Chapter 399: Baby Zhizhi Openly and Aboveboard Shows Favoritism

How can a person get to know so many beautiful girls at the same time?

When girls get angry, if it turns into a friendship shura field, then before you even open your mouth to speak, you've already taken three knives and six holes.

Cheng-ge?

Even when the knife goes in, I still want to like you...:::.. all of you.

Can only say, very much in touch with life.

Jiang Nian now completely has too many debts to worry about. Going by this trend, the people who want to knife him could form a reinforced platoon.

Niannian said nothing, just lowering his head and practicing long-distance running.

After all, a person without a girlfriend — what's wrong with having a few more friends?

Friendship, long live!

He's currently in an unselectable state. When the time really comes, he indeed wouldn't dare to be as arrogant as he is now.

Not joking, even sleeping he has to take turns keeping watch with one eye.

Speaking of which.

Jiang Nian propped his head on his hand, pondering how to understand the class monitor a little more. Knowing nothing is not what a good friend does.

"What are you thinking about?"

Zhang Ningzhi's face appeared in his line of sight. Slowly, her energetic, adorable face occupied most of his field of vision.

Her hair cascaded down with it, like a waterfall of black silk.

Girls are such magical creatures — even though the light was blocked, his heart brightened because of this scene.

"Ah, no... nothing."

Being a simp means being unlucky for life; spending money on beautiful girls is accumulating virtue and doing good. Running into someone like Baby Zhizhi, he'd gladly blow his gold coins from the start.

"Oh." She straightened her sitting posture, and from some unknown emotion, asked sneakily, "Why did you zone out?"

Jiang Nian propped his head on his hand and casually spouted nonsense.

"Your dad doesn't really like me, does he."

The corridor was filled with winter sunshine, the sky outside the window was blue. The classroom was cool between classes, and most people had run out to sunbathe.

Zhang Ningzhi's whole person seemed to have been hit by a body-binding spell, suddenly frozen.

"No, they haven't even met."

"???" Jiang Nian was dumbfounded. "What I said doesn't seem to be this, but it's pretty close, after all, hate the house and the crow."

After he finished speaking, he casually did a verification.

Verification activated!

Verification question: Zhang Wanhai thinks I'm a yellow-haired kid.

【Verification correct】

Although Jiang Nian had long had the answer in his heart, the moment the verification result came out, he almost couldn't hold back the ghost-fire power within his body, and could barely suppress it.

Hearing this, Zhang Ningzhi suddenly became like a jammed gun, sputtering for a long time without being able to say a word.

"It's not like that."

"Hmm?" Jiang Nian leaned closer.

"My father's..... opinion,

simply..... isn't important." Zhang Ningzhi's voice was mosquito-thin. "I..... I don't listen to him anyway."

Jiang Nian was also stunned, suddenly realizing something.

Just as Jiang Nian didn't understand his twenty-seven or twenty-eight-year-old self, the Baby Zhizhi he knew in the system was also twenty-seven or twenty-eight.

Obviously, at that age, one can't only consider oneself.

But a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl is much braver than one of twenty-seven or twenty-eight. In personality, more rebellious, and also more daring to express. Seeing Jiang Nian hadn't spoken, Zhang Ningzhi couldn't help but press her lips together.

"What.... do you think?"

He didn't want to make the topic too heavy, so he casually reached out and touched her leg.

"I think..... pretty soft."

Zhang Ningzhi immediately became displeased, picked up a cup and poured hot water. While watching him out of the corner of her eye, she drank angrily, gulp gulp gulp.

Big pervert wolf!

She had been worried and scared for a while for nothing — his mind only had legs!!

Next time, kick him flying!

Thinking this, she glanced at Jiang Nian again out of the corner of her eye. Seeing him playing with an eraser on the desk, she was immediately choked by the water. "Cough cough cough!!!"

Her face immediately flushed hot, feeling the gazes from around the classroom. Wanting to calm herself down, she instead coughed harder and harder.

She lowered her head, and a few tissues were pulled out and placed in front of her.

"You can choke even drinking water?" Jiang Nian's one sentence almost made her die of anger. "I was thinking, no one's competing with you for it."

"Cough cough cough!!" Zhang Ningzhi was both angry and coughing.

Suddenly, her back was patted a few times.

She immediately stiffened, thinking this was the classroom. Her face started heating up unconsciously, a warm current rising from her heart.

The coughing also stopped, and she directly slumped onto the desk.

Zhang Ningzhi pressed her face against the cool desk, listening to the bustling voices in the classroom while cooling down as if she'd applied an ice pack.

Until the bell rang.

She stood up as if nothing had happened, as if the class's memory had been refreshed, and slowly pulled out the second-round review materials.

She couldn't help it again, and quickly glanced at Jiang Nian.

The good-looking culprit was propping his head on his hand. His long, slender-jointed fingers rested on the back of his neck, acting as if nothing had happened.

Zhang Ningzhi snorted, neither lightly nor heavily, and set her book down on the desk.

