Chapter 323: Mock Test
Her huge reaction shocked Min Ting.
Min Ting lowered his eyes and looked at her seriously. “You’re so agitated. Those who don’t know might think that you have a long-lost sister, and you’re eager to know about her.”
Feng Qin’s grip on his arm froze. “No!”
“I’m just curious.” There were no more loopholes in Feng Qin’s eyes. “As long as you’re a normal person, you would care that others mistook you for someone else, right?”
“You also know that my looks are considered top-notch in the entertainment circle. Then, if a woman who looks like me suddenly appears one day, who knows if my hard-earned career will be affected? Isn’t it normal for me to have a bigger reaction?”
Min Ting looked at her deeply and then smiled cynically. “You seem to have a point too.”
Feng Qin knew that he didn’t believe her.
However, it didn’t matter if he believed it or not now.
Most importantly, she wanted to know if Min Ting had really seen that woman.
“Third Young Master Min hasn’t answered my question. Have you really seen a woman who looks like me? Speaking of which, I was only saved by Third Young Master Min at that banquet thanks to her.” Feng Qin couldn’t exactly describe her feelings when this was mentioned. However, she felt a little stifled and relieved.
She didn’t know why her heart felt stifled, but she knew what she was glad about.
She was glad that she finally had news of that person.
As long as she was still alive, there was no need for her to come back and let the Feng Family suck her blood.
The Feng Family wished for another daughter to make a marital alliance. One could tell that from Feng Hua and Lu Yuan. The two of them only had one son and no daughter, so they adopted one from the side branch.
“There was indeed such a person. Looking at her from afar, you’re indeed a little similar to her. However, when I got closer to take a look, I realized that the two of you actually aren’t that similar. However, I’ve already walked over, so naturally, I can’t not do anything.”
“…” Feng Qin.
Min Ting wasn’t lying. At that time, he had walked far away. When he heard the commotion, he looked over and saw that the lights were dim. For a moment, he felt that Feng Qin looked like Xi Fengling[1].
At that time, he didn’t work with Min Rufeng and wasn’t familiar with Xi Fengling. He had only seen her a few times.
He didn’t have a deep relations.h.i.+p with Min Rufeng either, but she was Min Rufeng’s woman after all. Min Rufeng was his cousin after all. For no other reason, just because they were both members of the Min Family, he couldn’t just watch Min Rufeng’s woman get into trouble.
Although he didn’t know if his brain was fried at that time, he actually felt that a woman like Xi Fengling, who was rumored to be protecting Min Rufeng in the capital, would appear at that kind of banquet and was almost taken advantage of.
Could it be that he had drunk some alcohol that day and was slow-witted?
Feng Qin sighed after a long while, “Then I’m really lucky.”
Min Ting did not comment.
“Since you’ve got the wrong person, I’m sure you do know such a person. I wonder if it’s convenient to tell me her ident.i.ty? If there’s a chance, I really want to meet her in person to see if she really looks like me.”
Min Ting caressed her face. “Do you want to know so badly?”
Feng Qin’s expression remained unchanged as she smiled into his eyes. “Isn’t that normal?”
“Perhaps you can meet her when we return to the capital.”
Without giving Feng Qin a chance to speak, he lowered his head and kissed her lips. Feng Qin frowned slightly but did not push him away.
She was a qualified lover.
Moreover, she could sense that Min Ting didn’t want to say anything.
Since that was the case, she would put this matter aside for the time being. She would investigate when she had the chance. Perhaps, she could really meet her when she returned to the capital.
It was already good enough that she could hear some news about her.
***
Yan Jinyu and Yin Jiujin didn’t meet Min Ting again, even though they only left the resort at six on Sunday afternoon.
He heard from the resort manager that Feng Qin was going to film and Min Ting had work to do. Seeing that the two of them were not leaving the room for a long time, he did not disturb them and left first.
Yan Jinyu had already called Min Rufeng. Indeed, it was as she thought. Min Rufeng preferred to investigate personally.
Min Rufeng didn’t intend to tell Xi Fengling about this for the time being. He had the same thoughts as Yan Jinyu. He would only tell her after he confirmed it so that she wouldn’t be happy for nothing again.
***
On Monday, Yan Jinyu went to cla.s.s as usual. She had indeed found a new joy. She watched dramas seriously every day until Wednesday when the 10th mock test of Year Three began.
The test paper came from the front and was pa.s.sed to the back. Tan s.h.i.+yun even gestured to Yan Jinyu to cheer her on.
Yan Jinyu took the test paper, kept one and pa.s.sed one to Bo Lang.
During today’s exam, Bo Lang didn’t sleep on his desk as usual. However, judging from the others’ reaction, they didn’t seem to be surprised.
Yan Jinyu then realized that he was the top student in the cohort. How could he be the top student if he didn’t take the exam?
She glanced at the test paper and then ignored it.
It was also not appropriate to take out her phone or tablet for school exams. Yan Jinyu could only support her chin and stare out of the window in a daze.
Bo Lang glanced at her but didn’t say anything. He took a pen and did the test.
He finished it in half an hour and continued to sleep on the table.
However, Yan Jinyun kept glancing in Yan Jinyu’s direction. Seeing that she had no intention of writing, she frowned a few times.
In the end, she sighed softly like an old mother who was worried sick.
Feng Yuan also looked at Yan Jinyu a few times, but he didn’t say anything.
