Chapter08
"Do you fucking want to die?" As soon as he finished speaking, He Yu reached out and grabbed her.
Jiang Xu dodged to the side and threw her schoolbag on the ground. With a "pop" sound, the dust was stirred up. The people around her were startled by her and subconsciously took a few steps back.
Jiang Xu thought about those words and became angrier and angrier. He pinched his wrist and looked like he wanted to hit someone. Unexpectedly, he kicked He Yu.
He Yu fell to the ground in a daze before he could even react. Jiang Xu looked down at him, and He Yu gritted his teeth, "What are you guys doing standing there? Get this woman back into the alley."
As soon as He Jin and the others went out, they saw Jiang Xu huddled in the crowd, having heard every word. Song Li originally wanted to hit him when he heard that sentence, but suddenly he saw Jiang Xu kick He Yu with... quite a lot of force, and several people paused.
Seeing that Jiang Xu seemed to be ready to challenge everyone, He Jin looked cold and walked over quickly.
"Come here." The two people next to him subconsciously made way when they heard the voice.
Jiang Xu heard a familiar voice and was about to turn around when he was suddenly pulled out. His nose touched a warm and dry chest. He had changed his jersey.
"Hey, Young Master Yu wasn't scared by the beating last semester? Didn't he stay in the hospital long enough?" Song Li also caught up with him. His tone of voice was still nonchalant, but it revealed a different kind of disdain than before.
He Yu was instinctively a little frightened when he saw them coming. He stood up and said to them fiercely, "Just wait for me."
Look at what childish language he used. Jiang Xu almost rolled her eyes to the sky and was about to curse back, but He Jin held her head and patted her gently, as if to comfort her. She suddenly fell silent.
Jiang Xu buried his head in the man's arms, still angry, his eyes were red.
Her delicate flower is so beautiful, why did He Yu scold him?
Even though He Yu was unwilling to accept it, seeing He Jin's calm yet chilling eyes behind Jiang Xu, he could only forcefully say, "Let's go."
The group of bad boys were obviously frightened by He Jin's appearance and immediately followed him.
He forgot what happened last semester, but they didn't.
The group walked quickly and the scene returned to calm. He Jin lowered his eyes, picked up the girl's schoolbag that had fallen to the ground, dusted it off, and handed it to her.
Jiang Xu took it and carried it on his back, still with his head lowered. His eyes were red. He didn't know if He Jin had heard what he said. He tugged at the corner of his clothes and whispered, "He Jin, I was so scared just now."
Xu Zhixin: ...Listen to me, would anyone believe this?
Song Li, who was about to turn around and praise him:...The look in your eyes just now seemed as if you wanted to challenge everyone in the audience, you didn't look scared at all.
But He Jin fell for it, "It's okay, don't be afraid."
“…”
Suddenly, the girl's slightly cold fingertips touched his neck, causing a slight tingling sensation. He then heard the girl mutter, "It's not bleeding anymore? Does it hurt?"
Jiang Xu raised her eyes and met his dark ones. Both of them were stunned. Jiang Xu reacted first and took out the iodine and cotton swabs from the bag hanging on her hand. She curled her eyes and said, "Wipe it and it won't hurt tomorrow."
He Jin let the girl move, the haze in his eyes dissipated little by little, "Yeah."
The few people watching from the sidelines, who were being ignored, couldn't help but gasp: "Hey, when do you think they can be together?"
"After all this, aren't you more of a couple than a couple?"
"That's right, the only thing missing is the mouth."
“…”
After treating the wound, Jiang Xu took out a little yellow duck towel and a thermos cup from the bag and handed them to He Jin. "This is for you. From now on, you can't accept towels and water from other girls."
He Jin looked at the two little yellow duck patterns and chuckled softly, "Okay."
The two people on the side kept shaking their heads. It was hopeless, absolutely hopeless. These two people were doomed together.

The teachers at No. 3 Middle School have always been very efficient in marking papers. The results can be released before the afternoon of the next day after the exam. The rankings for individual subjects and the overall scores can be included, which makes students complain bitterly.
Their class teacher, Wang Yuguang, always likes to spend a class after the big exam to analyze the results, the changes in rankings, praise those who have made progress, and scold those who have regressed significantly. Finally, he says something that he thinks is very inspiring, lamenting how fast time flies, and that he wants to talk about the things he experienced when he was in school when he has time.
Maybe you can listen with great interest at the beginning, but later you will find that it is all about the same things and in the end you can recite the general idea.
The last class in the morning was physics. Wang Yuguang happened to have received his grades. Wearing reading glasses, he had difficulty reading them on his mobile phone, but he still insisted on reading them out one by one.
"First place, Jiang Xu, total score 687, second in grade."
As soon as Wang Yuguang finished speaking, the classmates all looked at her with admiration in their eyes and applauded. Jiang Xu smiled at them without much reaction.
Wang Yuguang also smiled brightly and raised his hand, signaling them to be quiet.
"Second place, Wang De, total score 659, tenth in the grade."
“………”
After reading the rankings, Wang Yuguang began his long speech: "Ah, classmates all know that the current college entrance examination adopts the 3+3 model, which is equivalent to not distinguishing between arts and science. Students can choose courses according to their areas of expertise. Except for Chinese, mathematics and English, all other subjects are scored. As for what scoring is, the teacher has already explained it clearly before.
In our class, most of the students chose physics, and you guys have made the teacher proud. You all scored very high on the monthly exam, but I want to especially praise Jiang Xu. Jiang Xu was assigned 100 points in physics, and the actual score was also full marks. This is very rare, and there are only a handful of such people in the entire grade. Let's applaud!"
