After hearing what Jin Yuanhang said, Xue Chuchu said:
“They are my good friends.”
She didn't give a detailed introduction. Jin Yuanhang was just a classmate. To be narcissistic, Xue Chuchu felt that he had special fantasies about her.
That's right, Xue Chuchu knew that she was good-looking, and she could tell what the other person was thinking when they approached her.
Xue Chuchu had an average impression of Jin Yuanhang. If her deskmate Mu Ying hadn't made an appointment with her in advance, she wouldn't have come out at all.
Compared with her classmates, she prefers playing with Tongtong.
Tongtong is not only a fun person, but also an amazing cook.
After several experiences of eating for free, Xue Chuchu knew that eating for free was not worth promoting, but she really looked forward to Tongtong looking for her. Every time Tongtong looked for her, it must mean that there was something delicious.
Jin Yuanhang smiled and asked, "Your friends look about the same age as us. Are they students? Why haven't I seen them at No. 2 Middle School?"
"He is in the same class as us and studies at No. 4 Middle School." Xue Chuchu replied.
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere on the spot became a little strange. Jin Yuanhang, Tao Zhi, and Mu Ying were all students of Yuzhou No. 2 Middle School.
It was not obvious in junior high school, but in high school, each school was divided into levels. There was no doubt that No. 2 Middle School was far superior to other high schools in the city.
Last year, the admission rate to first-tier universities of Yuzhou No. 2 Middle School was as high as 80%, and the undergraduate rate was over 95%.
No. 2 High School is the high school that countless parents hope their children will attend.
Yuzhou No. 2 Middle School is divided into four levels just in terms of classes.
Tsinghua and Peking University classes, experimental classes, fast classes, and parallel classes.
Jin Yuanhang and his classmates are in one of the two classes admitted to Tsinghua and Peking University. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as you enter the Tsinghua and Peking University class of No. 2 Middle School, even the worst student in the class can easily get into a 211 university.
It is no exaggeration to call the students in the Tsinghua and Peking University classes of No. 2 Middle School the treasures of Yuzhou’s education community.
For students, the most important thing is grades. In high school, grades are almost the only thing that matters.
Originally, Jin Yuanhang thought Jiang Ning was a strong rival because of his handsome appearance, but now it seems...haha.
No. 4 Middle School
What is that.
As a student of Tsinghua University and Peking University Class in No. 2 Middle School, he couldn't help but feel a sense of superiority, so his smile was accompanied by a hint of superiority.
"No. 4 Middle School is pretty good, and has a bright future," Jin Yuanhang praised.
A student nearby answered, "No. 4 Middle School is OK. Their experimental class is probably a little better than our fast-track class."
Jin Yuanhang did not comment: "It is an experimental class after all."
Tao Zhi, who wears black-framed glasses, is a more introverted boy and he does not have a sense of superiority.
He has great ambitions. Although he enjoys the educational resources of Peking University and Tsinghua University, in his opinion, the education level of Yuzhou City is still in the middle and lower level in the entire Anhui Province.
It is often ridiculed by other neighboring cities.
He knew that this situation would have to change in the future.
Several people talked for a while.
Xue Yuantong said innocently: "You are from Tsinghua and Peking University class, so impressive, I also want to be admitted to Tsinghua and Peking University class in junior high school."
After hearing this, Jin Yuanhang smiled. Seeing the little girl's envy, he became more proud.
He said with a smile: "Then you must work hard for the high school entrance exam. The threshold for No. 2 High School is not low."
Jin Yuanhang did not mention the Tsinghua and Peking University classes, he only mentioned No. 2 Middle School.
In his opinion, for an average person to be admitted to No. 2 Middle School is already something worth bragging about.
"High school entrance examination? I've finished the exam and I'm a high school student now." Xue Yuantong explained.
I'm looked down upon again. I'm so angry!
"Uh, you are a high school student?" Jin Yuanhang was surprised. Just now Xue Chuchu said that they were students of the same grade. He only thought of the boy and ignored the little girl.
Who would have thought that the other party was actually a high school student!
