I'm a senior in high school, and the Emperor Development System has arrived!

Chapter 121 I happen to know some medical skills, so why don't you let me take a look at the wound?
Wednesday, August 27, 2025.

The last day of summer make-up classes at No. 2 Middle School.

The long summer tutoring period is coming to an end.

Not to mention the students, even the teachers were somewhat distracted.

Shen Enxi was clearly one of those who stayed up late last night, whether chatting on the phone or watching dramas, it's unclear.

He looks a bit listless now.

As usual, Chen Zhou checked the location and entered the classroom by scanning his face.

As soon as he entered, he felt an extremely powerful presence watching him.

This feeling is like the moment a hero steps into a dragon's lair, and the vertical pupils light up.

Extremely powerful deterrent!
Facing Jiang Yutong's gaze, Chen Zhou leisurely strolled to her seat, lightly tapped his fingertips on the edge of the table twice, and greeted her casually:

"Good morning, class monitor!"

He emphasized the words "class monitor," and a mischievous smile played on his lips.

Jiang Yutong shook her head, clenched her hands into fists on the table, her knuckles turning slightly white, and stared at him as she said:
"Not very good."

Chen Zhou gave an exaggerated "Eh!", leaned forward, placed his hands on the edge of the table, and asked:

"What's wrong?"

Jiang Yutong suddenly hugged her arms tightly and snorted:
"Nowhere is good."

Chen Zhou scratched his head and guessed:
"Could it be that my period has started?"

As he spoke, he quickly straightened his back, clenched his right fist and placed it against his chest, adopting a righteous and awe-inspiring posture, and added:

"If it's your period, I happen to know some medical skills, so let me take a look at the wound."

A blush crept across Jiang Yutong's face, as if half her face had been tinged with the glow of the setting sun. She helplessly raised her hand to smooth the stray hairs from her forehead.
"You're such a good-for-nothing kid. Your aunt and uncle are able to open a new account for you, right?"

Chen Zhou smiled faintly and said softly:

"If it's not my period, then what could it be? Is it because of a large white peach?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yutong's expression froze for a moment, but then relaxed:
"As expected, you noticed... But I'm curious, when did you find out?"

A hint of confusion flashed across her face, and her brows furrowed slightly:

"Logically speaking, I shouldn't have given anything away."

Chen Zhou shook his head, put his hands in his school uniform pockets, and chuckled:
"No flaws? It should be full of flaws."

Jiang Yutong leaned forward, resting her elbow on the table and propping her chin up with curiosity:
"Where exactly did the flaw appear?"

Chen Zhou smiled mysteriously, slowly raised his right hand, extended two fingers, and uttered two words:
"Interpretation".

Jiang Yutong understood, lightly tapped her temple with her fingertip, and asked:

"It seems the traces were somewhat deliberate?"

Chen Zhou nodded and snapped his fingers with his left hand:
"Cheng Zhuo is me, Jiang Yunong is you, and I won't say more about who Bai Qian is."

However, Jiang Yutong had some questions. She leaned back slightly, and the back of the chair made a slight creaking sound.
"Can you be so sure based on just this?"

Chen Zhou smiled and shook his head, then tapped the tip of his nose with his right index finger:
"It was uncertain at first, but until just now..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yutong's pupils contracted slightly, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and a hint of regret appeared on her face:
"You bastard, you tricked me!"

Chen Zhou shrugged and muttered to himself:
"It's just a matter of reciprocity; someone has been keeping it from me for a very, very long time."

Jiang Yutong turned her head to the side, the tips of her ears turning slightly red, a hint of embarrassment on her face:
"Then I definitely can't tell."

Because they were in a classroom, the two concealed all important information, making it sound like an encrypted conversation to onlookers.

Chen Zhou put his hands behind his back, took a couple of steps like the old scholar, and hummed:

"I just never expected that the famous Squad Leader Jiang would actually..."

Jiang Yutong quickly stood up, raised her hand to cover his mouth, her palm slightly sweaty.
"Shut up!"

In an instant, her attitude softened, she gently poked his arm with her finger, and whispered:

"Please, I'm begging you, this is something that only heaven, earth, you, and I can know..."

Chen Zhou pried her hands away, stretched out his own, rubbed his fingers together, and revealed a set of bright white teeth:

"Then I should at least get some hush money, right?"

A hint of worry appeared between Jiang Yutong's brows as she sighed:
"Even now, it's still up to you to name your price as long as I have it."

Chen Zhou nodded, leaned forward, and lowered his voice:
"I've been waiting for you to say that, Class Monitor! I'll contact you when I've thought it through!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked to the back seat, his footsteps making a light, tinkling sound on the floor.

Jiang Yutong, on the other hand, lay on the table in distress, her cheek pressed against the cold surface, regretting that she had asked Chen Zhou to play this acting game just for novelty.

Now that’s good, it’s out of control.

Alas, her illustrious reputation in Class 8, I hope it won't be ruined by Chen Zhou.

