CHAPTER 1032: CHAPTER 591: DEBATES IN THE CORRIDOR (PART 2)
The addictive nature of smartphones is not only aimed at teenagers but is equally appealing to the middle-aged and elderly.
Without a phone, Chen Haiyang harbors a grudge against Gao Heshuai!
But as a senior in the teaching profession, he couldn’t reprimand Gao Heshuai, he could only swallow his pride.
As people age, their spending habits change; unlike the young, if a phone breaks and can be repaired, they won’t buy a new one, instead, they make do with a keypad phone.
During the evening self-study session, Chen Haiyang held a newspaper, but no matter how he looked at it, it wasn’t right. Previously it was acceptable, but now compared to the ’Today’s Headlines’ app, the paper newspaper is nothing, far too boring.
He really couldn’t bear it anymore, so he put down the newspaper and glanced around at the students in the class.
Some were studying seriously, some were sleeping, some were humming, and some were daydreaming - all kinds of students.
Chen Siyu had a puzzled look on her face and occasionally glanced down into her desk hole.
Chen Haiyang wasn’t in a good mood, and seeing those students who were happy, even he wasn’t happy.
With a stiff face, he suddenly said, "Many students have piled up books so high in front of their desks. What are they trying to do? Do they think I can’t see?"
Once he spoke, the students’ actions became much more restrained; Cui Yu quietly put away his phone playing a video, Duan Shigang withdrew his protruding head, and Zhang Chi put away the hundred-yuan notes without counting them.
Seeing this, Chen Haiyang was quite satisfied. Ever since his hair grew back, he lost his previous sternness, and at this moment, he further persuaded:
"Do you know, from where I’m sitting, I can see everything you do clearly."
"What you can see, I can see. What you can’t see, I can also see."
Chen Haiyang spoke these words to educate the students and prove his point.
At this moment, Chen Siyu raised her head, believing his words as if she had grasped hope:
"Really?"
Chen Haiyang replied, "Haha, don’t believe me? Come up and take a look from the podium?"
"Then Mr. Chen, could you help me find my math test paper? I can’t find it, and it’s being discussed in the next class."
If she couldn’t find the test paper and was discovered by Gao Heshuai, she would definitely be punished to stand – how terrifying!
She looked into the English teacher’s eyes, filled with anticipation.
Upon hearing her words, Chen Haiyang’s teacher-like demeanor instantly crumbled.
In the end, it was Jiang Ning’s Divine Sense that swiftly found the test paper, saving her from the fate of being punished.
...
During the big break in the second class.
Guo Kunnan took off his jacket and went jogging on the field with his good friends Dan Kaiquan and Miao Zhe.
Unlike the other two who were self-motivated, Guo Kunnan always played a supporting role; he didn’t put in much effort in running, and after jogging two laps, he strolled around the field, looking for pretty girls to admire.
Sometimes, upon seeing a pretty girl, Guo Kunnan couldn’t help but feel an urge to go up and ask for her contact information, but his inner timid nature stopped him.
So, one after another, beautiful figures appeared and disappeared.
Occasionally, while walking, Guo Kunnan would drift into a vague dream, dreaming that one day while walking on the road, his steadfast, graceful, and handsome demeanor would be noticed by a pretty girl, leading to a sweet flirtatious journey.
But those things were ultimately just fantasies.
Guo Kunnan looked at a couple in the distance; in his judgment, they were definitely a young couple. Watching them, he couldn’t help but ask himself:
’Years from now, will I still be like this, holding a girl, strolling under the night sky?’
The big break was almost over.
Dan Kaiquan and Miao Zhe ran 8 laps around the field, becoming physically stronger, while Guo Kunnan ended up with a restless mind.
Despite being in the prime of his life, Guo Kunnan was inexplicably melancholic.
With such feelings, he walked back to the classroom, and then, an unusual scene appeared.
Meng Zi Yun stood by his seat, rubbing his clothes as if she wanted to completely merge his jacket into her body.
Seeing this, Guo Kunnan inexplicably got chills all over.
