Chapter 259: Jiang Xi's Struggle
The sounds of screaming and cries of agony echoed along the tree-lined path.
Students from afar looked over in astonishment, not knowing what was happening here.
A bunch of men screaming as if facing their doom.
Even in broad daylight, the sound was quite chilling.
Actually, the situation wasn't very complicated.
After Baiyu blocked the road, this group of musclemen from the boxing club got fired up again and tried to take on Baiyu, only to be instantly knocked down over ten of them. The rest, sensing the situation was unfavorable, tried to run away, but they were intercepted by an ice-cold beauty who appeared halfway.
Her methods were extremely ruthless.
So much so that these musclemen scrambled back to Baiyu's side, crawling and rolling.
"I'm not an unreasonable person; if you cooperate nicely, wouldn't it save a lot of trouble? We're all classmates, peace brings prosperity."
Baiyu took out a student card.
Then took over the card reader from Jiang Xi and placed it in front of everyone.
Seeing everyone's tearful and speechless look, Baiyu waved his hand: "What are you standing there for? Line up, one by one, no cutting! Be considerate and pay the fee."
Jiang Xi crossed her arms over her chest, like an evil supervisor.
Under her watchful eye, no one dared to defy.
Soon enough.
Everyone had finished paying.
Baiyu, pleased, put away the student card, comforted everyone for a bit, and walked away with Jiang Xi.
"Aaaahhh, Baiyu, it's a matter of life and death between us!"
"Too arrogant, this bastard is too arrogant! I'm going to report this to the dean!!"
"Idiot, aren't you embarrassing us enough already? If you report it to the dean, Baiyu not only won't be punished, we might even get scolded by the dean!"
"Right, this is our own matter. If we can't overcome this, we're unworthy as Martial Artists. We must make this guy pay back with interest!!"
Once Baiyu left, the group finally dared to express their inner anger.
At this moment.
Baiyu unknowingly did a good deed again.
By setting a life goal for a group of confused second-year seniors, he made them truly realize the harshness of the Martial Arts School.
...
"Are you sure there won't be any problem with this?"
Along the way, Jiang Xi was a bit uneasy.
Baiyu shook his head and said: "Martial Arts School isn't a charity, didn't they say it encourages conflicts? Besides, the fact that this group dared to ambush me so openly proves that in terms of GPA, the school side isn't overly harsh.
Otherwise, it would lack fairness.
Moreover.
Didn't I leave them half?
Fifty GPA points are enough for them to eat Spirit Rice for a month, they won't starve.
Also.
Little Jiang, I'm seriously warning you, we're just borrowing, you understand? As a model student, how can we do such an unjust thing by forcibly seizing?"
"When I become a Grandmaster one day, I will definitely return their GPA points!"
Looking at Baiyu's shameless demeanor, Jiang Xi held her forehead and sighed: "Whatever you say goes."
On this trip, she gained two hundred GPA points, although on the surface she appeared calm.
In her heart.
She was already bursting with joy.
Composure.
Jiang Xi, you must stay composed and maintain your ice-cold persona!
Little Jiang reminded herself in her heart.
Luckily, the "Zombie" Extraordinary Ability inherently made her body temperature quite different from normal, so her disguise was basically unnoticeable.
"In a few days, we'll have a mission to undertake. Lately, I've been intensely practicing Spirit Techniques. If you have any trouble, you can call directly, I might not see the messages."
Jiang Xi thought for a moment, then said.
"Are you addicted to robbing? If you really want to do it with me, next month I'll take you on some big heists; this kind of petty gain isn't even enough to clean your teeth."
Baiyu mysteriously said.
Jiang Xi kept a straight face, arms crossed over her chest, showing an astonishing curve.
Her fair thighs glowed in the morning light, like the finest mutton-fat jade.
"Right now, it's just the two of us here, no need to pretend to be composed."
Baiyu reminded.
Jiang Xi finally couldn't hold it in and rolled her eyes, "Next time there's a good deal like this, remember to call me first; I'm good with dirty and tiring work. Recently, my GPA is really not enough."
The consumption of GPA indeed exceeded Jiang Xi's expectations.
Not to mention anything else.
Just her daily meals cost over ten points.
An average student can get by with one bowl of Spirit Rice per meal, but her appetite was astonishing, craving meat every meal.
And that's just the cost of meals.
Counting everything else, she was only halfway through this month, and her GPA points were almost used up.
"Why don't I lend you some first?" Baiyu suggested.
"Would you really be so kind-hearted?"
Jiang Xi was a bit guarded.
However, Baiyu was indeed loaded with money.
Just now, he "borrowed" two thousand GPA points, and with the entrance exam rewards, his GPA points probably exceeded the three thousand mark.
He was practically a super magnate.
"Because we're friends."
Baiyu generously took out his student card and transferred five hundred GPA points to Jiang Xi: "Remember to pay it back…"
Watching his carefree figure walking away.
Jiang Xi clutched the student card in her hand, feeling a moment of emotion, realizing that at critical moments, a reliable man is indeed dependable…
"Something's not right."
"Baiyu is always full of schemes, he must be sure that I can't pay back these five hundred GPA points."
"Then later…"
Jiang Xi recalled.
It seemed like Baiyu never suffered a loss, and as for beauty temptations, even with Ning Qian, a little beauty flitting around him every day, it didn't seem to have any effect.
Moreover, she wasn't the kind to sell out her charms.
The other side knew her very well, he definitely had an agenda, as for sincerely helping her… that possibility was very slim.
There must be some unspeakable secret.
For a moment.
Jiang Xi held the student card, plunged into an inner struggle.
...
Noon.
School cafeteria.
Ning Qian sat across from Jiang Xi with a plate of deep-sea squid rice.
This was a daily ordeal Jiang Xi had to endure.
Such a meal cost twenty GPA points, although Ning Qian always offered to treat, Jiang Xi naturally couldn't live by sponging off her best friend every day.
Devil.
Ning Qian and Baiyu are both devils.
Jiang Xi couldn't control her hand from reaching for her student card.
Inside were seven hundred GPA points, available for use anytime.
"No, I can't surrender to Baiyu for mere food cravings!"
"Hold back, you must hold back!"
Moments later.
Jiang Xi sat with a plate of deep-sea squid rice, plus version, and began wolfing it down under Ning Qian's horrified gaze.
Of course.
With her appetite, it was really hard to stop once she started.
Moreover, the school cafeteria's Exotic Beast ingredients were all nourishing for Blood Qi.
After half an hour.
Jiang Xi walked out of the cafeteria with a face like winter frost.
Ning Qian followed behind her, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
That meal.
Jiang Xi ended up eating five plates of rice, spending 100 GPA points in total.
She was also puzzled as to why Jiang Xi, who usually scrimped on food, suddenly splurged, only to find out it was because Baiyu had lent her GPA points.
"No worries, Brother Baiyu is really kind-hearted, don't worry. Next week we can take on tasks, and the GPA points we earn will be plenty."
Ning Qian consoled.
