Chapter 1185: The Rumors in School
Although there was no need for Wen Xinya to go to school for class nowadays, Teacher Ji still often called her on the phone.
Wen Xinya went to Teacher Ji’s office to get the materials. These materials were the learning content that Teacher Ji arranged for her. It meant to help her consolidate the knowledge she had already learned and also improve her weaker areas.
After getting the materials, Wen Xinya and Ye Feiyu went to the milk tea shop in school.
When she first saw her, Ye Feiyu could not help but say sourly, “You became a proud student of Teacher Ji Shihan, and your style has also improved. Now, when we want to see you, it is really not easy. When can I ever be like you, able to gain credits without even coming to school?”
In Ye Feiyu’s heart, she was truly happy that Wen Xinya could become a proud student of Ji Shihan. She could already imagine how bright Wen Xinya’s future would be. She had previously stated that Xinya would become a master of jewelry design. It now seemed that this day would certainly not be too far away.
Wen Xinya looked at her and said, “I don’t agree with what you’ve just said. If you want to see me, I’m just a phone call away. But you… you can’t even answer the phone for a few minutes. You still can say such things about me.”
Since she became Teacher Ji’s student, she had not been to school for several days, so she and Ye Feiyu had not seen each other for a while. The Department of History of Capital University was famous for its heavy schoolwork. She had called Ye Feiyu on the phone before. After just a few words, she would say, “Okay, I have to hang up. Let’s talk next time.”
Cough, Cough…
Ye Feiyu coughed twice, feeling embarrassed. “Yes, what do you want to drink? I will treat you today, the milk tea here is famous in Capital city.”
Wen Xinya said, “I won’t hold back, then.”
Wen Xinya asked for a cup of green milk tea. The brewing process originated from the Tang Dynasty. The green tea and milk combined together wonderfully. It was sweet and refreshing.
Ye Feiyu also ordered a cup. “Oh right, I haven’t congratulated you yet. You became a proud student of Ji Shihan.”
This was a happy occasion to be celebrated. However, Xinya kept things low-key and did not hold any celebration.
Wen Xinya laughed. “There is nothing to congratulate. I still have a long way to go.”
When Zhou Tianyu and the rest knew of this, they all asked her to invite friends and hold a celebration. However, she refused. She was lucky and honored to be a student of Teacher Ji. She also clearly realized that there was a long way for her to go, which made her even more sure of her goals.
How could she be so proud over such a small honor?
Ye Feiyu said, “That being said, you are one step closer to the goal of becoming a jewelry designer. This means that the jewelry I ordered from you will be made. Of course, I’m happy. I keep thinking of your promise to me, and I hope for you to become a great jewelry designer even in my dreams.”
Wen Xinya could not help but laugh. “How dare you. You congratulated me, but turns out you were just congratulating yourself.”
Ye Feiyu stuck out her tongue and suddenly said, “Xinya, you must have acted as a villain recently! In the past two days, I heard from your jewelry design department that someone is saying the reason you became Teacher Ji Shihan’s student was that your mother and she were close friends.”
The history department and jewelry design department were far apart. Since Xinya was a student of the jewelry design department, she paid more attention to the jewelry design department on a normal basis. As such, she quickly learned about these rumors.
Wen Xinya frowned. “Such rumors are only thought by Xia Ruya and Yan Menglu.”
Xia Ruya abandoned the superior education in Harbor City and ran to the Capital City. She knew that she would not stop, but she did not expect her to make her move so quickly.
Yan Menglu and Xia Ruya came to the Capital City to study together. There was no doubt that Xia Ruya had plotted this. Knowing that she wanted to study jewelry design and become a designer, Xia Ruya had to find a chess piece that could deal with her. One that could match her in every way, whether it was her family background or appearance.
Yan Menglu was this chess piece.
In fact, when she heard the rumors, Ye Feiyu knew that most of them were fake. “What are you going to do? If they continue this, it’s bad for both you and Teacher Ji.”
Although their words were not meant to ruin Teacher Ji, it could not be helped. Xia Ruya and Yan Menglu maliciously spread these rumors. The scariest thing about rumors was that the stories changed as they were passed along.
Originally, Teacher Ji had absolute power over her choice of students. However, if things were to continue like this and everybody believed that Teacher Ji was being biased because of their relationship…
Such rumors would greatly affect both their reputations.
Wen Xinya frowned. “There’s some truth in their words. The reason Teacher Ji accepted me was also because of my mother. I can’t refute such a thing. Just let them be! The wise man knows he knows nothing while the fool thinks he knows all. If they want to take this opportunity to deal with me, they will have more up their sleeves. No matter what they do, I will handle them as they come.”
It was not the first time she had to deal with rumors. Whether it was her previous life or this life, she had experienced them. Now, rumors alone would not even hurt her. After all, she did not even have to come to classes. Also, Teacher Ji held her reputation as a teacher, so she would not mind it that much too.
Xia Ruya and Yan Menglu naturally would realize that rumors would not affect her. They must have planned something else.
Ye Feiyu nodded. “Although that’s the case, you have to pay more attention to how the rumors go. I’m worried. If Teacher Ji were to be dissatisfied with you because of the rumors, that would be really bad.”
Every teacher cared about reputation. Teacher Ji was affected because she received Xinya as her student. It was hard to guarantee that some dissatisfaction did not arise in her heart. It would be bad for Xinya.
Wen Xinya smiled. “Don’t worry, Teacher Ji is not a petty person.”
The more she got along with Teacher Ji, the more she respected her. She was smart, magnificent, wise, and indifferent to fame and fortune. She was truly a respectable person.
Ye Feiyu laughed. “Since this is the case, I’m relieved!”
