Chapter 399 - I Really Liked You in the Past

Chapter 399: I Really Liked You in the Past

Lin Zhouyang was stunned.

He knew that Ye Ci did not return his feelings, but they had been classmates for many years, and Ye Ci had never spoken to him in such a tone.

His heart felt like it was stuffed with a ball of wet cotton.

However, when he thought of the recent things that had happened to Ye Ci, it seemed to be understandable that she was in a bad mood.

He had seen how awful the people on the Internet had been.

“I. . . Don’t misunderstand, I’m just a little worried about you…” he said hesitantly, “Ye Ci, how long will you be taking a leave of absence?”

The college entrance exam was in three months, but the people in the class were right. With Ye Ci’s current condition, it would be difficult for her to go to a better university.

Ye Ci ignored him and turned to leave.

In the past, she might have acted gentle and generous, but now that she was going to quit school, why should she waste time on such an insignificant person?

Lin Zhouyang was very conflicted.

He could see that Ye Ci did not want to say a word to him now, but…

After all, he had secretly liked her for many years. How could he not feel uncomfortable seeing Ye Ci’s current appearance?

After a moment, he quickly followed after her.

“Ye Ci, you… If you’re unhappy and want to find someone to talk to, you can–”

Ye Ci suddenly stood still, turned around, and looked him up and down.

“Lin Zhouyang, do you want me to be happy?”

Lin Zhouyang felt that her question was a little abrupt, and he felt a little embarrassed. However, looking at Ye Ci, he still nodded his head.

“Okay.”

Ye Ci suddenly laughed.

“Okay, then you go over now and slap Ning Li a few times in front of everyone. If you do that, I’ll be happy.”

Lin Zhouyang was instantly dumbfounded.

He reacted silently for a long time before he found his voice again.

“… Ye… Ye Ci, what did you say?”

Ye Ci took a step forward.

“What? You don’t want to?”

Lin Zhouyang pursed his lips tightly.

Ye Ci sneered.

“Did you know that she secretly slipped that cheat sheet to me? It’s all because of her that I’ve become like this! If you really like me, wouldn’t you even help me with such a small thing?”

Ye Ci clearly knew that her future was ruined.

From now on, she might not even step through the gates of Yunzhou Second High School.

Since she had no scruples, she could not be bothered to pretend any longer.

Lin Zhouyang looked at her and felt that this familiar face had suddenly become extremely unfamiliar at this moment.

The notice of the National Organizing Committee had already been issued. Those things had indeed been done by Ye Ci.

Previously, he had just not wanted to believe it because he had liked Ye Ci so much.

However, it had been very clear in his heart. If the evidence wasn’t conclusive, how could there have been such a result?

He could see that she was sad, his heart also felt uncomfortable.

He had never thought that Ye Ci would actually say such a thing.

Everyone could see what Ning Li’s results were like.

She was ranked first in the country by her own ability.

All along, although she did not have a good relationship with Ye Ci, she had never done anything.

However, Ye Ci had previously deliberately led everyone to misunderstand that Ning Li was unwilling to lend her notes.

The fact was, Ning Li did not even take notes.

One by one, one by one…

Lin Zhouyang’s face was pale. After a long time, he said in a low voice,

“Ye Ci, I really liked you in the past.”

Ye Ci was stunned, then she sneered.

“If you don’t want to, then forget it.”

Then, she turned around and left.

Lin Zhouyang did not chase after her.

…

During the break.

The students had all gone to the playground to do exercises.

Seeing that there was finally no one in the teaching building, Ye Ci went up the stairs.

She came to the back door of First Class and looked inside.

The classroom was empty and there was no one in it.

Only then did Ye Ci go in. She went to her seat and packed her things.

There were a few books and a stack of papers on the table.

She took a look and found that they had been newly issued in the past few days, and most of them were the test papers that Second High School had printed themselves.

Looking at the glaring words “Yunzhou Second High School” on it, she paused for a moment before angrily crumpling them into a ball and threw them all into the garbage bin.

In the belly of the table were the miscellaneous things that she had placed inside before.

She took those things out, one by one, and stuffed them into her schoolbag.

Suddenly, she realized that something was wrong and opened the physics textbook.

On the title page, there were a few eye-piercing red words: Shameless!!!

Her heart skipped a beat, and she saw some small words written on the side.

The handwriting was different, and it had obviously been written by different people.

–The results stolen by cheating are not yours after all!

–Second High’s face has been completely humiliated by you! I feel ashamed to have had a classmate like you!

–I really misjudged you in the past!

–Get lost!

The dense handwriting seemed to form an invisible giant net that surrounded her and became tighter and tighter.

Ye Ci’s heart started to beat faster and faster. Finally, she could not help but tear that page out of the book!

Rip…

She quickly tore that page into pieces!

However, she soon discovered that there was still more on the second page!

A strong sense of unease welled up in her heart. She quickly opened up the other books, and sure enough, they were also filled with accusations and ridicule!

The hand that Ye Ci used to hold the books trembled slightly.

For a moment, she even wanted to throw all these books away!

Suddenly, however, there was a noise coming from the corridor.

Ye Ci’s heart instantly tensed up. The class break had ended! Everyone was back!

She could not care less about anything else. In a panic, she quickly stuffed everything into her school bag.

However, the more she panicked she was, the more confused she became.

The zipper of her school bag had just been pulled halfway when the back door of the classroom was pushed open.

“Hahaha! Didn’t you guys see the old class just now–”

All the voices suddenly seemed to have been put on pause and stopped abruptly.

Ye Ci’s entire body stiffened.

After a moment, someone called out.

“Ye Ci?”
