Chapter 32: Falling Out

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the eyes of these nobles, feelings were just a way to toy with women.

When he was happy, he would tease her like a cat or dog. When he was unhappy, he would throw her aside. In a few days, he might not even remember her name. If he remembered her name, she would probably become his mistress. For example, in her previous life.

Qiu Ying laughed in self-mockery, then stood up to pay the bill and go home.

When Jiang Lin returned to the dormitory, only Yao Yu was there.

He slammed the door like he did last week.

But unlike last week, Jiang Lin’s face was even more ashen this time, and the coldness in his eyes was intimidating.

Yao Yu immediately went forward and asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Did you quarrel with Qiu Ying?”

The corners of Jiang Lin’s mouth curled up. The tip of his tongue pressed against his molars as he laughed. “Why would I argue with her?! I can have any woman I want. Don’t mention her to me in the future!”

The biscuits and bread he had bought on Monday had just arrived yesterday and were piled up beside the television in the living room. For the past two days, Jiang Lin had been thinking about how to make Qiu Ying accept these two boxes.

At this moment, Jiang Lin only found it ironic and said coldly, “When you go back later, help me throw these two boxes into the trash can downstairs.”

With that, he entered the bedroom. The sound of the door closing was deafening.

Yao Yu was stunned for a few seconds. He swallowed and muttered to himself, “Sigh, it seems that it’s really over this time.”

Monday’s morning self-study was as usual a topic to discuss.

Yao Yu and Bai Zhen felt that the atmosphere in the group was abnormally strange. Every time they discussed a topic, the two of them were in charge of simple information selection and collection. The controversial parts would be discussed during the morning self-study session.

However, although they discussed it together, Jiang Lin and Qiu Ying basically discussed the difficult points together. Yao Yu and Bai Zhen were mostly onlookers.

Therefore, since the two of them spoke less today, the atmosphere changed.

Yao Yu knew what was going on, but Bai Zhen was confused. However, Bai Zhen could sense their abnormality.

Moreover, Qiu Ying had weight training this Monday morning, but Bai Zhen saw Jiang Lin as soon as she arrived, and Qiu Ying entered the classroom with two leg-tied sandbags on the spot.

After their homework was done, Qiu Ying and Bai Zhen turned back to their seats.

Bai Zhen asked with concern, “Why did you go to train alone this morning? Did you two quarrel?”

Qiu Ying blinked. “Dear Zhenzhen, we’re just ordinary classmates. We didn’t even argue. There are still a few days. I can practice by myself. After all, he has his own matters to attend to. I can’t always disturb him.”

Bai Zhen felt disappointed. She could only sigh silently and take out a new novel, “The Little Fairy of the Wolf School Tyrant.”

The school festival was on Thursday Friday, the primary was on Thursday, and the final was on Friday.

The 3km competition for the senior class’s female group started at 3:30 PM. After the women’s competition, it was the men’s competition.

Qiu Ying and Jiang Lin both made it to the finals without a hitch.

Bai Zhen had been eliminated in the preliminary round yesterday, so she decided to accompany Qiu Ying today.

Every contestant who participated in the long-distance run could choose a companion, but the companion could only run on the lawn in the field and couldn’t enter the race track.

As long-distance running required higher endurance, and the students were not professional athletes, with people accompanying, the contestants could last longer in the race, and good accompanying runners could also help the contestants increase their speed.

Large-scale official competitive competitions didn’t allow accompanying runners, but the school’s sports meet didn’t belong to that category. Moreover, the main goal of holding it was to let the students experience the competitive spirit of the sports arena. Participation was more important. It was hoped that the students would have more exercise awareness while obtaining cultural knowledge.

The school sports meet in the afternoon started at 2 p.m. Because it wasn’t time for Qiu Ying to compete, she cheered for the other students who were participating in the competition with Bai Zhen.

Halfway through the competition, Bai Zhen suddenly felt a pain in her stomach. “Little Yingying, my stomach doesn’t feel well. I’ll go to the bathroom.”

Qiu Ying was worried. “Do you want me to come with you?”

Bai Zhen bent down slightly and held her stomach. She frowned as she said, “No need. My stomach probably just hurts from drinking too much cold water just now. I’ll just go to the bathroom. The contestants from our class will go on stage next. You can cheer us on. We can’t lose in terms of momentum!” With that, she ran to the bathroom.
