Seventeen Again: The Sweet Life with My Family

Chapter 14

At that moment, Wei Xiao was trying his best to contain his frustration. He had been accustomed to traveling first-class since he was young, but now he was stuck in the cramped economy class. He also had a feeling that his grandfather was going to teach him a lesson, and he couldn’t help but worry about his future life abroad for the next few years.

Huang Yue only found out on Friday that Wei Xiao had already gone overseas from the other rich second-generation heirs. She was burning with anxiety. She hadn’t hooked up with Wei Xiao and didn’t even know his phone number. Why did he go overseas?!

Huang Yue couldn’t sit still anymore and started looking for Wen Nian again.

Wen Nian was already used to rushing out of the classroom the moment the teacher dismissed the class. Huang Yue was unable to stop her at all. Because Huang Yue didn’t want to be in a crowd of people in the cafeteria, she had to wait in the classroom on an empty stomach for half an hour.

Seeing Wen Nian enter the classroom after her meal, Huang Yue hurriedly stopped her. “Wen Nian.”

Wen Nian looked at Huang Yue with the same smile she showed previously. “What’s wrong with Huang Yue?”

Huang Yue looked at Wen Nian, who was smiling foolishly. She felt a bit shaken by the thought of suspecting that Wen Nian had deliberately set her up to be caught by Big Voice Li. She restrained her emotions and smiled, “Wen Nian, why have you been ignoring me recently? Are you still angry that I helped you collect your birthday gift?”

Wen Nian shook her head and said seriously, “I’m not that petty. I just want to focus on my studies. I think Teacher Li is right. That night, I went back and told my parents that you suggested I drop out of school to work and they almost beat me to death!”

After saying that, she looked at Huang Yue with a helpless expression and continued, “By the way, you’d better not come to my house. If my parents see you, they might even beat you up. They believe that ever since I became friends with you in high school, I lost my interest in studying and won’t let me hang out with you. So, I need to focus on my studies first and catch up with my results before I can hang out with you. That way, my parents won’t be able to say that you’re affecting my studies.”

Wen Nian’s words revealed two pieces of information. Huang Yue had asked her to drop out of school and work. Her declining grades also had something to do with Huang Yue.

It was the weekend break tomorrow, and they would be able to go home after class in the afternoon. They didn’t have to stay in school for evening self-study, so more students would stay in the classroom to study on Fridays.

Some students with sharp ears heard their conversation and were reminded of what had happened during evening self-study session. They asked in surprise, “Huang Yue, the person Teacher Li was talking about that night was you?”

“Oh my god, Huang Yue actually encouraged her classmate to drop out of school.”

“I guess Wen Nian is interested too. Otherwise, why would Huang Yue give her such ideas?”

“You can’t say that. Although Wen Nian’s grades have indeed declined, the fact that she was able to get first place means that her learning ability is not bad. Before I was assigned to the same class as her in Year One, she was quite diligent in the first two months. Her grades plummeted after she started hanging out with Huang Yue.”

“We’re all classmates. Maybe Huang Yue had good intentions. Who doesn’t know Wen Nian’s temper? She hasn’t been very likeable, and Huang Yue was able to tolerate her because she was gentle enough.”

“I find it strange. We’re both having fun, but not only did Huang Yue’s results not decline, she even made it into the top 100 of the cohort in the last exam.”

When Huang Yue heard everyone’s whispers, she became afraid that the persona she had painstakingly built would collapse. She was also a little anxious. She secretly glared at Wen Nian and quickly thought of how to salvage her image. “Wen Nian, I only thought of a way for you because you wanted a good life. You even owe my father a favor. Once you enter the entertainment industry, you’ll become a celebrity. You won’t be working. What nonsense are you spouting?”

Wen Nian frowned and said innocently, “Of course. Who doesn’t want to live a good life? Is it wrong to want to live a good life?”

After saying that, she repeated what Li Fang had taught her that day. “I think Teacher Li is quite right. My parents also think so. We can do whatever we want at our age, but we’re still at the age of learning. Even if we have a future as celebrities, we don’t necessarily have to drop out of school now. I plan to attend university and learn the necessary skills to bring good works to the audience.”

Some students who were studying after their meal entered the class one after another. They learned the entire story from the students who had been observing the situation. There were more than 50 students in the class, and a few of them had already seen through Huang Yue’s hypocritical behavior.
