Chapter 106: This is Merely the Beginning
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
“Crushed your spectacles?” Lin Menghan gave a puzzled expression as she tried to remember the incident.
Last night, she was tricked and forced into drinking too much hard liquor by a bunch of self-proclaimed entertainment producers and model agency managers. They were the kind of people who would lure and trick innocent girls to go to bed with empty promises.
After getting tipsy, she finally managed to find an excuse to leave the place. Then, she took a taxi home. However, halfway through, she felt sick and thus alighted the taxi. In a drunken stupor, she staggers to the riverside and threw up. She did not know if she really did crush the spectacles but if she did, she was curious as to why he stayed quiet about it during the incident.
Taking a second glance at Ling Yun, she felt that his eyes were crystal clear. Even when he stared at her chest, he did not squint at all. Hence, she felt like he was not myopic. What Lin Menghan did not realize was that Ling Yun was just trying to get some money out of her.
“Are you really myopic?” Lin Menghan looked at Ling Yun with a doubtful expression.
Why do you care if I really am myopic or not? I just saved your life, you should be grateful pretty lady!
Ling Yun was thinking in his mind.
“I am indeed myopic. But, I kinda got used to it, anyway what I meant was…” Ling Yun raised his right hand and formed a circle with his thumb and forefinger to show the money gesture.
To his horror, Lin Menghan was still clueless about the meaning behind his thick-skinned gesture. Still under the impression that Ling Yun was concern over his crushed spectacles she replied him with embarra.s.sment.
“I understand what you mean, you don’t have to explain. I’ll bring you to get a pair of new spectacles…”
“Ehm…” Ling Yun stuttered. He was the one who was confused now. He put his hands down and stood there in a daze.
How naive is this girl?
Ling Yun was shouting inside.
What’s a pair of b.l.o.o.d.y spectacles worth? I saved your life! Money! I want money not a pair of spectacles!
Lin Menghan then raised her ridiculously beautiful and fair hand and said, “Give me your phone.”
Initially, Ling Yun was worried that she would smash his phone. But, trusting his reflexes he eventually pa.s.sed his phone to her.
“Wow, so Ling Yun also uses the iPhone 5, huh?” one of the students in the crowd exclaimed when he saw Ling Yun take out his phone.
Paying no attention to the chatter, Lin Menghan took Ling Yun’s phone and dialed her number, hanging up once the call connected.
She smiled at Ling Yun before replying, “Okay, I dialed my number just now. Once I reach back, I’ll record your number and call you back. Ehm… To bring you to get a pair of new spectacles,” after finis.h.i.+ng her sentence, she returned Ling Yun his phone.
Ling Yun held back his anger. Inside, he was fuming.
When did I tell you that I wanted a new pair of spectacles?
“Alright, I won’t interrupt your study session any longer. Thanks again for rescuing me!” Lin Menghan exclaimed with a refres.h.i.+ng smile towards him. Even Ling Yun, who had high immunity, was stupefied by her beautiful smile. With a wave of her hand, she turned and left. Her entourage of followers naturally followed her and left the level, making a big commotion as they left.
“G.o.d d.a.m.n it, stupid girl. To think I even thought that I would be able to gain some benefits! Her head must be empty!” Ling Yun complained as he kept his phone in a huff.
As he raised his head, he realized that the corridor was now filled with students. All of their eyes were focused on him. Clearly, some of the late students must have seen Lin Menghan and went back to their cla.s.s to spread the word. In response to the glares of jealousy and stares of envy, Ling Yun held a nonchalant face as he returned to his cla.s.sroom.
Grade 12 Cla.s.s 6 had erupted into chaos. Everyone was all in deep conversation.
“Ling Yun actually went to find a prost.i.tute?”
“He even left his clothes at her house? To think that that prost.i.tute would even bring his clothes back to him.”
“Screw you. She is such beauty whose no different from a G.o.ddess who has descended to earth. She can’t possibly be a prost.i.tute!”
“But Ling Yun clearly shouted…”
“I say, something must be wrong with your head. Just cause he called her that doesn’t mean she is one right? Besides, Ling Yun is no fool. If she really is a prost.i.tute Ling Yun would never have said it out loud in front of everyone! He would lose his reputation.”
“That’s true, I bet that G.o.ddess must be a lady from an affluent family. That would explain her air of elegance and cla.s.s…”
“That’s right, even Cao Shanshan doesn’t have that kind of n.o.ble aura, how could she possibly be a prost.i.tute?”
“Anyways, Ling Yun really is unbelievable. Ordinary people like us will never reach them haha…”
“What?! Has my G.o.ddess left? No way, I haven’t even had my fill of looking at her. Why did she leave so quickly?” The male student that had fainted at the start got up and held his phone as he raced out of the cla.s.sroom.
As for Ling Yun, he had returned to his seat.
Zhang Dong nudged Ling Yun with his shoulder and looked at him cheekily.
“I say, Ling Yun, you’re quite the man aren’t you? Picking flowers everywhere you go huh? Tell me who was that beauty? What was she here for?”
Ling Yun looked at Zhang Dong with a bitter smile.
