She guessed his little schemes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Geng Lu first started school, she dared to mock Ma Shicheng. Her good temper was reserved only for Jiang Ning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Liu Chuandao’s behavior, naturally, Geng Lu didn’t show a good expression. She didn’t hide her disdain, glancing at him and sneering:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You usually leave your seat and get pinched by Pang Jiao a lot, right? What’s up, have you learned this trick too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sentence was like a pin, piercing Liu Chuandao’s heart, making him recall the humiliations he faced. He let out an angry low roar: \"What nonsense are you talking?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Geng Lu didn’t even look at him, turned her head and walked away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Chuandao wanted to reason with her, but somehow, when he touched the iron door, a stabbing pain like a needle pierced his hand, and a beautiful spark of static electricity flew out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Shang Caiwei, sitting at her desk, noticed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The classroom door was already in motion, and the static electricity just paralyzed Liu Chuandao. He yelped, and never mind striking a pose, his body directly lost balance and he fell flat on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning, with one hand in his pocket, retracted the spell he just cast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He happened to walk to the door and saw Liu Chuandao lying on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning said leisurely: \"No need for such a big gesture, it’s not appropriate.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the hallway, Cui Yu heard the commotion and said jokingly: \"Brother Ning, aren’t you going to give him a couple of coins as a reward?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the big break of the second period of evening self-study, Class 8 was in chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the linked seats in the back row, Dan Kaiquan glanced at Bai Yuxia sitting in front of him, feeling no more ripples in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he had moved on to a new love.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dan Kaiquan shouted: \"Brother Nan, not running tonight, I’ll come over to hang out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure, come on over.\" Dan Kaiquan sat down in Xin Youling’s seat, much closer to Bai Yuxia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He deliberately raised his voice: \"I’ve got the QQ number of a junior from the first year!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two cooperated seamlessly, Guo Kunnan joining in loudly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Impressive, Brother Quan! The junior is really pretty, even in our class she stands out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dan Kaiquan: \"Of course, my taste can never be wrong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their loud voices attracted a lot of attention, with Meng Ziyun and Tang Jing casting curious glances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, Bai Yuxia remained unmoved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dan Kaiquan continued talking like nobody was watching: \"I’m adding her now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Kunnan: \"With Brother Quan on it, it’s a done deal in minutes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dan Kaiquan: \"Low profile, low profile.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dan Kaiquan told Wang Longlong about the girl he’s interested in, and Wang Longlong used the freshman group’s network to quickly pinpoint the target, showing him a picture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dan Kaiquan recognized the girl at a glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl’s QQ required a correct answer to a question for verification, and Wang Longlong happened to get the answer as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dan Kaiquan looked at the question in the friend verification: ’Yang Liu Yiyi.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He entered the numbers 25, 12, 25, 25, passed the answer verification, and successfully added her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Kunnan: \"Awesome!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dan Kaiquan gave a faint smile, first entering the girl’s space and liking all her posts from top to bottom, showing his sincerity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The last evening self-study session.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xin Youling, as the class monitor, was called away for a meeting, leaving Huang Zhongfei conveniently relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He recalled how back then, every time he returned from such meetings, accidents were prone to happen in the class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which made him fear meetings, but now, all worries dissipated, living leisurely without the responsibilities of a class monitor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Xin Youling left, with no one to manage the discipline, the room buzzed with countless conversations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong was sleeping, Jiang Ning, sitting by the window, shared a desk with Bai Yuxia, helping her with questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The current top ten in Class 8 for the grade included Xue Yuantong, Jiang Ning, and Chen Qian, all candidates for prestigious 985 universities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In comparison, Bai Yuxia was trailing far behind, currently ranking in the thirties for the whole school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If her performance continues, she might get into a decent 211 university, but for 985, there is still quite a gap, and a long way to go for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning, with a quick mind, though not as sharp as Xue Yuantong, was able to explain things in a way Bai Yuxia could understand, always benefiting greatly from it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Yuxia’s desk-mate, Chai Wei, silently watched this scene unfold again and again, feeling aggrieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He kept reminding himself, ’Victory isn’t confined within the board, but beyond it!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he, is the one to overturn the board!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning set up an array, reducing much of the noise, as outside the array, due to the reason it’s the last evening self-study, many students with active minds were goofing around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Qingfeng and Jiang Yanan were discussing local snacks in the urban area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pang Jiao was doing makeup, while Liu Chuandao was ’in prison.