In the Year 3 Class 6.
Three girls sat close, each holding a book in their hands.
The girl with short hair and glasses couldn’t help but place her hand on the shoulder of the girl in the front row, who had her hair tied in a ponytail.
She lowered her voice and said, “Qianju, did you see those two girls from Class 5 at the door just now? I suspect they were deliberately watching you!”
Wu Qianju’s eyes flashed with annoyance as she replied, “Remove the suspicion, they are probably planning how to retaliate against me.”
Upon hearing the word ‘retaliate,’ the girl with short hair frowned and immediately defended her, “No way, you didn’t do anything wrong! It’s clear that they violated the school rules by dating, so why should they retaliate against you? Qianju, I don’t even know why you like that expressionless guy so much; he hasn’t smiled in all three years of high school…”
“Don’t talk about it, I’m annoyed.” Wu Qianju turned her head away, pouting in frustration, refusing to speak further.
So she didn’t see the girl in the back seat having a hint of schadenfreude in her eyes behind her glasses.
The girl with short hair lowered her head and flipped through her books, thinking, Hmph, just because she’s called the class flower for being pretty, she thinks she’s so special. She always loses her temper so easily, she doesn’t treat us like friends at all. It’s no wonder the guy in the next class isn’t interested in her!
Wu Qianju stared at her textbook but couldn’t concentrate at all. In her heart, she actually regretted it. She blamed herself for being too confident.
She thought that with so many boys pursuing her because they liked her, there was no way a guy wouldn’t notice her qualities. And some boys who already had girlfriends would still fall for her charm, so she was confident that she could make the guy in the next class like her.
But the result…
She was rejected so miserably; she had never been so embarrassed in her life.
After seeing that there was no hope at all, she anonymously sent a report to the school authorities out of anger.
But she never expected that the two people she reported would get away with everything.
It made her look like a clown jumping around aimlessly.
Hmph, she has her own pride too; she wasn’t afraid of others’ revenge, and she would never bow down to them!
However, even after high school graduation, Wu Qianju never received any retaliation from anyone.
It was only then that she suddenly realized that in the eyes of others, she was just a forgettable person.
That summer, Wu Qianju, who hadn’t performed well in the college entrance exams, chose to retake the exams and start her life anew.
When Shi Chao received his college acceptance letter, he was washing dishes alone in the kitchen.
Since Zhao Fen had said that he would be responsible for washing the dishes from then on, he had been doing it diligently every day from the next day onwards.
But today, Zhao Fen wasn’t at home.
In the living room, only Lu Lili and Shi Yan were opening mail packages.
When the college entrance exam scores came out and Zhao Fen saw that Lu Lili had done well, she confessed to Lu Lili that she already had a suitable partner for remarriage.
She had kept it a secret from Lu Lili to avoid affecting Lu Lili’s performance in the exams.
Upon hearing this, Lu Lili hugged her and said, “Thank you, Mom. I’m already an adult now, fully capable of taking care of myself. You can pursue your own happiness without worry! I trust your judgment, and I wish you and your fiancé all the best!”
Remarrying after a divorce was quite normal, and it didn’t affect Lu Lili’s mood for the college entrance exams at all.
She heard that her Dad, who lived in another city, had already gone on blind dates and remarried within half a year of the divorce.
When compared to that, Zhao Fen’s relationship seemed like it was after a long time.
Nowadays, Zhao Fen and her fiancé had gone abroad to take pre-wedding photos, and their wedding date was probably approaching soon.
