Chapter 122 No, I don't understand!



Jiang Li was busy reflecting on herself, completely unaware that the person next to the principal's face had darkened.

What does it mean to...?

Getting close to you will bring bad luck?!

The principal naturally noticed the displeasure of the person next to him, and he tried to give Jiang Li a suggestive look, signaling her to tone it down...

result……

The girl was lost in thought and didn't even look at him!

headmaster:"……"

I'm so tired.

However, these are people who could potentially help their school achieve greater success and reach new heights...

As long as nothing serious happens...

Well, let her be.

"Um..." The principal opened his mouth, then turned to the person next to him and said, "Ahem... Don't keep such a long face. You're a respected figure in the education field, are you going to be so petty as to argue with a little girl?"

The middle-aged man's face turned ashen. "Does this have anything to do with who he is? Who wouldn't find this kind of talk unlucky?"

The middle-aged man is a relatively well-known scholar who is frequently invited to give lectures at various universities.

His nature was naturally aloof and proud.

Because he was familiar with the principal and had been staying here recently, he decided to come and experience the campus atmosphere of Sacred Heart College on his own.

I was quite satisfied at first...

result……

Jiang Li had excellent hearing and overheard their conversation. She added coolly, "Although no one likes being told that by me, are you going to deny... the fact that you've been having a lot of bad luck lately?"

The middle-aged man was taken aback by what Jiang Li said.

Then he couldn't speak anymore.

indeed……

He recently went home to rest because he's been having a lot of bad luck.

He was unable to continue his scheduled speech because the venue suddenly had a problem.

The interviews that had been planned were also canceled for various reasons.

Because he had free time in his schedule, he was in a car accident on his way home...

Although it's not particularly serious, it still requires a period of rest and recuperation.

Even staying at home and not going out doesn't prevent all sorts of little troubles from arising.

The water was turned off while I was taking a shower, the kettle exploded while I was emptying the water, and my chopsticks broke while I was eating...

There are countless examples like this.

When Jiang Li said those words, he hadn't thought of any of this, but being treated like a plague god for no reason would make anyone unhappy.

But now that Jiang Li has said those words, his heart skipped a beat.

Did this little girl say that because she sensed something?

He thought about it that way, but he quickly changed his mind.

How could that be...

She's just a high school student; maybe she just stumbled upon this by chance and said it offhand.

Ever since Jiang Li said those words, the principal has been watching the expressions of the people around him.

That appearance...

This gave the principal some ideas.

Could it be that Jiang Li was right?

Just then, the waiter came to deliver their food.

The principal smiled and decided to let bygones be bygones and have a good meal first.

"Why don't you try our school's food and see how it tastes?" the principal said cheerfully.

The man was also hungry, so he didn't say anything more. He picked up a tissue, wiped his chopsticks, and prepared to eat.

result……

The chopsticks broke in two as the tissue was removed.

man:"……"

headmaster:"!!!"

What's going on?

Those chopsticks are made of stainless steel!

It broke with just a rub, isn't that a bit outrageous?

The principal's expression changed slightly, and he immediately shouted at the restaurant staff, "What kind of work are you doing? You don't even know how to check the tableware! Do you want to quit?"

Upon hearing this, the waiter immediately brought over new tableware.

The principal took a look, and finding no problems, handed it to the man next to him.

This time, the chopsticks worked fine. He poured himself a glass of water, and then the glass exploded.

Luckily the water was warm, otherwise...

They'll definitely burn something bad.

"Jiang Li is right, you really are unlucky." The principal couldn't help but sigh, taking a tissue to help wipe the table.

The man's already unpleasant complexion became even worse.

After tidying up the table, the principal poured a glass of water from his own cup and gave it to the other person, saying, "Have a sip of water to calm yourself down. Sometimes when you're down on your luck, even drinking cold water can cause problems."

The other person paused as they reached for the cup, then said with a dark expression, "Forget it, you drink it yourself. I'm afraid I'll choke to death if I drink it."

The principal didn't say much, and actually withdrew his hand, taking a sip himself.

"Cough...cough cough...cough cough cough..."

In an instant, the principal began to cough violently.

He didn't know how much time had passed before he finally stopped his painful coughing.

He looked across at the other side with teary eyes, "You didn't choke to death, but I almost choked and coughed to death."

After saying that...

The principal immediately stood up and strode towards Jiang Li.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Li immediately stood up and took a few steps back.

headmaster:"……"

Is it really necessary?

Jiang Li looked at the principal with a serious expression, "If you have something to say, just stand there and say it. Please don't come any closer."

She doesn't want to do things that drain her physical energy right now.

"Do you know something?" the principal asked Jiang Li with a serious expression.

"I don't know!" Jiang Li shook her head like a rattle. "We are in school now, and we must promote a scientific socialist worldview. We absolutely cannot engage in feudal superstition, so... I don't know anything."

headmaster:"……"

I didn't believe your nonsense!

"I'm being serious with you. What exactly happened?" The principal, not in the mood for idle chatter with Jiang Li, couldn't help but ask.

From the very beginning, he dared not underestimate Jiang Li.

At first, it was because of her exams, but later, she just wandered around the school and somehow stumbled upon a murder case.

He didn't believe it was a coincidence.

Moreover, when they found the evidence, didn't they say it was calculated by Jiang Li?

Connecting these points, his gaze towards Jiang Li became even more serious.

Jiang Li looked at her with a bit of helplessness. Finally, she shrugged and said, "This gentleman is just having too much bad luck, which is why nothing goes smoothly for him. But it doesn't really matter. At most, he'll just be a little unlucky and suffer a bit, but it won't endanger his life. Don't worry."

headmaster:"……"

After hearing what you said, I'm even more worried!

"Do you really know anything about that kind of thing?" The principal looked around. Although there weren't many people around, he still deliberately lowered his voice.

Although he was a proponent of scientific socialism, it does not mean that he did not acknowledge the existence of certain non-scientific things.

After all, some things simply cannot be explained by science.

Especially since there is an elderly Buddhist woman in his family, he naturally doesn't have any disbelief or resistance towards this topic.

"No, I don't understand!" Jiang Li replied seriously. "We must believe in science and reject feudal superstition. As the principal, how could you make such a basic mistake?"

headmaster:"……"

The middle-aged man next to her seemed to have thought of something. He glanced at Jiang Li and tentatively said, "Shall we talk outside the school?"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Okay."

headmaster:"……"

Middle-aged man: "..."

Isn't it a bit too fast for your attitude to change like this?
