" Bye bye! " the little red riding hood kissed her big bad wolf farewell before sending him off to work.
" Hmm. I'll come to see you afterwards if I have time. " Jun Feng said before giving Ying Yue one last kiss on the forehead and walking away.
Ying Fan who was watching all this happen: "..." Are you guys newlyweds or what?
...
After spending some time with her boyfriend, Ying Yue felt very happy and giddy inside and felt that they had gotten much closer even though it was kind of a forced relationship at the beginning...
However, arrived at school, she got extremely shocked by how far the comedic duo took things.
On every school's billboards was a picture of the men that came to see her yesterday in which he was holding Ying Yue by her waist and walking towards a hotel together.
Obviously, it wasn't Ying Yue: it was a photoshopped picture of Ying Yue wearing her mask. But with money nowadays, Bai Chu Hua and Yu Yan could have easily found someone to take a picture of Ying Yue with a mask and perfectly photoshop it on someone's else head.
The picture was way too clear to be a paparazzi picture: it was obvious that is was planned.
Ying Yue's lip corner amusingly curved up, ' Not bad..for people like you. But if this is how you want to challenge the boss of China's mafia, then you can't even dream of it! '
After seeing taking a picture of the photo herself, Ying Yue walked away.
But before entering the class, she went to a small convenience store near the school and bought herself a throwable poncho and wore it.
Entering the class late, she caught everyone's eyes with her pale blue poncho as she sat down at the back of the class.
The moment she entered, the whole class irrupted into frenzied gossips and insults saying how she was so cheap, poor and just like a prostitute and how they didn't understand how she even got people to sleep with her when she was called ugly duck.
Today was the first day of her exams week, so everyone wasn't necessarily all focused on Ying Yue and minded more about their exam so eventually they shut up.
After finishing her exam of two hours in 45 minutes, Ying Yue still held up her pen and continued to pretend to finish her exam.
She then took out her fake glasses, prepared to work some more on the mafia's project.
But this time she was having a conference with a few of her leading engineers who were currently trying to develop a kit of weapons placed in a small and transportable box for convenience purposes.
The whole conversation was made through the virtual glasses and Ying Yue would participate by typing her opinion in the conference room's center screen.
They informed her of the progress as well as the problems they countered and Ying Yue would point out some details to be work on or some leads to fix the problems they encountered as well as some modifications to be made. The respect of her subordinates for her grew once more.
Their boss may look clueless and weak from outside but she is actually a total badass!
...
Giving back her paper 20 minutes before the end, Ying Yue casually strolled out of the classroom under the hateful glare of her classmates.
The exam was made especially tough since Ying Yue entered the school and accordingly, the time was given just enough for them to finish with a maximum of ten minutes to spare but it seems like Ying Yue never needed them.
One of them threw a ball of paper at her and a few followed, some even threw their school appliances.
The current teacher was not particularly fond of Ying Yue but didn't particularly hate her either, so she stopped the rampaging students and told them to concentrate on their exam instead.
With this, Ying Yue survived the day as it was only one exam per day. She took off her poncho and threw it in the garbage can, " Well, thank you for serving your purpose and not ruining my couple outfit, little blue poncho! "
On her way to outside, Ying Yue saw CEO dude but he simply ignored her and didn't even bother to look at her. However not bothered at all by this sudden kindness of his, by leaving her alone, Ying Yue happily skipped to the exit.
Yet, right before completely stepping outside she heard him harrumph of discontentment for some weird reason, " Ignoring me, huh? "
' Wow...! Is this dude on his periods because his mood swings are worse than girls...' Ying Yue thought inwardly but decided to leave him alone and quickly run away.
Walking out of the campus and preparing to head back to the headquarters, Ying Yue heard someone yell her name, " Ying Yue! "
" ...Well, that sounds like an angry voice...probably Lili's one..." Ying Yue guessed.
" You are the top student of the entire country and you dare make me wait ten minutes for you? " Liliane's haughty tone addressed Ying Yue.
Ying Yue turned to the girl and beamed a smile, " Lili! How are you doing? "
" Oh god! Your whatever mask is extremely hideous! Please take it off. " Liliane exclaimed in a disgusted voice.
Ying Yue dramatically rolled her eyes but still went to a near public washroom to take it off.
" So why did you wanted to see me? I am pretty sure that there are no new episodes of ' Devilish but Sweet Love ' tonight. " Ying Yue asked.
" I want to know who you are! " Liliane coldly harrumphed, her bodyguard standing at an arm's length from her.
" ...How does this concern me whether you want to know or not...?" Ying Yue innocently questioned.
"... Of course, it concerns you! I need to know what is your true identity! " Liliane retorqued.
" And what benefits do I gain for telling you? " Ying Yue crossed her arm.
" Everything you have, I have more, everything you are good at, I am better. " Ying Yue proudly stated, wanting to tease her.
" You - ! How do you know if that's true or not?! " Liliane trembled.
" Because the fact that I know who you are but you don't, proves that I am stronger than you. " Ying Yue said like a matter of fact.
" That is - " Liliane wanted to refute but Ying Yue cut her off.
" But you are the only one that can give me the one thing that I don't have. " Ying Yue smirked, " And if you give me that thing, I'll tell you my identity. "
" Fine. As long as it isn't too overboard, I will agree in exchange for your identity. " Liliane agreed, " State what you need. "
" I want...your friendship! " Ying Yue softly smiled.
" ...Huh? That's what you wanted? " Liliane demanded, dumbfounded.
" Yes! " Ying Yue nodded.
" Are you conning me? " Liliane was doubtful.
" No, you are a very funny and straightforward person so I like you very much and I want to be your friend. " Ying Yue explained.
"... Really?! " Liliane was a bit surprised but still felt kind of happy.
Since she was small, people like to cling to her but not for the good reason and she had no true friends as they said that her personality was too blunt.
" Furthermore, you already have the ability to defend yourself so that's a plus, so this proposition has some risks as well..."
Lilian gulped down as she understood her message, it basically meant that being her friend is going to come with assassinations attempts as she was probably a high ranked person...
Yet, she still loudly declared, " I still accept it! "
" Great! " Ying Yue's eyes soften, " Then let's go! I'll show you where I work! "
" You believe me just like that?!? "Liliane didn't know if this type of gullibility was good or bad, " You are not scared I reveal your identity after you tell me?!? "
Ying Yue flashed a sinister smile, " You wouldn't have the ability to. "
