Chapter 135: Uneasy
"Ah? Boss, what do you mean?" Zhao Xuanlang scratched his hair, somewhat puzzled.
"Nothing." Zhong Nianyao shook her head. "You'll know soon anyway."
Seeing that Zhong Nian Yao didn't seem to have any intention of explaining, Zhao Xuanlang was puzzled but did not continue to ask.
Just as the two continued walking forward, they met two acquaintances.
One of them was Shen Yixue, whom they were just discussing. As for the other one——
Zhong Nianyao looked for a long time before she recognized that it was the girl she had seen in the mall before, shopping with Shen Yixiu, whose name seemed to be Chen Lian'er.
When she saw Zhong Nianyao and Zhao Xuanlang, Shen Yixue was also stunned for a moment. She subconsciously wanted to pull Chen Lian'er away. For some reason, she always felt that Zhong Nianyao wanted to know something. So, recently, she didn't want to see Zhong Nianyao at all.
However, Shen Yixue wanted to leave, but Chen Lian'er directly pulled her and walked forward towards Zhong Nianyao.
Shen Yixue didn't frown and wanted to leave, but she couldn't break free from Chen Lian'er's hand. Moreover, they had already attracted Zhong Nianyao's attention. If they left at this time, it would be very obvious.
Therefore, as a last resort, Shen Yixue and Chen Lian'er walked in front of Zhong Nianyao and Zhao Xuanlang.
Suddenly being blocked, before Zhong Nianyao could say anything, Zhao Xuanlang immediately became impatient and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
The tone was very bad, implying that a good dog doesn't block the road.
However, Chen Lian'er obviously didn't notice Zhao Xuanlang's displeasure. She spoke directly to Zhong Nianyao, "Zhong Nianyao, you should know that Xiaoxue won first place in this calligraphy and painting competition!"
"Oh!" Zhong Nianyao nodded indifferently, "So?"
Seeing Zhong Nianyao's cold attitude, Chen Lian'er seemed very dissatisfied. "Zhong Nianyao, what's with your attitude? Could it be that Xiaoxue won first place and you are not happy?"
Hearing this, Zhong Nianyao looked at Chen Lian'er as if she were a fool. Before she could say anything, Zhao Xuanlang couldn't help but start to criticize her.
"Chen Lian'er, is there something wrong with your brain?" Zhao Xuanlang didn't say anything polite and directly challenged, "What's the relationship between Shen Yixue and the boss? Shen Yixue got first place, it's none of the boss's business. Why should the boss be happy?"
"Don't you find it ridiculous that you said such a thing?"
Chen Lian'er was naturally very sad to be confronted like this by the person she liked. However, she would not blame Zhao Xuanlang, but thought it was all Zhong Nianyao's fault.
"Zhong Nianyao, what's so great about you!" The resentful eyes fell on Zhong Nianyao, "You can only hide behind Xuan Lang. No wonder everyone likes Xiaoxue and not you."
"Chen Lian'er, are you fucking crazy?" Zhao Xuanlang couldn't help but swear. "I'm the one arguing with you now. What does this have to do with the boss?"
"you--"
Looking at Zhao Xuanlang's ruthless look, Chen Lian'er's eyes began to turn red.
“Xuan Lang, you are going too far by talking like that.” Shen Yixue stepped forward and pulled Chen Lian’er to her side, her eyes filled with reproach. “Lian’er is a girl. Even if she speaks a little harshly, you can’t treat her like this!”
"Why are you everywhere?" Zhao Xuanlang was a little impatient. "Chen Yixue, you just won the first place in a calligraphy competition. Do you need to publicize it in the school every day? Even if you are really accepted as a student by President Xue of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, it has nothing to do with us!"
He felt that he was really blind before, how could he think that Shen Yixue was a simple and kind person! The smell of green tea was so strong that it could be smelled hundreds of meters away.
These words made Shen Yixue's face turn pale and blue, and she felt particularly embarrassed now.
Because of her first-place title in the calligraphy and painting competition, she had been sought after by everyone around her recently. However, Zhao Xuanlang's words were like a slap in the face, slapping her hard.
"Xuan Lang, we don't mean anything else."
Shen Yixue tried to prepare herself mentally, took a deep breath, and smiled faintly, "I have never thought I was great just because I won first place in this competition. In fact, we just wanted to say hello. We are all classmates, and it is normal to say hello when we meet. You don't have to worry so much."
"Look, Nian Yao hasn't even come out to say anything yet, why are you reacting so strongly?"
Seeing Shen Yixue's hypocritical look, Zhao Xuanlang felt sick. However, before he could open his mouth, he was pushed away.
“Shen Yixue, I heard that tomorrow is the day when President Xue will come over!”
Zhong Nianyao directly pulled Zhao Xuanlang in front of her away, with a smile on her face, and suddenly said, "It seems that tomorrow is really a good day!"
"Of course."
Chen Lian'er stepped forward, looking proud. "The school has already issued an announcement. The ceremony will be held directly in the school auditorium. President Xue will be there in person."
"Not only that, even Jingming's mother will be here. She's very happy with Xiaoxue as her future daughter-in-law."
In that way, it was as if the winner was not Shen Yixue, but herself.
Shen Yixue, who was standing by, didn't know why, but she always felt uneasy in her heart. It was obviously a good thing, but her heart just couldn't calm down.
"In that case, I really must go and witness your glorious moment." Zhong Nianyao said with a half-smile, "After all, we have been classmates for many years."
"What, you're coming?"
Shen Yixue was shocked, and then she realized that her reaction seemed a little big, so she quickly raised a concealing smile, “I thought you had no interest in such things.”
"Haha, this is a big event for our college. As a member of Tenglong College, I naturally have to participate." Zhong Nianyao said with a smile, "Don't you think so?"
The smile on Shen Yixue's face seemed a little forced.
Finally, after a few words of greeting, Shen Yixue hurriedly pulled Chen Lian'er away.
"Boss, are you really going to the auditorium tomorrow?" Zhao Xuanlang asked, "What's so good about it? That Shen Yixue, just won first place, seems to be able to call the shots in the academy. She's really a green tea girl."
