When Jiang Li and Lu Jiming arrived at school together, Jiang Li was refreshed and didn't even break a sweat.
He doesn't look like someone who has run 20 kilometers at all.
As for Lu Jiming...
He walked with a limp...
It had become a dead dog with only one breath left.
I just want to die right here!
There are still fifteen minutes before class starts.
There's no time to go to the cafeteria for lunch.
"You go back to the classroom first," Jiang Li said to Lu Jiming. "I'll go to the cafeteria to buy some breakfast."
Lu Jiming probably didn't have the strength to go any further, but this short distance was no challenge for Jiang Li.
"No need." Lu Jiming patted his backpack, looking like he had been prepared all along. "My uncle had anticipated this situation, so he got up early to prepare breakfast for us."
"Ayan is so good to you," Jiang Li couldn't help but exclaim.
This thoughtful care made her miss her fellow students.
However, my fellow disciples have all gone down the mountain to gain experience, and they are no longer on the mountain. I don't know when I will have the chance to see them again.
Lu Jiming's lips twitched involuntarily; he desperately wanted to question Jiang Li...
Don't you have any idea who my uncle is really good to?
He gets this treatment only because of you.
"Is there any possibility..." Lu Jiming snorted arrogantly, a hint of sourness in his voice, "My uncle is actually good to you, not to me?"
Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, then said speechlessly, "Alright, stop joking. Ayan and I are not related, why would he be nice to me? It doesn't make any sense."
“Although you’ve said you’re even, the debt of saving my life still applies.” Although Lu Jiming’s words were somewhat inaccurate, he at least wanted Jiang Li to know how much Lu Shiyan cared about her. “He naturally cares more about you than about others.”
“You’re wrong.” Jiang Li felt that Lu Jiming was overthinking things. “Ayan and I are in a cooperative relationship now. Maybe it’s because he slept well last night after using a sleeping talisman that he was in the mood to make breakfast. It actually has nothing to do with the two of us. He just made too much food.”
Lu Jiming: "..."
Although Jiang Li was definitely wrong, her uncle had prepared breakfast specifically for her.
However, he did notice something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out exactly what it was.
It turns out that his uncle looked particularly energetic this morning.
I seem to be in a much better mood than before.
After taking the lunchbox from Lu Jiming, the two of them went to the classroom one after the other.
Jiang Xueqi had arrived at school long ago, and upon seeing the two people, she couldn't help but clench her fists.
She hated it so much.
However, seeing the two of them walking over, Jiang Xueqi walked up to Lu Jiming and handed him a bottle of water. "Lu, you actually ran to school with Jiang Li! That's amazing! Look at you, you're all sweaty. Here, have some water."
"No need." Lu Jiming didn't take it. After sitting down, he took out a cup of soy milk from his bag. "I have something to drink."
Jiang Xueqi gave a dry laugh and withdrew the water.
Turning her head, she handed the water to Jiang Li, saying, "Jiang Li also runs to school, so you can have this water."
The condescending tone made Jiang Li snort, then she took out the same soy milk as Lu Jiming's, "No need, I have some too."
Jiang Xueqi's face turned even paler.
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Xueqi said again, "We all live quite close by. I see you guys running to school quite easily. How about I run with you tomorrow?"
Jiang Li looked at Jiang Xueqi suspiciously, feeling that this was not something she would bring up.
Although Jiang Xueqi likes Lu Jiming, she loves herself even more.
How could she bear to suffer like that?
"Can you handle it?" Jiang Li took a small bun from the lunchbox and took a bite.
The delicious broth made Jiang Li squint her eyes in happiness.
It tastes better than the steamed buns in the cafeteria.
Ah Yan's cooking skills are truly amazing.
This chef is a real talent, but his abilities were wasted on being a domineering CEO.
Jiang Xueqi bit her lip and said firmly, "If you can do it, how could I not?"
Jiang Li ate another steamed bun, and after finishing it, she said, "Then whatever makes you happy. We won't wait for you. If you want to come with us, you'd better prepare in advance."
"I see."
Soon, the school bell rang.
Everyone sat obediently in their seats, waiting for the teacher to appear.
Jiang Li quickly finished her breakfast before the teacher came in.
Lu Jiming had just finished eating a steamed bun when he turned his head and saw Jiang Li's empty lunchbox...
The pupil is in an earthquake.
That's way too fast!
"Teacher, someone is eating in class." A girl suddenly stood up while the teacher was lecturing.
This is a Chinese language class.
The Chinese language teacher is also the homeroom teacher.
The homeroom teacher is usually very strict, and he would never tolerate anyone eating in his class.
"Who?" the homeroom teacher asked with a stern face.
"Her!" The girl pointed at Jiang Li, a hint of malice flashing in her eyes. "Jiang Li disrespects you, teacher, during class and secretly eats under the table."
Jiang Li: "???"
She was truly wronged this time.
This was the first time the homeroom teacher had the opportunity to look at Jiang Li closely.
Unlike other girls, Jiang Li was truly without makeup, yet she was much prettier than those female classmates who wore no makeup.
Her eyelashes were very long, and when she blinked, they looked like a small fan fluttering.
It looks very nice and has a friendly feel to it.
The principal has already spoken to him, the homeroom teacher, and told him not to pay special attention to Jiang Li; let her do whatever she wants.
So now that someone has suddenly filed a complaint against Jiang Li, he is in a bit of a predicament.
However, we still need to go through the process and ask.
"Jiang Li, did you skip breakfast this morning?" The homeroom teacher's voice was very gentle. "It is indeed bad for your health not to eat breakfast, but eating in class will affect your classmates' learning. Please be careful next time."
“Teacher, I haven’t eaten anything.” Jiang Li’s eyes were clear, and her words were articulated.
Indeed, there was no sign that she had eaten anything.
"You're lying! I clearly saw you eating!" The girl was displeased upon hearing this. "You're still denying it in front of everyone."
"There's a saying that goes, 'Catch the thief with the stolen goods.' Since you're accusing me of eating..." Jiang Li's expression darkened slightly, "Then produce the evidence."
The female student snorted, then looked at the homeroom teacher, "Teacher, the evidence is in her desk. We just need to check her desk to find out!"
So the homeroom teacher went to check Jiang Li's desk.
There was nothing there.
"How could this be?" The girl was stunned, then she said anxiously, "I clearly saw you take the food out of your desk, how could you not have it?"
"You mean this?" Lu Jiming suddenly took out his lunchbox. "I think you're seeing things. Jiang Li finished her breakfast before class. If you want to slander her, at least come up with a better excuse, okay?"
Seeing that the girl was unwilling to give up, Jiang Li smiled and suddenly used her trump card, "Weren't you just playing on your phone? If you really saw me eating, you would definitely have taken a picture as evidence. In that case, take out your phone and everything will be clear, right?"
The homeroom teacher's expression changed as well. "What? You were actually using your phone during class?"
The girl instantly showed a look of horror.
This is probably a classic case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead, or lifting a stone only to drop it on one's own foot.
