Rebirth: Slice-of-life Cultivation

Chapter 1721 - 940: Wrapping Up

The titanium gray electric scooter zipped through the road, and Xin Youling hugged the handicapped kitten, feeling as though her future was nearly shattered.

As nightfall approached, Jiang Ning turned on the dazzling lights of the scooter, blending into the traffic, merging with the crowd.

Xin Youling was still anxious, not wanting to face criminal charges: "Jiang Ning, you just hit someone and ran."

Jiang Ning maintained his calm demeanor: "It’s not the first time."

Xin Youling became even more worried: "Wait, are you a fugitive?"

Jiang Ning: "Old auntie said there aren’t any cameras in that place. Do you know what recidivist intuition is?"

Xin Youling saw he didn’t look like he was lying, so her heart eased a bit, calming down to think. The Jiang Ning she remembered was always steady, never impulsive.

This kind of person truly gives off a sense of reliability.

"Besides, I’m the one who fought, why should you worry?" Jiang Ning rode steadily.

Xin Youling thought about it and realized it was true, but she was loyal: "The key point is, you stood up for me."

Jiang Ning: "Once the key point is found, the problem is solved."

Xin Youling: "The key point is that this is a matter of principle!"

Jiang Ning: "For matters of principle, the key point must be the focus."

Xin Youling almost choked, both angry and amused: ’Are you messing with me here?’

Jiang Ning calculated the time and said, "I’ll find a pet hospital for you later, to treat the cat’s leg. I have other things to do."

"What things?"

Jiang Ning: "Xue Yuantong is still hungry, need to bring her some food."

Xin Youling was incredulous: "What?"

In fact, to Jiang Ning, Tongtong’s hunger was more important.

At a pet shop, he dropped off Xin Youling and then went to buy dinner for Tongtong.

When he arrived at the school gate, he met Dong Qingfeng riding a pink scooter.

Dong Qingfeng had bought a course, on his way to getting stronger.

Earlier, he’d donned protective gear and sparred with the coach. Truly, he was like a child in front of the coach.

The coach easily floored Dong Qingfeng.

If he could gain such skills...

Just thinking about it made Dong Qingfeng a bit excited.

He nodded to greet Jiang Ning, thinking to himself: ’Next time, it won’t be just you shining!’

Jiang Ning responded, then twisted the throttle and accelerated into the campus; Dong Qingfeng instinctively tried to catch up, but the guard gestured and shouted: "Stop, stop!"

Dong Qingfeng’s enthusiasm instantly cooled.

The security reprimanded: "He’s registered with the principal!"

...

Jiang Ning was delayed, arriving late.

He entered the classroom and immediately met Tongtong’s stern gaze.

She immediately questioned, "Where did you go?"

Jiang Ning said, "The restaurant was slow with the fried rice, took some time."

"Hmph, maybe you were just dragging it out to enjoy yourself outside!" Tongtong saw through his intentions.

Jiang Ning held the packed dinner: "Well, do you want to eat?"

Xue Yuantong: "Eat!"

Jiang Ning chuckled scornfully: "Glutton."

Xue Yuantong snapped: "Not eating!"

Jiang Ning: "Truly don’t want to eat? The fried rice smells great, with two eggs, and I got you hot braised flavors and fresh watermelon juice..."

Xue Yuantong gave in: "Eat!"

Jiang Ning criticized: "Truly, your willpower is weak."

Nearby, Chen Siyu secretly clicked her tongue: ’Tongtong is just like his toy!’

Xue Yuantong endured indignation, continued eating, planning to fill up before seeking revenge.

Shortly, evening self-study began.

Xin Youling took leave to treat the cat’s leg.

Dong Qingfeng silently read, but his mind drifted to the private sparring lesson tomorrow at noon.

Everyday-focused Chen Siyu whispered with Bai Yuxia: "Which one do you want to look at?"

Xue Yuantong caught their conversation, promptly asking: "Look at what?"

Chen Siyu: "Look at selfies."

Xue Yuantong dismissed it: "What’s there to see?"

Chen Siyu felt belittled, almost wanting to show all her treasured photos to Tongtong!

Luckily, she had the ultimate restraint, spared young Tongtong from torment.

Far off, Cui Yu, Meng Gui, and Liu Chuandao were discussing Yun Tingting’s selfies, claiming this woman’s selfies were so beautiful, they wanted them printed to keep!

Until Wang Longlong advised them to lower their voices.

Xue Yuantong, her thoughts swirling, remembered being teased by Jiang Ning at dinner, vowed revenge.

She took out her little phone, slyly snapped two delightful selfies, feeling self-satisfied.

Then began her baiting mode, blinking her eyes: "Jiang Ning, would you like to see my selfie?"

Jiang Ning dismissed her: "What’s there to see in a kid’s photos?"

Xue Yuantong took a hit.

...

The first evening self-study period ended.

Jiang Ning went to the east balcony for night breeze, Gong Jin also nearby, almost like an NPC of this balcony, vowed to limit Lin Zida and Zhuang Jianhui in the surrounding area.

Jiang Ning’s phone suddenly buzzed; it was a message from Ding Shuyan.

"Are you attending class at school?"

"Yes." Jiang Ning replied.

"I’m also in class."

Jiang Ning used Divine Sense to scan the neighboring class 1, Ding Shuyan was absent, as usual.

Jiang Ning: "What class are you attending if not at school?"

Ding Shuyan: "Thinking of you every moment."

Surpassed the master.

Jiang Ning pondered, praised: "Impressive, I want to know how you went this far down the rabbit hole?"

Half a minute passed.

Ding Shuyan sent a photo, it was a semi-concealed black veil short skirt, along with a pair of charmingly shapely legs.

She said: "Can you see the path I once walked?"

Jiang Ning saw it.

And invited her to walk the path with him tonight.

Sweater Aunt’s revenge was strong, tracking Xin Youling for a minor issue, and brutalizing her recent emotional support, the cow cat.

Jiang Ning, considerate of classmates, hadn’t obliterated her, but disliked leaving loose ends.

Outside the school, a white Mercedes G appeared roadside.

Ding Shuyan wore a Duckbill hat, still donned the black skirt, revealing distinctly white legs.

Jiang Ning chuckled, pulling such a stunt again, but... he was into it.

He flipped his palm, a White Jade Pendant appeared between his fingers, placing it on the armrest box, saying: "Wear it closely."

Ding Shuyan didn’t even glance at the pendant, she remained focused ahead, solemnly asking: "Where do you want to go?"

Jiang Ning observed her, her face mostly shielded by the hat brim, yet the exposed chin’s contour, still exquisitely beautiful.

Just, not too grounded.

He said: "Take it or leave it, why pretend?"

Ding Shuyan silently extended her hand like a Jade carving.
