“Do you want to hear the truth?” Jiang Fuyue asked.
Ren Xinghe hesitated. “Of course.”
“Firstly, switching groups is impossible. We won’t agree to it, and Professor Yan won’t approve it either.”
Her words were too blunt.
Blunt to the point of… hurting someone.
Ren Xinghe’s face sank suddenly. He wanted to say something, but then heard Jiang Fuyue continue.
“Secondly, I need to correct a misconception of yours. Even if you were to switch to our group, the average score would have to be recalculated based on your exam scores. I remember you haven’t scored full marks once, right? This means you would drag down the average scores for the three of us. In this situation, do you think we would agree to let you join?”
Ren Xinghe seemed to want to shift his burden onto others. Once successful, he would relieve himself of the load, leaving those who were originally relaxed in a sorry state.
“Do you think we are saints or fools?” Jiang Fuyue said with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile. But the attack in her words was not to be underestimated.
Ren Xinghe’s cheeks flushed. “If you don’t agree, then forget it. There’s no need to humiliate me!”
“In your eyes, is this humiliation? But I think I’m just speaking the truth.”
“As fellow townsmen, we all come from Lin—”
“What’s the big deal about being fellow townsmen?” Ling Xuan couldn’t take it anymore and interrupted. “Are fellow townsmen your parents? Since they’re not, why should we indulge your nonsense?”
Ren Xinghe trembled with anger.
Ling Xuan raised his eyes coldly and said slowly, “I’m tired of hearing the term ‘fellow townsmen’ from you. Can’t you come up with something new next time?”
Ren Xinghe: “…”
In the end, he slunk away like a dog that had lost its home.
Ling Xuan was still indignant. “He has such a thick skin to even consider such absurd requests. What’s going on in his head?”
Ren Xinghe was just a small episode. They rejected him, cursed at him, and then the three continued walking outside.
Ling Xuan had already called ahead to reserve a table, and the restaurant wasn’t far, just near the school.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they stepped out of the school gate, they ran into Zhong Ziang.
He was still carrying a cartoon cloth bag, undoubtedly filled with food again.
“Hey, what a coincidence! Are you guys… going out?” Zhong Ziang asked.
Ling Xuan’s face turned cold, his tone heavy. “Yes.”
Clearly not wanting to see him, their good mood was instantly dampened by half.
But Zhong Ziang seemed oblivious, chuckling a couple of times before asking again, “Where are you going?”
“To eat,” Lin Shumo replied.
“Ah! That’s perfect. I haven’t eaten either. Let’s go together!” Zhong Ziang exclaimed.
Ling Xuan’s eyebrows twitched. “Didn’t you bring food?”
“Oh, you mean this?” Zhong Ziang lifted the cloth bag in front of him and shook it deliberately. There was the sound of liquid sloshing inside. “Did you hear that? There’s no food or dishes, just a can of chicken soup. It’s drinkable, but it won’t fill you up!”
Saying this, he gave Lin Shumo a discreet look, signaling him to quickly say something to help.
“Uh… why don’t we all go together? It’ll be livelier with more people,” Lin Shumo suggested, casting a glance at Jiang Fuyue.
“That’s fine,” she nodded. “I don’t mind.”
Ling Xuan: “…” What the h*ll?
He couldn’t even stop it in time.
And so, the group of three became a group of four.
Jiang Fuyue walked in the middle, and at first glance, the combination of handsome men and beautiful women was quite eye-catching.
At the school gate, by the side of the road, there was a black Mercedes with the window half down.
Shen Qiannan withdrew his gaze, his mouth almost stretching to the back of his head. “Little junior sister is really fortunate…”
Just looking at these boys, they were already exceptional.
“What are you mumbling about?” a voice came from beside him, low, magnetic, and tinged with a hint of coldness.
“Old Xie, let me show you something interesting,” he said, gesturing towards the window.
