“Fourth Brother, you’re thinking too much. Why would I scare you for no reason? I really do have this habit. It’s just that today’s situation is a little special. I need to… I need to wake up early to watch the sunrise.”
Chu Ning hurriedly came up with an excuse.
“You’re holding a grudge against me because of what happened last night. You want to take revenge on me!” Chu Huan refused to let it go.
“Think whatever you want. I’m going out to watch the sunrise. Fourth Brother, go and do your business.”
Chu Ning couldn’t be bothered to explain. She felt that it was very difficult to explain things to someone like Chu Huan who already had a prejudice against her.
She picked up her already-packed schoolbag and put on her shoes. Under Chu Huan’s flabbergasted gawp, she opened the door of the living room and left.
Chu Huan rubbed his eyes again. He looked at the clock in the living room. The time indicated that it was 4:30 in the morning.
If Chu Ning really went to watch the sunrise, it was an acceptable reason. Otherwise, there must be something wrong with her brain.
“Oh my god… What kind of terrifying opponent did Xiao Ting provoke?” Chu Huan’s mouth was wide open. He could not imagine nor could he understand the logic of Chu Ning’s actions.
Chu Ning carried her schoolbag and slowly approached her Rolls-Royce under the dim streetlights.
When she sat in the driver’s seat and started the engine, the two headlights were like two sharp blades that sliced through the darkness and shot into the distance.
The entire neighborhood was silent. Chu Ning slowly drove out of the neighborhood. Then, the foot on the accelerator pedal seemed to have a mind of its own and slowly pressed downwards, with no intention of stopping.
The black Rolls-Royce ran freely on the wide and empty road. It was like a black arrow that left the bow as it flew in the direction of Jingyuan High School.
Chu Ning chose another main route and drove as fast as she could within the speed limit just to get rid of her drowsiness…
Originally, Chu Ning would take about forty minutes to reach school by taxi, but when she drove herself, it took less than twenty minutes.
There was a large lake not far from Jingyuan High School. The community where Chu Ning’s villa was located at was southeast of this lake.
Chu Ning parked the car and then got into the spacious backseat. She opened the window and quietly enjoyed the beautiful scenery for a while, before falling asleep once more.
When the first rays of sunlight shone on her fair and flawless face, there were already many morning joggers exercising. Chu Ning glanced at the time. It was already seven o’clock in the morning. Jingyuan High School’s first class started at eight o’clock. Chu Ning could now still have breakfast before leisurely walking to school.
As for driving her Rolls-Royce into school, it was not impossible, but the consequences that would follow would be unbearable for her.
Chu Ning did not want to be high-profile currently. This would easily cause people who were jealous of her to target her in advance, especially since she had not developed her own career yet.
She also felt that it was not very good for a Year Two student to drive into school, especially since the car was a Rolls-Royce. She was going to school to study, not to make investments as an investor.
“Let’s have breakfast first.” Chu Ning pushed open the car door, locked the car, and stretched comfortably.
She walked cheerily to the nearby breakfast shop. As she walked, she felt a little puzzled.
“Strange, I feel like I’ve forgotten something.”
Chu Ning had a vague feeling that something was amiss, but she couldn’t recall it at the moment.
This strange feeling continued till she had finished her meal and was about to reach the school gate. It suddenly came to her.
“Oh no, that silly boy Yan Shen is probably still waiting for me at the gate of my neighborhood.” Chu Ning finally thought of it.
However, it was already 7:40 am, and there was only about ten minutes before class started.
Yan Shen was destined to be late, and this would be the first time he had been late since he started school.
At the same time.
Yan Shen’s private car was still quietly parked not far from Chu Ning’s house.
Yan Shen’s gaze was calm. He was waiting for Chu Ning as usual, without the slightest hint of impatience.
Meanwhile, his chauffeur had been observing Yan Shen’s expression through the rearview mirror a few times. When he saw Yan Shen’s expression, he hesitated a few times but did not say anything.
At this moment, Yan Shen’s phone suddenly rang.
Yan Shen took out his phone. He was a little surprised when he saw who the caller was. This was the first time Chu Ning had called him.
“Hello. What’s the matter?” Yan Shen’s cold and magnetic voice was transmitted through the phone to Chu Ning.
“Yan Shen, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I had something to do this morning, so I drove myself to the school. I forgot to tell you as I was in a hurry. Come quickly to school.”
Chu Ning said helplessly.
