Chapter 46

That's such a stupid and outdated method.

She took out her phone in the morning, and Su Qianqian deliberately brought her head so close, wasn't she just trying to steal a kiss from her?

The attempt to steal a kiss failed, and instead caused her nose to bleed. That night, however, an opportunity arose, and Su Qianqian's wish was granted. Taking advantage of Su Qianqian's inattention, Su Qianqian successfully stole a kiss from her.

Jiang Cuo didn't believe that Su Qianqian hadn't joined the class's small group chat.

Because Su Qianqian never took out her phone to prove anything to her.

Instead, she deliberately lured her to take out her phone and open the group chat. Su Qianqian must have been trying to secretly find out what nicknames she had saved in the group.

He's not tall, but he's got a lot on his mind.

Do you like her that much? You seize every opportunity to call her so affectionately, calling her "Jiang Jiang" all the time.

They acted as if they really knew each other.

If Su Qianqian hadn't been so proactive, and if her love hadn't been misplaced, how could this book have become so popular?

Even other schools know about their gossip.

As for Su Qianqian's statement about wanting to get into the same university as her, it's probably because she figured out her mindset, knowing that she wouldn't focus on such trivial things in high school, so she planned to continue following her and then slowly work things out in university...

The sound of rushing water brought Jiang Cuo back to his senses.

Why is she thinking about these things?

What Su Qianqian did? And what does it have to do with her?

She gave Su Qianqian gifts and showed concern for her, but only because Su Qianqian had spent too much money on her tutoring.

Doing these things is only right and should be returned.

But what had just been floating in her mind was something completely contrary to reason, as if someone was guiding her to think about things she shouldn't be thinking about, step by step.

Su Qianqian is really amazing.

But when reason returned, Jiang Cuo knew she should focus more on her studies.

Jiang Cuo held both hands under the tap, adjusted the warm water to cold, and then splashed it onto his face, handful by handful.

Jiang looked away from the mirror and saw cold water droplets running down her face, wetting her hair and making her feel more awake and her face less hot.

But it's clearly already autumn, so how could it still feel hot?

Jiang Cuo looked at her slightly disheveled face in the mirror. The bathroom light shone on her face, presenting a hazy yet cold beauty.

Jiang Cuo didn't care about her appearance or looks before.

But ever since Su Qianqian started circling around her, some people said that it was only because she was beautiful that Su Qianqian was attracted to her.

They say that Su Qianqian, a rich young lady, has plenty of money and can't help but flirt with pretty girls, but she's not really interested in them.

Jiang Cuo curled a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, staring intently at his face in the mirror. His skin was fair and delicate with a cool tone, his phoenix eyes were slightly cold, his hairline was enviable, and he even had a delicate widow's peak. Every expression he made revealed indifference and aloofness.

Jiang Cuo touched her delicate chin and looked at her small face in the mirror.

It turns out that she wasn't just good-looking, she was better-looking than everyone else.

So although Su Qianqian isn't very bright, she has good taste and can distinguish between beauty and ugliness, and between ordinary beauty and stunning beauty.

Suddenly, a sliver of light came from the phone. Jiang Cuo immediately turned off the tap, not even having time to wipe the water droplets from her face, and turned on the phone.

However, the person who sent the message was not Su Qianqian.

It was Fang Jingjing.

Fang Jingjing: [Jiang Cuo, congratulations on getting first place in the whole school! You're amazing! From elementary school to high school, you've always been number one. I've always looked up to you from behind.]

Luckily, I didn't go to the same high school as you, otherwise my mom would be nagging me every day to listen to you.

But seriously, how come you always perform so well? I've never seen you nervous. Do you have some secret? We're such good friends, don't keep it to yourself.

Every message Fang Jingjing sent seemed to be asking questions, as if she wanted to get something out of Jiang Cuo.

When Jiang Cuo saw that the message was from Fang Jingjing, a hint of disappointment appeared in his eyes.

Instead of rushing back, he slowly brushed his teeth, dried the water droplets on his face, cleaned the sink, and then lay down on the bed, idly typing a few words.

Jiang Pai: [Yes, thank you.]

Fang Jingjing replied quickly: "I heard from people at your school that you've been tutoring Su Qianqian lately? Is that true? How much is each lesson? If it's cheap, my mom said she wants me to join too."

Since you moved to the Su family's villa, we've lost touch.

How are my grandparents doing? My parents talk about it every day, saying they'll visit them when they have time.

Jiang Cuo's eyebrows were practically furrowed into a knot.

She hated Fang Jingjing's endless chatter the most.

Fang Jingjing: [I heard this from people at your school. They really don't treat me like a friend; they don't tell me anything.]

Fang Jingjing: [Image jdp.]

