That was why she could say such prideful words… ‘they’re pining over someone else’s boyfriend’.
“Bai Jing, why are you still standing there?” Su Yue asked. She was already sitting down at her seat. She frowned in confusion when she saw Bai Jing still standing there.
Bai Jing cleared her thoughts and shook her head. “Nothing.”
She walked over and sat down.
The entire canteen was focused on both of them.
Su Yue put down the books in her hand and said, “What do you want to eat? I’ll go get it.”
Bai Jing plainly replied, “I’ll have whatever you’re getting.”
“Okay.” Su Yue smiled and nodded before walking over to the economical rice stall.
She ignored all the gazes upon her and ordered the food before returning to her seat, still composed.
Su Yue had always been like this. She didn’t bother about the things she didn’t care about. She acted as if nothing affected her.
But Bai Jing was different. She glanced around as she ate.
She felt like everyone was giving her contemptuous and mocking gazes.
After lunch, Su Yue went for lessons while Bai Jing returned to the dormitory.
Su Yue fell asleep during lessons because of her lack of sleep the night before.
“Su Yue!”
“Su Yue!”
In the midst of her dream, she heard someone calling her name a few times. She suddenly opened her eyes.
All eyes were on her, and she looked at the rostrum.
The teacher was looking at her, too.
Su Yue was instantly rejuvenated. “Teacher, did you call me?”
“Yes.” The teacher nodded before adjusting his spectacles. With his other hand, he pointed at Su Yue, gritting his teeth. “Su Yue, I’ve been putting up with you for very long.”
She slept in every lesson. Incorrigible.
Su Yue knew what he was referring to. Without batting an eyelid, she replied, “Teacher, actually you don’t have to. You can always chase me out of the classroom.”
Because she couldn’t understand a single thing he said no matter how hard she tried.
The teacher almost spat blood.
“I’m going straight to Jiao Chen,” he huffed, helpless.
It confused Su Yue. “Why are you going to him?”
He angrily replied, “You didn’t have a good night’s sleep and dozed off in my class. Isn’t it his fault?”
“Pfft!”
The majority of the class laughed at his comment. Only Su Yue blinked, not understanding his words.
Su Yue was always alone if she wasn’t together with Bai Jing. She was alone before and after lessons. She hugged her textbooks and left together with a bunch of students.
When she walked down the stairs, a handsome boy was standing under a tree at the end of the walkway. He was in a pale-colored casual wear, and he had tucked his hands into his pockets. His lips curled into a smile when he saw Su Yue.
“Jiaojiao,” Su Yue greeted, speeding up her pace. “Were you waiting for me?”
What else? Standing there for fun?
Jiao Chen pressed his lips together in response. He then asked, “Have you eaten breakfast?”
Su Yue nodded. “Yes.”
Both of them chatted as they walked.
“Oh yes, Teacher Zheng said he wants to look for you,” Su Yue said, suddenly recalling the classroom incident.
Jiao Chen frowned in confusion. “What for?”
Su Yue pursed her lips. “I dozed off in his class so he said that he was going to look for you because it was your fault. I don’t know what logic that is.”
