Chapter 9
Soon, it was time for get out of class to end. Many students, upon seeing him, ran over excitedly like dogs that had caught a whiff of his scent. Some of them were familiar with him, but more importantly, even some unfamiliar classmates came up to him, asking with concern, "Xu Wang, are you alright?"
Are you alright?
Xu Wangxin said, "I was fine before, but since you all insisted on coming over, now I'm in trouble."
He felt quite uncomfortable being surrounded by so many people. He preferred to have Jiang Yi by his side rather than just her. After all, she wasn't actually that noisy. When she was focused, she was quite absorbed in her work, and she was almost too quiet. In fact, she was quite pretty when she was quiet.
How could he think she looks good when she's quiet?
Xu Wang mocked himself for hating someone so much that it had become a problem. She wasn't pretty at all; she wasn't pretty at all.
It's so ugly.
However, compared to a girl she didn't know and who had a very casual relationship with her, who kept babbling in her ear, she suddenly felt that Jiang Yi wasn't so annoying after all.
Why.
He really is obsessed.
Soon, class resumed. In the next class, Xu Wang slowly began to listen a little bit, but he could vaguely hear people whispering behind him, discussing his leg.
"I wonder if Xu Wang's leg will allow him to stand up again?"
"It's said that he won't be able to stand up again."
"That's really pitiful."
...
It seemed like someone was gloating.
Xu Wang's face immediately darkened.
Just then, a loud thud was heard from the side. Jiang Yi had accidentally bumped her book, and it fell to the ground. The sound was quite loud, and everyone looked over immediately. Those who had been secretly gossiping about her stopped talking when they saw this.
"Th-thank you..."
Xu Wang, who was standing next to him, suddenly spoke up.
Jiang Yi turned her head, looked at him with a puzzled expression, and asked, "Why are you thanking me?"
Xu Wang paused for a moment, then said, "You're not..."
Realizing what had happened, Xu Wang then understood that he had been deluding himself. He pursed his lips, lowered his head, and remained silent.
Jiang Yi knew what he meant, and suddenly laughed, saying, "Young Master, if you want my help, it will cost extra."
"Besides, they can say whatever they want. Do you even know if your legs are okay? They don't own the school. Go ahead and be bold. If anyone criticizes you, just yell back. As long as you're tougher than them to their face, how can they possibly be tougher than you?"
Jiang Yi scoffed.
Just kidding, she's got the script for a villainous female supporting character, not some redemption story. She's not going to stand up for Xu Wang in front of her classmates.
Upon hearing her words, Xu Wang paused for a moment, then suddenly realized that her thoughts seemed to be a little more insightful than his own.
I've already lived two lives, but coming to school with a leg disability still fills me with a sense of resistance.
No, she might have lived more than one life, after all, she seems very different from her previous life.
Did she also get reborn and then repent and change her ways?
Or, a more sophisticated method?
During the rest of the class, Xu Wang's mind became extremely chaotic. One moment he felt that Jiang Yi was a completely different person, and the next he felt that Jiang Yi was still the vicious woman from his previous life, who could harm his brother at any time.
Before school ended, realizing that she had eroded his rationality, he immediately became more vigilant.
Perhaps this is precisely her brilliance in this life; in such a short time, she has already shaken his rationality. If he had trusted her even a little more, she might have killed his whole family without them even realizing it.
Therefore, he must always remain vigilant towards her.
After school, Jiang Yi packed her things, preparing to go home with Xu Wang.
Just then, Yu Zhe suddenly walked over and said to Jiang Yi with a smile, "Jiang Yi, there's a competition during the summer vacation. I wonder if you want to participate?"
Seeing Xu Wang beside him, Yu Zhe asked with concern, "How is Xu Wang?"
Jiang Yi knew that there were prize money for winning a place in the competition at No. 1 Middle School.
She herself didn't know what was going on, but anyway, after coming into this world, she seemed to have become very fond of money.
