The next day.
When Xu Xinduo went downstairs, she saw Mu Qingyao waiting for her. She couldn't help feeling awkward while eating breakfast.
After Mu Qingyao pondered for a long time, she asked Xu Xinduo: "Duoduo, shall we go to school together?"
Xu Xinduo was really not used to Mu Qingyao calling her that, but she did not refuse and nodded in agreement.
The two of them took a car to school, and on the way they received a message from Tong Yan: Should I pretend that I don’t know you?
Xu Xinduo: There’s a lot to act out. First you have to act furious and not allow me to sit next to you.
Tong Yan: ...
Xu Xinduo: Then let’s fight.
Xu Xinduo: I defeated you, and we became classmates who were united and friendly.
Tong Yan: Change the script, and choose one with a strong male lead.
Xu Xinduo: I fell in love with you at first sight and became your concubine.
Tong Yan: So, let’s have a fight.
Xu Xinduo: Okay.
The car drove to the school gate. After getting off the car, Mu Qingyao came over and took Xu Xinduo's arm. Xu Xinduo knew that Mu Qingyao was acting, and she didn't want to cooperate.
From yesterday to this morning, Mu Qingyao had plenty of time, but she never apologized to her.
She pulled her arm back indifferently and took a step back: "Okay, I'll go in first."
Mu Qingyao watched Xu Xinduo walk in, completely ignoring her face and gritting her teeth. She only restrained her expression when she noticed that there were other students around.
When Xu Xinduo walked upstairs, she noticed that the atmosphere in the school was a little different from the previous few days. When she passed by the group of girls, she heard them talking excitedly: "Tong Yan is back to school, so handsome!"
"I won first place in the Asia region in the last piano competition."
"The whole school saw it. He looked so handsome in the live broadcast."
"Hey, it's Xu Xinduo, Mu Qingyao's sister."
Then a group of girls looked at Xu Xinduo.
Xu Xinduo looked up at the railing and saw Tong Yan there.
The teaching building of Jiahua International School is designed in a U-shape. The stairs going up and down are on the inside of the U-shape. There are corridor railings outside the classrooms on each floor.
This design is more common in shopping malls, and you can see the first-floor lobby from the railings.
At this time, Tong Yan, Wei Lan, Su Wei and others were leaning against the railing at the entrance of International Class 4, chatting together.
Every time she climbed a step, she would be closer to Tong Yan.
Tong Yan also turned around at this time.
She saw Wei Lan pointing at herself, probably introducing her to Tong Yan as his new deskmate. Tong Yan turned around and looked at her, his eyes fixed on her.
The first time we met was at night.
The second meeting came and went in a hurry, and it was a rare opportunity for her to see Tong Yan's body from a third-person perspective.
Apparently, he looked like a beautiful painting just standing there casually. She has a very good body proportion and stands out more than others in school uniform.
When she walked to the classroom door, Tong Yan seemed to be in a good mood. He suddenly stopped her and asked, "Classmate, would you like some milk tea?"
Xu Xinduo looked at the malicious smile on Tong Yan's face and knew that they couldn't fight anymore, so she said, "No, thank you."
"Oh——" Tong Yan replied with a long tone, and then introduced himself, "I'm your deskmate, my name is Tong Yan."
Xu Xinduo stopped and looked at him, then nodded: "Hello."
After Xu Xinduo walked into the classroom, Wei Lan looked at Tong Yan and asked, "Isn't she pretty?"
"Didn't you send me photos a long time ago?"
"I think she doesn't look good in photos. She looks better in person." Wei Lan looked into the classroom again, making sure Xu Xinduo was seated properly before saying, "I plan to start pursuing her. I think my actions yesterday must have left a good impression on her."
Tong Yan took a sip of the Americano in his hand with a straw and replied casually: "Then I wish you good luck."
At this time, Shen Zhuhang walked out of the classroom, looking dusty and dusty, and said with a bad expression: "Wei Lan, can you talk to me alone for a few words?"