Return to your seat.

Chen Zhou sat down, and Bai Qianqian, who was sitting at the table in front of him, turned around and gave him a smile as sweet as a lily.

She asked haltingly:

"Um...did you...did you buy the props?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhou slapped his forehead. He had been so engrossed in watching the movie last night that he had completely forgotten about buying cosplay costumes.

Faced with Bai Qianqian's question, he could only apologize:
"Sorry, sorry, I forgot for a moment. I'll check when I get home from school. The delivery should be ready by Saturday."

Bai Qianqian tilted her head slightly and smiled faintly:
"Good... good!"

As the morning reading bell rang, all the students in Class 8 of Senior Three stood up and began their enthusiastic morning reading.

The so-called "passionate morning reading" is also a consequence of the Hengshui model, requiring all students to stand up and read the text aloud.

Chen Zhou didn't know if this would work, but he couldn't remember anything after reading it.

Instead, he often took advantage of the noise to show off his singing skills in front of Li Bin and Zhou Xinglun.

Seeing Shen Enxi sitting on the podium, propping her cheek up with her hand, looking half asleep, the three felt reassured.

This is the perfect opportunity to slack off.

Li Bin picked up his English book as cover and began by saying:
"Hey guys, what are your plans for the holiday?"

We have a three-day holiday starting on the afternoon of the 27th and reporting back on the 31st.

A three-day holiday is extremely precious for high school students.

Back when there were no two-day weekends, National Day was only a three-day holiday.

Therefore, Li Bin was eager to take advantage of the three-day holiday.

Chen Zhou counted on his fingers.

I'll accompany Jiangxia to Jingdezhen tomorrow and the day after, and then accompany Bai Qianqian the day after that.

Goodness, it's fully booked in three days.

But this plan definitely can't be told to Li Bin, otherwise he'll mutate into a zombie again and start performing "Ahhhhh!" there.

So Chen Zhou chose to remain silent.

Stephen Chow stroked his chin and asked Li Bin with a smile:

"What is the phenomenon called when seawater backflow pollutes groundwater, increases salinity, and causes saline-alkali land to form due to evaporation of the saline groundwater, thus affecting agricultural production and daily life?"

Upon hearing this, Li Bin scratched his head and shook his head, saying:

"What is this? Are you talking to me in gibberish? And when I asked you about the holiday schedule, you started lecturing me on geography?"

Chen Zhou, suppressing a laugh and feeling helpless, prompted Li Bin:

This phenomenon is called backflow.

Li Bin silently repeated it twice, then burst into laughter like a pig:

"It's good to have water diverted; I'll have water diverted during my vacation too."

As he spoke, he looked at Chen Zhou and asked:

"And what about your pork knuckle?"

Chen Zhou scratched his head and looked up at the sky:

"Me? I might be planning to go on a trip."

Upon hearing this, Bai Qianqian, who sat at the table in front of her, assumed they were talking about going to the comic convention and blushed slightly.

Li Bin quickly pressed for an answer:
"Where to?"

Chen Zhou smiled mysteriously:

"secret."

"Tch! Fine, don't tell me then. You shameless bastard."

Li Bin didn't press further, but turned to Zhou Xinglun and asked:

"Xinglun, hurry up and get some study materials. I'm almost out of study materials." "Study materials? What use are they to you, Zhou Xinglun?"

Chen Zhou waved his hand dismissively and snorted:
"I, Chen Zhou, have access to 3000 study materials on my cloud drive. If you're unsure what to do, ask a friend. If your friend doesn't have it, ask me, Chen Zhou!"

"The memory should not be so small, the videos should not be so few, the materials are not for one person to learn, but for all people to learn, the great path is right before our eyes!"

Li Bin and Zhou Xinglun looked at each other in bewilderment.

Li Bin scratched his head, speechless.

"Hey bro, why are you getting all worked up?"

Stephen Chow pointed and gestured:
"If Mr. Qi finds out about what you just said, you're probably in big trouble."

Chen Zhou smiled but remained silent. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the gaze on the podium and immediately fell silent.

Then he gestured to the two of them.

Only after the regulators' attention had left did the three regain their energy.

Chen Zhou sighed:

"Bin, Lun, I recently discovered something."

"what?"

Chen Zhou looked up at the sky and said helplessly:
"I always thought I liked Ultraman Tiga, but now I realize I like D+."

Li Bin typed a question mark, clearly not grasping the deeper meaning.

Stephen Chow pondered for a moment, then nodded repeatedly:

"Great idea, I'll copy it."

Li Bin was still completely confused:
"What's going on? Why are you saying you like Tiga and you don't? Do you like him or not?"

Chen Zhou was speechless, then laughed and scolded:

"You idiot, you're the one who's bound by others' ideas, aren't you? Take your time to figure it out, this Tiga is not that Tiga."

At this moment, He Lili was pretending to read a book while eavesdropping on Chen Zhou's conversation.

