Jiang Ping's original intention was to remind Li Linxiang through Li Qian to be cautious about possible accidents recently, but he did not expect such a reaction from the girl.
However, any man with normal intelligence would not explain in such a situation, and Jiang Ping also went along with it, saying, "What I did was right, but you must remember to remind Teacher Li. I really have a premonition that something will happen soon!"
Jiang Ping's concern made Li Qian feel as sweet as honey, and she felt she should not辜负 his kindness. After a moment's thought, she nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll remind him. But I can't say it was your dream; I'll say it was my dream!"
Knowing that Li Qian said this meant she took his words seriously, Jiang Ping secretly breathed a sigh of relief. However, Jiang Ping did not forget to remind Li Qian that if her father encountered anything unusual recently, she must not forget to tell him.
The reason Jiang Ping said this was, of course, to find out what the purple aura represented. But in Li Qian's eyes, this was naturally another sign of Jiang Ping's concern for her. This deeply moved the girl, and she gazed at Jiang Ping, nodding gently to show that she would listen to him.
For Jiang Ping, reminding Li Qian to warn Li Linxiang was already the limit of what he could do. As for the final outcome, it was beyond his control. After all, Jiang Ping had done everything he could, and as the saying goes, "Do your best and leave the rest to fate." For Jiang Ping, as long as he could be at peace with himself, there would be no regrets.
Li Qian, of course, did not know how much Jiang Ping had thought about it. Instead, she asked him softly, "Are you still dizzy now? What did the doctor say? Should we wait until after the college entrance exam to do a full check-up? That way, you can be more at ease."
Feeling the girl's deep concern, Jiang Ping was also somewhat moved. However, in his previous life, he was not good at expressing his emotions, and this flaw had not changed in this life.
So Jiang Ping did not say anything grateful to Li Qian. He just smiled and said, "I was still a bit dizzy, but after seeing you, I'm fine now. I feel great!"
Seeing Jiang Ping acting so carefree, Li Qian gave him a shy glance. However, the faint smile on her face showed that Jiang Ping's words made her very happy.
The class bell interrupted their conversation. Although they had to face some strange looks from their classmates when they returned to the classroom, Li Qian, who was in a good mood, did not care too much. As for Jiang Ping, he cared even less. With the soul of an older man, he did not care about what these young classmates thought of him. Amid the mixed looks of envy and jealousy from the male classmates, Jiang Ping calmly returned to his seat, waiting for the teacher to start the review class.
For Jiang Ping, the day was uneventful except for the discovery of the faint purple aura on Li Linxiang's forehead in the morning. Apart from taking the opportunity to absorb some spiritual energy from the Jiajing Tongbao he carried with him, he attended classes diligently, and before he knew it, it was time to go home.
Although Jiang Ping and Li Qian had already surpassed the relationship of ordinary classmates, to avoid unnecessary trouble, they did not go home together after school.
Li Qian deliberately stayed behind to talk to her desk mate, Yu Menghua, giving Jiang Ping the chance to leave first. Jiang Ping did not say much to the girl, just subtly gave her a look, and then left the classroom with his schoolbag.
However, Jiang Ping did not notice that Zhou Xiang, who had always been the first to leave after school in the past few days, did not rush home this time. He was pretending to tidy up his schoolbag, but his eyes were fixed on Jiang Ping, revealing deep hatred.
"Go, go," Zhou Xiang thought to himself with a smug smile as he watched Jiang Ping leave the classroom, "The faster you go, the sooner you'll be in trouble!"
Jiang Ping took his bicycle from the school's bike shed and walked slowly toward the school gate. Although he wanted to get home early, it was the time when the senior high school students were leaving, and the school gate was quite crowded, so he could not go fast.
Just as Jiang Ping was about fifty meters from the school gate, his best friend Zhang Jun suddenly came hurrying from the front. Seeing Jiang Ping, Zhang Jun's tense expression eased slightly, and he pulled him into a nearby small garden.
Confused by Zhang Jun's actions, Jiang Ping could not help but complain, "Bro, I'm in a hurry to get home. If you want to play around, go to Yu Menghua's place, not to me!"
Zhang Jun and Yu Menghua had mutual feelings for each other, but they had never confessed. Only a few people knew about this, and Jiang Ping, being Zhang Jun's best friend, was one of them. This was Zhang Jun's weakness, and whenever Jiang Ping mentioned Yu Menghua, he would immediately become obedient.
However, Zhang Jun was acting abnormally today. Even when Jiang Ping mentioned Yu Menghua, he did not calm down. Instead, he pulled Jiang Ping into the small garden and then lowered his voice, saying, "Don't joke around, there are people waiting for you at the school gate!"
"Could it be Jiang Jun and his gang again?" Jiang Ping sneered, "It seems we didn't beat them hard enough last time; they haven't learned their lesson!"
The last time on the rooftop, Jiang Ping had subdued Jiang Jun and his gang by surprising them and being ruthless. But this did not mean that Jiang Ping would be afraid of them now that they were prepared.
After all, Jiang Jun and his gang were just high school students. They might be able to scare other students, but they were no match for Jiang Ping. People like Jiang Jun were not even real hooligans; they relied on their courage to fight. Even if Jiang Jun and his gang dared to face Jiang Ping again, their morale would not be as high as before. As long as Jiang Ping used his strength to scare them, they would likely repeat the same mistake as on the rooftop.
Moreover, Jiang Ping had already started practicing the Xuan Kong Jue. Although he had only been practicing for a few days, his physical training had already shown some results. Now, Jiang Ping could run several kilometers without feeling tired and could do nearly a hundred push-ups in one go, showing a significant improvement in his physical condition since his rebirth.
Most importantly, Jiang Ping's practice of the Xuan Kong Jue's breathing technique had made significant progress. He could already guide his breath to circulate along a specific path in his body, even though the distance was short. This indicated that he had entered the initial stage of the breathing technique.
Do not underestimate this; even at the initial stage, the breathing technique could significantly improve Jiang Ping's physical condition. This improvement was not just in strength but also in speed, agility, and reaction time. In street fights, these factors were key to winning, which was why Jiang Ping was so confident.
However, Zhang Jun was not as optimistic as Jiang Ping. He anxiously said, "This time, it's not just Jiang Jun and his gang, but also the Four Great Diamonds from outside the school!"
