Divorce Revenge System: Knowing the Future in Advance-Chapter 1029 - 725: Human Touch
Jiang Nian's mindset is actually pretty good, it's just that the waiting is too agonizing. Restlessness is unavoidable, but nothing has gone wrong.
The people in the group aren't surprised, they just think he's under heavy academic pressure.
Seven hundred points, enough to make one's brain go blank.
In others' eyes, especially those paying attention to Jiang Nian, you can see some clues.
"Why aren't you eating?" she asked back.
Playing the pity card.
Unfortunately, no one came to buy it, and even if they did, they might not go for it.
Even though Jiang Nian had thick skin, he was embarrassed to tell the truth. He had to casually make up a reason and brush it off.
"Why are you asking so many questions?"
"I... was just asking." Yu Zhiyi got a bit upset, took a deep breath, and pressed her hand against her chest.
She pressed so hard that it left a dent. A second later, she returned to her expressionless calm.
She's amazing, accustomed to managing her mood. She's learned to adjust herself freely and keep her emotions in check.
"Forget it, I'm going to eat."
The sound of footsteps faded away, followed by the sound of a table flipping. The footsteps came back, passing by.
"Ha, who cares about you."
Yu Zhiyi finished speaking and walked away like a proud swan, holding her meal card.
"Starve then!"
When she finished saying this, she felt a bit satisfied. But when she reached the stairwell, she wasn't happy anymore.
Why did I come back?
Forgot...
Jiang Nian was unmoved by this; the care was cold. In this world, only money and pretty girls are warm.
However, he hasn't fully obtained either of these.
"Ugh, let's eat first,"
Before lunch break.
After coming back from the cafeteria, Jiang Nian thought things through. He stopped wearing a stern face and returned to his usual self.
Some things, once experienced, become much easier to handle.
Today is Tuesday, Chen Yunyun and the others don't have to wash their hair. The two girls returned to the classroom early, just as it started raining.
They simply moved two chairs to the corridor.
The drizzle was slightly cold, bringing a hint of chill.
Wang Yuhe was eating a small pudding, sucking on it from time to time. Her body was strong enough to not worry about a stomach ache.
"You're here, huh?"
"Why do you talk like an old man?" Jiang Nian stood beside her, "So old-fashioned."
"Because the popsicle is too cold, my brain is frozen." Wang Yuhe pointed to the popsicle in her hand.
"You dare eat ice in this weather?"
"It's April, it's not that cold," Jiang Nian replied, "Eating ice isn't a big deal, adding chili is where it gets impressive."
Right after saying this, his arm was lightly slapped.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Chen Yunyun was a bit displeased, giving him a look, "Eating ice and spicy stuff will give you diarrhea."
Wang Yuhe thought for a moment, looking at them and said.
"I won't get diarrhea."
Jiang Nian gave her a thumbs up, smiling cheekily.
"Good health."
Because of this one sentence, Chen Yunyun rolled her eyes at him again, and he had to retract his tempting words.
"Alright, I was kidding."
"I knew it!" Wang Yuhe's eyes widened, she actually wanted to say she used to eat spicy strips and ice cream at the same time.
And didn't get diarrhea.
But in front of Chen Yunyun, she held back a bit, to avoid being caught if she did it next time.
"You don't know..." Jiang Nian hesitated, clapped his hands, preparing to leave, "I'm going to take a leak."
He thought for a moment, looked at Chen Yunyun.
"Are you going?"
Chen Yunyun hesitated for a moment, nodded and followed.
"Mm."
Wang Yuhe lazily leaned half her body on the back of the chair, watching the two leave together, licking her little pudding bit by bit.
.....
"What are your plans for Qingming?"
In the quiet corridor, the two walked side by side. They were quite close, but on closer inspection, there was some space between them.
"Only one day off, might stay in school to study." Chen Yunyun's voice was calm, her eyes glanced at someone.
"Get back what I lost in the first mock exam in the second."
Actually, her Chinese exam score was good, tallying up the total, it wasn't bad, but she felt it was low.
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself." Jiang Nian walked past a corner, "Things like this can't be rushed."
"Mm."
In the end, he didn't know how to comfort her. Academic problems were easy to solve, mindset was entirely personal.
After relieving himself, Jiang Nian stood in the corridor waiting.
He looked at the rain that continued to fall, wondering if these exams would really leave a shadow on Chen Yunyun.
But, is the pressure really necessary for her?
College entrance exam... college entrance exam...
Soon, Chen Yunyun came out of the restroom. She washed her hands with a splash and stood next to Jiang Nian.
"What are you... watching?"
"Watching the rain."
After Jiang Nian finished speaking, he turned to look at her, "What did you mean when you said sorry the afternoon before yesterday?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yunyun's cheeks instantly turned red.
"N-nothing."
"Hmm?"
"Just... said it casually." Chen Yunyun's face turned red to the roots of her ears, "The pressure was a bit much, and then..."
"My state unintentionally affected you, so... I felt a bit sorry."
"It really did," Jiang Nian nodded, "I worried about you, afraid you'd have negative thoughts or something."
"Negative thoughts?" Chen Yunyun was confused.
"Mental block."
"Oh oh, I see." She nodded blankly, feeling the conversation was a bit silly, she simply stopped talking.
The rain fell silently, becoming more intense.
The two returned to the classroom just as the lunch break bell rang. Chen Yunyun returned to her seat, picked up her pen to write exercises.
Still feeling a bit bothered, unintentionally recalling moments of embrace.
Every inch of skin, muscle, bone, the invading scents, the blank, overwhelming feeling.
With a clatter, she put down her pen.
Chen Yunyun propped up her chin, looking out the window, unconsciously thinking about the future, pondering for a while, still with no clue.
