Chapter 613: Chapter 386 Unfair!_2
"Hu Jun, Liang Sheng, Class 9’s Zhuo Na, Huang Zhongfei."
Yu Wen: "Ah, class monitor, I’m at the same desk as you!"
Her tone was excited, her arms swinging nonstop, she couldn’t have been happier.
Dong Qingfeng was stunned. He had delivered meals countless times but had never seen such a glow on Yu Wen’s face.
In an instant, Dong Qingfeng’s mood plummeted, and he sighed internally:
’Since Divine Sense exists, why did Qingfeng ever come into being...’
However, Dong Qingfeng was no ordinary person. His mental resilience was far superior to that of ordinary students. It was just Yu Wen, after all. He, Dong Qingfeng, owned the entire forest.
"Table 29, Bai Yuxia."
Dan Kaiquan and Dong Qingfeng both brightened up but then dimmed immediately, as their desks had already been assigned.
Next, Huang Zhongfei read out: "Xue Yuantong, Chen Siyu, Chen Siqing, Yang Sheng, Geng Lu, Class 7’s Tang Fu."
He read quickly and finished in no time.
This gave Guo Kunnan a misconception: "Damn, why is this table all girls?"
Dong Qingfeng: "Chen Siqing is from Class 10, right? She’s not in the neighboring class, why can she be together with them?"
Cui Yu: "That doesn’t make any sense, does it?"
Wang Longlong answered: "Brother Nan, it’s not all girls. There are just seven."
Guo Kunnan was taken aback.
Then they heard Huang Zhongfei say, "Jiang Ning."
Once these words came out, the class fell into momentary silence.
Originally, Duan Shigang and Wang Yanyan being put together had been deeply upsetting to him. He had been looking for a reason to cause trouble, and seeing Jiang Ning’s treatment, he couldn’t hold back.
He immediately stood up: "Hey hey hey, let me say something fair. It’s unfair, why can table 29 have seven girls?"
While Huang Zhongfei was about to explain, Yang Sheng spoke up: "Because Xue Yuantong is the top student in the grade."
Duan Shigang’s eyes widened, veins bulging on his forehead:
"Just because she’s the top student, she can do whatever she wants?"
Yang Sheng didn’t back down: "If you can become the top student, you can do the same."
Duan Shigang: "What’s so great about being the top student?"
Yang Sheng, not wanting to argue further, curled her lips with a playful smile: "You seem very unconvinced?"
From the back row, Ma Shicheng’s heart thumped upon seeing her smile.
Beside him, Guo Kunnan also recalled those terrible days.
Duan Shigang, unafraid of a woman, boasted arrogantly: "That’s right, I’m unconvinced."
Yang Sheng: "How about we make a bet?"
Dan Kaiquan, Cui Yu, Yu Wen, Jiang Yanan, suddenly felt inexplicably pained.
Duan Shigang, an old hand at gambling, adeptly countered: "How do we bet, and what’s the stake?"
"Rock-paper-scissors. If you win, I’ll swap lunch tables with you. If you lose, you do my duty for a term," Yang Sheng crossed her legs.
Duan Shigang laughed inwardly. Was there such a good deal?
He said with a dominating air: "Alright, I’ll take that bet!"
Yang Sheng looked around: "Let everyone bear witness."
Cui Yu’s mouth twitched, damn it, the duties he owed still hadn’t been cleared after two terms!
But he was eager to see Gangzi’s misfortune.
Chen Siyu: "Isn’t the risk a bit high?"
She didn’t want to sit with Duan Shigang, as he didn’t seem like a good person.
Bai Yuxia: "Based on my experience, there’s zero risk."
Under the whole class’s scrutiny, with the fair and clear class monitor as referee, the bet began.
Duan Shigang ended up with a term’s worth of duties.
Yang Sheng: "Work well, I have faith in you."
Duan Shigang’s expression changed, damn it, he lost too quickly.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, and he lost his cool: "Another round!"
Yang Sheng: "No, you’re not worth it anymore."
...
Thursday morning.
Xue Yuantong carried a small bag into Class 8.
The bag contained her and Jiang Ning’s lunch boxes. Starting this morning, they had joined the school’s meal group.
Looking around, many students’ desks in the class had lunch boxes or food bins.
Chen Siyu anticipated: "What dishes did the cafeteria make this morning?"
"I wonder if it’s as good as before?"
School mealtime was scheduled right after the morning self-study, during the ultra-long break—it was more than enough time to eat.
