Gu Yin smiled. “Jinyang, it’s been a while.”
ng Jinyang gave a faint smile. “Yinyin.”
Gu Yin looked ng Jinyang over. “Jinyang, I didn’t expect to be able to see you again. I thought after what happened, I wouldn’t ever see you again. How’s your health?”
ng Jinyang stiffened suddenly and her complexion imdiately paled.
The girl from Class One asked, “What’s the matter?”
ng Jinyang squeezed her hands, her whole body shaking uncontrollably.
“That’s...” Gu Yin paused and looked at ng Jinyang. Even the girl’s eyes were trembling and she seed like she was about to break down. Gu Yin broke out a chuckle, “Why are you so gossipy? We used to live in the sa area. After she moved away, she and my sister transferred to this school and that’s when I t her.”
The fact that Gu Mang was Gu Yin’s sister was well known across the cohort after boys from Class One had spread the news.
“Ohhh,” the girls in Class One exclaid, and they said jokingly, “Yinyin, it seems very strange to how your sister ranked last on the exam. Are you two really sisters?”
Gu Yin smiled and shook her head. “Nonsense, my sister just doesn’t like studying.”
“Hehe. She already ranked last. What difference does it make whether she likes studying or not?”
“Sigh, ng Jinyang. You’re the highest scorer in our year, why don’t you transfer to our class? Don’t let Gu Mang influence you.”
The girls’ smiles were particularly unpleasant in ng Jinyang’s eyes.
ng Jinyang bit her lip, her face pale as she walked around the girls, and headed upstairs.
There was an evil gleam in Gu Yin’s eyes. Her body swayed suddenly and she fell backward, instinctively grabbing onto ng Jinyang’s waist.
ng Jinyang was shocked as there was a strong pull at her waist. She grabbed the railing frantically to steady herself.
Gu Yin fell and landed on the stairs. She looked up apologetically at ng Jinyang. “Jinyang, I’m sorry. I lost my balance. I didn’t touch your ostomy bag, did I?”
ng Jinyang’s turned pale instantly. She pushed Gu Yin away and ran upstairs as though she were running for her life.
Puzzled, the other girls asked, “What ostomy bag? Yinyin, what are you talking about?”
Watching as ng Jinyang fled in a hurry, Gu Yin laughed, “It’s nothing. Let’s go buy sothing to eat, I’ll treat.”
The conversation imdiately switched to another topic.
“I want to drink popping pearl milk tea.”
“I want potato chips and fried chicken nuggets.”
“I want...”
...
ng Jinyang ran into the teachers’ bathroom. There was no one inside.
She stood in front of the sink, breathing heavily. She looked up slowly at the mirror.
Her face was ghostly white and her eyes were red with fear.
mories from many years ago ca back to her. She was ruthlessly dragged into a blind alley by a middle-aged man. ng Jinyang staggered backward. She shuddered and hugged herself tightly, tears falling from her eyes.
She clenched her teeth forcefully, restraining herself from crying and she slowly squatted down, clutching her head.
Shortly after, her mood stabilized.
She stood up as though nothing had happened and went to wash her face.
Facing the mirror, she adjusted her expression and walked out slowly.
ng Jinyang handed the things over to Xi Yan, then walked back to her seat and sat down.
Shen Huan saw the hair on her forehead was wet. “Jinyang, did you just wash your face?”
ng Jinyang grunted in assent. “I was a little sleepy, so I went to wash my face to wake myself up.”
Shen Huan didn’t suspect anything.
