The drive was long and stuffy, and Ling Nua
uan tried her best not to puke as she endured the tumble in her stomach. However, the scenery outside the window was so unfamiliar, and the people around were also unfamiliar.
Ling Nua
uan was holding onto her phone. Suddenly, she heard a text message coming from her phone. She quickly opened it to take a look.
The uncomfortable feeling was like being cured. It was Mu Weicheng. Even though it was just a simple concern, wanting to know where she was, Ling Nua
uan felt that it was the motivation for her to persevere.
As the sky darkened, the Mr. Driver got off the high speed and entered a small town. He stopped in front of a hotel, because tonight, the car was not going to go on the road.
Ling Nua
uan dragged a suitcase full of daily necessities out of the car and opened the door with her ID. She was exhausted beyond belief.
"Thank you!" Suddenly, she heard Xia Ninglan"s voice behind her. Turning around, she saw a boy holding her luggage and helping her push into the elevator.
Ling Nua
uan made room and glanced at Xia Ninglan. Xia Ninglan had a good relations.h.i.+p with her before, but now, a complicated enmity appeared between the two of them.
Ling Nua
uan quickly looked away and heard Xia Ninglan say, "You guys shouldn"t have eaten your fill in the service area, right? I"ll treat you guys to di
er after we"re done. It"s really nice to meet you all."
"Ning Lan, you must be rich at home, right? Why is rich girl ru
ing to such a remote area to teach? My heart is beautiful. " The boy who carried her suitcase immediately smiled and praised her.
The reason Xia Ninglan was deemed rich was because the things she had on her body were all very expensive. Wearing over three thousand shoes, a hundred thousand watch, and a twenty thousand backpack. These were all things that ordinary people could not afford, therefore, Xia Ninglan"s ident.i.ty was confirmed through what she had on her body, so she must be the daughter of a rich family.
In comparison, Ling Nua
uan was much more low-key. She was only a popular brand and had a very popular price tag. Everyone felt that her family background was below average.
This was a society that was sometimes so realistic that people would use an item on a person"s body to determine her status.
"No, my house is normal." Xia Ninglan immediately became modest. As she said this, she glanced at Ling Nua
uan guiltily. Previously, when she was on friendly terms with Ling Nua
uan, she told Ling Nua
uan about the situation of her family.
Ling Nua
uan pretended not to be listening to them and took out her cell phone to play.
Ling Nua
uan took a shower first after entering the hotel. While she was blow-drying her hair, she heard a knock on the door. She asked who it was. It was a few university students who had come this time. She opened the door.
"Ling Nua
uan, do you want to go down and eat something with me? Ning Lan wants to treat me to a meal." one of them asked with a smile.
Ling Nua
uan shook her head. "I"m not going. I"m a little tired. You guys go ahead."
They didn"t say much and directly went down. Ling Nua
uan couldn"t help but mock her. Why didn"t she realize that Xia Ninglan was so sociable in the past?
It seemed that she really didn"t know much about her, and she didn"t want to know anymore.
Ling Nua
uan saw that there was instant noodles in the hotel. She pla
ed to make some for the noodles. As she was boiling water, her phone rang. When she saw the caller ID, she couldn"t help but smile.
"Hey!" She laid down on the bed with her head held high. Her voice was lazy and very moving to listen to.
"Where?" The man"s deep voice was filled with concern.
"I"m at the hotel now. I"m going to sleep after eating something. I"m so tired." Ling Nua
uan replied with a smile.
"Traveling a long distance is already very tiring. Do you want to rest earlier?" Mu Weicheng"s heart ached. He didn"t want to disturb her rest again.
"No, I want to eat while listening to your voice." Ling Nua
uan immediately stood up and switched on her handphone. Just as she was about to remove her mask, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
Ling Nua
uan was startled for a moment, but then she heard Lin Bo"s voice coming from outside the door: "Warm, are you asleep yet?" I packed a dumpling for you and bought you some fruits. "
She quickly walked over and opened the door. Lin Bo was a little embarra.s.sed as he stuffed the thing he was holding over to her: "You must be tired today. Eat something and rest well. Tomorrow is also a long day."
