"No wonder Brother Jiang told us to retreat earlier. Luckily, the fatty was quick-witted, otherwise, we would have missed a spectacle of a lifetime!"
The four of them were more shocked than they were entertained by the drama.
Damn, who was that?!
Jiang Ran!
That person was Jiang Ran!!
Jiang Ran actually gave candy to a girl?
Holy crap!
The likelihood of gold falling from the sky is bigger than this, right?!
"Hey, what do you guys think... When did this happen? How come we didn't know?!"
As they spoke, the three boys collectively turned towards Jiang Ran's best buddy, Cheng Xingyang.
Cheng Xingyang looked at the interrogative glances from these three misfit friends, and he raised his hands
"I don't know anything. He never mentioned it."
He said with an honest face.
One of them couldn't help but say
"No way, this is just too intriguing. Why don't... we send someone to get close to Brother Jiang and find out?"
As soon as the words were out, the three boys' gazes landed on Cheng Xingyang again.
Cheng Xingyang rolled his eyes and sat down on the ground brazenly
"Are you guys trying to get me killed? With Jiang Ran's temper, do you dare to provoke him?"
The three exchanged glances, and one of them said
"You're different, aren't you? You're brothers who've grown up with Brother Jiang. Even if he wanted to kill you, he'd at least spare you, given your shared past."
After saying this, one of them took out two red banknotes and slapped them on the ground
"Xingyang, we respect you as a man. Whether you get the answer or not, just for daring to ask, this money is yours."
Cheng Xingyang kicked the guy's leg and snapped
"Get lost!"
He wasn't desperate enough to risk his life for money.
After the laughter and banter ended, the four of them watched Jiang Ran walk away and couldn't resist glancing at the girl again.
Because of the distance, and with the girl always keeping her head down, they couldn't clearly see her face.
"Hey, do you guys think this girl is as pretty as the school beauty?"
"Isn't that a stupid question? If she were as pretty as the school beauty, then the school beauty wouldn't be the school beauty anymore, right?"
"By the way, our school beauty has it all – looks, figure, great grades, a level ten pianist, and most importantly, she's genuinely into Brother Jiang. With an opportunity like this, why doesn't Brother Jiang ever pay attention to her?"
"Do you think Jiang Ran lacks girls who like him??"
Cheng Xingyang gave a disdainful look, stood up, and kicked
"Let's go. If Brother Jiang finds us here later, we'd be done for."
The people by the corner dispersed.
The two main characters of the story being discussed naturally knew nothing about it.
The class bell rang.
The teacher walked out of the classroom without giving Su Yan a glance, heading straight for the office.
The original person was decent at academics but had a timid personality and was somewhat self-conscious, which made them seem gloomy, and thus not very likeable to the teacher.
Su Yan didn't say anything and walked back to the classroom.
She sat back down at her seat.
The original person had no friends and only knew how to study, which Su Yan could quite adapt to.
She had been standing outside for a whole class, and her body couldn't take it anymore.
She licked the corner of her lips, which were a bit pale.
She glanced at the black tie on her arm and took it off.
The wound had stopped bleeding.
And it didn't look too serious, so she stuffed the tie into her backpack.
