Young Master Shen pushed Zhang Mi into the car, and Zhang Mi started to struggle. But before she opened the door, Young Master Shen hit the accelerator and the car leapt forward.
"Sc.u.m, let me out!" Zhang Mi screamed and kicked him.
Young Master Shen dodged and said, "You"re crazy! Do you want to die? Sit well."
"Where do you want to take me?" Zhang Mi calmed down and asked him.
Young Master Shen looked at her with disgust and said, "Look at you like that. Do you think I will take you to the hotel?"
"Hehe, I don"t know who left a child in my body." Before Xin Qing left, she had told Zhang Mi that Young Master Shen already knew she had aborted the child. Zhang Mi did not care about him. However, the man clearly knew it was because of him that she experienced abortion and brought harm to her body at such a young age. Yet he did not feel guilty and dared to do this to her.
Young Master Shen hit the brake and the car stopped at the side of the road with a harsh sound. He turned to Zhang Mi and said, "Now that we are frank to each other, let us make it clear."
"Is there anything to say? I will pretend I had been bitten by a dog." Zhang Mi sneered and flipped her hair.
Young Master Shen rubbed his eyebrows. "Can you talk like a normal person?"
"Well, what do you want to say?" Zhang Mi turned to look at him.
Young Master Shen said seriously, "The thing between us was an accident, but it is true that I bring harm to your body and I can compensate you."
Seeing Zhang Mi staring at him, he explained in a hurry, "Don"t misunderstand. I didn"t send you away like those women. You are a friend of Xiao Qingqing, so you are also my friend. I treat you as a friend. So, I want to compensate you."
"Moreover, even if I say I will be responsible and let"s get married, you won"t agree, will you?"
"c.r.a.p, who will marry a sc.u.m..."
"Hey! Are you cursing me again?" Young Master Shen raised an eyebrow.
Zhang Mi curled her lips and said, "You"re not my type."
"That"s just right, we are not each other"s type. So... shall we stop arguing in the future when we meet?"
Zhang Mi nodded awkwardly. In fact, there was really no great conflict between them. Of course, except the time after they were drunk. No one could tell who made the first move.
"Then I will send you home now?" Young Master Shen felt that it was more difficult to handle Zhang Mi than to have a fight.
Zhang Mi glared at him and added, "I haven"t eaten yet!"
Young Master Shen turned the steering wheel and drove the car out. Zhang Mi peered at him and said, "I want to have barbecue."
"I"m just being polite. How do you know that I will definitely take you to dinner?" Young Master Shen threw her a despising glance.
Zhang Mi grinned and said, "They all say that you never refuse a woman, do you?"
"I don"t refuse beautiful women. Are you one of them?"
Zhang Mi kicked him and said, "Get away. Just drive!"
Early in the morning, Xin Qing woke up under the thick quilt. For some time, she couldn"t figure out where she was. Her mind came back to her when she felt the heating in the room. This was France, and now she was alone. She lifted the quilt and stretched her arms, giving herself a cheerful gesture.
"Come on! Cla.s.s begins today. I must fight!"
After getting dressed, she heated the porridge from last night and two steamed stuffed buns in the microwave. Then, she took her bag and went out.
There were a total of 30 students in their cla.s.s, only one Chinese. She later learned that there was only one Chinese among all the new students this year.
In the first cla.s.s, the teacher introduced representative designs of CK and asked everyone to write down their own thoughts on these works. Xin Qing knew that this was the placement test.
The college"s curriculum was very loose. There were two cla.s.ses every morning. In the afternoon, students were free to go to the workshop and design works with various fake gems. Compared with rigid college teaching, CK paid more attention to students" practice and experience.
The college"s restaurant was cheap and the food was delicious. She decided to go back and cook for herself in the evening and eat in the college at noon. Unexpectedly, she met Meyer. This time she almost didn"t recognize him. Meyer was wearing a red pattern robe and looked like a Muslim.
"You..." Xin Qing wanted to laugh. "What is this dress?"
Meyer smiled, embarra.s.sed, "I only have inspiration when dressed like this."
Xin Qing realized. This was probably because people working with creation all had their own hobby. But she did not find such a strange hobby of her.
It was raining when they finished lunch and began to leave school. Meyer lent his umbrella to Xin Qing because he had to stay in school in the afternoon.
"There is a lot of rain in France this month. You"d better bring an umbrella with you."
Xin Qing took the umbrella awkwardly and said, "Thank you, I will bring you back tomorrow."
"It doesn"t matter. I have another one!" Meyer waved at her. "Be careful. I need to go back to the cla.s.sroom."
Xin Qing walked home with the umbrella. When she was at the corner, she saw a kitten running to the middle of the road. Afraid that the cat would be hit by the car, she stepped over and tried to get it to the roadside. Just then, a car rushed over at a fast speed.
