Divorce Revenge System: Knowing the Future in Advance

"Speaking of which, Xu Qianqian." Jiang Nian said, "We probably slept together too, but we were quite young then."

"Why would you even mention that?" Xu Qianqian replied irritably.

Upon hearing this, Song Xiyun asked curiously.

"Did you guys know each other since you were little?"

Xu Qianqian thought for a moment and said, "Almost, it seems like our families were neighbors from a very young age."

"That's really nice." Song Xiyun sounded a little envious.

"Nice? He's the most annoying."

"Ha." Song Xiyun didn't know what to say, and as she turned around, she caught Jiang Nian's gaze, quickly looking away.

Weird, why is he staring at me?

Along the way, the three of them chatted off and on. The topic they talked about the most was the New Year's Eve party coming up the day after tomorrow.

"A choir, what else can be performed?"

"Right, every class is about the same."

"Our group is doing a comedy skit." Song Xiyun covered her face, "It's already enough trouble memorizing vocab, now I have to memorize lines too."

"Can't you just read the lines directly?" Jiang Nian asked.

"No, our group leader won't allow it." Song Xiyun pursed her lips, "He says it's better this way, insists we memorize them."

"Ridiculous, your group leader just wants to impress the class teacher." Xu Qianqian said disdainfully, "If it were me, I'd just toss the script away."

"Xu is impressive." Jiang Nian laughed, casually praised, "If you don't toss it, why not just take my last name?"

Xu Qianqian was all talk and never did anything to offend anyone. Feeling a bit embarrassed, she glared at him.

"I'll smack you twice!"

"Haha, of course it has something to do with me." Jiang Nian suggested, "However, I do have a good idea."

"What?" Song Xiyun asked, puzzled.

Under a street lamp at the turn, the shadows of three people flickered together. Reflected on the wall, all overlapping.

Jiang Nian said, "Your group leader wants you to memorize the lines, just give a perfunctory response. When the New Year's Eve event comes, you can just say whatever."

Song Xiyun, hearing this, hesitated slightly.

"Can I really do that?"

"What if they blame her?" Xu Qianqian frowned, "Those people are the worst, making others do the work and then taking the credit themselves."

Credit-seeking fanatics, there's one in every class.

Jiang Nian had seen similar characters in Song Xiyun's college memory fragments.

In high school, they only got along well with teachers. Once in college, it was different.

They directly got promoted, from credit-seeking fanatics to pseudo-military.

"Oh....., Honorable Sir, let me give you a message."

Automatically match the student union vice president position, with a long-haired, long-legged girlfriend by their side, engaged in human trafficking activities.

Part-time recruiting, handling campus cards, they're involved everywhere.

Right now, this is the childhood version of pseudo-military.

"The New Year's Eve party will be over, who cares?" Jiang Nian said, "Just give it a try, no one in your group will memorize it."

"If you don't memorize it, the rest of your group won't either."

"Even if you memorize the lines, once you're really on stage it's different. You get nervous, stumble, maybe even forget the lines."

Listening to him, the two girls looked at each other.

Seems...there's some logic to it.

Jiang Nian was just a bit more experienced than them, the slick veterans in the workplace understood this tactic well.

Politely refuse in major matters, directly delay in minor ones. Afterward, counter major accusations, sincerely apologize and reflect on minor issues.

Strive for being neutral and orderly.

Don't delay the collective big event, don't indulge the troublemakers.

In the hallway, the three prepared to head home. Song Xiyun pulled out a problem set from her backpack and handed it to Jiang Nian.

"Here, return it after the exams."

"Oh, thanks." Jiang Nian reached out to take it, glancing at her, "You can get it from me if you need it halfway."

"Okay." Song Xiyun turned and went inside.

Jiang Nian stood there watching for a while, raising an eyebrow. Thinking, Xiao Song is quite nice, she can even accompany me to the internet café overnight.

Even in the future timeline, still..... quite a rarity.

The next day.

Jiang Nian opened his eyes, brushing his teeth while looking at the problem set. Now close to joint exams, seizing every moment to go all out academically.

Walking into the school gate, he didn't bump into Zhou Haifei.

Huh?

The promise was to stick it out until the provincial exams, but as expected, the perseverance of a top student isn't certain, directly giving up on studying.

Jiang Nian was about to leave when someone called out to him.

Turning his head, he saw Zhou Haifei coming out from the other side of the copse pavilion, carrying a box.

"For you."

Jiang Nian took it and looked; it was a can of mixed nuts.

"Why?"

"Owe you a meal, if I delay further it'll be New Year." Zhou Haifei said earnestly, "I was worried you'd forget, so I swapped it for nuts."

"Nuts are much more expensive than cafeteria meals, why this gift?" Jiang Nian gasped, this costs over thirty.

Zhou Haifei said, "Read about it in a magazine, there's a section on gift-giving. I got a double red envelope, so it's not expensive."

My gosh, so sincere.

"Okay, thanks." Jiang Nian waved, "Hit me up next time you need something, I'm off to study now."

"Yep." Zhou Haifei waved earnestly.

....

Jiang Nian entered the classroom only to find several early risers. They were either slumped over writing problems or frowning, deep in study.

As the provincial joint examination approached, there were always people who wanted to sharpen their skills at the last minute.

What surprised him the most was that Zeng You actually got up extraordinarily early, and was scribbling on a blank test paper at this moment.

