The remaining firewood in the stove emits residual warmth.

Under the energy-saving lamp, Jiang Ning slowly savors as he peels shrimp shells, while Tongtong and Chen Siyu talk as if they were strategic opponents, discussing the world.

"I heard in my youth that there were other people’s children with exceptional talent, becoming the first in their class at age seven, unmatched."

Chen Siyu: "And then?"

Tongtong: "Later, I made a little effort, and I’ve been the first since."

Chen Siyu clicked her tongue: "Doesn’t that make you the legendary child from other families?"

Chen Siqing: "Being your opponent must be tough."

Xue Chuchu suddenly interjected: "Not tough."

Chen Siyu refuted: "Definitely impossible, because my parents often use other people’s children to motivate me, I really hate such people!"

She had a hundred reasons to refute Chuchu’s statement!

Xue Chuchu: "I’m the original failed child from those other families."

The twins stopped talking.

"Chuchu, eat shrimp." Tongtong, feeling suddenly generous, peeled one for her.

Chen Siyu ate a bun, once again praised: "So delicious."

Then she asked: "Do you know, what can be eaten without oil or salt, and still not get tired of eating after more than ten years?"

Chen Siqing thought: ’Sis, are you showing off your experiences?’

Xue Yuantong scoffed: "What’s difficult about that? Isn’t it just a bun?"

Chen Siyu shook her head: "Indeed, you are unaffected by oil and salt."

After dinner, it was already past eight.

A few people strolled for a while in the empty space in front of the door, but unfortunately, Black Slave Dongdong started school, and Little Black Slave Xingxing also started school, so there were no oxen or horses pulling carts.

Tongtong and Chuchu were busy selling fish in the afternoon, so they went to shower first, leaving only the twins in Jiang Ning’s small room, peeking at him adjusting the game console.

A lone man with two women, sharing a room.

The two exchanged a glance, and some notion quietly emerged.

This morning’s humiliation from Geng Lu left them feeling deeply ashamed; not avenging such a wrong would be a disservice to their extensive, strong connotations.

At this moment, Tongtong was showering next door, a heaven-sent opportunity not to be missed!

’Using sis as bait, who can guard against that!’

’Geng Lu, pay for your arrogance!’

Chen Siyu shouted inwardly, then directed her sister to turn off the light.

Chen Siqing acted decisively, hit the button, and the bright room instantly turned pitch black.

The world fell silent.

But in Chen Siyu’s eyes, sharp glimmers burst forth, the hunting moment begun!

Jiang Ning stopped his actions: "Power outage?"

In the dark, he pretended to light his phone.

Chen Siyu exclaimed: "Don’t turn on the light, I’m my sister!"

Jiang Ning: "What’s wrong?"

"Her sister got a flash in her eyes; no lights allowed." Chen Siyu made up a reason.

Listening to this faulty excuse, Jiang Ning was momentarily speechless.

Yet, it was quite effective.

He pondered it and asked: "Then what about the sister?"

Chen Siyu said without thinking: "Do you know hypnosis? Her sister needs your rescue!"

Jiang Ning: "I understand, whose sister is she?"

Chen Siyu resented his stupidity, quickly explaining: "She’s my sister, it’s me!"

Chen Siqing couldn’t hold back, mouth agape, uttering "Abba Abba."

Jiang Ning suddenly understood: "Yes, truly a significant illness."

"Indeed, she needs your awakening!"

Jiang Ning deliberately said: "No problem, I have a technique that can make her collapse both mentally and physically."

Chen Siyu clenched her thighs, internally praying for her sister, realizing Jiang Ning was unexpectedly this type of person!

Underestimated you!

She trembled as she said: "But don’t go too wild~"

The next second, a beam of light shone in the darkness; Jiang Ning had turned on the phone flashlight.

Chen Siqing anticipated the upcoming fate, feeling extreme fear.

Yet, the more scared, the stronger she must be; facing the beam, Chen Siqing showed a ’scornful face,’ although she clearly didn’t speak, it felt like she did.

Chen Siyu clenched her hand secretly: ’Good, good, it’s this superiority, making one want to disgrace harshly, no man can resist!’

’Come on, Jiang Ning, torture her fiercely!’ She couldn’t wait anymore.

Jiang Ning moved, he picked up a paper from the desk: "Now supervising your math exam."

Chen Siqing’s expression turned blank.

Chen Siyu was dumbfounded: ’Huh?’

Afterwards.

Chen Siyu messaged Geng Lu and Bai Yuxia: "Jiang Ning has already tortured my sister to near collapse; his methods are simply too brutal."

Geng Lu: "Tutoring you guys, I assume."

Bai Yuxia asked quite purely: "What are you doing??"

Two minutes later, Bai Yuxia pressed, "Why aren’t you talking?"

...

On Sunday afternoon, Jiang Ning was cycling Tongtong to school.

The river dam was still bustling with activity. Someone saw the two of them and asked, "No fish today?"

Jiang Ning: "School starts today, a five-day break."

