Chapter 186: Infected by Jiang Nian—Everything Looks Yellow Now
Zhang Nianzhi never expected Jiang Nian to be so direct—three words sent her heart rate soaring.
How can this person be... so shameless.
Jiang Nian saw her hiding and avoiding, and wanted to see how she'd stay silent.
Just as he leaned in, she buried her head to the other side, blocking Jiang Nian's view.
His competitive spirit flared—he stood up straight and stretched his head over.
Unable to see, he bent his body into an arch, braced one hand against the wall, and strained to peek.
Let me see—can you really be that shy?
Zhang Nianzhi couldn't take this man's predatory behavior—how could anyone stare when someone was embarrassed?
Not only did he not look away, he circled around her, peering from all sides.
So she simply laid her face down on the desk.
She felt Jiang Nian had finally given up—she heard the sound of him sitting back down.
But she still didn't dare lift her head, so she kept lying on the desk, resting.
Jiang Nian did quiet down a bit, grabbed Li Hua's pen, and tossed it casually—it landed in Ma Guojun's metal pen holder.
To be fair, this skill isn't worse than 【Fishing】.
Being cool is a lifelong thing.
The 【Precision】 skill isn't a conceptual god-tier ability—it loses accuracy at long range—but it should be very useful for outdoor dating games, like catching plush toys or ring toss.
Okay, catch the plush toy to win the girl, fish to win the father-in-law.
Now the question is: where do you get a girlfriend?
At that moment, Li Hua peeked in through the classroom door and slipped in.
He'd just sat down, glanced furtively around, then lowered his voice to Jiang Nian.
"Nian, guess what I brought?"
"Fly."
"Shut up!" Li Hua's face turned pale with horror, clutching his backpack, "You're fucking disgusting—can't you be civilized? Classy?"
"Isn't Tagore's 'Stray Birds' elegant?" Jiang Nian stared blankly, pointing at Li Hua, "You're a wild boar who can't digest fine rice."
Li Hua: "."
Bastard, you were definitely just thinking of 'Stray Birds.' Fly—no, flown, you've already been infected by Jiang Nian.
Everything looks yellow now—you can't even look at the world straight anymore.
"What dead sound?" Jiang Nian saw him still flapping around—fly your head off—"You meant that word, didn't you, Hua? You're mentally filthy."
"Fuck, I didn't!" Li Hua tried to protest.
"Didn't?" Jiang Nian turned it around.
After a burst of noise, the big fat guy Ma Guojun walked in through the door with his backpack. Seeing the commotion near Jiang Nian, he couldn't help but smirk, then sidled over.
"What are you guys talking about?"
Hearing that, Li Hua finally had a chance to pull out his "good stuff" from his bag.
A brand-new complete set of A Shuai comics.
"Fuck, this thick?" Jiang Nian's eyes bulged, unable to resist running his hand over the packaging, "Damn, still sealed."
"After you finish, let me read it—no, better yet, read one page and tear it out for me," Ma Guojun crowded in, sighing in awe as his fat hand reached out to touch it.
"How's that? Cool, right?" Li Hua beamed. "There are four volumes—I had someone buy them all online, way cheaper than the bookstore."
"Damn it, are you hoarding them?" Ma Guojun panted, impatient, desperate to rip open the plastic wrap and feast his eyes.
"Fuck, are you keeping it in a golden chamber?" Jiang Nian grabbed Li Hua's collar, impatient, "You stash all the good stuff at home—what about your bros?"
The three boys huddled together like perverts, snorting and drooling, catching Zhang Nianzhi's attention.
She lifted her head, glancing toward Jiang Nian's direction.
Perhaps by chance, Jiang Nian seemed to sense something—he turned his head without warning just as Baby Zhizhi looked back, catching her red-handed.
Li Hua jumped at his sudden turn, instinctively asking:
"What are you doing?"
"Nothing, just saw something," Jiang Nian turned back. "Thought something flew by—thought the school had a cat."
Zhang Nianzhi's head felt hot, her forehead pressed against her arm, lips pressed tight.
Bad person.
Morning self-study began.
Zhou Yuting was dazed, her mind replaying that morning's chat over and over.
The mysteriously appearing "Clown" was clearly someone's alt account.
Probably gained access to this exam-trading chat group through some method.
But everyone's identity in the group was hidden, using unrelated alt accounts.
She'd even checked carefully.
The alt account was clean—even if someone tried to "open the box," they'd find zero traces. Even the linked phone number wasn't hers.
Yet the Clown still accurately called out her name.
That was terrifying.
The group chat had been a masked ball—everyone spoke behind masks. But now one person knew her identity, while she didn't know his/hers.
The masked ball had turned into a dark forest.
That was deeply unsettling.
Who the fuck is this heartless Wang Ba, cutting the bridge after crossing, smashing the bowl after eating?
Slowly, she calmed down.
First, the other party must have also bought the test questions, otherwise they couldn't have stayed in this group. It proved the other party wasn't some clean person either—at the very least, they had a weakness.
The optimal solution right now was to wait.
Wait for that grandson to state his conditions, say more, and expose as much information about the "clown" as possible.
Then follow the trail and drag this shady bastard out into the open.
But that bastard said a few words and went offline!
Ah! So infuriating!
Zhou Yuting's emotions swung up and down, her silver teeth nearly shattering from the grinding.
When she thought of the exciting parts, she wished she could tear apart the bastard who had opened her box with her bare hands, beat him to death with one punch!
Beyond her anger, she also began to worry—what if the other party really was a lunatic? After all, who would say something as ridiculous as "ally of justice"?
Usually lunatics don't play by the rules. Could that person have actually reported himself?
Because of this, she felt deeply uneasy, desperate to grab hold of that "clown."
Actually, she wasn't without suspects. The first was Jiang Nian.
But thinking that an ordinary person couldn't get into that group, she actively ruled out Jiang Nian as a suspect.
From this angle, she reasonably suspected it was Yu Tongjie. After all, if she could get in through connections, someone of Yu Tongjie's status had no reason not to be able to get in.
After thinking it through, Zhou Yuting still had no leads. She wasted an entire morning reading period, completely spaced out.
On the other side, Yu Tongjie was also panicking, but compared to Zhou Yuting, he was a bit steadier.
He was betting that the other party wouldn't dare show their face again.
Since the other party already knew his identity, they understood the consequences of tearing off the facade.
This towering rage—who wouldn't be afraid of it?
Morning reading period ended.
"Hey, turn the page, why are you reading so slowly?" Jiang Nian urged. "Hua, is your dementia acting up? Two minutes to read one page of manga."
"Don't turn it yet, I haven't finished looking!" Ma Guojun, separated by an aisle, craned his neck to look. "Li Hua, hold it higher—you trying to make me a giraffe?"
Li Hua: ". Grass!"
