Rebirth: Slice-of-life Cultivation Chapter 30 – Chapter 30 Chapter 30 The Master Key

Chapter 30: Chapter 30: The Master Key Chapter 30: Chapter 30: The Master Key Jiang Ning and Xue Yuantong entered the classroom together, and although they always came in and left together at night, people might think they were dating, but Xue Yuantong didn't care.

Even if suspected, she didn't mind; she planned to use her grades to shatter all the gossip and rumors during the monthly test.

Xue Yuantong had already decided that after the monthly test, when seats in the class were reassigned, she would sit next to Jiang Ning and tutor him properly.

Thinking about this, she subconsciously glanced at Jiang Ning's seat where he was sitting by the window corner, quietly looking out at the campus.

Next to him, Ma Shicheng was in a strange position, holding his phone, his body twisting and turning from time to time.

“What are you doing?” Jiang Ning asked him.

Ma Shicheng's face lit up with excitement. “Our class actually has wifi, and I've cracked it open with ‘Universal Key.' I'm looking for the signal! But now there's only one bar.”

As he spoke, he swayed his body, then pressed the phone against the wall, and suddenly the wifi signal on the mobile showed two bars with a speed of 200Kb/s. Ma Shicheng was thrilled and hurriedly opened ‘Wandoujia' to download games.

The game he downloaded was ‘Asphalt 7' Android cracked version.

“Holy shit, there's wifi?” Hu Jun was passing by, glanced at Ma Shicheng's phone, saw the wifi icon, and quickly took out his oppo phone to search.

“Ma Shicheng, what's the password?” he asked.

Seeing someone competing with him for the network, Ma Shicheng was a bit unhappy but couldn't refuse, so he said:
“Just crack the password with the Universal Key.”

In 2013, Universal Key's installation volume was terrifying, and most students had it on their phones to crack wifi passwords on the go.

What they didn't know was that Universal Key's ability to crack wifi passwords was quite weak, but it had a very interesting feature; whenever you install this software and connect to any wifi, it would silently upload the password to the cloud.

If you had wifi at home and the Universal Key software on your phone, others could easily connect to your home wifi using Universal Key.

You thought you'd take advantage of someone else's wifi, unaware that your own wifi password could be leaked too. And with the software's terrifying installation volume, a considerable number of wifi networks could be cracked.

After Hu Jun connected to the wifi, he immediately clicked on Youku to play videos. While he was loading, Ma Shicheng's network speed instantly plummeted from 200kb to 50kb.

Ma Shicheng was annoyed but didn't say anything. How could he blame anyone if his phone couldn't compete with others for the network?

He just left his seat and started wandering around the classroom looking for wifi signals.

After Hu Jun connected to the wifi and found the speed acceptable, he called his friends to join him. Soon, not just the boys, but some girls also took out their phones to search for wifi.

Jiang Ning watched amusedly; indeed, these days were interesting, as people would do all sorts of things for a wifi connection.

The girl sitting in front of Geng Lu was bored to death. Seeing everyone else playing with their phones, she felt an itch.

She turned around and, seeing that Jiang Ning was unmoved, asked curiously:
“Jiang Ning, why aren't you connecting to the wifi?”

“I don't feel like I need to download anything.” Jiang Ning glanced at her. The girl wasn't the exceptionally skinny type like Shen Qing'e, with a slightly chubby face and wearing a blue T-shirt, and from Jiang Ning's angle, things looked pretty hefty.

“Could I borrow your phone to log into QQ real quick? I'll return it right away, thanks!” Geng Lu said awkwardly.

Jiang Ning took out his phone and handed it over. Geng Lu was a bit taken aback when she saw the model of Jiang Ning's phone, an iPhone 5, which she recognized.

She didn't expect Jiang Ning to be wealthy, but it made sense; he had been wearing a full Adidas outfit at the start of the school year, probably from a well-off family.

What surprised her was that Jiang Ning's iPhone didn't even have a case, nor did it seem to have a screen protector. Wasn't he afraid it would break?

She felt a bit anxious inside, worried that a careless drop would be disastrous.

She waved her hands and said, “Forget it, forget it.”

Hearing her say that, Jiang Ning seemed a bit puzzled but didn't ask further.

After this incident, Geng Lu's impression of Jiang Ning had improved quite a bit. He seemed just, generous, and quite handsome—far better than the self-loving Ma Shicheng—by many folds.

“Jiang Ning, tonight Shan Qingrong said there would be elections for class president and study committee member. Do you want to try?”

Geng Lu asked, as girls tend to care more about these things.

Jiang Ning said, “Forget it, I'm not really suitable.”

“How could that be? If you were to run, I think definitely many people would vote for you.”

Geng Lu was telling the truth. After that day, some girls had been discussing Jiang Ning in private, mentioning that he was handsome, though a bit short. However, Geng Lu noticed today that Jiang Ning wasn't short at all and was nearly as tall as the 175 cm Ma Shicheng.

“I think Huang Zhongfei would be more suitable,” Jiang Ning said, recalling that in his past life, Huang Zhongfei had been the class president and was well-liked by classmates.

Geng Lu remained silent. Although Jiang Ning was nice, if compared to the extremely handsome Huang Zhongfei, there was indeed a gap. If one were to divvy up ten scoops of handsomeness in Class 8, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Huang Zhongfei alone commandeered nine scoops.

As they continued chatting like this, even though Jiang Ning wasn't much of a talker, facing a cute girl with a good figure didn't upset him, and he occasionally offered some unique insights.

Thus, chatting with Jiang Ning was particularly comfortable for Geng Lu. With every topic she brought up, it seemed Jiang Ning understood it all and never interrupted her. As a result, Geng Lu grew bolder and spoke more naturally, dominating most of the conversation.

Many girls are like this: if they feel you are good to talk to, they will go on and on about all sorts of trivial matters—like a teacher they hated in elementary school, or some little thing they liked, telling you all about it, one thing after another, expressing their emotions without giving you a chance to interject.

When Shen Qing'e arrived in class, she instinctively looked towards Jiang Ning's seat, only to see such a scene.

Her face, which initially wore a slight smile, abruptly turned cold.

That afternoon, she had messaged Jiang Ning on QQ and he hadn't replied, which upset her quite a bit.

Now she finally understood why he was ignoring her—he had found a new girl.

Great, just great!

Having only been in Yuzhou for a few days, you're already hooking up with a new woman. I never thought you were so wild before.

She gave the two a cold glance, particularly pausing a few seconds on Geng Lu's face.

Shen Qing'e knew all the good-looking girls in class well, and she remembered Geng Lu, who was quite pretty but not as much as she was.

She couldn't understand why Jiang Ning had moved on so quickly. Since coming to Yuzhou, it seemed she could no longer control Jiang Ning.

This sense of losing control made her feel particularly uncomfortable, even defeated.

‘Fine, Jiang Ning, since you are heartless, don't blame me for being unkind!'
Shen Qing'e was truly angry this time and swore she would never bother with Jiang Ning again!

It wasn't until the bell for evening self-study rang that Geng Lu, still reluctant to end the conversation, turned around only to realize she and Jiang Ning had chatted so much despite having only met a few days ago!

But chatting with Jiang Ning was too comfortable. He was neat and clean, with a pleasant fragrance about him that was refreshing.

‘Being friends with him must be quite a nice experience,' Geng Lu mused dreamily.
