Chapter Two: Why Didn't They Get Me Food?
Xu Yihuan walked to her seat.
He happened to make eye contact with Wu Qingqing.
Wu Qingqing hurriedly withdrew the smugness from her eyes and pretended to be concerned as she advised Xu Yihuan.
"Huanhuan, don't talk back to your math teacher next time. After all, the college entrance exam is just around the corner. If you keep doing this, Yan Ze will hear about it and scold you again."
Xu Yihuan had always tried to please her, after all, she was now living in Zhou Yanzhe's house.
She was a poor student sponsored by Zhou Yanzhe's family. She was lucky enough to be admitted to Yuncheng No.1 Middle School during the high school entrance examination.
Zhou's parents were kind-hearted, so they took her into their home to keep Zhou Yanzhe company.
I've been this companion for three years.
Xu Yihuan didn't even glance at Wu Qingqing.
Even now, she still thinks she can use Zhou Yanzhe to intimidate her?
Xu Yihuan picked up the test paper on her own and looked at the blackboard seriously.
Wu Qingqing was completely ignored.
Just as he was about to say something to provoke Xu Yihuan, he suddenly remembered his system.
Well, it's a good thing that Xu Yihuan is reading some books.
The more she read, the higher her test scores became.
Wu Qingqing curled her lips into a smug smile, her face contorting with a smug look.
A class period goes by quickly.
get out of class ended just in time for lunch.
The school has a semi-closed teaching system, and students must eat lunch in the cafeteria.
When the bell rang, Xu Yihuan headed to the cafeteria.
Wu Qingqing originally wanted to turn around and ask Xu Yihuan what dishes they wanted to eat today, since Xu Yihuan usually cooked for them.
Unexpectedly, Xu Yihuan disappeared when he turned around.
Wu Qingqing shrugged, assuming that Xu Yihuan had left early.
Perhaps Xu Yihuan knew in advance what good dishes the cafeteria had, and was therefore eager to get food for them.
After packing her things, Wu Qingqing took out a mirror and looked at herself.
Let your ponytail down and give yourself a perfect smile in the mirror.
Then he picked up the math workbook from the table and went straight to the next classroom.
The class next door is a top-tier science class, Class 1.
At this moment, only Zhou Yanzhe remained in the large class.
Zhou Yanzhe, dressed in a blue and white school uniform, sat alone by the window, his posture upright and his face aloof.
Just then, a ray of sunlight shone in and fell on him, making him look much gentler.
A hint of infatuation appeared in Wu Qingqing's eyes.
Then, with a perfect smile, she walked to the table in front of Zhou Yanzhe and sat down.
"Brother Yanze, there are a few questions I didn't understand in class, can you teach me?" Her voice was so soft it could melt your heart.
Zhou Yanzhe looked up at Wu Qingqing, his brows furrowing almost imperceptibly.
His voice was indifferent: "Are you alone?"
The seemingly random sentence caused Wu Qingqing's smile to freeze for a moment.
"Yes...yes."
"Oh, Huanhuan went to the cafeteria first. It must be because there were too many people today. Huanhuan left very quickly after class. I called her to wait, but she didn't hear me."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yanzhe's slightly furrowed brows relaxed, and his tone softened.
"Okay, let's look at the questions."
One problem after another was solved, and students in the class gradually returned.
They weren't surprised to see Wu Qingqing in their class.
The explanation of their questions was not finished until more than half of the students had come in.
Heading to the cafeteria.
The cafeteria was full of students eating with a book in one hand and a spoon in the other.
Xu Yihuan was no exception.
At this moment, Zhou Yanzhe and Wu Qingqing arrived late.
Xu Yihuan stood out from the crowd with her upright posture.
Zhou Yanzhe's gaze immediately fell on Xu Yihuan.
She's already packing her things.
Zhou Yanzhe stopped in front of Xu Yihuan.
He didn't say anything, just stared at her intently.
A dark shadow fell down, making it difficult to read the words in the vocabulary book.
Xu Yihuan frowned and looked up.
His gaze fell on Zhou Yanzhe's face.
"Hey, you're blocking my light."
Zhou Yanzhe had a cold expression, but a closer look at his eyes revealed a hint of grievance.
"Xu Yihuan, where's my food?"
Xu Yihuan was baffled: "What do you mean your food? Your food is with the cafeteria lady, what does that have to do with me?"
Wu Qingqing was surprised that Xu Yihuan ate by herself first this time, without preparing food for them.
My stomach was growling loudly from hunger.
Standing next to Zhou Yanzhe, she looked aggrieved.
"Huanhuan, we didn't mean to be so late today. You know, my grades aren't very good."
"I'm late only because Yan Ze taught me two math problems."
"After all, the college entrance examination is just around the corner, so I have to seize every minute and second."
Wu Qingqing looked pitiful, and every word she said made sense.
Zhou Yanzhe simply stood to the side, staring intently at Xu Yihuan.
Xu Yihuan knew that what Wu Qingqing said was also what he wanted to say.
It's just looking at the questions, what's there to fuss about?
Xu Yihuan slowly wiped her mouth.
"Oh, what does that have to do with me?"
"Just a friendly reminder, if you don't go get your food soon, you won't even get any soup."
Xu Yihuan turned her head and looked at the cafeteria auntie who was already packing up.
Students were required to finish their meals within forty minutes, and the cafeteria staff were used to cleaning up at that time. They never expected that someone would wait until it was almost time to clean up before coming to buy food.
Wu Qingqing glared at her anxiously, then turned and ran towards the cafeteria lady.
"Auntie, wait a minute! Please wait a bit before you accept it!"
The cafeteria lady paused in her tidying up.
"Oh dear, young lady, why didn't you say so sooner? Now there's only a little bit of soup left..."
Seeing Wu Qingqing's disheveled appearance, Xu Yihuan couldn't help but chuckle.
This smile seemed to confirm Zhou Yanzhe's inner thoughts.
"Xu Yihuan, you're angry."
It appears to be a question, but it is actually an affirmative statement.
Xu Yihuan suppressed her smile, remained silent, and began tidying up the things on the table.
Having been given a second chance at life, I've only just realized how big Zhou Yanzhe's face is.
"Are you angry because I told you not to fill out the form, or are you angry because I helped Qingqing with her homework?"
"If it's the former, I've already explained it to you very clearly."
“I don’t like people who reap the rewards without sowing. With your abilities, you can get whatever you want, and I won’t look down on you. But if you actually accept this handout, then I will truly look down on you.”
Xu Yihuan didn't even look up, quickening her pace as she tidied up. Hearing Zhou Yanzhe's words, she felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.
The guaranteed admission spot that he earned through his own abilities was, in his words, nothing more than a handout.
Zhou Yanzhe seemed oblivious to Xu Yihuan's reaction, continuing to chatter on and on.
"If it's the latter, Qingqing was raised by my family, so it's only right that I help her. Why are you being so stingy?"
"Could this be what your upbringing was like?"
Xu Yihuan didn't react to the previous words at all, but she heard the last sentence.
Xu Yihuan's expression immediately turned cold.
She grabbed the plate she had just finished eating from and forcefully splashed the remaining soup onto Zhou Yanzhe's face.
