Chapter 20
More Handsome Than The School Hunk
“Hey! Shan Chen, I’m here!” Shan Yue had just finished lecturing Chen Min.
When she came out of the school building, she bumped into Shan Chen.
He did not expect that Shan Yue would still be waiting for him after being delayed for so long. Shan Chen’s heart warmed. He quickly turned around and wiped his eyes before turning around. He forced a smile and replied, “Sister, let’s go eat.”
Walking side by side with Shan Chen, Shan Yue asked curiously, “Why did you leave school so late? Did something delay you?”
She was delayed because Chen Min came looking for trouble. Could it be that someone was looking for trouble with Shan Chen?
Shan Chen was unwilling to transmit his negative emotions to Shan Yue because he knew that if he told her, it would only make her feel even more inferior.
He buried the unhappiness in his heart and shook his head. “I didn’t solve a few questions. I thought about it for a while.”
Sensing that her cheap brother was not in a good mood and did not want to tell her, Shan Yue did not ask further. Since Shan Chen was unwilling to tell her, she would go to Shan Chen’s class to check when she was free next time.
Hence, Shan Yue nodded understandingly and replied, “Alright, I’ll teach you when I get back tonight!”
“Okay,” Shan Chen agreed obediently.
Neither of the siblings told the other about the terrible things that had happened to them. Instead, they walked side by side in silence towards the canteen.
There’s probably not much food in the canteen at this time, right? Shan Yue muttered as she casually sized up Shan Chen.
As she looked at him, she suddenly felt that her brother was even more handsome than the school hunk, Yu Hao. His skin was so fair that it was transparent under the sun, his nose bridge was high, his eyes were deep, and his thin lips were handsome. This was the real school hunk!
The only flaw was that Shan Chen’s long bangs covered his eyebrows. Shan Family was relatively poor and did not have any extra money to go out for a haircut. Therefore, Shan Yue and Shan Chen’s hair were trimmed by themselves. Over the years, they had formed such thick ugly bangs.
Shan Chen kept thinking about how the boys had mocked Shan Yue’s intelligence. He was conflicted and finally couldn’t help but ask, “Sister, you have to take the exam properly next time. Don’t let those people look down on you.”
“Yes, no problem.” Shan Yue agreed immediately. She had even made a bet with Sun Ling. Sun Ling said that if she could get first place in the grade, she would use her head as a ball to kick!
At the thought of that comical scene, Shan Yue burst out laughing.
Seeing that Shan Yue still did not seem to take it to heart, Shan Chen said worriedly, “Sister, you’re about to take the college entrance examination. The college entrance examination is very important to children from families like ours! Will you do your best?”
Hearing the concern in Shan Chen’s words, Shan Yue straightened her expression and looked into Shan Chen’s worried eyes. She promised, “Don’t worry, I’ll do my best.”
To her, the college entrance examination was something that could be completed easily. Since there was a chance, why didn’t she do it?
With Shan Yue’s assurance, Shan Chen relaxed and a smile gradually appeared on his face.
When they arrived at the cafeteria, there were still a lot of people queuing at the various windows. The siblings split up. Shan Yue was thinking about her weight loss fitness plan, so she went to the vegetarian window, while Shan Chen went to the other side.
After getting a plate of vegetables and a small amount of rice, Shan Yue ignored the strange gazes of the others and calmly walked to the checkout counter to pay.
However, as she pulled out her meal card and placed it on the deductible machine, the machine let out a loud “Insufficient balance!”
This meal was only $4.60, but the Host’s meal card could not afford it? Shan Yue was a little surprised.
According to her memory, the Host’s meal card was charged every half a month with 50 yuan. She should still have some money left, right?
Suddenly, she remembered that before the Host fell into the water, her sister, Shan Xing, had borrowed it for a day.
Could Shan Xing have spent all the money in the Host’s meal card?
Just as Shan Yue was deep in thought, the canteen auntie tapped her spoon and urged, “Hurry up and settle the bill. If you don’t have money on your meal card, take out some cash to pay. Don’t dawdle!”
Shan Yue touched her body blankly and realized that the Host was so poor that she did not even have cash. This was awkward.
