Chapter 652: The Benefactor's Gift

Yu Zhiyi did not think much of it; she was naturally broad-minded.

Because of a pair of big rabbits, the number of times she had been teased or stared at since she was little was too many to count.

There were good ones and bad ones, but if she took them all to heart, she wouldn't have time for anything else.

She wanted to shrug, but they were a bit heavy.

"This is also a burden."

"A beautiful burden," Dong Que added, her eyes full of envy; one only regrets having too little knowledge when the time comes to use it.

Milk to.

Yu Zhiyi knew what she was thinking just by looking at Dong Que's eyes, and she thought to herself, how could anyone like this?

Then let's switch, and let herself wear a beautiful little skirt.

Just as Yu Yourong was thinking this, she caught sight of a familiar figure in the crowd again; one glance and it was that lecher, what was he here to see?

Jiang Nian didn't pay attention to Yu Zhiyi; he was looking for someone in the crowd. The two girls were usually inseparable, so he would find Chen Yunyun first.

Wang Yuhe was too flighty; she might be running all over the sports field.

"Hey!"

"I'm not called 'Hey,' I have a name." Jiang Nian's shoulder was patted, and he heard a familiar voice.

She started with a Chu Yu-style combo, leaving the other party speechless.

"Why did you come down?"

"Can't I come down?"

"That's not it." Yu Zhiyi couldn't help but sway gently, her heels going up and down without touching the ground.

If it were night, I'm afraid if Lin Zhengying came, he would have to pull out a black donkey hoof.

"Just asking you, I'm going to jump rope in a while too."

"Oh." Jiang Nian didn't react much, his peripheral vision subconsciously drifting downward, looking at the bulging sweater through the zipper.

"Is jumping rope a very intense exercise?"

"Yeah." Yu Zhiyi pursed her lips, thinking to herself that he really was a lecher, "So annoying, I have to wear a jacket."

"I'm usually at home, and my state is even better than this."

When she said this, she secretly glanced at Jiang Nian's reaction, wanting to observe whether he felt regret.

The implication was that someone didn't run so fast that day. If she had changed her clothes, perhaps she would have wanted to exercise.

Regret it now!

Of course, if Jiang Nian had really stayed, that would be another matter; she wouldn't go so far as to actually change into a new outfit just to please him.

Why would she!

However, there was no expression on Jiang Nian's face.

"Wearing a jacket is good. In case you accidentally trip over the rope and roll out, you'll have some protection."

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhiyi was instantly enraged.

"You!!!"

"You really can't expect ivory to come out of a dog's mouth!"

What did he mean by "when you roll out, you'll have some protection"! Was this implying that her center of gravity was unstable and she would fall flat on her face!

Jiang Nian said nothing, seeing Yu Zhiyi's face turn red. He

felt no guilt, but instead said to himself.

"Dog teeth are also quite good. The sword in Inuyasha's hand is a dog tooth."

The girl's blushing face surpassed all monologues.

"Go to hell!"

Jiang Nian didn't go to the spa because Dong Que came over.

"Hi."

"Oh, you're participating too?" Jiang Nian glanced at her; she was only wearing a thin sweater.

"Yeah." Dong Que smiled brightly.

But after chatting about the weather for a sentence, she got stuck again. Watching him greet her and walk away, she felt secret regret.

If she had known, she should have prepared a little.

Jiang Nian didn't know the little lark was so robotic; he wove through the crowd and found Chen Yunyun by the side of the track.

"You're participating too?"

"No." Chen Yunyun shook her head and looked at him, "Yuhe ran off to the restroom, I'm waiting for her here."

"Deserting before the battle, not much use," Jiang Nian blathered, and was immediately patted by Chen Yunyun.

"Don't talk nonsense." She rolled her eyes at Jiang Nian, her tone slightly resentful, "If she hears too much, she'll take it seriously."

Quite protective.

"Got it." Jiang Nian answered vaguely, but didn't take it to heart, "When she comes, I'll say less."

Hearing this, Chen Yunyun nodded.

"Mm."

Before long, Wang Yuhe ran over from a distance.

"Yunyun!!"

"Heh." Jiang Nian stood to the side, arms crossed, and let out a cold laugh; he really didn't say a word.

"What are you doing!" Wang Yuhe clenched her fist; seeing him made her angry.

"Tsk."

"You!!" Wang Yuhe turned red in a second, really wanting to land a few punches on that annoying face.

Chen Yunyun covered her face; these two were at odds whenever they met.

"Stop messing around, the competition is about to start."

"Pfft! I won't lower myself to your level!" Wang Yuhe pulled Chen Yunyun away, and even took the time to turn back and make a face.

She had already listed Jiang Nian as her lifelong enemy; the grudge of the duck feet could not go unavenged, but she couldn't outplay him in schemes and tricks.

But it didn't matter; she would always find an opportunity.

When that time came, she would trample all over him!

It was called a competition, but it was actually just extracurricular entertainment.

However, the grade group still squeezed out some funds to set up prizes. Badminton rackets worth a few hundred yuan, thermos cups, and the like.

These things were unisex, only differing in price.

