Divorce Revenge System: Knowing the Future in Advance-Chapter 1074 - 747: After School Series (2)

Jiang Nian laughed as he took his school uniform out of the closet. He couldn't find the school badge, and he couldn't be bothered to care.

The morning passed in a flash.

A group of people suddenly appeared on the fourth floor; the student union was checking each student's uniform and badge, and those without them would have their names taken.

"What the heck? They're serious!"

"I brought mine, hehe."

"Damn it!"

"Can someone lend me theirs?"

Everyone acted like they didn't care, but when it came time for inspection, each one was more prepared than the last.

Zeng You saw this and swaggered right out the door.

"Wait up!!"

A boy from the student union stood at the classroom door and stopped him with his hand, "What's your name?"

"Why do you ask?"

"You're not wearing your uniform and you don't have your badge!" The boy pointed at Zeng You. "We need to take your name."

Upon hearing this, everyone in Class Three looked toward the door.

But Zeng You was calm and gave a dismissive laugh, "I'm on leave; I don't even need to be here, so why take my name?"

The student union boy was stunned on the spot.

"You…"

"Heh." Zeng You let out a cold laugh and strode away, "My name is Li Hua, remember it."

"Chi Shi!!"

...

At noon, there were inspections downstairs as well.

"Is the school taking this seriously?" Nie Qiqi poked at Soy Milk, "There's not even one leaf on the ground."

"Yeah." Cai Xiaoqing nodded, glancing at the school anniversary banner, "They probably won't come today."

After a while, Li Qingrong came down.

"Let's go."

The three of them walked out together, and Nie Qiqi asked, "Class president, why are you so slow today?"

Li Qingrong gave her a cold glance.

"Explaining questions."

"To whom?" Nie Qiqi regretted asking as soon as she did, "Why is it Jiang Nian again!"

She whined melodiously, but no one paid her any attention.

On the other side.

Jiang Nian packed up his homework and left via the other staircase. He exited the West Gate, planning to meet up with Tingzi.

The place to eat had a good location. It was at a bustling intersection with many noodle shops nearby.

"Over here!"

"Yo."

After sitting down, Zhou Yuting felt a bit awkward. Fortunately, it was lively around them, so it didn't feel like a cold meet-up.

"I..."

Jiang Nian picked up his chopsticks and interrupted with a smile, "Just say what's up, the West Gate will close after the lunch break."

Tingzi's intentions were not hard to guess.

Sure enough, Zhou Yuting cautiously started to explain. Her main point was that she couldn't seem to improve her total scores.

If she focused on one subject, another would go awry during the exam.

"Oh, I see." Jiang Nian wasn't surprised, "Your foundation isn't solid, and you're targeting the wrong area."

"So what should I do?"

"Retake the year."

Zhou Yuting: "...."

"Or, maybe lower your goals a bit." Jiang Nian glanced at her, "After all, there's not enough time."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuting bit her lower lip. Her brow furrowed, as if caught in a huge dilemma.

"I still want to give it a try."

Tingzi was still that same Tingzi, unwilling to give up.

Well.....

"If you can get a 630, you can try to push a bit more." Jiang Nian said, "Calculate the rest yourself."

After he finished speaking, the table fell into a long silence.

He didn't care much, focusing on his food while waiting for Zhou Yuting to figure things out or make a decision.

After all, this was all they could talk about over this meal.

Zhou Yuting fell into deep thought; Jiang Nian's few sentences shattered her fantasy but made practical sense.

Retake the year?

Perhaps a few months ago, she could have made that decision. But now that liberation was near, it was hard to say.

After a while, she started to speak with hesitation.

"You're right, I should stay grounded. These past months have been anxious, like I've been making no progress."

Jiang Nian was a bit surprised to hear that.

"It's not easy to say, just get the exams over with and choose your college. Try to bump up your score first; who knows, maybe things will turn around?"

Then he didn't say much more. He talked about some tricks for improving in each subject and was about to leave.

One meal, that's all there is to say.

If something is free, people often don't take it seriously. The point is to get the message across; no need to be overly detailed.

"I'm leaving first."

