Chapter 606 The converging threads(1/2)
"Ji Xuan?"
Hearing this name, Geng Lu thought of studying and eating early.
She finally found a chance to be alone with Jiang Ning without the interruption of Xue Yuantong and the twins.
As a result, Ji Xuan, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, wanted to catch up with her. Geng Lu didn't want to waste time. She and Ji Xuan were just ordinary classmates in the past.
"Come just come." Geng Lu didn't care much.
He Qingtang said: "I was about to take a nap at noon, and he chatted with me privately from the junior high school class group. Unexpectedly, he was a student from No. 1 Middle School who actually transferred to No. 4 Middle School."
The relationship between the classmates in their junior high school class is very harmonious and enjoyable.
But since entering high school, the originally harmonious classes have occasionally developed differences in circles, such as the first middle school, the second middle school, the fourth middle school, and the students who cannot enter the urban high school and can only study in technical secondary school. These circles will no longer exist.
The happy class was cut into pieces.
Most of the people still speaking in the group are students from No. 1 and No. 2 middle schools, and Ji Xuan is the dazzling presence among them.
As a student of No. 4 Middle School, He Qingtang is invisibly inferior to him in terms of status and status. He only occasionally joins the group chat because he misses his former classmates' friendship.
Geng Lu gave up the small group completely. In the past year, after being pointed out by Jiang Ning, she concentrated on painting. She first tried to take private orders in Tieba to hone her skills.
It was very hard at that time, she couldn't make any money, and her orders were often passed over. Later, through Jiang Ning's introduction, she got to know the marketing departments of some companies, so she was able to have stable orders.
Painting, studying, and yoga completely occupied her life, so Geng Lu didn't care about her former junior high school classmates.
He Qingtang: "He asked us to go to the playground for a walk during evening self-study to help him get familiar with No. 4 Middle School. Will you go?"
Geng Lu shook her head: "No."
She looked at Jiang Ning, who was playing ball next to her, with a happy look on her face: "I have something to do tonight."
He Qingtang heard this: "Well, if you don't want to go, then I won't go."
In fact, He Qingtang is very knowledgeable. Since he only knows No. 4 Middle School, he can also communicate on his mobile phone. Why do he choose to go to the playground during evening self-study time?’
She lowered her voice: "Actually, I don't really like those people."
The other party's purpose is obviously not very simple.
The two girls looked at each other and smiled.
When He Qingtang was in junior high school, she was not taken seriously by the outstanding male classmates in the class because of her ugly appearance. Now that she has entered high school, she has become more and more beautiful, and those boys are chasing her in turn.
She is very clear about that kind of thinking.
They had just agreed to reject Ji Xuan's invitation when they saw a familiar figure coming from in front of the podium.
After finishing school in the afternoon, Ji Xuan had nothing to do and went for a walk in the corridor. He was in Class 9, very close to Class 8, and he stopped by to visit Geng Lu.
Then I was told that the other party went to play table tennis.
Ji Xuan's skills at table tennis were average, but that didn't stop him from joining in the fun, so he strolled all the way to the playground.
After arriving here, he keenly discovered that the boy who was with Geng Lu in the morning was actually playing table tennis with a girl with a slim figure and a pretty face?
Could it be that she is a senior in high school?
With this speculation in Ji Xuan's mind, he looked at Geng Lu next to him and the girl playing table tennis with her.
Ji Xuan watched for a long time before he recognized the girl as He Qingtang. He was a rustic girl in his junior high school class. He didn't expect that she would turn out to be so beautiful now.
He quickly walked to the side and raised his hand to say hello: "Geng Lu, you are playing table tennis!"
He Qingtang was slightly surprised: "How come my old classmate has time to come to the playground to play? I used to ask you to play table tennis, but you never wanted to play."
Ji Xuan laughed dryly and did not reply.
On the nearby table tennis table, Guo Ran reached out to grab the table tennis ball and gasped: "I won't play anymore. I'll go back to the dormitory and take a shower."
She looked at Geng Lu next to her, then at Jiang Ning, and asked, "Would you like to go together?"
Jiang Ning: "Geng Lu, I'm leaving first."
After finishing speaking, Jiang Ning and Guo Ran left the playground together.
After the two left, Ji Xuan felt happy. He always felt that this boy was a bit of an eyesore, but now that he was gone, he felt much more comfortable.
Now, it's just him and the two beauties left in the venue, isn't it wonderful?
After playing table tennis, he sent a message to Ye Mengchen to show off today's experience, and by the way touted his popularity, which would definitely make Ye Mengchen extremely jealous.
Ji Xuan is a greedy person, and he is obviously not satisfied with just getting closer to two girls.
