Divorce Revenge System: Knowing the Future in Advance-Chapter 1016 - 718: Loose Cultivators No Longer Have to Stand in the Rain (2)

For example, Zhang Ningzhi and Li Qingrong occasionally exchange words with Jiang Nian during class, passing pens or scratch papers and the like.

Most of the time, Jiang Nian has a playful smile. Sometimes, he even gets a playful punch from Zhang Ningzhi when he makes her angry.

Additionally, Qingbao noticed a detail.

Whenever Jiang Nian turns to talk to Li Qingrong during group discussions, Zhang Ningzhi will pretend to turn her head and glance over.

After class, Qingbao returns to the office.

While grading papers and feeling bored, she couldn't help but chuckle at the student observation notes she had taken.

Ah, youth is truly wonderful.

During the small study session in the afternoon, more than half of the class went to the sports field to cheer for Tao Ran's team in the balloon-stomping competition.

Jiang Nian also went.

He stood at a distance, not joining in the fun. Within moments, four or five people came to talk to him, and shortly thereafter, he was caught up in the mix.

Suddenly, there was noise from outside the crowd.

Ji Ming and Old Liu, cosplaying as Yang Guo, were surrounding a leader, inspecting the competition on the field.

Beside them was a student union member dressed up, holding a DSLR camera for filming.

"Vice Principal Gao, these are our classmates from Science Zero Class," Ji Ming introduced, gesturing to the boys and girls competing on the field.

Xu Shuang didn't participate; he went home to hit the punching bag.

Must've had a hot hand.

"Hmm," Vice Principal Gao nodded, turning to Old Liu, "Where are the students from Olympic Competition Class Three?"

"Over there, it's almost over now," Old Liu swiftly replied.

Tao Ran's team was somewhat weak in terms of physical strength, indeed at a disadvantage, and was ready to leave.

Old Liu couldn't help but regret; had he known Vice Principal Gao would inspect, he would've simply let Liu Yang and the others come out.

Hake Liu, you really are something! (Husky as a human reference)

"Oh," Vice Principal Gao wasn't actually concerned, casually adding, "Isn't Jiang Nian from your class participating?"

"Jiang Nian, he..." Old Liu scanned the crowd and found Jiang Nian crouched in the stands, watching the competition.

Holding his phone, without any poise.

"He's not here, probably in his classroom doing homework. After the mock exam, he secretly told me he wants to aim for 700 points."

Upon hearing this, Ji Ming was stunned.

"Really?"

If a few students get into Qingbei this year, he could claim quite a bit of credit, besides Old Liu and the others, he would deserve the most.

"Oh?" Vice Principal Gao was also somewhat surprised.

"Indeed, Jiang Nian has always been strict with himself," Old Liu randomly fabricated, glancing over.

Jiang Nian was chatting with Zhang Ningzhi and the others, drinking some water, and Zhang Ningzhi playfully punched him a few times.

Old Liu: "...."

On the other hand, Jiang Nian was unaware of the pressure, mysteriously aiming for 700 points.

You could say it doesn't feel human.

.....

After school in the afternoon.

Jiang Nian tried to invite Li Qingrong out, and indeed they went for a meal; as always, they went out for a meal without paying.

"Boss, the rice is a bit too soft today," Jiang Nian remarked.

The boss awkwardly smiled, "Apologies, added too much water today, I'll send you a plate of peanuts."

"Alright." Jiang Nian agreed.

Li Qingrong had a small appetite, finished eating, then watched Jiang Nian eat.

"Are you going home for Qingming?"

"Not sure, probably not," Jiang Nian replied, "Time is too short, my parents will return to their hometown."

Xiao Longtan Village is too far, a round trip takes four hours.

My aunt's memorial day has passed, you can't be sad twice in a year, even the strongest people couldn't bear that.

In past years, Xu Qianqian would certainly be in a bad mood.

But this year, Xiao Song is around.

"Okay." Li Qingrong nodded and looked at Jiang Nian, who was wolfing down food, "For Qingming, my sister is going back for ancestral veneration."

In other words, she won't be around.

"Oh, that's nice," Jiang Nian casually asked, "So you're not going?"

Li Qingrong shook her head, "Not going."

The rest of the plan was easy to settle. The two agreed to meet at home, but didn't decide what to do yet.

After all, the first step to hanging out is just to get out.

