Divorce Revenge System: Knowing the Future in Advance

Chapter 494: You Have to Film Something for New Year's Eve



Jiang Nian didn't feel much, shamelessly standing there.

He took advantage of Qianbao chatting with Old Liu to casually play with the little yellow duck that Qianbao had brought.

Qianbao turned her head and was instantly speechless.

What kind of person is this!

Jiang Nian met Qianbao's gaze, but didn't intend to let go. He nonchalantly looked down, continuing to squeeze the duck.

One can't deny, this duck is really ducky!

Qianbao: "...."

In a flash, it's the fourth period of evening self-study.

As it neared dismissal, the classroom was restless. Whether chatting or discussing problems, the buzzing was incessant and particularly noisy.

"Nian, tomorrow is New Year's Eve," Li Hua started the conversation, "Do you think we should commemorate it somehow?"

Jiang Nian looked up, stroking the rubber duck's head.

"Why?"

Zhang Ningzhi couldn't hold back, turning to stare at him.

"Because it's the last New Year's Eve of high school, it's inherently worth commemorating, isn't it meaningful?"

Jiang Nian met Zhizhi's soft gaze, swallowing his sarcastic words.

"Hmm... I guess so."

He wasn't really that concerned, actually more eager to grow up. University is freer than high school, just thinking about it is thrilling.

Zeng You turned his head, thoroughly disrupting the mood.

"What's there to commemorate about high school? It's nothing but suffering all day. It's after the college entrance exam that's worth celebrating; I'm going to play for three months!"

Hearing this, Li Hua completely lost it.

"No way, byd Zeng You, you spend all day reading novels and playing games. You've had all the fun already, where's your suffering?"

Zeng You gestured nonchalantly with his hand.

"Eh, same difference."

Listening to their discussion, Jiang Nian couldn't help but be a bit distracted. After New Year's Eve, there's the New Year holiday; should he go hiking?

Thinking about this, he turned to look at the class president.

Li Qingrong was writing problems, and sensing the gaze, lifted her cold eyes and glanced gently at Jiang Nian.

"Hmm?"

"I remember you have a DSLR, right?" Jiang Nian asked.

While helping Li Qingrong move, besides seeing the colors of her underwear and socks, he inadvertently came across a DSLR.

"Yeah." Li Qingrong nodded, lowered her eyes for a moment, and then asked, "Do you need it?"

"Yeah..."

"Then I'll give it to you tomorrow," Li Qingrong's eyes were clear, giving him another look, "or would you come and get it yourself?"

Jiang Nian thought about needing to review tomorrow, so he decisively chose the former.

"Better bring it to me."

Li Qingrong glanced at him, paused for a second, and then nodded.

"Okay."

Hearing this, Jiang Nian felt relieved.

No wonder she's the class president, really generous and accommodating.

He had wanted to play with it yesterday but was too embarrassed to ask. After all, they were busy packing and it felt inappropriate.

Now is perfect timing to borrow it.

He plans to record a New Year vlog for familiar people, letting them talk about their feelings and wishes for the new year.

One can predict, surely there'd be some "live up to one's youth" enthusiasts.

The people in class three are quite quirky; after the college entrance exam, he would edit this video separately and send it to each of them.

Let's see if you all blush after claiming to live up to your youth.

When he asked to borrow the DSLR from the class president, Zhang Ningzhi was already biting her lower lip in dissatisfaction, feeling a bit envious.

Why didn't he ask me?

Even though she didn't have a DSLR, she could borrow one.

Just a DSLR.

"Hmph."

Jiang Nian turned his head, looking confused.

"What's wrong?"

.....

After evening self-study dismissal.

When Jiang Nian was leaving the classroom with his bag, he happened to bump into Yu Zhiyi. They exchanged glances, both looking away with disdain.

"What's with your attitude?" Yu Zhiyi clenched her fist.

Clearly, she too had a disdainful look just now, but she doesn't allow Jiang Nian to show the same disdainful expression; it can only be said she's very adept at double standards.

"Go away, go away, go away." Jiang Nian wasn't taking it lightly.

"Hey, you..." Yu Zhiyi caught up with quick steps, yet started complaining about tomorrow's exercises and PE class.

"I wonder if there will be another physical fitness test; last time I almost died from exhaustion."

In the crowded staircase, Jiang Nian turned to glance at her. His gaze shifted slightly downward, hinting.

"How about getting a sporty one instead?"

Yu Zhiyi instantly understood, rolled her eyes.

"Forget it, too expensive."

They parted ways downstairs, one heading south, the other going north. The crowded open area felt dimly lit.

In the crowd, Jiang Nian found Xu Qianqian and glanced at Song Xiyun next to her.

"Let's go."

Xu Qianqian glanced at him, expressionless.

"Okay."

The three of them walked home together, with the two girls chatting away, while he walked beside them, lost in thought.

"Hey, I borrowed a DSLR," Jiang Nian suddenly said, "thinking of making a New Year video. Want to film tomorrow night?"

"How are we filming?" Xu Qianqian was stunned.

"Just say a bit about past retrospectives and future expectations," Jiang Nian replied, "there must be New Year's wishes, just say whatever comes to mind."

"What made you think of filming this?" Song Xiyun was curious.