"Just… you're done eating?"

Zhou Yuting snapped out of her thoughts and looked up sharply. The meal was already paid for, but she hadn't eaten much.

Jiang Nian may not be honest, but he was certainly not shy about eating.

"Yeah, you can keep going." Jiang Nian wasn't about to eat it all; he left some for her.

"Hey, wait... hold on a moment." Zhou Yuting said, "If I have more questions later, can I ask you?"

Jiang Nian gave her a sidelong glance, "You can ask Tao Ran too."

"About the group leader..." Zhou Yuting said, "I won't ask every day and won't let you work for nothing."

With that, she placed her hand on her chest.

Jiang Nian leaned back reflexively, looking shocked. He thought, why the sudden change to a manga-like scene?

After-school series.

"Give you tutoring fees." Zhou Yuting said, pressing her hand downward, "Or some other compensation."

Oh, turns out it's about money.

Scared me for a second.

If it weren't for Xu Shuang, the rich lady, Jiang Nian might have hesitated for a moment; Tingzi had quite a lot of Gold Coins too.

Besides, their relationship was just so-so.

Taking Tingzi's Gold Coins didn't feel guilty.

"I'm also tutoring lately." Jiang Nian refused, "Time might be a bit tight."

Hearing this, Zhou Yuting didn't seem disappointed. After calming down, she seemed a bit embarrassed as well.

"Yeah, I was a bit… thoughtless just now."

Instead of saying she would go to Jiang Nian with questions, it was more like she was a drowning ant grasping at straws.

Not much practical meaning, purely for comfort.

"Mm."

After Jiang Nian left, Zhou Yuting sat alone at the table, staring blankly at the leftovers.

Though she didn't want to admit it, she couldn't help but think.

If it was before, he wouldn't have refused me, right? He would have at least made some trade for old times' sake.

Now, it seems like he doesn't care anymore.

....

The afternoon continued with high-intensity checks; the student union came frequently, inspecting cleanliness and checking the rate of students wearing their uniforms.

"Why aren't you in uniform, what's your name?"

"Has leadership arrived?"

"What does that have to do with anything?"

"Isn't it fine if I wear it when they come? Why the chatter?" Yang Qiming said unhappily, pulling out his uniform from the drawer.

"What's your name?"

"Buzz off!"

After a small conflict, another group from the student union rushed in and pulled the person away.

"Forgot to tell you, don't check this class."

"Why not?" The boy being pulled away was a bit agitated, "What kind of people are these!"

"They're untouchable."

The afternoon passed, and the rate of uniform wearing in Class Three was less than thirty percent. The class happily returned to normal.

Tutoring, self-study, orderly and routine.

Until the first evening self-study session ended, Cai Xiaoqing looked anxious and pulled Jiang Nian aside to a quiet place.

"Did they tell you?"

"Tell me what?"

"When the leadership is coming." She said nervously, "I've memorized all the speech content."

"Awesome, Soy Milk."

Jiang Nian gave a thumbs-up, "Probably tomorrow, but if you have time, you might want to prepare for the second mock exam."

She was stunned for a moment.

"The second mock exam, next week!"

"Yeah."

"Oh no, I forgot." Cai Xiaoqing frowned, looking distressed, "I've been too focused on preparing for this."

With that, she hurried off.

Jiang Nian: "???"

After a while, Cai Xiaoqing returned, "If you can't answer tomorrow, you can ask me."

"Huh?"

"I'll secretly remind you."

"Oh oh."

The two left separately, not walking together. Jiang Nian was trailing seven or eight meters behind when he was stopped in the corridor.

"Jiang Nian!"

Yu Zhiyi lay on the railing behind a column, hands hidden in her long sleeves, giving him a small pat.

"What were you and her whispering about just now?"

"Why do you care so much?" Jiang Nian glanced at her, her grand scale hidden under her school jacket.

Half-wearing it, she didn't look chubby.

"Curious," she said.

Jiang Nian wasn't interested in explaining, throwing out a "secret" and heading back to the classroom to continue working on problems.

In no time, it was Wednesday and the leadership came to visit.
