Chapter 63 I carry my bag by myself
Jiang Nuan entered the classroom later than Lu Ran.
Today is the day when the final grades are issued. The exam papers will be explained in the morning, and the parents’ meeting will be held in the afternoon. Although the students were chatting, the whole classroom was filled with a tense and uneasy atmosphere.
This is the last exam before the third year of senior high school. The teacher will definitely analyze to the parents who came to the afternoon meeting again based on the exam results to analyze the level of their children in the college entrance examination.
It’s not just about having a good summer vacation, but also about the stress that comes after.
When Jiang Nuan walked into the classroom, Lu Ran was already sitting in her seat, and her schoolbag was stuffed into the drawer.
Jiang Nuan looked at it, and it seemed that none of her classmates cared about Lu Ran carrying her schoolbag, so she sat down.
Lu Ran, who was beside him, said lightly, “It is normal for other people to have your schoolbag in my hand.”
As the head teacher, Teacher Nie, walked in, the students who were chatting suddenly became quiet.
Only the sound of the air conditioner and the cicadas outside the window could be heard in the entire classroom.
Jiang Nuan is the type who has been abused for thousands of times by her grades, and has long been rough-skinned, but this time she was still nervous. She tugged at her school pants with both hands. His palms were almost sweating.
A hand next to her covered the back of her right hand, gently pulled her hand down, and slowly opened her tense fingers.
The temperature of that hand was neither hot nor cold, it was as calm as a calm river, and Jiang Nuan’s rushing heartbeat slowly calmed down.
“You’re so cute.”
This was the second time that Lu Ran said she was “cute”, and every time these two words overflowed from Lu Ran’s lips, there was always a hint of softness.
His voice was low, restrained and just speaking to her.
Jiang Nuan turned his face away.
While the teacher was still calling his name and handing out the papers, Lu Ran continued, “You are not afraid of the close call, but you are nervous about the test scores.”
“Jiang Nuan—” Teacher Nie finally read her name, then he lowered his head, squinted at Jiang Nuan’s paper, and turned it over specially.
Jiang Nuan left her seat and came to the podium. Seeing Teacher Nie’s expression, she immediately became nervous.
Did you fail the exam this time?
Jiang Nuan’s hand was held again… It’s over… it’s over… I must have failed the exam somewhere, otherwise the teacher wouldn’t be able to read his paper for so long.
“Jiang Nuan, you scored 248 in the comprehensive science test this time. There are only six people in the class who scored more than 240 in the comprehensive science test. You have to share your learning experience with everyone!”
Hearing this, Jiang Nuan finally let go of her heart. She took the test paper and returned to her seat, looking at her score as she walked. As soon as she sat down, Lu Ran’s hand reached out and took the test paper away.
“Look at yourself…”
Just as Jiang Nuan was about to take back his papers, Lu Ran suddenly leaned over and felt the temperature that was about to touch his cheek, both like a beast approaching and a gentle persuasion. Jiang Nuan immediately opened the distance between himself and Lu Ran.
I don’t know if it was an illusion. The more she wanted to hide her closeness to Lu Ran in front of her classmates, the more Lu Ran had to approach her in public.
“Your loss of points is basically related to chemistry. You still have to work on chemistry.” Lu Ran said softly.
“Got it.”
When the papers for mathematics, Chinese and English were all handed out, Jiang Nuan’s total score was ranked eighth in the class and thirty-second in the whole grade.
She was overjoyed by this result, and bumped Lu Ran with her elbow: “Look, I’m still three places away from your first exam room!”
“You are already in the first exam room.” Lu Ran replied lightly.
When the bell rang, the teacher left the classroom, and the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became noisy.
Lu Ran lay down, resting on his arm and closed his eyes.
Jiang Nuan tugged at Lu Ran’s arm in confusion.
“Thirty people in one exam room… I’m thirty-two in the whole grade, why is it in the first exam room?”
No matter how Jiang Nuan dragged Lu Ran, Lu Ran slept with his eyes closed.
Jiang Nuan looked around again and found that Rao Can was blinking at him, looking like he was watching your good show.
