The students in the class looked at each other in bewilderment.
What's going on here?!
When did Chu Yang become Ah Kun's younger brother?
Did they give up studying and switch to a life of crime?
However, what happened next left them dumbfounded.
Ah Kun then took out a set of keys and handed them to Chu Yang.
“You forgot your building key this morning, so my dad asked me to bring it to you.”
"Okay, thank you." Chu Yang took the keys.
"Let's go, Brother Chu!" Ah Kun left with his underlings.
The students were left looking on incredulously.
Now that things have come to this point, who still doubts that Chu Yang really bought a building?
A whole building, holy crap!
We're still in our final year of high school, supported by our parents. We don't even know where to sell the scraps we collect.
But Chu Yang bought a building!
At this moment, Lu Peng's face was extremely pale, and he was speechless, unable to utter another word.
Wang Xiaoli felt her face burning. She finally realized that Chu Yang wasn't just poor and pretentious; he was actually rich and low-key!
Su Lingxue's expression was complicated, her gaze fixed on Chu Yang.
On the contrary, Li Qingshu appeared calm and composed, as if it were only natural for Chu Yang to have such abilities.
"See that! See that! Huh?" Han Dachun took the key from Chu Yang's hand and held it high: "Ah Kun personally handed the key to this building to my brother Yang! Do you believe me now?"
"Those of you who didn't believe me, come out one by one and line up to apologize!"
Seeing the shocked and embarrassed expressions on the faces of his classmates, Da Chun felt incredibly pleased.
Although he didn't buy the house, he was the one who spread the word. He had complete faith in Chu Yang and wouldn't allow others to slander or defame him.
"Da Chun, stop fooling around." Chu Yang snatched the keys from him.
He never intended to be so high-profile, but now everyone knows he bought a house.
When the news reached his parents, they didn't know how to explain it.
And this is really nothing to brag about for him; a bunch of kids are making a fuss about it.
"Ah, it's raining!" someone suddenly shouted.
The others didn't care whether it was really raining or not; they just took the opportunity to slip away, otherwise it would have been really awkward.
Lu Peng, in particular, shouted that he wanted to go home and collect the laundry, and ran faster than a rabbit.
"Ling Xue, shall we go?" Wang Xiaoli said.
Seeing Su Lingxue looking back every few steps, she said helplessly, "Are you really confused?"
"I know what you're thinking, but is it really too late to make amends now?"
Su Lingxue withdrew her gaze, and when she saw that Chu Yang did not leave with Li Qingshu, but instead rode away alone on his bicycle, the wrinkles between her brows smoothed out.
Her tone became lighter: "I want to try again!"
Wang Xiaoli sighed and said, "Is this what they call 'only appreciating something when it's gone'?"
"Perhaps." Though she said "perhaps," Su Lingxue's voice carried a firm conviction.
“I don’t know why, but these past few days I’ve kept thinking about how good he was in the past, and suddenly I feel really bad for him.”
“He’s always been the one making sacrifices, while I take it all for granted. I throw tantrums at him and make all sorts of demands, but he never complains.”
"We were supposed to be dating for two and a half years, but I barely even held his hand more than a few times."
"That day, he seemed to know what I was going to do and broke up with me first. I was furious."
"But thinking about it later, this was probably his last act of stubbornness. Then he gave up and never looked back."
"I think I really hurt him too deeply. He did nothing wrong. I was the one who was wrong."
"But Xiaoli, is it really too late for me to make amends?"
Tears welled up in her eyes halfway through her sentence.
Seeing her remorseful and pitiful appearance, Wang Xiaoli fell silent.
She handed him a tissue and said, "Are you really regretting it?"
Su Lingxue sniffed and slowly nodded: "Mm."
"Didn't you change your mind because he became outstanding?" Wang Xiaoli asked a probing question.
Su Lingxue opened her mouth, but couldn't answer for a moment.
Wang Xiaoli smiled slightly and said, "Chu Yang's transformation is astonishing, but compared to Li Min, he's still far behind, isn't he?"
"Li Min is a sophomore now. He is excellent in both character and academics and is the vice president of the student union of Yuebei University. The key is that he comes from a wealthy family. Take Lu Peng in our class, for example. He is a second-generation rich kid, but he is not even in the same league as Li Min!"
"I don't know what you're thinking. I admit that it's impressive that Chu Yang can afford a house now, but the price of one of Li Min's cars is equivalent to the price of his building. How is he supposed to cope with that?"
Seeing Su Lingxue remain silent, Wang Xiaoli continued, "As your good friend, of course I hope you can find the best outcome. Take my advice, you're just temporarily blinded by the illusion before you."
"Chu Yang is right in front of you, while Li Min is far away at Yuebei University. I think if they were both by your side at the same time, you might not be so conflicted."
After listening, Su Lingxue finally spoke: "Is that really true?"
Wang Xiaoli shrugged: "I'm just analyzing my point of view; it's mainly up to you to judge."
"Alright, hurry up, it's really going to rain. Let's think about it again when we get back!"
"..."
…
It's raining.
A light drizzle was falling.
However, it did not bring any coolness to the sweltering weather; instead, it made people feel damp and uncomfortable.
Chu Yang rode his bicycle home and saw a Rolls-Royce Silver Angel parked at the door.
He knew that Shen Li had come to him again to wash her hair.
The bearded bodyguard stood there like a gatekeeper, looking fierce and expressionless.
