"Eat, why are you just sitting there stunned?"
Jiang Xu looked at An Nuonuo, sitting across from him, her face flushed, and asked knowingly.
This girl hadn't recovered from the words the canteen lady said earlier.
Little sunflower mother's class now begins.
Emphasis.
One way to pursue a girl.
Is to have those around her constantly whisper in her ear, saying the two of you make a great pair.
Many times, the girl originally has no feelings for you, doesn't like you at all.
But she can't stand it when the people around her keep saying it.
After a long time.
They will start to harbor doubt deep down.
Do I really like him?
In their hearts, your shadow will appear naturally.
You can observe your classmates if you don't believe it.
Many of them are simply instigated by friends.
Initially, neither had feelings for the other.
After being teased too many times, they began to doubt themselves.
Then, inexplicably, they got together.
At Jiang Xu's words, An Nuonuo regained her senses.
She shook her head repeatedly, her head lowered as she picked at her food.
But the words the canteen lady said earlier kept surfacing in her mind.
A subtle smile appeared at the corner of Jiang Xu's mouth.
This method was feasible.
Next, he would wait for An Nuonuo to adjust, then get his classmates to join in on the teasing.
He aimed to make An Nuonuo's heart occupied by nothing but Jiang Xu, as soon as possible.
"Look, there's Jiang Xu."
Zhou Qingyue, Li Honghong, and Cheng Fei had all arrived together that day.
Cheng Fei had taken over Jiang Xu's role, now starting to fawn over Zhou Qingyue.
As soon as school let out, he dashed over like a sprinter to get food for Zhou Qingyue and Li Honghong.
"Let's sit over there too," Zhou Qingyue suggested.
"You wouldn't mind if we joined you, right?"
Even as she said those words, Zhou Qingyue sat down without waiting for Jiang Xu and the others to answer.
She set her meal down on the table,
And looked at Jiang Xu with a raised chin and puffed chest.
Her intention clear.
Can't you see how popular I am?
Don't think I can't get by without you.
Without a second of hesitation, Jiang Xu picked up his and Nuonuo's dishes.
And moved to another empty seat.
He just wanted to have a good meal, without being disrupted or losing his appetite.
"Sorry," Nuonuo bent over slightly in their direction, before following Jiang Xu.
"Hey, wait for me." Fu Yanjie also picked up his plate.
Zhou Qingyue was left stunned, her face burning hotly.
A strong sense of mortification washed over her.
Just now, she had clearly seen deep disgust and irritation in Jiang Xu's eyes.
Could it be that he truly disliked her, rather than playing hard-to-get?
Impossible!
Zhou Qingyue refused to believe it.
How could a devoted "lapdog" suddenly change his character completely?
She was reluctant to believe this fact.
"This guy really doesn't have any manners," Li Honghong huffed coldly.
Ever since she was slapped twice by Jiang Xu, she found him distasteful no matter how she looked at him.
"Don't pay them any mind. Let's eat. This chicken leg is pretty good, try it."
The new "lapdog," Cheng Fei, was very attentive to Zhou Qingyue.
Yet Zhou Qingyue felt irritated.
Didn't Cheng Fei knew that she disliked chicken legs?
Unconsciously, she compared him with Jiang Xu.
And realized.
Jiang Xu was better.
With just an eye gesture, he would understand what she needed.
Nevertheless, Zhou Qingyue didn't show any signs of irritation towards Cheng Fei.
Instead, she returned the chicken leg back to him,
With a playful smile, she said, "Boys are growing, you need the nutrition.
We girls don't need such high calories, it's better if you eat it."
Suddenly.
Cheng Fei felt Zhou Qingyue was incredibly thoughtful.
She cared about me.
I felt as light as a feather.
At this moment, I even thought of names for our children.
In another corner.
While eating, Jiang Xu said to An Nuonuo, "As the saying goes, reciprocal courtesy is the rule. After school this afternoon, it's my treat to a hot-and-spicy soup.
Brother Yanjie, you should join us too."
Living costs were still very cheap, one could fill the belly with just five yuan.
He invited Fu Yanjie mainly to alleviate any pressure An Nuonuo might feel.
Just a tool-man helping hand.
Bros are indeed made for exploitation and backstabbing.
Fu Yanjie was touched, "Jiang Xu, you truely love me after all."
Jiang Xu replied, "Roll away!"
The afternoon arrives.
"Not bad, not bad, a significant improvement in your scores," Jiang Xu nodded approvingly.
There was an exam in the afternoon.
After it was over, he checked their answers with An Nuonuo.
He had a rough idea of the scores now.
She had improved by ten points compared to her average score last time.
An Nuonuo was also very happy.
When she looked at Jiang Xu, her eyes were filled with gratitude.
To her, Jiang Xu was like a beacon of light in her life.
Bringing her warmth, hope, and happiness.
"Let's go, have some hot-and-spicy soup."
"Hmm, okay."
Jiang Xu and Fu Yanjie went to get their bikes, while An Nuonuo waited at the school entrance.
"So, are you really planning to pursue An Nuonuo?" Fu Yanjie asked.
"Hmm," Jiang Xu nodded.
"That could work." Fu Yanjie smacked his lips. "Although An Nuonuo may seem ordinary,
she has a great personality. She might even turn out to be a good wife and mother down the line. I support you."
Jiang Xu said, "You should also stop going to internet cafes to play games all the time. Try to study more and aim for a better university."
In his previous life, Fu Yanjie had mediocre grades, and ended up in a very ordinary university.
It took him a long time to find a job after graduation.
Out of despair, he had no choice but to take over his father's three listed companies.
Damn!
Upon reaching the school entrance.
Jiang Xu noticed that Zhou Qingyue was also there.
Cheng Fei rode his bike over and said to Zhou Qingyue, "Been waiting long? Hop on."
"Thank you." Zhou Qingyue gave a sweet smile, then got on the back seat.
She also noticed Jiang Xu.
However, she deliberately ignored him.
Her aim was to make Jiang Xu feel pained, to make him feel that he was about to lose her.
By tonight, Jiang Xu would definitely take the initiative to contact her.
At that time, she'd play a little hard-to-get, and then give him another chance.
After all, over the past few days, Zhou Qingyue realized that Jiang Xu played a significant role in her life.
Life without him seemed very inconvenient.
Ultimately, Zhou Qingyue didn't really like Jiang Xu.
What she needed was a free laborer who could do a lot of things for her without payment,
as well as an asset she could show off at certain occasions.
However, she had no idea about Jiang Xu's thoughts at that moment.
Ecstatic!
"Ha-ha-ha, they got together, that's wonderful!"
Jiang Xu was ecstatic.
Zhou Qingyue was up to no good, and Cheng Fei was just as bad.
This guy became a pop star in his later life.
He rose to fame with a few hit songs.
After he gained a fan base, he had indulged in rampant debauchery, and even broke up someone's family.
On top of that, he was found guilty of tax evasion and fraud, and ended up behind bars.
These two were truly a match made in hell.
Pairing them up could at least spare others from their troubles.
Jiang Xu sincerely hoped that they could last forever.
There was a food street behind the school.
All three of them went to the hot-and-spicy soup stall.
The stall owner was a girl in her twenties.
Jiang Xu gave the stall owner a look.