Jiang Nian heard the sound and glanced at her out of the corner of his eye. His idle hand moved, seeming about to reach for her leg.

"Huh?" Zhang Ningzhi was startled.

He must be crazy!

Class is in session, and the aisles are full of classmates returning to their seats.

Smack— Jiang Nian's hand was slapped away. He didn't make a fuss, just slowly drew his hand back like some lord of leisure.

Zhang Ningzhi watched, grinding her teeth, even more annoyed.

That big

pervert! As long as she didn't refuse, he'd keep touching. Then he'd push his luck, and in the end dare to do anything!

The last class of the morning, the chemistry teacher was outlining the key points for the second-round review, casually organizing the main points on the blackboard.

Each knowledge point, like branches strung together into a towering tree.

Jiang Nian listened with great interest; he'd been doing practice papers like crazy lately.

Every night when he got home, with nothing better to do, he'd do a paper first. Occasionally when the mood struck, he'd keep going straight until two in the morning.

Li Hua listlessly yawned, seemingly staring fixedly at the blackboard. In reality, he was just looking up at the clock.

Fifteen more minutes, just waiting for school to end.

With nothing to do, he started stretching his neck. He happened to notice the class monitor in the back row spacing out, quietly staring at Jiang Nian in a daze.

Li Hua instantly clenched his teeth, thinking, damn Jiang Nian.

Did he drug the class monitor?

Li Hua didn't think too much of it; as for Jiang Nian being popular with girls— well, he couldn't say he was completely numb, but ninety-nine percent of him was.

The words of beasts, hardly worth believing; I've long since stopped being surprised.

In a flash, the noon dismissal crowd flowed like a weave.

Qingbao had just walked out of Class Two, turned her head in the sunlit corridor packed with people, and saw a familiar face.

That disciple surnamed Jiang was reaching out and smiling, greeting her.

Out of politeness, she stopped walking.

Once Jiang Nian caught up, the first thing he said was—

"Teacher, our class won yesterday."

"Mm, I know." Qingbao was all business outside, but still added, "I went to watch, stood a bit far away."

Hearing that, Jiang Nian waved his hand.

"Group stage isn't worth watching, those guys just forced me to say it. Wait for the finals, teacher, come watch me take the championship."

In front of Qingbao he was a righteous, steady gentleman, and he used a disdainful tone to criticize his horny brothers— one could only say Jiang Nian was truly noble.

If Qingbao showed any sign of interest, he'd shift the stories about himself onto Li Hua and keep telling her.

Spilling all his brothers' dirt, just to make the beauty laugh.

Qingbao smiled. "You guys, keep it up."

It was a very ordinary sentence; outside she liked to brush people off so seriously like this, and even Jiang Nian was no exception.

For no other reason than to maintain her serious-teacher persona.

However, this scene, in the eyes of the Class Two students just dismissed on the staircase, looked absurdly off. They turned to look at Jiang Nian one after another.

"What the hell, champion! How is this guy bragging in front of the biology teacher? He's not embarrassed, I'm embarrassed just listening."

"Confident, I guess. Champion, haha."

"Just to act cool, he really dares to say it. The type who sees a pretty

girl and stabs his brothers in the back without hesitation."

The staircase was noisy, those few voices not avoiding people at all.

Naturally, they fell into Jiang Nian's ears as well.

Hearing that, he didn't react. Those words were originally meant for Qingbao; of course they'd sound grating to others.

People hate two things most: others showing off, and others not letting me show off!

Let them be as sour as they want; he just liked bragging with Qingbao. Besides, if a Gao Zhongsheng isn't wild, can he still be called a youth?

There were also Class Three boys on the staircase, who upon hearing this showed displeasure on their faces.

Luo Yong didn't dare to argue back, lowered his head.

Liu Yang was a bit annoyed, just stepped forward.

"We damn well know we won one game too. Playing football isn't about winning the championship? Or should we hide it in your mom's belly like you guys?"

Crude words, but not without truth: a soldier who doesn't want to be a general isn't a good soldier.

"Mm, I believe in you guys." Qingbao unexpectedly spoke up. "Do your best, a photo with the championship would definitely look cool."

Her quite sincere words directly stunned the few trolls from Class Two. Each and every one gaped,

as if struck by lightning.

Wanting a photo with the championship—the subtext was believing Jiang Nian would take it.

Since Qingbao was also Class Two's biology teacher, she was usually quite cautious. She never made any absolute judgment about anyone.

Let alone, like today, taking someone's side.

Such an evaluation was worth more than a thousand words.

Generally speaking, a high school teacher's care for students comes with conditions. For instance, top students can get some favoritism from the teacher.

Especially in Gao San, this situation is relatively common; teachers and these top students have a mutually beneficial relationship.

Those with good relationships can even get to eat snacks from the teacher's office.

Even the homeroom teacher of the zero class—rumor has it that one day, upon learning the girls in the class hadn't eaten lunch, she took them straight to the faculty cafeteria to eat.

