nThe two of them talked as they walked. Although their voices were not loud, the people nearby could hear them clearly.
n
nThey walked over and dispersed.
n
nThe few people behind them who heard the words frowned.
n
n“Is this Qin Yiyi crazy?”
n
nWith her average results in the previous exam, how could she compare to the top student in their grade?
n
n“I think so too.”
n
n“She actually said that she did better than the top student in the exam? This is really…”
n
nA few of the girls huddled their heads together and muttered. There was even someone who sneered.
n
n“Why doesn’t she look at her own character? She actually has the nerve to say that she can get first place in the exam?”
n
n
n
n“Sigh, who cares about her? When the results come out, she will know how incompetent she is.”
n
nA group of people in the class were eagerly waiting for Qin Yiyi’s casual remark.
n
nThey were waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
n
nQin Yiyi didn’t care about these things. She was taking Lu Jinwan out to eat in a restaurant.
n
nShe chose a private restaurant. It wasn’t a high-end place, but it was still better than the restaurants nearby.
n
nEven so, Lu Jinwan was still shocked when she saw the menu handed over by the other party.
n
n“Yiyi, why don’t we eat somewhere else?”
n
nShe originally wanted to go to the cafeteria, but Yiyi insisted on eating out, saying that the food in the cafeteria was difficult to swallow.
n
nShe thought that Qin Yiyi just wanted to find a restaurant to change her taste, but unexpectedly, she chose the most expensive one at that.
n
nIt wasn’t that she couldn’t afford this meal. But looking at the dishes and quantity served, it would probably cost hundreds of yuan.
n
nHer monthly allowance was limited…
n
nForget it, forget it. Yiyi must be in a bad mood. She wouldn’t risk her life to accompany her.
n
nAt most, she would eat congee and pickled vegetables every day for the next ten days!
n
n“Why aren’t you eating?”
n
nQin Yiyi lowered her head and finished a bowl of dumplings in front of her. When she looked up, she saw Lu Jinwan looking at her with a complicated expression.
n
nThat gaze…
n
nHow could she say it? She wanted to laugh!
n
nSubconsciously, she also really laughed. She waved at Lu Jinwan, motioning for her to look over.
n
nLu Jinwan leaned forward and blinked.
n
n“What’s wrong?”
n
nThen, in the next moment, Qin Yiyi reached out and rubbed her head vigorously.
n
nHer short hair was rubbed like a chicken nest.
n
nLu Jinwan, “…Yiyi!”
n
n“Let’s eat. If there’s not enough, what else do you want to order?”
n
nQin Yiyi calmly withdrew her hand and continued to lower her head to fight with the food in front of her. However, she did not forget to sincerely advise the person opposite her.
n
n“Girls think so much and worry so much about getting old so quickly.”
n
nThe corner of Lu Jinwan’s mouth twitched. She did not know whether to laugh or cry as she picked up a piece and put it in her mouth.
n
n“I’m only a teenager, but you told me that I’m getting old fast.”
n
n“A friendly reminder.”
n
n“I think you want to end our friendship!”
n
nLu Jinwan rolled her eyes at her, but she also began to eat non-stop.
n
nIt was so delicious!
n
nAfter school, Qin Yiyi threw her school bag onto her shoulder and slowly walked out of the classroom.
n
nHer posture was elegant and ostentatious!
n
nThis made a few girls who were neutral and didn’t involve themselves in gossip look at her with starry eyes.
n
n“Ah, ah, ah, Qin Yiyi is so impressive!”
n
n“Didn’t you see the way she swung her school bag just now? It was so cool.”
n
n“And the other day, I saw her help a junior block a soccer ball. Her movements were also very cool and neat…”
n
n“Hey, do you guys feel that this Qin Yiyi is a little different from the old Qin Yiyi?”
n
n“I have that feeling.”
n
nQin Yiyi turned a deaf ear to these murmurs.
n
nQin Jiatong, who was walking behind her, tightened her grip on the strap of her schoolbag.
n
nFinally, she took a deep breath and jogged a few steps to catch up.
n
n“Sister, why don’t you come home with me?”
n
nShe followed behind Qin Yiyi and looked at her with eager eyes. Her tone was cautious and expectant.
n
n“Mom said that Dad will be very happy when he sees you after coming home from a business trip today…”
n
nQin Yiyi didn’t want to pay attention to her at first.
n
nBut when she just heard Qin Jiatong’s little white-flower-like tone and the words that came out of her mouth, she stopped in her tracks and looked back.
n
nShe glanced at her with a faint smile. “Are you sure that Mom and Dad will be very happy to see me and not angry and can’t wait for me to disappear?”
n
nQin Yiyi’s gaze was very unfocused, full of indifference.
n
nSuch a gaze made Qin Jiatong even angrier. However, there were still many classmates around them, so she could only hold herself back.
n
n“Sister, what are you saying? Why would Mom and Dad be angry? We are family, aren’t we?”
n
n“If that’s the case, then I’ll go back with you.”
n
nQin Yiyi’s quick answer made Qin Jiatong’s heart skip a beat.
n
nShe actually agreed to go home with her?
n
nHowever, there was nothing to worry about. Mom and Dad were on her side from the beginning to the end!
n
nAt the school gate.
n
nQin Jiatong called out to Qin Yiyi, who was walking in another direction with a bag in one hand.
n
n“Sister, the car is over here.”
n
nQin Yiyi didn’t turn around. “I’ll go back myself.” She couldn’t be bothered to sit in the same car with Qin Jiatong!
n
nIt wasn’t that she didn’t dare or anything.
n
nThe main reason was that she didn’t want to sit face-to-face with such a hypocritical person whose entire body, including her hair, looked fake.
n
nShe wanted to throw a tantrum!
n
nMoreover, this person was her life-and-death enemy in her previous life. This person had been targeting her all her life.
n
nShe only took a few steps when her footsteps suddenly stopped.
n
nThen, she raised her eyebrows and walked towards the slender figure not far away as if there was no one else around.
n
n“Why are you here?”
n
n“I’m free today. I came to pick you up after school.”
n
nShang Jingheng glanced at her and reached out to take her school bag. His extraordinary good looks and height of a little over 1.8 meters made him look dazzling in the crowd. Even if he just stood leaning against the car, he had the ability to gather all the people in the world and the essence of the world towards his body!
n
nHis phoenix-like eyes were slightly raised, his nose bridge was high, and his thin lips were sexy.
n
nIt was not an exaggeration to say that he was a jade tree with unparalleled good looks!
n
nBut at this moment, such a good-looking man only bent over to Qin Yiyi and helped her open the car door and carry her bag…
n
n
n
nThere were many jealous people at the school gate, and once again, the crowd was in an uproar.
n
n“Who is that person? He’s so good-looking!”
n
n“Is he a celebrity?”
n
nAmid the floating discussions, Qin Jiatong’s brows were tightly knitted together. After a sigh, she said softly, “Uncle Liu, go back and find out who that man is and what relationship he has with Sister. I can’t bear to watch Sister take the wrong path in front of my own eyes.”
n
n“Okay, I’ll do it when I go back.”
n
nThe driver nodded and then praised, “Second Miss, you treat Eldest Miss so well.”
n
n“She’s my sister. If I don’t treat her well, who will?”
n
nQin Jiatong’s s eyes were ice-cold at this moment.
n
nSecond Miss? She didn’t want to be the Second Miss. She wanted to be the only Miss of the Qin family!
