Chapter 1205: Chapter 813: College Entrance Exam

Last study session.

The teacher’s not here.

Suddenly, Liu Yang stood up, suggesting we take a class photo together. This was quickly met with enthusiasm from everyone.

Spontaneously, everyone lined up, some squatting, some standing.

"Squeeze in."

"Wang Yuhe move a bit; you’re blocking Zeng You."

"Oh, oh."

Zeng You couldn’t hold it in, "Come on, Wang Yuhe, you’re so tall, why are you wearing platform shoes?"

"These are sneakers!" Wang Yuhe protested, "They came this high when I bought them!"

"Fine, I’ll change spots." Zeng You was uninterested in the photo, but the contrast was too strong.

Many others were dissatisfied and began shifting spots repeatedly.

Li Hua originally thought about linking arms with Jiang Nian for a photo. But after a glance, he hesitated.

"Whoa, class president, Zhang Ningzhi?"

"Forget him." The big guy waved his hand, pulling Liu Yang over, "That jerk won’t survive long."

Li Hua thought the same and even felt a bit sympathetic towards Jiang Nian.

"Come on, let’s take the photo."

On the other side, Sun Zhicheng stood with a blank expression, contrasting with the cheerful Lin Dong beside him.

"Ah Cheng, why aren’t you smiling?"

"I can’t smile."

Lin Dong was speechless, "Ah Cheng, come on, it’s so early, and you’re already down."

"Just leave me be."

"Fine."

Suddenly, Yu Zhiyi drifted nearby, attracting Sun Zhicheng’s attention. His heart started racing.

No way.

He glanced beside himself; there was an open spot. Maybe, on this last day.....something unexpected might happen.

Maybe, he’d replay this day in his mind.

Sun Zhicheng thought it over and mustered the courage to speak, "Ahem, seems like there’s no room over there."

Yu Zhiyi turned back and glanced at him.

"Oh oh, I’ll check the back."

Sun Zhicheng: "..."

Forget reminiscing!

Yu Zhiyi wasn’t feeling great either and moved closer, only to find no room. Jiang Nian was already surrounded.

No hope, it’s annoying.

Jiang Nian was struggling too; with Li Qingrong on his left and an irate Zhang Ningzhi on his right, he dared not move.

Don’t mess with me, the finals are tomorrow.

Give me a break!

Yet, he wasn’t entirely helpless; he just needed to make some sacrifices, sacrificing his adopted son.

Wait, where’s Li Hua?

Luckily, on the podium, Tao Ran raised his phone, "Alright, don’t move; we’re ready to shoot."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yang suddenly yelled.

"Aren’t you joining the photo?"

Tao Ran put down the phone, "Then no one’s there to take it."

"I’ll find someone." Jiang Nian saw an opportunity and quickly retreated, "Qingbao is in the neighboring class."

"How do you know?" Liu Yang questioned.

Li Hua, gritting his teeth, "Because that scoundrel was chatting with the biology teacher on WeChat just five minutes ago."

With a whoosh, half the class looked at Jiang Nian.

"Such a punk!"

"How did we forget, there’s no Aruba here!"

"Qingbao, my Qingbao....waa waa waa."

After a while.

"Are you guys taking a photo?" Qingbao, a bit embarrassed, was pulled in for photography duty but suddenly felt like snapping one too.

"Teacher, join us!"

"Yeah, yeah!"

"But we originally asked the teacher to be the photographer. If you join, who’s going to shoot it?"

"Li Hua!!"

"Chi Shi!!" Li Hua turned to find the piercing voice, but couldn’t spot the caller.

Darn, it must be that rat Jiang Nian!

Thinking so, he eagerly squeezed next to Qingbao, "Teacher, I’ll find someone in the next class to take it."

Qingbao hesitated, "That’s.....not really proper."

"No worries, Teacher, stand with me." Li Hua said courteously, "Jiang Nian’s side is packed."

Qingbao: "???"

After a bit of scrounging, Li Hua really pulled someone over. Standing on Class Three’s podium, they awkwardly raised the phone.

Moreover, they switched off the back row’s lights.

"Um.....ready."

"Three.....two....."

"Cheese!!"

....

Back home, Jiang Nian looked at the photo on his phone. When the photo was taken, two eyes were facing him.

"Sigh."

He tossed the phone aside, landing softly on the bed with a thud.

The finals, avoiding life or death.

What happens after the exams?

He sat at his bedroom desk, swaying his legs for a bit and reached a conclusion.

The situation isn’t great, and he’s not entirely safe.

Forget it, don’t think about it for now.

He got up, grabbing his clothes, ready to head out for a shower. Entering the living room, he saw his parents sitting on the sofa.

"Hmm?"

"What are you guys doing?"

"Well....." Old Jiang spoke calmly, rising, "Your mom wants to ask if you want anything to eat?"

"Not hungry."

"Oh, do you want a drink?" Ms. Li asked, "There’s fruit in the fridge, don’t pick anything too cold."

Jiang Nian: "....I’ve got hands."

He looked around; luckily, he didn’t spot any cheongsams. In small towns, few parents wore them.

"Okay, stop worrying unnecessarily. I scored seven hundred points, can go to college with eyes closed."

"Go rest, just keep an eye on Xu Qianqian and the others."

Li Hongmei: "The others?"

She frowned instinctively but then relaxed. Her thoughts turned to tomorrow’s finals and softly she replied.

"Alright then, you rest well."

Jiang Nian seemed to hear a molar being crushed, reasonably suspecting it was a hallucination - who could have such bite force?

Tyrannosaurus rex?

They’ve long been extinct, can’t be a tiger.

Anyway, he picked up his frequently worn clothes. Took a delightful shower, feeling light as a feather afterward.

Before the finals, maintain the usual habits.

Old clothes, a half-written pen. Li Hua’s eraser, Ma Guojun’s ruler, Liu Yang’s lotus.

Wait, when did he take it?

Forget it, doesn’t matter.

Lying in bed, he found it hard to sleep. Naturally, he wanted to ask Xu Qianqian if she was asleep.
