My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Little Crybaby!-Chapter 226: Are You Starting to Take the Unusual Path?

Xu Jinyan: ...

I’ve never felt like such a complete fool in my life.

Even being chased around the neighborhood by Lin Xiaowan with a stick wasn’t as humiliating as this moment.

This girl is definitely my nemesis.

Xu Jinyan glared at her and stormed out of the classroom.

Jiang Xuyue watched his retreating back and blinked, going over their conversation in her head.

Uh...

Did he misunderstand something?

As she considered a certain possibility, her cheeks began to grow hot.

In the front row, Jiang Yuan and Yu Chengcheng, who had the pleasure of witnessing the whole scene, were filled with glee and barely suppressed their laughter.

Usually, it was girls who ended up crying and leaving because of him. This was the first time they’d seen a girl infuriate him to the point of storming off.

It seemed there truly was a match for everyone.

And for the first time, they realized he was quite the overthinker. He could plainly see her gender, what was he thinking?

"Brother Yan, what are you doing? Class is about to start, why are you running off to here?" Fresh from the restroom, Zhang Yi was dragged by Xu Jinyan by the collar to the sports field.

Standing under the surrounding wall, Xu Jinyan instructed Zhang Yi, "Come down here and squat."

Zhang Yi was taken aback, but then it clicked, and with widened eyes he said, "You’re not planning to skip the first day of school, are you? Old He would call a parent-teacher meeting for this."

Xu Jinyan shot him a glare, "Shut up! Do you want to draw the teacher over here?"

Zhang Yi instinctively looked around before lowering his voice and saying, "No, but seriously, why are you climbing over the wall out of the blue?"

Xu Jinyan replied, "I need some fresh air; I feel suffocated!"

"And how do you plan to get back?" Surely he wasn’t planning to climb back in?

Xu Jinyan urged impatiently, "Stop asking questions. Hurry up before we get caught. If the teacher asks, just say I’m having a stomachache and sitting in the restroom."

"Alright! But be careful," Zhang Yi obediently squatted beside the wall, while Xu Jinyan stepped on his shoulders to climb over.

As soon as he landed, he saw a group of familiar faces.

Right outside the wall was the alley they often passed through to buy milk tea.

A group of people stood below, puffing away in a smoky daze.

Xiang Zhao glanced at him, then back at the wall he’d just come from, and remarked, "Are you taking a nonconventional path now?"

Xu Jinyan had initially worried about how he would climb back later, but seeing these people, he was no longer concerned and looked at Xiang Zhao, "I remember you still owe me a milk tea from last time. Perfect timing, let’s settle it today!"

Conveniently, he hadn’t brought his wallet when he left, and he wasn’t sure where to go.

Xiang Zhao held back but eventually couldn’t help saying, "You’re not seriously climbing over walls during class just to buy milk tea for that little childhood sweetheart, are you?"

"Who said I bought it for her? I want to buy it for myself!" He was startled by someone’s words earlier and needed a milk tea to calm his nerves.

"No, but why would a big guy like you drink milk tea?" he said, offering him a cigarette, "Wanna try this instead?"

Seeing him hesitate, he raised an eyebrow provocatively, "What, you don’t dare to try?"

The next moment, Xu Jinyan snatched the cigarette, and with a laugh, Xiang Zhao lit it for him. Xu Jinyan put it to his lips for a puff but ended up coughing uncontrollably the next second.

Xiang Zhao patted him on the shoulder, "You can’t rush into it like that."

"Forget it!" Xu Jinyan had little interest in smoking, mainly worried about what Lin Xiaowan would do if she found out.

After one puff, he stubbed the cigarette out on the wall, "Let’s go!"

Xiang Zhao followed him, and they wandered around the milk tea shop for a while. Yet, he still found Xu Jinyan’s wall-climbing escapade for milk tea hard to comprehend.
