Chapter 21 Purple Iris, Face-to-Face Provocation
Jiang Fuyue cleaned up the computer and erased all traces in exactly one hour.
After leaving the Internet cafe, the sun was setting and the fiery clouds painted a corner of the sky orange.
Unexpectedly, twenty years later, S-SA not only did not collapse, but it became better and better.
Not only has the number of transaction types increased, but security and confidentiality have also been greatly improved. Back then, she created the site simply to share experimental results with a few foreign scientists...
That night, in the study on the second floor of Yutian Mansion.
Xie Dingyuan had just received a data report from the laboratory and was about to import it into his computer when his cell phone rang: "Hello."
"Where did you get those seven Wheeler manuscripts?" He went straight to the point, skipping even the small talk.
"I bought it." Under the light, the man's fair skin was set off by his indifferent eyes, as cold as the night snow.
"Where did you buy it?"
"S-SA. Just in time." The other party adopted an auction bidding method, and the transaction time was only twenty minutes.
It was pure luck that I was able to take the photo.
There was a sudden wail from the other end: "Why didn't I make it? It's the old man's 70th birthday this year. I was thinking of giving him something meaningful, but I didn't expect you to get there first."
"Maybe there is a piece of news that is more meaningful to the old man." Xie Dingyuan stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. The night was dark and the fog was bleak.
"What news?"
"The purple irises are blooming."
…
On Monday, Jiang Fuyue walked into the classroom as the morning reading bell rang.
As soon as I sat down, Wan Xiutong came over and asked, "Jiang Jiang, are you enrolled in the Mathematical Olympiad class?"
"Um."
"I knew it..." Her expression lit up. Ever since she saw that incredible test paper, Wan Xiutong had a premonition that this day would come. "I admire you so much!"
"Thank you." Whether in her past life or this life, she rarely heard such obvious praise, but it felt good.
"Just saying thank you isn't enough." Wan Xiutong blinked.
Jiang Fuyue hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll treat you to a meal."
"No..." Wan Xiutong waved her hands repeatedly, afraid that she would take it seriously. "I was just kidding. I don't understand a question on this homework. Can you explain it to me?"
"good."
Five minutes later——
Jiang Fuyue tapped with a pen: "Is there a question on my face?"
"ah?"
"Why else do you keep looking at me?"
Wan Xiutong's cheeks turned red, and she didn't know whether it was out of shame or embarrassment.
Who made you so beautiful...
After the third math class in the morning, Xu Jing threw her another stack of test papers without saying a word, which was thicker than the last time.
"Do it well. If you don't understand, you can come to my office and ask me." After saying that, he walked away with the teacup in his hand.
God knows how much effort he put in to suppress his excitement and put on a calm demeanor. She actually got all the 36 exam questions right! All of them!
Oh my god...
Jiang Fuyue quietly put away the test paper and cleaned the desk, leaving only a pen and draft paper.
There will be a physics test in the next class.
Jiang Fuyue took twenty minutes to finish, and then fell asleep on the table.
When the bell rang, she woke up, handed the test paper forward, and left.
"What are you standing there for? Follow me."
"Huh?" Wan Xiutong was stunned. "Where are we going?"
"Have a meal."
The eating Jiang Fuyue was talking about was not in the cafeteria, but outside the school.
"Why are you suddenly inviting me to dinner?" Wan Xiutong felt a little awkward as she sat in the exquisitely decorated small restaurant.
This store was opened opposite the school. Because of its good environment and delicious food, it was once popular throughout the school.
Last month, Li Xue invited everyone to come here to celebrate her birthday. I heard that it cost her 10,000 or 20,000 yuan!
Jiang Fuyue: "I promised."
Wan Xiutong was about to cry: "I was just kidding..."
"I want to eat it myself."
"But it's so expensive here..." Wan Xiutong lowered her voice, "Jiang Jiang, why don't we just forget it?"
Jiang Fuyue had already picked up the menu and quickly pointed at four meat dishes, two vegetarian dishes and a soup.
