Chen Jing may seem to have a bad temper, but she's actually just a naive and innocent girl.
After hearing Su Rui's explanation, he wasn't so angry anymore.
"She's really something. She dislocated my shoulder. Throwing water on you was nothing. Su Rui, don't mess with Ye Zhizhou again. She's not someone we can afford to offend."
Holding the phone up with her uninjured hand, Chen Jing felt a little tired and hung up after speaking.
The phone suddenly went dead. Su Rui was startled. This seemed to be the first time Chen Jing had hung up on her without saying goodbye.
If there wasn't a class going on inside, she would have smashed her phone. Why was Chen Jing getting angry at her? It was clearly Ye Zhizhou who hit her!
Ye Zhizhou really was Ye Huaibin's daughter. She clutched her phone tightly in her hand. Ever since Ye Zhizhou transferred schools, Xu Ze had been ignoring her every day. She tried to find out Xu Ze's college application, but he refused to tell her no matter what.
Su Rui had been out for too long, so she thought for a moment and went back.
At Ning City No. 3 Middle School, almost a whole class period had passed. Ye Zhizhou had just stepped into the classroom when the bell rang.
"Ye Zhizhou, are you alright?"
It was class monitor Xu Huimin. Her ponytail was swaying back and forth, and she was obviously walking over in a hurry.
Ye Zhizhou shook his head. "It's nothing."
She was just called to the teacher's office, and almost everyone in the class saw it.
She walked past Xu Huimin and went straight to her seat. At first glance, she saw that Qin Xuan was actually doing his homework with his back straight.
That's unusual.
She couldn't help but glance at it. Qin Xuan's test paper was covered in red marks. This must have been the most recent mock exam. She hadn't participated, so it seemed he had transferred here a few days earlier than her.
It's surprising that someone as academically challenged as Qin Xuan could get into this high school; it seems Qin Xuan's family background is quite extraordinary.
She initially wanted to help him, but after thinking about it, she decided it was better to avoid trouble.
As dusk fell, the day's classes ended, and Ye Zhizhou had just casually tossed a few books into his bag when his phone rang.
"Zhouzhou, are you out of school yet? Your tutor is coming this afternoon, so remember to bring your math textbook."
This voice, both strange and familiar, made Ye Zhizhou purse her lips tightly. Her life of leisure had just begun when it was aborted by her brother, Ye Qian.
She gave a perfunctory reply and hung up the phone. She originally wanted to tell Ye Qian that she didn't need to hire a tutor for her, but that didn't fit her persona.
Ye Zhizhou turned around, took out a thick math textbook from the drawer, and squeezed it in with difficulty.
At the school gate, the family's driver was already waiting.
Ye Zhizhou got into the car skillfully and sat down; she was used to sitting in the back seat.
"Uncle Li, what brings you here? Did Brother Qian come to see me?"
The voice was sweet, and Ye Zhizhou peeked out to take a look; the person was also quite good-looking.
Driver Uncle Li replied with a smile, "Hello, Miss Shuqiong, I'm here to pick up our young lady from school."
Shu Qiong? She shares the same surname as Shu Yin. Could it be that she and Shu Yin are related?
"Is this Uncle Ye's daughter whom he just picked up? She's in the car. Would you mind giving me a ride?"
Ye Zhizhou was a little overwhelmed by the strong smell of tea. It seemed that Shu Qiong was still very hostile towards her, perhaps because her father, Ye Huaibin, was too good to her.
The main purpose was to pick up Ye Zhizhou. Regarding Shu Qiong's request, Uncle Li turned to look at Ye Zhizhou. He would only let Shu Qiong get in the car if Ye Zhizhou agreed.
"Excuse me, I'm a bit socially anxious. Ms. Shu, please take a taxi."
Ye Zhizhou simply made up an excuse to refuse Shu Qiong's request.
There's no other reason than that, if you're going to ride in the same car as someone who loves strong green tea, wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?
Uncle Li could only look at Shu Qiong apologetically, "Miss Shu Qiong, I'm sorry, our young lady doesn't like crowds."
The car window slowly closed, the car started, leaving only a trail of exhaust fumes.
Unfortunately, the car window didn't have time to reflect Shu Qiong's distorted face with anger.
"Mom, that Ye Zhizhou is too arrogant. Sure enough, she has a bad temper from all these years. I was going to teach her a lesson for you."
On the phone, Shu Qiong couldn't help but complain to Shu Yin.
When Shu Yin heard that her daughter had been wronged for standing up for her, she quickly comforted her daughter, saying, "Xiao Qiong, don't be angry. I was also quite upset by her last time. Your Uncle Ye invited us to his house for dinner tonight, so we'll talk about it then."
Ye Residence.
The advantage of living close to home is that I can get home in less than twenty minutes and Ye Qian will promptly call me to do my homework.
Ye Zhizhou sat in her room, pen in hand. Her iPad had been gathering dust in a drawer, mainly because she didn't want to see Ye Qian's face magnified endlessly anymore.
"Zhouzhou, your tutor will be here soon. Make sure you have all the test papers you don't know how to do ready."
A message from Ye Qian popped up on WeChat, and the phone screen lit up briefly.
There seemed to be some movement downstairs, so Ye Zhizhou put down his pen, closed his book, and went downstairs.
Shu Yin and her daughter walked in together with Ye Huaibin, carrying gift boxes in their hands.
Upon seeing Ye Zhizhou, Shu Yin's eyes crinkled with a smile. "Little Zhou, when you suddenly came back last time, Auntie didn't prepare any gifts for you. This is Auntie's gift for you."
Ye Huaibin was fairly satisfied with Shu Yin's performance. After all, Shu Yin was just his lover, and she had done quite well.
Ye Zhizhou calmly accepted it, saying, "Thank you."
She thought it was her tutor coming, but it turned out to be two scheming women. What a disappointment.
The group sat down, and Zhang Ma had already prepared a table full of dishes, which were quite plentiful.
Ye Zhizhou naturally went to call Grandma Ye out for dinner.
Ye Xiufang had been staying at the Ye family's house for a few days. At first, she was not used to the Ye family's wealthy life and felt uncomfortable. She even said she wanted to go back to the old house, but Ye Zhizhou persuaded her to come back.