However, it's also possible that her family was never short of money in her past life, so she felt great about getting first place in everything. Although, over time, the lack of challenge made her feel bored.
Now, having money as motivation is also a good thing.
Jiang Yi put down her schoolbag, which she was packing, and asked, "What kind of competition is it?"
The girl's eyes sparkled as she spoke, her dark eyes shining brightly. Her beautiful face and fair skin were rosy and lovely.
Seeing her expression, Yu Zhe smiled and said, "It's a math competition with a pretty good prize. There might be some training involved, but don't worry about the cost. Our school is very generous in this regard; training like this doesn't require students to pay, and there are even extra rewards for winning."
No wonder so many parents are desperate to send their children to this school; the benefits are truly excellent.
"Tell me in detail."
Just as Yu Zhe was about to speak, Xu Wang, who was standing next to him, said impatiently, "Jiang Yi, I'm going back."
Jiang Yi ignored him. You see, this boy likes to act out whenever he has nothing to do, and she doesn't have time to indulge a boy who acts out all the time.
Seeing that Jiang Yi was ignoring Xu Wang, Yu Zhe continued speaking.
Xu Wang grew impatient and said, "Add more money."
Yu Zhe: ...
He looked at Jiang Yi beside him in confusion, wanting to ask what was going on, when he saw Jiang Yi smile and say, "Then, class monitor, I'll go back first. You can tell me another day."
Yu Zhe nodded, a little embarrassed, and said, "I've kept you from going back."
Jiang Yi shook her head: "No."
Then he glared at the boy next to him.
Xu Wang said, "I'm fine, my leg is already in the recovery period."
Then he rolled his eyes at Jiang Yi, feeling very aggrieved. He was the young master, and he was the one who gave her money, so why did he have to put up with her?
Because the young master was in a hurry to leave, Jiang Yi pushed him and left with his schoolbag.
As they walked out, Yu Zhe heard the boy complaining, saying, "What's there to talk about? It's just a competition, why all the fuss?"
The girl pushed him through the corridor, their shadows swept by the tall ginkgo trees next to the teaching building. Listening to his nagging, she said with dissatisfaction, "If you keep nagging, I won't push you home anymore. Let me tell you, sometimes money isn't that important to me."
The boy quickly shut up.
Yu Zhe watched the two figures walk away and gently shook his head.
Xu seems to have become much more irritable lately.
Jiang has suffered.
However, he seemed to have just said something, but I didn't hear it. It seemed to be something like that his leg was already in the recovery period.
fine.
The driver carried Xu Wang upstairs, so Jiang Yi took care of him without any effort. However, she remembered that Xu Wang hadn't gone to the toilet all day, and she suddenly asked curiously, "By the way, Xu Wang, you haven't gone to the toilet all day. Don't you feel uncomfortable?"
Xu Wang: ...
He deliberately didn't drink water all day so he wouldn't need to use the restroom, and now his throat is burning.
No, she's a girl, asking a boy if he needs to use the restroom. Doesn't she feel uncomfortable?
"None of your business."
Xu Wang turned his head to the side, his ears unconsciously turning a little red.
To be honest, Jiang Yi didn't really want to get involved, but she was just curious. She suddenly felt that this thousand yuan wasn't so easy to earn, so she said, "How about I don't take you to school tomorrow? You can have someone else take you, that way someone can help you go to the toilet."
Should someone help him into the restroom and then let a group of high school students point and whisper about him?
Xu Wang couldn't bear the thought of it and said, "I'm not coming to school tomorrow."
"Starting tomorrow, no, starting today, you will be responsible for tutoring me after school."
Jiang Yi:?
Seeing her puzzled expression, Xu Wang said, "I'll give you more money."
Jiang Yi looked at him as if he were a rich, idiot.
Xu Wang pursed his lips, thinking to himself, he wasn't stupid and rich, he just wanted to prevent her from running around after school and causing trouble for his brother.