She said she wanted to eat it without any adulteration, she really was craving for meat.
Wan Xiutong was stunned: "There are so many, can the two of us finish it?"
Jiang Fuyue nodded: "I can."
“…”
Soon, the food was served.
The presentation is exquisite and the aroma is fragrant, but the portion is average.
Jiang Fuyue waved his hand and added two more meat dishes.
Wan Xiutong almost choked.
Jiang Fuyue said seriously: "Eat slowly, you can order more if it's not enough."
“…”
Delicious food always brings joy. At first, Wan Xiutong was a little hesitant, but later she gradually adapted to it.
"Jiang Jiang, this braised beef pot is delicious. The beef is so soft and tender. Try it—"
"Oh! Isn't this the last in the grade?" A girl was standing on the stairs leading to the second floor, with her chin slightly raised and a mocking look in her eyes.
She was followed by a group of people, both men and women, all in school uniforms.
It looked like he had just finished eating and came down from the second floor.
"Li Xue, come and have dinner too..." Wan Xiutong put down her chopsticks and greeted her softly.
Jiang Fuyue ate his own food without even raising his eyelids.
Li Xue was ignored and furious. She ran downstairs and rushed to the table: "Jiang Fuyue, didn't you hear me?"
His tone was fierce and his eyes were unfriendly.
Wan Xiutong's neck shrank, "Li Xue, don't be like this..."
"Is it your turn to teach me a lesson? Haha... who do you think you are?"
"Who do you think you are?" Jiang Fuyue said lightly after swallowing the beef in his mouth.
It tastes really good...
Li Xue's eyes widened in disbelief: "How dare you talk to me like that?!"
"Why not?"
"Aren't you afraid that I'll expose your past?!"
"Please."
There was indeed a person named Li Xue in the original owner's memory, and the memory was quite profound.
When she was in the first year of high school, the original owner was not at the bottom of the class. On the contrary, she was able to be admitted to a key middle school like No. 1 Middle School, so her foundation was definitely not bad.
In addition, she is willing to work hard, so although her grades are not the best, they are around the middle.
At that time, Li Xue was the last one in the class. She relied on her family's wealth and connections to squeeze into the third class.
By chance, she discovered that Jiang Fuyue's family actually sold pancakes!
Then, she thought of a brilliant way to help herself escape the countdown——
Wouldn't it be better to let someone else be the last one?
Unfortunately, the original owner became this unlucky guy.
The "old secrets" that Li Xue mentioned were also considered shameful by the original owner.
But it’s not Jiang Fuyue’s.
"Okay," Li Xue crossed her arms and nodded, "Since I'm giving you the face but you don't want to take it, don't blame me for not keeping my promise."
Wan Xiutong and others were confused.
Jiang Fuyue remained calm throughout.
"By the way, are you treating us to dinner?" Li Xue suddenly asked Wan Xiutong.
"No, no... Jiang Jiang, please."
"Hey, the pancake girl has the money to eat at a place like this? How bizarre!"
Pancake girl?
who?
"Who else could it be? Of course it's our classmate Jiang Fuyue! Look, there's a pancake stand right at the back door of the school, right? Her parents run it, and it's a family tradition! I just want to know, does yours smell greasy? The kind with sauce and bacon?"
boom--
Everyone laughed.
Wan Xiutong was also surprised for a moment, but quickly returned to normal. She looked at Li Xue seriously and asked, "How can you talk like that?"
"Why can't I?"
"You! You're bullying me and insulting me!"
"That's right," Li Xue laughed crisply, "I was just bullying her! I was insulting her! What can you do to me?"
"You..." Wan Xiutong was so angry that her whole body was shaking and her eyes were red.
She pointed at Li Xue and wanted to fight back, but was at a loss for words.
Li Xue's eyes suddenly turned cold. She raised her hand to slap Wan Xiutong away, but the next second her wrist was grabbed and she was stopped in mid-air...
Wan Xiutong: It was obviously you who wanted to order more!
Sister Yue: I’m not, I don’t!
