Chapter 52: Chapter 52 Help!
Having figured out the twists and turns, Zhong Niangyao shrugged her shoulders indifferently and said, “Think whatever you want. As for Zhao Xuanlang, if you want to know what he thinks, go ask him yourself!”
“You—” Chen Lianlian was choked with anger.
“Co on, Lianlian, let’s go!” Shen Yixue tugged at Chen Lianlian’s hand. “Didn’t you just say you were going to accompany to buy so paint? Let’s hurry up and go now!”
At that mont, the reason she impulsively called out to Zhong Niangyao was just to let her know that Shen Yixue was very popular. Even without Zhong Niangyao, there were plenty of people willing to be her friend.
However, she hadn’t expected Zhong Niangyao to say such a thing. For so reason, she felt there was sothing eerie about seeing Zhong Niangyao now. So, all she wanted to do was to pull Chen Lianlian away.
Hearing Shen Yixue’s words, Chen Lianlian looked toward Zhong Niangyao again, “You don’t need to be here stirring up trouble. Zhong Niangyao, instead of constantly trying to sar Xiao Xue out of jealousy, you might want to improve yourself! Xiao Xue isn’t like those people you hang around waiting for things to happen. Do you even know why she ca here today?”
“She’s about to participate in the national Painting and Calligraphy competition. Today, she specifically ca to buy watercolor paints. Once she wins first place in this competition, she will be able to join the Painting and Calligraphy Association, sothing you’ll never achieve in your lifeti.”
During the conversation, Chen Lianlian held her head high, her proud deanor as though she, not Shen Yixue, was the one about to win first place.
“That’s enough, Lianlian,” Shen Yixue tugged at Chen Lianlian’s sleeve and spoke in a low voice, “I’m just participating in the competition, whether I can win a prize is still uncertain!”
Though she said this, the tone of pride was unmistakable in her voice.
“Xiao Xue, you shouldn’t be too modest,” Chen Lianlian said with vicarious pride, “The professors from the college’s art departnt have said, given your skills, it’s very likely you’ll get first place. You can definitely do it.”
Shen Yixue smiled but didn’t continue to argue with Chen Lianlian.
“A painting and calligraphy competition?” Zhong Niangyao stroked her chin, a thought gleaming in her eyes, “Sounds pretty interesting!”
Shen Yixue, who was previously a bit self-satisfied, couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable when she saw Zhong Niangyao’s reaction, as if sothing was slipping away from her.
Just as Chen Lianlian was about to continue boasting about Shen Yixue while belittling Zhong Niangyao, suddenly a lodious ringtone echoed.
Zhong Niangyao leisurely took out her phone, glanced at the screen, looked up at Chen Lianlian, and then directly answered the call.
Chen Lianlian felt baffled. But before she could figure it out, she heard a voice from the other end of Zhong Niangyao’s phone. Suddenly, her entire deanor soured, and her gaze towards Zhong Niangyao was filled with resentnt and hostility.
“Boss, help!”
No sooner had the call connected when an almost shrill voice cried out from the other end, “This ti it’s a truly life-threatening ergency! Only you can resolve it.”
As she listened to the noisy and shrill voice over the phone, Zhong Niangyao couldn’t help but move the phone slightly away from her ear.
After the person on the other end had finished speaking, she brought the phone back to her ear, “Tell the location, I’m heading there now.”
The person on the other end quickly gave her an address. Zhong Niangyao hung up her phone and, without giving Chen Lianlian and Shen Yixue another glance, she turned and left.
Watching Zhong Niangyao’s departing figure, Chen Lianlian clenched her teeth and muttered under her breath, “She really is a bitch. What does Xuan Lang see in her? He treats her so well.”
Shen Yixue’s lips curved into a secretive smile, which then disappeared, and she gently began to console, “Xiao Xue, don’t think too much, maybe there’s nothing between Zhao Xuanlang and Nianyao like you imagine!”
“Moreover, in the past, Nianyao liked Jingming. It’s just that Jingming never liked her back. She—”
“Is it because Li Jingming didn’t fancy her, so now she has shifted her target to Xuanlang, right?”
Chen Lianlian was not comforted, instead, she hated Zhong Nianyao even more, “As expected, she’s such a fickle slut, always keeping an eye on what’s next.”
“Lianlian,” Shen Yixue’s eyes flashed with delight, though her face didn’t show it, “I think there must be so misunderstanding between you two, you—”
“Xiao Xue, how can you still speak for her at this ti!” Chen Lianlian gritted her teeth with hatred, “Zhong Nianyao, that bitch, actually seducing Xuanlang, I won’t let her off.”
“This—” Shen Yixue looked distressed.
“I don’t need you to do anything, but don’t stop from doing anything.” Chen Lianlian watched Zhong Nianyao’s retreating figure, with a hint of ruthlessness in her eyes, “I absolutely won’t let her go easily.”
Shen Yixue said nothing more, but she was very pleased.
She hadn’t expected that today’s chance encounter would have such an effect.
Unlike her, Chen Lianlian’s tactics would definitely teach Zhong Nianyao a lesson. Of course, if it could ruin Nianyao’s reputation or even get her expelled, that would be even better.
Even if that wasn’t possible, as long as it caused trouble for Nianyao, she would feel thrilled.
On the other side, Zhong Nianyao was unaware that today’s encounter would soon bring her a bit of trouble.
However, even if she knew, she wouldn’t care.
At this mont, she had arrived at a restaurant according to the address given by Zhao Xuanlang.
As soon as she entered, she heard a familiar voice.
“Boss, over here, we’re over here.”
The sudden loud voice drew the attention of everyone in the restaurant to them.
Seeing the excited Zhao Xuanlang, waving at her like an overjoyed pup, Zhong Nianyao felt sowhat speechless. She held her forehead, really wishing there was a crack in the ground to crawl into, rather than facing the odd looks from the people around.
She quickly approached Zhao Xuanlang’s table, and Zhong Nianyao whispered sternly, “Shut up!”
Although it was just a soft command, it imdiately silenced Zhao Xuanlang.
Another man at the table couldn’t help but click his tongue in amazent after witnessing the scene.
He had been a good friend of Zhao Xuanlang for many years and had never seen Zhao Xuanlang be so obedient.