"Why are you here so early?"

"Preparing for the exam, of course." Zeng You turned his head and said earnestly, "How can I go home for the holidays with low scores?"

Fangfang was still the same as usual, and couldn't help but crack a smile at his words.

"Will you make it on time?"

"No problem, this is how I always prepare for exams." Zeng You raised an eyebrow, boasting, "Three days, three days are enough for me."

"A genius, Zeng You." Jiang Nian praised him.

"Alas, it's not like before." Zeng You leaned back in his chair, "I haven't done questions in so long, I was just staring blankly at a symbol for a while."

Jiang Nian couldn't hold back either, "Damn, is your review starting from prenatal education?"

Zeng You laughed sheepishly, "It's normal, this is my unique trick. Have you seen Taiji Zhang Sanfeng? You have to forget first to learn."

"By the way, Brother Nian, do you want to learn?"

"No need." Jiang Nian leaned back in his chair too, throwing his problem set onto the desk with a bang, "I already have a beautiful girl teaching me."

"You're late, but you can queue up."

"Damn!" Zeng You cursed angrily, "Who's better at pretending than you? Later I'll ask who taught you."

"You damn well would say, which of them?"

Jiang Nian grinned without saying a word, high school was like a small society. It's just that the relationships were simpler, and the compliments more sincere.

Some people were obsessed with studying, some were obsessed with love. All day long talking about their little sweetheart, and some were obsessed with their phones.

Someone like him had crawled up from the bottom. Played enough, studied enough, and had more profound insights.

If you don't use your learning talents, they'll be taken away.

Nearing morning self-study.

Li Hua slipped in, holding a bun in his hand. To guard against this scoundrel Jiang Nian, he took the bun to the bathroom.

That gluttonous boy, he ate everything.

Ma Guojun also came in, asking curiously.

"Is Li Hua having a stomach ache? I just saw him in the hallway walking while holding his stomach, looking terribly strained."

"Oh, probably burned by the bun." Jiang Nian looked up and said, "He took the bun to the bathroom, you can go see."

"Damn, who the hell would want to see that!" Ma Guojun almost puked, "This guy's crazy, isn't he?"

Jiang Nian thought for a moment and said, "Afraid of it being stolen, maybe."

At those words, Ma Guojun was stunned. Then he remembered there was someone even crazier, someone who'd directly peel a bun.

"I'm convinced, both of you are quite ridiculous."

Today Li Qingrong didn't arrive at the last minute, she came a bit early. Her test papers rarely needed much correction, a quick glance was usually enough.

As soon as she sat down, Jiang Nian in front immediately turned around.

"Did you rest well last night?"

"Mhm." Li Qingrong had gone to bed quite early last night, waking up in a strange house, her mood improved along with it.

After all, being away from home meant her worries couldn't find her.

She came to her senses and realized that last night, she might have unintentionally passed on her negative emotions to Jiang Nian, who was helping her.

So, she arrived at the classroom ahead of time.

She looked at Jiang Nian, hesitated for a moment, then parted her red lips.

"Yesterday I…"

"It was fragrant." Jiang Nian chuckled, asking, "Qingqing, what did you use? It smelled good even across the living room."

Li Qingrong pressed her lips together, momentarily at a loss for words.

"Body lotion."

"No wonder your skin is so good, smooth like milk." Jiang Nian continued to praise, his words growing more and more exaggerated.

Li Qingrong looked down and turned away again.

Didn't want to talk anymore.

Some people might be insensitive, but some are just pure in the head. Even in low-pressure atmospheres, what they're thinking of still involves slurping goodness.

One could only say, unbeatable.

Sun Zhicheng walked in through the classroom door, looking full of energy.

Last night, Lin Dong had brought him along on an adventure, suddenly opening up a new world for him. Earning money was so easy.

What mattered wasn't money, but the sense of accomplishment.

In the front row, Chen Yunyun and Wang Yuhe had already arrived early. Last night, they snuck into the teacher's dormitory area through the side gate, hurriedly showered.

Then, carrying their change of clothes, they rushed back to the dormitory.

They slipped in two minutes before the door closed.

At this moment, Sun Zhicheng was feeling incredibly proud and really wanted to boast loudly. But because he had to keep it a secret, he felt incredibly uncomfortable.

Just then Lin Dong arrived, and as soon as he sat down he heard his tablemate Sun Zhicheng say, "Brother Dong, you're really awesome. I have to say you're a genius at making money. If I were a girl, I'd definitely like you."

Lin Dong's expression changed dramatically, and he said, "No, don't repay kindness with enmity."

He couldn't understand why the dog Sun Zhicheng had nothing to do so early in the morning. Why was he suddenly praising him like this, what the hell was he up to?

Then he heard Sun Zhicheng say, "Doesn't Jiang Nian also want to find a way? I feel that you and I, Brother Dong, are more reliable."

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong was immediately choked on his own saliva.

"Cough cough cough!!"

He nearly coughed his lungs out, and his face turned fiery red. Damn it, how could his small dealings compare with Jiang Nian?

"Stop talking, stop talking."

Don't embarrass your brother, what did your brother ever do to offend you?

Sun Zhicheng nodded, worshipping Lin Dong even more in his heart. He thought, people who truly do great things are indeed modest.

He himself would surely succeed too!
