Chapter 345: Chapter 345: Truly Black-Hearted
Qin Xiangnuan was also helpless, how did she bring such a trouble upon herself, this woman, who was like a wolf, was dying to devour Jian Zhiwang alive. Jian Zhiqing seemed okay with it, with an attitude that said, "you deal with your own issues, don’t pin them on me", which made Qin Xiangnuan really want to tear his face off.
But, Jian Zhiqing was right, it was trouble she had caused.
She had no choice, afraid of causing Jian Zhiqing trouble, so, she couldn’t go home either.
"Recently, I’ve been studying hard, I plan to just stay and eat in school," Qin Xiangnuan said with a smile, a smile that held some distance, not knowing if Li Mingyan could see it.
"You live so close, and still want to stay at the school?" Li Mingyan seemed unhappy, "How about I rent a room there too? That way, we could study together."
"Sure," Qin Xiangnuan continued to smile, but her smile seemed more distant.
"Fifty yuan a month, food is on your own. If you want to join for meals, that’s another fifty yuan."
"What?" Li Mingyan almost jumped up, fifty yuan a month, how could it be so expensive? Living in the school dorms doesn’t cost that much annually, but living outside costs fifty yuan a month, how could it be so expensive?
Suddenly, Li Mingyan seemed to think of something.
"Xiang Nuan, do you not want me to live there?" She squinted her eyes, indeed, women’s friendships are sometimes too fragile, especially over a man, all sorts of assumptions can emerge.
"That’s right," Qin Xiangnuan didn’t deny it, "There are enough people living there, men and women alike, it wouldn’t be convenient for you to live there, and it would cause trouble for others," if Jian Zhiqing knew she had brought such a tenant, she wouldn’t have good days ahead.
"You are really scheming, not a good person."
Li Mingyan chuckled coldly, "You must have fallen for him, so you don’t want others to get close. But such a good man, could someone like you ever hope to match him, having no parents, what makes you think you could?"
This was indeed harsh, Qin Xiangnuan had heard this sort of thing too much in her previous lifetime, so much that she had become numb to it. No matter how nasty or painful it was, she had heard it all, so these ugly words could not hurt her even a little bit. However, she knew well now that her friendship with Li Mingyan was probably over.
She hugged her books and turned around. The school term was almost ending, and it was only a few days’ stay at school. Next term, there would be a reshuffle for the senior year, naturally, the dorms would change, and given the difference in their academic performances, they wouldn’t be living together. Even if they were, she would find a way out, no future interactions would be best.
Li Mingyan was also angry, cursing in her heart that Qin Xiangnuan was selfish and greedy, actually also thinking about Jian Zhiqing, yet not allowing others to get close, saying one thing but thinking another, usually pretending to be so nice, who knew what disgusting thoughts were stored in her heart.
But she didn’t believe, aside from Qin Xiangnuan, that she couldn’t get close to Jian Zhiqing.
She was good-looking, from a good family background, and sure to be a university student in the future, if Jian Zhiqing didn’t admire someone like her, could he possibly admire an orphan like Qin Xiangnuan?
What a joke, truly a huge joke.
She took a day off specifically today, just standing at the door waiting for Jian Zhiqing who just coincidentally came back from his unit, wearing an off-white trench coat, hands in his pockets, looking very suave and graceful even in the heat of summer, his presence felt like a cool and refreshing breeze, instantly melting Li Mingyan’s heart.
She hurriedly tidied her clothes, combed her hair, thinking today she was wearing the new clothes she bought, a blue short-sleeved shirt, grey bell-bottoms, and black leather shoes, an outfit that stood out in the school, which her sister had bought for her from a big city, saying these clothes had foreign elements and were therefore very fashionable and trendy, of course, no one in the school had the same.
With her clothes nicely arranged, she saw Jian Zhiqing walking closer, planning to make it seem like an unexpected encounter, isn’t it said in books, maybe they could immediately spark the flames of love.
"Brother Jian, you’re here too?" Li Mingyan hurriedly approached, occasionally letting her hair fall in front of her chest, gently stroking it, then flipping her long black hair back, the braid forming an arc that was not quite graceful. She had calculated everything, except the effect absolutely was not like what TV shows depicted, it was just like a reality vs. expectation scenario, starkly different.
And she still didn’t realize, shyly lowering her eyes, standing right in front of Jian Zhiqing.
Jian Zhiqing pulled his hands from his pockets, he still needed to go water the field, how suddenly a woman appeared flipping her hair, it felt like how scallions swish their tails.
"Who are you?" He lowered his voice, somewhat repulsed by this kind of flirting.
His indifferent tone and that question "who are you", directly extinguished all the heat in Li Mingyan’s heart, cooling it instantly, as if a bucket of cold water had just been poured over her head, slapping her face.
Instantly, she felt both embarrassed and furious, wishing she could find a tree to crash into.
"Brother Jian, it’s me," she flicked the broken strands of hair off her head, "I’ve been to your house, don’t you remember? I’m Qin Xiangnuan’s classmate," her heart really felt disgusted, she didn’t even want to mention Qin Tongnuan’s name now, but, to make Jian Zhiqing remember her, she still mentioned Qin Xiangnuan’s name, it really made her uncomfortable inside, like she had eaten something unclean, choking, unable to swallow or spit it out.
"I don’t remember," Jian Zhiqing coldly brushed past Li Mingyan, even that glance was somewhat unimpressed, lacking the amazement Li Mingyan expected in his eyes, there was nothing, just a glance of unfamiliarity, and some discernible disgust she could feel.
"Brother Jian, did Qin Tongnuan say something bad about me? Don’t believe her, she’s just a two-faced woman," Li Mingyan thought about this and clenched her fists tightly, Qin Xiangnuan you little person, I will definitely not let this go.
But it might have been better if she hadn’t said that, as soon as these words came out, Jian Zhiqing’s face immediately turned colder.
"Young lady, are you sick?" He wrapped his arms around his chest, his temper was never too good, but this side of him, Qin Xiangnuan had never had the chance to see.
