Chapter 34 Han Yuanchong’s Provocation
CHAPTER 34: CHAPTER 34 HAN YUANCHONG’S PROVOCATION
Yu Hang’s arrival surprised Zhou Ran, who had already started his duty shift, although Sui Yi had introduced Yu Hang as her classmate, he still felt uncomfortable.
After all, this was the first time Sui Yi was so close to a classmate...
Zhou Ran’s subtle hostility did not spoil Yu Hang’s good mood, even when he saw Elder Tang, he was still full of smiles, greeting him cheerfully even though they didn’t know each other, but he was quite polite.
Elder Tang glanced at him, then looked at Sui Yi and raised an eyebrow.
"Are you Sui Yi’s classmate?"
"Yes!" Yu Hang, who was very sociable, took the breakfast from Sui Yi’s hands and started sharing it with Elder Tang.
His demeanor, outgoing and sunny, was apparent.
But it was quite amiable.
Elder Tang chuckled, "Your dad is Yu Quan, right?"
Yu Hang was startled, "Yes, do you know him?"
"The owner of Frost Bicycle Association... Sui Yi’s bike was bought from your store, I just found out you two are actually classmates."
Hearing Elder Tang mention Yu Hang’s background, Zhou Ran’s expression changed slightly, glancing at Sui Yi unintentionally.
So, the reason Sui Yi treated this Yu Hang differently was because...
After finishing the meal, while Sui Yi was walking into the kitchen, Zhou Ran emerged from a corner to block Sui Yi’s path, frowning and saying, "Sui Yi, although your classmate’s family is very rich, you are still young, and focusing on your studies is what you should be doing... Don’t think about unnecessary things, they only want to have fun anyway, in the end, it will surely be you who loses out..."
Sui Yi did not expect Zhou Ran to suddenly come at her with such a long speech, and after listening, she frowned, not yet responding.
"Listen to me, keep your distance from him, with your background, you can’t afford to play these games, Sui Yi." Zhou Ran noticed Yu Hang was getting on well with Elder Tang, with a demeanor that was entirely uninhibited, relying on nothing but his family’s wealth... With a cold snort in his heart, he rushed to give another piece of advice.
Now Sui Yi understood, and giving Zhou Ran a cool glance, she wiped her hands dry, "I know what I’m doing, thank you for the reminder."
And with that, she walked past him.
Zhou Ran did not notice the indifference with which Sui Yi glanced over at him.
She did not like others telling her what to do.
Especially when they came with such self-centered opinions.
Watching Yu Hang merrily following Sui Yi to school, Elder Tang stroked his Little Beard, "This Yu youngster sure has good taste..."
Zhou Ran kept his head down, busy with his work, and did not respond.
--------------------
When the bus approached the bus stop in front of Second High School, stopping at the traffic light, several high school students with sleepy faces leaning against the windows, chewing on buns, suddenly had their eyes widen, clutching the window and shouting to those next to them, "Look, isn’t that Third Class’s Yu Hang?"
"It’s him!"
"Eh, who’s that next to him..."
Two bicycles were riding on the neat bicycle lane, stopping in front of the white line. There were also many other students heading to Second High School by bike, their faces misted with the morning haze.
Naturally, Yu Hang attracted attention and was very magnetic; when he stopped, many students greeted him, but while greeting, they all couldn’t help but glance at Sui Yi by Yu Hang’s side.
She was not wearing a uniform.
She wore a loose, snow-white soft shirt, sky-blue seven-minute casual slim-fit pants, and white canvas shoes.
Whether seen from close up or afar, with a slender waist and soft back, long legs like bamboo, and skin white as snow, she now leaned one foot on the pedal and the other against the ground, lightly holding the bike, turning her head to look at the traffic light, as if in thought, her brows and eyes picturesque.
Yu Hang finally broke away from all these greetings and found an opportunity to ask Sui Yi, "Sui Yi, do you know about our grade not being able to cancel the PE class?"
Sui Yi had just been thinking about the Assassin and Saturday’s matter, and didn’t react at first to Yu Hang’s question until he reminded her again, and she then turned to look at him, "Hmm? I don’t know..."
"It’s because the education bureau said they want to keep up with our high school students’ physical fitness or something, and every high school must keep the PE class in senior year..." Yu Hang seemed to have a mischievous smile on his face.
Now, are you going to keep pretending to be frail and avoid the PE class?
Sui Yi was aware of his teasing, but turned her head away, responding nonchalantly, "Hmm..."
"..." Yu Hang didn’t know how to continue the conversation for a moment, when suddenly, someone cut in beside him.
It was also a bicycle, with the same brand as his, but it was the more expensive model.
When Han Yuanchong saw Yu Hang, he then glanced over at Sui Yi and took a look at the remaining bicycle that belonged to Sui Yi. How to describe his expression at that moment?
It was somewhat playful, with a smirk, and he said, "Yu Hang, isn’t that bike the same brand as yours?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone suddenly paid attention to this, before they had only been wondering how Sui Yi had managed to get a bicycle, and it looked extremely high-end...
Could it be that it was the same brand as Yu Hang’s bike?
Speaking of which...
"Doesn’t Yu Hang’s family own a brand store?"
"It seems so..."
Regarding the prominent figures in the school, they were like celebrities, with their family backgrounds being the subject of everyone’s gossip. Yu Hang’s family background was well-known in Second High School.
So...
The people present started to get noisy.
But it was no match for Han Yuanchong’s cool and frivolous remark, "I thought it was a gift from you..."
Was it really a thought? More like a belief~~~
The crowd was in an uproar! Even the thick-skinned Yu Hang sensed the malicious intent in Han Yuanchong’s words regarding Sui Yi’s connection to him, his expression changed, and he was about to retort, but then he saw that Sui Yi just glanced indifferently at Han Yuanchong, her look so faint.
As if she saw him, yet also as if she did not...
In her hand was a slim, stylish smartphone, appearing at some point, with her slender fingers typing rapidly, scrolling through the pages, the cold light reflected in her eyes.
If the bicycle was a gift from Yu Hang, what about that phone?
Was she provoking or showing off?
Was it shamelessness or sheer contempt?
Wasn’t she afraid of being ridiculed to death by these people?
Han Yuanchong felt instantly disgusted, extremely uncomfortable, his face darkened, just about to say something, but then he saw the bus window beside Sui Yi slowly roll down.
A person, a face, exceedingly beautiful, looked over with a glance, like the dust gently settling... on them.
More precisely, on Sui Yi.
Yhan Qingwu smiled shallowly at the edges of her mouth, her clear eyes like misty Jiangnan rain, looking at Sui Yi as she said, "Good morning, deskmate."
Her eyebrows and eyes curved, rich with a long history.
In school days, this was the most basic and kindest of greetings, like an evergreen tree’s eternal bloom, forever unfading.
Sui Yi gave her a slight nod in response, with a courteous smile that was neither intense nor weak.
"Good morning."
Having said that, her long legs kicked off, her back arching low, hands gripping the handlebars, she turned into a streamlined figure with a neat, standard posture, zipping past their view.
The green light was on!
"Hey, wait for me, Sui Yi!"
"Ow, ow! You’re doing this again! Ignoring me again!"
Yu Hang hurried to catch up!
The bus started, and Yhan Qingwu’s face passed through Han Yuanchong’s vision with an indifferent hue.
His face looked incredibly foul.
The rest of the students, filled with a gossip-hungry mentality, noisily headed toward The Gate not far off...