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cui Yu and Meng Gui were watching videos, with the volume set to two squares on external speakers, while Duan Shigang leaned in for a look of appreciation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Kunnan and Hu Jun were engrossed in a chess game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miao Zhe was in an online relationship, while Wu Xiaoqi was pretending to nap with a ball in his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Jing, Meng Zi Yun, and Cao Kun are playing Truth or Dare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Zi Yun lost, and Tang Jing asked: \"Who do you like the most in our class?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Kun held his head high, wearing a casual smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Zi Yun beamed: \"Of course, it’s you, my dear sister.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Kun’s shoulders drooped instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Tang Jing lost, Meng Zi Yun asked, \"Which boy do you like the most in our class?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiang Li, sitting in the front row, turned around and interrupted: \"You guys are playing big?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meng Zi Yun: \"It’s only exciting when you play big.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jingjing, hurry up and tell us, who is the boy you like most in our class?\" Her voice was a bit louder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was curious about the gossip, so the surrounding noise diminished significantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Jing raised her head, her laugh was quite unnatural, entirely different from the usual amiability of a girl, instead carrying a tint of madness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She shouted loudly: \"The boy I like most in our class is... Huang Yuzhu!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as these words were spoken, all the classmates around were stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many admitted that Huang Yuzhu was honest and capable, but his looks were somewhat mature, not easily liked by girls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now Tang Jing actually confessed publicly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Yuzhu, sitting behind Tang Jing, had never encountered anything like this, and was at a complete loss, not daring to believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before others could react, Tang Jing said carelessly: \"Because he’s a good guy, actively helping us carry water, hahaha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the farce ended, the surroundings returned to calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the connected four seats, Wang Longlong lowered his voice: \"That nasty woman isn’t a good person!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He held a strong prejudice against Meng Zi Yun, who bullied his deskmate in elementary school, thus being quite displeased with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Shicheng: \"Look at the nonsense she’s up to.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Truth or Dare ended, Tang Jing gave Meng Zi Yun an ambiguous look, she just planted a seed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for boys like Huang Yuzhu, who are honest and upright, Tang Jing understood thoroughly. With a little trick, she could influence them and gradually control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At home by the river dam, Xue Yuantong took a shower, changed into a little white dress, and ran to Jiang Ning’s room to play.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A box of desserts was placed on the small round table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took a closer look and couldn’t help but exclaim: \"Ice cream puffs!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was stunned by the sudden surprise, her bell-like clear voice rang:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jiang Ning, you bought it for me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong’s freshly showered face was bright red, her eyes shone, pure joy filled the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, eat up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had been talking about it since last night, Jiang Ning had specially arranged for someone to buy them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re the best.\" Xue Yuantong ran over and ruffled his hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was so delighted, she picked up the box of puffs, went home, and gleefully bragged to her mom: \"Mom, look, my Jiang Ning bought me something delicious!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt light and airy all over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After her daughter was happy for a while, Aunt Gu said: \"You’re only allowed to eat three.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong was taken aback: \"What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aunt Gu: \"Kids shouldn’t eat too many sweets at night.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong pouted in protest: \"I’m 15 now, already an adult.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aunt Gu glared at her: \"Hmm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aunt Gu took away the box of puffs, leaving only three for Xue Yuantong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong was heartbroken, she took the remaining puffs sadly to find Chuchu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chuchu was studying under the lamp, \"Look, Jiang Ning bought me ice cream puffs, they’re super tasty, I’ll share one with you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Chuchu routinely refused: \"No need, no need.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong, \"Well, since you’re not eating, I’m off then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, she left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chuchu was unprepared, shouldn’t she have asked again?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She thought of the round, plump puffs, even without tasting, she knew that beneath the crispy outer shell was cool, smooth ice cream cream...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chuchu felt a pang of regret in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong returned to Jiang Ning’s room, her face dejected: \"My mom only left me with two puffs, let’s each have one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning glanced at the crumb of puff pastry on her lip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better than he expected, she actually thought of sharing with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, he pulled out another box of ice cream puffs: \"Here, I bought two boxes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1670,"2026-05-30T14:40:06.128Z","2026-06-01T04:31:29.709Z",1,"novelbin.me","2904ef65a817014b58998fe0aff380f48698246bc49f37bc917e4f8d190c343d","rebirth-slice-of-life-cultivation-chapter-869","rebirth-slice-of-life-cultivation-chapter-867",1809,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frebirth-slice-of-life-cultivation-cover.jpg"]
