Chapter 20: Su Ying'er's Tears
Lu Yifan's cold and ruthless words instantly shattered Su Ying'er's tear glands. Su Ying'er, who had never easily shed tears before, suddenly felt a surge of grievances in her heart, and big drops of tears rolled down her cheeks. "Why? What did I do wrong? Why are you treating me like this?"
Su Ying'er's tears fell into Lu Yifan's heart, and although he clearly disliked this stinky girl, why did seeing her cry not bring him much pleasure, but instead added a hint of heartache.
He slowly loosened his grip on her hand, and for some reason, he didn't want to hold it against her that she had bitten him earlier. He was willing to let her go. He turned around, his voice still as emotionless as ever, "Ugly freak, I'll spare you today, but if there's a next time, I absolutely won't let you off!"
"Lu Yifan, I don't understand what I did wrong? Why do you have to be so annoying to me? I just want to study quietly at Shengyu Academy, I don't want to have anything to do with you. Can you please not bother me again? That day, I didn't intentionally step on your shoes, why are you being so petty? I don't have money, I can't afford to compensate for your shoes, and I won't be your maid. Do you know how hard it is to live with grandma depending on each other?"
Lu Yifan stood still, listening seriously to Su Ying'er's words. Although this dead girl had a really bad temper and never put him in her eyes, at this moment, he wasn't angry at all. He had never listened to anyone speak so seriously before. His feeling towards her seemed to have undergone a subtle change in this second. Without turning his head, he said coldly: "You're soaked from head to toe, hurry back and change your clothes!"
After finishing speaking, Lu Yifan quickly walked towards the school gate, and his tall, handsome figure soon disappeared from Su Ying'er's line of sight.
Su Ying'er sniffled, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a strong will, and suddenly caught sight of the black windbreaker draped over her shoulder. She thought back to Xiao Yao's spring-breeze-like smile, and her mood actually started to improve slowly. She told herself: "Su Ying'er, you can't cry, how could you cry? Next time, no matter what, you absolutely cannot cry again!"
When Su Ying'er changed her clothes and arrived at Sheng Yu Academy, it was just the time for class dismissal. She hurriedly rushed across the playground crowded with people and quickly walked towards the teaching building.
"Ying'er, you're here!" Guo Min came out of the classroom like a chirping sparrow, excitedly flapping her arms like a swallow. "You're so lucky, Ying'er! Do you know who gave you that jacket today?"
"I know, Xiao Yao from Class 3, Grade 3!" Su Ying'er could never forget Xiao Yao's smile that was as warm as spring breeze. It was that very smile that healed all her heartaches. She had long remembered his name in her heart - Xiao Yao!
But she also knew that even if he remembered Xiao Yao's name, Xiao Yao might not remember her. Her mood suddenly fell again.
"Ying'er, do you know who Xiao Yao is? Why don't you look happy at all?" Guo Min couldn't help but wonder when she saw Su Ying'er's worried expression. She continued to gossip on her own: "Xiao Yao and Lu Yifan are the two most popular guys in school, but their personalities are completely different. Xiao Yao has a sunny smile, and I don't know how many girls have confessed to him, but he rejected them all. However, Lu Yifan is different, I heard that his speed of changing girlfriends is super fast, but this time he and Li Jing seemed to have been together for quite a while, however, in the end Li Jing still couldn't escape being dumped."