The customer was puzzled: "You’re still students?"

Xue Yuantong: "Part-time students."

After leaving the noisy section of the road, pedestrians thinned out, and the afternoon breeze blew Tongtong’s bangs into a disarray.

"Jiang Ning, we have a new classmate today," Tongtong remarked.

Jiang Ning: "Now there are six empty seats."

"Why would they agree to come to a new school? If it were me, I definitely wouldn’t want to transfer and meet all new classmates."

Jiang Ning: "Even if you transferred, new classmates would have nothing to do with you, since you’re always sleeping wherever you go."

Xue Yuantong instinctively wanted to retort.

That’s not true, back in middle school, she didn’t dare to sleep at all!

But then she thought, the reason she dared to sleep in high school was because of Jiang Ning, and she lost the confidence to argue.

The bike rode to the intersection of the river dam and Nanhong Road, a black Mercedes-Benz appeared, the car slowed slightly, and the window rolled down.

The shy Shang Caiwei waved from inside the car, "Xue Yuantong, Jiang Ning!"

Xue Yuantong initiated an invitation, "Caiwei, wanna race?"

Shang Caiwei quickly refused, "No, no Jiang."

Xue Yuantong smiled triumphantly.

Jiang Ning’s Divine Sense skimmed over her expression, thinking she might be small but is excellent at playful racing.

The driver, Shang Zhengyu, said coldly, "Why refuse?"

Though it’s a modest Mercedes, it’s a 3.0T at least, can’t outrun an electric bike?

Last time it couldn’t because the ground was icy, but there’s no rain this time.

Shang Caiwei complained, "Brother, why are you still so competitive like before?"

Shang Zhengyu immediately conceded, "Alright, alright, I absolutely won’t next time."

He had to drive normally, and Jiang Ning was leisurely riding down the non-motorized lane.

Shang Zhengyu knew it was most important to send his sister to school, so he didn’t drive competitively, or change lanes to overtake. Suddenly, a young child darted out of the greenery to the side.

Shang Zhengyu slammed on the brakes, barely stopping in time. The child glanced back at the car and ran away laughing.

Shang Zhengyu was furious and cursed inside the car.

This kind of unpredictable dash-out is extremely dangerous, and even he can’t do anything about a child.

The child stopped another two cars and successfully dashed across to the non-motorized lane, and ran headlong into Jiang Ning’s approaching electric bike.

The next second, the front of the electric bike hit the child, "Bang!" sending him flying, rolling several times on the concrete.

Xue Yuantong was shocked, "Jiang Ning, why didn’t you dodge?"

Jiang Ning calmly replied, "No worries, kids have tough skin and are resilient to crashes."

The child lay on the concrete, crying loudly, his arms and legs scraped, looking quite miserable.

Jiang Ning didn’t even glance, leisurely riding away on the electric bike.

On the motorized lane, Shang Zhengyu witnessed the scene, a little taken aback, "Did he just leave like that?"

The point is he left so confidently and without a trace of hesitation; not even hitting a dog should be this calm.

"Weiwei, your classmate is a hit-and-run offender." Shang Zhengyu turned to his sister, "At the very least, he’d lose his license."

Shang Caiwei: "No, Jiang Ning doesn’t even have a license."

Shang Zhengyu paused, and it turned out to be true...

He continued, "He’ll be caught for sure."

Shang Caiwei looked out the car window, "Look at that kid, he’s already gotten up; he should be alright, right?"

Shang Zhengyu: "There’s traffic police."

"The kid will probably say he fell by himself when he gets home." Shang Caiwei said this.

Shang Zhengyu thought for a moment, it seemed reasonable, unless a witness reports it, but how could he report it?

"Invincible."

Shang Zhengyu stepped on the gas and continued driving, realizing after all these years of striving, in some ways, he’s not as carefree as his younger days.

After dropping his sister off at Fourth Middle School’s intersection, Shang Zhengyu continued driving to the ’Boundless Fighting’ sign.

Once he parked, he walked straight into the club.

The girl at the front desk immediately put down her bubble tea straw, with the sweetest smile, warmly greeting, "Brother Yu! You’re here, just leave your card here!"

Shang Zhengyu, dressed in black, the fabric tailored with a high-end cut, exuded a stern demeanor, driving a Mercedes S, totally exuding CEO vibes.

The front desk girl couldn’t help but fantasize, if the CEO and the little puppy Dong Qingfeng were both pursuing her, who would she choose?

Just the thought made her heart race with joy.

Unfortunately, Shang Zhengyu wasn’t interested in ordinary women, "Where’s your boss?"

As he spoke, a burly man came out to greet him, enthusiastically saying, "President Shang, you’re here, ready for some real combat today?"

Shang Zhengyu: "Yeah."

Meanwhile, Dong Qingfeng came over to the front desk, "Get me a bottle of water."

The burly man said, "Qingfeng, don’t you want to fight in real combat? Watch me and President Shang go head-to-head later!"
