Divorce Revenge System: Knowing the Future in Advance-Chapter 1043 - 732: No Longer Clean

Zhang Ningzhi froze, her face instantly turning pale. A word got stuck in her throat and she stammered it out.

"Mom....."

Mrs. Zhang, with a graceful and elegant figure, sporting big waves in her hair, carrying an LV bag and wearing high heels.

At this moment, a crease formed between her brows.

"You guys....."

Jiang Nian glanced at Mrs. Zhang, showing little reaction, "Good evening, Auntie."

Mrs. Zhang averted her gaze, her eyes somewhat bland.

"Mm."

Zhang Ningzhi's shoulders began to tremble, afraid her mother might say something unbearable.

"Mom, I....."

"Where did you go?" Mrs. Zhang looked at her daughter, also covering Jiang Nian with her gaze.

Jiang Nian remained calm, turning to see Zhang Ningzhi looking nervous.

"We just went for a walk."

The atmosphere became tense, Zhang Ningzhi stayed silent as if in shock. Mrs. Zhang, with a serious expression, tightly pursed her lips, staring at them.

"The college entrance exam is coming soon," Mrs. Zhang frowned but remained rational, "Zhizhi's grades aren't as good as yours."

"If you put in more effort, you can get into a better school. What about Zhizhi? Girls are more easily influenced."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ningzhi's face turned pale. Her tightly clenched hands squeezed even harder, her nails digging into her flesh.

"Mom, please stop."

"Okay, I won't say anything excessive," Mrs. Zhang said, "But it's just two months, after all....."

"Can't you even wait for two months? The college entrance exam is really important. If she messes up, who will be responsible?"

Zhang Ningzhi was displeased, "Mom, what are you talking about!"

With that, she forcefully pulled Mrs. Zhang into the community. In a hurry, she glanced back at Jiang Nian.

Her eyes were a bit panicked, and a bit remorseful.

Jiang Nian waved with a smile, not really caring about what Mrs. Zhang said. After all, nothing much happened, and there wasn't even a romantic discussion.

It's normal interaction between friends.

No guilt in this part.

He drove the car back to Boya District, and as soon as he got out of the car, he received messages from Zhang Ningzhi, over a dozen of them.

"I'm sorry, (hands clasped), my mom said something excessive, she's not usually like this."

Jiang Nian was walking out, casually replying.

"It's okay."

He didn't mean to reply like that; there were many cars on the road outside the West Gate, with blaring horns everywhere.

When he circled back to the main gate, there were already ten more messages and several missed video calls.

Jiang Nian habitually kept his phone on silent and called back when he saw them.

"Hmm?"

Zhang Ningzhi pursed her lips, her face displaying a wronged expression. She also appeared guilty, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.

"I'm sorry."

Jiang Nian shook his head, thought for a moment, and said, "It's my fault for taking you out at this time of night."

"It's not your fault, it's because I dragged it out too long." Zhang Ningzhi felt more guilty, lowered her head, looking regretful.

"And..... what your mom said makes sense, it's just two months after all." He said calmly.

"Huh?" Zhang Ningzhi was stunned.

On the video call.

Jiang Nian looked at Zhizhi on the screen, reflecting, "My grades are stable, I didn't consider your pressure."

"You should also settle down, so your mom won't worry."

Just as he finished speaking, he realized that on the other end of the video, Zhang Ningzhi's eyes were red, tears welling up.

"What's wrong?"

Zhang Ningzhi held back her tears, looking at him expectantly, "It's not your fault, please don't stop hanging out with me."

Jiang Nian smiled and explained.

"I'm not stopping hanging out with you, just won't take you out temporarily. In class, things will remain the same."

Zhang Ningzhi bit her lip, her mind in a bit of a mess.

"But still, you're not taking me....."

"It's just a temporary thing, so your parents won't worry," Jiang Nian said, "After the entrance exams, I'll take you out to have fun again."

"Really?" Zhang Ningzhi tilted her head slightly, staring at the phone screen, "You're not lying to me."

"Mm."

They continued talking until Jiang Nian entered the alley, then he found an excuse to hang up the video call.

To be honest, there's really no solution to this.

...

The next day.

On Friday, Jiang Nian got up early as usual. He glanced at the mirror while freshening up, splashed cold water on his face, and left.

Qianqian was calmed down, and the class monitor was coaxed back. As for his own 'execution,' it's postponed to the summer.

Not much else to say but to just live on.

Further developments with Zhizhi came as a surprise, but greater resistance isn't entirely a bad thing.

Perhaps... it might be a good thing.

But to be honest, Zhang Ningzhi's mother is truly beautiful. Those filthy rich people, monopolizing all the resources.

During recess.

Yao Beibei dragged Zhang Ningzhi to skip the jogging, the two girls wandering in the small forest, and she couldn't help but exclaim.

"Caught during a date?"

"It wasn't a date..." Zhang Ningzhi blushed, her voice growing weaker, "We just went out to play."

"Isn't that a date!" Yao Beibei, hearing that, felt a bit speechless, unable to stand these ambiguous couples.

However, she wasn't envious.

Only Zhizhi would like a carousel and taking pictures; she herself preferred the skating rink.

"Oh well, after all....." Zhang Ningzhi's face heated up, then her mood dropped, "I can't go out and play anymore."

"It's not so bad, just two months." Yao Beibei said, "Besides, isn't there a group excursion next week?"

"It's a school-organized event, your mom can't interfere. Though it's not a date, it can still quench your thirst."

Hearing this, Zhang Ningzhi's face reddened even more, "What do you mean quench your thirst? You're making me sound like....."

Yao Beibei didn't mind and continued, "But speaking of which, guys really can't handle that."

"What?"

"Being lectured by the other person's parents," she pondered, "If it were me, I'd surely keep recalling it."

"Huh?" Zhang Ningzhi panicked, grabbing Yao Beibei's hand, "Then.....then what do I do?"

"Don't worry, I meant me." She said, "Jiang Nian is thick-skinned; he probably didn't take it to heart at all."
