Wang Dongqing’s tone was cold. “It doesn’t matter.”
His desk mate was a little unaccustomed to Wang Dongqing’s indifference towards Rong Ruo. With a ‘something’s up’ expression, he said with a smile, “Actually, it’s not Rong Ruo’s fault for the misunderstanding. Didn’t you drink coffee in the past? Why did you think of drinking milk tea now?”
Wang Dongqing was rather annoyed. He did not reply and directly flipped open his textbook to read it.
He would not tell anyone that he had once queued up to buy three cups of milk tea for Su Ye in the cafeteria. The owner thought that he was a loyal fan, so he specially gave him a cup today because there was a new flavor.
That was his history of humiliation.
During the four classes in the morning, Rong Ruo had been looking for an opportunity to say ‘thank you, the milk tea was very delicious’ to Wang Dongqing. However, Wang Dongqing would go out every class break and only come back before class started.
If she did not know Wang Dongqing well, she would have thought that he was avoiding her on purpose.
During lunch break, Rong Ruo pulled Xie Minmin along and stopped Wang Dongqing. She naturally invited him, “Shall we have lunch together?”
In the past, the three of them often had lunch together. Wang Dongqing was silent for two seconds. Just as he was hesitating, he was dragged away by Xie Minmin.
History was always astonishingly similar. When the three of them were about to reach the stairs, Rong Ruo realized that she had forgotten to bring her meal card again.
She tilted her head and stuck out her tongue. “I forgot to bring my meal card again. My memory is really bad.”
Usually at times like this, Wang Dongqing would always say, ‘I’ll pay for you,’
Therefore, although Rong Ruo was complaining, her footsteps did not stop. She was still heading towards the canteen.
However, although she did not stop, Wang Dongqing stopped. He adjusted his glasses and said very calmly, “Then you can go back to the classroom to get it. We will wait for you.”
Rong Ruo’s expression was a little strange.
Fortunately, Xie minmin quickly said, “What do you mean get it? Use mine.”
She helped Rong Ruo out of the predicament.
During the meal, Rong Ruo pretended to casually tell Xie Minmin about what happened at the banquet. Of course, just like in Qi Yu’s version, she desperately demonized Su Ye.
“Damn, isn’t she shameless! In the past, I thought she was bad, but it turns out she’s still a scheming b*tch as well?!” Xie Minmin was filled with anger, just like Rong Ruo’s expected.
But strangely, Wang Dongqing did not show any expression from beginning to end, he only responded occasionally.
Could it be that he was still angry over those few WeChat messages?
Actually, Wang Dongqing was not angry, he was just completely ignoring them. For a top student with a good family background like him, he was already very arrogant, there were very few people who could catch his eye.
If Rong Ruo was more insightful, she would realize that Wang Dongqing’s attitude towards her now was the same as how he treated Xie Minmin.
She was no longer the only special person to him like before.
The three of them were just about to get up after eating when Rong Ruo’s phone rang. It was Qi Yu’s WeChat.
[Rong Ruo, while you guys are on lunch break, I’ll talk to Su Ye as well. I can’t let her bully you like this anymore.]
Rong Ruo was just about to reply ‘alright’, but before she could even type, Qi Yu sent another message.
[I know you’re definitely going to advise me not to be rash. Don’t worry, I’m just talking to her. I’m already at the entrance of your school. I just sent her a WeChat message and found out that she had blocked me. I can’t contact her, so help me get her to come down.]
Blocked? In order to attract Qi Yu’s attention, Su Ye was really full of tricks.
Rong Ruo moved her finger and replied. She first glanced at Wang Dongqing, then pulled Xie Minmin to the side and asked her to call Su Ye for her.
Xie Minmin was quite willing, but she was a little worried. “You trust Su Ye so much? You’re going to let her meet Qi Yu alone? She chased Qi Yu in the past! She might take this opportunity to go for him again…”
Rong Ruo smiled and said softly, “It’s alright, I trust Qi Yu.”
She said that she trusted Qi Yu, not Su Ye.
Xie Minmin reacted for a moment. “That’s true, it takes two to tango.”
After Xie Minmin left, Rong Ruo returned to the dining table and said to Wang Dongqing, who had been waiting for them, “Minmin needs to go to the toilet, let’s go back first.”
Wang Dongqing did not say much. He stood up and followed her back.

At the same time, Su Ye and Gu Qi had finished their meal and returned to the classroom.
Su Ye leaned back. Her slender legs were crossed under the table and rested on the chair leg of the boy at the front table.
The boy at the front table subconsciously turned his head.
What greeted his eyes was a thermos cup.
“Help me get hot water, thank you.”
The boy stood up with the Thermos Cup in his hand and could not help but complain, “You ask me to help you get hot water every day. Don’t tell me you treat me like a little brother?”
In the past, he was the one who mocked and bullied Su Ye. This semester, for some reason, he was controlled by her.
Su Ye was just about to speak when she suddenly thought of something and tilted her head to look at Gu Qi.
Gu Qi understood what she meant and whispered, “His name is Tian Chong.”
At this moment, hearing their conversation, Tian Chong’s heart started racing.
F*ck, even after being classmates for so long, she still couldn’t remember his name?
To think that he helped her fetch water and take out the trash every day!
Su Ye looked at him with a kind face. “Don’t worry, Tian Chong. I already have a little brother, and one is enough.”
Tian Chong was silent for two seconds. He seemed rather disappointed and turned to get some water.
Su Ye turned on her phone and looked at the Grandpa Goup. Then, she looked at ‘Bin Bin’, who she had added as a friend in order to keep his mouth shut last night.
This Lu Wenbin was quite strange. He was usually quite friendly, but he had become cold and aloof on the internet.
When he talked to him last night, he had replied to her word for word, which was awesome.
Su Ye put away her phone and took out the comic book from her bag. She glanced at Gu Qi who was solving the problem sets. “How much have you done?”
Gu Qi looked at the remaining pages. “I’ve done two-thirds of the math.”
“What about English?”
Gu Qi smiled. “I haven’t started doing English yet.”
Su Ye looked back at the comic book and said seriously, “Time is money.”
400,000 yuan for one textbook, and twice the prize money for textbooks.
She had to hurry…
“Yes, yes!” Gu Qi was very obedient, and she really sped up.
Tian Chong put the thermos cup filled with hot water back on Su Ye’s desk. Just as he was about to turn around, he saw the comic book.
When he saw the words ‘World Champion: Huo Jinliang’ on the cover, his eyes widened. He leaned against the back of the chair and sat back down. He said to Su Ye, “Damn! Huo Jinliang’s comic. He’s my idol! Is It any good?”
Su Ye turned another page. “It’s okay. It’s a little bit over the top.”
Tian Chong was still very excited. “You’re also his fan, right? Unfortunately, he’s already dead and has become a legend forever. Did you know, I heard that he has two…”
Before he could finish, there were two knocks on the door. A short-haired girl had one hand in her pocket and the other on the door. She had an unfriendly expression on her face.
Xie Minmin raised one of her eyebrows. “Su Ye, there’s someone looking for you at the school gate..”
