CH 6

Early the next morning, Ruan Yingyin went downstairs for breakfast.

Ruan Xudong sat across from her. The moment she sat down, she heard him saying, “The dormitory has been arranged for you. Housekeeper Wu will pack your luggage. After you finish school today, Lao Yu will send it to you.”

The thought of living on her own from now on made Ruan Yingyin happy. But she didn’t show anything on the surface and nodded her head obediently, “Thank you, Dad.”

Ruan Xudong was still a little angry with Ruan Yingyin, so the next words he said sounded a little harsh, “Remember this, Aunt Yang and Yang Qingwei are Ruans from now on. I will only allow you some time to adapt. But you have to accept the situation, Aunt Yang is your elder, so you still have to come home on weekends to pay her respect and get along with Yang Qingwei as well. Your Aunt Yang said that she is willing to take care of you as her daughter, so you also have to accept her as your mother.”

Ruan Yingyin scooped up a spoonful of porridge and nodded at the words “Yes, Dad.”

Although Ruan Xudong was still not satisfied with Ruan Yingyin’s attitude, he couldn’t just scold her for nothing. Not being able to find any fault in her behaviour, he frowned and didn’t say anything further.

After finishing breakfast, Ruan Yingyin said to housekeeper Wu, “I have almost finished organizing all the things last night, I hope housekeeper Wu will ask Lao Yu to send me to school in the evening.”

Housekeeper Wu didn’t know about Yang Ruorou and their romantic past. She only saw Ruan Yingyin arriving from H city two years ago and now she suddenly wants to live in the school. She was worried she would not be able to take care of herself and said a few caring words.

Ruan Yingyin smiled and nodded before leaving.

Housekeeper Wu has been working in the Ruan family for more than ten years, and was usually very kind to Ruan Yingyin. However, after Yang’s mother and daughter duo arrived at Ruan’s house, housekeeper Wu was also unable to say anything.

In the book, everyone in the Ruan family, was dissatisfied with Ruan Yingyin’s spilled behaviour and all joined to Yang Ruorou and Yang Qingwei’s camp. With Yang Qingwei’s female lead’s aura, they were completely brainwashed by them.

Ruan Yingyin was planning to fight with Yang Qingwei, the female lead, but she didn’t feel the need to do so while staying in the Ruan family. The Ruan family is not important to her.

She didn’t have much sadness and anger while leaving the Ruan’s house. Her expression was as usual, she entered the classroom and took out her language textbook and started reciting it carefully.

Jiang Xingyuan, who came only halfway through the morning self-study class, frowned as he surveyed Ruan Yingyin’s expression.

In his previous life, Ruan Yingyin changed schools in the second year of high school, and it was when Ruan Xudong brought Yang’s mother and daughter into the Ruan family. And as expected of Ruan Yingyin, she was completely turned into a madwoman by them.

Because of this matter, Ruan Xudong lost face in front of his business partners. He scolded Ruan Yingyin while forgetting that almost all of the business partners of the Ruan Group today have good relationship with Ruan Yingyin’s biological mother, Li Da.

He thought that maybe Ruan Yingyin would be angry at her father and wouldn’t come to class. She would go to the Ruan Group and make a fuss just like in his previous life.

However, Ruan Yingyin not only came to school, but also looked as usual, reciting words carefully.

Jiang Xingyuan frowned tightly at the scene. Was it possible that he remembered wrongly? But his memory is excellent and by no means, he would forget such an important thing, he clearly remembered these things that had happened in his previous life clearly.

He reached out, pulled the language book out of her hand, closed it with a snap before flinging it back to her desk.

Ruan Yingyin’s hand paused for a moment and looked sideways at Jiang Xingyuan with a somewhat confused expression.

Her hair band today was still a hamster-like white ball that looked fluffy, exactly the same as the one he took away yesterday.

This hamster-like white ball was very soft and feels especially good to squeeze. Something flashed in Jiang Xingyuan’s and he couldn’t help but feel that this Ruan Yingyin has become more unpleasant.

