“About the night before yesterday… I’m sorry, I didn’t know about it at that time. But I promise you, nothing like this will happen again in the future.”
His words had a deeper meaning. He believed that Chu Ning could understand what he was saying.
“It’s okay. I’m fine, okay? And this has nothing to do with you. You don’t have to blame yourself.”
Chu Ning did not seem to mind. There was a debt to be repaid. Whoever provoked her, she would seek revenge on them!
“No. No matter what, this matter was my fault.” Yan Shen shook his head, his expression very serious.
Chu Ning was speechless.
She raised her head and looked at Yan Shen. “Then what are you going to do?”
Give me a large sum of compensation? Chu Ning felt that this was acceptable. If Yan Shen really wanted to give her a sum of money, she would accept it.
“From today onwards, I will accompany you to and from school every day.”
Chu Ning was still thinking about how much money Yan Shen would give her when Yan Shen suddenly said this.
“Ah? What did you say?” Chu Ning asked with an exaggerated expression.
“I said…”
“There’s no need.” Before Yan Shen could finish his sentence, Chu Ning directly answered first.
“Yan Shen, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go back to class first.” Chu Ning turned around and left, leaving Yan Shen with a cool back view.
She was not interested at all.
Chu Ning really felt that Yan Shen’s apology and behavior was completely unnecessary. First of all, he did not know. Secondly, she, Chu Ning, did not need Yan Shen to accompany her all the way to and from school… She just wanted to keep a low profile now. If she and Yan Shen were together, no matter what they did, it would be a topic that would attract a lot of attention.
She did not want the trouble!
“I am all for jokes. But you accompanying me to and from school? Do you think I don’t have enough things to do?” Chu Ning ridiculed in her heart. She did not care about Yan Shen behind her.
Not long after returning to the classroom, the morning class began again.
The last class was the class teacher, Lin Hao’s Chinese class. When the class was about to end, he cleared his throat and announced another thing.
“There are still two weeks left to the annual Dragon Boat Festival. There are a lot of programs at the festival, and it’s also a good opportunity for everyone to get to know each other. You should know that apart from learning, social communication skills are also very important. The students of Jingyuan High School should have a balanced development of moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor…”
Lin Hao said some very big words. In the past, he had only mentioned such activities in passing. It was not like today, where he specifically emphasized it with a smile on his face.
Needless to say, this had something to do with the improvement of the class performance last time.
“Everyone, don’t be shy. Participate actively. You have to bring out the vitality that you should have at this age.”
After Lin Hao finished his sentence, he glanced at Chu Ning.
The students below all knew that Lin Hao was in a very happy mood. Hence, many of them also jeered, “Class teacher, it’s not that we are not actively participating in activities. It’s just that there is too much homework.”
“That’s right, that’s right. Please tell the other teachers to reduce some homework for us. Then, we will definitely participate actively…”
“Mr. Lin is the most handsome!”
…
The originally quiet class instantly became lively, and Lin Hao did not stop them. He smiled as he looked at the students under the podium. Sometimes, the teachers were not always strict, but they also needed to be relaxed and restrained, only then would the entire class atmosphere be harmonious.
“Some of the female students in our class are very pretty. I feel that they have the ability to compete for the emcee positions. This way, they can also train their eloquence and ability to adapt on the spot.”
As soon as Lin Hao said this, many of the students instantly looked at Ye Ting.
One had to admit that Ye Ting was pretty. Moreover, after returning to the Ye family, whether it was her fashion style or makeup, she had never been lacking. Just with her looks alone, Ye Ting could really compete for the emcee position!
Ye Ting really enjoyed the gazes of her classmates. In terms of her studies, she could not compare to Chu Ning. But in terms of her looks, she was currently somewhat famous in the entire Jingyuan High School!
As for Chu Ning… Chu Ning had never deliberately dressed up, so no one had seen her with makeup on.
She would always wear two sets of school uniforms in turn, and Chu Ning herself was too lazy to put in more effort in her appearance. For her, it was fine as long as she dressed neatly and appropriately. Was it worth comparing her looks with other girls at school?
