They quickly brought a large group of people, all of whom were classmates who had bet on Yang Feng in the group a few days ago. They all returned dejected because the principal had said that he had not cheated. They even forced him to watch the surveillance footage, and the result was the same: there was no suspicion of cheating.
This is also a lesson learned from growing up.
Naturally, some people were happy. A tiny bit of them actually bet that Yang Feng wasn't the worst student, and they actually made a lot of money. Others bet on who would get first place in this exam, and this time, the top student and school beauty, Liu Hanlu, still came in first place.
"Yang Feng, you two wait for me." A voice came from behind the bustling school gate.
Yang Feng and Han Shilan turned their heads and saw Jiang Xing and Xia Yiyi walking over. The two did look somewhat like a couple, both with oval faces. Jiang Xing was taller, after all, he was a sports student, while Xia Yiyi was only about 1.6 meters tall, wearing a blue and white school uniform. She was a bit slender and looked petite next to him.
"Hehe, you two are developing pretty fast." Yang Feng's lips curled up slightly, and his bright eyes glanced at the two of them holding hands intimately, and he said.
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Yiyi's youthful face flushed red with embarrassment. She quickly shook off Jiang Xing's hand and said, "No, we're just ordinary friends, ordinary friends."
"Oh? Are they really just ordinary friends? I've heard that there's no such thing as pure friendship between men and women."
Han Shilan covered her mouth with her fair hand and teased with a smile.
"Shilan, you're laughing at me too." Xia Yiyi came to Han Shilan's side, took her arm, rolled her eyes playfully, and said, "You two are no different, the rumors circulating on the forum are all about you."
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about it anymore." Jiang Xing smiled slightly and stepped forward to smooth things over, saying, "It's my treat today, let's go to a noodle shop for dinner."
"You're treating? Don't say you don't have money and make us pay later." Yang Feng's lips twitched slightly. It reminded him of the time they went to eat at a street food stall, and Yang Feng made excuses, saying he didn't have any money on him, that all his money was in WeChat, and that his phone was dead. In the end, he still paid for it himself.
"Don't worry, I'm rich now. A few days ago, in our grade group chat, we were betting on exam results, and I bet that you weren't at the bottom of the class, and I also bet that the school beauty, Liu, would be number one. And I actually won both! I got over two thousand yuan, which is enough to treat you guys. Speaking of which, Liu is really not only beautiful and aloof, but her grades are also terrifying, she's simply..."
Before Jiang Xing could finish speaking, Yang Feng tugged at his sleeve, signaling him to stop.
Jiang Xing was somewhat puzzled. When his gaze fell on Xia Yiyi, he saw that her face was as cold and gloomy as ice.
He then realized he had said the wrong thing. In front of her, who was almost his girlfriend, he had praised other girls in every way. Wasn't that digging his own grave?
"Hmph!" Xia Yiyi snorted coldly and said to Han Shilan, "Shilan, let's go!"
Jiang Xing, his face streaked with tears, watched the two of them walk away. Yang Feng patted his shoulder and said:
"Brother, I just wish you good luck. Why did you talk so much? Now hurry up and coax her back."
Then, Yang Feng and Jiang Xing quickly walked to their sides. Yang Feng was naturally on Han Shilan's side, while Jiang Xing was naturally next to Xia Yiyi. The four of them walked towards the street.
During this time, Han Shilan greeted the driver, saying that she was going out to buy things with her classmates at noon and would be going on a picnic tomorrow. The driver nodded, but his gaze toward Yang Feng remained full of doubt.
Yang Feng had an exceptional memory and a detective's mind, so naturally he had the instinct to observe carefully. He recognized that the driver was the one who had been standing behind the mayor earlier, and immediately felt a bad premonition.

Chapter 59 The Nicest Girl
Yang Feng and his three companions arrived at the bustling pedestrian street. Although it was lunchtime, there were still many people there. He glanced at Jiang Xing beside him and kept saying nice things to Xia Yiyi, even Han Shilan could hardly stand it anymore, but Xia Yiyi blushed.
Xia Yiyi released Han Shilan's arm and said shyly, "Actually, I'm not as good as you say."
“No, no, you are the nicest girl in my eyes.” Jiang Xing quickly said, his large hand secretly reaching to the back of her hand and suddenly grasping her small hand. He smiled slightly, looked up at the front, and said, “Let’s go, there’s a noodle shop up ahead, let’s go eat there.”
Xia Yiyi tried to struggle, but how could a weak girl like her be a match for a sports student? So she gave in.
As they walked, Han Shilan watched them holding hands sweetly, a hint of envy flashing in her beautiful eyes.
Just then, Yang Feng's large hand also took Han Shilan's small hand. His expression seemed calm, but he was actually a little nervous and excited inside.
The sunlight cast their shadows as they walked into the noodle shop.
"Boss, four bowls of braised beef noodles, with some scallions and extra beef."
Jiang Xing led the three of them to a seat against the wall, then turned to the receptionist and spoke loudly.
"Okay, just a moment."
The waiter nodded and quickly placed the order on the machine.
Yang Feng and Han Shilan sat together, while Jiang Xing and Xia Yiyi sat opposite them at the rectangular table. Han Shilan was very beautiful, with a jet-black ponytail, a tight and pretty oval face, and a blue and white school uniform. Not only her, but Xia Yiyi was also beautiful, after all, she was the class beauty.
So now it has attracted a lot of attention, but people only steal a few glances.
"Shilan, let's go to the supermarket later to buy some daily necessities for tomorrow, and some snacks," Xia Yiyi said.
"Mm." Han Shilan nodded.
"Ugh, all three of you get to go on picnics, but I'm stuck stuck in this damn school. It's so annoying."
Jiang Xing grumbled and looked at Xia Yiyi beside him with a wistful gaze.
"Ha! Who told you not to study hard? Now you regret it, don't you? Serves you right!"
Xia Yiyi said without any mercy, punching Jiang Xing's sturdy shoulder with her little fist.
"Is it my fault? Blame Yang Feng." Jiang Xing thought for a moment and said.
"What the hell? Why are you blaming me?" Yang Feng asked, puzzled.
"Tch, if it weren't for you, always dragging me out to have fun, I'd probably be number one in the whole grade by now," Jiang Xing said with a straight face.
"Hehehe." Yang Feng chuckled dryly.
As they chatted, four bowls of fragrant beef noodles were placed in front of them.
Yang Feng and Jiang Xing, smelling the delicious aroma, couldn't resist their cravings and picked up their chopsticks to start eating.
"Not bad," Han Shilan exclaimed. She used to eat nutritious lunches at home, so it seemed that the noodle shop on the roadside was quite delicious.