“You’re thinking too much. I’ve only met her once before and saved her life… She was here to return me my clothes and wallet…”
“My G.o.d, prince charming saving the damsel in distress?! Now tell me more, what exactly happened?”
…
Regaining her composure, Cao Shanshan was also convinced that it was impossible for that lady to be a prost.i.tute. That nitwit Ling Yun must have used the wrong term when addressing her.
That being said, Cao Shanshan was in a bad mood now. She lowered her head in silence as she flipped her book in frustration. Zhang Ling, on the other hand, bit down on her lips softly as she glanced repeatedly at Cao Shanshan, worrying for her in her heart. After all, Cao Shanshan is a very proud person. Her level of pride was so high that few people could comprehend it.
Her family, her beauty, her grades and even her future. She was proud of everything to the extent that there was no longer any need for her to blatantly express it through her actions or facial expression. It had become a different level of proudness. There was an air of pride that ordinary people could not mimic. Furthermore, the people around her all recognized and acknowledged this proud att.i.tude of her’s and thus few could be jealous of her. Zhang Ling was a textbook example. Some people were just favored by the heavens from birth. This was fate and nothing could change it. There was no need to be jealous since one can only follow fate.
However, today, at the very least in terms of looks, Lin Menghan had struck away part of Cao Shanshan’s pride. This was because even Zhang Ling, her loyal friend, had to admit that if Cao Shanshan got a 100 points in looks, Lin Menghan would top her with 110 points!
“Ling Yun that fella…” Zhang Ling was speechless.
The two girls had been joking and teasing each other just moments ago outside cla.s.s and yet as if to go against their wishes, this beauty appeared out of nowhere. Forget about Cao Shanshan, even Zhang Ling was feeling gloomy now.
“Humph!” Cao Shanshan huffed coldly.
“Shanshan are you angry?” Zhang Ling asked softly upon hearing her groan, taking special care not to step on the lion’s tail.
“Me angry? Why would I be angry when someone one finds him? It’s none of my business. Of course, I’m not angry!” Cao Shanshan replied, her tone flat and monotonous. Judging by her frowning face and her slightly pale complexion, she was not just angry. She was very angry. No matter how one looked at it this was an angry expression. Who was she trying to fool?
“How about I help you ask Ling Yun about their relations.h.i.+p?” Zhang Ling suggested softly.
Cao Shanshan raised her eyebrows.
“That’s his business, why would we even ask about it? No asking!”
“Fine, I won’t ask him then. As long as you’re not angry everything’s fine. What the h.e.l.l has Ling Yun been doing these few days anyway? Must be something unimaginable…”
Pondering for a moment, Zhang Ling seemed unconvinced about something.
“Shanshan, do you think that lady’s chest is natural? There is no way it can be so big and perky unless it has been treated right?”
This was clearly jealousy at work. After all, she was boasting about how eating papaya and drinking milk gave her her large chest a moment ago. To think that in the next instant she would find a lady with an even bigger chest. Of course she would be jealous!
Even though Cao Shanshan did not agree with Zhang Ling she did not rebut. She too was quite conscious about the matter thus instinctively chose to believe that Lin Menghan’s b.r.e.a.s.t.s were ‘man-made’. If such a round, big, perky and perfect pair of b.r.e.a.s.t.s were natural, how would other ladies be able to live with it?
“Plus, I bet her nose must have undergone some form of surgery too. Otherwise, there’s no way it can be that sharp…”
Seeing Cao Shanshan’s silent agreement, Zhang Ling started blurting out all her thoughts. These thoughts were the thoughts of all the girls of grade 12 cla.s.s 6.
However, to her surprise, Cao Shanshan shook her head and replied, “Her face is natural.”
“Okay, it’s already self-study time, the two cla.s.s representatives shouldn’t be talking. Let’s start revising…”
Cao Shanshan mind was in a mess, thus she decided not to stop the discussion there.
However, she could not help but groan with regret in her heart.
“Why am I so unlucky? Just right after I said that no girl would come to him, such a beauty actually came to him! This is killing me!”
The anger and regret in her heart were indescribable and hard to put into words. In actual fact, it didn’t matter what she thought of the incident for it is no more than just the opening act.
This was merely the beginning!
The two lessons in the afternoon ended in the blink of an eye. The moment the second period ended, the students left their cla.s.sroom Everyone was busy discussing last Sat.u.r.day’s incident and what happened this morning. At the same time, a pure white Maserati drives into the school campus.
After the second period, there was always a break of twenty minutes. Thus, it was the time where the campus would be the noisiest and busy. However, the moment the white Maserati pulled up in the campus, everyone froze and focused their attention on the car!
After parking the car, Murong Feixue lowered the car window and asked a nearby stunned male student, “Hi do you know how to get to Grade 12 Cla.s.s 6?”
It was as the male student was electrocuted as he staggered with his mouth agape
My G.o.d, what kind of amazing luck am I having today? First I met G.o.ddess, now it’s a beautiful city girl?
What excited him the most was the fact that both beauties initialed a conversation with him and that both asked for the way to cla.s.s 6!
