Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend

Chapter 14: Chapter 14 Teacher, you don't want this to happen either, do you?

""Did you buy this breakfast?" Zhou Qingyue was taken aback.

"Yes." The class leader nodded, visibly flustered, "I don't know if you'd like it.

If it doesn't suit your taste, I'll get something else next time."

Zhou Qingyue was dumbfounded on the spot.

Then, she felt heat rushing to her face.

Once again, she had done something foolish!

But then, she realized a far more serious issue.

The breakfast wasn't bought by Jiang Xu!

Why didn't he buy her breakfast?!

Zhou Qingyue felt a lump in her chest, an indescribable discomfort.

In her anger and embarrassment.

She grabbed the breakfast, and threw it in the garbage bin: "I don't like it, don't bother getting it for me in the future."

After saying this, she stormed back to her seat, silently fuming.

Jiang Xu watched the class leader, his face full of hurt, speechless, "Why did you bother with all this when you were doing just fine?"

The class leader scratched his head: "Actually, I kind of like Zhou as well.

Seeing how you didn't pursue her.

I thought I might have a chance to succeed."

Many students in the class were bound to like Zhou Qingyue given her looks.

It was just that Jiang Xu was so persistent in the past, driving away all the other contenders.

But now that everyone knew Jiang Xu had given up, many felt hopeful and were ready to make their move.

Jiang Xu facepalmed.

What was going on here?

The class leader returned to his place, visibly disappointed.

He couldn't fathom why he failed so quickly.

Was he not as persistent as Jiang Xu?

Then An Nuonuo came in.

Jiang Xu asked, "Why are you so late today, have you had breakfast?"

"I have," An Nuonuo responded quietly.

After putting down her backpack.

She unzipped it and pulled out a pink sachet.

She glanced around.

Ensuring no one was watching.

Then she quickly shoved it into Jiang Xu's hand: "I made this.

To thank you for helping me find a part-time job.

I put dried osmanthus and a talisman inside, it's not expensive, hope you don't mind."

She quickly pulled out a book and pretended to read it earnestly.

But she couldn't help glancing at Jiang Xu from the corner of her eye.

Feeling nervous yet anticipatory.

Fearful that Jiang Xu might not like it, yet hopeful he'd say he does.

Jiang Xu's eyes lit up.

The sachet was finely made.

It was even embroidered with the words 'An Ping every passing year'.

He held it up to his nose, sniffed it.

The faint, refreshing scent of the osmanthus was pleasing.

Jiang Xu noticed there were wounds on An Nuonuo's hand.

Upon closer inspection.

There were numerous tiny needle pricks on her fingers.

He felt a pang of guilt, "Did these wounds come from making the sachet?"

An Nuonuo pulled her hand away, murmuring, "There was no moon last night, it was quite dim.

So I accidentally pricked myself a few times, it's nothing."

An Nuonuo's family didn't have good financial conditions.

So, she didn't turn on the light.

Instead, she sat by the window, sewing the sachet for Jiang Xu.

"Silly girl, I love it, and will treasure it for my entire life," Jiang Xu said, warmth flowing through his heart.

Perhaps her late arrival today was due to staying up late crafting this sachet.

Considering she only got home after ten o'clock last night.

Hearing Jiang Xu say he liked it, the corners of An Nuonuo's mouth slightly upturned.

Suddenly, her mood was as blooming as spring flowers.

A sweet joy spread from the depths of her heart, traveling throughout her body.

It seemed like every cell was bursting with happiness.

This strange feeling made her feel incredibly attached to the moment.

"Jiang Xu, the class teacher is calling for you!" Li Honghong shouted toward Jiang Xu from the doorway.

A touch of schadenfreude gleamed in her eyes.

She had been slapped twice by Jiang Xu yesterday and was too embarrassed to tell her parents.

First thing in the morning, she ran to snitch to the class teacher.

The teacher had always detested evildoers, so Jiang Xu was definitely screwed!

Jiang Xu rose and walked to the teacher's office.

Li Honghong's face was teeming with innocence. "Teacher, you have to stand up for me."

The class teacher fixed his stare on Jiang Xu, "Jiang Xu, your classmate Li said you hit her yesterday. What's that all about?"

Jiang Xu shrugged nonchalantly, "Teacher, do you believe I shot down a j10 with a slingshot yesterday?"

The class teacher retorted angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Jiang Xu expressed his innocence, "You also think it's impossible, right?

I'm the top student of the grade, and the most handsome guy across the school.

Why would I have any conflict with a bush-leaguer whose looks, scores, and figure are all just average?

This does not fit my character setup."

Li Honghong instantly turned beet red.

She stomped her foot emphatically, "Teacher, look at him, making personal attacks against me!"

Every word that came out of Jiang Xu's mouth was a direct jab at her.

The class teacher looked at Jiang Xu skeptically, "You really didn't hit her?"

"Teacher, if I really did hit her, then let her produce the evidence.

Otherwise, this dispute is not going to end.

I may fall into a slump, thereby unable to focus on my studies.

Eventually, my grades would plummet, and I might fail to get into a good university.

Ultimately, it would negatively affect your promotion and salary raise, hindering your chances of marrying a beautiful rich girl and leading a successful life.

Teacher, you don't want that to happen, do you?"

And believe it or not, his words were strikingly effective.

After all, the teacher had pinned all his hopes on Jiang Xu now.

So he sternly said to Li Honghong, "Since you claim Jiang Xu hit you, then present the proof."

"I..." Li Honghong was completely dumbstruck.

Where on earth was she supposed to find evidence?

In this time, many places still didn't have surveillance facilities.

After a whole day had passed, the fingerprints on her face were long gone.

As long as Jiang Xu denied it, the case would be closed without a verdict.

"Ah, I see." Jiang Xu suddenly slapped his thigh, "Classmate Li Honghong,

Are you holding a grudge because I reported you to the teacher for reading novels in class with your deskmate last week,

And now you're trying to slander me?"

The class teacher's face immediately darkened.

"I didn't! I didn't do it!" Li Honghong shouted in panic.

"Alright, let's end it here." The class teacher put his foot down.

As neither side could present any proof, there was no point in continuing the dispute.

However, he was more inclined to believe in Jiang Xu's side of the story.

Therefore, he told Li Honghong, "In the exams two days later, if your average score in each subject does not reach 80,

You'll have to stay after school for half an hour of extra studies."

"Ah, no, please teacher." Li Honghong looked utterly hopeless.

Jiang Xu chuckled, "Alright teacher, I'll take my leave."

Li Honghong trudged out, dejected.

In her struggle against Jiang Xu, she had lost grandly and even got slapped twice for nothing.

It felt like a massive loss.

"No, I can't let this be the end!"

Li Honghong lifted her head, a fire burning in her eyes.

She returned to the classroom and sat down.

An Nuonuo's lips moved slightly.

After a moment's hesitation, she finally asked Jiang Xu whether he was in trouble with the class teacher because he hit Li Honghong yesterday.

Jiang Xu leaned in closer,

Inhaling the unique scent of a young girl's body. "Why, are you worried about me?"
