Chapter 102 Could they be secretly having an online romance?
marry.
marry? !
The two simple words seemed to contain some kind of magical incantation, echoing repeatedly in my ears.
Shi Miao stammered a bit.
"Getting married? How did you get married?"
Deng Yi was zipping up his windbreaker jacket with his head down. "You've handed over all your salary. What else would you be doing if not getting married?"
"However, that's not entirely accurate; we should indeed differentiate between different situations."
Deng Yi put his hands in his pockets, hunched his neck to ward off the howling wind on the playground, and muffled his voice inside the collar of his windbreaker.
"If they are young couples in the throes of new love, then it's an expression of affection."
"If you are preparing for marriage or are already married, it's about the sense of responsibility to build a family together."
Shi Miao asked expectantly, "What if they're friends?"
"friend?"
Deng Yi scoffed, speechless. "What friend would give away their bank card?"
"Either you have absolute trust in them and are afraid of wasting money, so you ask your friend to keep it safe, or you're looking for a scapegoat!"
"Didn't the anti-fraud police give an example of this situation last time they were promoting their work? They said that a suspect asked a friend to help transfer a sum of money, but it turned out to be money laundering, and the friend who helped was implicated."
Jiang Yingxu finished his speech on the podium.
The vice principal took the microphone, gave a final summary and outlook, and announced the disbandment of the gathering.
The classes immediately sprang into action, with the students at the back of the lines dispersing and heading towards the teaching building.
Distracted by this, Deng Yi cheered that she could finally go back to class without having to stand in the cold wind. Turning her head, she saw that Shi Miao had already walked against the flow of people towards Jiang Yingxu.
"Come on, what are you looking at?" Xia Hui called out as she passed by.
Deng Yi said "oh" and followed Xia Hui, thinking to herself, "I forgot to tell Shi Miao earlier. She was only talking about the situation between same-sex friends."
If it's someone of the opposite sex...
They've already given me their bank cards, what kind of ordinary friends are they!
-
Jiang Yingxu stepped off the stage but didn't leave; the head of the teaching department called him back.
After the vice principal came down, the three of them stood in a sheltered spot on the platform and chatted quietly.
Shi Miao didn't get too close.
She confidently tugged at a blade of grass growing on the edge of the platform, thinking, "That's how trustworthy King Cat is; he can keep Jiang Yingxu's bank card safe!"
The system gave a strange laugh.
How do you know Jiang Yingxu only gave you the card out of trust?
Shi Miao was shocked: [Could it be that he's also trying to launder money by lying to me?]
System: [Actually, there's another possibility.]
Shi Miao: [?]
The system whispered, "It's very common for humans to adopt godparents; maybe he wants you to be his mother..."
“Vast and insignificant”.
Jiang Yingxu had just walked over when he heard the system teasing the cat. His brow twitched, fearing that the little cat was really being fooled, so he immediately spoke up.
Shi Miao was immediately drawn to the attention.
Cats, with their tiny brains, are basically single-threaded creatures.
She looked at Jiang Yingxu, not having heard the system's last few words, and casually asked, "[What does he want?]"
Jiang Yingxu had already walked up to him.
His eyes were as black as ink as he gazed down quietly. He reached out naturally, his fingertips brushing through Shi Miao's long, black hair, and plucked a small tuft of snow-white, light cotton from her hair.
I wonder which student's cold-sensitive cotton-padded jacket it was blowing from.
Are you cold?
As he asked, he loosened his fingers, letting the cold wind blow away the little cotton ball, and moved his fingers down to gently touch her slightly cool cheek.
It is sensing the temperature.
It also reveals an unspeakable intimacy.
Shi Miao shook her head. "I'm dressed warmly enough, I'm not cold."
The winter uniforms at No. 1 High School are surprisingly thick and warm, and the price is also cheap. No wonder Xia Hui and her friends joked that they would buy two more sets before graduation, and after removing the school badges from the chests, they could wear them as loungewear for several more years.
Jiang Yingxu nodded. "Let's go back to class."
The two walked side by side toward the teaching building.
