The dormitory aunt recognized the twins and, seeing that they were dressed lightly, kindly reminded them, "It's cold, wear more clothes, don't catch a cold; it's even colder at night!"

The twins thought to themselves that they were precisely coming back to get more clothes.

Bai Yuxia replied with a smile, "Thank you, Auntie, for the reminder. We'll go put on more clothes right away."

Saying this, she went upstairs with the twins.

Chen Siyu asked her, "Yuxia, we were going to get clothes in the first place, so why did you thank her for the reminder?"

Bai Yuxia: "If we pretend not to know, the auntie will feel like she's helped us and will definitely be very happy."

Her sister, Chen Siqing, imagined it and said, "It does seem like that."

After they finished putting on more clothes and came downstairs, the dormitory aunt saw them, and sure enough, the smile on her face became more pronounced.

Her sister, Chen Siqing, marveled, "Yuxia, you're amazing."

Chen Siyu: "I can't learn that, I can't learn that."

...

The wind was strong.

Zhang Chi leaned on the balcony, playing with his iPhone 6 Plus in one hand.

Next door in Class 8, Shen Xu was also leaning on the balcony, looking a bit melancholy.

Once a small-time vendor and mobile phone tycoon, it was all him, but now, he had become a fallen youth.

Zhang Chi glanced at the broken phone in Shen Xu's hand, then at his own iPhone, his smile grew broader, deeply realizing the joy of the wheel of fortune turning.

Shen Xu not only faced misfortune in business, but love was also not smooth. He fell for a senior from the third year and successfully won her over, for which he sold his iPhone.

Now, he seemed to lack the patience he once had in wooing, just wanting to throw money at it for a quick pursuit.

Unfortunately, he didn't have enough money.

Girls attracted by money are likely to leave when the money is gone.

The senior played around too much, destined to be a wild horse he can't tame right now.

Duan Shigang found Shen Xu: "What's up lately? If something's going on, tell your brother."

If Shen Xu were successful now, he probably wouldn't have said anything. He cared about face.

But now, he had nothing, and face was never something important to Shen Xu.

He told Duan Shigang the story about himself and the senior, from when they first met, got to know, fell in love, to now drifting apart.

"Gangzi, as a man, I can't take it anymore; her heart is too wild," Shen Xu concluded.

Duan Shigang: "It's okay, live and learn, who hasn't been screwed over at some point?"

He patted Shen Xu's shoulder, "Don't think too much."

Once a small business tycoon, the heaven's favored child Shen Xu, now looked resentful: "Some time ago, I got Haozi to investigate, and only found out that she goes to bars every weekend."

Duan Shigang: "Tell me more."

Shen Xu: "Haozi said that she sits in the bar, and as long as a slightly handsome guy offers her a drink, she almost never refuses."

Duan Shigang's ears perked up: "Which bar?"

Shen Xu turned his head: "?"

"Ah, no, I was just asking," Duan Shigang awkwardly smiled.

After cheering Shen Xu up, Duan Shigang entered the classroom and randomly picked a female classmate, he asked:

"I want an opinion, do you think I'm a bit handsome?"

Chen Siyu: "Sure."

Duan Shigang politely said: "Thanks, thanks."

His steps became a lot lighter.

...

Thursday noon.

The school bell rang, students poured out from each classroom like streams flowing, finally gathering into a massive torrent in the square, advancing toward the cafeteria.

Soon, the cafeteria was packed with a dense crowd of students.

At the dining table of Class 8, others used bowls, but Dong Qingfeng brought a pot.

He served five people's worth of rice at once, then shared it with Meng Ziyun, Zhuo Na, Shen Qing'e, Jiang Yanan, who sat at the same table…

Next to him, Cao Kun, full of indignation: 'How can you be so amazing?'

In the face of Dong Qingfeng's attentiveness, Cao Kun seemed utterly useless, and the distance between him and Meng Ziyun grew further apart.

Besides caring for the girls at his table, Dong Qingfeng also had the leisure to pay attention to other tables.

Then, shocked to find that Jiang Ning was unexpectedly absent today, his spot and another were empty.

"What's up with Jiang Ning today?" Dong Qingfeng wondered.

