High School Belle Fell in Love with Me-Chapter 33: Have You Ever Been to a Bar?

Wednesday, Xue Ning’s teacher’s apartment.

Li Yang just came back with food from the cafeteria.

He brought breakfast in the morning, spent nearly four hours doing practice questions here, then went downstairs to the cafeteria to get lunch before the students were dismissed and brought it back early.

As soon as he came in, he saw Jiang Banxia excitedly holding up her phone and saying, "Look, look... my phone is back! Haha, they fetched clothes for me last night and didn’t even notice."

Li Yang might have believed those words if he hadn’t seen Jiang Banxia briefly online last night.

However, there was really nothing suspicious in his chat history with Jiang Banxia, so he wasn’t afraid of anyone going through it.

"Having a phone may not be a good thing either. Here, I may ask you questions. Originally, after I leave, you could rest for a while. Now that you have a phone, I’ll still ask you questions, and you won’t have any free time."

"It’s fine, it’s fine. Who made me your master in this area."

Jiang Banxia laughed like a morning flower.

"Then hurry up and eat."

"Alright, as the disciple shows loyalty, I must eat more."

"Heh..."

Anyway, he didn’t spend extra money. He simply carried the lunchbox, saying it was for a teacher, and the cafeteria auntie didn’t hesitate, specially picking several pieces of meat.

As for loyalty, that stuff does go bad.

It’s like freshly cut meat; if the weather is hot, it’ll go bad by the next day.

If it’s cold, it can last a few more days.

In the afternoon, things went on as usual.

Sometimes Jiang Banxia would stare at Li Yang because Li Yang really didn’t get distracted the whole day, completing five or six sets of mock exams.

And that’s during the day. He still has to continue after going back at night.

Jiang Banxia is increasingly confident that he can score 580 points.

Around six, Xue Ning came back.

Since Xue Ning wasn’t a homeroom teacher, she didn’t have classes during evening self-study.

At this time, Li Yang had to leave. Otherwise, with such a small room, the two girls couldn’t wash up and go to bed.

Could he get any cheaper?

Around 8:30, Xue Ning received a phone call and then came out, asking Jiang Banxia, "Xiaxia, the teacher asked if you’re going back."

"No! I want to stay here until the college entrance exams and discuss after they’re over..."

Actually, the night before last, after knowing such a big secret that her family had been hiding from her, she briefly wanted to listen to her biological mother and go abroad.

But now, she couldn’t make up her mind. After all, there was still an agreement.

If the agreement couldn’t be fulfilled, she would talk about it then.

"Your stepmother also said she solved that problem for you, asking when you’d be available for her to explain to you."

"No way! I don’t care for her to help me with problems!"

In Jiang Banxia’s eyes, Dou Ying was purposely trying to show off with the goal of bringing her child back.

Once Dou Ying’s child comes, Jiang Banxia herself would be an outsider in this family.

It’s not that she’s mad at Dou Ying and her father having a child together, but rather at their sneaky ways while keeping her in the dark.

Isn’t it just about making way? She wouldn’t wait to be pushed aside and leave on her own accord.

She definitely won’t give Dou Ying another chance to perform, making it seem like she owes her something.

I, Jiang Banxia, have only ever owed someone 58 bucks, a bowl of ramen, and a plate of marinated dishes, and now I kind of don’t feel like repaying them!

Xue Ning could only reply with a few simple words reluctantly.

She didn’t mention a word about Li Yang studying here.

Today she went to the office to ask Liu Dayou about Li Yang.

As a result, Liu Dayou’s face looked unusually bad.

At night, with Xue Ning and Jiang Banxia sharing a bed, she asked, "Xiaxia, Li Yang seems pretty normal, right? Why does your homeroom teacher, Liu, get weird when he hears his name?"

Jiang Banxia: "..."

"Well... uh... Li Yang cursed him..."

"Huh? How come I haven’t heard of that..."

After speaking, Xue Ning realized her words were problematic.

Who would go around talking about being cursed at? One would wish nothing more than to get rid of the person who cursed them.

Jiang Banxia said, "Sister Ning, I’m worried the homeroom teacher might withhold Li Yang’s admission ticket. Could you please bring it over for him?"

"How could that be? Teacher Liu wouldn’t dare to do such a thing."

Withholding a student’s admission ticket is a bottom-line issue.

"But... Li Yang cursed him very severely..."

Xue Ning: "..."

She couldn’t even imagine what exactly Li Yang said. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

It made Jiang Banxia worry that Liu Dayou might withhold Li Yang’s admission ticket.

Seeing that Jiang Banxia was really nervous, she said, "It’s okay, I’ll keep an eye on it. Teacher Liu wouldn’t dare act rashly. If after several days Liu still hasn’t cooled down, I’ll bring Li Yang’s admission ticket over before the college entrance exams."

"Mm, okay."

Jiang Banxia felt at ease.

Problems with the admission ticket before the exams could be fixed, but it would be a disaster if issues arose during the exams.

Li Yang seemed unworried; what was that guy thinking?

In fact, Li Yang had no intention of returning the admission ticket after the exams.

After all, no matter how angry Liu Dayou was, he wouldn’t dare to withhold the admission ticket, right? Once it was issued, he wouldn’t let anyone else keep it.

...

This week passed quickly.

By Sunday evening, the sign at the entrance of the senior high school building showed only 16 days left until the college entrance exams, making many students anxious.

But those who wanted to play were still playing, like Li Yang’s roommates.

Dong Hao was an exception; he no longer went to internet cafes overnight but returned to the dorm chatting on his phone, occasionally showing an innocent smile.

geigeigei...

Li Yang didn’t bother with Bai Qing at all, even though Bai Qing kept sending him photos.

When Bai Qing claimed that song was worth ten million yuan, he knew exactly what Bai Qing was up to.

He didn’t have time to play mind games with Bai Qing.

Having missed the chance to attend university in his previous life, he now wanted to really experience it.

He didn’t need to be outstanding; just graduating would suffice.

After finishing a day of review, he returned to the dormitory and received a message from Jiang Banxia.

"Is Master Li there?"

Seeing this title, he knew something was wrong.

The two of them had already evolved to the point of swapping identities at any time.

Of course, it wasn’t to the extent of swapping bodies; otherwise, he would surely reward himself.

They called each other "Master" and would randomly swap it around.

In terms of studying, he had to call Jiang "Master"; in other areas, Jiang Banxia often had the opportunity to show her loyalty.

"Yes, Master Jiang, do you need anything?"

"Have you ever been to a bar?"

"What? A bar? Why suddenly ask this question? Minors aren’t allowed in there!"

Li Yang had been to bars, of course; in his previous life, that’s where he met Xue Ning.

Now he had zero interest in bars; despite going so many times in his previous life, the legendary encounters never happened.

Not with Xue Ning either since they were old acquaintances; it wouldn’t have made a difference in another setting.

Xue Ning loved going to bars, and she paid a substantial price for it, eventually marrying an old man she casually met.

However, luck favored her; shortly after they wed, the old man passed, leaving her two apartments and over a million in savings in Jiang City.

"Sister Ning went to a bar, huh? I want to see what it’s like in a bar..."

"Hmm? How do you know she went to a bar?"

"Someone called her, and I overheard. Master Li... can I..."

"Umm... that’s not possible!"
