Chapter 1243: Chapter 832: Window Paper
As night fell, everything settled down.
Jiang Nian lay on the living room sofa, watching the two girls excitedly, huddled on the other side counting money like crazy.
"Remember to give me a share."
"Why should we?" Qianqian glanced at him with disdain, "You also have gift money, just ask Aunt Li for it."
"The way you say that." Jiang Nian turned over, "The wool comes off the sheep, will my mom give it to me?"
"Ours is the same." Song Xiyun chuckled, "But your mom gave us a big red envelope."
"Two hundred?" Jiang Nian was unimpressed.
"More than a thousand."
"Huh?"
Jiang Nian sat up, puzzled, "That really is a big red envelope, why didn’t she give me one."
"She disdains you." Qianqian snorted, "Are you making money over there?"
"Where?"
"Yuhang."
"Oh oh, at first it was a loss." Jiang Nian said, "Then I broke even and made some money."
"How much?" Qianqian estimated two or three thousand.
"Twenty thousand."
Qianqian: "???"
Song Xiyun: "???"
"That much?" Qianqian was stunned, "Wasn’t it supposed to be tough at the start?"
Song Xiyun was also a bit dumbfounded, "Yeah, my mom didn’t start making money until three months later."
"Just lucky, I guess." Jiang Nian raised his eyebrows, "Haven’t you heard the rule of newbie fishing, always catching big fish?"
"Whatever, just keep showing off." Qianqian rolled her eyes at him, "Don’t spend it recklessly, it’s not easy to earn money."
Jiang Nian: "Got it."
Song Xiyun laughed on the side, glancing down momentarily. Slightly envious of the natural way the two interacted.
She quickly shook her head and continued playing on her phone.
On the sofa, Jiang Nian glanced at Xiao Song, pondering for a moment, looking thoughtful.
The night deepened as the three prepared to go downstairs for a bite to eat.
The lunch had been too greasy, so they wandered around for a bit. They found a wonton stand and gathered to eat.
Two bags of vegetable rolls, three fried eggs.
The two ate a lot, and Qianqian also had a big appetite, only Xiao Song had a normal appetite and ate less.
"No wonder you’re not healthy." Jiang Nian wiped his mouth with a tissue, "Do you eat this little every day?"
Song Xiyun: "....."
"Eating too much will make you fat."
Qianqian paused halfway through eating and looked up at her.
"How can that be?"
As she spoke, she stuffed the vegetable rolls quickly into her mouth. Her cheeks puffed up, chewing like a squirrel.
She took another sip of soup, finally feeling satisfied.
"I’m not fat at all."
Indeed, the weight goes where it should. If she eats less for a while, even her chest size decreases.
"Let’s watch a movie later." Jiang Nian suggested, "There’s an old film, Interstellar."
"What’s it about?" Qianqian asked curiously.
"Huh?" Jiang Nian looked bewildered, staring at her as if she were a wild person, "You’ve never watched it?"
"Is it essential for Earthlings?" Qianqian retorted.
"I haven’t either....." Song Xiyun timidly raised her hand, "If it’s good, we can watch it later."
"No, anything he likes must not be good." Qianqian said, "Let’s pick something else!"
"How about ’Love Letter’?"
"It’s alright."
"Okay."
The three quickly decided and bought tickets. They walked over in a hurry, stopping by to visit Zhenan Middle School.
It was closed for vacation, but they could go in.
The guard recognized them.
"The top student is back?" the old guard said cheerfully, greeting the three, eyes gleaming with gossip.
The light of gossip.
The fact is, regardless of age or gender, old people love some gossip—about how these three kids came together again.
Ah ah ah, there must be something going on.
"Not the top student, just barely passed." Even with Jiang Nian’s thick skin, he felt a bit embarrassed.
The two girls were even more embarrassed, blushing and hiding next to Jiang Nian as the old man kept calling them top students.
"No, not top students."
"Just barely made it."
The old guard laughed, "Go on in, you’re all good kids. The sports field over there is locked, no lights."
"Oh oh, okay." Jiang Nian said awkwardly, quickly passing through.
The night was deep, and the campus was serene.
The three walked shoulder to shoulder, looking at the dark teaching building and the lit administrative building.
"There’s no one around."
"It’s the holidays."
"In another month, it’ll be bustling again."
"Aren’t we still on vacation?"
"The Olympic class starts earlier, they have to do military training first." Qianqian said, "While others do military training, the Olympic class is already having classes."
"Oh, half a month ahead, huh."
"Exactly, ahead in everything." Qianqian pursed her lips, "While others start teaching, the Olympic class is already reviewing."
"Oh oh, I see." Jiang Nian, a newcomer, was naturally unaware, "I bow to the two Olympic masters."
Qianqian: "..."
Song Xiyun: "....."
The two girls didn’t want to talk to him, rolled their eyes, and walked on, whispering to each other.
....
Elsewhere, Lin Dong had just finished work. He randomly found an internship to pass the time with summer jobs.
The urge to make money wasn’t very strong.
After all, he still had some money and wanted to rest after exams. Spending the days idly, until thinking about classes starting later.
He skimmed through the group chat, roughly understanding that most of the class had summer jobs outside.
Either making bubble tea or working in a factory.
Honestly, Zhen Nan only has those few paths. Those with better conditions end up running errands in companies.
"Li Hua, I heard you’re filming an adult film in Yuhang?"
"Chi Shi!!" Li Hua popped up to dispel the rumor, "I manage the props, who is spreading rumors outside about me?"
The group chat instantly became lively, with many people popping up.
Liu Yang: "Do they disinfect the props after use?"
"Chi Shi, right!!" Li Hua couldn’t stand them, "It’s a serious video shoot, none of that nonsense."
Zeng You: "Jiang Nian said it."
"Chi Shi, Chi Shi!!" Li Hua sent several angry emoji packs, "Traitor, I knew it!!"
"He just hosted a school promotion banquet, did you know?" Ma Guojun popped up suddenly, sending a funny emoji pack.