He looked at Xue Yuantong. She was so short, even shorter than the shortest girl in their class.
It's not just because of her height, but mainly because of this little girl. Her face looks small, her expression is even smaller, and she looks like a primary school student in every way.
Xue Yuantong felt offended: "Don't doubt it, I'm a high school student."
"Um, okay." Jin Yuanhang laughed dryly twice, and then he said:
"It seems that you don't have the opportunity to study at No. 2 Middle School. To be honest, only by coming to No. 2 Middle School can your potential be fully realized."
Jin Yuanhang said: "Of course, it's not completely impossible. If you have great potential, you can also transfer to our No. 2 Middle School."
Tao Zhi felt that Jin Yuanhang was a little too narrow-minded. They were in the Tsinghua and Peking University class, and were being compared with top students from all over the country. They shouldn't limit their vision to No. 2 Middle School.
However, Tao Zhi didn't say anything, he was very introverted.
Xue Chuchu is not stupid. She heard something from Jin Yuanhang's words.
Perhaps other students agreed with Jin Yuanhang's words.
But Xue Chuchu wouldn't, Tongtong was her good friend, and besides, her grades...
Xue Chuchu said: "Tongtong should not need to transfer schools, she is doing well now."
"I forgot to tell you, her name is Xue Yuantong and his name is Jiang Ning."
Xue Chuchu introduced them one by one.
Tao Zhi on the side was suddenly stunned. He wondered in his heart, why does the name Xue Yuantong sound so familiar
Xue Yuantong from No. 4 Middle School
Final exam, Xue Yuantong from No. 4 Middle School
Tao Zhi suddenly recalled the fear he felt when he was dominated by this name during the city-wide exam at the end of last year.
His expression changed, and he quickly stared at the little girl and blurted out:
"Your name is Xue Yuantong!?"
Jin Yuanhang was puzzled. Why did Tao Zhi react so strongly? Wasn't it just a name, Xue Yuantong
Um, Xue Yuantong...
Jin Yuanhang was dumbfounded.
Tao Zhi didn't wait for her to answer and asked, "You ranked first in the city last time?"
Xue Yuantong pulled Jiang Ning's clothes and said calmly, "It's me, what's wrong?"
"How come you got such a high score!"
During the winter break of the first year of high school, Tao Zhi's class at Tsinghua University and Peking University had a make-up class. One of the teachers specially copied Xue Yuantong's test paper and analyzed it for everyone to see.
In the past, in the city-wide unified examination, the first place in the city was basically taken by No. 2 Middle School and Tu County No. 1 Middle School. But this time, it went to No. 4 Middle School, and it was not just the first place.
Generally speaking, the better the students are, the harder it is to widen the gap between them, but Xue Yuantong has a huge gap with them.
Jin Yuanhang tried to ask: "Are you Xue Yuantong who got the first place in the city?"
Xue Yuantong said as a matter of course: "Yes, I am Xue Yuantong."
"Uh..." This is so embarrassing!
Thinking back to his actions in front of Xue Yuantong just now, Jin Yuanhang felt embarrassed. He was the one who was giving instructions to the other party.
If Xue Chuchu hadn't been there, he would even want to turn around and go home. What the hell was this!
…
After the conversation just now, Jiang Ning and Xue Yuantong had a rough understanding of Xue Chuchu's classmates.
Jin Yuanhang saw that there was no solution. He had just lost some face, especially in front of Xue Chuchu, so he decided to save his face.
He did not suggest that everyone play their own games, but suggested:
"Since we're all together, why don't we play together? There's a good arcade in Phase 1 with lots of fun stuff. Would you like to take a look?"
Tao Zhi said: "I have no objection."
Jin Yuanhang thought to himself, it doesn’t matter whether you have any objections or not, what matters is whether Xue Chuchu and Mu Ying have any.
He looked at the two girls expectantly.
Xue Chuchu hesitated for a moment. She only had 70 yuan on her and she had to eat lunch, so she didn't know if the money was enough.
Mu Ying agreed: "Let's go and take a look."
