Chapter 50 Showdown "Ling Yi is now my fiancé. You...
Ling Yi raised his voice slightly and repeated: "My classmate, if you have poor hearing, I will say it again, you are blocking my way, please move aside."
Xie Yuyao looked at Ling Yi in disbelief: "You actually talked to me like this, you never did that before."
Chu Qingtang pulled Xie Yuyao away from behind: "Get out of the way, didn't you hear what Ling Yi said?"
Then he pulled Ling Yi and walked to the back.
Xie Yuyao wanted to catch up, but she noticed that the whole class's eyes were focused here, so she paused, pursed her lips, and returned to her seat.
"Yuyao, what's wrong with you? What happened just now?" Han Feier came over and asked in a low voice: "Do you know this young master who just returned from the Ling family?"
"Young Master of the Ling Family?" Xie Yuyao came back to her senses and asked, "What Young Master of the Ling Family? Which Ling Family?"
"You don't know? Don't you know him?" Han Fei'er said in surprise: "Which other Ling family can there be in City A? It's naturally the richest Ling family. The eldest daughter of the Ling family left home for nearly 20 years and came back a month ago with her husband and a son named Ling. Don't you know that too?"
Xie Yuyao didn't say anything. She had heard that the son brought back by the eldest daughter of the Ling family was named Ling Yi, but she didn't expect that this Ling Yi was the Ling Yi she knew.
Isn't Ling Yi an illegitimate child who is not loved by his mother? Isn't he a gangster who went out to mix in society before he even graduated from high school?
Han Feier turned her head and glanced at Ling Yi who was sitting in the last row. "Everyone said that the eldest daughter of the Ling family brought back a son with her last name to fight for the family property. Everyone speculated that the power within the Ling family would be reshuffled soon. But a month has passed, and there is no movement."
"According to the Ling family's status in City A and their good relationship with the Chu family, it's not an exaggeration to say that this young master of the Ling family is the crown prince of City A. However, this crown prince only showed up once at a charity dinner held in Dijing Garden when he just came back, and has not attended any banquets since then. Many people still don't know him."
"But..." Han Feier's voice was full of doubt: "Didn't you say that this young master of the Ling family just graduated from junior high school and will be in the first year of high school when he re-enrolls? Why is he in our class?"
"And he's so close to Chu Qingtang, could it be that—" Han Feier frowned, "The Ling and Chu families are going to get married."
"Shut up!" Xie Yuyao shouted, "Don't talk nonsense."
Han Feier was startled and looked at Xie Yuyao in surprise: "Yuyao, what's wrong with you?"
Although Xie Yuyao is the daughter of the deputy mayor, she has a gentle temperament and does not have the temper of a spoiled young lady. She is completely different from the domineering Chu Qingtang. How come she seemed like a different person just now?
Xie Yuyao turned around and took a deep look at Ling Yi and Chu Qingtang who were sitting in the last row. Then she turned around, picked up the pen on the table, and said calmly, "Don't make random guesses about things that are unfounded."
"Are you in a bad mood? What's wrong?" Ling Yi asked Chu Qingtang, who had not spoken since he sat down.
Chu Qingtang was quite talkative, so he was a little uncomfortable with his sudden silence.
Chu Qingtang lay on the table, turned his head to look at Ling Yi, and asked him: "Ling Yi, what do you think of Xie Yuyao?"
Ling Yi asked in confusion: "Xie Yuyao? Who is Xie Yuyao?"
"That's the girl who just blocked your way!" Chu Qingtang curled his lips, a little listless: "Do you think she is beautiful and gentle? Do you like her?"
"Why do you ask that?" Ling Yi was surprised: "Didn't I tell you that my mother said that I can't fall in love before I reach adulthood, so I won't like any girl."
"What about after you grow up? Will you like her after you grow up?" Chu Qingtang asked.
"No." This time Ling Yi answered very straightforwardly.
"You're lying." You clearly liked her in your previous life.
"Why do you think I like her?" Ling Yi asked curiously.
"Don't you think she is generous, decent, intellectual, elegant, and unworldly, a model among socialites?"
Ling Yi thought about the brief encounter and answered honestly, "I didn't notice. I just thought she was weird, like a patient who ran out of a mental hospital and didn't take medicine."
"Hahahaha!" Chu Qingtang couldn't stop laughing.
After stopping, Chu Qingtang gave Ling Yi a thumbs up: "Your description is very accurate, good, keep it up!"
Ling Yi asked: "Do you hate her?"
Chu Qingtang nodded vigorously: "Yeah. Many people in school like her. Not only do they like her, but they also always criticize me when they praise her. Naturally, I don't like her."
After that, he demanded domineeringly: "Ling Yi, you must remember that you and I are in the same camp, and you must hate her with me."
Ling Yi: "Okay, I understand."
As soon as Ling Yi finished speaking, Li Hui, the head teacher of Class 3, Grade 2, walked in.
He cleared his throat and said, "Students, please be quiet for a moment. We have a new student in our class this semester. Let's ask him to introduce himself first, okay?"
"Okay!" Everyone said in unison, their voices loud and clear.
Li Hui smiled with satisfaction, looked at Ling Yi at the back of the classroom, and waved, "Come here, Ling Yi, let everyone get to know you."
Chu Qingtang clenched his fist and whispered, "Come on."
Ling Yi walked up to the podium and said lightly: "My name is Ling Yi." Then he prepared to leave.
