Lou Qianzong had just poked half his body out of the car when he saw this scene and quickly shrunk back into the car.
Geng Qiu asked in surprise, "Why are you back again?"
Lou Qianzong: "I can't afford to lose face like this, so don't tell anyone I know her."
Geng Qiu followed his gaze and saw Chu Nian glance at Cheng Kejia kneeling in front of him, then jump away as if startled, exclaiming, "Who is this? Why are they begging at the school gate?"
Geng Qiu was immediately at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
The classmates had initially assumed Cheng Kejia knew Chu Nian, but after hearing Chu Nian's explanation, they all changed their minds and looked at Cheng Kejia with puzzlement. Few would believe she was a beggar, given the expensive clothes and shoes she wore.
Cheng Kejia started crying again, shouting, "Yi Nian, how can you be so heartless? You and Ai Wen are still together..."
"Miss Cheng!" Her words were interrupted by Chen Zhao's cold voice.
Chen Zhao got out of the car.
Many people were immediately struck by his handsome and resolute appearance, and many girls couldn't help but gasp softly.
Chen Zhao stared at Cheng Kejia and said in a deep voice, "By doing this, you're not only ruining yourself, but also the Cheng family and your Ai Wen."
Cheng Kejia's family, the Cheng family, is a prominent family in X City. Her parents are not ordinary people; they even have considerable influence in the capital. If a reporter were to photograph her kneeling before a student here, who knows what kind of uproar it would cause? The entire Cheng family might even come out against Chu Nian.
Cheng Kejia couldn't possibly be unaware of the consequences of her actions; she intended to use various forces to coerce Chu Nian.
However, Cheng Kejia can utilize power and public opinion, and so can Chen Zhao; moreover, given Chen Zhao's abilities, he would probably be even more adept at using them than Cheng Kejia.
“Mr. Chen,” Cheng Kejia said, “don’t you want to know what Yi Nian has done to her good friend and partner Ai Wen?”
Chen Zhao: "I've known what she did for a long time. I've also known what Ai Wen did to her for a long time. I don't think Niannian did anything wrong; it was Ai Wen who showed her no mercy first."
Lou Qianzong sat in the car, pouting and muttering under his breath, "When did he become so eloquent? I've never seen him argue so strongly for me before."
Geng Qiu wanted to say, "You're a boy, why are you always jealous of girls?!" But when the words were about to come out, he remembered how he had always been rebuffed in front of this ancestor, so he decided to keep his mouth shut: to save his life, he wouldn't say anything!
Cheng Kejia chuckled coldly a few times and said, "That's right, you and she are probably both the kind of ruthless and heartless people, birds of a feather, that's why you've ended up together!"
With a cold expression, Chen Zhao protected Chu Nian and walked straight towards the school, not wanting to pay any more attention to Cheng Kejia.
Cheng Kejia was unwilling to give up, so she got up and chased after the two of them.
Seeing this, Geng Qiu quickly got out of the car and blocked Cheng Kejia's way, saying, "Miss Cheng, stop fooling around."
Cheng Kejia shouted angrily, "Do you know what she did to Ai Wen? You're all men, don't you think about what would happen if she did that to you?"
Geng Qiu's face twitched, and he said, "I don't have Ai Wen's guts to do such a heinous thing to a woman. You are all women, so imagine if you were in Yi Nian's situation, wouldn't you feel hatred? Wouldn't you want revenge?"
Cheng Kejia was taken aback and asked in surprise, "What are you talking about? What heinous thing did Ai Wen do?"
Geng Qiu gave a helpless, cold laugh and said, "So you have no idea what happened. Then go back and ask Ai Wen what he did to wrong Yi Nian!"
Cheng Kejia walked away with a puzzled look on her face.
At this moment, Chu Nian had already been escorted by Chen Zhao to the depths of the campus.
Lou Qianzong had caught up at some point. When Chen Zhao saw him, he scolded him with some exasperation, "Why didn't you step forward earlier? What are you doing following me now?"
Lou Qianzong: "Chen Zhao, don't meddle in other people's business."
Chen Zhao: "Niannian is not someone else."
Lou Qianzong angrily asked, "Then what exactly is your relationship with her?" They clearly have no relationship at all, yet she's always clinging to him like this!
Chen Zhao paused for a moment, then said, "She was adopted by me, and I am her guardian, so I have to be responsible for her."
Lou Qianzong: "Is that really all there is to it?"
Chen Zhao: "Otherwise what?" He paused, then added: "Now you're adopted by me, and I'm your guardian, so you'd better behave yourself!"
Lou Qianzong frowned deeply: From Chen Zhao's words, the literal meaning was that he and Yi Nian were both adopted by Chen Zhao and were both under Chen Zhao's guardianship, so their status was equal in Chen Zhao's eyes; but why couldn't he feel happy after hearing this? Why did he feel that he and Yi Nian were worlds apart in Chen Zhao's heart?
He's clearly a drama queen, often using language as a special weapon to sow discord, yet at this moment he can't discern the different meanings conveyed by the same words through tone of voice. Sigh! Looking at the confusion on his face, Chu Nian really didn't know what to say to him.
This is probably what they mean by being too close to the situation to see it clearly!
Lou Qianzong was indeed gay, and it was probably Chen Zhao who made him gay. However, whether Chen Zhao was the real Chen Zhao or had his soul replaced like Yi Nian, Chu Nian had no idea.
She didn't want to delve into it further.
When they arrived at the classroom door, Chen Zhao said to her gently, "Go to class, I'll go to the principal's office to report."
"Reporting for duty?" Chu Nian asked in surprise.
Chen Zhao: "I said yesterday that I would come to the school to take on a position."
Chu Nian was even more surprised: "It's already done?" Geng Qiu got it done in just one night? That's impressive efficiency!
Seeing that Chen Zhao was about to leave, Lou Qianzong said sourly, "I have to go to class too, why aren't you talking to me?"
Chen Zhao gave him a cold glare, but didn't say anything to him and just left.
Lou Qianzong seemed to have suffered a great shock. He stormed into the classroom and slammed his schoolbag heavily on the table.
This guy was a zombie after all. As his anger flared up, his aura suddenly surged, and the classroom fell silent instantly. The students inexplicably felt short of breath, and cold sweat poured down their foreheads.
Seeing this, Chu Nian could only advise, "Little Lin, what are you upset about? Chen Zhao only came to work at the school because of you."
Lou Qianzong's anger vanished instantly, and he asked in bewilderment, "What do you mean?"
Chu Nian: "I've been at school for several days now, and he hasn't said he'd come to the school to take up a position. He came as soon as you arrived at the school. Isn't that because of you?"
Lou Qianzong was stunned for a moment, looking at Chu Nian's beautiful eyes blinking, looking incredibly cute. Chu Nian's heart almost melted at the sight, let alone the other girls around her.
