Chapter 59

In fact, Li Qian’s standing up for Jiang Ping just now was already the limit of what she could do. If the person being framed was not Jiang Ping, the girl would absolutely not have had the courage to refute Wang Fang.

However, Li Qian was, after all, just a high school student. When it came to verbal sparring, she naturally couldn’t compare with a middle-aged woman like Wang Fang. The girl was left speechless by the other’s words, feeling both angry and wronged, with her eyes even turning red. Tears welled up in Li Qian’s eyes, and if it weren’t for the many people around, she would have burst into tears long ago.

Seeing that Li Qian didn’t know what to say, Wang Fang couldn’t help but feel even more pleased. A cruel expression appeared on her plump face, and she planned to use even more offensive words to provoke Li Qian. Wang Fang wasn’t afraid of others saying she was bullying the young. Why should she be, when this little girl had the audacity to stand up for Jiang Ping? If she didn’t teach her a lesson, it would be a disservice to herself and her precious son.

Zhou Xiang also knew how sharp his mother’s tongue was. Seeing that she intended to press her advantage, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face. In his view, as long as his mother said a few more things about Li Qian, she would definitely cry. Encountering such a situation before the exam would certainly have a significant impact on Li Qian. This way, what Zhou Xiang had wanted to do but couldn’t through the Four Musketeers would be accomplished by his mother’s hands.

However, Zhou Xiang forgot that Jiang Ping was still there. Seeing Li Qian being wronged, Jiang Ping naturally wouldn’t stand idly by. Without waiting for Wang Fang to speak again, Jiang Ping already pulled Li Qian’s arm and walked forward.

Seeing Jiang Ping and Li Qian about to leave, Wang Fang wanted to pursue them relentlessly but was unexpectedly stopped by Jiang Ping’s loud voice: “Let’s go quickly! When you encounter a mad dog barking at you on the street, the best way is to walk away quickly. Would you bark back at the mad dog? What if you get bitten?”

Li Qian, who had been feeling wronged, couldn’t help but laugh out loud at Jiang Ping’s words. The girl had to admit that Jiang Ping’s analogy was too vivid. Li Qian had indeed been very depressed, but Jiang Ping’s simple words made her see things clearly. Yes, why should she take Wang Fang seriously; that would be lowering herself.

Seeing Li Qian’s mood improve, Jiang Ping smiled at her and said, “People like her look down on you. The more she talks about you, the better you should perform in the exam. At least you should do better than her son. That will definitely make her furious!”

Jiang Ping was worried that Wang Fang’s words would affect Li Qian’s mood and cause her to perform poorly in the exam, so he used these words to encourage her.

Jiang Ping’s words were indeed effective. Li Qian immediately nodded firmly, “Yes, I will definitely do better than Zhou Xiang. I absolutely can’t let that despicable person outdo me!”

Seeing Li Qian’s renewed determination, Jiang Ping smiled with relief. However, every word they said was heard by Wang Fang, which made her almost explode with anger. If it weren’t for the fact that it was her son’s college entrance exam day and there were many teachers and classmates around, she would have started cursing like a泼妇 (shrew) long ago.

However, even so, Wang Fang didn’t plan to let Jiang Ping and Li Qian off. She shouted from behind, “You two little rascals, be careful! The matter of framing my son won’t be let go. We’ll settle accounts after the college entrance exam!”

Although Wang Fang was still shouting, Li Qian no longer paid attention to her words. Jiang Ping smiled at the girl and whispered, “Can you watch my bicycle for a moment? I need to make a call on the other side of the road.”

“Okay!” Li Qian immediately nodded and obediently held Jiang Ping’s bicycle handle.

Jiang Ping then walked to the other side of the road but deliberately passed by Zhou Xiang.

At first, Zhou Xiang was very nervous when he saw Jiang Ping approaching him. He still hadn’t forgotten the scene on the rooftop and was afraid that Jiang Ping, provoked by his mother’s words, would beat him up right there, which would be very unlucky.

However, Zhou Xiang soon realized that if Jiang Ping really dared to attack him here, he wouldn’t be able to take the exam. This suited Zhou Xiang’s intentions, so he immediately glared at Jiang Ping with a challenging look, hoping to provoke him into action.

To Zhou Xiang’s disappointment, Jiang Ping seemed to completely ignore him and walked past him directly. This made Zhou Xiang secretly sigh in relief while also feeling a bit disappointed.

However, Zhou Xiang didn’t notice that as Jiang Ping passed by him, his right hand made a very subtle movement, slipping a stack of paper into Zhou Xiang’s pocket.

Jiang Ping’s movements were quick and hidden, even a seasoned thief wouldn’t have such skill. This was a technique he had honed in his previous life. Although he hadn’t practiced much in this life, it was more than enough to fool Zhou Xiang and the people around him.

Zhou Xiang didn’t realize that Jiang Ping had planted a time bomb on him. He just watched regretfully as Jiang Ping crossed the road and went to the opposite convenience store to make a call.

Jiang Ping dialed the pager service and whispered, “Please call 135702 for me in one hour. The message is ABBBABA. Thank you!”

With fewer and fewer customers, the pager service would definitely meet such a timed request. He hung up the phone, gave the convenience store owner, who was chatting with a neighbor outside, a yuan, and then slowly returned to Li Qian. No one heard the content of Jiang Ping’s call, so he didn’t have to worry about anyone tracing it back to him.

Not long after Jiang Ping returned to Li Qian, the school gate slowly opened, and it was finally time for the candidates to enter the examination room. Jiang Ping and Li Qian showed their admission cards to the teacher at the gate and then walked into the school one after the other.

Wang Fang watched this scene from behind and couldn’t help but spit, “High school students only know how to fall in love. Their college entrance exam results will definitely be poor!”

After cursing Jiang Ping and Li Qian, Wang Fang’s gaze fell on Zhou Xiang, and she immediately cheered for her son loudly, “Xiao Xiang, do your best! Don’t be like those two bad students. Show them by getting into a key university!”

Encouraged by his mother, Zhou Xiang walked into the examination site with full confidence. As one of the top ten students in No. 2 High School, he was very confident in his grades. He was determined to get into a national key university to show those who had once mocked him! Of course, if Jiang Ping and Li Qian both failed and couldn’t even get into a junior college, it would be even more perfect.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xiang’s gaze involuntarily fell on Jiang Ping in front of him, and he thought viciously, “Last time, this guy was lucky and only got a cut on his arm! After the college entrance exam, I have to find a way to give him a good beating! The Four Musketeers are useless, I need to find someone more capable!”

Zhou Xiang walked into the examination room with his evil thoughts, completely unaware that he was about to have his own bad luck.
