Chapter 48: My brother’s face stinks.

Chapter 48

The magical weekend was finally over.

Later, Xiao Chen did not contact her, and likewise, Yu Na did not contact him either.

She was even afraid that he would contact her, afraid of the tiny bit of anticipation that was mixed in that fear.

It was like she was crazy.

However, it seemed like she was the only one immersed in this drama queen game, and in the end nothing happened.

Yu Na did not discover that lifetime free pass for a while.

Usually when she had nothing to do, she would just stay in her bedroom.

Everywhere else was useless.

This was the first time she had looked forward to Monday's arrival so much. Only when Monday came could she put aside all her worries and devote herself to work.

After the flag raising ceremony on Monday morning, the class continued with morning reading while Yu Na was busy in the office.

Suddenly there was a knock on the office door.

At first Yu Na did not look up, but she heard a familiar voice - Qiao Rui greeted Wang Li who was in the office with her.

Then he walked straight up to Yu Na.

"Teacher Yu."

"......"

Seeing Qiao Rui, that extreme sense of embarrassment that had been bothering her struck again.

She cleared her throat and acted as if nothing had happened.

And Qiao Rui had come to talk about proper business, still holding a notebook in his hand. ViiSiit novelbi/n(.)c/(o)m for latest novels

"I want to apologize to you."

"What for?"

"I didn't do the dictation homework yesterday."

"Oh?" she asked, "Why?"

"My brother doesn't care about me and lets me do whatever I want."

He looked very innocent, not like he was pretending at all.

When Yu Na heard this, her brain froze for two seconds.

She asked mechanically, "Why, why?"

"I don't know," Qiao Rui said pitifully, "I wanted to study, but he was in a bad mood. From the time he got home until this morning, he had a long face."

"......??"

Could it be related to her?

No way...!

Yu Na closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and sent off that sentence.

Oh well. Let bygones be bygones. Nobody is nobler than anyone else here!

Even if they had to part ways over this, so be it.

Xiao Chen replied very quickly:

1: 【I was too busy yesterday, no time. Will make up for it tonight】

Yu Na: 【No need, he already made it up, but you need to supervise his dictation next weekend. With Qiao Rui's level, memorizing vocabulary is the most critical step to improving his grades】

1: 【OK】

"......"

Yu Na tentatively sent another message:【I heard you were in a bad mood......】

1:【A little】

Yu Na still sent out that sentence:【Because of me?】

No.

Please no.

But with his personality, he would surely deny it. Xiao Chen was the kind of person who buried things inside and rarely told others his troubles, he digested them himself.

But this guess was immediately proven wrong.

1:【What do you think?】

Yu Na: "......"

His ambiguous response made her cheeks burn.

She could even sense Xiao Chen's facial expression through the screen.

Embarrassment mixed with contempt - he was probably cursing her as shameless.

Yu Na knew she was in the wrong, and patiently replied: 【Let me buy you a meal, OK?】

Yu Na: 【To thank you for taking care of me that night】

1:【OK】

1:【But I've been very busy recently】

Yu Na's heart sank, and she replied:【No problem, find me whenever you have time】

Yu Na: 【But best if it's on the weekend, I'm at the school in the evenings Mon-Thurs】

1:【OK】

She thought the matter was settled with that.

The usual and most common way to repay someone was to treat them to a meal - one meal to dissolve ill feelings.

But plans could not keep up with changes, and something unexpected came even faster than this invitation.
