Chapter 9 The Compensation She Wants
Lin Wanyi hurriedly stood up and tried to explain: "Ningning, it's not what you think."
Wen Ning's eyes were completely red: "What happened?"
Lin Wanyi looked at her, opened her lips, but no sound came out of her throat.
Zhou Qingci couldn't help but recall that more than three years ago, Wen Ning handed him a mock exam transcript with a score of 650 and carefully asked him if this result was okay, because the Zhou brothers were extremely talented in studying and their scores were never less than 700. In addition, Yaya sprained her ankle, and he was in a hurry to send her to the hospital, so he casually said that it was bad.
At that time, Wen Ning's eyelashes were wet with tears and his eyes were red, just like now.
Zhou Qingci felt guilty: "I was the one who got Yaya to take your place in the school. If you want to blame someone, blame me."
Zhou Yaya looked at this scene, and the expression in her eyes became increasingly gloomy.
I thought that after what happened three years ago, the Zhou family had completely given up on Wen Ning.
I didn't expect Zhou Qingci to bring her back. Now when talking about the notice, I feel sorry for Wen Ning.
It seems that she underestimated the power of blood.
Thinking of this, Zhou Ya stood up, holding her chest.
"Sister, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I admit my mistake to the school and apply to withdraw from school."
"Nonsense, you can't just refuse to go to a top university like A University?" Zhou Donghai said.
Zhou Qingyan also quickly agreed: "Yes, Yaya, you have worked so hard for so long, how can she take everything away from you as soon as she comes back?"
She works hard?
I snatched it away?
This is too absurd.
But Wen Ning no longer cared about the Zhou family's favoritism and ignored Zhou Qingyan's mad dog-like shouting.
She just turned her head and looked at Zhou Donghai and Lin Wanyi.
"That's the result I achieved through studying day and night, writing every word carefully."
"You have all the connections, allowing Zhou Yaya to reap the benefits. She is your daughter who needs your care, but I don't, do I?"
Lin Wanyi trembled with guilt, "No, no, you are my biological daughter, how could a mother not feel sorry for you."
Zhou Donghai also sighed: "But it's been three years since the incident happened. Dad knows you feel wronged. Besides University A, you can ask for any compensation you want. I will satisfy you."
After receiving this promise, Wen Ning's fists, which had been clenched till white, relaxed slightly.
She had known for a long time that she would not be able to get back the admission letter from University A, but she was not disappointed.
The reason why she kept holding on to it was to make the Zhou family feel guilty about it so that they would satisfy her demands.
She also thought about asking for some money, flying high, and completely getting away from the Zhou family's quagmire, but Zhou Donghai would never allow her to do that!
And seeing her brother's disabled legs, how could she leave alone?
After a while, Wen Ning raised his eyes and said firmly, "I'm going to register as a senior student. I want to take the college entrance exam again."
As soon as the words fell, the air suddenly became quiet.
After a while, a disdainful sneer was heard.
"Oh, you're really smart. The college entrance exam is only three months away. Do you want to use this time to get into a junior college and bring shame to the Zhou family?"
"Second brother, how can you say that to your sister?" Lin Wanyi couldn't help but say after scolding her, "Ningning, Mom still owns a few shops, and I'll leave them to you to rent. There's no need to retake the exam."
"Yes, it's great that you can just lie down and make money." Zhou Yaya said gently and considerately, "Besides, if you repeat your senior year of high school at your age, I'm afraid people will gossip about you."
It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned it, but once he did, Wen Ning could barely contain his anger. "Hasn't there been enough gossip about me?"
Throughout her senior year of high school, in order not to bring shame to the Zhou family and to allow her family to see her strengths, she buried herself in her studies and turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside.
But when she turned around, she was surrounded by people pointing fingers at her, calling her a scheming woman, a plagiarist, a green tea bitch, and a cheap mistress...
Zhou Yaya's eyes flashed with joy, but she sobbed softly, "I'm sorry, sister. It's all my fault."
"Yaya, why are you apologizing to her? She should be apologizing to you!" Zhou Qingyan glared at Wen Ning and defended him loudly.
Wen Ning was too lazy to argue with them. "I won't go to school to review. Help me rent an apartment and hire teachers for various subjects. I'll study on my own."
Wen Ning had considered this a long time ago.
There are still three months before the college entrance examination. If I go to school at this time, I will not be able to keep up with the progress of the main group.
If you want to review to the best of your ability, you can only hire a teacher for one-on-one tutoring.
Wen Ning said calmly, "This is all the compensation I want. Can you give it to me?"
Zhou Donghai met Wen Ning's dark eyes and always felt that there was something different about her.
But when you think about it carefully, it’s no different from before.
Now is the time to take advantage of his guilt and ask for money and shares instead of pretending to be noble and asking him to take the college entrance examination again.
I grew up in the countryside and have a short attention span. This is how my life will be.
Zhou Donghai's eyes were filled with cold disdain, and he said in a deep voice, "Okay, I promise you everything."
Lin Wanyi suddenly said, "No, I'm worried about Ningning living outside alone. She should stay at home."
Wen Ning's eyelashes trembled slightly. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Lin Wanyi mutter softly, "Living out right after being discharged from the hospital. It would be embarrassing if it got out."
A hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of Wen Ning's lips.
Zhou Donghai thought for a moment and changed his tone, "Your mother is right. She should live at home. Big brother, you can help her get her school registration. Second brother, you can contact the tutor."
Zhou Qingci agreed in a deep voice.
Zhou Qingyan also hummed reluctantly, but Zhou Yaya hugged Zhou Donghai's arm and said coquettishly, "Dad, I can also help my sister find a teacher."
Zhou Donghai smiled and patted her head, "Okay, then you help her find it too."
Zhou Yaya smiled sweetly and glanced at Wen Ning with a smug look in her eyes.
But Wen Ning didn't even look at them. Her goal had been achieved and she had no time to waste here.
Lin Wanyi called her, "Ningning, Mom hasn't seen you for a long time. Can you talk to Mom for a while?"
"I'm going back to my room to study."
As he spoke, he did not stop.
She is very busy and has no time to waste on boring things.
After leaving the main house, she walked straight to the detached villa on the southernmost side of the manor, which was Zhou Qinghe's residence.
She wanted to start reviewing quickly, but all her original textbooks and exercise books were lost, so she wanted her brother to help her buy some reference books.
Suddenly, a deep male voice came from behind.
"Wen Ning."
Wen Ning paused, then continued walking forward as if he hadn't heard anything.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps behind her, and soon, a tall and straight figure blocked her way.
Seeing that handsome and familiar face, Wen Ning felt a pang of pain in his heart. He quickly looked away and asked calmly, "Mr. Chen, is there anything wrong?"
