Chapter 222 - 190: Principled, but Not Many
Chapter 222: Chapter 190: Principled, but Not ManySuch an innocuous threat, what’s the point of telling Zhang Ningzhi?
Everyone’s free to believe what they want.
Who saw it anyway?
Jiang Nian whistled, feeling quite happy.
Lost three bucks today, oh no... plus half a bottle of water that costs one yuan. Let’s call it three-point-seven, buying a good mood for the evening. Totally worth it!
Not getting into fights or damaging others’ property, just highly insulting but with little harm.
Will the boss, after packing up and going home, be able to sleep tonight?
Jiang Nian didn’t know the answer, but he knew he’d sleep soundly. Taking an early shower on a rainy day, then diving into his cozy bed, dry and comfortable.
The phone of Emperor Zeng You in the front row was plugged into a Romoss power bank, lying on the desk.
Probably bored, chatting with his roommate Wu Jungu.
"If only this rain keeps going until tomorrow morning, just like this drizzling rain. After a shower, drink some water, then straight to bed, it’s pure bliss."
Wu Jungu glanced at him, curiously asking.
"Why drink water? Won’t you wake up in the middle of the night needing the bathroom?"
Zeng You shook his head, teasing.
"You just don’t get it, sleeping in this weather is the first pleasure. When you wake up needing the bathroom and see it’s 3:30 AM, that’s the second pleasure."
"Brilliant, you basically have two sleeps in one night." Jiang Nian clapped his hands, admiringly leaning in, "Whoa, you really know how to enjoy life."
"Of course, the essence is the midnight bathroom trip." Zeng You boasted, "I often read novels until 2:30, then pass out, wake up once, then... "
"Guess what time I wake up? 3:30! So even though I’m staying up late, after deep sleep once, I can start over again."
"Damn, that’s awesome, no wonder you’re so energetic every day." Jiang Nian played the perfect sidekick.
"You’re too kind, you should try it." Zeng You became slightly embarrassed.
Wu Jungu watched them talking happily, hesitating to speak.
This damn... isn’t sleep time still limited? Even if you go to the bathroom seven times in a night, making your prostate swell, it’s still just seven or eight hours.
Suddenly, Jiang Nian asked.
"Zeng You, what if you wake up in the morning, finish in the bathroom, and only have three minutes left before the bell rings?"
Upon hearing this, the smile on Zeng You’s face vanished.
"Damn, then I’d really want to die."
"But let’s not forget, our dorm is on the fifth floor." Zeng You said, "Other than being hot in summer and cold in winter, it’s not too bad."
"I have a friend in the B-level humanities class; their dorm is on a dark, windowless first floor. At noon there’s no light, the mop in their dorm grows mushrooms."
Jiang Nian didn’t react much, but this description gave Wu Jungu goosebumps.
"Can people even live there?"
"Of course, just the corners don’t get light." Seizing the time for evening study, Zeng You animatedly explained, "**** (protective encryption)."
"Ugh!" Wu Jungu gagged instinctively, "Please, don’t say it, ugh!"
"Holy crap, you’re truly disgusting." Jiang Nian couldn’t handle it either, admitting defeat, "If it were me, I’d switch to being a day student, too terrifying."
"Come on, boarding is cheap, renting is expensive." Zeng You tossed his hair, "You guys are so weak, clearly don’t have much boarding experience."
"When I boarded at junior high in the countryside, the conditions were really bad. Washing with cold water in December, and behind the bathroom was a burial mound."
"Where’s your hometown?" Jiang Nian asked curiously.
"Over by Tianshi Town."
"Oh, it is a bit undeveloped over there." Jiang Nian replied, "The most developed town near Zhen Nan should be Yunmu Town, where Chen Yunyun and the others are."
"Indeed, they have a large population, and many milk tea and snack shops." Zeng You nodded, "We just have quarries over there."
The more they talked, the more excited they became, not stopping until the evening study ended.
Zeng You felt somewhat unsatisfied, having many tales from his junior high in the countryside to tell. The people were a mixed bag, but after entering high school, he found everyone around him was normal.
One day, on a whim, he
"And a colon, you’re not writing the colon after ’solution’?" Jiang Nian displayed a mentor-like demeanor, "A colon, you know, two dots, one above the other."
"And then?" Yao Beibei asked through gritted teeth.
"Copy down the given conditions, ’Given, therefore can deduce’." Jiang Nian patiently instructed, "Write it, Huang Beibei, why are you looking at me again."
Yao Beibei kept her cool, smiling gently.
"Alright, and then? I mean the solution method, don’t tell me you don’t know?"
Jiang Nian looked confused, then seriously said.
"That’s my solution method, I’ve always done it this way. At least you’d get one point, and maybe if you write another formula, you might get two points."
