Chapter 264 - More Bitter than Chinese Medicine

“Yiling, why do you think life is always filled with endless homework and then endless exams? Our second monthly exams were just a while ago… And then all of a sudden, our mid-term exams are here to torment me… Why is life like this?”

When Hu Jiaojiao thought about her exam results that were coming out in the next two days, she collapsed down on her desk again.

Wang Xiangchong walked over to give Hu Jiaojiao her maths homework back. When he heard Hu Jiaojiao’s words of complaint, his expression immediately was filled with disgust:

“What’s wrong with you? Just because you can’t achieve anything in life, doesn’t mean you have to constantly complain.”

“Ughhh,” Hu Jiaojiao groaned. She didn’t move from the desk. As of now, she didn’t even have the energy to argue with Wang Xiangchong.

Then, Wang Xiangchong turned around to hand Jian Yiling’s maths homework back and said:

“A certain person better not forget the bet that they made with me. However, judging by the mistakes that you made in your maths homework, I feel like it’s better for you to admit defeat as soon as possible.”

Jian Yiling’s maths homework could be described with two words. ‘A mess’.

As soon as Wang Xiangchong finished his sentence, he waited for Jian Yiling’s reaction. He expected that Jian Yiling would be furious and frustrated with him.

However, to his disappointment, it appeared as though Jian Yiling had completely ignored him.

And thus, Wang Xiangchong said, “Well, keep pretending then.”

As Jian Yiling was ignoring him, the only thing that Wang Xiangchong could do was turn around and leave.

Hu Jiaojiao continued to ramble, “Ahhh I just want to play games. I just want to do nothing with my life. It’s not like I don’t like studying. However, I just feel like studying doesn’t like me back! It’s basically an unrequited love. Studying is that bastard of a man who doesn’t even ever look back at me in a relationship whilst I’m the one who’s desperately trying to make this relationship work. Ahh… In the end, my infatuation and hard work are useless. Why was I not aware of this? I should have just stayed away from studying…”

It seemed as though Hu Jiaojiao had been suffering from her studies lately. As a result, she was expressing her resentment towards studying as though she had gotten her heart broken by a man.

When Liu Wen heard this, she said, “Stop resenting your studies. It’s not as though you’re good at games either.”

Upon hearing this, Hu Jiaojiao was even more devastated. “Sister Wen, I think you were sent by the Gods to torment me! You’ve always been able to stab my heart with perfect precision! Now, my heart is riddled with a thousand holes. 800 were caused by you, 100 by my mum and 100 by my teacher…”

Hu Jiaojiao completely flopped down on the desk. She refused to get up.

“Jian Yiling, your brother is looking for you.”

A classmate sitting near the classroom door called out to Jian Yiling.

Jian Yiling looked towards the door.

She saw Jian Yunnao standing at the entrance. It appeared as though he was holding something in his hand and looked quite nervous.

At this moment, most of the students in the class were looking at Jian Yiling.

After the last incident, the siblings’ matter had been discussed by everyone for such a long time. And thus, until this day, everyone was still curious about the relationship between the two of them.

Under the gaze of her classmates, Jian Yiling walked to the door.

Jian Yunnao handed the gift in his hands to Jian Yiling and said: “Congratulations on completing your midterm exams.”

Jian Yunnao did not dare to look directly into Jian Yiling’s eyes.

He was scared to see hatred in her eyes.

Jian Yiling paused for a moment. In the next moment, she extended her hand to take the gift that Jian Yunnao was handing her.

“Thank you.”

The ‘thank you’ from Jian Yiling was polite and courteous.

It was so polite that Jian Yunnao couldn’t say that there was anything wrong with it.

However, he still felt that something was wrong.

Following this, Jian Yiling turned around and headed back to the classroom.

As Jian Yunnao watched Jian Yiling walk back to her seat, the feeling in his heart was bitter. In fact, it felt more bitter than the Chinese medicine he had previously taken.

He didn’t have a chance to say the words that he had prepared. Once again, all of those words were left unsaid.

Jian Yunnao hesitated at the door of Jian Yiling’s classroom for quite some time before he left again.

Previously, Jian Yiling was the supporting character who was destined to be cannon fodder. However now, with the memories of future events, Jian Yiling who had crossed into the novel transformed into a hidden big shot. Not only is Jian Yiling not interested in the male protagonist, but she also leaves the people around her in astonishment and bewilderment. Originally, her brothers hated her. Now, they were all fiercely protective of her. “Yiling gets frightened easily. Don’t scare her.” “Yiling hasn’t been to distant places. Don’t scam her.” “Yiling has a weak body. Don’t bully her.” Everyone else wanted to cry in disbelief. Are you sure that she is cute and easily bullied? Who dares to bully her! When they all thought that the Jian brothers were enough to deal with, there was another one that topped the rest. Master Sheng: “Yiling is very delicate. She shouldn’t be angered. If you make her angry, I’ll cut you up and make you into a broth!” Everyone else: “Master Sheng, I think there’s something wrong with your eyes! I recommend you to go to the ophthalmologist!”
