The live broadcast of the eldest prince’s funeral has ended at this point.
At this time, it was already nine o'clock in the evening on Beichen Star in the imperial capital, but on Guiyuan Star, it was just the beginning of the day.
After the live broadcast of the funeral ended, the students in the school officially started their classes.
Even when Xia Chujian didn't miss classes before, she still had trouble keeping up with the progress.
I have missed classes for more than ten days now and basically have no idea what the teacher is talking about.
After a day of classes, she was exhausted, even more tired than the last time she fought a bloody battle with Feng Qianzhan in the Monster Forest.
Rubbing her shoulders, she began to pack up her desk and prepare to go home.
Her deskmate Zhu Yingying lived in the same building as her and was also waiting for her, planning to go home together.
Just then, a girl dressed very fashionably and wearing a snow-white beret with an exotic animal pattern on her head, accompanied by two followers, came to the door of their classroom. She waved at Zhu Yingying and said, "Yingying! Come quickly! I'll take you to see the world!"
Zhu Yingying looked up and saw that it was the class beauty from the advanced class next door, named Fantani.
This is a good friend that Zhu Yingying just met these days.
Zhu Yingying looked at Xia Chujian hesitantly, her hand nervously twisting the strap of her schoolbag, and murmured, "Chujian, I...I...I'm leaving first."
Xia Chujian looked up and said calmly, "Who is that? Which class is he from?"
Zhu Yingying answered honestly, "That's Fantani, the beauty from the advanced class next door. She...she knows a lot of high-class people and has taken me to their parties a few times."
Xia Chujian couldn't help but glance at Zhu Yingying.
From the designer coat she was wearing to the new leather shoes made of exotic animal skins on her feet, it was obvious that she was dressed up.
Xia Chujian asked doubtfully, "She knows some high-ranking people, what does it have to do with us?"
Zhu Yingying blushed and stammered, "Fentani said she wanted to introduce me to a boyfriend... a boyfriend with a high status and a good family background..."
"Is it such a good thing? She didn't keep it for herself, but introduced it to you?" Xia Chujian was even more confused.
Zhu Yingying hurriedly said, "Fentani also has a fiancé. I heard his surname is Fan, and he's a noble from Dafu County..."
"What's your last name?" Xia Chujian thought he had misheard and immediately became alert.
Zhu Yingying didn't notice the change in Xia Chujian's tone, and continued to say embarrassedly: "Fan, I heard that he is from the side branch of the Fan family. He is not a direct descendant, but he also has the surname Fan and lives in the Fan family's territory in Dafu County..."
Xia Chujian: “…”
"...If...if my mom asks, Chu Jian, can you tell her that I went to the library to study with my classmates..."
Zhu Yingying begged with a blushing face.
If Zhu Yingying hadn't said that Fantani's fiancé's surname was Fan, and that he was from the noble Fan family in Dafu County, Xia Chujian would have ignored this matter altogether.
But since the man's surname was Fan, Xia Chujian had to be more careful.
She packed up her things on the desk, put on her schoolbag, lowered her eyes and said, "It's getting dark early now. What if your mother asks me which library you went to? What should I say?"
Zhu Yingying thought for a moment and said, "The place that Fantani wants to take me to is a private club called 'Yu' in the east district of Mulan City, near the sea. I heard it's very close to the Third Library, right next door. Just say I'm going to the Third Library."
"If my mother wants to come look for me, please send me a message immediately and I will go to the Third Library and wait for her."
Xia Chujian thought, Yingying usually keeps a low profile, but she is quite brave. When she talks about lying, she has a lot of tricks up her sleeve.
She nodded calmly: "Well, if your mother asks me, I will say this. But if she doesn't ask, I won't say it."
"Of course." Zhu Yingying suddenly became happy.
She also put on her schoolbag, raised a pretty smile, and waved at Xia Chujian.
Xia Chujian couldn't help but ask, "...Yingying, you're only eighteen, why are you in such a hurry to find a boyfriend?"
The smile on Zhu Yingying's face froze in an instant.
She bit her lip and whispered after a while: "Chu Jian, I hate my home... I can't stay here for a day... My dad always beats my mom and me... My mom also makes me endure my dad all the time... I can't stand it anymore..."
Xia Chujian: “…”
This is also true.
In fact, Xia Chujian didn’t understand why either.
She thought Aunt Chen should be able to resist, but she didn't, and she and her daughter were beaten by the man.
If anyone dared to do this to her aunt, she would definitely shoot him to pieces with a submachine gun.
But there are all kinds of people in this world, and she is not an expert in human research. Who knows what is going on with these people?
She glanced at Fantani at the door and saw that Fantani was actually looking at her.
She suddenly looked over and her gaze met Fantani's.
Xia Chu met them and looked away expressionlessly.
She put on her schoolbag and strode towards the classroom door without paying any attention to Zhu Yingying.
When I went out, I passed by the heavily made-up Fantani.
Fantani's eyes flickered as she suddenly stopped her and said, "You are Xia Chujian, right? Do you want to go with us to see the world? My fiancé has brought many young talents from Dafu County. If you can hook up with any of them, you won't have to worry about your life..."
The two girls accompanying her laughed uncontrollably: "Her?! She's so ugly! Who would like her?"
"That's right! Someone like her, with poor grades and ugly looks, should be thankful to be able to work as a factory girl after graduation. And she's still thinking about climbing up the social ladder? ...Tani, you're so kind!"
"Yes, yes! Tenny, if you have any good men, please introduce them to us! It's better to marry well than to do well in the exam. My mother has always wanted me to marry into a famous family!"