Wang Yuguang's face was beaming with joy, and he looked at Jiang Xu with eyes full of satisfaction and appreciation.
Wang Yuguang took the lead in applauding, and the classmates also clapped in cooperation, and thunderous applause resounded in the class.
"Okay, okay, I hope everyone can learn more from Jiang Xu in the future. Then let's praise the students who have made progress..."
“…”
"Baby Xu, you are so awesome! The monthly exam papers are all from our school, they are all so amazing, I didn't expect you to be so talented! I worship you, great god!" Wu Yunyun was very excited, she didn't expect that she would make such a big shot friend.
"How much did Mr. He get in the exam this time?" Qiu Tian suddenly asked.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xu, who was originally in flight mode, suddenly had a full signal.
Wu Yunyun said, "Brother He has been performing consistently and is still number one in the grade. I heard he's ranked over 700. The grade rankings haven't come out yet, but they should be out this afternoon."
Seeing Jiang Xu's piercing gaze, Ji Jing suddenly jokingly asked, "How's it going? Did you catch up?"
After spending some time together, Jiang Xu discovered that Ji Jing was actually quite lively. Smiling, he leaned close to her ear and whispered, "It's almost there. There's nothing you can't get if your deskmate steps in!"
Ji Jing smiled softly and said, "Congratulations."
In the afternoon, the grade list came out and was posted on the school bulletin board. When no one was there, Jiang Xu walked over and found the column for the second year of high school. The one at the top was He Jin, with a total score of 702.5, a difference of 15.5 points. The gap seemed a bit big.
But the two of them were standing next to each other, and they looked quite a good match. Jiang Xu took out his cell phone and secretly wanted to take a photo.
"Jiang Xiaoxu, what are you doing here secretly?" Xu Zhixin appeared from the bulletin board at some point, scaring Jiang Xu so much that her hands shook and she couldn't hold the phone firmly.
When Jiang Xu thought her phone was going to fall to the ground and break into pieces, a hand caught it. She looked up along the hand and saw the boy's beautiful eyes curved with a smile, and there was a little girl in his eyes.
Jiang Xu subconsciously covered her nose. Ahhhh, this is too unfair. Why did Brother Jin change his style today? He flirts with people without knowing it. It makes people unable to control themselves. Hey, I really want to kiss him.
He Jin handed him the phone: "Are you scared?"
Jiang Xu nodded, then shook his head, clearly stunned.
He Jin smiled and said, "My English is a little poor."
"How...how do you know?"
"Hey Jiang Xiaoxu, you don't know how much everyone in your grade is talking about you. You're the new god-level figure. You wrote your own exam for the monthly exam at No. 3 Middle School. It's so abnormal. Only the two of you can pull up several tens of points from others," Song Li said, leaning close to Jiang Xu's ear. "Wasn't there a vote before for who could catch up with Brother Jin? You jumped directly to first place."
“…”
Jiang Xu suddenly had an idea and jumped to He Jin's side. Her bright eyes looked at him with starry glints, like a cunning little fox. "Brother Jin, let me discuss something with you!"
He Jin raised his eyebrows and responded.
"Look at your English! You can give me some tutoring. My tuition is super expensive."
Hearing this, He Jin lowered his eyes and couldn't stop laughing. This girl really treated him as a poor student who needed financial support. Well, at least the benefits should be kept within the family.
"Jiang Xiaoxu, our brother Jin is not a money-loving person..." Before Song Li finished speaking, he heard He Jin hum, and he seemed to be in a very happy mood.
“………”
Song Li wondered if he had heard it wrong. People who fall in love are always so unpredictable...
——
After each exam, the first and second grade students would hold a meeting in the auditorium to summarize the learning progress of half a semester. Then the top students of the two grades would speak as student representatives, and finally scholarships would be awarded.
The auditorium was full of people, all discussing and noisy.
"Holy crap, why has the scholarship for the top scorer actually been increased to 8,000?!!"
"I'm not saying how come No. 3 Middle School suddenly has so much money this semester? They've renovated the cafeteria and increased scholarships. The principal is really spending a lot of money to attract students..."
"Eight thousand a month is ridiculously high, isn't it? Who's got a rich guy hooking up with No. 3 Middle School? Isn't Mr. He going to be a millionaire after graduating from high school?"
"Who knows?"
“…”
Jiang Xu vaguely heard a few people chatting next door. Old Jiang was very efficient. When she thought of He Jin's happy expression when he received the scholarship sign, she felt very satisfied.
"Next, we would like to invite He Jin, a representative of the second-year students, to come to the stage and share his study methods with the students."
Jiang Xu sat up straight and looked at the stage. He Jin walked onto the stage somewhat lazily. There was a quiet commotion from the audience. Some girls had shining eyes, and they wished they could see through the podium.
He Jin didn't have a manuscript in hand, but instead supported himself on the podium with both hands, like a seasoned professor, completely unfazed. He adjusted the microphone, placing it right in front of his lips. Then, the boy's slightly cold voice was heard: "Hello everyone, I'm He Jin from Class 7, Grade 12."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was warm applause from the audience, and even screams from girls, which lasted for a full half minute. Compared with the scattered applause from the audience when the principal took the stage to speak just now, the principal said that there would be no harm without comparison.
The head teacher kept waving his hands but to no avail. Finally, He Jin made a stop gesture to the audience, and the applause immediately stopped.
I’m afraid there’s no other place in L City that can turn a lecture venue into a concert.
