Lu Ning glanced at her, then followed her gaze and turned to look behind.
Coincidentally, the bell rang, and the people in the back dispersed to their seats. Lu Ning and Lin Yi, who had just looked up, exchanged glances.
During the break in the second period, Lin Yi came over and sat at the desk in front of Lu Ning and Lin Ci.
The two of them glanced up at him at the same time, then lowered their heads to continue doing their own things, completely ignoring him.
Lin Yi looked at the two of them. Being rather thick-skinned, he simply leaned closer towards them.
“Why so heartless? Sister and ex-fiancée.”
Lu Ning and Lin Ci raised their heads and scowled at him simultaneously, then turned to look at each other.
“Sister?”
“Fiancée?
Lu Ning clarified, “Ex-fiancée.”
Lin Ci corrected her. “Cousin.”
Lin Yi: Why are you guys in such a hurry to clear up your relationship with
Lin Ci turned to look at him. “Just being rigorous.”
Lu Ning also glared at him. “Don’t bring that up in the future. We no longer have anything to do with each other.”
Lin Yi gave a cheeky smile. “We don’t now, but we used to. We can still be friends.”
Lu Ning looked at him. “Lin Yi, if I remember correctly, you used to avoid me. But now that we have nothing to do with each other, you want to be friends with me? Do you really want to be friends with me, or… do you have some other motive?
It seemed that she was right on the mark, but he still said without batting an eyelid, “What motive can I have?”
Lu Ning looked at him and smiled. Then, she looked towards the classroom door.
Lin Yi followed her gaze and looked over. Ltl Yue’an was standing at the door of the classroom, glowering at them with an unpleasant expression.
Her fingers tightened around the box in her hand.
Lin Yi turned to look at Lu Ning. Lu Nings gaze made him feel like he had nowhere to hide.
He got up and walked towards the door.
Lin Ci turned towards Lu Ning. “What do you mean, ex-fiancée? Is he the guy you’re supposed to marry?
Lu Ning looked at her and corrected her again. “It’s in the past. We have nothing to do with each other now.”
Lin Ci nodded. “Yes, yes. That’s right. Fortunately, you’re not related anymore.” Lu Ning could not help but laugh when she saw the disdain on her face.
“Why didn’t you tell me you were his sister?”
“We’re cousins! We haven’t seen each other in ages. Why would I bring him up?
Seeing that she was unwilling to say more, Lu Ning did not inquire further.
Lin Ci looked at her. “My grandfather is his grandfather’s younger brother. My family moved out to live on our own a Jong time ago, so we don’t interact much anymore. Plus, he was overseas, so there’s no point in mentioning him.”
Lu Ning nodded. Lin Ci had never mentioned this, and she had never asked; all she knew was that Lin Ci lived with her grandfather, and that her parents had passed away. She was afraid to make her remember something sad, so she did not ask about her family situation. Hence, she had no idea that she had such a relationship with Lin Yi.
Lin Ci looked at Lin Yi, who was talking to Lù Yue’an at the classroom door. “Won’t these two get into a tizzy when theyre together?” As she spoke, she could not hold back her laughter.
Lu Ning glanced at her, amused by what she said.
Lu Ning would only have to work tomorrow; today, she had a leisurely rest. At noon, she ate Sixth Brothers food in the infirmary, and discussed some things among the few of them.
The weather had turned cold, and nightfall arrived earlier.
Lu Ning felt a little restless during class. She went to the school’s rooftop alone and sat there to watch the sky darken.
She rummaged through her pockets, and took a cigarette out.
Looking at the lights that kept lighting up in the distance, there was a glint of uncertainty in her eyes..
