Jiang Che gently grasped the ankle, searching for the dislocated spot.

In his past life, after Jiang Che succeeded in his business ventures, he often exercised and, out of interest, learned free combat for several years. He had quite a talent for it and achieved some success. In his spare time, he frequently participated in friendly matches. Although they were just for fun, injuries were inevitable, and over time, he gained some experience in this area.

With Jiang Che holding her small foot, Su Rongyin's face turned crimson.

Her earlier avoidance was due to the pain, but also because it was the first time her foot had been touched by a man.

Yet, inexplicably, when Jiang Che looked at her, she only explained the pain as the reason.

She was afraid.

Afraid that if she said too much, it would be unclear and make Jiang Che think she disliked him...

But looking at Jiang Che's serious profile, Su Rongyin suddenly realized.

Jiang Che seemed to have really changed.

It had nothing to do with becoming more handsome or uglier on the outside.

It was a change in feeling.

The current feeling she had for Jiang Che was something she had never experienced before...

But what was this feeling?

Su Rongyin could sense Jiang Che's change, but she couldn't see her own heart clearly.

Crack!

Just as her thoughts were becoming increasingly chaotic.

A crisp sound came from her ankle.

"Ah!"

Su Rongyin couldn't help but cry out in pain, and the tears that had just stopped started to fall again: "Jiang Che, you hurt me!"

Jiang Che glanced at her, put down her small foot, and got up to leave.

"Jiang Che..."

Su Rongyin realized her subconscious attitude towards Jiang Che was not good, panicked, and quickly grabbed Jiang Che's clothes: "I didn't mean to, it just hurt too much..."

"The bone is back in place, Gao Yun is behind, she's coming over, I have to go home, my mom really called me for dinner." Jiang Che gently pulled her hand away.

"Jiang Che! Why are you like this..." Su Rongyin's lips trembled incessantly: "I rejected your confession, that's my right!"

"Why are you treating me like this?"

"Can't we still be friends?"

Jiang Che got on his electric bike and smiled: "Rejecting me is your right, whether I want to be friends with you is my right too."

Su Rongyin was stunned.

Jiang Che continued: "Besides... did I say we're not friends? We're still friends!"

Su Rongyin looked up with big eyes, feeling wronged: "If we're still friends, why are you treating me like this? You weren't like this before!"

"The way it was before, wasn't being friends!"

Jiang Che grinned, twisted the throttle, and sped away.

He didn't want to explain too much to Su Rongyin.

There was only one month left.

After the College Entrance Examination, they would go their separate ways, and their lives would no longer intersect.

"Rongyin, what's wrong, why are you crying like this? Was that Jiang Che who just left? Did he bully you?"

Gao Yun's voice came from behind, stopping beside Su Rongyin...

After dinner at home and a shower, Jiang Che lay on his bed, not wanting to sleep but unsure of what to do. He opened the app store on his cracked phone, intending to download a short video app to pass the time. But after searching, he suddenly sat up.

2014.

The emergence and explosive popularity of short videos happened at the end of this year, early 2015.

The pioneer short video app "Kankan" was still called "Kankan GIF" at the time, only capable of browsing GIFs, with a small user base, and was in a half-dead state.

Jiang Che remembered clearly.

In the second half of the year, Kankan GIF, unable to sustain itself, would be sold to a company in the capital, then begin its transformation, renamed as Kuaikan Short Video. In just half a year, it would become explosively popular and usher in the era of short videos.

If the news was correct.

The selling price was around 5.5 million!

The acquisition time was at the end of July.

Just after the World Cup ended!

Jiang Che clenched his fists excitedly.

The timing and opportunity were perfect.

He must seize this chance and ascend this path to greatness!

However.

How should he earn the initial capital?

The next day, Su Rongyin didn't come to school, probably because of her sprained ankle. Jiang Che didn't mind, his fingers skillfully twirling the pen, as dazzling as a butterfly flitting among flowers.

From afar, Li Yuan kept glancing at him, her mind filled with the thought that "Jiang Che's every move has become so charming," her eyes sparkling, showing no sign of being upset about yesterday's events.

"The exam results are out."

Gu Dafei walked into the classroom, glanced around, and said: "This time, someone made significant progress, and I want to commend them. Jiang Che! 574 points! That's 30 points higher than the last exam!"

The classmates were in an uproar.

Jiang Che was rejected, not only changed his hairstyle and became more handsome, but also improved his studies?

That's not the standard outcome!

"Jiang Che, keep it up. As long as you maintain this score, getting into a decent 211 university is entirely possible!"

Gu Dafei said to Jiang Che.

Jiang Che replied from below: "Don't worry, Old Gu... Teacher Gu! My scores will only get higher, and by the College Entrance Examination, I might even bring back a First Place!"

Gu Dafei didn't expect the usually silent Jiang Che to respond, and laughed: "Then the teacher is really looking forward to it! If you can bring back a First Place, the teacher will treat you to a meal, and you can choose the place!"

Below, Qin Xiaolong sneered: "First Place? If you can get First Place, I'll castrate myself on the spot!"

Qin Xiaolong's deskmate heard his words, widened his eyes in surprise, and turned to look at him...

"Alright, everyone look at your papers. This class, we'll focus on the questions with the highest error rates..."

After reading the results and distributing the papers, Gu Dafei began the lesson.

Chen Yunsong nudged Jiang Che for a while: "Che, what's up with you? Your confession failed, but your grades didn't drop, instead, they went up by 30 points?"

"You seem to really want me to do poorly?" Jiang Che raised an eyebrow at him.

"No, I'm just curious how you did it..." Chen Yunsong said.

"Getting one more question right in each subject adds up to 30 points." Jiang Che replied.

"I mean how you managed not to be affected at all..." Chen Yunsong muttered.

"Did you leave your voice at home?" Jiang Che didn't hear a word.

"Nothing, I said you're amazing!" Chen Yunsong gave a strategic thumbs up.

"There's nothing amazing about it, if you join me in sprinting for a few days, you can do it too." Jiang Che genuinely wanted to help Chen Yunsong at this point.

Sensing that his friend wasn't joking and was serious about helping him study, Chen Yunsong inexplicably felt a sense of foreboding and involuntarily shrank his neck...