Jiang Ning extended his Divine Sense towards the cafeteria, where a spacious and clean kitchen was being inspected by the vice-principal, Director Yan, and numerous other teachers.
Now that the Small Dining Table project was initiated, not only the students, but many teachers also participated.
Principal Yu had repeatedly instructed that the cafeteria’s food must strictly adhere to hygiene standards, the portions had to be sufficient, and it must taste good—they shouldn’t just focus on making money.
But the teachers knew the real reason.
During the school anniversary, President Shao of Evergreen Liquid had mentioned that the cafeteria food was as bad as before.
For anyone else, would Principal Yu care?
But Shao Shuangshuang had donated 15 million, and that was just the first donation.
Without waiting for the education bureau to provide guidance, Principal Yu swiftly got rid of the previous small business owner of the cafeteria.
He really couldn’t afford to deal superficially. Principal Yu, well-informed and knowledgeable, was acutely aware of the terrifying scale of Evergreen Liquid, with its revenue exceeding a hundred billion and its profits reportedly reaching a terrifying level.
Of course, he took such an alumnus’s comments seriously.
Director Yan checked the kitchen to see if the day’s ingredients were fresh, while another teacher verified the financial aspects, confirming there were no issues.
All of this was perceived by Jiang Ning’s Divine Sense. 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝒃.𝒄𝒐𝙢
He said, "Breakfast was quite good, much better than before it was changed."
Chen Siyu took his words as mere consolation.
Jiang Ning didn’t elaborate further, preferring to leave it as a surprise.
Xue Yuantong had been reading for a while and was getting hungry. Usually, she would have finished breakfast by this time, but today, due to participating in the Small Dining Table, it was delayed.
"Stop reading, take a rest," Jiang Ning said.
Xue Yuantong obediently took a rest.
This would help reduce her expenditure of energy.
Morning self-study soon ended, and the class bell rang. Guo Kunnan dashed out of the classroom like an arrow released from its bow.
"Brother Ma, let’s hurry!" Wang Longlong urged.
In an instant, the classroom buzzed with activity as many students picked up their lunchboxes and headed towards the cafeteria.
Outside in the corridor, a group of students from Class 9 passed by, with Yan Tianpeng rattling his food container loudly as if he were a night watchman.
"Jiang Ning, it’s time to eat!" Xue Yuantong said.
"Right, let’s go."
Jiang Ning led Xue Yuantong out the door.
On the way to the cafeteria, hundreds of students from first to second grade merged into the stream of people from all directions.
Guo Kunnan, in the very front, couldn’t wait to catch a glimpse of Tan Meiling and Lu Yaya!
Dan Kaiquan tried to catch up but was too slow, which made him complain to Longlong, "Damn, Brother Nan didn’t bring his food container!"
He had noticed and brought it along afterward.
Jiang Ning walked at a steady pace, and by the time he reached the cafeteria, the vast hall was filled with students.
Chen Siyu said, "We’re at table 29, let’s find our table first."
Jiang Ning kept moving, "Follow me."
He had already scanned the spots in advance and was familiar with them.
At table 29, there were three dishes and a large plastic tray with 8 egg pancakes and 8 pieces of boiled corn cut into about a third.
Eating just that probably wouldn’t be enough. Nearby, a teacher was shouting, "Students at each table go to the window to pick up your steamed buns, take as many as you need but don’t waste!"
"Here’s the congee container, come and serve yourselves~" Teacher Guo Ran, looking fresh and pretty like a college student, was guarding two huge stainless steel pots.
Her voice was very pleasant, "There’s milk oatmeal congee and rice corn congee."
After hearing that, Jiang Ning arranged, "You guys get the buns, I’ll get the congee."
Saying this, he picked up Xue Yuantong’s lunchbox and headed for the congee containers. There were three congee spots in the hall, with Guo Ran being the closest.
"Wait, how many buns will you eat?" Geng Lu asked.
Xue Yuantong: "He’ll have two."
While they were talking, the last member, Tang Fu from Class 7, found table 29.
She had already learned that she was assigned to the headquarters of Class 8. Tang Fu, tall and beautiful with an outgoing personality, wasn’t shy.
First noticing Chen Siyu, Tang Fu nodded in a friendly manner. Just as she was about to get some congee, she turned around and saw Chen Siqing.
Suddenly, her expression looked as if she had seen a ghost.
She turned back around to confirm there were indeed two girls who looked exactly alike.
Tang Fu couldn’t help but ask, "Are you twins?"
Chen Siyu and Chen Siqing: "Yes, yes."
Tang Fu: "Oh, how many years apart are you sisters?"
