Chapter 406: Chapter 287: Rainfall
Jiang Ning finished his meal and bought a hard-boiled egg from the window, which was for Xue Yuantong.
Geng Lu swiped her card and casually glanced at the balance on her meal card, 134 yuan.
"Is it less than before?" Jiang Ning asked.
"It’s 10 yuan less, but it doesn’t matter, as long as the card is found." Geng Lu said, in fact, she could check the transaction record and ask that student to reimburse her.
But thinking about the other party’s misfortune, even though Geng Lu was a girl, she still felt pain for him, let alone the person involved.
It was truly tragic as the person had already been punished.
Geng Lu decided that the 10 yuan could be considered as a ticket price for watching the drama with Jiang Ning.
...
Back in the classroom, as soon as Jiang Ning sat down, Chen Siyu turned around.
She held her phone, showing it to Jiang Ning:
"Is this you?"
Jiang Ning’s Divine Sense swept over the screen, only to see a scene of his confrontation with Luo Jun and Gu Tai, with the caption:
"They’re fighting."
He didn’t answer first but handed the hard-boiled egg to Xue Yuantong, who had been waiting for a long time.
"It’s me." Jiang Ning said.
Chen Siyu was surprised, "Did they really start fighting? Were they badly hurt? You don’t have to pay them, do you?"
She was bored during the break and brushed through QQ space, quickly recognizing the person in the picture.
Jiang Ning thought about it and said, "No physical harm was done, but they did take quite a hit mentally."
Xue Yuantong peeled the egg with her small hands, "Jiang Ning, did you launch a mental attack on them?"
"It wasn’t me, it was someone else." Jiang Ning poured some hot water from her cup.
Xue Yuantong immediately looked at him in a huff:
"Eating an egg is so choking!"
"You drank all my water, aren’t you harming me?"
Jiang Ning: "I’m just drinking a little, don’t forget who brought the egg."
Xue Yuantong was not the kind to be ungrateful. After being reminded, she generously forgave Jiang Ning.
Chen Siyu said, "Mentally attacked, what does that mean?"
"Put your phone away first, I’ll tell you in a bit." Jiang Ning said.
Chen Siyu, as obedient as her sister, quickly put away her phone upon Jiang Ning’s request and adjusted her posture.
Sitting up straighter.
Sure enough, a few seconds later, the homeroom teacher Shan Qingrong appeared at the classroom door.
Chen Siyu admired him in her heart; Jiang Ning always seemed to sense the arrival of the teacher beforehand.
Back in middle school, Chen Siyu’s class had a student who always noticed everything around; whenever a teacher was coming, he would quickly put away his phone and avoid risk with lightning speed.
However, that student was loud and seemed startled by any slight movement, nowhere near as calm as Jiang Ning.
And later, that student got caught by the teacher, who smashed his phone and called his parents.
Bai Yuxia also heard Jiang Ning’s hint but still looked at her phone. As one of the top four students in class 8, her grades warranted some privileges.
The classmates noticed the homeroom teacher and stopped their surreptitious actions, hiding their phones and silencing their chatter.
All eyes turned to him.
Homeroom teacher Shan Qingrong called out, "Jiang Ning, come out for a moment."
Shan Qingrong’s tone was gentle, always kind to Jiang Ning, a student who brought him honor.
After Jiang Ning stepped out, a buzz of discussion rose in the classroom.
"Did you hear that? Jiang Ning got into a fight in the cafeteria!" Dong Qingfeng said.
Yu Wen: "Really?"
Shen Qing’e didn’t speak but quietly stopped writing with her pen.
For some reason, lately, every time she heard Jiang Ning’s name, she couldn’t help but be distracted.
"I have a picture as proof!" Dong Qingfeng showed the WeChat moments screenshot.
After seeing it, Yu Wen’s tone was odd, "Does he like to have conflicts with others?"
Back of the classroom.
Wang Longlong’s information was clearly more up-to-date than Dong Qingfeng’s. He showed Ma Shicheng on his mobile phone:
"Brother Ma, Shen Xinli is not alone anymore!"
The photo depicted two familiar large figures surrounding a boy, one of whom was bending over as though attempting a kissing gesture.
"Isn’t that Pang Jiao and Zhang Yifei?" Ma Shicheng said.
"Right. And there’s more." Wang Longlong swiped the phone, and a new image appeared. This one showed two boys confronting Jiang Ning, their expressions seemingly very angry.
Then he revealed several other photos taken from different angles.
Ma Shicheng pieced together the events from those images:
"They fought with Jiang Ning, and one of them got knocked out, then Pang Jiao and Zhang Yifei gave him CPR?"
"No, that’s not right. They probably didn’t actually start fighting. Something happened halfway through." Because there were no photos of the fight.
Logic dictates that if there had been a fight, the most exciting moments would have undoubtedly been captured, yet they were absent.
Wang Longlong said, "These two students are Luo Jun and Gu Tai from class 11, the ones who set up the memorial this morning according to the school announcement."
Ma Shicheng: "Unbelievable!"
...
After speaking briefly with Shan Qingrong, Jiang Ning returned to the classroom.
He hadn’t fought with the person; they were revived immediately after fainting.
Other than being mentally unstable, they were otherwise healthy.
This was when being a good student paid off. As one of the top students in the school, the school naturally wouldn’t trouble him.
As the incident spread, becoming more widely known, unlike the last time, this time in the packed cafeteria, many took photos.
QQ space, WeChat moments, QQ groups, Fourth Middle School’s BBS, especially the BBS.
Wang Longlong, after speculating with various sources, secretly compiled a live blog post, perfectly recreating the whole scene in the cafeteria, complete with exciting commentary, attracting many students to comment, the scene momentarily very lively.
Guo Kunnan returned from exercising, heard about the incident, learned it originated from class 11, and immediately took the opportunity to find Xu Yan to inquire about the details.