"Is that all?" Li Hui raised his eyebrows: "Ling Yi, you can say a few more words. Our first class is a class meeting, so there is no rush."
Ling Yi raised his eyes and asked, "What did you say?"
Li Hui patiently asked, "For example, how old are you, what are your hobbies, and so on."
"Oh!" Ling Yi nodded and said, "14 years old, hobbies——"
Ling Yi thought for a moment, then turned his head and asked Li Hui: "Does fighting count?"
Li Hui suggested seriously: "Can you change to a more elegant hobby?"
“Then program it.”
Li Hui applauded and praised: "This is a good hobby."
Ling Yi asked Li Hui: "Is it ok?"
Li Hui smiled: "Okay, go down!"
Amid the warm applause in the classroom, Chu Qingtang gave a thumbs up to Ling Yi who was sitting next to him: "Well said."
On the stage, Li Hui made a stop gesture, resting his hands on the podium, and spoke in a calm voice: "Okay, classmates. After getting to know the new classmates, we will officially embark on a new journey. Let me first talk about the course plan for this semester..."
Big break.
"Ling Yi, I'm going to the bathroom. Do you want to accompany me?" Chu Qingtang teased Ling Yi with a smile.
Ling Yi held the textbook in his arms, not even blinking: "No."
"Alright!" Chu Qingtang stood up from his seat, turned to the front row, and warned the eager sisters with eyes full of warning: "You, restrain yourself! He is reading a book, don't disturb him."
"Qingtang, have we fallen out of favor?" Li Yinyin looked at Chu Qingtang with pretended grievance.
Chu Qingtang walked towards the back door, laughing and saying, "Of course not. With a new love, I don't have time to care about you old loves."
Coming out of the bathroom, Chu Qingtang looked at Xie Yuyao who was blocking him, shook the water droplets on his hands, and asked calmly: "Xie Yuyao, when did you develop a hobby of blocking the way?"
Xie Yuyao looked into Chu Qingtang's eyes: "Let's talk."
"Not interested." After saying that, Chu Qingtang was about to walk around Xie Yuyao and leave.
"Then I'll go talk to Ling Yi."
Chu Qingtang paused, turned around, put his hand on Xie Yuyao's shoulder, and said in a bad tone: "Don't set your sights on him."
Xie Yuyao curled the corners of her lips slightly but said nothing.
Chu Qingtang put down his hands and crossed his arms over his chest, "What do you want to talk about?"
"I think the topic we want to discuss is not suitable to be discussed in a crowded place like this." Xie Yuyao gestured to the students passing by who were looking at them, "Let's go to the rooftop!"
"Can you tell me now?" Chu Qingtang leaned against the fence of the rooftop.
"You also came back from ten years later, right?" Xie Yuyao stared into Chu Qingtang's eyes.
Chu Qingtang sneered: "Have you read too many novels?"
"If you didn't come back from ten years ago, why did you come here with me?"
"Because I'm very curious, why Miss Xie, who has always been aloof and dismissive of me in the past, is pursuing me relentlessly today. And the result is just this?" Chu Qingtang spread his hands.
"Then why are you so close to Ling Yi?"
"Because, he is my fiancé—" Chu Qingtang smiled like a flower and spoke word by word: "Fiancé!"
"Fiancé?" Xie Yuyao murmured to herself, then shook her head: "Impossible. He clearly loved me in his last life."
Chu Qingtang's face turned cold: "Xie Yuyao, if you are sick, go take medicine. Don't be so used to being praised by others that you imagine yourself to be a popular person."
After saying that, Chu Qingtang walked away.
"I know you liked Ling Yi in your last life, but he only liked me."
Chu Qingtang stopped, turned around, and slapped him with his backhand: "Say it again!"
Xie Yuyao covered her face and chuckled: "You were reborn, and I was reborn too. Is it possible that the next one will be Ling Yi?"
"You know how much he likes me."
Chu Qingtang stretched out his hand and held Xie Yuyao's chin: "Are you proud? Proud?"
The other hand tapped Xie Yuyao's heart: "Ask yourself, are you worthy of his love?"
Chu Qingtang sneered: "They say you are approachable and not arrogant. But they don't know that your arrogance and superiority are in your bones. Your disdain and contempt for ordinary people are not on your face, not in your eyes, but in your heart, in the deepest part of your mind, and are deeply rooted."
"You obviously look down on Ling Yi's background and his lack of family background, but you enjoy his protection and his kindness to you. Even if you fall into the mud, you still think he is not worthy of you."
"So, you never responded to his love. So, from the beginning to the end, you had nothing to do with each other."
"It's not like that." Xie Yuyao broke free from Chu Qingtang's shackles and took a step back: "It's not what you said at all."
"No?" Chu Qingtang took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands, his eyes full of mockery: "You shouldn't have just come back today, then why haven't you ever looked for him before?"
"I……"
"Can't answer?" Chu Qingtang's eyes flashed with understanding: "Because you have never tried to understand him. Because in your perception, he is still an illegitimate child who is hated by his family."
"Maybe..." Chu Qingtang's face was even more sarcastic: "You still think that he is not worthy of liking you, Miss Xie. So, you have never thought about looking for him or having any contact with him again, am I right?"
Throwing the handkerchief away, Chu Qingtang warned: "Ling Yi is now my fiancé. You'd better not try to get close to him."
After saying this, Chu Qingtang prepared to leave.
Turning around, I saw Ling Yi standing at the door not far away, looking at this side quietly.