Fang Jingjing sent another photo in the corridor. Because of the angle, Jiang Cuo and Su Qianqian in the photo looked like they were hugging and kissing.

The photo was taken in the morning. Jiang Cuo had a nosebleed, and Su Qianqian wiped the blood from her nose. Then, Jiang Cuo pinched Su Qianqian's cheek.

Someone found a good angle to take a picture of it.

I never expected the photo to turn out like this.

Fang Jingjing: [I saw this on the school's online forum, it's all over the place. You and Su Qianqian aren't really together, are you? The college entrance exam is coming up soon, you should be focusing on your studies. My mom heard it from some other parent, and she's threatening to tell your grandfather. I don't know if it's true or not, and I don't dare to chime in.]

Jiang Cuo tapped the image with her slender fingers, zoomed in, and looked at it carefully. Her tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and the angle of the photo didn't bother her.

However, Fang Jingjing's words immediately dampened her slightly cheerful mood.

Jiang Cuo: [No, don't talk nonsense.]

Fang Jingjing sent an embarrassed emoji.

Fang Jingjing: [Don't worry, how could I say such things? We've been friends for so many years! But there are rumors online that Su Qianqian likes you and is pursuing you. They even published a novel about it. The rumors are so exaggerated, it's like the truth. My mom is just too worried about you. After all, you're such a good student, and your grandparents are getting old. They're counting on you. My mom is afraid you'll make a mistake, so she's always trying to complain to your grandpa that you're dating too early and ask him to keep a closer eye on you.]

And everyone's saying that Su Qianqian is pursuing you so passionately, but you haven't responded. Could it be that you also like Su Qianqian?

Jiang Cuo was extremely agitated at this moment.

She couldn't understand why, despite both being clingy and persistent, Su Qianqian didn't evoke any displeasure, while Fang Jingjing was so annoying.

Jiang Cuo: [。]

Jiang Cuo's last bit of patience ran out.

He was even too lazy to recall the unpleasant things that had happened between him and Fang Jingjing.

After clicking a random symbol, I deleted the chat box.

She doesn't like getting too close to people because there are too many people like Fang Jingjing, and they're too annoying.

Su Qianqian, on the other hand, was alright. Even though she acted like a little liar and followed him around like a shadow, she wasn't that annoying.

...

The next morning, Su Qianqian went to class in her luxury car as usual.

When the luxury car arrived at the school gate, Su Qianqian saw a crowd of students gathered there through the car window.

Jiang Cuo had just stopped his electric scooter.

Su Qianqian immediately opened the car door and jogged over to Jiang Cuo's side.

"Jiang Jiang, what happened? Why are so many classmates gathered around?"

"Don't shout at school."

[Waste System: Congratulations, host. Your integration with the system world has increased by 1%. Your current integration with this system world is 73%.]

"Oh~"

Su Qianqian was in a great mood when she heard that the fusion level had increased.

"Okay, you're not allowed to call me that at school, but you can call me that anywhere else."

Jiang Cuo pursed her lips and remained silent, her attitude resembling tacit agreement.

Su Qianqian ran to Jiang Cuo's side and watched him park his electric scooter, so she didn't see the crowd gathered around, all looking up.

As the two walked side by side toward the campus, they heard a sudden gasp from the crowd in front of them.

"Someone jumped off a building."

"Which class is she from? Where are the security guards? Why didn't anyone stop her?"

"Everyone's just started school, haven't quite realized what's going on yet, right?"

"No, I saw her climb up and then jump down. Look, look, the principal is here."

Hearing the murmurs around her, Su Qianqian suddenly had a bad feeling. Her heart pounded, as if she had a gut feeling that this plot would definitely be related to her.

As if on purpose, everyone kept a few steps away from Su Qianqian after seeing her.

Thus, an invisible path was cleared for Jiang Cuo and Su Qianqian.

Su Qianqian's eyes widened, and her first reaction was to turn around and cover Jiang Cuo's eyes with her hands.

Su Qianqian: "Don't be afraid, don't look, close your eyes."

A note from the author:

Jiang Cuo: Her first reaction was to protect me; she's such a good wife.

Su Qianqian: Prioritize important matters, don't scare the children. Thank you to all the little angels who voted for me or watered my plants between 00:03:14 and 23:33:19 on April 13, 2022!

Thank you to the little angel who threw the landmine: Four Seasons Rain (1 landmine);

Thank you to the little angels who irrigated the nutrient solution: 10 bottles for swimming in the river; 8 bottles for the suspect in a love affair; 7 bottles for becoming a top student; 5 bottles for Linxi; 3 bottles; 2 bottles for Shiqi; 1 bottle for keeping this promise;

Thank you so much for your support! I will continue to work hard!

The school cleared the scene as quickly as possible and called the police.
