Chapter 426: Chapter 426

Jiang Nian had come to a realization.

Yao Beibei, his lifelong rival!

This woman was not at all like Li Hua, who was brave but foolish; she was a rather sly and shrewd adversary with dual intelligence.

An internal sword is often sharper than an external one.

After all, five thousand years of history have proven this.

Internal strife experts.

Without a doubt, Yao Beibei somehow obtained his information and directly pinned him down, step by step, making him the team captain.

"Okay, then Jiang Nian will be the captain." Lao Liu was quite casual, not really holding high hopes for this game anyway.

But regardless, nice words still needed to be spoken.

"Ah, this football, the school is strongly supporting it. It’s a sport backed by national policy, participation is key for everyone."

"But then again, everyone is still a student, and the primary task is still studying."

Lao Liu changed the topic, beginning to summarize the results of the Six Cities joint exams that ended by the end of last month.

He first listed a few people who had made the most progress, then specifically praised Jiang Nian. He improved from 590 to 616, a significant progress.

The class immediately buzzed with varying reactions.

"Wait, isn’t this a homeroom session?"

"This byd Lao Liu is slacking off again, but it’s okay. I get sleepy as soon as Chinese class starts, let him talk."

"How is Jiang Nian scoring higher and higher, suddenly scoring over 600? Is he on drugs? Is he going to heaven?"

"That someone from the promoted class, also scored over 600. No, it’s consistently over 630, too freaky."

"Damn, how many 600s do we have in our class?"

Yang Qiming listened to the discussions around him, turned his head towards Zhou Yuting, and jokingly brought up a sore subject.

"Hey, weren’t you also promoted? Rounding up, aren’t you almost at 600 too?"

Zhou Yuting was immediately at a loss for words, not knowing what to say.

She thought, what an idiot! Your mom’s an idiot!

But then, she thought she indeed should redouble her efforts. Yu Tongjie from the promoted class already went to Class Zero.

Only she was still stuck in the 500s, maybe she could pretend to be a top student in the parallel class, but not here.

Seeing that the mock exam would be over in a few days, and they would be heading into the new year, there wasn’t much time left.

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but look at Jiang Nian’s seat in the front row.

She recalled the time he asked her to find someone at the hospital, heard from her uncle he took a little girl for a check-up, who could that be?

More importantly, where did he get so much money?

Zhou Yuting instantly felt Jiang Nian was surrounded by too many mysteries, honestly, he seemed like he was on drugs.

No way he was some hidden urban Dragon King, right?

She shook her head, dismissing the unrealistic thoughts, and began to reorganize her somewhat chaotic thoughts.

Hmm... diligence deserves reward!

In the noisy classroom.

Sun Zhicheng was rather unconvinced; he was also on Lao Liu’s notable list this time, thinking how could Jiang Nian play soccer?

But there was no breaking the impasse within the same class.

He had to try to show off more, relying on his skilled dribbling techniques. At the very least, he could play forward.

As for Jiang Nian, let’s see how it goes.

Chen Yunyun glanced at the copied grade sheet on her desk, glanced at the not-too-distant scores, and couldn’t help but purse her lips.

The sense of urgency instantly rose.

Jiang Nian’s rising grades were beginning to approach her stronghold. For various reasons, she had to distance herself from Jiang Nian.

Suddenly, Wang Yuhe from the seat in front turned around, looking serious.

"Yunyun, my score is much higher than his."

"Huh?" Chen Yunyun was confused.

"It’s no big deal, my score will always be higher than his." The foolish Wang Yuhe clenched her fist, speaking through gritted teeth in defiance.

Most people in the class were still discussing the other news Lao Liu brought.

Truly, apart from the mock exam, the closest provincial joint exam to the college entrance exam, the scores were highly referential afterwards.

More importantly, Zhenan Middle School had no authority to set the exam questions.

So, there were no issues like cheating. Even if you had the questions, taking books to copy wouldn’t necessarily earn you high scores.

Jiang Nian found Yao Beibei and forcibly dragged her out as she was about to lie down to sleep.

"What are you doing! What are you doing!" Yao Beibei thought he was coming for revenge and struggled desperately, "Strong hold!"

"What the hell are you yelling about." Jiang Nian was exasperated.

"Strong hold... body exercise." Yao Beibei stretched, turned to glance at Jiang Nian, "What do you want with me?"

"At school, now is not convenient."

She suspected Jiang Nian was flirting, but she wasn’t too shy, just a little guilty, after all, she had sold him out twice today.

Yes, she was very adept internally.

No other purpose, just thought her class’s soccer skills were too bad, especially those two fools, Li Hua, it was unbearable to watch.

She happened to hear someone say Jiang Nian had played as a high school freshman defender and even won some award.

Since it wasn’t something bad, she just exposed it. Even if Jiang Nian really didn’t want to, they could ask Lao Liu to revoke it.

"What exactly do you want, stop dawdling." Yao Beibei steeled herself, spoke firmly, but subconsciously took a step back.

"You..." Jiang Nian was speechless but hesitated for a moment, "Uh-uh, just wanted to apologize for saying ’get lost’ to you last class."

"Really sorry, I just found out you said something fair for me in gym class; Sister Beibei, I was wrong."

Yao Beibei, who had already taken two steps back, couldn’t help but come to her senses when she heard this.
