Shen Qiuyu curled her lips and said sourly, "Forget about apologizing, it's not a matter of offending anyone..."
It's because Cheng Yi has character flaws that they don't like hanging out with her.
Cheng Yi, fearing that Shen Qiuyu would continue, quickly interrupted, "Third Brother, Shen and I only had a minor disagreement. You don't need to apologize. Let's divide into groups first."
Shen Qiuyu glanced at He Jing, and considering that He Zhou was also He Jing's brother, she chose to mute herself to avoid making things ugly. Then she continued, "I can team up with Sister Jing. I'm not afraid of ghosts, and we're both girls, so we can look out for each other."
Wu Yu quickly added, "I also want to be in a group with Sister Jing. I'm afraid of ghosts, but Sister Jing isn't, so she can protect me."
Then the other students also expressed their willingness to be in a group with He Jing, because He Jing is intelligent and seems like someone who can carry the team.
There were fewer than twenty people in total, and more than a dozen of them wanted to be in a group with He Jing. They originally thought that Cheng Yi was kind and innocent and would definitely be popular, but they didn't expect that everyone would favor He Jing.
Indeed, with her superb skills, how many people wouldn't be captivated? But time will tell, let's see how long she can keep up the act.
He Zhou's brows were gloomy, and his whole body was extremely cold.
Yan Hanxi's thin lips curled slightly, and he folded the ticket in his hand into a paper airplane. He smiled faintly and said, "Sorry, He Jing promised to be in my group..."
"You're a model student, you won't go back on your word, right?"
He Jing met his determined yet mischievous gaze, frowned slightly, and then quietly said, "Yes, I always keep my word."
Yan Hanxi raised an eyebrow, shrugged, glanced at the crowd, and said with a bright smile, "Look..."
He Jing is biased towards him.
He Sui was about to retort, but He Jing had already looked at him and cut him off in advance: "Fourth Brother, one cannot be dishonest."
He Sui felt both aggrieved and indignant. He glared at Yan Hanxi several times before swallowing his words.
The others had no choice but to give up the idea, since no one dared to step forward and snatch the student from the school bully.
Yan Hanxi's smile deepened, and he beckoned to He Jing: "Good student, come here."
He Jing then walked towards him.
The two stood side by side, looking like a perfect couple, extremely dazzling.
Standing in the crowd, ignored and disliked, Cheng Yi felt like an ugly duckling, ashamed of herself.
At this moment, He Zhou put his hand on her shoulder and said in a low voice, "Didn't you say you wanted to bravely pursue happiness? Since that boy is someone you like, you should fight for yourself. Be generous and go for it."
As Cheng Yi opened her mouth, her voice trembled with sobs as she said, "Third Brother, I won't succeed. Yan has already agreed to team up with Sister He Jing."
He Zhou was unconvinced. So what if he got into the group? Would any guy refuse an invitation from such a wonderful girl as Cheng Yi?
He encouraged her, "Believe in yourself, you are no less capable than He Jing."
Cheng Yi's eyes were red and swollen, and she stammered, "Really...really..."
"Of course it's true."
Whether it's family background or beauty, she's now no less than He Jing, and may even be better than He Jing.
This boy looks like a noble young master; only a rich girl could be a match for him.
He Jing is no longer a rich heiress, but she is!
Perhaps it was He Zhou's encouragement that helped Cheng Yi recover from the series of setbacks. She regained her confidence and composed herself.
He Zhou is right. She is no less than He Jing in any way now. She is the real heiress.
So, she showed a reserved yet elegant smile, took a step forward, and said in a soft and innocent voice, "Yan Hanxi, can I be in your group? I'm not as brave as Sister He Jing, I'm very afraid of ghosts."
The moment he spoke, he immediately drew everyone's attention.
P.S.: I'm going on a long trip and will be back in about four days. I'll update more when I get back.
