When she saw Shi Xiaoya beside Han Zhuoling, she immediately felt dreadful.
She never expected Shi Xiaoya to be on such good terms with Lu Man that she could sit directly beside Han Zhuoling!
Lu Man never had a good impression of Jiang Yuhan, and she needn’t force herself to smile for people she disliked now.
It’s alright if they said she was arrogant or she was just clinging to Han Zhuoli.
Since she *was* relying on Han Zhuoli!
Hence, Lu Man only nodded coolly and politely to Jiang Yuhan. “Ms. Jiang.”
Despite being someone who relished others calling her “Teacher Jiang,” she didn’t have any objections this time around.
As for Han Zhuoling and Han Zhuoli, both totally ignored her greetings.
Han Zhuoli still remembered the issue of Jiang Yuhan bullying Lu Man!
Though she didn’t succeed, that didn’t mean Jiang Yuhan never made the attempt.
Han Zhuoli didn’t bother giving her due respect.
Han Zhuoling, on the other hand, was someone reserved who was never interested in these matters.
So he ignored Jiang Yuhan, even if he didn’t know about the conflict between Shi Xiaoya and Jiang Yuhan at the backstage just now.
Jiang Yuhan didn’t dare to put on airs in front of Han Zhuoling and Han Zhuoli, so she smiled and said, “Then I’ll be going.”
The two men paid no attention to her. It was only Lu Man who replied politely, “Take care.”
Ma Xianghuan and Lian Fang were both sent back personally by cars dispatched by the school.
Shao Yuqi and the others also went with their own cars and chauffeurs.
Everyone said their farewells, and Shao Yuqi said to Lu Man, smiling, “Let’s work together next time.”
“I’m anticipating it. I hope I’ll have the honor.” Lu Man beamed.
Then, only Han Zhuoli, Lu Man, Shi Xiaoya, and Han Zhuoling were left.
Han Zhuoli told Han Zhuoling, “We’ll be going first, Brother.”
Afraid that Han Zhuoling would really leave Shi Xiaoya alone, Lu Man quickly instructed, “Big Brother, do send Xiaoya home.”
Shi Xiaoya rejected the offer. “I’ll just let my company car send me home.”
“Why trouble yourself to wait when my big brother’s car is already here?” Han Zhuoli raised his brow at Han Zhuoling.
Han Zhuoling said cooperatively, “Yes.”
Lu Man grinned and waved at Han Zhuoling and Shi Xiaoya, “Thank you, Brother!”
With that, the couple left hurriedly, as if afraid Han Zhuoling would regret his decision.
Thus, only Shi Xiaoya and Han Zhuoling were left.
Because they had fought previously, the awkwardness wasn’t easily waved away even if she had forgiven him.
Shi Xiaoya gritted her teeth and said, “Young Master Ling, I can leave by myself if you’re busy. It’s easy calling a cab or waiting for my company car.”
“I’m fine,” Han Zhuoling replied. “I already said I’ll send you home and promised Zhuoli and Lu Man. You wish me to go back on my word?”
Shi Xiaoya quickly waved. “Oh no, that’s not what I meant!”
She was almost wronged. How could she dare to?!
“The car is parked in the school parking lot. Wait here, I’ll drive over,” Han Zhuoling said.
Before Shi Xiaoya could say that she wanted to go with him to the parking lot, Han Zhuoling already left.
Shi Xiaoya could only wait, feeling especially embarrassed. It’s as if she was a big shot and even the first young master of the Han Family had to drive over for her.
Shi Xiaoya looked on as Han Zhuoling walked farther and farther away while she waited silently there.
The weather was cold, especially at night.
Shi Xiaoya was wearing only a thick coat today, one from the famous luxury brand known for its basic style.