Jiang Nuan had no choice but to purse his lips, imitating Lu Ran’s appearance, and also lay down on the table to sleep.
She closed her eyes, thinking I was sleeping too.
But when she opened her eyes slightly, she found that Lu Ran was looking at her.
“I teach you mathematics, physics and chemistry, and you never pay tuition. You stay in my heart and you never pay rent.”
Jiang Nuan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood what Lu Ran meant by “You were already in the first exam room”.
His face was about to drip blood in an instant, Jiang Nuan pursed his lips and turned his face to the other side, “You can’t think of me if you don’t think about the exam questions!”
“Usually there is still a lot of time left after finishing the papers.”
Jiang Nuan could not wait to bury his face in the table.
“This is the classroom…”
“I’m just telling you.”
The afternoon was the time for the parents’ meeting, and Cheng Doudou looked downcast and probably didn’t pass the exam. Rao Can is very indifferent, she has always been stable, but she has been joking around Jiang Nuan.
Jiang Nuan glanced at Lu Ran who was standing beside him, and whispered, “I should carry my schoolbag by myself…”
“I stuffed everything in your head, you still can’t bear your schoolbag?” Lu Ran’s voice was lazy.
But there is a bit of “what can you do” in such laziness.
Ever since Jiang Nuan knew what this guy had designed in last semester, he could somewhat understand the bad intentions under his polite appearance.
He was not afraid of being found out that he liked her, and he even wished the whole world would know.
But Jiang Nuan was not Lu Ran, she was not the kind of reassuring master since she was a child.
When Lu Ran falls in love, adults may say that he has self-control, even when he is “acting” and feels depressed, and then flips over again, “When I was in love, I was the first in the grade, you won’t let me fall in love, I even I don’t even want to go to the college entrance examination.” Who can take him?
But if Jiang Nuan is discovered to be in love, the teacher will teach her not to fall in love early, and her heartbroken father will worry that her performance will plummet when she finally lifts off like a rocket, and her pregnancy will be shattered; She also throws test strips in the bathroom because her good friend came a few days late!
“Give me the schoolbag.” Jiang Nuan was a little unhappy.
You have the ability to be arrogant, don’t bring me.
Jiang Nuan was originally standing on Lu Ran’s right side, but this guy turned his wrist, and his left hand directly changed her schoolbag from the right shoulder to Zuo’s left shoulder. The movement was smooth and natural, and Jiang Nuan threw his feet in the air.
“I said I will carry the schoolbag myself!”
Jiang Nuan stomped her feet, and then turned from behind Lu Ran to his left. Who knew that Lu Ran stretched out his right hand to catch her, and pressed her directly to him.
Just as Jiang Nuan wanted to move, Lu Ran tightened his arms, and half of Jiang Nuan’s face was about to be pushed into Lu Ran’s arms.
The ups and downs of Lu Ran’s chest and the sound of his heartbeat were so obvious, Jiang Nuan raised his eyelids and saw Cheng Doudou holding spicy strips looking at them in surprise, while Rao Can folded his arms and sighed.
“Is our… Master Xue Shen teasing Xiao Nuan?”
“Yeah, I don’t even want to watch it…”
Rao Can shook his head, walked over, and asked amusingly, “What are you two doing?”
Jiang Nuan tried to press Lu Ran’s hand down, but Lu Ran squeezed her into his arms even harder, with an expression of “I didn’t do anything” on his face.
“He won’t return my schoolbag!” Jiang Nuan nudged each other with his elbow.
Rao Can replied something that made Jiang Nuan vomit blood: “Of course the girl’s bag is given to her boyfriend.”
“He is not……”
“Not what?” Lu Ran’s brows twitched, like the tip of a saber swiping across Jiang Nuan’s heart, and his whole body froze instantly.
He turned his face to the side and lowered his chin, those eyes were brighter than she had imagined, and with a touch of determination, he decided, bit it, and never let go.
“I… I’m not bad enough to carry a schoolbag!”
Just as the bus came, Jiang Nuan hurried to the bus.
Lu Ran didn’t drag her anymore, but got into the car behind Rao Can and Cheng Doudou.
