Chapter 9
After seeing that everyone was becoming even more convinced that she was involved, Wen Nian became even angrier. However, she still didn’t understand Huang Yue’s manipulations. She felt like they were targeting her and wouldn’t stop asking her to explain herself. With Huang Yue’s intentional guidance, those around them came to believe that Wen Nian had a bad temper and was quick to blame others for her own mistakes.
Coupled with the fact that Huang Yue had deliberately instilled those immoral thoughts and Wen Nian listened to her every word, her path became narrower and narrower. This made it even more difficult for the other students to be on good terms with her.
There were 55 students in Class Two, but no one wanted to sit with Wen Nian. Huang Yue, on the other hand, claimed that she had to sit in the middle of the classroom due to her short height, which was only 2 cm shorter than Wen Nian. Unfortunately, Wen Nian didn’t question this excuse and believed it to be true.
The more Wen Nian thought about it, the more she realized how blinded she had been in her previous life. She had done everything Huang Yue told her to do just because Huang Yue was willing to be her friend.
Wen Nian shook her head to clear her mind of distracting thoughts. It was not yet time for morning reading, so she took out her English textbook and began memorizing vocabulary words.
Huang Yue usually arrived at the classroom 20 minutes early. When she saw Wen Nian reading intently in her seat, her eyes widened slightly. As was her habit, she wanted to go over and talk to her, but she suddenly remembered Wen Nian’s attitude towards her on Friday.
And what happened on Saturday! Wen Nian had left with Wei Xiao without even saying goodbye, causing Huang Yue to miss another chance to talk to Wei Xiao. She had no idea what they had discussed when they returned to the Wei family’s old residence.
Huang Yue walked back to her seat. This time, she wanted Wen Nian to have a taste of being isolated by everyone!
After the morning reading, there was a 15-minute break before the first class, which was math taught by the head teacher.
Li Fang, a female teacher in her forties, was known for her solemn expression and was nicknamed “Big Voice Li” due to her ability to scold people loud enough to be heard from two floors up. Despite her infamous bad temper, she was especially serious and responsible when it came to her students. Li Fang was a special teacher in the province, and many affluent families sought to enroll their children in her class due to her high success rate in getting her students admitted to top universities.
When Li Fang entered the classroom, she brought a new face with her to the podium. After glancing around the room and being pleased with the quiet atmosphere, she introduced the new student, saying, “We have a new student in our class this semester. Student Shen, please come up and briefly introduce yourself.”
Everyone’s attention was immediately drawn to the new transfer student. He had deep and exquisite facial features that were a little overly beautiful, but perfectly matched his handsome, sword-like eyebrows. He did not look feminine at all. His black hair hung softly on his forehead, and his dark eyes were like agate, sharp and piercing. His cold temperament gave him an almost ethereal appearance.
The girls were captivated by his handsome appearance, while the boys felt uneasy in his presence. Despite wearing the same school uniform as everyone else, the transfer student looked like he was dressed in high-end fashion, giving off an air of luxury. However, his sharp and piercing eyes hinted that he was not someone to be messed with, causing the other students to keep a low profile around him.
Moreover, there was still Big Voice Li. If she found out that someone in the class was causing trouble, this matter would not be resolved.
Shen Jun introduced himself in a serious manner. “My name is Shen Jun.”
Then, it was followed by a few seconds of silence, Li Fang realized that Shen Jun was really just giving a simple introduction. The corners of her mouth twitched. “Alright, let’s applaud and welcome the new classmate.”
The girl’s applause was especially loud.
As there was only an empty seat beside Wen Nian, and Shen Jun was not short, he was naturally arranged to be Wen Nian’s deskmate.
Wen Nian looked at Shen Jun beside him and greeted him softly with a smile. “Hello, my name is Wen Nian.”
Shen Jun glanced at Wen Nian and replied softly, “Hello.”
The two of them greeted each other briefly and did not communicate anymore. Wen Nian stole a few glances at the transfer student from the corner of her eye and was a little puzzled. Did this happen in her previous life?
After thinking for a while, Wen Nian remembered why she had no impression of him at all.
In Wen Nian’s previous life, she brought Huang Yue to the Wei family’s banquet. Later, Huang Yue urged her to drop out of school and become a celebrity in the entertainment industry over the weekend. The reason for this was Wei Xiao. Huang Yue claimed that after becoming a celebrity, Wen Nian could get to know many wealthy individuals. Only by socializing with people from the upper-class society could she become a good wife for Wei Xiao. Otherwise, how could a girl from an ordinary working family compete with those affluent socialites?
In reality, there were indeed many female celebrities who did not come from privileged backgrounds but used their status as celebrities to enter wealthy families. In her previous life, when Wen Nian saw these successful cases and Huang Yue’s enthusiastic suggestions, she didn’t hesitate to skip class for the interview that day. In the end, she successfully auditioned for the entertainment company, Huaye Shengshi.
