Chapter Index

    Returning to the room from the front hall Jiang Qin woke Feng Nanshu up from the bed then holding her black stockinged feet helped her put on shoes.

    The little rich girl was wearing highly transparent stockings today. Through the thin fabric one could see her round cute toes like dewy little cherries.

    “How can they be so cute? These are mine from now on!”

    “Jiang Qin these are my feet.”

    “We’re good friends. I’m lending them to you to use but you must protect them well for me.”

    Feng Nanshu looked at him dazedly then was led out the door by Jiang Qin giving the distinct feeling of raising a cute daughter.

    Arriving at the small private room for the class gathering half the classmates had already arrived. The other half had gone out for a stroll in the rain and were now gradually returning from outside.

    The last person to enter the courtyard was a guy named Lu Tian. He had originally gone out with good legs but came back limping, even his clothes covered in large patches of mud looking quite miserable.

    The way he talked was quite interesting with a strong northeastern accent. He went around telling everyone about his near-death experience earlier even showing the wound on his ankle.

    Seeing this wound Jiang Qin felt it was very familiar so he turned to look at Feng Nanshu.

    Feng Nanshu also gave him an aloof glance: “Jiang Qin he seems to have gone to the best friend tree.”

    “This story tells us to be lifelong best friends some hardship is inevitable. There must be pain and blood.”

    While talking with the little rich girl Jiang Qin got up to grab a flatbread from the middle of the table.

    These flatbreads were dry provisions provided by the farmhouse. The number was calculated per person, one each. Not to say they were delicious but eating only vegetables definitely wouldn’t be filling.

    The flatbreads had been brought over by Jiang Tian so naturally they were placed closer to her side. This led to Jiang Qin reaching out but not being able to grab any.

    “I’ll get it for you.”

    “Let me.”

    “I’ll help you.”

    The next second three very similar sounding sentences suddenly rang out. Jian Chun, Jiang Tian and Song Qingqing all stood up grabbing the basket containing the flatbreads intending to pass it over.

    Three directions three hands simultaneously grabbing the basket and using force. As a result the mediocre quality basket was instantly deformed also ejecting a few flatbreads. The scene was quite awkward for a moment.

    “…”

    Jian Chun was the first to let go hurriedly sitting back down her heart pounding wildly.

    Actually she hadn’t thought much just instinctively wanted to serve Jiang Qin. Just like before she would instinctively want to help Jiang Qin get books not wanting others to touch his books either.

    She couldn’t explain what this feeling was but just really wanted to curry favor with Jiang Qin.

    This is how girls with admiration psychology are. The more obedient you are to her the more dispensable she will find you. But if you are very domineering to her she will instead be extremely well-behaved.

    Of course being domineering depends on the person too. If you have nothing but still act domineering that’s called putting on airs.

    But Jiang Qin is different. Jiang Qin’s actions truly carry a halo. No wonder the admiring Jian Chun’s heart would race upon seeing him.

    Putting it bluntly Jiang Qin’s unconscious actions fiercely poked Jian Chun’s points!

    Song Qingqing’s behavior is the simplest to explain logically. That’s my male god!

    That’s the male god who did an investment for me allowing me to earn over 500 yuan a month just lying down!

    My male god can’t get flatbread is there no more law? If he can’t eat it none of you can either!

    As for Jiang Tian her psychological activities are a bit more complex.

    Her personality is a bit similar to Zhuang Chen also the warm type. It was precisely because of this personality that Lu Guangrong chose her as class monitor.

    Although due to Feng Nanshu’s existence she knew she didn’t have much of a chance some things she would still inexplicably want to take the initiative like a little insect drawn to light.

    “Damn too pretentious!”

    Seeing this scene Cao Guangyu, Zhou Chao and Ren Ziqiang all opened their mouths wide their scalps tingling unbearably as if electrified.

    This makes no damn sense!

    Brother Jiang has already reached the level of splashing on people’s faces whether eating or drinking?

    At the same time the boys at the table also put down their chopsticks staring blankly at that deformed basket their expressions like drinking lemonade mixed with vinegar, incredibly sour.

    Jian Chun, Jiang Tian and Song Qingqing were the three prettiest girls in their class. Not goddesses but with a bit of pride and aloofness.

    Apparently a vice minister in the student union had pursued Jiang Tian for a semester buying all kinds of gifts but never succeeding in giving them or going out to eat together.

    Jian Chun even more so pursued by Zhuang Chen since childhood but still hasn’t agreed.

    Song Qingqing was more direct. If she looked down on you she truly wouldn’t even say a word to you.

    It was these three golden flowers who were all currying favor with Jiang Qin wishing they could feed him directly. This was simply a drought killing the thirsty a flood drowning the rest!

    Among them the most sour were Zhang Guangxu and Zhuang Chen.

