classroom felt a bit livelier, not too quiet.

Jiang Nian smiled and continued studying.

After the lunch break, two or three people came into the classroom. Most people opted to go straight to the exam hall at two-thirty.

Two fifty, math exam.

Qi Xue hugged the math exam papers and paired up with another teacher. After getting the papers from the academic office, they arrived at the exam hall.

"The exam papers are completely sealed, now unsealing."

The male teacher showed it and started distributing the papers. Qi Xue handed out the answer sheets and stood at the back to invigilate.

Swish, swish, swish, the sound of papers being shuffled echoed.

"Has anyone not received an answer sheet?" Qi Xue’s voice was melodious, her short hair looked dashing.

Her pretty face, contrasted with her neutral style, gave people the fantasy that she’d look great in a dress.

In the exam hall, many boys’ eyes followed Qi Xue’s movements.

"Teacher, three short here." Jiang Nian raised his hand.

Someone in the row ahead of him had sent the answer sheets to the left, leaving the back short a few.

In a way, it’s rather abstract.

Probably still not fully awake.

"Mm." Qi Xue walked over, standing beside Jiang Nian, handing out answer sheets while giving him a couple of extra glances.

"Don’t be nervous, just perform normally."

Hearing this, Jiang Nian looked up.

These words, probably only they could understand. It’s a comfort to him, implying there’s no need to stress about one-off results.

"Mm, thank you, teacher." Jiang Nian nodded, his expression calm.

The nearby boys witnessed this scene, initially bewildered. Realizing it, their expressions turned incredulous.

An invigilator’s favoritism?

No, just because that guy’s handsome!

After the initial shock, jealousy burned within them. It was too unfair!

The exam hall wasn’t short of beauties like Zhang Ningzhi and Wang Yuhe.

But the allure of a mature woman to senior boys was incomparable to that of fresh-faced young beauties.

"Mm." Qi Xue nodded, finished handing out the answer sheets, and left.

On the podium, the male teacher was only slightly surprised for a moment. He reckoned Qi Xue had met a familiar student.

Just then, the exam bell rang.

"Ahem, the exam begins!"
