Survival in the Class: I'm the Only Boy on the Bus

When Jiang Chen was a child, he asked Yan Xiaonuo what her birthday was.

Yan Xiaonuo lowered her head and said she didn't know, and the orphanage had no record of it.

Jiang Chen immediately slammed his hand on the table, making a decision like a little adult:

"Then let's consider the day we met as your birthday."

Yan Xiaonuo happily nodded in agreement.

From then on, every year on this day, Jiang Chen would prepare a gift for her, and Yan Xiaonuo would still smile so happily.

Because...that was the happiest day of her year...

Jiang Chen never regarded Yan Xiaonuo as a personal maid; he always saw her as his younger sister, a sister who always wanted to stay by her brother's side.

At this moment, Jiang Chen gently embraced Yan Xiaonuo, who was standing there stunned, and slowly stroked the back of her head with his right hand.

Yan Xiaonuo only doesn't have obsessive-compulsive disorder when her hair is messed up on her birthday.

She raised her hand and gently hugged Jiang Chen, tears welling up in her eyes.

Yan Xiaonuo recalled the day her master chose her, and the gifts her master gave her every year on this day.

Yan Xiaonuo hid all the gifts Jiang Chen gave her. She couldn't bear to eat or use them, and she would take them out to look at and touch them every day, even though some of the snacks had already gone bad.

The girls also quieted down, none of them wanting to disturb the two of them.

Lu Wanzhou was unusually not jealous, but rather filled with relief, and even her own eyes were a little red.

She knew about Yan Xiaonuo's background, so she took good care of Yan Xiaonuo and treated her like her own sister, just like Jiang Chen did.

My aunt and Teacher Wen both smiled like doting aunts.

Teacher Wen had a pleased smile on her face.

My aunt smiled approvingly.

Yan Xiaonuo lifted her head from Jiang Chen's arms, her cheeks flushed, and she spoke softly:

"Master... thank you for your birthday present, I love it!"

"I...I can also serve you, Master..."

After Yan Xiaonuo finished speaking, she lowered her head and shyly buried her face in front of Jiang Chen, her legs under the maid's skirt tightening slightly.

Jiang Chen didn't quite understand what Yan Xiaonuo was saying:

"Haven't you... always been serving me?"

Lu Wanzhou's initially touched expression immediately turned into a laugh of exasperation at Xiao Chen's idiot behavior...

Yan Xiaonuo's muffled voice came from in front of Jiang Chen:

"It's...it's the kind of service that can boost stats~..."

Jiang Chen suddenly realized, oh, so that's what it meant by "serving"...

Jiang Chen gently pinched Yan Xiaonuo's cheek:

"Okay, I'll let you know if I need anything. Let's awaken your talent first."

Teacher Wen, being quite tactful, walked over to Jiang Chen in her high heels and handed him the S-level talent awakening book.

She even winked at Jiang Chen and deliberately tiptoed, showing him what the laws of physics were like...

Jiang Chen certainly didn't miss this great opportunity to comprehend the powerful laws of physics.

After looking at it for a while, Jiang Chen took the talent awakening book from Teacher Wen and handed it directly to Yan Xiaonuo:

"Xiao Nuo, you should awaken your talent first."

Since the girls absolutely trust Jiang Chen, there's no need for him to ask questions or explain.

Yan Xiaonuo is Jiang Chen's younger sister, so what's wrong with him spoiling her a little?!

Um--? !

Who's in favor and who's opposed?!

Yan Xiaonuo continued to accept all that her master gave her without hesitation.

After nodding to her master, she sat back in her seat, closed her eyes, and used the S-rank talent awakening book directly.

Tang Yan, the little koi, knew it was time for her to make her dazzling debut.

So she jumped in front of Jiang Chen, raised her hat with her right hand, raised her left hand and left foot, tilted her body slightly, and made a playful and cute sound:

"Ta-da! It's time for my great Fucarus to make his appearance!"

Tang Yan, the little koi, handed Jiang Chen a small card that emitted a red glow.

This is what she just got from an S-class special item chest.

Vehicle Upgrade Card (S-Rank)

Jiang Chen gently pinched Tang Yan's koi-like cheek, then took the small card she handed him and scanned it with the full map:

Vehicle Upgrade Card (S-Rank)

[Effect: Directly upgrades the vehicle by 1 level.]

That was it.

Simple and straightforward, yet very valuable!

Jiang Chen shared the information with all the girls on the bus.

The girls were pleasantly surprised:

"Holy crap? A direct level up?! If I saved this for later, it would save me a ton of survival coins!"

"It now takes 7290 Survivor Coins to upgrade to level 7, and over 20,000 to level 8... The later you use this card, the more profitable it is."

"Tang Yan, the little koi fish, is like a cow taking a sauna—steaming her cunt! She actually managed to pull out these kinds of props?"...

Tang Yan, the little koi, rested her hands behind her head with a smug look on her face, a slight smile playing on her lips, and waved her fair little hands modestly:

"It's just so-so, third in the world."

"Sisters, please stop praising me, or my stats will inflate."

Bai Nuonuo was hugging the teddy bear and nodded seriously:

"Nuonuo thinks Tang Yan is already very arrogant."

The carriage was filled with laughter.

Jiang Chen handed the red card to Wen Ruyan, who then put it away.

The later you use this item that can directly upgrade a large bus by one level, the better.

In case a situation like rescuing Wang Wushuang arises again where you're rushing around, the extra speed and number of modules gained from leveling up can be a lifesaver.

Jiang Chen casually pulled out his Nokia phone and glanced at the time:

It's 9:30 p.m.

Hazard sent him two messages, and Jiang Chen planned to reply slowly after taking a shower and lying in bed.

Unfortunately, there's no Douyin (TikTok) to browse here, so I can't see any pretty girls. I guess I'll just have to shamelessly chat with these beauties...

Jiang Chen walked toward the pile of fruit in plastic bags.

Strawberries, cherry tomatoes, and grapes were arranged neatly by Wang Wushuang and Yun Qianqian, their red and green hues contrasting beautifully, still glistening with moisture, looking incredibly sweet and juicy...

Wang Wushuang rolled up the cuffs of her large black hoodie to her wrists, holding a strawberry in her hand. It was a size larger than the other strawberries and was a bright red.

When she saw Jiang Chen approaching, she timidly handed him the large strawberry she was holding.

"Chen...Brother Chen, have some of this...it's very sweet..."

As Wang Wushuang spoke, his voice grew softer, and he lowered his head.

Jiang Chen's attention was entirely focused on Wang Wushuang's worn-out hoodie and shoes.

The hoodie is okay, except for some holes and it's a bit big, but it's still wearable.

Wang Wushuang's men's sneakers had holes worn out at the toes and half of the sole was torn, making a clattering sound when he walked.

Wang Wushuang realized this herself and, fearing embarrassment, walked very carefully.

Jiang Chen smiled and gently pushed the strawberry that Wang Wushuang offered back:

"Wushuang, you're thinner, you eat."

Wang Wushuang awkwardly curled her toes that were sticking out of the shoe hole, and she softly said "Oh," her eyes showing some disappointment.

Jiang Chen didn't notice the disappointment in her eyes; he was wondering what shoe size Wang Wushuang wore.

Jiang Chen squatted down, picked up Wang Wushuang's toes that revealed their fair and rounded tips, and said calmly:

"Take off your shoes..."

Wang Wushuang was completely dumbfounded, and her face instantly flushed red:

"ah...?"

"Chen...Brother Chen, now?"

"I...I haven't showered yet, so I might smell a bit..."