As soon as Jiang Nuan got in the car and found that there was a seat, he sat down, Rao Can pushed Cheng Doudou and asked her to sit up, but Cheng Doudou grabbed the armrest and shook his head desperately: “That’s Lu Ran’s position… I dare not… ”
Jiang Nuan had already patted the position beside him, but Cheng Doudou just couldn’t get there. At this time, Lu Ran lowered his body and said softly, “Go and sit.”
Cheng Doudou felt as if he had received the imperial decree. Just as he was about to step forward, who knew that Rao Can sat down first. She raised her eyes and looked at Cheng Doudou with an expression of “sitting for you, but not for it”.
Feeling the sight of Lu Ran standing beside him, Jiang Nuan immediately lowered his head.
Rao Can leaned on Jiang Nuan’s shoulder and said, “Xiao Nuan, did Lu Ran have a showdown with you?”
As soon as he said this, Jiang Nuan got excited, leaned into Rao Can’s ear and said, “Let me tell you, he has had a crush on me since last semester! While he taught me those questions, he exploited me and asked me to give He did this and that, causing the whole class… ah, no, the whole grade and the whole school thought I was interested in him! You can’t say too much!”
Lu Ran looked at her sideways, with a hint of teasing in his eyes calmly, as if saying “I know what you’re talking about even if I don’t listen”.
Rao Can was a little surprised when he heard this, and replied, “Lu Ran has a blind crush on you?”
Jiang Henan didn’t call him anywhere: “He is! I couldn’t bear it in the club that day, and I exposed him in public! Who knew he would… just admit it! Then he became arrogant!”
Rao Can gave Jiang Nuan a white look: “This is a declaration of sovereignty! Do you know what you look like when you hide your head and hide your ears?”
“Huh? Like what?”
Without waiting for Rao Can to answer, Lu Ran, who was standing beside the seat, spoke directly: “Like a groundhog, you can still sell well when you get it cheap.”
“……you……”
Jiang Nuan was blocked, and Rao Can next to him made up the knife: “As expected of a scholar, the metaphor is very appropriate.”
Jiang Nuan had a sense of loneliness that Lu Ran was staring at and abandoned by relatives and friends.
At this time, Lu Ran lowered his body and tugged Jiang Nuan’s shoulder directly.
“Come out, get off at the station.”
“Ah? It’s not home yet!”
“I’ve arrived at the Provincial Sword Federation. Go and hand in the registration form.”
As soon as Lu Ran turned around, Jiang Nuan immediately stood up and squeezed out, “Rao Can! Doudou! I’ll get off first!”
Just as Jiang Nuan squeezed out of her seat, Lu Ran grabbed her wrist. The other party held her tightly and took her out of the bus.
Because recently, the Provincial Swords Federation has been receiving application forms from young people, and there are many students nearby and even parents who accompany the students.
The temperature had reached thirty-two degrees, and the noon sun fell on Jiang Nuan’s arm. Lu Ran released Jiang Nuan’s wrist, then clasped her arm and moved her to his position. Jiang Nuan was there. Under the shield of the platform, Lu Ran stood under the sun.
“You don’t have to…don’t do this to me…”
I’m not used to it…
I’m used to coming in the wind and going in the rain. I can handle the small things by myself, and find a way to handle the big things. I can’t bear it when you “take care of me” like that!
Lu Ran raised his chin. In front of him happened to be He Zheng holding a girl in his arms. He was carrying the girl’s schoolbag on his shoulders, and with the other hand he held an umbrella for the girl to cover the sun. This service is really considerate!
“I think I like you more than He Zheng towards that girl.” Lu Ran said this in a very impressive voice, like standing up and reading the formula in class.
“…I see…” Jiang Nuan’s ears started to heat up again.
This is sun tanned!
“You don’t know at all. In fact, every time I see other boys with the girl I like, hugging each other on the bus, I am very envious, I will think in my heart, and I want to hug you like them. .”
Jiang Nuan lowered his head, Lu Ran had kept the words in his stomach before, with a look of no desire and no desire, and suddenly said it like this, Jiang Nuan felt that his heart was being kneaded again and again by the other party, and it was almost too late. Know how to beat.