In Jiang Nian's plan, since Li Qingrong isn't sleeping in, they'd meet in the morning and afternoon, play some ball or video games.

The lazy bunch like Xu Qianqian typically wake up in the afternoon. After lingering a bit, it's almost evening.

So they plan to meet at night, go out to the supermarket.

If the afternoon is free, he could even chat with Zhizhi. By evening, the day would be quite fulfilling and not too tiring.

The night was deep; after dinner, the two walked along the path back to school.

"Qingqing."

"Hmm."

"I've actually been wanting to know something," Jiang Nian said, looking at the dimly lit road, feeling a bit conflicted.

"What is it?" Li Qingrong glanced at him.

Jiang Nian hesitated for a while, eventually asking, "Uh... just curious, why did your sister accompany you to take the college entrance exam?"

Li Qingrong didn't answer, remaining silent.

"Afraid she wouldn't return?"

Jiang Nian: "....."

What? Where did this come from? Could Qingqing see that he likes the older sister type?

Qingqing's insight is sharp!

"No, just curious," Jiang Nian felt a bit embarrassed, "Your sister purposely came back, as if afraid you'd run away."

"Hmm," Li Qingrong walked forward, "I mentioned you to her earlier, afraid I wouldn't apply to a university in Beijing."

"Oh, huh?" Jiang Nian was stunned for a moment, feeling there was a lot of information, and digested it before asking.

"When did you mention it?"

Li Qingrong: "Last semester."

Jiang Nian felt speechless for a moment, touched yet somewhat uneasy, like something had been added to his burden.

In no time, it was evening study session.

Jiang Nian was writing on his test paper when Old Liu called him. Learning that he aimed for 700 points, he was startled.

In the corridor, his expression was hard to maintain.

"Teacher, you..."

"Keep it up," Old Liu used his unharmed right hand to pat his shoulder, "The teachers will all support you."

Jiang Nian: "???"

"But, this..." he complained, "Teacher, how will I find those twenty points in physics?"

Old Liu also seemed embarrassed, hesitating then gritting his teeth to speak.

"Here's the thing, I'll go discuss with Vice Principal Gao. Let's see if we can help you get some resources."

With benefits mentioned, Jiang Nian raised his eyebrows.

"What resources?"

Old Liu checked both ends of the corridor, then whispered.

"One-on-one."

....

"byd, you've been laughing for an entire study session," Li Hua couldn't bear it, "What the hell did you do again?"

"Nothing much, heard next month is the school anniversary," Jiang Nian changed the topic, "Your dad might be on TV."

"Chi Shi!!"

"Why would I lie? I mention you a couple more times," he said, "Hua, you might benefit from your father's fame."

Li Hua looked peeved, "Old Liu is biased, how come my handsome looks don't make me famous?"

Jiang Nian laughed, "You do have a bit of fame locally."

"Chi Shi Chi Shi!!" Li Hua flushed, "Thirty years on the east of the river, thirty years on the west, you just wait."

After speaking, he hugged his vocabulary book and began cramming.

"Hey," Zhang Ningzhi adorably leaned over, pursing her lips to ask, "Are you really going on TV?"

"Yep, do you want to be on camera?" Jiang Nian asked.

"No!" Zhang Ningzhi instinctively refused, "Which channel can I watch you on, I'll keep an eye out."

"Oh, that," Jiang Nian thought for a bit, "Take the bus to Zhennan Square, on that big screen."

Zhang Ningzhi: "???"

"Local channel, you won't find it," Jiang Nian said, "Growing up, I just learned Zhennan has a TV station."

"Alright then." Zhang Ningzhi pouted.

Jiang Nian smiled broadly, but it wasn't the school anniversary that amused him, rather the one-on-one teaching.

Although Old Liu is a bit quirky, nicknamed Old Unpredictable, he's trustworthy; his words are pretty accurate.

Yes! One-on-one with a loli.

Of course, Jiang Nian isn't a loli-enthusiast.

After all, nowadays there's effective medicine for treating loli-enthusiasts, 7.62mm, directly administered to the head.

Nonetheless, he's looking forward to Zhu Yin's one-on-one. As a loose cultivator joining the sect, he won't have to brave the rain at the entrance anymore.

As he was feeling happy, a message from the sponsor came through on his phone.

"Heading to the sports field?"