She sat by the window, the morning sunlight fell on her which made her face look amazingly white and tender.

Jiang Xingyuan felt as if someone was scratching on his heart, he wanted to bite her white cheek, it would be better if he could bite the whole flesh from her face.

His lips were pressed together as he asked in a deep voice, “You went to dinner with your father last night?”

Ruan Yingyin nodded, she felt a little uncomfortable at his stare. The look on Jiang Xingyuan’s eyes were very fierce, as if the world’s fiercest cat was staring at her and the next second, it would jump on her and bite her to death.

Jiang Xingyuan’s eyes flashed again for a moment as he asked again, “nothing happened?”

Ruan Yingyin gently frowned, she stared back at Jiang Xingyuan in confusion.

She didn’t know why he would ask such a question, because the reborn him must know what happened.

Whatever happened yesterday wasn’t a matter that could be hidden. Sooner or later, people would know about it. So Ruan Yingyin replied honestly, “There is, during the dinner, I get to know that I have an additional stepmother and a sister. Both of them will be staying in the Ruan family from now on. Even the step sister was told to be transferred here today.”

Jiang Xingyuan looked deeply at Ruan Yingyin, he couldn’t help but be a little suspicious at her behaviour, and felt at this moment the seventeen-year-old Ruan Yingyin had changed.

In his last life, seventeen-year-old Ruan Yingyin was very bad-tempered, it was impossible for her to say such things so calmly.

In this life, seventeen-year-old Ruan Yingyin encountered the same situation, what happened previously happened with her again, but her reaction is completely different than before.

Jiang Xingyuan pupils were deep, his intuition was telling him that Ruan Yingyin was hiding some secret that he doesn’t know.

He smiled a little and said “Then congratulations. Having an additional stepmother and sister is a good thing.”

Ruan Yingyin lowered her head slightly and whispered, “It’s not good, I don’t like them, so I moved out and started living in school from today.”

Jiang Xingyuan was surprised. He wasn’t surprised that Ruan Yingyin said she moved out, but because she just explained herself. Was she someone to do that?

No.

However, the Ruan Yingyin in front of him did do just that.

Jiang Xingyuan surveyed Ruan Yingyin once more. Folding his long and slender legs and crossing his arms around his chest.

His aura was so ferocious that people couldn’t help but shudder, as if he was interrogating a prisoner.

He just stared at her and didn’t say anything.

Ruan Yingyin stole a glance at him, seeing it was time for the language class, she couldn’t care less about Jiang Xingyuan, and grabbed the closed language book from the desk and opened it again before starting reading it.

She wants to study hard and get into a good college. Now it’s her sophomore year in high school, she didn’t go to elementary or middle school, so she knows that her grades are probably not going to be very good.

But it doesn’t matter, she is very self-aware, as long as she can go to a university, even if her result is very bad, she will be satisfied.

Jiang Xingyuan’s pupils darkened as he stared at Ruan Yingyin for a long time. Not long after, he simply stood up and left the classroom.

The bell of the end of the morning reading class rang, most of the students in the class immediately fell on their desks in exhaustion.

Ruan Yingyin who was sitting in the back row felt as if a bunch of mushrooms fell on the ground.

She subconsciously started counting the mushrooms’ heads with her index finger, while her other hand was busy poking on the holes made by books to pick up a small packet of popcorn.

Jiang Xingyuan wasn’t present in the morning self-study class. He came halfway but went out again to who knows where.

Although Jiang Xingyuan was careless about his studies, he was an excellent villain. His grades are over the top, and he was even the top student in the foreign school he studied.

High school knowledge was a breeze for the reborn Jiang Xingyuan.

He had more important things to do, so he wasn’t present in the classroom very often.

Qinzhong school is lenient towards its students, and they believe in independent learning. As long as you get good grades, you can apply to not attend classes on weekdays and study at home by yourself without coming to class. The school’s committee won’t have any problem in agreeing this as long as you get a good result.