A bottom-feeder had no right to criticize others.
Needless to say, Yan Jinyun had brought the highlighted important information to Feng Yuan these few days. He had learned a lot from reading it every day during cla.s.s.
He was not stupid. He was just too lazy to learn it in the past.
Now that he had put in the effort and had the guidance of a top student, how could it not be effective?
“Yan Jinyu, aren’t you going to do the test?” About half an hour before the end of the test, the form teacher, Xiao Qun, who was invigilating, walked down from the podium and stopped at the last table to ask softly.
Yan Jinyu retracted her gaze from the window and looked up. Her gaze met Xiao Qun’s.
She didn’t say anything and just smiled.
She seemed to be saying that he was asking the obvious.
Xiao Qun adjusted his gla.s.ses on his nose bridge and looked at her through the gla.s.ses with a sharp gaze for a second.
However, it quickly disappeared.
“You can fill in a few Chinese words in test papers as long as you can read. If not, you can always write your name and student number. Don’t hand in a blank paper.”
After saying that, he walked past to look at the others.
Yan Jinyu looked at Xiao Qun, who had turned and left, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.
Tsk, knowing that she was already suspicious, he probably couldn’t sit still anymore.
It suited her. Otherwise, she would be bored to death.
Of course, she didn’t hand in a blank paper, but Yan Jinyu didn’t write much either.
She only wrote her name and student number before answering the multiple choice questions.
There were only a few multiple-choice questions on the Chinese language test paper, and she perfectly avoided the correct answers.
After the exam ended and the teacher kept the test papers, Tan s.h.i.+yun turned back, “Jinyu, how was it? How did you do?”
“So-so.”
“…” Bo Lang who saw her almost completely blank test paper.
When Tan s.h.i.+yun heard Yan Jinyu’s reply, she seemed to heave a sigh of relief. She smiled and said, “That’s good. Let’s continue to work hard for the math test in the afternoon!”
Seeing that Bo Lang was looking at Yan Jinyu, although she quickly retracted her gaze, Tan s.h.i.+yun still fell silent.
She looked at Bo Lang as if she had mustered up her courage. “B-Bo Lang, what about you? How did you do?”
Everyone looked at her.
It was normal for them as cla.s.smates to ask each other what they did after the examinations. However, that person was Bo Lang. Even though Tan s.h.i.+yun was the cla.s.s monitor, Tan s.h.i.+yun had barely spoken to Bo Lang in the past three years, other than collecting cla.s.s fees and other matters that required her to interact with her cla.s.smates.
She was also very afraid of Bo Lang. Why was she so abnormal today?
Could it be that she felt that Bo Lang’s att.i.tude towards Yan Jinyu was different and thought that Bo Lang had become easier to get along with?
A few days ago, there were indeed a few admirers of Bo Lang who had this understanding.
They felt that since Bo Lang could allow Yan Jinyu to be his deskmate and even took the initiative to talk to Yan Jinyu, perhaps he had changed and become easier to get along with.
Hence, they came over to give him lunch boxes and gifts. Some people even asked him questions.
However, after a few people were frightened away by Bo Lang’s bad temper, no one dared to take the risk again.
Tan s.h.i.+yun was sitting at the front desk. She should know the situation very well.
Wasn’t she afraid that Bo Lang would give her a cold shoulder and embarra.s.s her now?
On the other hand, the person in question, Bo Lang, slowly looked up at Tan s.h.i.+yun. His face was still cold and sullen. No one knew if he was angry or not.
However, many people were still shocked when they saw him staring at Tan s.h.i.+yun.
If they remembered correctly, Bo Lang didn’t even look at those people who came to provoke him when he used violence to chase them away, right?
He was like this now…
He was looking at Tan s.h.i.+yun seriously, right?!
Tan s.h.i.+yun didn’t look away either.
She seemed to be trembling and afraid, but if one looked closely, they would notice that there was no fear for Bo Lang in her eyes.
She met Bo Lang’s gaze directly.
She did not dodge.
Yan Jinyu didn’t hurry to pack her things and leave. She supported her chin and looked at them with interest.
She seemed to have found something interesting again.
Bo Lang and Tan s.h.i.+yun naturally sensed Yan Jinyu’s actions.
Tan s.h.i.+yun was stunned and realized that she had lost her composure. She was about to retract her gaze and explain her actions when Bo Lang looked at her and said, “I’m fine.”
“Just like before.”
It could be understood that he answered the first sentence because they were in the same cla.s.s and Tan s.h.i.+yun was the cla.s.s monitor, but when he added the last sentence, they were shocked.
That was not all.
The person closest to her even heard Bo Lang say to Yan Jinyu, “Don’t touch her.”
After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the cla.s.sroom.
The people who heard him were stunned.
What did that mean?
Was he asking Yan Jinyu not to touch Tan s.h.i.+yun?
But why did Yan Jinyu touch Tan s.h.i.+yun for no reason?
Most importantly, was Bo Lang protecting Tan s.h.i.+yun?!
Only Tan s.h.i.+yun seemed to be stunned on the spot.
Then she chuckled as if she had suddenly figured something out.
She looked up at Yan Jinyu again.
She was a little surprised, but she felt that it was reasonable.
The number one killer, Chi, had become famous at 10 years old and could destroy Ghost Slaughter Island at 15 years old. It was not strange that she knew about her and Bo Lang.
