Bai Jing looked at Yan Rusheng and nodded politely before leaving . She strode in the direction of the convenience store .
“Hey, Bai…” Su Yue was about to call Bai Jing as her sudden departure had puzzled her .
Yan Rusheng cut across Su Yue . “Yueyue, I have something to tell you . It’s only for your ears . ”
He felt that he had to be explicit so she wouldn’t misunderstand him . Given her character, she always had these endless questions .
Su Yue nodded and looked away .
Yan Rusheng opened the car door and said to Su Yue, “Get in . ”
“Okay . ” Su Yue responded and entered the car . Yan Rusheng shut the door and went to the driver’s seat .
He sped up and the car left the campus in no time .
Bai Jing, who had just reached the convenience store, turned around and caught a glimpse of the champagne-colored Bentley .
She looked forlorn as she stood on the spot .
“Bai Jing . ”
A man’s voice disrupted Bai Jing, and it jolted her awake . She adjusted herself by bowing her head before turning around .
A man wearing a white shirt and black pants slowly strolled towards her . He was wearing gold-rimmed spectacles .
Bai Jing was trying to remember his face before speaking out . “Professor Zhao . ”
Zhao Zheng smiled as he went near Bai Jing . He adjusted his spectacles . “Isn’t Su Yue with you?”
Bai Jing pressed her lips and answered, “Her third brother came and fetched her . ”
She paused before continuing . “Professor Zhao, I need to get some stuff . Goodbye . ”
Su Yue had warned her to ignore him if they crossed paths .
She also felt that Professor Zhao gave her an uncomfortable feeling .
Bai Jing was about to turn around .
“Bai Jing . ” Zhao Zheng stopped her .
Bai Jing turned and glanced at him . “Is there anything else?”
Zhao Zheng grinned and said, “Yan Rusheng, Xuxu and I were classmates in middle and high school . We were even in the same class, so our friendship goes way beyond . ”
He was trying to flaunt his friendship with Xuxu and Yan Rusheng .
It was indeed something to brag about . But the way he phrased it made people feel like mocking him instead .
Bai Jing responded, but her face remained deadpan .
Zhao Zheng quietly surveyed Bai Jing . An ambiguous smile appeared on his face and he spoke once again . “The previous time when we had dinner together, Xuxu mentioned about you and asked me if there was any way of helping you get into A University . ”
Bai Jing was startled and her eyes gleamed . But she remained mum .
“You and Su Yue has just started school . Please look for me if you need help . Su Yue may be able to look for the principal since Yan Rusheng knows him . But if it’s you, it’s a different story . ”
He sounded as if he was trying to drive a wedge between her and Su Yue .
A shard seemed to have pierced through Bai Jing’s heart .