The first thing Jiang Xingyuan did after his rebirth was to get admitted to Qingzhong with good marks, which was a few points higher than Liang Yuan. He had applied for this right early on, so naturally the school teachers will not interfere with his business.

Ruan Yingyin sighed, she was a little envious of Jiang Xingyuan’s good brain and results.

The ten-minute recess time passed quickly, the mushrooms who withered a few moments ago struggled to sit up straight in the wake of the class bell.

Ruan Yingyin threw the empty plastic bag of popcorn into the trash can, and then waited for language teacher Liu Qin.

A few seconds after the bell rang, Liu Qin held the language textbook in one hand, and then walked in with Yang Qingwei.

“Students, our class will have a new female student, welcome her.”

The sleepy students of the sixth class of the second year of high school applauded a little lazily.

Yang Qingwei stood straight on the podium and introduced herself to the students.

Ruan Yingyin looks similar to her mother, Li Da. Her face is flirtatious, seductive, and sometimes overbearing.

But Yang Qingwei, on the other hand, carries the gentle and elegant air of beauty. Along with her generous behavior, she really looks like a classical beauty.

The students started gossiping among themselves the moment they saw her.

“Who is this girl?”

“I don’t know, I’ve never heard of her.”

“Yang Tong, maybe your father has an illegitimate daughter who is about the same age as you.”

“Your father has an illegitimate daughter! I’m the only one in my family.”

“Then whose family is she from?”

As they spoke, Yang Tong subconsciously looked behind at the back row.

In the morning self-study class, he heard what Ruan Yingyin and Jiang Xingyuan were talking about. They were saying that Yang Qingwei, is the daughter of Ruan Yingyin’s stepmother brought into the Ruan family, right?

If she(Yang Qingwei) were someone from the rich circle, they would have seen Yang Qingwei at least once. The children of each family basically grew up knowing the prestigious family around them and their children. If Yang Qingwei was someone from their circle, with her face and temperament, there’s no way they wouldn’t have heard about her.

As the whispering grew louder, it certainly reached the people standing on the podium. Liu Qin coughed gently, “Everyone, be quiet. Student Yang has excellent grades, she was admitted to our school by the score and transferred over from a good school. Do not speculate useless things.”

Hearing Liu Qin’s explanation, the class nodded and didn’t say anything else.

The girl who has excellent grades and good looks, they will also appreciate in their hearts.

Yang Tong, who heard Jiang Xingyuan and Ruan Yingyin in the morning couldn’t help but doubt, she was not Ruan Yingyin’s stepmother’s daughter?

There were exactly 48 students in the class, and once Yang Qingwei came, there was one less position. But just today, a male student temporarily decided to leave the country, so he left to do the procedure.

The student was at the same table as Liang Yuan, and so when he left, the seat next to Liang Yuan became vacant. Ruan Yingyin saw the situation and nodded.

In the book, the male lead and female lead were also set up to sit side by side and fell in love.

Talk about protagonists’ halo, even the author made their love road smoother.

Jiang Xingyuan is the top student in the class, while Liang Yuan is the second.

Yang Qingwei’s grades are also very good. What Teacher Liu Qin just said is correct, Yang Qingwei indeed relied on her grades to be admitted to Qinzhong.

In the book, before Jiang Xingyuan was reborn, Yang Qingwei was the one who became entangled with Liang Yuan in the first place.

Ruan Yingyin’s father just used some interpersonal connections, knowing that one of the male students in the sixth class was going abroad, he placed Yang Qingwei in Ruan Yingyin’s class.

The three of them, Jiang Xingyuan, Liang Yuan and Yang Qingwei were all the school’s top students, Ruan Yingyin felt a lot of pressure. She had no intention to have good results as them, staying on the bottom was enough for her.

The author has something to say:

The result is; Ruan Yingyin who doesn’t have a good result, has beaten the male and female lead, and also villains in the book and taken the first place!

Ruan Yingyin who was worried about her results: “Huh?”
