Xun Hanyu was not afraid of Ye Chenxuan either: "What's so great about bullying a woman?"
Ye Chenxuan had become accustomed to arrogance. Though he wouldn't physically confront girls, he still had ways of tripping them up behind the scenes.
"What, you want to fight me?"
Ye Chenxuan laughed playfully, presenting an utterly shameless demeanor.
Xun Hanyu retorted, "You think I wouldn't dare?"
He rolled up his sleeves.
Others might be afraid of Ye Chenxuan, but he wasn't.
Those in business and those in government belonged to two diverging paths. His father was the chief of police, so he did not fear the Ye Family's retribution.
Although the Ye Family was the most influential family in Jin City, they were solely engaged in business. They had to rely on those in government.
"So noisy, annoying."
Watching the two men about to start a fight, Lu Qingyi rubbed her brow in irritation.
Was she too mature or were they just too childish?
"Just 600 points? I'll take the test."
She frowned slightly, uttering it nonchalantly.
Her words were as light as the wind and clouds.
"If you don't score that much, you'll have to do what I said earlier."
Ye Chenxuan raised his eyebrows, speaking with a provocative tone.
Having their new, beautiful classmate serve him would be quite a badge of honour.
Jiayue was his goddess, and Qingyi was Jiayue's older sister. Perhaps this could lead to more opportunities for him to interact closely with Jiayue.
Lu Qingyi replied coolly: "Alright."
"Qingyi, are you going to have lunch?"
It was almost time for everyone in the classroom to leave.
Day students were going home, and those who weren't, usually went out for meals. The boarding students were heading to the cafeteria.
There were very few boarders in this school. Among the thousands of students, only a couple hundred lived on campus.
Lu Qingyi arched an eyebrow: "Are you day students?"
She looked at them indifferently.
"Yeah." Jiang Yumeng nodded.
Her home was very close to the school, so naturally she chose to be a day student.
"I live across the street from the school." Xun Hanyu said.
The police station was across from the school, and since his father was the chief of police, they had bought a house in the housing complex behind the station for convenience. It also made it easier for him to attend school.
"Oh, then you all go ahead and eat." Lu Qingyi pulled out a novel from her drawer and said casually.
Well, they weren't boarders, so they weren't in the same boat.
Jiang Yumeng blinked: "Aren't you coming with us?"
"I'm going to the cafeteria."
Lu Qingyi pulled out a meal card for the school cafeteria from her pocket and shook her head.
The meal card had been taken care of by Lu Yao the day before.
"Ah? Qingyi, you're boarding?"
Jiang Yumeng's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Lu Qingyi.
The Lu Mansion and the school were only about a ten-minute drive away. Lu Jiayue and Lu Jiahao were day students, picked up and dropped off by their chauffeur every day.
It was remarkable that Lu Qingyi, the young lady of the Lu Family, would choose to board.
She was somewhat stunned.
"Aren't you Jiayue's biological sister?"
Xun Hanyu was also somewhat puzzled.
"Given a choice, I'd wish I didn't have Jiayue as my younger sister."
For Lu Qingyi, dislike was dislike. There was no need to pretend otherwise.
Even though Jiayue appeared to be a gentle younger sister on the surface, she had laid plenty of traps for Qingyi behind her back.
Qingyi had just let her be, considering their thin blood tie.
Her grandmother had said that family should live harmoniously, 'Take a step back, and the sea and sky are wide'. As long as endurance is not yet at its limit, it can be tolerated. However, don't put up with it if it becomes unbearable.
Qingyi was holding a novel in one hand, and her phone and meal card in the other, and walked out first.
That's how she was, clear about her likes and dislikes. She wouldn't hold back her feelings about people and things she didn't like.
"Little girl not going home?"
Xu Boyan sat on a stool in the snack shop, his lips curling up into a smile as he watched the approaching girl.
Lu Qingyi went to the snack shop and picked up a lollipop: "I'm staying."
"Ready for lunch?"
Xu Boyan had investigated the girl ever since he knew her name, Lu Qingyi.
The notorious lady of the Lu Family, who had been living in the countryside with her grandma since her childhood, only returning to the Lu Mansion for one night during the New Year.
After her grandma passed away, she was taken back to the Lu Family. Her studying at First Middle School was arranged by Lu Yao.
Ignored by her father, unloved by her mother.
Kind of feel sorry for the child.
Lu Qingyi removed the wrapper and popped the lollipop into her mouth: "Mmm."
"Together? I just ordered some takeout."
With a slight smile on his face, Xu Boyan stared at the girl.
"Did you change your profession to a shopkeeper?"
Lu Qingyi looked around without seeing the boss she had met earlier. Instead, Xu Boyan sat naturally at the boss's exclusive seat.
Even if Xu Boyan didn't say anything, she could tell that this man was not simple.
The noble demeanor, the pricey outfit, the expensive wristwatch, and the even more luxurious car dressed up as a Maybach.
"Yes, the school store owner makes a lot of money." Xu Boyan replied without a change in expression.
Indeed, for ordinary people, the boss of a school snack bar does make a lot of money.
But for Xu Boyan...
He can't even afford a piece of clothing.
"Fourth brother, I got the takeout."
Excitedly, Lin Yuanhang approached, holding the food bag.
With a sigh, Xu Boyan rubbed his eyebrows: "So noisy."
Why did he bring this goof to his side?
So annoying.
"Hehe, I couldn't help it." Lin Yuanhang scratched the back of his head.
Really, it is uncomfortable to hold back.
He's always been a talkative one. Ever since he came to Jin City with Xu Boyan, he hasn't had anyone to converse freely with him and it's really distressing.
"Hey, the kid is also here? Come and eat with us, we ordered a lot."
As if just noticing Lu Qingyi, Lin Yuanhang waved his delivery bag and said.
Lu Qingyi: "..."
So, she was just standing here in vain?
She's standing so conspicuously here, and Lin Yuanhang didn't spot her until now.
Is he a fool?
She wondered if this kid was mentally challenged.
Xu Boyan covered his mouth and chuckled softly: "His eyesight is not very good."
So naive.
Feeling dejected, Lin Yuanhang unpacked the delivery box and set it on the table.
When Xu Boyan said his eyesight wasn't good, he didn't dare to object, so he just quietly set up the chopsticks and bowls.
Lu Qingyi didn't stand on ceremony either, and went straight to sit down.
"Kiddo, eat more meat."
Xu Boyan noticed that Lu Qingyi was only picking out vegetables, so he used the service chopsticks to give her a piece of meat.
Lu Qingyi stared at the piece of meat in her bowl, looking particularly tangled, hesitated for several seconds, and then finally picked it up and ate it.
She was like a herbivore, preferring vegetables and not much into meat.
For her, meat was like oil and salt, used for flavoring.
Noting that the kid didn't like meat, Xu Boyan saw through but didn't say anything.
"Ah, such a poor thing. She must have suffered a lot when she was young, she hasn't even had much meat, too pitiful."
Lin Yuanhang was looking at Lu Qingyi's expression, and he said sympathetically.
He had an idea of her pitiful situation when he learned about Lu Qingyi's identity. He had no idea she hadn't even eaten much meat.
Really, she is pitiful.
He shook his head and sighed, his full of regrets.
Lu Qingyi: "..."
She looked at Lin Yuanhang with a baffled expression.
Is there something wrong with his head?
