Marriage as a Game

Chapter 21 You are quite good at fighting, and you thought you would not suffer any loss.

Zhongli handed a red USB flash drive to Shang Jianghan, and seeing that the other party was not in a hurry to leave, he began to complain and act coquettishly.

"Brother Jiang Han, what should I do if I don't want to take the exam? Can you think of a solution?"

"I can't help it!"

As Shang Jianghan curled his lips to refuse, his dark eyes passed over Zhongli's head, pierced through the air flow, and fell on a certain figure.

The thin potato chips between the slender white fingers, against the backdrop of the skin, look brighter in light yellow.

"My brother said that I didn't do well in the exam, so the New Year's trip to Europe was cancelled. My deskmate said that if I didn't do well in the exam this time, I can try again next time. Do you think my brother will agree?"

Zhongli is still playing the weak card, trying to overcome Shang Jianghan's barrier first, so as to save the country in a roundabout way.

The girl's face was slightly tilted, and only the slightly curved corners of her mouth could be seen. She opened her thin lips slightly and gently put the potato chip into the gap between her teeth along the line of her lower lip.

"Will you do well in the exam next time?" Shang Jianghan asked nonchalantly, curling his lips. "Since someone has guaranteed that you will do well in the next exam, go find her!"

**
The weather remained sunny on Thursday and Friday, with a slight cool breeze of early autumn.

Shen Chaoxi's examination room was arranged in the second to last row of Class 2.

Everything went smoothly during the period, the only imperfect thing was that she and Shen Yueyue met face to face.

It was a week after school started that Shen Chaoxi found out that Shen Yueyue was also in No. 1 Middle School. He learned that she was assigned to Class 6 and became Tan Linlin's little follower.

The Tan family also does real estate business in Shangjing, so how could Shen Daguang give up the opportunity to get close to them?

The two seats are in the front and back rows.

Shen Chaoxi is in front and Shen Yueyue is behind.

When the two met, they were like strangers and ignored each other.

There was no requirement to wear school uniform during the exam, so Shen Chaoxi wore a white shirt and narrow-leg black denim cropped trousers.

The clothes she always wore were torn in the fight, so Zheng Juanjuan dragged her to a nearby shopping mall and bought her two more sets.

She had an exam today, so Zheng Juanjuan asked her to change into new clothes early in the morning, saying that new clothes would make her feel better and help her perform better in the exam.

The exam was arranged according to the regular college entrance examination time and lasted for two days in total.

Around five o'clock on Friday afternoon, after the last comprehensive science exam, Shen Chaoxi handed in his paper early and stood up.

When she walked out of her seat, she heard a low sneer behind her, but she didn't pay much attention to it.

"Shen Chaoxi!"

After leaving Class 2, someone called her from behind.

Shang Jianghan's voice was very recognizable, so she naturally recognized it, but she was a little surprised to hear him calling her by her full name.

Shen Chaoxi turned around and saw that the man in front of him was as handsome and casual as ever. He was wearing light-colored casual clothes, which made his physique look tall and perfect.

Shang Jianghan was assigned to be the examination room inspector today. He was wearing a red armband with the words "Inspection Team" engraved on it on his left arm, which looked incompatible with his identity.

Shen Chaoxi wanted to laugh, and in fact she curved her lips, revealing a row of small white teeth.

"Still laughing at me?"

Shang Jianghan had the urge to knock her smooth forehead, but he suppressed it. His voice was calm but lively.

Shen Chaoxi put away the corners of his mouth, and said seriously and humbly: "Teacher Shang still has work to do, please go and do it, I won't disturb you anymore."

This is an important examination area, and there are big signs saying "No noise allowed"

Shen Chaoxi turned around to leave when his collar was suddenly pulled.

Just gently let go of the kind.

She looked back and raised her eyes slightly, her dark eyes filled with doubt.

"You don't even know your clothes are damaged? How stupid!"