"Lin Bo, why did you buy so many things for me? Thank you so much. How much money, I"ll ??"
"No need, no need, I just randomly bought some. Hurry up and eat, you must be hungry." Lin Bo retreated back with a blush.
Ling Nua
uan couldn"t help but extend her hand to touch her hair. With an u
atural smile, she said, "Then thank you very much. I"ll treat you to a meal another day."
"You"re welcome!" Seeing that she accepted it, Lin Bo immediately opened the door and happily entered the room.
Ling Nua
uan carried the fruit and dumplings back to the table. When she saw that her phone was still turned on, her mind exploded.
"Mu Weicheng, are you still listening?" Ling Nua
uan quickly asked.
"Yes, I heard it too. Someone cares about you a lot." The man"s voice didn"t seem to be as gentle as before, and there was still an indescribable sulk in it.
Ling Nua
uan"s pretty face turned anxious as she quickly explained, "Don"t misunderstand, even if we"re friends who came together to be charity friends, they"re still students in school."
"Oh!" The man only replied with one word.
Ling Nua
uan didn"t know if she should explain more, but it sounded like Mu Weicheng was really angry.
"He cares so much about you. When he gets here, I"ll treat him to a meal to show my grat.i.tude." The atmosphere was silent. Suddenly, the man"s voice sounded again.
Ling Nua
uan was at a loss what to do. Hearing his words, she burst out laughing.
"Sure, but, what status do you have to be grateful?" Ling Nua
uan asked with a smile.
Mu Weicheng was silent for two seconds before he replied: "Your boyfriend."
"Really?" Ling Nua
uan was incredibly happy.
"Of course, other than this ident.i.ty, there won"t be any other status between you and me." Mu Weicheng suddenly became overbearing. Perhaps he really did suffer a bit of a shock, causing him to no longer be able to hold on.
Ling Nua
uan laughed with incomparable happiness. "Are you jealous?"
The man was speechless.
"No, I believe you." Mu Weicheng lowered his voice.
Ling Nua
uan snorted disapprovingly. "You believe me, but I don"t believe you. You probably don"t know this yet. Someone went to be a teacher for you."
"Who is it?" Mu Weicheng was surprised to hear about this.
"Xia Ninglan, do you remember her? I don"t know when she started liking you, but this time she came with me in the same car. Look at you. These were the words from Ling Nua
uan"s heart, she was really depressed.
Seeing that she was angry, Mu Weicheng quickly explained, "You really misunderstood me. I have never expressed anything to her, and I don"t know what she will do for me."
"Alright, don"t explain, I"m not listening right now. When we get there, show me your ability, and I"ll remind you. If you disappoint me, I"ll immediately buy a ticket and return home. I"ll never see you again." Ling Nua
uan had a really good temper. She really couldn"t stand to see her boyfriend and gave other women hope.
Mu Weicheng was shocked by her words and quickly promised: "Warm, please trust me okay? I really didn"t do anything to let you down. "
"For the time being, I"ll believe you." Ling Nua
uan said as she took a bite out of the dumpling and praised, "It smells so good. Food is indeed the most comforting."
Mu Weicheng: "..."
Ling Nua
uan said to her phone while she ate, "Let"s leave it at this for now. I want to see something and I"m hanging up." Mu Weicheng: "..."
Didn"t they say that they would eat when they heard his voice? It was just a few minutes ago, but this woman had already forgotten. Where was the most basic trust between people?
"Alright, go to bed after eating." Mu Weicheng quickly said a few words of concern.
"Got it!" Ling Nua
uan directly hung up. The next second, she started a movie. While enjoying the delicious food, she also enjoyed the visual impact.
Mu Weicheng stared at his phone absentmindedly for a few seconds. Then, he sighed.
It seemed that he had overestimated his place in that little thing"s heart. There was no helping it, since Ling Nua
uan was still childish. She would definitely be able to contain all of her bad temper.