Jiang Nian watched for a while and was a bit interested in the badminton racket for first place; it looked quite high-end.

But he hadn't signed up and had no qualifications to compete for victory.

The competition had no real rules either; it was just a bunch of people jumping. Then they found

student council members to count, and did an initial screening.

Mistakes meant elimination; survival of the fittest.

Finally, seven or eight people remained in the men's and women's groups for a final.

Yu Zhiyi had plenty of momentum and jumped sixty-something times. But after a long time, she couldn't hold on and fell to her knees with a thud.

The burden was too heavy, which was understandable.

She returned in defeat, and turned to bump into Jiang Nian looking at her with a leisurely expression, a gloating smile on his face.

"Bastard!" She glared at Jiang Nian, her stomach aching with anger, "He just had to see it!"

Jiang Nian wanted to howl; the damn Yu Zhiyi jumped rope like a duck. He had just secretly taken several photos to keep as memes.

And she was acting weak, so womanly and whiny.

Soon, the top eight were decided.

The elementary school student had strong strength and naturally ranked among the immortals. Literary girls like Dong Que were purely there to accompany the run.

The class monitor didn't participate; she didn't like to be in the spotlight. The time she put in the most effort was during the autumn sports meet.

As for Xu Qianqian and the others, they wouldn't participate at all. These two sisters basically avoided such activities whenever they could. Thanks to the former head teacher, the whole class actually had no sense of collective honor.

Class Four was chaotic, with warlords carving up the territory.

When Class Three attacked, they were the first to run.

Although the school had changed their new head teacher, with the college entrance exam approaching, there was no need for repairs.

After graduation, at worst, they just wouldn't keep in touch.

"Chishi, you ran over here?" Li Hua grabbed him, "Damn, peeping at girls, are you!"

Subsequently, Ma Guojun also appeared happily.

Following behind were Liu Yang, Lin Dong, and the others. Basically, a small portion of the boys from Class Three had all come over here to watch the finals.

"Hm?" Jiang Nian was a bit confused, "Why did you all come over?"

"Lost."

"We were all wiped out, fell in the first round," Liu Yang said awkwardly, "The men's group, the competition is fierce."

"Sigh, if we had known, we would have let you go."

"I don't know how to jump rope," Jiang Nian refused.

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong looked puzzled.

"Is there anything you don't know how to do?"

Jiang Nian rolled his eyes, "There are plenty of things I don't know how to do; jumping rope is something only the sports students need to practice, right?"

"But even the sports students can't outrun you," Lin Dong retorted.

No one dwelled on this topic, Li Hua said, "If I had known, I would have come to the girls' side to watch from the beginning."

"Jiang Nian saw it all," Ma Guojun added with a sleazy jab.

"Damn it, this bastard is really shameless," Li Hua said in agony, "You dog, you enjoyed the show, didn't you!"

Actually, he hadn't. The temperature at the end of February wasn't high, and the girls were generally wearing jackets, so there wasn't much to see.

There were some doing bunny hops, but Jiang Nian was too lazy to go over.

He was too lazy to watch the small-scale ones, and he hadn't exactly never seen the large-scale ones before. In public, he still had to maintain his dignity.

"Hua, do you know what it means for a gentleman to be cautious when alone?" he said, "I'm in broad daylight, how could I be like you?"

"Damn it."

Ma Guojun stifled a laugh, "A gentleman is cautious when alone, Li Hua watches porn."

"Hahaha!!"

A group of boys burst into laughter; only Li Hua achieved the world of being hurt and red-faced.

Class 3 was quite lucky; at least they secured a spot in the women's quarterfinals, with Wang Yuhe forcefully charging into the finals.

People from their class formed a circle, waiting to watch the finals.

"Go, Wang Yuhe!"

"Take the championship!"

Jiang Nian stood in the inner circle and glanced at the elementary schooler. She was tall and had good stamina; she hadn't even broken a sweat after one round.

She rolled up her jacket sleeves, revealing a pair of jade-like arms.

Wang Yuhe's brute strength was an almost overwhelming presence among the girls. Even when facing boys, she still surpassed most of them.

He was clear about this point.

Jiang Nian was already pondering in his heart how to successfully trick her into giving him her pair of badminton rackets.

Wang Yuhe glanced at him and secretly gave him the middle finger.

"Hmph!"

Jiang Nian didn't care, but his peripheral vision alerted him. He actually discovered that among the top eight in the girls' group, there was another familiar face.

The big benefactor, Xu Shuang.

Xu Shuang also saw him and let her gaze linger for a moment. Feeling it would be impolite to look away, she simply nodded.

Jiang Nian was a bit surprised, thinking to himself, the benefactor has such good physical fitness?

"Hmm."

The whistle blew, and the scene was instantly filled with constant cheering. It erupted like a mountain roar, echoing over the sports field.

The jump rope almost became a blurred shadow, wrapping around the few of them.

As time passed, people gradually made mistakes. Or, due to lack of stamina, they fell behind one after another.

In the end, only four remained in the women's group.