Several other classmates agreed, and Xue Chuchu stopped hesitating. She secretly decided that she would try to watch others play and not play herself, so as to save money.
The group went up to the third floor and walked along the wide circular corridor.
Xue Yuantong was the last one to fall behind. She said to Jiang Ning, "Let's play for a while and then go to the fourth floor to eat. I heard from Chen Siyu that the buffet on the fourth floor is delicious. Dinner is 59 yuan per person, and lunch is 49."
She patted her pockets and said, "It's my treat."
We soon arrived at the video game arcade. The place was bustling with people, including adults with children, teenagers walking together, and young couples.
There are many kinds of equipment in the store, including ordinary arcade machines, arcade machines with steering wheels, and simulated shooting machines. They are placed in the store one by one, attracting customers to stay.
Jin Yuanhang pointed at the claw machines in front of him and said:
"Would you like to play?"
Xue Yuantong ran over, stood in front of the claw machine, and looked at the various dolls inside.
It is no exaggeration to say that the dolls in the claw machines are more attractive to girls than the dolls in ordinary stores. It is not because of their appearance and quality, but mainly because of the way of getting them, which involves an element of luck, so they are more rare.
Jin Yuanhang took out a fifty-dollar bill and put it into the coin machine. Soon, a bunch of game coins came out.
"Everyone take a few." Jin Yuanhang shouted. He was the first to go to Xue Chuchu and grabbed a handful for her:
"Chu Chu, you can play as you like." He said generously.
"And Mu Ying, you take it." He also grabbed a handful.
Mu Ying took it. The game coins were not expensive, and Mu Ying didn’t feel like she was indebted to her.
Previously, her sister-in-law was admitted to the hospital due to scalds from the water heater. After a while, her sister-in-law became much calmer and begged her brother not to divorce her. She was no longer as arrogant as before.
Thanks to this, Mu Ying's quality of life has been good recently, and she has enough money for daily use.
Xue Chuchu was unwilling to accept other people's favors. One game coin cost one or two yuan.
"I don't like catching dolls." She declined.
On the other side, Jiang Ning bought twenty game coins.
Xue Yuantong ran over and said, "I'm very accurate in catching dolls. I always catch one."
She patted her chest, extremely confident.
Jiang Ning was surprised: "Is it true?"
The dolls in the claw machine are really hard to catch. Many people buy dozens of coins but may get nothing.
"I'm really not lying to you. If you don't believe me, I'll try it for you." Xue Yuantong took two coins.
She hesitated in front of the claw machine for a few seconds and chose one.
Xue Yuantong stared at the white cartoon cat in the glass, his eyes shining. This rag doll was as pretty as Jiang Ning, he had to get it!
Insert the coin, the machine starts, Xue Yuantong operates the joystick, adjusts the direction of the hook, presses the button, and the hook lowers.
The cartoon cat was caught at once. The cat rose up with the grappling hook and was moving towards the exit. The grappling hook was lifted at the right time, and the cat fell down.
Xue Yuantong's heart sank.
Jiang Ning: "That's what you said, it's too far off."
Xue Yuantong had a clear conscience: "Just tell me whether it's accurate or not?"
"It's quite accurate." Jiang Ning said. He couldn't doubt it.
Xue Yuantong continued to put in coins and tried three times in a row. He caught the doll every time, but every time the hook moved, the doll fell off.
How outrageous!
Xue Yuantong was furious: "You are so bold, you actually treat me like this!"
'Do you think I'll give in?'
She pulled Jiang Ning's hand out of his pocket and slapped the game coin into his palm.
He nodded, indicating the arrest of the cartoon white cat doll.
"Okay." Jiang Ning decided to take action.
Jin Yuanhang was separated from this side by two machines. At this moment, he realized that this was a good opportunity, so he hurried over.
"Catching dolls requires skill," he said.
"Ordinary people can't catch it even after many attempts. You can't be reckless at this time. You must use skills."
While he was speaking, Xue Chuchu came over. Jin Yuanhang was in a good mood, with a beautiful woman by his side, and he raised his voice by two notches:
"Let me tell you about the technique of catching dolls. There is a very advanced technique, which I usually call 'hooking'!"