Shi Miao took a few steps, then belatedly realized the system was silent. Puzzled, she poked it: "System? Where's your computer? Are you still online?"
System: […is here.]
System: [Jiang Yingxu's gaze was a bit strange just now.]
Just like the last time it frantically woke up Shi Miao.
His gaze was deep, as if he could see it through the mist.
The system felt uneasy, as if it were being spied on, and the data flow became disordered for a moment.
Shi Miao: [Strange?]
She tilted her head to look at the boy next to her, and after her gaze lingered for a while, she received a slightly puzzled look from him.
Ahead is a small staircase.
Jiang Yingxu grabbed her wrist. "Be careful."
Shi Miao hopped across the steps, confidently declaring, "[He's not surprised, System, is your RAM too full? Maybe you should clean it up?]"
The system hesitated before saying, "[I'll perform a virus scan.]"
It went to fiddle with itself and became quiet for a while.
Shi Miao shook Jiang Yingxu's hand, which was still holding her wrist, and asked, "What do the vice principal and the others want with you?"
“There was a parent of a student in the first year of high school who wanted her son to get into university through a competition-based admission program and wanted me to tutor him.”
Jiang Yingxu said calmly, "Use the evening self-study time to go to the empty classrooms on the first-year high school side and charge 1,000 yuan per hour."
Three national gold medals and this first-place finish in the national competition have finally brought this high school senior, who is now a competition coach who graduated from a prestigious university, into the sights of wealthy parents.
Especially after learning from Lai Cheng that Jiang Yingxu also had the ability to predict exam questions.
The parent immediately approached the head of the teaching department, asking him to help make the connection.
Shi Miao is no longer the little cat who had no concept of human prices.
She has earned some money in the past few days.
Zhu Ting helped her set the price.
Video calls start at 500, problem-solving adds another 500, and helping with chatting and relaying messages adds another 300.
I receive one or two phone calls a night, ranging from a few hundred to several thousand.
But pet cats don't always have problems.
But you can teach for a long time!
There are three evening self-study sessions at No. 1 Middle School, plus about three hours of break time, which means it costs 3,000 yuan a night!
Shi Miao did the math, her eyes widening in surprise. "Did you agree?"
Jiang Yingxu: "I'm considering it."
Shi Miao was worried for him, "What else do you need to consider?"
"Classes are held during evening self-study time. Classes end at 9:30 every day, and I don't get home until 10:00."
Jiang Yingxu slightly turned his body to block the biting wind blowing from a vent, his gaze falling on Shi Miao's fair profile, and he said in a low voice:
"I don't have time to spend with my cat."
Oh dear, this person!
Domesticated humans are being far too clingy to cats.
This is almost delaying our important business!
Shi Miao put on a stern face and seriously lectured him: "Don't you know that cats are solitary animals? Cats don't want you to accompany them all the time. You'd better agree."
Jiang Yingxu lowered his long eyelashes, looking somewhat forlorn.
"It's because I can't bear to leave her."
"Classes are actually quite boring."
"Miaomiao, do you think my cat would want to stay with me?"
The kitten was too young to understand what it meant to pretend or to retreat in order to advance.
The systems that can be identified are busy checking for viruses themselves.
So the innocent kitten immediately patted its chest and promised.
"She'll definitely agree!"
Jiang Yingxu gently curled his lips.
"That's good."
He recalled the past two nights when the kitten had been hiding from him and slapping his phone with its paw pads.
Occasionally, a glance reveals a page filled with green and white chat bubbles, clearly a WeChat chat interface.
The cat is addicted to chatting.
But the object of her affections wasn't him, nor He Rongyi, nor any of the girls in her class.
They even made a WeChat call from the other end.
Although the cat frantically pressed the silence button after it only rang once, Jiang Yingxu still heard it.
He asked a few questions.
The kitten pressed its furry belly against the phone, speaking incoherently.
"..."
Jiang Yingxu stared at her guilty, folded-up little ears, and an extremely absurd thought arose in his mind—
Is this kitten secretly having an online romance?