When I heard that he liked D+, I couldn't help but look down at myself.

She's a perfect D+!

A wave of emotion surged within her. Was Chen Zhou hinting at something to her?

He Lili mentally clenched her fist, thinking to herself:
"Go for it, Lily! You can do it!"

Seeing Li Bin's bewildered expression, Chen Zhou turned to Zhou Xinglun and issued a challenge:

"Len, tell me, is Father of Ultra more powerful or am I?"

Stephen Chow gave a thumbs up without hesitation:

"You're amazing! You're amazing!"

Chen Zhou smiled and handed over a book, saying:
"A message has arrived from the M78 Nebula, answer it quickly!"

Stephen Chow was stunned for a moment, then blurted out "Holy crap!"

"What the hell are you trying to pull this Japanese NTR storyline on me?"

Li Bin hadn't even figured out what Ultraman Tiga was like, and now there's Father of Ultra and Nebula M78. His brain has completely shut down.

Watering it won't help.

Li Bin bit his lip lightly, looking pitiful.

He clenched his fists and said:

"I hate it, I hate it so much! How could I, with absolutely no talent for cultivation, be assigned to the side of two freaks like you?"

Li Bin then wiped away his tears.

Stephen Chow reached out from behind the curtains, patted his shoulder, and sighed:

"The one who's abnormal isn't me, it's Elbow. Right now you're only at the Qi Refining stage, your vision is still narrow. When you reach the Foundation Establishment stage, seeing Elbow will be like a mayfly seeing the blue sky."

Chen Zhou wiped his sweat, checked his level 5 meme-making skill, and truthfully said:
"There's no need to exaggerate like that. If meme-making is a 10 out of 10, I'm at most a 5 out of 10."

Stephen Chow raised his hand:
"Then I'll take 2 points."

Li Bin stared wide-eyed:

"Then I'll only have 1 point?"

Stephen Chow glanced at him, pursed his lips, and finally spoke:
"Objectively speaking, it should be 0.5 points."

Li Bin pretended to roar to the sky:

"No, I'm not reconciled!"

Chen Zhou patted him on the shoulder and sighed:

"Bin, admit it, sometimes the difference in talent between people is greater than the difference between a person and a paramecium."

At this moment, Li Bin's heart was shattered into pieces.

……

Class 2 upstairs.

The atmosphere for morning reading in the top-performing class is much better than in the regular class; at least everyone is reading attentively.

However, there was an exception today.

Qin Xiao noticed her deskmate's absent-minded look, glanced at the homeroom teacher's movements at the front of the class, nudged her, and asked:

"Xia, what's wrong? You seem a little listless?"

Jiang Xia shook his head, slowly turned the book in his hand to another page, and asked softly:

"nothing……"

Qin Xiao shook her head:
"I know you too well. You say there's nothing there, but it's obvious there is something going on."

Jiang Xia forced a smile:
"No, but there's something I'd like to ask you."

Qin Xiao tilted her head:
"What's the matter?"

Jiang Xia noticed the homeroom teacher's gaze falling on him, and pretended to be reading, taking a moment to say:

"Let's talk about it after class."

After morning reading, Jiang Xia and Qin Xiao went to the corridor.

Qin Xiao pressed further:
"What's wrong, Xiaxia? Tell me what happened."

A hint of coldness flashed in Jiang Xia's eyes as she reached up and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.

"Xiaoxiao, do you think my personality is a bit too carefree?"

Qin Xiao laughed and said without hesitation:

"If you weren't so carefree and easygoing, would you still be Jiang Xia?"

Jiang Xia nodded, a hint of understanding flashing in his eyes:
"okay, I get it."

Since people don't like me this way, it's time to make a change.

As she spoke, she asked Qin Xiao:

Do you have any rubber bands?

Qin Xiao paused, a hint of concern flashing in her eyes, and quickly pulled out a few black rubber bands from her pocket:
"Here, here you go."

Jiang Xia took the small hair tie, walked slowly to the railing, looked at the morning light outside the window, took a deep breath, then opened the hair tie and tied up her short hair.

This was the first time Qin Xiao had seen Jiang Xia with her hair tied up.

Jiang Xia's original short hair was somewhat similar to a mushroom cut, which looked very energetic but lacked femininity.

Now, with her hair tied up, she suddenly has a refined look reminiscent of a campus goddess.

For a moment, Qin Xiao almost didn't recognize Jiang Xia anymore.

Jiang Xia raised her hand to press down the stray hairs on her forehead. When her fingertips brushed behind her ear, she touched a patch of bare skin and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

She blinked at the sunlight streaming through the railing, her eyelashes casting soft shadows beneath her eyes.
"Isn't this a little strange?"

Qin Xiao paused, then walked around to face her and examined her closely:

"I just suddenly feel... you look even more beautiful."

Jiang Xia smiled nonchalantly:

"Really? As long as it's not strange."

She doesn't really care about these things; she just wants to make some changes.

Make some...

The changes he saw.
