Chapter Twenty-Six

  "Alright, stop thinking about it and go to sleep! I'm warning you, don't think too much, just remember one thing: you haven't taken advantage of others' abilities yet. You have that ability, so I don't need to worry about you anymore." Yang Rui pushed Wang Zhiqiao to go to sleep, otherwise she would be too tired to listen to class in the afternoon and had cried for a while, consuming so much energy. If she didn't get some rest and recharge her strength, she wouldn't be able to handle it, and her eyes would also become puffy. That would make her face others' curious gazes, and she would be at a loss for what to do.

  Wang Zhiqiao went to sleep obediently, having just made her angry. She left without looking back at him, which would make her a little more cautious and not dare to provoke her again. He didn't even dare to imagine what would happen if she ignored him, so he didn't dare disobey her and went to sleep quietly with his eyes closed.

  However, she didn't know that Yang Rui was watching her sleep with a worried face. Li Miao's appearance would ultimately be good or bad for her. Through his own guesses earlier, he realized how much influence Li Miao had on her and how long it took before she started caring about his thoughts. She spent the whole day thinking wildly, wondering if she could confidently protect herself from getting hurt if Li Miao were to do something harmful in the future. Wang Zhi Jiao turned over, changing positions, interrupting Yang Rui's train of thought. Hadn't he just warned her not to think too much? Yet here he was doing the same thing.

  Things that haven't happened yet, thinking about it more is useless. As Li Hui said before, if he really wanted to hurt Wang Zijiao, he would do it with his own abilities, and there's nothing she could do to stop him. All she can do is silently pray in her heart that Li Hui doesn't have any ill intentions towards Wang Zijiao.

  Just then, when he asked himself, wasn't his face still gloomy? How long has it been since he started getting along with Wang Zijiao again? Although people are changeable, his change is a bit too fast. What was he thinking? Wang Zijiao isn't some kind of fragrant pastry either. When facing her, she's troubled by all sorts of emotions. Such a proud person, no matter how you think about it, can't figure out why he's so tolerant of Wang Zijiao. They're not related, nor did they know each other before. Wang Zijiao isn't even considered beautiful and stunning. And for someone like him, there are all sorts of girls around, no need to rush to be good to Wang Zijiao. Can't figure it out!

  After the first class in the afternoon, Yang Rui walked to Wang Zhiqiao's position to chat with her. Halfway through their conversation, she turned around and smiled at Li Miao, saying: "You said you were so cold that day, how did you decide to talk to Wang Zhiqiao again?" Yang Rui thought that for someone as smart as Li Miao, she shouldn't beat around the bush, or it would only make him more hostile towards her.

  Wang Zhiqiao heard Yang Rui ask this and also turned his head around, quite curious.

  Li Hui rubbed her numb face from sleeping in class with her hand, glanced at the curious eyes in front of her, and replied slowly: "Why so many whys, we sit in front and back, see each other when looking up and down, it's a very natural thing."

  Wang Zijiao thought what he said was reasonable, as they sat at adjacent desks and couldn't avoid interacting with each other.

  However, Yang Rui didn't think so. She felt that Li Miao must not have told the truth. A person like him wouldn't stoop to doing all this for such a small matter. If you ignore him, he definitely won't bother with you. If he really thought this way, why hasn't he been nice to others in the class who have opinions about him?

  "So that's how it is!" Wang Zhiqiao laughed, looking at Li Huan. Yang Rui rolled her eyes, she didn't believe it herself, but there would always be people who did. For example, someone like Wang Zhiqiao, even if they said his fart smelled good, as long as he said it sincerely enough, she would still believe him.

  Li Hui smiled as he looked at Wang Zhiqiao, knowing she would believe what he said. He also took a glance at Yang Rui's gaze towards Wang Zhiqiao and thought to himself that fortunately, Wang had a friend who was much smarter than her, or else she would have been deceived terribly by others. However, seeing whether Yang Rui still had his guard up against him, Li Hui recalled a rule: in order to win someone over, one must first gain the favor of their friends. When they constantly praise someone in front of that person, she will gradually develop good feelings towards them.

  It seems that making an effort to build a good diplomatic relationship with the person in front of you is easy. Just pulling her into your own friend circle would be fine, and I believe that my friends will like Yang Rui. She's not only fun to talk to, but also has a heart that's willing to go all out for her friends, which is what my friends like most about her. Plus, she has a bit of a tomboy personality, without any of the pretentiousness or artificiality of some girls, and is much more straightforward than Wang Zhiqiao. Sometimes I think her personality is quite similar to Zhang Yang's - they're both treasures.

  Looking at Li Hui's sizing-up gaze, Yang Rui felt a chill run down her spine, always feeling that he was looking at his prey, appraising her. Yang Rui couldn't help but avoid his gaze, and Li Hui smiled as he saw her evasive expression, thinking to himself that no matter how much she hid, there was nothing he wanted to do that he couldn't do.

  "Zhang Yang, I found that you and a girl in my class look very similar." Li Miao said bluntly while Zhang Yang was still being playful. Zhang Yang hated it the most when people mentioned him together with girls. In his eyes, girls were just troublesome creatures who often had crushes on him, which he couldn't stand. Whoever mentioned him together with a girl would absolutely not be tolerated by him and would directly make him furious.

  The people in front heard Li Hui say this and burst into laughter, Zhang Yang started to get out of control.

  Watching Zhang Yang get angry with himself, Li Miao continued: "When I see her, it's like seeing you, except for the different appearance, even the way of speaking and acting is exactly the same."

  "I don't believe it." Zhang Yang started thinking of dragging that girl over and giving her a good beating. These people were all his good brothers, he couldn't very well beat them up himself.

  "I remember you've met her, flirted with her, and yet you're so heartless, forgetting about it so quickly." Li Miao pretended to scold Yang Rui for not being worthy of her attention. Now that he thought about it, their personalities really did match. Perhaps he could not only help Yang Rui enter his social circle but also play matchmaker for his good friend and help him find love. In the future, Yang Rui would have to thank him. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his idea was great.

  "I've flirted with so many girls, how would I know which one it was?" Zhang Yang thought for half a day and still couldn't figure out who the girl was. It must be some flower crazy person who has been eyeing him for a long time, no need to know anyway. But being said by Li Miao like that, he wanted to dig her out and let those people who mocked him open their dog eyes and see that someone as charming as him wouldn't have any girl worthy of being mentioned in the same breath.

  "That girl knows how hard it is, Zhang Yang, you heartless man!" Chu Qi also joked along, he wasn't curious about the girl at all, he was only curious what Li Huan was up to, and wanted to know what would happen next, feeling like something fun might happen every day, but also a bit annoyed.