Tong Yan knew that Shen Zhuhang was here to settle accounts with Wei Lan, so he didn't say anything and just looked at Wei Lan.
Wei Lan didn't care at all. She shrugged and said, "Just say it directly."
Shen Zhuhang looked at Tong Yan, seemingly not wanting to provoke Tong Yan, but still feeling angry, so he asked, "Do you have to do this for that adopted daughter?"
"I just shared what I know. Did I distort the facts? No?"
"You'll embarrass Yaoyao and me."
"You did something unkind, and you blame others?"
Chen Zhuhang didn't want to argue with Wei Lan, he only cared about one thing: "Okay, I won't care about what happened before, you just need to tell me who told you about the bet, Lou Xu?"
Wei Lan's temper also rose. She really couldn't understand Shen Zhuhang's train of thought: "You don't care about me? Seeing Xu Xinduo being blackened like that, you didn't say anything. After being exposed, you still don't care. You really have a strange perspective. What's the point of asking who said it? Go and get another person?"
Shen Zhuhang was still confident: "She is just an adopted daughter. She shamelessly ran to the Mu family, not just for money, but also made Yaoyao suffer injustice. She deserves to be blackmailed."
When Shen Zhuhang's body was kicked out and hit the wall, he hadn't reacted to what was happening.
Wei Lan was right in front of him. Although he was angry, he didn't move. How could someone kick him? !
He looked up in surprise, and saw Tong Yan glanced at him as he walked towards the classroom, his eyes full of contempt, even disgust: "Be a human being."
After saying that, he walked into the classroom first.
Tong Yan walked into the classroom, walked towards his seat under the gaze of his classmates, and sat down on the chair calmly, not rejecting the sudden presence of someone next to him.
Wei Lan and Su Wei waited for a while before coming in, mainly because Wei Lan kicked him a few times. After coming in, he said to Tong Yan, "That kind of person really deserves a beating. I used to think he was a pretty normal person."
Tong Yan didn't talk about this anymore. After the head teacher came into the classroom and arranged morning reading, Wei Lan sat down obediently.
The sound of morning reading was lazy and drawn out, and the whole class felt listless.
Many people kept looking back secretly. Some were curious about why Tong Yan suddenly beat up Shen Zhuhang, and also curious about Tong Yan's reaction to his new deskmate. It was almost time for the first class to start and the group of students finally calmed down.
Tong Yan pretended to be calm and lowered his voice to say to Xu Xinduo: "I bought you something to eat."
Xu Xinduo looked at him, then reached into the drawer and took out a candied haws wrapped in paper. She smiled and started eating.
Tong Yan tapped his finger at his American coffee cup again: "See how hard I've worked? I told you I've tried not to sleep these past few days."
After Xu Xinduo took a look, she finally felt much better and smiled with her eyes curved.
There was a pile of books on Wei Lan's desk. He placed a small mirror on the desk so he could observe the situation behind it at any time.
He had thought it through. Tong Yan would definitely make a fuss after he arrived, so he made preparations in advance and told Tong Yan that he had a deskmate so that Tong Yan would not make too much noise.
But Tong Yan definitely doesn't like having a deskmate, and will definitely drive Xu Xinduo away. At that time, he would take advantage of the situation to mediate, appease Xu Xinduo and speak well of Tong Yan, and finally let Xu Xinduo be his deskmate.
After staring at each other for a whole morning, both of them remained calm.
Just now during the morning reading, Wei Lan didn't hear clearly what Tong Yan said, but Xu Xinduo was actually amused.
She smiled!
It’s been so many days since I transferred to this school, and this is the first time I’ve laughed like this!
Oh my god, what is going on?
After class, Xu Xinduo wrote two dates on a piece of paper and moved it in front of Tong Yan.
Tong Yan took a look, took out his phone and sent a message to Xu Xinduo on WeChat: Why are you sending me a birthday message?