"It's about making the hook swing, using the inertia of the hook to catch the doll and then throwing it directly to the exit!"
"Not much more to say, I'll show you."
He inserted a coin and the hook moved, landing just above the doll.
Jin Yuanhang held the operating lever and shook it left and right, from slow to fast, and the hook in the claw machine swung accordingly.
He stared at the hook and said, "Watch it."
At the right moment, he pressed the button and the hook dropped quickly.
Then, it went astray.
Jin Yuanhang felt ashamed and felt that it was a lack of face!
He faced several people and explained: "This method requires proficiency. I am just showing it to you."
Xue Yuantong said: "This is a powerful move."
“I just can’t catch it.”
Jin Yuanhang: “…”
Seeing Xue Chuchu was still there, he regrouped:
"It's okay, I have another trick."
"This trick is more suitable for beginners. When the grappling hook grabs the doll, you press the button again to tighten the claws again, which can increase the probability of grabbing the doll."
In order to save face, Jin Yuanhang threw another coin.
One failure is nothing. The audience is still there. As long as I perform better this time, I will definitely win their favor again.
“Watch this!”
Jin Yuanhang manipulated the hook and moved it above the doll. After a brief aiming, he pressed the button and the claw fell down and grabbed the doll.
"Now!"
He pressed the button again.
This time the luck was even worse, the doll didn't rise at all, only the empty hook rose.
There was a sudden sighing sound all around.
Jin Yuanhang couldn't hold back his pride anymore, so he said cheekily, "It's okay, I still have a trick up my sleeve."
"This trick is a bug in the claw machine. Don't press the button. Wait for the countdown to end and for the hook to fall by itself. The success rate of catching the prey will be higher."
He threw in another coin, moved the grappling hook carefully, and waited quietly for the countdown to end.
Jiang Ning admired Jin Yuanhang's actions. At this moment, he put a coin in and the light of the claw machine came on.
"Jiang Ning, I want that white cartoon cat." Xue Yuantong said.
As for whether Jiang Ning would fail, Xue Yuantong had never considered it.
Deep down in her heart, Jiang Ning is the most powerful person in the world, except for herself, and there is nothing in the world that he can't do.
This was the answer she got during the time she spent with Jiang Ning.
Jin Yuanhang saw with his own eyes that Xue Chuchu's eyes were on Jiang Ning, Mu Ying also looked at Jiang Ning, and even his younger brother Tao Zhi looked at Jiang Ning.
"What do you mean, you gave up on me?"
Jin Yuanhang is very panicked now. What should he do if the audience runs away
He looked at the countdown and then at the claw in the claw machine.
Jiang Ning pushed the joystick and locked onto the cartoon cat that had caused Xue Yuantong to suffer repeated defeats before.
He pressed the button, and at the same time, a stream of spiritual power deftly drilled into the machine along the gap.
The grappling hook closed, and under the influence of spiritual power, the cartoon cat stuck tightly to the hook. It rose into the air with the hook, passed a group of rag dolls, and fell into the exit of the claw machine.
"Yeah! You really didn't let me down!" Xue Yuantong pulled Jiang Ning and shook him.
Jiang Ning looked calm, as if he had done something insignificant:
"Stop shaking. Don't you want the doll anymore?"
Xue Yuantong held the doll in his arms, his eyebrows and eyes smiling, his lips curved like a crescent moon:
"I'll reward you with something delicious when I get home tonight."
Xue Chuchu looked at Tongtong's doll and pursed her lips slightly. She... wanted it a little.
Mu Ying stared at the cartoon cat. The quality of the doll was not very high. She had better ones at home, but this was different. This was from a claw machine.
Jin Yuanhang looked at Jiang Ning's harvest. At this moment, the countdown ended and the grappling hook fell down.
Caught a lonely.
Jin Yuanhang stopped imparting his experience, and the audience all ran to Jiang Ning's side.
'My heart is so tired, I don't love this world anymore.'
