CHAPTER 764: CHAPTER 593: THE RED ENVELOPE TORTURE SESSION

This time in the morning, the class monitor is hardly awake.

Jiang Nian just sent it casually.

Over the five or six days, the two occasionally chatted. Like "What did you eat today," "What time did you go to bed last night."

But their routines are different; he often replies after he finishes his exercises in the middle of the night.

Li Qingrong usually sees it in the morning and replies, only to receive Jiang Nian’s response by noon.

It’s not a lack of care, just really there’s not much to talk about.

However, no matter what, they kept in touch after the New Year, sharing bits of their lives.

After a while.

Nine o’clock.

People started trickling into the study room.

He looked up, didn’t recognize anyone. So, he continued working on his problems until someone familiar sat in front.

"Cai Xiang?"

"Hmm." Cai Xiaoqing put down the bag, turned and glanced at him, casually asking, "When did you come?"

"Around seven o’clock, I guess."

Cai Xiaoqing: "???"

"I remember this study room doesn’t open until eight, right?"

"Uh..." Jiang Nian didn’t know what to say, "Maybe today is the first day, they opened early."

Cai Xiaoqing didn’t ask further, not being much of a talker.

Just loves lurking.

After a while, Dong Que came, bringing a seven or eight-year-old girl with her, carrying a small bag to study.

"Morning, Xiaoqing." She waved enthusiastically, "This is my sister, insisted on following me out."

Then, quietly, she instructed the girl.

"Don’t make noise, okay?"

"Got it!"

Cai Xiaoqing nodded slightly.

"Yeah."

She quite likes people calling her Xiaoqing, since most in the class call her the disciplinary committee, or Cai Xiang.

Truth be told, the person behind her calls the most.

"Call her Sister Xiaoqing," Dong Que said.

The little girl followed and called, not seeming to be the noisy type. She was then guided to call Jiang Nian Brother.

"So obedient." Jiang Nian reached into his pocket and pulled out a red envelope, "Here, Happy New Year."

Cai Xiaoqing: "Aren’t you...?"

She really doesn’t get why he carries red envelopes around. Plus, she finally understood some classmates’ feelings.

This guy is too much! Why does he show off everything?

Dong Que was also stunned, never expected Jiang Nian would pull out a red envelope. Once she snapped out of it, she was quite flustered.

"No, no, no, please don’t."

"She can’t take it!"

"Why can’t she take it? I’m heading to the restroom." Jiang Nian stood up and called Li Hua in the hallway.

"Hua, are you up?"

"At the market?" Li Hua’s voice was weak, clearly just waking up, "So early, you’d better have a reason!"

"School, study room." Jiang Nian began explaining, "Study group, come over and gather."

"Chi Shi!!"

"Come over, there are loli voices here."

Hearing this, Li Hua’s voice suddenly rose several notches, like he jumped off the bed, asking with delight.

"Really?"

Jiang Nian said, "If I lie to you, I’m your son."

Among the guys, this phrase is quite authoritative. Li Hua believed it too, already shuffling to get up.

"What class is she from?"

"Hmm... I can’t say for sure." Jiang Nian recalled Dong Que’s sister, "Anyway, not many people in the class."

"Whoa, so it’s zero class?" Li Hua shouted, "By the way, is she arts or sciences?"

"Waiting for you to ask." Jiang Nian said vaguely.

Li Hua was deeply moved by this.

"Good buddy, I’m coming right over! Just wait for me~~!!! (voice breaks)"

Then, Jiang Nian called Ma Guojun, but the big guy was at his rural hometown, so it didn’t work out.

Tsk, dodged a bullet.

Half an hour later, Li Hua dashed into the study room, carrying some books, the top one was about Thoughts and Morals.

No choice, he barely brought any books or assignments home. Grabbed a junior high textbook for a quick fix.

Before entering, he peered around furtively.

Though called a study room, it’s essentially a big conference room. Large enough to hold an estimated four or five classes of students simultaneously.

"Where are they?"

Li Hua muttered, until he saw Jiang Nian and Cai Xiaoqing, Dong Que and the others sitting in a small area in the middle.

His demeanor shifted sharply, tidying up his hairstyle.

"Oh, over there."

Jiang Nian actually spotted Li Hua at the door but didn’t make a sound until he walked over sedately.

"Ah, here?"

"Yeah." Li Hua nodded, while greeting the disciplinary committee and music committee, "Class committee gathering?"

Jiang Nian looked up, "I’m not a class committee member."

"Shut it, you fool." Li Hua pointed at him, "Whether you’re part of the committee, I have my judgment."

After speaking, he coughed once.

"That one you mentioned..."

"Oh oh, this is who I told you about..." Jiang Nian turned to introduce, "Dong Que’s little sister, cute, right?"

Dong Que snapped back, hastily said.

"Quick, call him Brother Li Hua."

The little girl sweetly repeated, truly loli-toned. Li Hua was instantly flabbergasted, frozen in place.

But he couldn’t just speak frankly, as it wouldn’t be appropriate.

"Okay, everyone’s... everyone’s good."

Cai Xiaoqing glanced at Li Hua, quietly pulled out a red envelope from her pocket, and tucked it into the little girl’s pocket.

"Happy New Year, a little token from sister."

Li Hua: "???"

"Wait, Cai Xiang, how come...?"

He admitted; at that moment, he was indeed flustered.

Left in too much hurry, only brought his phone. Not to mention a red envelope, he didn’t bring keys; his pockets emptier than his face.

This was bought by Cai Xiaoqing just outside the school gate, exchanged for cash with the seller. Held onto it until now, only giving it to Li Hua.

Have to admit, it felt pretty good.

Li Hua was speechless, but he wasn’t the only one present. Jiang Nian, the rascal, even pretended not to notice.

At that moment, he resignedly understood.

Though Jiang Nian was a rascal and tricked him into coming, luckily, he shamelessly blocked for him once.

Merits and faults balance, cut and decide right away.

"How could she accept it, my sister just got a red envelope from Jiang Nian." Dong Que appeared more flustered.

She only brought her sister along on a whim, never expected Jiang Nian would be here. Nor that she’d get a red envelope.

How would "others" perceive it?

Upon hearing this, Li Hua fell silent again.

He turned to look at Jiang Nian with a blank face, a thousand thoughts galloping through his mind, heart instantly bleak.

Beast!

But, upon learning there were red envelopes for sale at the school gate, Li Hua also joined this round of fishing.

...

Close to noon, Xu Qianqian finally woke up.

First rolled over in bed, grabbed her phone for a look at the time, suddenly remembered the rice cake breakfast in the morning.

She felt angry at first, but given her habit of sleeping in, she mulled over it and decided to check TikTok for solutions.

Scrolling, she came to herself again at twelve.

"Ah?"

She dazedly regained clarity in her eyes, remembered to send Jiang Nian a message, then pondered the wording.

"Your Majesty, you didn’t get breakfast for me."

"I’m very mad!"

"[Dragon Fury]!"

"But considering you are studying, I grant you an evening reprieve to bring me rice cake for dinner, thus ordered."

All messages sent, and Jiang Nian hadn’t replied yet. Xu Qianqian giggled, rolling over on the bed.

On the other side.

Jiang Nian was about to have lunch, only then took out his phone from the bag and checked Xu Qianqian’s message.

"Have you ever woken up early during a holiday?"

"Got it."

After replying, he glanced at the chat with the class monitor. The monitor hadn’t even woken up at twelve; quite something.

During holidays, everyone’s habits in the class magnified.

Buzzz!!

Zhang Ningzhi: "Time for a meal! Are you coming?"