Those little male cliques could only lower their heads and quietly head downstairs, no longer able to utter a single snide remark.

Ye Yanqing suddenly speaking up for Jiang Nian, and doing it so obviously. It wasn't simply caring for him anymore—it had crossed into outright favoritism.

But after all, there is no baseless favoritism under heaven. This proved that at the very least, their teacher-student relationship was of the mutually-fulfilling kind.

And that also meant Jiang Nian could get access to all kinds of resources from Ye Yanqing.

This is...::::: the treatment of a study god.

Liu Yang was dumbfounded. Clearly, that group of snide commenters had already left. But right now he felt incredibly itchy all over.

He wanted to throw out a snarky remark, to viciously backstab his teammate.

Bros are those creatures—those dark little beings—who can stand to see you doing well, but if you're doing too well, they'd suggest you go drop dead.

You son of a bitch! Jiang Nian!

Luo Yong was dumbfounded too. His instinct told him that getting into conflict with people wasn't good. But he hadn't expected Ye Yanqing to shield her protégé, and he was completely floored.

Once he came back to his senses, the jealousy made his breathing grow heavier.

One could only say, it's human nature.

Apart from a small warmth in his heart, Jiang Nian basically felt nothing else. As the senior disciple of the inner sect, wasn't a bit of preferential treatment perfectly normal?

The white doves of the cathedral won't kiss the crows, and the chief senior disciple won't walk side by side with some stray-dog classmate.

Hehe.

Once downstairs, Jiang Nian first thanked her. Then he took the initiative to take Ye Yanqing's lesson plan and skipped happily toward the office.

"Teacher, let's go."

Ye Yanqing glanced at the office only ten meters away, then glanced back at the crowded stairwell behind her...

"The last ten meters, and you suddenly thought to carry my lesson plan for me?"

"Huh?" Jiang Nian was a little embarrassed, so he simply walked straight toward the office. "Teacher, I'll go make you some tea first."

Ye Yanqing: "..

She entered the office, glanced at Jiang Nian making tea, and sat straight down in the chair, squinting her eyes as she played with her phone.

After a few minutes, Jiang Nian set down the tea and prepared to leave.

"Take your time drinking it, teacher."

"Something you need?" Ye Yanqing asked casually.

"Yeah, my family's poor, can't afford the cafeteria food." Jiang Nian lowered his head and pretended to wipe his eyes. "I can only go home and cook."

Ye Yanqing: "???"

She sat up and rummaged through the drawer, pulling out a meal card.

"This is for the faculty cafeteria's..:::

"No need, I'm heading out first." Jiang Nian grinned, waved, and left the office. "See you, teacher!"

Ye Yanqing sat back in the chair, her brows slightly furrowed. Realizing this guy's mouth was completely unreliable, she couldn't help but purse her lips in exasperation.

Then she stretched out her slender, well-defined fingers to feel for the teacup.

Noon, the weather was clear and bright.

Inside the lottery shop.

Since national regulations state that ten thousand yuan doesn't require tax, Jiang Nian smoothly collected his third-prize winnings—a total of ten thousand yuan.

The middle-aged boss's eyes were glued straight ahead the entire time, thinking to himself that he'd really seen a ghost.

Yesterday he'd even specifically sent a WeChat message to his wife, mocking how students nowadays don't study properly and instead daydream.

But today, this student had won.

Damn it, he really should've died, didn't he cheat, you animal! Buying a single ticket and still winning, and it was a machine-pick—what kind of father do you have!

Thinking that even a student could win the lottery, the boss felt both happy and jealous.

He was happy hoping this story would spread, but when he looked up at the student wearing a mask in front of him, he fell silent again.

"Uh..... young man, you only won ten thousand

Not ten million. No need to be this cautious, take the mask off."

Jiang Nian remained unmoved and said calmly.

"I caught the flu. I heard this illness is really sinister. If you infect someone else, you'll be fine, but that person will become impotent."

The boss, who had just been about to open his mouth, suddenly closed it again.

Damn it, why is there a curse stacked on top?

"Fine then, congratulations."

After saying that, the boss asked another question.

"Donate a little?"

"My family can't afford food, we've been starving for two days." Jiang Nian collected the money without a moment's hesitation and turned to leave directly.

Only the middle-aged boss was left alone, disheveled in the wind.

With the money in hand, Jiang Nian headed toward home.

He first called someone to arrange the road repair, took a photo and sent it over, and settled the price on the spot.

A bit pricey, but Jiang Nian didn't care.

The lottery money came from the people, and now it was being used for the people. Since the road needed fixing anyway, he took the chance to repair a little extra stretch.

After buying groceries at the market, he went upstairs and knocked on Xu Qianqian's door.

"Little white rabbit, be good, open the door......

He hadn't even hummed a few lines before the door opened from inside, revealing a beautiful girl's face wearing a thoroughly exasperated expression.

"One of ours, don't speak."