Xu Xinduo: It’s my birthday too. I just noticed when I saw the screenshots in the post yesterday that Mu Qingyi and Mu Qingyao were born on the same day as you.
Tong Yan: Are you hinting that the two of us will swap places and it has something to do with birthdays?
Xu Xinduo: I don’t know, it’s just a guess.
As far as Xu Xinduo knew, her birthday was one day later than Mu Qingyi and the others.
At that time, Xu Xinduo's so-called grandmother was the Mu family's maid, who was in charge of the family. She wanted her granddaughter to enjoy wealth and glory, so she switched her granddaughter with the real daughter of the Mu family.
The newborn babies all looked alike, and the Mu family didn't notice anything at all at the time.
After that, the maid left her to Grandma Xu.
Grandma Xu's son died unexpectedly during his wife's pregnancy. Grandma Xu had to bury her young granddaughter. She originally thought that she might not be able to see her granddaughter, but unexpectedly, after giving birth, Mother Xu gave the child to her and then disappeared.
Xu Xinduo had never been taken care of by her biological mother, and her grandmother Xu's living conditions were not very good either. She could only be fed with a few meals of milk powder and porridge.
The milk powder was probably not very good, which caused Xu Xinduo's stomach to be very sensitive. If she ate something too spicy or cold, she would feel stomach discomfort.
Tong Yan: Has the maid been dealt with?
Xu Xinduo: I heard that I have reported the case, but now I am just detained and it has been classified as a civil case.
Tong Yan: Isn’t this considered human trafficking?
Xu Xinduo: The Mu family will wait for the maid to be released and then deal with it themselves. I don’t know how they will deal with it yet. They are waiting for Mu Qingyi to come back.
Tong Yan felt very puzzled when looking at his phone, and quickly typed a reply: What's going on with the Mu family? My son has to control this kind of thing?
Xu Xinduo: I heard that Mu Qingyi also found out my identity.
Tong Yan: The Mu family will die sooner or later. It's so rare that they can give birth to children like you and Mu Qingyi.
At this time, Xu Xinduo saw the message reminder, clicked it, and saw that it was sent by Lou Xu.
Lou Xu: I waited the whole night, thinking you would say something to me, but I didn’t expect you to be so quiet. I couldn’t sit still.
Xu Xinduo: Have I implicated you?
Lou Xu: I don’t care about that. Mu Qingyao wouldn’t dare to do anything to me. That little bitch, she didn't even dare to talk back when I scolded her. She only knew how to look for Mu Qingyi and Shen Zhuhang. She was nothing.
Xu Xinduo: That’s good.
Lou Xu: Are you still going to the cram school?
Xu Xinduo: Go.
Lou Xu: Yes, there is no need to be afraid of them. Shao Qinghe is a reasonable man, and he was on your side that day. Besides, Mu Qingyi will be returning to China soon, and the one-month stay as an exchange student is almost over.
Xu Xinduo asked the question again: What kind of person is Mu Qingyi?
Lou Xu: He is such a tsundere, so cute and interesting.
As a result, Tong Yan came over at this time, watched her chatting, and asked: "This is the first time I'm next to you. I realized that when you chat with me, you will chat with others and not reply to my message?"
"It's just a sudden message..."
Tong Yan was still unhappy. He moved his stool away and ignored Xu Xinduo.
Xu Xinduo lowered her head and sent a message to Tong Yan: Okay, I'll get back to you first.
Tong Yan glanced at his phone and didn't reply. In reality, he glared at Xu Xinduo and replied fiercely, "Get lost."
Tong Yan cursed in a voice that was neither too loud nor too low, and many people in the class heard it.
Wei Lan breathed a sigh of relief. This was the attitude that Tong Yan should have.
The author has something to say: In Tong Yan's eyes, everyone else is an idiot.
In Lou Xu's eyes, all good-looking people are angels.
Two extreme answers, which one should you believe?
