I Alone Am Immortal: My Rebirth and Leisurely Cultivation

Chapter 149 I'm being targeted by the school

Most of the school's affairs are still managed by this vice principal.

Jiang Yingzhu knew that her uncle was mainly in charge of the school's macro strategy and external affairs.

She had complained to her uncle about the cafeteria problem, but the situation remained the same, indicating that the problem did not lie with her uncle.

If it's not a problem with the top leader, then someone below is sabotaging things.

Jiang Yingzhu didn't care who was causing trouble; she went directly to the person in charge.

The cafeteria offers special meals for faculty and staff, and the prices are even cheaper than for students.

Many teachers, including the principal, eat in the cafeteria, which is why she was able to find the vice principal.

The moment she sat down with the plate in her hand, the vice principal looked up.

Four students rushed toward him; anyone with a normal sense would have noticed.

"Oh, it's Xiao Jiang. What's up?"

"Principal Ma, I'd like to treat you to some broad beans."

Jiang Yingzhu said with a smile, picked up the chopsticks that the vice principal had placed on the edge of the plate, picked up the big fly from the plate, and placed it on the white rice in the vice principal's bowl that had barely been touched.

The fly stands in stark contrast to the white rice, with even the texture of its leg hairs clearly visible.

Suddenly, a wave of nausea shot from my stomach straight to my brain.

He gagged violently. "Jiang, what are you doing? This joke isn't funny."

"I got this at the cafeteria window. Vice Principal Ma, the lady there said it's broad beans."

"These broad beans are so unique, I've never seen them before. Of course, they're dedicated to Principal Ma, who has worked so hard to cultivate us. Don't you like them?"

Principal Ma's face darkened, his anger evident, but his anger was not directed at Jiang Yingzhu.

"You're kidding, how could these be broad beans? Who said that? Jiang, take me to find him. The cafeteria's hygiene standards need to be addressed!"

Jiang Yingzhu nodded and led Principal Ma to the old lady at the previous window.

"It was her. She said the fly was from a broad bean."

There were hardly any people getting food at this point, so the older woman sat on a stool playing on her phone.

This canteen was contracted by her nephew, who hired her to work there and coast along.

I come to cook every morning, and I can leave work after noon. There are people in charge of the evening.

Anyway, life is good, and these students are easy to fool; it's simpler than feeding pigs.

However, she was in a bad mood because people kept finding fault with her today and she didn't sell many things.

Hearing the voices of the students who had come to cause trouble before, the old woman immediately scolded them without even looking up.

"If I say it's broad beans, then it's broad beans. What do you know, you're just a student? You're lazy and don't know anything about grains. You should be grateful you have anything to eat!"

"You're still looking for help? What, you want to smash up the cafeteria? These young people nowadays can't take any hardship. Let me tell you, even if you go to the Emperor himself, it won't help!"

Principal Ma's face hardened; few people dared to be so arrogant in front of him. He immediately spoke in a deep voice:

"Can you say that again?"

"I'll say it a million times and it'll still be the same, you."

The woman looked up and then met Principal Ma's gaze directly.

She recognized the principal and immediately gave a forced smile.
"Haha, Principal Ma, I was just joking with them."

"Are you kidding me?" Principal Ma pointed at the plate in Jiang Yingzhu's hand. "Then you eat this plate of rice."

The woman's face immediately fell, and she stammered, trying to change the subject.

If this had happened during a famine in the past, she wouldn't have even blinked at ten flies, let alone one.

However, things are different now than before; she's living a very comfortable life now.

Forget about flies, if someone puts too much salt in a restaurant, she'll nag them for ages.

They won't stop until they come up with a discount or special offer!

Principal Ma snorted heavily, "Call your supervisor over here."

Jiang Yingzhu didn't bother to watch what happened next.

They hadn't had lunch yet, so they went out to eat.

As for the cafeteria, she will never eat there again.

When Yu Qingya and Mei Mengqian saw the old lady being scolded, they immediately felt a sense of satisfaction.

Li Yan followed behind the three of them, ordering food outside the school and casually joining in on Jiang Yingzhu and the others' conversation.

Secretly, he was using his divine sense to keep an eye on the activities in the cafeteria.

He watched as Principal Ma summoned the person in charge of the cafeteria contract and two heads of the school's logistics department.

The people in this logistics department have connections with the canteen contractor.

It's a common sight, a scene that people take for granted.

Immediately afterwards, Principal Ma began to criticize and denounce the two in front of everyone, ordering them to rectify their behavior.

'They didn't change it immediately; looks like they received a bribe.'

Li Yan used his divine sense to carefully scan the contractor. The man did not have a kind face and had scars on his body.

His past record is hardly clean.

He left a spiritual imprint as a means of monitoring, to prevent any acts of retaliation.

Li Yan didn't care whether Principal Ma had any dealings with the contractor, and had no intention of settling accounts with him.

He is not a saint who upholds justice; in fact, he is too lazy to meddle in other people's business.

If Jiang Yingzhu hadn't been involved and even had some conflict with the contractor, he wouldn't have bothered with it at all.

There is too much inequality in the world; how could he possibly manage it all?

If everyone is controlled, then his very existence is itself a form of inequality.

As for the cafeteria food not being clean?

That must be the cafeteria's fault. Just put up a money-dispelling charm or a misfortune-dispelling charm for the cafeteria.

