"Jiang Nian? How did he move up? Could it be cheating?"
So typical, hitting hard with the first sentence.
"It's not cheating, don't just open your mouth like that," Le Zhi slammed his chopsticks on the table, frowned, and glared at those people with an unpleasant expression.
He had fallen out with them once before, and today he was only here for Zhou Yuting's sake.
There's no need to save face, it's useless anyway.
"Who knows?"
"You don't know, and you're babbling. Did your mom tell you in a dream?" Le Zhi retaliated without holding back.
He used to seem like a fool, but that doesn't mean he lacked edge. To be friends with Jiang Nian, you had to have a bit of a temper underneath.
He wasn't afraid of them flipping the table, let them fight. In a small town like this, fights would end up the same way, with elders intervening.
A classic start, kids being reckless, mutual apologies would settle it.
