âWho messed up with you?â Song Ci covered up the delight in her eyes and said intentionally, âAh, donât think about it anymore. Jiang Rui could even lock grandaunt up, not to mention you.â
You were such a fool. I had told you that you couldnât mess with Jiang Rui. Did you think that you could get close to him with Song Chunliâs support? You didnât even take a look at yourself. The one from the Baiâs was beaten by him and is still in the hospital. And you dared to give yourself in.
Song Meili didnât know that her cousin wanted to see her disgraced and complained to her hurriedly, âThe woman Rui married is called Chen Chen! You donât even know. She pretended to be a little white rabbit while she was actually so gross. She didnât let me in on purpose and flirted with Ruiâs younger brother.â
âIt is known that she has no blood relations with the Rui family. Maybe she has hooked up with Ruiâs younger brother already.â
Song Ci didnât care what she said later because she was shocked when she heard Chen Chenâs name. They had the same name? Or was it just the same person? She stood up hurriedly and said, âYou can stay here nicely these days. I have to go now.â
âAh, I havenât finished. Whatâs wrong with you?â Song Meili found something strange with her.
Song Ci paused for a minute and then shook her head, âNothing. I have a dinner date with my friends. Bye!â
She didnât want to tell Song Meili about that. It would be troublesome if the fool went to the school. If Chen Chen was really Jiang Ruiâs wife, she had to maintain a good relationship with her! The Song Family used to be powerful, but Song Ciâs father and uncles didnât join the army. After the elderly retired, the Song Familyâs military power was gradually gone. Then they simply turned to their business but were not competent as the Wen family at all.
Song Ci knew clearly about her own status. She thought, if she could get to know some of Jiang Ruiâs soldiers and marry one of them⊠she could be respected in the Song Family!
She had to find a way to get Chen Chenâs true words the next day, and see whether she was really Jiang Ruiâs wifeâŠ
Chen Chen knew nothing about it. She was rehearsing a dance with Tuan Zi. On January 1st, every kid in the kingdergarten had to perform. Tuan Zi had wanted to perform a scientific experiment, which was decided with Jiang Rui on the road.
The idea he had was to catch a frog and then dissect it to let the other kids see how many times its heart could still beat after it had been dissected. But the idea was denied by Chen Chen mercilessly.
âDo you think five-year-olds can see a corpse?â Chen Chen questioned Jiang Rui.
âItâs a frogâs corpse.â
âThat is also a corpse.â Chen Chen turned on the pad and said, âTuan Zi, letâs learn this dance!â
Jiang Rui saw it and quietly sat on the couch. Then the whole night, the sounds of âyou are my little appleâŠâ remained.
âDaddy, this dance is stupid.â When Chen Chen was away, Tuan Zi complained to Jiang Rui, âAnd I can dance but Mum canât.â
âHang on for a moment. You wonât have to dance tomorrow.â Jiang Rui touched Tuan Ziâs head.
Chen Chen went out and asked Tuan Zi to take a shower. Seeing Heizi running around her, she said proudly, âYou see, even Heizi likes dancing!â
Both Jiang Rui and Tuan Zi were unwilling to tell her the truth, that Heizi thought Chen Chen was playing with him while she jumped and danced like that.
The next day, when Chen Chen got to school, she found Song Ci was warmer to her, which made her a little uncomfortable.
âMiss Chen, do you have a boyfriend?â
Chen Chen shook her head. âNope.â
Miss Zhang who was sitting next to her heard and laughed at her, âDonât kid around. Miss Chen is too young to get married!â
Song Ci rolled her eyes at Miss Zhang, âNow many people get married at a young age because they become pregnant or something else. Right, Miss Chen?â
âAh!â Chen Chen didnât know what to say. It might cause a terrible influence if she said she was exactly like that⊠When she was hesitating, the phone rang. She stood up instantly, âIâll answer the call!â
Song Ci saw her run out and impatiently complained inside. It was so troublesome. Was she Jiang Ruiâs wife or not?
The call was from Ah Zi to ask how her teaching life was and whether she had been eaten by the students. After hanging up the phone, Chen Chen got to the diner. Although it was early, still before twelve oâclock, she wanted to have a look first.
âMiss Chen!â When she went in, she saw Haibo who was Scarâs younger brother.
Chen Chen stopped and asked, âWhy are you here?â
âI only have three classes today, so I came here early to wait for you.â Haibo passed a card to her.
Chen Chen took it over, âIs it the meal card?â
Haibo nodded. âMy brother told me that Master Jiang said you would come to the diner ahead of time to take a look, and that you definitely wouldnât know about buying a meal card.â
âHaha, you are really caring for your master.â Chen Chen took the card and continued, âLetâs go! Iâll treat you to lunch.â
The diner in the school had all the cuisines from all over the country, but Chen Chen began to miss the dishes in Jiang Ruiâs troop only after a few bites.
âIs this is the delicious food that the school promotes on the Internet?â Chen Chen pointed at the Stewed Chicken and said, âItâs so unpalatable.â
Haibo sighed and asked, âSo why do you want to eat in the diner? The food here can only fill your stomach up.â
âSenior Haibo?â A girlâs voice interrupted Chen Chenâs complaints. She lifted her head and saw a girl who was dressed in school uniform looking at her. The girlâs eyes were full of detest.