Two kilometers away, Jiang Ning rode an electric bike taking Tongtong home for lunch.

Jiang Yanan: "During the big break, I think I heard him chatting with Xue Yuantong, saying he was going to the neighbor's for lunch."

Shen Qing'e looked at Jiang Yanan in surprise, not understanding why her friend was so well-informed.

Meng Zi Yun glanced at her phone: "Liu Chuandao asked Jiang Ning in the group if he could join his table for lunch."

Dong Qingfeng was interested: "And then?"

"Then Geng Lu told him to buzz off."

"Serves him right," Dong Qingfeng snickered to himself.

He mentioned Jiang Ning in the boys' small group: "Your family must be eating well today, it's the first time I've seen you not eating in the cafeteria."

Jiang Ning was in the kitchen of Chuchu's house, using his mana to eliminate the irritating smoke smell, sitting on a small stool, watching Chuchu tending the fire, and Aunt Hua cooking.

"It's alright," Jiang Ning replied.

At the table near Dong Qingfeng, Chai Wei wasn't interacting with Pang Jiao and the others, looking down at his phone. Seeing Jiang Ning pop up, he asked: "Are you having lunch at Xue Yuantong's house?"

Guo Kunnan: "Definitely, right?"

Jiang Ning: "She went next door for lunch."

Dong Qingfeng had a sudden realization, connecting some possibilities, and that fleeting worry in his heart prompted him to ask:

"The girl who came to our school last time and ate at your table, isn't she from next door?"

That comment stirred the boys' small group.

That girl made a deep impression on them, most had never met such a beautiful girl in their life.

Xue Chuchu's beauty was different from Class 1's Ding Shuyan's, not an unattainable kind of elegance.

The distance between her and ordinary people wasn't too far.

Jiang Ning: "Yes."

Dong Qingfeng's heart skipped a beat, for some reason, his usual pride gave way to a feeling of sadness.

Without much hope, he asked: "Did you go home for lunch because she invited you?"

He asked with more detail than usual; typically, he wouldn't question like this, but Dong Qingfeng wasn't always entirely rational.

Guo Kunnan, envious: "Surely she did, right?"

Chai Wei inwardly cursed: "Damn, damn it!"

Jiang Ning said truthfully: "She didn't ask me, she only asked Tongtong."

This line appeared in the small group, causing a brief silence.

Then messages flooded in.

Chai Wei: "Hahaha, then did you have anything to eat at home?"

"You might as well stay at the cafeteria."

Duan Shigang: "You might as well stay at the cafeteria."

Liu Chuandao: "You might as well stay at the cafeteria."

They echoed this message, inexplicably excited.

So, the stunning girl had nothing to do with Jiang Ning!

Dong Qingfeng relaxed considerably, Jiang Yanan at the same table wondered: "Qingfeng, are you chatting with someone? You look quite happy."

Zhuo Na from Class 9, who often benefited from Dong Qingfeng, said: "We can wait until you finish chatting to eat."

"Hey, I'm almost done chatting." Dong Qingfeng was secretly pleased.

He quickly typed, offering comforting advice from a superior position: "Jiang Ning, if there's nothing to eat at home, it's not too late to come to the cafeteria, your home isn't far from school."

"But I'm curious, last time I saw you seemed to have a good relationship with her, why didn't she invite you?" He took the opportunity to probe the situation.

Dong Qingfeng almost anticipated Jiang Ning's reply, expecting something like 'the girl is Xue Yuantong's friend,' 'a friend's friend isn't a friend,' or 'I don't get along with her.'

More so, the girl not inviting Jiang Ning to eat might lead to an eventual drift between them.

By then, wouldn't Dong Qingfeng have just a little bit of a chance?

Everyone has a love for beauty.

Not only Dong Qingfeng, but many boys in the small group also looked forward to Jiang Ning's answer.

After all, since knowing Jiang Ning, he always seemed quite capable.

Who's not willing to witness the fall of a god? Most boys were expecting, anticipating Jiang Ning to lose his composure.

Chai Wei's hand holding chopsticks trembled slightly.

Liu Chuandao stared at his phone, 'Jiang Ning, he's just like that!'

The next second, Jiang Ning posted in the group: "She didn't invite me, her mom did."