Li Hua touched his chin, suddenly amused, and elbowed Jiang Nian, "If a Captain Dragonfly showed up, it would really fit the mood."

Jiang Nian turned his head and said with a calm face.

"Then the question arises, do you know why it's Captain Dragonfly and not some other 'dick' captain?"

Li Hua was like Louis XVI, completely clueless.

"Dick?"

"Isn't that thing against the rules if it's released?"

Ma Guojun, standing to the side, couldn't help but chime in with some trivia, "Because in Japan, the dragonfly is the insect of victory."

"Oh, oh." Li Hua was confused, then suddenly looked up, surprised, "Damn, how do you know that?"

You don't fear a friend being a moron,

You fear a friend getting smart.

Damn it, you're studying in secret, aren't you?

"Saw it in an AV."

"Oh, huh?"

It was even more absurd; Li Hua even suspected his ears were broken, "What 'v' did you just say? It's DV, right?"

Ma Guojun said, "Saw it in a movie, the male lead returned to the countryside..."

"Stop it." Liu Yang couldn't hold it in anymore; these two bastards were even more shameless than him, and there were girls all around.

Jiang Nian rubbed his chin, "You're quite particular, actually liking art films; remember to send me a copy."

Liu Yang couldn't take it anymore, these goddamn three scoundrels.

"Watch the match."

Among the top four, one girl was drenched in sweat. Her movements became sluggish, and she eventually couldn't hold on and lost.

After securing at least third place, another girl voluntarily stopped.

In the end, only Wang Yuhe and Xu Shuang remained, still persisting in jumping rope; the sweat on the benefactor's face was also increasing.

Exceptional talent, in the end, was no match for... an elementary schooler.

Regrettably defeated.

Jiang Nian hadn't been worried since Wang Yuhe secured a top-two spot; the second-place racket was also quite good.

However, first place would be even more vast and open.

"Holy shit!! First place!"

"Champion!"

"Wang Yuhe is really fierce, is her cardiopulmonary function that strong?"

In the crowd, the people from Class 3 burst into cheers. Although it was a school activity, the victory was indeed inspiring.

After the awards ceremony over there, Jiang Nian blended into the crowd, preparing to head back.

Suddenly, his arm was touched.

"Wait a moment."

"Hmm?"

He turned his head and found it was the benefactor, Xu Shuang. The latter had broken a bit of a sweat and was using a tissue to wipe her fair neck.

She was wearing a form-fitting tracksuit, and the curves of her chest were faintly visible.

"Do you know how to play badminton?"

Jiang Nian was stunned. What did that mean? In this day and age, after accepting a task, did he also have to entertain the benefactor?

However, she paid too much.

"Hmm... yeah, I do."

Just this once; a person shouldn't repeatedly betray their conscience.

"Then take this." Xu Shuang stuffed the runner-up prize she had won, a brand-new badminton racket, into his hands.

"This... how can I accept this?" Jiang Nian was surprised.

It's fine, it's okay.

He wouldn't necessarily accept things from others, but the benefactor was wealthy and generous. Jiang Nian knew this, so there was no need for fake modesty.

"I have one at home, my younger brother... you know," Xu Shuang shook her head, looking as if she were disappointed that he wouldn't live up to expectations.

What did your brother do to you!

We in the mountains don't look for trouble, nor do we fear it! Don't let slander and insults ruin Young Master Xu's life.

In Jiang Nian's eyes, Xu Yuanshan was simply as perfect as a money-giving boy.

Jiang Nian didn't have much to praise, so he used a universal formula, "It's alright, your brother is quite tall."

Xu Shuang: "..."

【Missing text】

"That's all, I'm heading back to class first." She shoved the racket at him, waved her hand, and left.

In the classroom, Wang Yuhe was standing in the hallway, stunned.

"Where did you get that racket?"

"None of your business?" Jiang Nian retorted, pretending to enter the classroom, then turned back and patted her head.

"Ah!!" Wang Yuhe reached out to hit him.

Unfortunately, Jiang Nian slipped away quickly.

The third period was Xi Bao's class, which had already been occupied by the activity for ten minutes, and the people in the classroom hadn't all arrived yet.

However, Xi Bao didn't care; she was still slacking off in the office.

"Hmm?" Li Hua had just returned to his seat and suspected his eyes were playing tricks on him, "Holy shit, where did you get that racket?"

"Someone gave it to me," he said indifferently.

Zhang Ningzhi hadn't returned yet, so Jiang Nian was exceptionally confident. Making a fuss over nothing, it was just a gift from a benefactor.

"A girl gave it to you, I saw it with my own eyes," Ma Guojun said, "The one from last time, on the stage."

Hearing this, Li Qingrong in the back row stopped her pen.

She glanced at Jiang Nian, who was still joking around with a few boys, and a thoughtful expression appeared on her face.

Zhizhi returned, unaware of the racket.

As she entered her seat, she glanced at the new racket hanging on Li Hua's chair, a flicker of confusion flashing in her eyes.

But in the end, she did not ask.

Zhang Ningzhi sat down and revealed a sweet smile, "Jiang Nian, guess what Beibei and I were just doing?"