Chen Chen looked at Haibo. âIs she your girlfriend?â
âOf course not,â Haibo denied immediately. Then the girl shouted at them, âWho is she? Did you refuse me for her?â
âHuang Lili, watch your words. This is our chemistry teacher.â
Chen Chen rubbed her nose, âPlease calm down. Everyone is looking at you!â
By then, there were a lot of people in the diner. People all heard Huang Liliâs shouts and seemed to be watching a great show.
âA teacher?â Huang Lili suspiciously looked at Chen Chen.
Wang Haibo stood up with a cold face, âMiss Chen, letâs go!â
âUm⊠wouldnât it be better for you to stay?â Chen Chen blinked.
âHow could you sacrifice me?â Wang Haibo accused her with his eyesight, but Chen Chen patted on his shoulder, âYou guys can talk!â Then she went out instantly.
Huang Lili got in Wang Haiboâs way and said, âSenior, letâs go out together this weekend!â
âI donât have time.â Wang Haibo pushed her away. Huang Lili stamped her feet, âWhat do you mean? I barely manage talking to you every day. Why canât you just say yes to me for once?â
Wang Haibo felt funny and said, âWhy do I have to say yes to you? Iâve refused you since the very first time, but you keep bothering me.â
âI bothered you?â Huang Lili angrily pointed at him, âYou are just an orphan. You should be honored that I like you. YouâŠâ
âI donât need your affection,â Wang Haibo interrupted her and sharply glanced at her. âYouâre nothing in my eyes. Please stop talking to me from now on, in case I lose my appetite.â
Huang Lili used to be spoiled and wanted to hit him with much anger. However, her lifted hand was caught.
âIt is the school, not your home. It is against the rules to hit anyone.â Somehow, Chen Chen had returned and seriously looked at Huang Lili.
Wang Haibo was afraid that Huang Lili might hurt her and hurriedly stood in front. Huang Lili had already lost control. She overturned the table nearby and the dishes fell and crashed. Chen Chen screamed, covering her hand and jumping up.
Seeing a thin blood stain in Chen Chenâs hand, Wang Haibo covered his head and shouted, âItâs ruined⊠ruinedâŠâ He wanted to say that his brother would kill him and that the God of War would never admit him into his troop.
Before he could say anything, Huang Lili crazily reached for Chen Chen. Wang Haibo was so worried that he wanted to kick her. But Chen Chen caught Huang Liliâs arm and knocked her onto the ground.
The students who had been watching the show had already informed the Discipline Inspection Office. Huang Lili was taken out by some people because her neck had been hurt. However, Chen Chen didnât realize she was the criminal and dragged Wang Haibo out of the diner.
When Scar went to pick her up, they both kept silent about the event. Chen Chen quickly forgot about it. The result was that she was called to the office when she returned to school the next day.
âMiss Chen, donât be afraid. It is just the routine to ask you.â
Seeing Chen Chenâs nervous face, Headmaster Zhang comforted her, âCome on, sit down first.â He didnât know that Chen Chen was thinking that maybe Jiang Rui was right. Would she be expelled only after a few days of work?â Was I bad at teaching?
âMiss Chen, the student is still in the hosptial. Um⊠about this, we have to give her parents an explanation!â Headmaster Zhang tried to be indirect, âShe said that you started it. Can you tell me why?â
âWho was hurt? Why is it my problem?â Chen Chen widened her eyes.
Headmaster Zhang tried to stay calm and replied, âThe girl who was knocked down by you at the diner yesterday.â
âAh!â Chen Chen remembered. âI left yesterday. I didnât know she was hurt so badly.â
The door of the office was pushed open all of a sudden. A fashionably dressed woman who was on heels rushed at Chen Chen. âYou are the teacher who hurt her?â
âI havenât hurt her,â Chen Chen said, âI was protecting myself.â
The woman furiously stared at Headmaster Zhang, âSince when there is such a teacher at this school? She not only flirted with the boys at school but is also beating the students. I will accuse you if you canât give me a proper explanation today!â
âFlirting with boys?â Chen Chen noticed the sentence and nodded, âYouâre right. Your daughter did try to hook up with the boy, but was refused.â
âYouâŠâ The woman was so angry that she trembled. Headmaster instantly comforted her, âMrs Huang, sit down first. We have time to talk about it!â
Chen Chen thought she had the duty to communicate with a parent as a teacher, so she continued, âYou should tell your daughter that itâs not wrong to like a boy, but she canât humiliate him when she is refused. Besides, she was so impolite and scary. Not to mention Haibo, I wouldnât like her either if I were a boy.â
âWhat is your status? How dare you talk about my daughter like that?â Mrs. Huang suddenly stood up.
The door was pushed open again, âWhat is your status to talk about Mrs. Jiang like that!?â
Wang Haibo secretly looked inside. At the moment he felt lucky that he went to tell the truth to his brother. What was even happier for him was that Scar took him to see Jiang Rui after he knew about the whole thing and allowed him to tell the whole process to Jiang Rui.
Thus he had the first close connection with his idol⊠though there was a office table between them.
