Chapter 50 - I Want to Talk to You

Ling Rui and Wu Qi waited for Huo Xiao to leave before following him out of the coffee shop.

The two of them secretly observed for the whole night, but they did not find any abnormal relationship between Shen You and Huo Xiao.

Shen You was busy preparing for the competition, so she did not notice that Shen Jiao had not come to school for a few days.

Zhao Nan, on the other hand, finally arrived at school after missing school for three days.

Two days before the competition, Shen You was so nervous that she couldn’t control herself.

She had a problem since she was young. Whenever she was nervous, she wanted to eat.

She took a big loaf of bread and took a few bites, and then started working hard again.

.

In her previous life, she spent a lot of time chasing away all the girls around Zhao Nan.

In the end, Zhao Nan didn’t belong to her. Everything didn’t belong to her.

This time, no matter what, she had to leave something behind for herself!

Zhao Nan stared at Shen You hesitantly for a long time.

It was not until noon break that Zhao Nan walked up to Shen You. “I want to talk to you.”

Shen You replied without turning her head, “I’m not free!”

Zhao Nan’s expression instantly stiffened.

Zhu Ge walked over and placed a hand on Zhao Nan’s shoulder. “It’s best that you don’t provoke her now.”

“Those who provoke her now will not have a good ending!” Zhu Ge explained using his own personal experience.

Shen You did not pay attention to Zhu Ge’s words. Instead, she focused on eating her bread and doing the questions.

“Alright!” Zhao Nan thought for a moment before saying, “After the competition, let’s have a good talk.”

Shen You did not reply. She continued to focus on her own matters.

Zhao Nan waited for a while before leaving reluctantly. He did not know what was wrong with he himself.

Recently, Shen You’s disregard for him made Zhao Nan feel uncomfortable all over.

Ever since Shen You and Huo Xiao got closer and closer, Zhao Nan felt that it was an eyesore.

In the past, he was most annoyed by Shen You coming over from other classes every day to pester him.

Now that Shen You treated him like a stranger, Zhao Nan found it even harder to accept.

…

The national competition took place as scheduled.

Shen You, Lu Chang, and the others gathered outside the competition venue early in the morning.

As the competition this time was in a closed venue mode, except for the two media platforms that allowed recording, no one else was allowed to enter.

Shen You stood in the crowd and looked around.

She was especially nervous a few days before the competition. Now that the competition was about to start, she made up her mind instead.

Suddenly, Shen You felt a gaze at her from the crowd. She looked in that direction and met Wu Qi’s gaze.

Shen You was a little surprised. She didn’t expect Wu Qi to participate in this competition.

However, Wu Qi was here as a representative of another school.

The two of them nodded slightly at each other and then looked away.

Everyone lined up to enter the competition venue. This competition was divided into individual and team competitions.

The competition system used the elimination method.

Shen You knew that she wasn’t the strongest contestant, but being able to participate in the competition was already an eye-opener for her!

She looked around curiously at the competitors around her. As expected, she found a few scholars who had become famous at a young age in her previous life.

Shen You secretly felt excited. She also had the chance to compete with these people!

The change in Shen You’s mindset instantly made her feel much more relaxed. On the contrary, the other members of the team were all nervous at this moment.

Shen You wanted to comfort them, but she knew that nothing she said would be of any use. A person’s nervousness was not something that could be resolved with just a few words.

Suddenly, a sharp voice came from beside them, “Isn’t this Lu Chang?”

Shen You followed the voice and turned her head, only to see a girl with long, shoulder-length hair walking in Lu Chang’s direction.

Shen You glanced at Lu Chang, only to see that Lu Chang’s entire face was contorted.

“You really came to participate in the competition!” The girl giggled, sounding a little ear-piercing.

“With your level… aren’t you afraid of losing face?” The corner of the girl’s mouth curled up as she stared at Lu Chang from top to bottom.

The corner of Lu Chang’s mouth was tightly pursed. “I’ll only know what my level is after we compete!”

Shen You was secretly cheering for Lu Chang in her heart. She hated the most the type of persons who judge others!

Especially people who felt themselves superior, just by looking at them!

This person suddenly reminded Shen You of Shen Jiao.

She was also a proud favorite daughter who felt that she was superior to everyone else!

The corner of the girl’s mouth curled up slightly, and her gaze towards Lu Chang was filled with pity. “I advise you not to overestimate yourself!”

“Otherwise, when the time comes, it won’t just be you who will be embarrassed… and your that mother!” As the girl spoke, her laughter became even more arrogant.

Lu Chang’s expression instantly changed. He was about to rush up and argue with the girl, but was stopped by Shen You.