Li Yan's fingertips twitched slightly, and two invisible strands of spiritual energy condensed into talismans, which suddenly flew out and quietly imprinted on the cafeteria's license.

To avoid trouble, it's best to render the contractor incapable of retaliation.

He was too kind; he went to such lengths to prevent the other party from risking their life.

"Hey! Hey! Li Yan, are you even listening?"

Li Yan snapped out of his reverie and nodded firmly, "I listened."

"Wasn't I very handsome just now?" Jiang Yingzhu said, tilting her chin up.

"So cool!" "Hehe~" Jiang Yingzhu smiled smugly, then put on a serious face.

"You really weren't listening to me! We were just talking about grades."

"Oh, my grades are too good for me, I'm not interested in this kind of topic," Li Yan said casually, taking a sip of his soda.

"Damn it!" Jiang Yingzhu clenched her fists, surprisingly not breaking the law to refute him. She was really fooled by his act.

She had just learned some of Li Yan's grades from Mei Mengqian.

"Li Yan, how do you study? You always get such good grades!" Yu Qingya asked, wanting to learn from him.

"I am the protagonist."

"."

Yu Qingya was speechless.

This is the first time I've ever seen someone so brazenly narcissistic.

Jiang Yingzhu curled her lip, saying, "All you do is show off. You study until who knows how late every night."

This silly girl thought Li Yan was studying by staying up late to cultivate.

Mei Mengqian pursed her lips and did not participate in the topic.

Jiang Yingzhu, however, took the topic seriously and began to analyze it in a very earnest manner.

"You're not the main character. First, you're not an orphan. Second, you didn't become a useless person halfway through. Third, you're not pretty enough."

After completing the argument, Jiang Yingzhu patted her chest.

"I am the main character. First of all, I am practically an orphan."

"?!" Li Yan looked up, speechless. Jiang Yingzhu, you are really filial.

"Secondly, I used to have excellent grades, but now I've fallen from grace and am considered useless."

Okay, okay, this is the first time I've ever seen someone insult themselves like this.

"Third, I look just like the main character!"

On the last point, Li Yan could not refute it.

"And you, my friend, you are nothing more than a tool for the protagonist to conquer and attract the admiration of those around him."

"Strategy guide?" Li Yan stroked his chin and looked at Jiang Yingzhu.

"Then you're going to be the dominant one, right? Protagonist, go pay the bill first."

"I'll buy it!" Jiang Yingzhu said without any hesitation.

"Come to the classroom later and give me a massage."

"!?"

"I don't want to. Didn't you want to win me over? I even offered to do it myself."

Jiang Yingzhu snorted, "The protagonist only does what he likes."

Then, with a flick of his hair, he pulled Mei Mengqian away.

Yu Qingya blinked and quickly followed.

······
The answer sheets for the three humanities subjects were distributed in the afternoon.

To get an excellent score in the humanities requires a bit of thinking, but to get a perfect score, it's not something that can be achieved by simply using your brain.

Therefore, Li Yan's score was not perfect; his average score was 90.

This score is also the highest in the class.

In the evening, the Chinese language self-study session began.

Li Ping walked into the classroom and patted the desk.

"Let me tell you something."

The classroom fell silent, and everyone looked at him.

"Something happened in the cafeteria at noon, but it's okay if you don't know about it."

"However, you need to know the school's latest regulations. The new rule is that from now on, whatever you eat in the cafeteria, you cannot put it in any teacher's bowl!"

After Li Ping finished speaking, the students started discussing it.

"That's it? I thought I was going to have to change seats."

"I was terrified, I thought the rankings were out."

In the first row, Yu Qingya looked back at Mei Mengqian with a subtle expression, but swallowed her words.

Mei Mengqian, on the other hand, remained calm, as if she had expected this all along.

Yu Qingya looked at Li Yan again, but Li Yan's reaction was even calmer, as if he hadn't heard anything.

"Aren't you surprised?"

"I'm used to it." Mei Mengqian glanced at her, paused, and said, "Qingya, haven't you noticed yet?"

"What did you find?"

"Zhu Zhu is the principal."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

“She likes to set school rules for us.” Mei Mengqian covered her mouth and chuckled.

Yu Qingya was taken aback. After thinking for a moment, she recalled the two previous incidents involving school rules.

On one occasion, Jiang Yingzhu pulled out a baton and chased after a thug during a riot control drill.

On one occasion, Jiang Yingzhu was studying during evening self-study when Xiao Yaya tied her hands and feet inside a bracelet.

And this time too.

It feels like it happens every month for three months, just like my period.

It has become a set of rules!
Yu Qingya realized what was happening, and then felt a sense of wonder, while Lin Yufan and Yu Bing, who were standing nearby, were puzzled.

Yu Qingya explained what happened in the cafeteria that day to the two of them.

"Ah, it seems that's really the case." Yu Bing's eyes lit up. "How amazing!"

After evening self-study, on his way home by bike, Li Yan said to Jiang Yingzhu:
"Now, you are the school's rule-maker."

"What kind of school rules are these? They're so weird."

Mei Mengqian chuckled to herself, while Li Yan explained it to her.

"Huh? That's it? The name's nice, but I don't like it. I'm being targeted by the school, okay? And you're all laughing!"