"Nothing much, just wanted to record it," Jiang Nian smiled, "after the college entrance exam, it would be nice to look back."

He originally didn't have the notion, but the idea came, and he felt it was quite necessary; after all, filming a bit here and there is no trouble at all.

These bits of daily life, when looked back on later, are all treasures.

"Don't film me," Xu Qianqian said, "Just film Xiyun and let her say a few words."

"You're not a superstar," Jiang Nian pulled out his phone, "Come on, let me film you for a bit to get used to it."

"Hey!" Xu Qianqian slipped away immediately.

Jiang Nian chased her around the tree three or four times before she temporarily settled down.

"Is there anything particularly memorable?"

"No..." Xu Qianqian glanced at Jiang Nian who was close by, her face slightly red, "Your grades have improved a lot."

"What about you?" Jiang Nian turned his phone's camera towards Song Xiyun, who became suddenly flustered.

"Me? It should be... my mom returning to the county," Song Xiyun said nervously, "Got unemployed, found a job, and left again."

Indeed, this sense of drifting and instability can affect one's character too.

He really just filmed one segment, and called it a wrap.

"Save it for filming tomorrow, you guys can think of the words or something. When the evening party starts, I'll come find you."

Upon hearing this, Xu Qianqian rolled her eyes at him.

"Don't feel like thinking."

Song Xiyun reluctantly nodded but also looked somewhat "voluntarily forced".

"Alright then."

The three of them bickered all the way, unconsciously wandering to the alley entrance.

"Why not wait until New Year to film?" Xu Qianqian suddenly asked.

Jiang Nian was taken aback, then replied,

"Where can I find classmates to film during New Year? Everyone goes home. Right at hand, I can only film you guys."

"Pfft!" Xu Qianqian spat at him, "Who wants to be filmed by you? Go film yourself."

.....

After washing up.

Jiang Nian sat in his room doing exercises, his hair not completely dry. As he twirled his pen, he mused over the provincial joint exam.

The chemistry test was tough, but he managed to score over ninety.

Currently, he has nailed down chemistry and biology, the science subjects of arts, so his science exam score wouldn't be low.

Even scoring a passing grade in physics, he could easily break 240.

Ah, still a low-score kid.

When will he be able to score above ninety in physics?

Jiang Nian fantasized about a huge boost in his physics score, strutting around arrogantly in the class... seems like he's already doing that.

No worries, it's pretty good.

At two in the morning.

He put down his pen, picked up his phone from the desk. After replying to messages one by one, he quickly crawled into bed to sleep.

A senior high student's knack, falling asleep in a second.

Ding!

[You, at thirty-eight, standing at a crossroads in life....]

The panel popped up again.

Inopportune timing, just when Jiang Nian was getting sleepy, he could only open his bloodshot eyes to look at the task panel.

The panel has an adaptive feature, always aligning horizontally perpendicular to his gaze.

"Damn it!" Jiang Nian cursed, but he continued to read on, "If there's nothing good, I'll...."

"Forgive you."

This kind of system thing is a once-in-a-century encounter, what else can you do?

Just forgive it.

[You, at thirty-eight, have declining physical functions, often finding it hard to fall asleep at night. Good sleep is crucial to health.

Sleep is also an important means to combat aging.

Task: Learn a new life skill. Reward: Youthful feather-light golden sleep.]

After reading, Jiang Nian couldn't help but frown.

Youthful feather-light golden sleep?

This phrase seems odd, typically such phrases. Jiang Nian had only seen on things like... golden delay.

Although Jiang Nian is a virgin, in the system's memory fragments, he not only possessed the youth of a maiden but also had....

Love.

He hadn't experienced love firsthand, but his head retained some odd knowledge about it.

He was too sleepy, fell asleep right after reading.

The next day.

During morning self-study, Li Qingrong handed him a DSLR. As soon as he got the camera, Jiang Nian felt his energies align.

He kind of wanted to shoot... birds.

During the break between running exercises, he headed to the Chinese department's office with the camera bag.

"Aren't you skipping run exercises again? Wandering around all day, even if you're in good health, you can't keep skipping!"

Old Liu's face instantly darkened, frustrated by the street punk.

"Teacher, don't say that. This time, I have something serious to ask you," Jiang Nian grinned, placing the camera on his desk.

Old Liu was suddenly at a loss, looking at the camera bag with curiosity.

"What is it?"

"Didn't you say last time, that you won over your wife by being versatile, mastering photography, guitar, singing?"

"I borrowed a camera from the class president, planning to record a video on New Year's Eve, but I don't really know how to use it, could you, teacher...."

Upon hearing this, Old Liu's face twitched.

This brat can borrow anything, guarding against early campus romance. Always reminding, no effect at all?

"Cameras are not cheap, you managed to borrow one?"

"Good connections."

Jiang Nian grinned, thinking borrowing a camera was nothing. Had it not been for his self-awareness, he would've been driving a car by now.

"Good camaraderie among committee members, makes sense, right?"

"Like hell it does!"

Old Liu almost lost his cool, glancing several times at the camera.

"Just tell me the truth, what's your relationship with the class president. I won't hold it against you, did you two start dating?"

Jiang Nian put down the cup and earnestly said.

"Not dating."
