Yan Hanxi skipped another day of class that day, so He Jing deducted 10 points
from him.
Thanks to the relentless efforts of Cheng Yi’s two best friends, Cheng Yi’s votes finally increased visibly. From 20 votes to 300 votes, she surpassed her senior, Xu Bi, and took the number one spot.
He Jing only took a glance and closed the school forum. She did not pay further attention to it and packed her bag to leave the school.
However, Cheng Yi walked over with Liu Sisi and Zhang Man. Before she could say anything, Zhang Man said in a mocking tone, “He Jing, why did you withdraw from the school belle selection?”
While waiting for He Jing to give her an ice cream treat, Shen Qiuyu sneered. “Of course it’s because she doesn’t want to compete with a certain pheasant and lower herself. She can only endure it.”
He Jing wanted to laugh again. These two best friends were like two defenseless little hens in front of Shen Qiuyu’s maximum combat power.
Zhang Man’s expression turned ugly .”Shen Qiuyu, would it kill you to speak nicely?”
Before Shen Qiuyu could speak, He Jing’s red lips curved up. “You know that she’s here, but you still have to come and provoke her and find trouble for yourselves. Isn’t it that there’s something wrong with your heads?”
Shen Qiuyu realized that He Jing’s words could be really mean. No wonder the two of them could previously argue evenly. She was delighted. It turned out that they were born to be sisters!
Cheng Yi’s expression turned cold. She pulled Zhang Man, who was about to flare up, and said, “Forget it, let’s go. The school is about to close. We should go home.”
After the three of them left, He Jing walked out of the classroom with Shen Qiuyu.
He Jing treated Shen Qiuyu to a Pizza Hut-flavored cone that even came with a second cup at half-price. Shen Qiuyu ate her ice cream and couldn’t help but complain to her idol. “Sister Jing, you’re too stingy. I’m the dignified daughter of the Shen family, and you actually treated me to such cheap ice cream.”
He Jing did not hide it and replied directly, “I can’t afford it.”
Shen Qiuyu didn’t believe it. “You’re already so poor. Didn’t the Cheng family help you?”
“They gave it to me, but I didn’t take it,” He Jing said lightly.
Shen Qiuyu thought about it and said, “That’s true. With a villain like Cheng Yi around, it’s not safe to take the money. It’s better not to take it.”
He Jing finished her ice cream and wiped her mouth with a tissue. She said, “I have to go find my brothers. I’ll leave first.”
Shen Qiuyu was still licking the ice cream that had melted because she had not paid attention to it. When she heard that, she hurriedly raised her head. He Jing had already disappeared into the crowd.
When He Jing arrived at First High School, she was carrying a lot of delicious
luuu.
As soon as He Sui came out of school, he shamelessly came up and said excitedly, “Are there beef meatballs today?”
“No.” He Jing smiled.
Who would eat beef meatballs every day and not get sick of them?
He Sui was a little disappointed. He grabbed a piece of barbecued meat and said as he ate, “You must remember to buy beef meatballs tomorrow. I…Xiaoguo loves them.”
He Jing was speechless. “Then why are you eating all the meatballs? Not a single one went to Xiaoguo.”
He Sui’s face flushed and he let out a soft sigh. “I’m just eating a few of your beef meatballs. You’re so stingy. When I go to university and become successful, I’ll buy you whatever you want and give you all that I earn.”
That was precisely what He Jing wanted He Sui to say – that it was not a matter of money, as long as she wasn’t cannon fodder at the critical moment.
Thinking of this, she stuffed a few more sticks of roasted meat into He Sui’s hands. After she was done, she suddenly remembered that there was someone else beside her. He Jing turned and handed over the plastic bag containing the roasted meat. “Second brother, do you want to eat?”
He Ning’s eyes had a gloomy look and he seemed unhappy. “No,” he said coldly.
After saying that, he strode ahead of them.
The three of them walked one after another and soon arrived at the bus stop.
He Jing waited for the bus with the crowd of people who were getting off work and school. She inadvertently caught a glimpse of a tall and slender figure..