    Zhang Guangxu secretly pursuing Song Qingqing was no secret. So seeing his goddess fawn over Jiang Qin like this he almost wanted to flip the table.

    Why is love so strange? Why doesn’t it fall on the two most suitable people?

    But after glancing at Zhuang Chen next to him he felt flipping the table was unnecessary. Look at Old Zhuang his head emitting a green light but still sitting stably!

    What is bearing? This is bearing!

    But Zhuang Chen wasn’t as calm inside as he appeared. He was very jealous jealous to the point of his heart spitting fire.

    Yet he still kept comforting himself it’s just helping get a flatbread such a small thing no need to make a fuss.

    Chun Chun said before she likes men of substance preferably gentle scholarly types. Ever since hearing her say this he had always used this standard to demand from himself.

    Look at Jiang Qin on the other hand. Foul-mouthed completely opposite to Jian Chun’s mate selection criteria.

    She has no reason to dislike a gentle scholar like himself but like that foul-mouthed college bum who often skips class right?

    “Zhang Guangxu why do you keep staring at my head?” Zhuang Chen suddenly noticed his roommate’s strange gaze.

    Zhang Guangxu swallowed. “It’s nothing Old Zhuang. Eat more vegetables.”

    “Weirdo!”

    “Why are you cursing me? Have the guts to curse that surnamed Jiang.”

    Zhuang Chen gritted his teeth but ultimately said nothing lowering his head silently eating pretending nothing happened.

    Of course those who were even more confused by that scene just now were the “family members” who came with boyfriends and girlfriends. Some of them weren’t even from Linchuan University so had no idea who Jiang Qin was.

    Yes this Jiang Qin is a bit tall and clean-cut but not to the point of being a male god like this right?

    Jealousy doubt amazement. A few emotions intertwined the atmosphere at the table instantly becoming silent and strange.

    Jiang Qin also felt that series of operations just now was outrageous.

    He really doesn’t like showing off but truly can’t stop people from constantly delivering it.

    Damn it I’m just an ordinary Jeju Island Wu Yanzu!

    But I must say Financial Class 3 is truly a united and loving big family. If only next time I skip class someone could rush to answer for me.

    Unfortunately some operations weren’t used in the right place.

    Jiang Qin reached out taking a flatbread breaking off half passing it to Feng Nanshu.

    “Eat less flatbread more vegetables.”

    “Jiang Qin want to eat dumplings.” Feng Nanshu said aloofly.

    “These are all pre-ordered set meals. Where do I go to get you dumplings? I’ll take you to eat when we get back to school. Be good.”

    After that little interlude once lunch ended everyone had been cooped up in the house all morning. Now it was like opening the pen all going out in groups to the village.

    Across from the farmhouse the shore willows kept waving their branches. The deep and serene lake was emerald green like jadeite.

    Zhou Chao stood on the lakeshore picking up a stone to toss in. With a plop he couldn’t help swallowing.

    With this depth going in to catch fish? Hehe jump in and start eating directly.

    At the same time more people began advancing into the village finally stopping under that huge fate tree.

    Cao Guangyu went to the hut opposite to buy a sign writing his and Ding Xue’s names on it then hanging it up in high spirits. As a result his ankle gained another wound the sign falling into the grass.

    When he got up again his eyes had changed thinking damn can Old Jiang really tell fortunes?

    Next Zhuang Chen also bought a sign writing his and Jian Chun’s names. His foot also gained another cut.

    Then more and more young couples began gathering under the tree. The whole village was full of little limpers.

    Jiang Qin laughed on the side thinking if I carried over a ladder charging 50 each there would probably be desperate souls willing to rent it.

    Because all businessmen know things tied to love make the most damn money even more outrageous than outright robbery.

    Just like these wishing signs. They’re made of pure wood no different from shoe brush handles with basically no cost but have the nerve to charge 20 each.

    20 is 20 but the key is you can’t even bargain. Because as soon as you do the old man selling signs will tell you sorry young man love cannot be discounted it’s a bad omen.

    Listen to that. Makes so damn much sense. Love cannot be discounted.

    Jiang Qin had reincarnated cheating this and that but other than having his edge blunted once by Jiang Zhihua this life the only time he didn’t dare bargain was buying this sign.

    “Old Jiang I seem to have seen a sign earlier with your name on it.”

    Cao Guangyu finally climbed up again straddling the railing turning his head to say.

    “Hurry and hang your sign up there. You finally climbed up but are still damn worrying about others.”

    Jiang Qin hurried him grumbling.

    Cao Guangyu felt he was right so quickly tied his own sign up there. “Finally done. Hope this tree can be as efficacious as the legend says.”

    “Of course it will be efficacious. You and Ding Xue will definitely become lifelong best friends.” Jiang Qin grinned.

    “????”