She suddenly realized that every time she took the bus with Lu Ran, was this guy leaning on her on purpose?
“Ah! We got on the bus together during the midterm exam! You…you hugged the ancient text I recited! There were not many people at that time, you…you are…”
“I did it on purpose.” Lu Ran turned his face to look at Jiang Nuan.
Before she could speak, the green light across the road turned on, and Lu Ran pulled Jiang Nuan and walked forward.
He is tall and straight, and anyone who has participated in a large-scale fencing competition in Nanshi should not know Lu Ran. , parents and coaches. Jiang Nuan turned her head to the side, for fear of being recognized who she was.
If anyone mentions going to his father’s place, she will be interrogated!
Lu Ran was very clear about the entire registration process and registration location. He didn’t need to look at the blue arrows, and took Jiang Nuan directly to the place where the registration form was submitted.
The staff responsible for collecting and registering forms immediately laughed when they saw Lu Ran.
“Lu Ran, it’s too early to hand in the registration form today. We are still discussing, you may not focus on the youth league this year, and you will focus on the national championship.”
“As long as it’s a competition I’ve participated in, it’s my focus.”
The staff glanced at Jiang Nuan’s registration form. When they saw the column for guardians and coaches, they were stunned, and then looked at her again.
“Let’s go, let’s have lunch.” Lu Ran pressed Jiang Nuan’s head with his hand as if he didn’t see the surprised eyes of others.
When she turned around, she heard the staff member talking to the entry clerk.
“Oh my god, she’s Jiang Huai’s daughter! Why haven’t I seen her compete in the competition before?”
“Jiang Huai’s daughter? You mean that famous coach — Jiang Huai’s daughter?”
“Yeah, no wonder Lu Ran accompanied him to hand in the registration form!”
Listening to their chat, Jiang Nuan suddenly felt a pressure in her heart. This time her performance in the competition was not only her own, but also related to her father.
“What are you nervous about? For a women’s saber at the provincial level, even if you step on your shoelace, you can win the championship.”
Jiang Nuan smiled unconsciously, why does Lu Ran have more confidence in herself every time she teases her?
They had only taken two steps when a big-eyed girl with a ponytail in front of them leaned against the wall with her arms folded, watching them.
“Lu Ran, long time no see. You just said that it’s no problem who wins the championship?”
Jiang Nuan was stunned for a moment. It’s not that she didn’t watch the provincial trials of the National Youth Fencing League last year. She was Tan Yi, the champion of the U14 category in the province last year, and the top four in the national competition.
She is from Nanshi No. 2 Middle School, and she is also a well-known beauty in their provincial club.
The school uniform jacket was wrapped around her waist and knotted lazily. Her face is confident and calm. She is different from Jiang Nuan who has never experienced a real competition. At their age, she can be considered a battle-hardened person.
“I said she has no problem winning the championship.” Lu Ran directly raised his left hand, and he was holding Jiang Nuan’s hand.
Jiang Nuan patted his head hard in his heart, God Lu Ran, you are picking on something!
Sure enough, Tan Yan’s meticulous brows furrowed, and he let out a groan, then walked to Jiang Nuan, turned his face to the side and looked at Jiang Nuan carefully.
“Since you came in the registration center, you have been holding her hand. I thought she was either beautiful or had an unusual temperament, but she was ordinary no matter what.” Tan Yan raised her eyes and looked at Lu Ran, “Lu Of course, what’s on your mind?”
Lu Ran replied directly: “I want her to win the provincial championship quickly, and we can go to the imperial capital together during the summer vacation.”
Although Jiang Nuan knew that Lu Ran was direct, was it so direct that he would choke to death?
“You should know that the National Junior Fencing Championships are also the cradle and outpost of the National Fencing Championships. Basically, in the U16 category, those with outstanding performance will be favored by strong fencing schools like B University and Haichuan University. I’m serious. Yes, and others are also serious.” Tan Yi looked at Lu Ran, she was a proud flower, and success was a normal thing for her.
“I didn’t say that anyone would not be serious.”
After speaking, Lu Ran pulled Jiang Nuan over and walked past Tan Yan’s side.
