Chapter 59: You didn’t even mention your brother, the top-ranked relative in your grade, sister…
"I'll wait for him to make his decision." Jiang Ci replied immediately.
Zhang Miao and Fang Chengyu exchanged a tacit glance, then turned back and asked hesitantly, "You two aren't planning on going to the same university, are you?"
"I do want to, but it's too difficult." Yu Xiang stretched out the last syllable.
"So you want to take the exam in the same city?" Fang Chengyu quickly realized it.
"That's right." Yu Xiang nodded. "What about you guys?"
"As long as we can get into college, it doesn't matter where." Zhang Miao rubbed his hands and said, "If possible, it would be best if we were in the same city as you guys, so we can get together often. Brother Yu, when you go to a new school, don't look for new students. Lao Fang and I will be sad."
Yu Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "No one else considers me as a younger brother except you guys, and I'm not some big boss."
"That's hard to say. You're such a good person, there's bound to be someone who'll chase you," Zhang Miao said, gesturing with his hands. "Besides, once you get to college, you can date freely. There's bound to be a lot of girls chasing you then."
When Zhang Miao said the second half of the sentence, Jiang Ci suddenly glanced at him.
However, he didn't notice at all and continued to talk to himself, "When you find a partner, will you still remember me and Lao Fang?"
"Am I the kind of person who forgets his friends when he sees a beautiful woman?" Yu Xiang asked back.
Zhang Miao chuckled, "Definitely not."
The topic was soon forced to be interrupted as the bell rang.
Although Yu Xiang hasn't decided on a specific goal yet, he still has to live his life as usual, drowning in a sea of questions every day.
After entering the final review period in the third year of high school, each of them had a thick stack of review materials on their desks, and the amount of homework also increased exponentially. It was quite boring, but also quite fulfilling.
This kind of life continued until the end of August, when the new batch of first- and second-year high school students arrived to register.
The school finally has some more popularity, but the senior year has its own building, so the popularity of the freshmen and sophomores has little to do with them.
Until school officially starts.
The group of freshmen somehow heard that there were a lot of "top students" in this year's senior year, and they often came during the breaks and squeezed by the windows to peek.
Among them, the class four suffered the most - after all, there were people like Jiang Ci, Yu Xiang and Ning Anyan.
After doing it so many times, the people in their class got used to it and could turn a blind eye to it, and even make a joke about it occasionally.
"Brother Yu, there are two freshman girls looking for you outside!" Zhang Miao shouted to Yu Xiang as he walked into the classroom. "They are so beautiful!"
"Oh my god, oh my god——" The other boys immediately let out strange cries.
Yu Xiang turned a deaf ear to this and handed Jiang Ci a freshly completed test paper: "Help me correct it, my eyes are blurry."
Jiang Ci took it naturally and spread it on his desk.
"Brother Yu Xiang!" At this time, a clear female voice came from the door.
This loud yet somewhat intimate name quickly attracted the attention of most people in the class. Everyone looked curiously at the girl who was standing at the door and waving frantically towards the inside.
She seemed afraid that Yu Xiang couldn't hear her, so she shouted again without thinking too much of it.
"Brother Yu, that junior seems to really know you." Zhang Miao walked over to Yu Xiang and whispered, "I'm not trying to trick you, but what if she really wants to see you for something?"
Yu Xiang had a vague sense of foreboding in his mind: "..." It must be said that this voice was very familiar.
Thinking of this, he and Jiang Ci both looked up towards the door——
After seeing the appearance of the person who came, he immediately showed a helpless expression of "as expected".
The high school girl who loudly called Yu Xiang's name at the door was also Jiang Ci's cousin, named Jiang Yuting.
This cousin has a close relationship with them - when she was a child, her grades were so poor that her mother sent her to Jiang Ci's house and asked Jiang Ci to help her with her studies.
At that time, Yu Xiang was with Jiang Ci every day, so naturally, Jiang Yuting became familiar with Yu Xiang.
Moreover, compared to her cold and fierce cousin who often forced her to do homework, she still preferred Yu Xiang, who was as energetic as the little sun, and often stuck to him.
But the more she clung to Yu Xiang, the worse Jiang Ci treated her. He even abused his power and bought her several exercise books out of his own pocket, calling them gifts. This scared her so much that she went to complain to Luo Fang.
Seeing Yu Xiang looking over, Jiang Yuting became even more excited: "Brother Yu Xiang, can you come out for a moment?!"
Yu Xiang turned to Jiang Ci with a dull expression: "Your sister, go and handle it yourself."
Jiang Ci nodded expressionlessly: "I think so too."
Jiang Ci stood up as he spoke, and did not forget to instruct Yu Xiang: "Just sit here and don't move. Wait for me to come back and correct your test paper."
"No problem." Yu Xiang immediately made an OK gesture.
"What do you mean by 'your sister'?" Zhang Miao was confused. "She's Brother Jiang's sister? Isn't he an only child?"
"Of course." Yu Xiang explained fluently.
"oh oh."
After Yu Xiang's explanation, Zhang Miao roughly understood what was going on, but the others were still in the dark and became more and more confused about Jiang Ci's behavior of getting up and going forward.