Shang Jianghan had a faint smile in his eyes as he spoke, twinkling like stars in the night sky. He took out his cell phone, slid to the photo page and took a picture of Shen Chaoxi's back.

The phone was handed to him. The camera had a very high resolution, and the photo was very clear. There were several black pen scratches on the white cotton fabric, one of which was curved into a semicircle.

If I say this is an unconscious behavior, I'm afraid no one will believe it.

There were still ten minutes left before the end of the exam. Shen Chaoxi glanced at a certain location in the examination room through the glass of the back door.

She said nothing, her face expressionless, and walked to the other side of the corridor.

Bai Jinyuan asked everyone to gather in class after the exam because she had something to say.

Shen Chaoxi lowered her eyes slightly as if she was thinking about something. After a moment, she noticed something strange. She turned her head slightly and saw Shang Jianghan's profile close to her.

The cheeks are well-proportioned and the jawline is flawless.

"Just forget it?"

Shang Jianghan suddenly said this out of nowhere.

Shen Chaoxi naturally knew what he meant.

Shen Chaoxi brought the black pencil case in his hand and put it in front of him without looking at the other person.

"What else can I do? There's no evidence, and I have to wash my clothes when I get home anyway."

Shen Chaoxi replied indifferently, seemingly well-behaved and nonchalant, but Shang Jianghan heard disdain in her tone.

He smiled faintly, put his left hand into his trouser pocket, and twirled the black cell phone in his right hand between his fingers.

Shen Chaoxi stood on his left side, and the two walked side by side. Although the distance was not close, it was not far either. The red armband rubbed against the white cotton sleeves from time to time, and then they separated.

The setting sun is slanting down, and the white sunlight is like a halo of colorful pigments, spreading outside the window.

The cicadas' chirping sound was intermittent, and it was already the last gasp of a spent force.

The two walked for a while, tacitly keeping silent.

As I passed by several classes, I would occasionally see eyes looking at me through the glass window.

When they were almost at Class Nine, Shang Jianghan's deep voice came out again.

"You're quite good at fighting, and I thought you wouldn't suffer any loss."

There was no question in this sentence and it was said lightly.

Shen Chaoxi had already stood at the classroom door. She found a place to stop and half leaned against the windowsill wall. She raised her eyes and looked directly at Shang Jianghan.

"Then when will it be divided? If I don't fight back when someone hits me, then I'm not a fool! I know who scratched the clothes, but I have no evidence. I know it will be a waste of time to argue with her, so I don't bother to pay attention to her! But if she dares to scratch me in person, just try it!"

The girl's eyes were gentle and calm, and her words didn't even have any intonation, but to Shang Jianghan it sounded very convincing.

He really believed that if anyone dared to bully her openly, he would be the one who would suffer in the end!

"What are your plans for the weekend?"

The chat continues.

Shang Jianghan stood half a meter away from Shen Chaoxi, his left palm resting on the wall and his fingers tapping rhythmically. He put half of his body weight on his left wrist, his posture lazy and leisurely.

His eyes seemed to be looking out the window, and would always inadvertently fall on the beautiful, fair face with lowered eyebrows in front of him.

After the monthly exam there is a weekend break.

Shen Chaoxi hadn't thought about this question before, but now he began to think about it seriously.

"I'll keep my grandma company, and maybe borrow a few books from the city library. I've been in Beijing for a few months and rarely go out, so I only know a few places. After the college entrance exam, I'll make an appointment with Fang Yuan and Xiao Yu to go shopping."

Hearing that the girl had already made plans, Shang Jianghan didn't say anything. He was a native of Shangjing and had lived here for more than 20 years. She didn't ask him anything, which made Shang Jianghan feel a little disappointed.

At this time, the bell for handing in the papers rang, and there was a sound of knocking on the table from Class 9, urging them to hand in the test papers.

The science test this time was a bit difficult. Usually Shen Chaoxi would have more than half an hour left after finishing, but this time he only finished ten minutes early.

　My company gave me two hundred dollars. How should I spend it?
