Chapter 13
Shen Jun was not accustomed to living with others, and his grandfather did not grant him any special privileges to have a dorm room all to himself. Therefore, he had no choice but to sleep on his stomach in the classroom. Fortunately, the classroom was quiet enough.
There were only two people in Class Two at noon that day. After reading for a while, Wen Nian saw Shen Jun lying on the desk and sleeping. Although she was a little curious, she did not pry into other people’s business. The atmosphere between the two of them was very peaceful.
The lunch break lasted two and a half hours. After the first afternoon period, Huang Yue returned to her seat with red eyes, but didn’t look for Wen Nian for the rest of the afternoon. She didn’t even eat dinner and just sat in her seat with a blank expression. However, Wen Nian didn’t pay any attention to her as she was on a tight schedule.
Li Fang entered the classroom during the evening reading session and cast a glance at the students who were reciting ancient Chinese poems. She gently knocked on the blackboard with her index finger joint, prompting the students to stop reciting and direct their attention to the podium.
Li Fang said with a straight face, “I don’t know what some people are thinking, but they are causing their classmates to drop out of school. If I catch anyone doing this again, it won’t be as simple as calling their parents! You’ve studied hard for over a decade. In less than two years, you’ll see the fruits of your labor. Whether you’re aiming to become rich or famous, put those thoughts away for now! When you get to university and see more of the world, then you can make an informed decision. You only have one life, so don’t make any choices that you’ll regret for the rest of your life.”
After saying such harsh words, Li Fang decided to comfort the students. Her expression softened, and her tone became much gentler. She even looked specifically at Wen Nian. “Lastly, if there’s anything, communicate more with your parents and teachers. It’s inevitable to make a biased judgment alone. No matter what, listening to the advice of your elders might bring you new ideas. Alright, let’s continue studying.”
After Li Fang left, the class immediately began to discuss animatedly. They were very curious about who Li Fang was referring to when she mentioned someone who made people drop out of school. However, since there were only three people in the class during lunchtime, Wen Nian smiled meaningfully and didn’t say anything. Shen Jun also kept quiet. Even after several guesses, they still couldn’t figure out who it was, and so they stopped talking about it. Huang Yue was so scared that her back went numb.
Wen Nian knew Li Fang’s good intentions, but no matter what she said, it was better to express her attitude with actions. She calmed down and continued to read English.
Shen Jun had already completed self-studying the high school curriculum in advance, so he spent his time in class reading books that he was interested in. The class teacher had been informed in advance and was aware of his capabilities, so he turned a blind eye to his lack of engagement in class work.
Wen Nian paused to take a sip of water when she saw Shen Jun engrossed in reading an English book on his desk. contemporary romance
The two desks were close to each other, and Wen Nian couldn’t help but see Shen Jun’s book. She took a few glances and saw all sorts of unfamiliar words. She was dumbfounded, but she could already vaguely feel that there might be a genius sitting beside her!
Seeing Shen Jun’s focused expression, Wen Nian felt too embarrassed to disturb him. She retracted her attention and continued with her own studying plan.
When the bell rang for the end of the evening self-study class, Wen Nian packed her things and went downstairs to get her car without looking back. She completely ignored the resentful gaze that Huang Yue threw at her from the chair.
Noticing that it was difficult to control Wen Nian, Huang Yue started to panic. She didn’t know what had gone wrong, but she decided to give Wen Nian the cold shoulder for a couple of days and try to sort things out on her own.
Huang Yue packed her bag wearily. Fortunately, she didn’t have to ask both of her parents to come today. In the end, it was her mother who came. The incident today had embarrassed her, and she knew she would definitely be scolded when she returned home.
As Huang Yue didn’t cause any trouble, Wen Nian had a few days of peace.
On the other side, Wei Xiao was also on a plane to America.
“You’re a student, right? Aiyo, children these days are so lucky. You can go overseas to see the world at such a young age.”
Wei Xiao glanced at the man who was trying to start a conversation with him. The man was wearing a red hat with the words “Oriental Travel Agency” on it, and a cheap yellow T-shirt. Seeing this, Wei Xiao was no longer in the mood to talk..
“I saved up some money to travel. I’m 26 years old, but this is my first time flying. I’m a little nervous. What about you? How many times have you flown?”
When Wei Xiao heard the man’s words, he let out a sigh and felt quite unlucky. He realized he had to sit next to a person he deemed a “country bumpkin.” He took out an eye mask from his backpack and put it on, hoping that his action would convey his disinterest in continuing the conversation.
When the man saw Wei Xiao looking down on him, he rolled his eyes angrily.
