Particularly, the noni fruit was not commonly found. Noni fruit is native to Caribbean and Pacific islands such as Hawaii, and it’s a rare tropical fruit that isn’t easy to come by.
Surprisingly, Rong Tianshi’s face lit up with joy upon hearing Rong Qi’s gratitude. He felt that he had accomplished his purpose that day, so he decided to leave promptly to avoid overstaying and becoming a bother. He asked Rong Qi to convey his regards to Ye Nanshen and then got up to leave.
Rong Tianshi’s doing left Rong Qi somewhat bewildered. She thought, ‘He’s leaving just like that?’
Even the servants in the living room found it strange. It was completely different from the usual Rong Tianshi’s demeanor.
Rong Qi looked at the bag of fruit she was holding, feeling a bit conflicted because not everyone could tolerate these smells. Especially, the person upstairs couldn’t even accept delicious dishes like stinky rice noodles and stinky tofu.
After some consideration, Rong Qi decided to take the bag of fruit outside to eat before returning. The servants, who could smell the strong scents from a distance, had already distanced themselves, leaving Rong Qi sitting alone on the doorstep, eating calmly.
In truth, Rong Qi didn’t specifically seek out pungent foods, but these happened to fall within her range of preferences, which had been greatly exaggerated, making people think she only liked smelly foods. It was quite uncomfortable for her.
Sitting by the door, Rong Qi gazed at the courtyard’s scenery, enjoying the breeze, and her mood improved.
The next day, Rong Qi went to class as usual. But on her way to the classroom, she overheard some gossip about Rong Feiyu running away from home.
Rong Tianshi had a big argument with Wang Qing, and it was said that it escalated to the point where Rong Tianshi proposed divorce. Wang Qing was terrified, and the argument might still be ongoing if it weren’t for that.
Rong Qi furrowed her brows and wondered, ‘Could it be that he had come to see me yesterday because he was unhappy with the argument at home?’
Rong Qi shook her head, not wanting to get involved in that matter, and entered Class 7.
There were no classes in the morning, but Rong Qi insisted that the students of Class 7 come for a mock exam in the classroom. As soon as she entered the classroom, she saw Lu Qi sneak in, covering her face.
Huang Hao exclaimed loudly, “Lu Qi! What are you up to?”
Lu Qi was startled by Huang Hao’s shout and released her hand, glaring at him. She said, “Are you crazy? You scared me.”
However, when Lu Qi let go of her hand, everyone in the classroom was stunned because Lu Qi’s face had another bruise on it.
“What… were you being robbed again?” Huang Hao was amazed. “1 mean, you’re not particularly pretty or wealthy, so why would those robbers fixate on you?”
Lu Qi glared at Huang Hao and said, “You’re the one being robbed! I… 1 accidentally bumped into something.”
Han Ning furrowed his brow and asked, “Can bumping into something leave a glass shard imprint on your face?”
“I… I fell by accident, and I just happened to fall on a glass shard. Hey, don’t worry, I’ve already bought medicine. Don’t worry, 1 won’t bring shame to Class 7.”
Han Ning said, “With the money you spent on medicine, you might as well have your Feng Shui checked. You’ve had such a string of bad luck lately. Don’t infect us with your bad luck. And we have an exam today, so if you do poorly, that demoness will block our phone again.”
Sitting in front of Han Ning, Rong Qi touched her nose and thought, ‘Am I really that unreasonable? This is typical backbiting!*
“Ah! Exams, exams! How could I forget?” said Lu Qi. She looked distressed and almost cried.
Everyone in the classroom panicked except for Rong Qi, who could easily score full marks.
Rong Qi was also somewhat helpless. The bragging had already gone too far, and if she didn’t achieve it, it would be embarrassing. She had to fulfill the bet with Class 1, after all..