His legs couldn’t help but tremble; wasn’t she the girl Cao Kun liked? Why was she suddenly touching my jacket?
’Could it be... she...’ An unbidden bold and colorful thought flashed through Guo Kunnan’s mind.
If she liked me, should I give up or accept it and then compete with Cao Kun?
Guo Kunnan leaned towards retreating, but a man’s dignity made him stand his ground.
I have countless brothers; what is there to fear?
Thinking this, Guo Kunnan’s conviction grew even stronger, and from the old him emerged a new him.
At this moment, Meng Zi Yun finally moved her hand away from his jacket.
She reached toward Tang Jing’s neck, who screamed and almost jumped.
Meng Zi Yun laughed happily, her voice raising two pitches: "I told you, Guo Kunnan’s jacket definitely builds up static, and you didn’t believe me!"
Seeing this, Tang Jing immediately pretended to reach for Guo Kunnan’s jacket, and the two youthful girls started a playful scuffle, laughter ringing out, even the air seemed lively.
Guo Kunnan watched for a while and laughed along.
...
In the blink of an eye, two days passed.
Wednesday morning’s self-study session, Chai Wei was the last to enter the classroom.
He had just returned from Huijin District after banging the drums, extremely fatigued, but his face still couldn’t hide his joy.
After working for over two hours, earning one hundred yuan finally allowed him to save up three thousand yuan.
Even someone who hadn’t been smiling much recently, when faced with Bai Yuxia, he actually showed a smile.
But Bai Yuxia didn’t care; from a young age, she had seen too many strange boys who might have sworn yesterday never to talk to you again, but today are shamelessly getting close again.
Bai Yuxia always watched everything with keen interest from the perspective of a bystander.
Chai Wei was overjoyed today, even to the extent that he proactively joined Pang Jiao and the others for breakfast.
This move made his friend Qiang Li hard to understand; was Chai Wei planning to give up?
That wouldn’t do; thinking of how Chai Wei was dominated by Pang Jiao, Qiang Li shuddered.
He found an opportunity to call Chai Wei out of the classroom, advising him: "Ah Wei, you can’t give up, why not struggle a bit more?"
"You can learn fitness from me, strengthen your body, change your fate!"
With that, Qiang Li posed a fitness stance, showing off his biceps.
Chai Wei only smiled and retorted, "If you were up against Pang Jiao, what chance would you have?"
Qiang Li surveyed the hallway, finding no one paying attention, he thought and said, "Currently, it’s 30-70 with her."
Chai Wei: "Who’s 70?"
Qiang Li felt a bit stifled; he had witnessed Pang Jiao’s fierce battle with Liu Chuandao, her defensive power and attack power were quite formidable.
He admitted frankly, "She’s 70, but, just give me time..."
Chai Wei interrupted him, "What if you add Li Shengnan and Zhang Yifei?"
Qiang Li went silent.
The atmosphere was silent for half a minute before Qiang Li finally said, "With Jiang Ning, maybe?"
Even though Jiang Ning was one of the culprits causing nightmares for his good friend, the opponent’s fitness was undeniably formidable; benching 140kg was absolutely master-level. Qiang Li had observed in Class 8 for a while and noticed the classmates there seemed to have a profound respect for Jiang Ning.
The usually arrogant Cui Yu, Pang Jiao, and the others steered clear of Jiang Ning.
Hearing Qiang Li’s words, Chai Wei chuckled, "If it’s Jiang Ning, maybe, but even so, what advanced people like to use is their brains."
He pointed to his head with an increasingly confident smile, "Only by using this can you deliver a fatal blow."
Qiang Li was puzzled, "Do you have any plan?"
As the two were talking, Dan Xiao happened to be passing by.
Chai Wei grinned and said, "Dan Xiao, can I count on you for this afternoon?"
He planned to visit the gold shop this afternoon to buy a 3000 yuan gold accessory.
Dan Xiao quickly rubbed his hands together with enthusiasm, "No problem, not a problem."