"Aren't you here to look for Yu Xiang? Why did Jiang Ci go there?"
"I don't know, could it be that Jiang Ci is interested in that girl?"
"Your statement is very dangerous, brother."
"If the handsome guy in our class gets caught up by a freshman in high school, I'll be furious."
"Don't scare yourself. It should just be a sister or something. She's already calling me brother...so why would Jiang Ci go over there?"
"Just take a look."
A few girls were discussing something and seemed to move casually to the side of the classroom door, trying to eavesdrop on some information.
But they didn't dare get too close, so they could only stand about two meters away from the door, wishing they had super hearing.
at the same time.
"Here you are, here you are. You are so handsome." The girl who came with Jiang Yuting patted her excitedly. "But why is it different from what you said? Isn't he a sunny milk dog?"
Jiang Yuting: "...because this is my evil poker-faced cousin, not my brother Yu Xiang."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ci also came in front of them and looked down at them condescendingly.
Although she was extremely reluctant, Jiang Yuting still called him "cousin."
Jiang Ci ignored her and asked directly, "Why are you here?"
"I finally got into the same school as you guys, and I can't even come say hello?" Jiang Yuting said bravely, "I was in military training for the past few days and didn't have the chance. I just found time to come over now."
Jiang Ci looked at her with his arms crossed, questioning this statement: "Your way of saying hello is to shout at the door?"
Jiang Yuting choked, and after a while she sighed, "So what? I didn't call you. I called you Brother Yu Xiang, but you insisted on coming out."
Jiang Ci: "..."
"Hey, don't stand here. Go and call him out. I have a gift for him." Jiang Yuting urged him.
"No." Jiang Ci spat out two words with a cold face.
"Why?"
"You'll disturb his studies."
"He's not studying! I saw it all!"
"He does."
The brother and sister stared at each other for a moment, and finally Yu Xiang couldn't bear to watch it anymore. He walked over and said, "Come on, let's talk outside."
"Why are you..." Before Jiang Ci could ask him why he came out, he was forcibly dragged away by Yu Xiang.
People were coming and going in the corridor, but fortunately no one was so uncivilized as to stop and eavesdrop, so they began their awkward chat without worry.
As soon as Yu Xiang arrived, Jiang Yuting immediately left her cousin aside and started chatting with Yu Xiang.
"Brother Yu Xiang, you will be my senior from now on. Can I ask you if I have any questions?"
Yu Xiang raised his hand to wipe the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead and said with a dry laugh, "It would be more reliable to ask your brother."
“But I just like asking you.”
"...Is it possible that I'm not very good at learning?"
"How could that be! I saw your results on the bulletin board. You're ranked over 200th in your grade! That's already impressive!"
Yu Xiang: “…” Sister, you didn’t say a word about the brother who was the top student in the grade.
"Can I come to see you more often in the future? Or how about we have dinner together in the evening?"
"No." Jiang Ci interrupted her forcefully, but he couldn't think of a suitable reason for a moment. After a moment's pause, he feigned calmness and glanced at the other girl, "Eat with your friend."
Jiang Yuting looked at him dissatisfiedly: "My friends can also join us, it will be more fun with more people, right Anya?"
The girl called Anya nodded hurriedly, her face almost flushed: "I, I, I can do it!"
"See, she said she agrees." Jiang Yuting said confidently.
"no."
"Why not?"
“It’s a bad influence.”
"If the teacher asks, I can just say you are my brother."
"But he's not." Jiang Ci pulled Yu Xiang back to him with an unhappy look on his face. "Besides, you're in another building, which is very inconvenient. Since you worked so hard to get into this school, you should work harder and strive to get into a good university."
"Look, he's started again." Jiang Yuting pouted and complained to Anya.
Jiang Ci: "..."
Anya was already immersed in the two beauties in front of her and couldn't help herself. She just nodded randomly without even hearing what Jiang Yuting said.
"Well...but Jiang—your cousin is right. You should study hard." Yu Xiang tried to smooth things over. "The competition in our school is very fierce. You have to work harder. Yes, you have to work harder."
Five minutes later.
Yu Xiang finally managed to get those two idiots to leave after much persuasion. He collapsed on his desk, exhausted. “Luckily, I’m already a senior in high school, and not in the same class as your sister.”
Jiang Ci: "Cousin."
"Okay, okay, cousin, cousin." Yu Xiang replied perfunctorily, "Aren't we all sisters?"
"Brother Jiang, was that your sister just now?" Zhang Miao dragged Fang Chengyu over to inquire, and a large group of people followed behind, all coming to join in the fun.
Jiang Ci helplessly looked at the faces filled with curiosity: "It's a cousin, come over to say hello."
"Then why did she go looking for Brother Yu right away?" The more Zhang Miao thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. "Could it be that she has a crush on our Brother Yu? That's right, after all, our Brother Yu is so charming, everyone loves him..."
"Stop, stop, stop, shut up. What the hell is going on here?" Yu Xiang interrupted him, unable to bear it any longer. "She's just a freshman in high school. Don't slander her."
Zhang Miao said aggrievedly, "But this is the age when love begins to blossom..."
