Chapter 16
Not Interested
“Well, if there’s nothing else, you can go back and do your revision.”
Lin Hao did not further ask any questions. He had no interest in Chu Ning’s family matters. He only wanted the stability of the class as a whole.
After Chu Ning unhurriedly returned to the class, Ye Ting’s curiosity was piqued again.
She wanted to know what the class teacher, Lin Hao, had said to her when he called her over. Could it have something to do with her?
Thinking of the upcoming monthly exam, a hint of determination flashed in Ye Ting’s eyes. This time, she must win!
There were no classes in the afternoon; they were all changed to self-study periods. Time flew by quickly. After Chu Ning roughly flipped through all the textbooks and practice questions for each subject, the bell signalling the end of the class rang.
Chu Ning packed her bag and hung it loosely on her shoulders. Just as she was about to leave the classroom, she was stopped.
Chu Ning looked at Wang Li and Ye Ting. She lowered her head slightly to look at them and said calmly, “What’s the matter?”
She was more than 1.7 meters tall, while Wang Li and Ye Ting were only 1.6 meters tall.
Ye Ting gazed at Chu Ning with an aggrieved look, looking rather pitiful and saying, “Why can’t we be friends? Although our statuses have changed, we can still be sisters in future. If you come across any difficulties, you can let me know. It’s okay. I understand. With your current level of consumption, it’s not a small expenditure for the Chu family. There’s no need for us to go against each other…”
Chu Ning didn’t have any reaction after hearing that. How could she not know what Ye Ting was thinking?
“Alright, just say what you want to say. There’s no need to beat around the bush. Also, I’m not going against you. If you don’t want to sign the bet, you can return it to me now.”
Chu Ning said indifferently.
“Hey, why don’t you take a look at your status? Our Xiaoting is so nice to you. She took the initiative to approach you, yet you’re so unappreciative. Let’s go, Xiaoting. We don’t have to pay attention to her for now. When the results are out, let her leave this place as soon as possible and return to where she belongs!”
As Ye Ting’s loyal lackey, Wang Li stepped forward and said.
“As you wish. I still have something on, so I won’t be accompanying you to play your games.”
After Chu Ning said that, she turned her body to the side and walked away from the two of them.
Ye Ting, who had felt wronged by Chu Ning a second ago, immediately regained her composure after she turned her back on Chu Ning.
Of course, she didn’t want to get along with Chu Ning. Everything was just to pave the way for Chu Ning to get out of this place.
She suddenly turned her head and said, “Chu Ning, you aren’t angry that I snatched your identity and status? You clearly…”
“No,” Chu Ning replied calmly.
Her eyes were clear and candid.
“To be honest, I don’t care about your current status nor lust after your possessions. You just need to live a good life as the daughter of a rich family.”
She, Chu Ning, wouldn’t lose sight of the big picture for some cheap gains. Her seven brothers had not started to exert their strength yet!
Right now, she just wanted to live a normal life.
Even if Ye Ting was able to withstand many hardships, after hearing these words, she still inexplicably felt that she was inferior.
She was the real lady, but now she felt as thought she was the one who was being unreasonable…
How could it be…
How could it be like this…
“Good luck with the monthly exam. I wish you a smooth victory over me so that I can leave this place.”
After saying that, Chu Ning left without looking back.
“Chu Ning, I’m warning you not to be too arrogant! I…” Wang Li shouted from behind Chu Ning, but Chu Ning gradually walked away.
Jingyuan High School did not have evening self-study sessions. It could be said that it was the most relaxed high school in M city, and it was one of the best.
As soon as she walked to the bus stop, she saw the male protagonist from the book. He was the one whom Chu Ning was obsessed with in her previous life, and was willing to give up her everything for — Yan Shen.
Under the sunset, he was wearing a white shirt and was very clean-looking. There was no emotion in his clear and narrow eyes. He was like a cold-blooded killer who had walked out of a painting. He did not kill people, but their hearts.
No wonder Chu Ning in her previous life was so obsessed with him that she couldn’t see straight. This heaven-defying beauty had even made the current Chu Ning’s heart flutter!
Yan Shen saw Chu Ning as well. A trace of imperceptible disgust flashed in his emotionless eyes, but he said nothing. He saw that Chu Ning was also walking towards the bus stop, so he walked towards the side of the bus stop, the meaning of this was self-evident.
