Chapter 217 - 217 Borrowing Notes
Liu Cheng’s sudden voice caused Li Jin to turn around in confusion. She asked hesitantly, “Are you talking to me?”
Liu Cheng saw Li Jin’s dumbfounded expression and said sarcastically, “Other than you, who else is here?”
Li Jin thought for a moment, and her puzzled expression became even more apparent. “I’m sorry. I thought you were the new one. After all, everyone here is from Class 2, and you’re the only one from Class 4. So, you mean you’ve transferred to Class 2 as well?”
When Li Jin apologized, her eyes were filled with sincerity. Nevertheless, she had unintentionally hurt Liu Cheng’s self-esteem.
Shen Xi and Zhao Yuan exchanged a few glances and couldn’t help but laugh.
Liu Cheng’s performance at the end of the last semester had been satisfactory. She had been promoted from Class 6 to Class 4, but she was still far from being able to enter Class 2. Not long after school started, Liu Cheng applied for the stage exam and tried to get into Class 2, but she failed.
Although one shouldn’t laugh at others’ grades, they couldn’t pass up the chance to mock the annoying Liu Cheng.
As expected, Liu Cheng’s facial expression turned ugly.
Li Jin, on the other hand, had a confused expression on her face as she mumbled, “I don’t know what you meant just now, but are you in a bad mood because Shen Xi gave me his study materials and notes first?”
Seeing that Liu Cheng did not say anything and only glared at her, Li Jin quickly continued, “I’m sorry. I didn’t know that you and Shen Xi were close dormmates back then and unintentionally upset you. I mustered up my courage to borrow Shen Xi’s notes because they were praised by my form teacher, and she’s also the top in class.”
At this point, Li Jin said in a panic, “Please don’t get angry at Shen Xi over this, or I’ll feel bad. And don’t worry, I’ll be done copying it very quickly. When I return it to Shen Xi, you can borrow it from her.”
Liu Cheng was mindblown by Li Jin’s denseness. She didn’t know what kind of brain she had to be able to imagine things to this extent.
What a joke! What close relationship could she have with Shen Xi, who has a lower status than her?
“All right, Li Jin, shut up. Are you an idiot? Don’t you understand human language?” Liu Cheng barked.
Li Jin’s brows furrowed, and she said a little angrily, “Why are you cussing? I already said that Shen Xi lent it to me because I came first. No matter how angry you are, you shouldn’t talk like that! At most…”
Li Jin’s breathing sped up. She paused for a few seconds before she unwillingly said, “At most, I’ll just let you copy it first. You can borrow it from Shen Xi first, and I’ll borrow it from her after you’re done.
Zhao Yuan, who was watching from the side, saw that Liu Cheng was so infuriated at Li Jin that he’s nostrils were flaring, and she was instantly overjoyed.
Liu Cheng patted her chest to calm herself down, then uttered angrily, ” “Li Jin, can you just shut up? Who said I transferred to Class 2? Who said I wanted Shen Xi’s notes? And why would I want to be friends with a lowly person like Shen Xi?”
Li Jin looked at Liu Cheng suspiciously. “Then why are you angry? Why don’t you let me be friends with Shen Xi? Isn’t it because Shen Xi and I got closer, so you got angry and jealous?”
Liu Cheng laughed out of anger. “I will never be friends with people of lower status like Shen Xi. Someone like me would only befriend a rich girl like Jiang Xue. Shen Xi is not worthy of me!”
Li Jin carefully glanced at Shen Xi and saw that she wasn’t angry at all. She thought to herself, “She’s indeed a girl with a sense of class and magnanimity.”
On the other side, Liu Cheng started to praise Jiang Xue and said proudly, “You know what? Xue is the future young madam of Xiang Group. Trash like Shen Xi isn’t even fit to work under Xue as someone who carries her shoes. Listen, if it wasn’t for Shen Xi hurting Xue’s face today, Xue would have been having a candlelight dinner with Young Master Xiang right now.”
At this point, Liu Cheng’s face was full of yearning. She proudly imagined the scene of the top rich families having dinner in a hotel and said sarcastically, “For families like Shen Xi’s, they will never be able to enter such a place.”
