After the end of the games, the punk boy went to look for Ye Xi. As usual Ye Xi told him: Get top ten in class.
Dispirited, the punk boy left.
After Ye Xi said goodbye to An Mudie, she packed up her stuff and left the school.
People in S High were all standing by the road, waiting for their bus.
Ye Xi saw the punk boy getting into a luxurious car, and he saw her too.
Ye Xi smiled at him and the punk boy grinned back at her. He waved his hand, looking rather happy.
Then, the car began to move, and he left.
After bidding farewell to the boy, Ye Xi headed to the mobile shop. The clerk told her that her phone’s repairs were done, just that her sim card could not be used and needed to be replaced with a new one.
Ye Xi froze. She didn’t know whether Zhazha could still call her if the sim card was gone.
The clerk thought she was worried about losing the numbers in her phone, so she said, “All your contacts are stored inside your phone. You won’t lose them even if you change your phone number, so don’t worry.”
“Oh.” Ye Xi responded. She bought a new sim card and left.
Ye Xi went out of the store and walked to the side of the road to hail a cab.
She wanted to go home.
On the way to the sports festival, Ye Xi realized that she seemed to have obtained the protagonist’s aura. In that case, wouldn’t she be seeking death if she continued staying in the school where the story revolved around?
And thus, Ye Xi decided to go home immediately!
Though, she still felt a little reluctance.
On the way back, Ye Xi thought about everything that happened while she was here. The more she thought about it, the more she felt stupid and blind. To think that she ignored so many important details.
Whether it was how she bumped into Wei Shenglan from time to time, or how it seemed like he and An Mudie rarely intersected, and also how An Mudie seemed to be asking her every day whether anything happened between her and Wei Shenglan, all of that was abnormal!
Even her bowels were getting sore with regret. If she had known early on then she would have transferred schools again, then she wouldn’t have to run back home as if she was trying to escape.
Ye Xi sighed. She had nothing to say to her stupid self and she didn’t want to think about it anymore, it just made her sad.
She had been sitting in the car for four hours, but the traffic was death itself.
Ye Xi paid and entered the microdistrict.
All the people living here were rich. It was inevitable.
From time to time, Ye Xi would meet a few people she was familiar with but didn’t quite know. She greeted all of them and walked for a long time before finally reaching the front yard of her home.
Before Ye Xi could enter the house, the door opened by itself. The steward bowed slightly forward, saying, “Welcome back, Miss.”
Ye Xi nodded and entered the house.
When her parents saw her, they were surprised for a moment before running to her and giving her a bear hug.
When Ye Xi saw her mother’s belly, she asked, “You guys are having another baby?”
Mother Ye smiled bashfully. “Didn’t you see our feed? It’s going to be a girl!”
Ye Xi: …No wonder Wei Shengliu knew her mother was having a third baby.
Ye Xi spoke a little with her two elders and went upstairs to sleep.
During the night, Zhazha called Ye Xi and the two had a quick chat before hanging up.
From this, Ye Xi came to the conclusion that Zhazha didn’t need to call her by a special card. Maybe she could even change her phone. She was like a fixed entity. Anytime Zhazha called, she would directly reach the phone she currently owned.
