Chapter 44: Wait and See (two in one)

Ten minutes later, a medium cup, a large cup with regular pearls and a large cup with double pearls sat in front of Su Ye.
She nodded in satisfaction, and finally picked up the medium cup of milk tea that Wang Dongqing bought for the first time, poked it with a straw, and waved it in front of him. “Thank you.”
F*ck, wasn’t the last cup she said was the wrong one the first time?
“Su Ye!” Wang Dongqing was so angry that his glasses were nearly fell off. He had queued up to buy three cups of milk tea and was now covered in sweat. “Don’t forget that your father still wants to ask our family to cooperate! Aren’t you afraid that I will tell my mother when I go back?”
Su Ye was sucking on the pearls. She looked beautiful. “It’s not up to you whether we cooperate or not. It’s not up to your mother, and it’s not up to your father either.”
“What?” Wang Dongqing adjusted his glasses. “Aren’t you being too arrogant? If my father says it’s not up to you, then who’s in charge?”
Su Ye smiled. “You don’t believe me? Just wait and see.”
The mock exams did not take as long as the official exam. The bell chimed and they were all finally over.
Su also put away the formula sheet into her bag. She turned and said, “It’s still more efficient in school.”
Gu Qi secretly took a glance. The formula sheet was almost filled to the brim with writing. The handwriting on it was like chicken scratch. With a glance, it was impossible to recognize what was written. She only knew that there were words and diagrams, which looked decent.
The crowd at the entrance of the teaching building surged. The students of the snail class ran out.
Among the chaotic crowd, only Rong Ruo, who was protected by Wang Dongqing, walked leisurely and elegantly. Her every frown and smile showed how cool she was.
Wang Dongqing piped up, “The Math problem this time isn’t that difficult. I reckon there will be quite a number of people who will get full marks.”
Rong Ruo tucked her hair behind her ear and said, “Mm, after all, it’s a revision test. I probably don’t want to discourage the poor students.”
“Rong Ruo” Rong Ruo’s desk mate, Xie Minmin, patted her shoulder from behind.
“AH!” Rong Ruo was focused on walking when she was suddenly shocked by her. She subconsciously hid beside Wang Dongqing.
Wang Dongqing looked at Xie Minmin unhappily and said, “What’s wrong with you? You’re so loud that you scared her.”
Xie Minmin scratched the back of her head and said, “I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay, you didn’t do it on purpose.” Rong Ruo, from what everyone could see, was always so understanding.
Xie Minmin’s grades were at the back of class one. She had a bold and forthright personality and had short, soft hair. She usually loved to dress in a gender-neutral style. Other people would go for tutoring after school, but she would practice boxing after school. Logically speaking, such a person would not have any interaction with Rong Ruo, but in her heart, Rong Ruo was her best friend.
When she had just entered the first year of high school, it was Rong Ruo who had enthusiastically told her that there were many classmates who ostracized her, telling her to be more cautious.
She was very grateful in her heart. Her studies were poor, and she could not speak up for herself. She may have had a huge, rich family but there was nothing else to her name. Only Rong Ruo did not dislike her. From then on, she swore that Rong Ruo’s friends were her friends and Rong Ruo’s enemies were her enemies!
Seeing that they were about to walk out of the school gate, Rong Ruo casually held onto Xie Minmin’s arm and said to Wang Dongqing, “You go ahead first. Minmin and I will go over there to buy some things.”
Wang Dongqing let out an ‘Oh’ in disappointment. He kicked the stone beside his feet and looked at them for a while before turning around to leave.
On this side, Rong Ruo held onto Xie Minmin’s arm and walked past the shop without entering. Xie Minmin was a little curious. “Why aren’t you buying anything?”
“I wasn’t going to buy anything at first.”Rong Ruo’s voice was a little shy, “Qi Yu’s car is parked over there. I don’t want Dongqing to see it. You know how he treats me…”
Xie Minmin suddenly came to a realization, “Oh Ruo, you’re so thoughtful. No wonder everyone likes you.”
Qi Yu was half leaning by the car. When he saw them coming over, he waved the keys in his hand and unlocked the car with a beep.
It was a brand-new white BMW, different from the one that sent Rong Ruo to school in the morning.
“This car of yours…” Xie minmin glanced at it and complimented it rather casually. “Not bad.”
This car was newly bought by Qi Yu. He was very proud to have bought it with the money he earned from investing.
Rong Ruo glanced at the words “Brilliance BMW” on the back of the car and her eyes darkened.
Although it was said that one would rather cry in a BMW than laugh on a bicycle, there were different types of BMWs. Brilliance was the cheapest BMW.
Xie Minmin’s tone just now was very good at explaining this point. Her family background was very good, and she had seen all kinds of amazing cars. People like her did not even bother to ask how much a car was. They’d just buy it.
“Oh Ruo, Qi Yu is really good to you. He personally picks you up from school. You are the only person in the entire First High School who is favored by him. No wonder you let him park his car in such a remote place. He must be afraid that the other students would be jealous when they see him, right?” Xie Minmin’s brain didn’t know how to think straight, she was completely fooled by Rong Ruo’s facade.
Rong Ruo curved her lips. “Yes, yes. After all, we’re still students. We should keep a low profile.”
Qi Yu smiled gently and helped Rong Ruo open the passenger door. His big hand was propped on the roof of the car, afraid that she would knock her head.
Rong Ruo was just about to get into the car when she felt a gust of wind behind her. Accompanied by a high-class whirring that could only be produced by a top-notch engine, a familiar black Bentley stopped beside her.
It was the Bo family’s car!
“DAMN!” Xie Minmin’s interest was immediately piqued. “This car is customized, right? The sound of the engine is simply superb!”
Rong Ruo turned around to look at the car. She wanted to investigate, but just as she turned around, she saw Su Ye’s figure appear in the corner! Whistling, she walked towards the Bo family’s car with a relaxed expression.
Su Ye’s gaze only fell on Rong Ruo and the others who were flabbergasted for a moment before moving away. She did not care much and walked to the side of the car. She opened the car door and went in.
She was really busy today and did not have the time to pay attention to them.
“The Bo family’s car is here to pick up Su Ye?” Xie Minmin cried out in surprise, completely crushing Rong Ruo.
As if sensing that Rong Ruo was in a bad mood, Xie Minmin peeked into the Bo family’s car and said, “Ruo, there’s no one else in the car besides the driver, and Bo Yunli isn’t here either. I don’t think he’s here to pick her up from school, he’s here to interrogate her.”
Rong Ruo forced a smile, which was rather unsightly.
Qi Yu’s expression was not much better, but he still maintained his usual thoughtfulness. “Ruo, it’s getting late, let’s go first.”
He was certain that Su Ye had deliberately asked the driver to park the car next to him, just to embarrass him.
Love begets hate, what he said was true!
But how did she know his whereabouts? Did she hire a private detective? When would she let him go?
