"Okay! I know, let's go!"
"Sister Wenwen, do you think it could be Sister Chenhua who did it? After thinking about it, only her timing fits."
"It's unlikely. My little sister is such a well-behaved person, she wouldn't do such a thing. If she were going to do it, she would have told us. So don't talk about this person anymore."
She, Shang Wenwen, doesn't necessarily need a specific person. She was fine when she was alone before, let alone now that she has two good friends.
"Okay! Then let's not talk about it, I don't want to bring it up either."
"Walk slowly and watch your step."
On the way, Shen Hua saw the two of them, and also saw the cast on Xi Yi's foot.
"How did you get yourself into this state?"
"Sister Chen Hua, please don't scold me. It was an accident. I'm a little worried now. With this injury, not being able to train is a minor issue, but what if it interferes with the competition? I don't want to withdraw like this."
Shen Hua didn't know what to say. She had made her take medicinal baths every day, which had made her body much stronger. It was quite impressive that she could still get herself into this state.
"When you get back to the dorm at noon, I'll give you a few acupuncture treatments."
"Sister Chen Hua, you must be joking! Needles are terrifying."
What do you think?
Shen Hua gave her a look, letting her understand on her own.
Xi Yi could tell that Shen Hua was serious; she was going to get a few needle pricks at noon, so she looked at Shang Wenwen for help.
"It's alright. My medical skills are superb. If you want to compete, just bear with the needles. It's better to get a short pain than a long one."
Xiyi:......
"Alright then! It's settled, just a few stitches."
The group chatted and laughed for a while before parting ways to go to their respective classrooms.
During the break, when Nangong Rui came over to talk to them, Shen Hua asked about the matter.
"Nangong Rui, I heard you have special channels to get a driver's license without being an adult. Is that true?"
"It's not exactly a special channel, just some privileges. These privileges are indeed based on the premise that they know you can't drive and cause accidents. Are you looking to buy a car?"
"Hmm! So, is it possible to get this driver's license?"
"This is not easy to obtain either; first, one must test one's strength."
Chen Hua: ...
"Forget it, that's too much trouble. It's better to hire a driver."
"There is some, indeed. If you want to get it, you can tell me, and I'll reluctantly help you."
That's practically saying, "See? I'm the best! I already have a driver's license, and you're still not coming to curry favor with me."
Chen Hua: ...
She's stopped talking. Shang Wenwen hardly speaks anymore. She'll just say "uh-huh" after every sentence you say, and then she won't say another word. Her face is very dark.
Her phone rang, and after glancing at it, she immediately perked up.
Yesterday she sent Su Yang a message: "Do you like rich women?"
That guy didn't reply, but he said he liked me today.
Su Yang: "Chen Hua, the rich woman you're talking about isn't you, is it? Someone as powerful as you, who's also so good-looking, would be liked even if she wasn't rich."
Shen Hua: "Do you think I look like a rich woman? Or have you ever seen a rich woman who needs to work to earn money?"
Su Yang: "That's true. You don't want to be a rich woman, otherwise you would forget how popular your talismans are in no time."
Shen Hua: "That makes sense. So, do you like rich women or not? I'll set you up. You've met one before, she's pretty, the one who went to the film set last time."
Su Yang: "Oh! You mean Sister Jin? Someone like that is too much for me! You can't hurt me."
Shen Hua didn't reply to the message. She put her phone down and fell into deep thought.
This is so difficult. When I searched online, everyone thought rich women were great, and they didn't even care about age or appearance. So why is someone like Jin Jiao, who is excellent in every way—appearance, age, figure, and money—not good enough?
...
"Don't come any closer. Let me tell you, I'm very capable and I don't want to lower myself to your level."
"Oh, really? Then how about you not stoop to my level?"
Jin Jiao let her girlfriends get closer step by step, because her girlfriends liked this kind of young and handsome man.
They wouldn't even consider someone with Shen Hua's looks. Someone like Nangong Rui is good too—good family background, good looks, no matter how you look at it, it's a win-win situation.
"Xiao Nan, right? Look at these ladies, they're all fair-skinned, beautiful, and have long legs. Pick one while you're at it, you won't lose out."
Nangong Rui: ...
Where is there no loss? It's clearly a huge loss.
"Jin Jiao, right! If you don't make them leave, I'm really going to lose my temper."
After speaking, he assumed a defensive posture, clenched his fists, looked at them, and slightly bent his front leg, as if he was about to fight.
Jin Jiao waved her hand, signaling them to step back. She then stepped forward, approaching them step by step, and said, "It's simple if you don't want to be harassed: hand over my little darling."
Nangong Rui sneered and said, "Your little cutie? You don't even know his name. Aren't you afraid of being fooled? To tell you the truth, the person you're talking about had plastic surgery. His name is Mu Xiaoma. He was extremely ugly before the surgery. And he has a secret that no one knows: he likes men. Otherwise, why do you think he would have plastic surgery? It's so that he can find men."
"To be honest, this person is too low-key. You could never find any information about him at school. The only reason I know about him is because he pursued me. He was so aggressive towards me back then, it disgusted me to no end."
Shen Hua, who was at home, suddenly sneezed and rubbed her nose.
Jin Jiao was clearly not convinced, but she was already wavering.
She asked suspiciously, "Are you kidding me? Nobody looks this good with plastic surgery these days, and it's easy to spot someone who's had plastic surgery."
She almost believed what she was saying, and suddenly felt that Nangong Rui was just making things up.
"That shows how ignorant you are. It's true, there are some little-known cosmetic surgery techniques that can be successful as long as you have money and aren't afraid of pain."
Jin Jiao hesitated this time; she actually believed what he said.
Looking at Nangong Rui, he said, "You know so much about this, you weren't also botched, were you?"
Then he took out his hands and rubbed Nangong Rui's face: "You didn't want to get this done."
"Move it away. What are you doing? Can you mess with my face too? I'm naturally beautiful. How could I have had plastic surgery? I'm 100% naturally beautiful."
"All right!"
Jin Jiao let go of his hand and said with some regret, "Is he really that ugly? And he likes men?"
"Of course, if you weren't the kind of guy he likes, you'd never guess he's a total 'refined scoundrel'."
"It's a pity. Someone like you would have been a good match for me in the past, but after seeing that kind of face, I'm no longer interested."
Nangong Rui: ...
That sounds so strange. It shouldn't be a dig at him, right? It shouldn't be. How could Jin Jiao dare to?
"Now that we've made up, can I leave? In the end, you should thank me for what happened today, otherwise you would have been in big trouble."
Jin Jiao nodded in agreement. She then explained why he had avoided her and kept his distance when they met before—it turned out he preferred men.
"Hey! I told you there were some good-looking ones. Here are a few. Not only are the women good-looking, but the men are good-looking too. Take them all back."