He looked at Jiang Ning's retreating back and the extremely moving and graceful figure beside him, and he deliberately teased:
"Aren't you classmates? We were walking together in the morning. Why didn't I ask you to walk together just now? Isn't that interesting?"
Geng Lu frowned and was about to retort. The next moment, Jiang Ning in the distance suddenly turned around and waved to her.
Geng Lu's frown instantly relaxed and was replaced by gentleness: "Bye."
She held He Qingtang in one hand and a table tennis racket in the other, and ran quickly towards Jiang Ning.
Ji Xuan was left where he was, looking at the empty table tennis table, wishing he could slap himself.
In the distance, Jiang Jingjing and others were watching, and he thought to himself: "It's troublesome, right? I'll help you."
…
Evening self-study period.
Chai Wei, leaning on crutches, found Shan Xiao to discuss the lost gold ring and implement a plan to sue the owner of the goldsmith shop.
After the discussion, Chai Wei used crutches again and found Liu Chuandao to discuss a joint plan to fight against Jiang Ning and a plan to trap Pang Jiao at night.
During the discussion, Chai Wei's golden words frequently appeared, which attracted frequent approval and thumbs-up from people on both sides.
This feeling of being recognized made Chai Wei feel for a moment that he was like a strategist from the Warring States Period who joined forces to make everything go up in smoke.
He was deeply fascinated by the invincibility of controlling everything, as if he was using everything as a chess piece to play the game of the century.
After all the discussions were completed, Chai Wei returned to his seat refreshed, and even the use of the crutch became much more brisk and smooth, as if it were a real leg of his.
Song Sheng noticed this scene inadvertently and was slightly shocked.
He once had a broken leg and used crutches himself, so he knew that this thing was difficult to use. However, Chai Wei only used it for a day and was able to use it like an arm. It was really awesome.
"He is simply a genius. If he participates in the competition..." Song Sheng couldn't imagine how much glory he could get!
Chai Wei sat down happily. He took out the beads from the hole in the table and started to turn them around.
Bai Yuxia, who was at the same table, was not reading as before, but was thinking about a difficult problem.
The day before yesterday, Jiang Ning brought another piece of fruit to school. It was a box of cherries, which tasted extremely good.
Bai Yuxia's mother had cruelly bought 120 yuan per pound of cherries before, but compared with the cherries brought by Jiang Ning, both the sweetness and texture were inferior by more than one level.
Of course, there is no need to say much about the price.
He had taken advantage of others, especially Jiang Ning. If he didn't return it to him, Bai Yuxia would feel uncomfortable all over.
She originally planned to take Jiang Ning to have a better late-night snack. Unfortunately, the restaurant she chose was a set meal for two people. If she took Xue Yuantong with her, there would definitely not be enough food...
What if... you don’t take Xue Yuantong with you?
Then the question comes: 'How can we invite Jiang Ning to dinner alone after evening self-study without Xue Yuantong?'
Bai Yuxia tried to solve the problem, thinking about it, but she still couldn't come up with the answer. There was no way to separate the two.
Bai Yuxia suddenly discovered that the relationship between them was so close.
Bai Yuxia gave up this plan for the time being. She decided to change a store and bring Xue Yuantong and the twins with her at the same time.
…
The bell for the last class of evening self-study is about to ring.
Jiang Ning and Geng Lu walked in the empty piano room, which was built by the No. 4 Middle School funded by Changqingye.
After the initial bustle, the noisy piano room became deserted. Playing the piano requires learning costs. It is difficult to start from scratch, let alone high school students who are busy with their studies.
The two of them walked from the back of the piano room to the front door, and the atmosphere was particularly peaceful.
After class, Geng Lu walked around the playground with him. Halfway through, she suddenly decided to go to the piano room to have a look, but there was no one there.
Geng Lu, who was usually bold, became timid when he was in the same space as Jiang Ning.
The two of them walked along the road. The piano room was converted from an ordinary classroom. The outer wall was made of large glass sliding windows. This is a special sound-insulating glass that can effectively reduce the sound of the piano to avoid being transmitted to the outside and affecting other students.
Through the glass, you can see the ink-like night outside the window, which is deep and charming.
Under this dark rendering, the glass is like a mirror, clearly reflecting Jiang Ning and Geng Lu.
Geng Lu looked at the shadow in the glass. She stopped and glanced across the glass, falling into Jiang Ning's deep eyes.
Jiang Ning also stopped and, like her, looked into each other's eyes in the mirror.
Geng Lu broke the silence. She raised her hand and gestured gently: "You are so tall now."
Jiang Ning looked at himself in the mirror. He was now 183cm tall, a full 10cm taller than he was in his previous life, making him much slender.
"It's okay." Jiang Ning said.