With a harsh sound of the brake, the car stopped at less than a centimeter away from Xin Qing. A man who looked like a driver got off and shouted at her angrily, "Why do you suddenly rush to the road?"
Xin Qing was sitting in the rain, but the kitten had disappeared. She stood up and checked the bag to see if it got wet, and then apologized.
"Sorry, it"s my bad."
The driver still wanted to say something. At this time, the rear door opened. A man got off. He held the umbrella carefully and put one hand on the roof of the car. Then another man got off. When Xin Qing saw him, her heart missed a beat.
The man was very tall, with a short light brown hair. He looked very good, having a pair of deep and charming blue eyes.
This was not the point. The point was that when Xin Qing saw him, she felt that he looked like Ying Qingcang. But with a second look, she found that they were not the same type of person at all. The man"s mouth was always upturned and he looked at her with soft eyes.
Ying Qingcang was always like a proud lion. He would never have such a peaceful gesture.
"Miss, are you okay?" He asked Xin Qing. His voice was the same as his look, making people feel comfortable and quiet.
Xin Qing quickly shook her head, "I"m really sorry for the trouble."
"Don"t say this, but be careful next time. Don"t suddenly rush out. The cat"s movements can be much faster than you." He smiled and looked at a big tree by the road. Xin Qing followed his eyes to that direction and saw the kitten licking its paws on the trunk.
"Hehe!" Xin Qing was even more embarra.s.sed, and didn"t know what to say for a while.
The man saw the water on her clothes and proposed, "You have to hurry home to change clothes, or you will catch a cold. Shall I give you a ride?"
"No, no, thank you!" Xin Qing quickly picked up the umbrella and said, "My house is very near. I will be there soon. Thank you. I won"t waste your time."
The man nodded and turned to the car. Xin Qing stood on the roadside to make way for the car. After the car left, she took a long breath and quickly went home. Once at home, she threw herself into the bathtub. She thought of the man before, who must be a very rich man because of his car. But he was so polite, much better than someone.
Realizing that she was thinking about Ying Qingcang again, Xin Qing stood up angrily and wiped her body. Don"t think about him. Why did I always think about him? Maybe he was having fun now!
The more she said she was not thinking about him, the more jealous she was. So she dropped the towel and went downstairs to get herself something to eat.
The teacher gave them three days, and everyone had to hand in their thoughts by then. Of course, you could also ignore it. The college would not care, but you would have no score.
There was a new situation. When the teacher collected their homework, he told them if they did a good job they would be able to partic.i.p.ate in the design of a custom-made jewelry for the guests. This news made everyone very excited. The black girl named Ka.s.s explained to Xin Qing after the cla.s.s.
"I don"t know about your work. Many people here have training experience in CK before. The one with the best score was Eva, who was causing trouble for you that day, and Dianne. In the training cla.s.s, Dianne was the first, Eva was always behind her. I heard that Dianne is a lady from a British n.o.ble family."
Xin Qing couldn"t recall such a person in the cla.s.s.
"She hasn"t come yet!" Said Ka.s.s. "It"s a bit of a thing at home. She takes a few days off. So she"ll miss this opportunity."
Eva just came over. Seeing that Ka.s.s was smiling so happily, she laughed at her, "Even if Dianne won"t come, it will not be your turn. This time, I must be the one. You"d better not to think about it." She deliberately walked along the desk so as to kick Xin Qing"s pen to the ground, and then left with a smile.
Xin Qing picked up the pen. Ka.s.s snorted at the back of Eva, "No one is like her. How could she be so shameless and say that!" She looked at Xin Qing again and asked, "Are you alright?"
Xin Qing shook her head, "If the dog bites you, will you give it a bite, too?"
Ka.s.s laughed at these words, "Is this an old Chinese saying? It"s interesting!"
Xin Qing smiled. She packed up the things and left. A week later, the teacher announced the result. Eva was selected. She turned back and smirked at Xin Qing when the teacher said something else.
"There is another student, whose thoughts and ideas are very interesting. Although she doesn"t have much experience, we still chose her, Xin Qing!"
Ka.s.s squeezed at Xin Qing happily. Eva threw her an ugly look.
"Teacher! I don"t want to work with the Chinese." Eva stood up. She didn"t believe that the school would give up students like her.
The teacher glanced at her and said slowly, "Then I"ll a.s.sume you abstained. We"ll chose another student."
"What... what?" Eva didn"t believe what she heard. But the teacher ignored her and went straight to the list. "Let me see, which one is behind..."
Eva was fl.u.s.tered and quickly shouted, "Teacher, I"ll partic.i.p.ate! I won"t abstain."
The teacher glanced at her and asked, "Oh? You don"t want to work with the Chinese, do you?"
"I... I was joking." Eva squeezed a fake smile.
