Chapter 16: Splashing Water on Su Yurou

Listening to the conversation between Lu Chizhou and Su Yurou, Tang Ning felt extremely disgusted. Finally, she stopped and walked back in front of the two people.

Under everyone’s gaze, Tang Ning took out the water bottle from her schoolbag and poured the water directly at Su Yurou.

“Ah!”

Su Yurou was splashed with water, and her school uniform was soaked.

Seeing Su Yurou being bullied, Lu Chizhou immediately shouted angrily, “Tang Ning! What are you doing?”

Tang Ning said coldly, “You don’t have to feel guilty now.”

After saying that, Tang Ning turned around and left.

Lu Chizhou wanted to take action, but the security guard at the school gate happened to come out, and Su Yurou could only cry out in grievance.

Tang Ning splashed water on Su Yurou at the school gate, and immediately became a hot topic in the school.

Even her classmates looked at Tang Ning with strange looks in their eyes. Everyone tacitly believed that Tang Ning was jealous of Su Yurou becoming Lu Chizhou’s girlfriend.

Tang Ning was unable to get the love she wanted, so she attacked him angrily at the school gate.

However, as it was near the end of the semester, no one wanted to cause trouble. The workload in the second year of high school was already heavy, and in the end, everyone treated this incident as something fun to talk about during breaks.

As a result, the relationship between Su Yurou and Lu Chizhou became increasingly intimate. They even secretly kissed in the corner of the playground.

For this reason, the class teacher and the dean of studies gave them a lot of ideological education.

But the teenagers were rebellious, and Lu Chizhou and Su Yurou did not listen to discipline at all. Due to the status of the Lu family, the head teacher could not do anything to Lu Chizhou.

Not only that, Lu Chizhou also protected Su Yurou and publicly warned the head teacher not to cause trouble for Su Yurou.

Lu Chizhou’s action made the entire grade call him a real man, except for Tang Ning, who sneered.

As time went by, the class teacher and the dean of studies no longer cared and allowed Su Yurou and Lu Chizhou to mess around on campus. If things got out of hand, the worst that could happen was that the two would be expelled.

There were only three days left until the end of the semester. During lunch break, the atmosphere in the class was very tense. Since Lu Yanchen came to the Tang family, his mental state had become very good, and even his academic performance in the monthly exam was surprisingly good.

Although Lu Yanchen was already among the top five in his grade before, he was now firmly in first place.

With Lu Yanchen’s help, Tang Ning’s grades were consistently in the top ten in the grade.

“Have you heard? The Lu family is going bankrupt!”

“You are talking nonsense. How could the Lu family go bankrupt? The Lu family is a wealthy family in Lincheng.”

“Really? I heard from my dad that since Lu Chizhou’s father died and owed a lot of foreign debts, the Lu family has been in financial difficulty and has actually run out of money!”

…

There was constant discussion about the Lu family in the class.

The news that the Lu family was about to go bankrupt could no longer be concealed.

Tang Ning had previously asked her father to withdraw all the funding for the Lu family. Now the Lu family was isolated and helpless. If they couldn’t find a new investor within a month, then the Lu family would be finished.

Lu Chizhou could no longer keep his title as one of the four young masters of Lincheng.

At this time, Su Yurou was walking into the classroom. Recently, she and Lu Chizhou always sneaked out of school to date, and skipping classes had become a common occurrence.

Seeing Su Yurou walk into the classroom, Wang Ting immediately stepped forward and gossiped, “Yurou, did you know that Young Master Lu’s family is going bankrupt?”

“Bankrupt?” Su Yurou smiled. “Stop it, Chizhou just took me to the car dealership to look at cars, saying that he wants to give me a Mercedes-Benz when I become an adult next year. If I’m going bankrupt, can he just give me a car?”

Hearing this, Wang Ting finally breathed a sigh of relief. “I said, how could the Lu family, with such a large business, go bankrupt?”

Soon, the people around looked at Su Yurou with envy again.

“Yu Rou, Master Lu is so nice to you that he even took you to the car dealership to look at cars. I can’t even imagine it.”

“Really, but some people don’t have this blessing. She even said before that she wanted to break off the engagement with Master Lu.

I think it was just a lie to save face. Master Lu would never fall for her.”

When the classmates around heard that Lu Chizhou was going to buy a car for Su Yurou, they all came over.

Tang Ning felt that her ears were disturbed, so she picked up the test paper and walked out of the classroom.

Wang Ting watched Tang Ning leave the classroom before she spoke, “Tang Ning has been picked up and dropped off by car recently. I don’t know where she got so much money to buy so many luxury cars.”

“Isn’t she a poor student? Could it be that her family is actually very rich?”

“No way, if she is not a poor student, then who is the poor student in our grade?”

Hearing the other people’s discussions, Su Yurou was afraid that everyone would suspect her, so she pretended to be calm and said, “I heard… Tang Ning’s father is a driver for some wealthy family.

Tang Ning’s father’s boss was away on a business trip recently, so Tang Ning was able to have a luxury car to pick her up.”

“So that’s how it is. I was wondering how come Tang Ning used to walk to school, but suddenly she was picked up by a luxury car? It turns out her father used his boss’ car to pick her up.”

“Tsk, I thought Tang Ning was some big shot; turns out she was just pretending!”

Seeing other students looking down on Tang Ning, Su Yurou felt a little flustered. However, she couldn’t let anyone know that she was the only poor student in her sophomore year; otherwise, all the image she had worked so hard to build up in school would be ruined.

In the reading corner on the floor, Tang Ning was doing her homework seriously when a bottle of milk suddenly appeared in front of her.

Tang Ning looked up and realized that the person coming was Lu Yanchen.

“Aunt Tang asked me to give it to you.”

Lu Yanchen’s tone was calm, and Tang Ning took the milk naturally. She asked, “When did my mother give it to you? How come I didn’t know?”

Ever since Lu Yanchen went to the Tang family, he went to and from school with Tang Ning every day. Tang Ning clearly remembered that she left the house with Lu Yanchen today.

How could her mother let Lu Yanchen give her milk?

Tang Ning quickly guessed that this was something Lu Yanchen had saved up to buy.

Tang Ning hadn’t eaten lunch, so her stomach was already growling with hunger. She said awkwardly, “I’m trying to lose weight, so drinking milk at noon isn’t a good idea.”

“Skim milk, you can drink it.”

Hearing this, Tang Ning couldn’t wait to insert the straw into the milk bottle.

The sweet and milky taste made Tang Ning very satisfied.

After losing weight for so many days, her appetite has obviously decreased, and she seems very satisfied even when drinking a sip of milk.

Seeing Tang Ning smile with satisfaction, Lu Yanchen, who was standing by, couldn’t help but smile a little too.

“Lu Yanchen, your grades are so good. Why did you go to Class F before? If you were in Class A, we could study together during breaks every day.”

After his rebirth, Tang Ning clearly realized the importance of learning.

The thing she regretted most in her previous life was marrying Lu Chizhou after graduating from high school and not continuing her studies. Otherwise, she would not have lost herself in marriage.

A top student like Lu Yanchen should enjoy better resources in Class A.

Lu Yanchen was silent for a moment and asked,

“Do you want me to go to Class A?”
