“Anran, is what the principal said true?” Zhao Xiaolei asked.
Lan Anran smiled, suddenly remembering the Zhao Family Banquet.
“Is the Zhao Family having a banquet?”
“Yeah, how did you know? My dad is celebrating his retirement and he is helping my brother get promoted. He is hosting a Durban banquet to help my brother find more resources and introduce his connections.”
Zhao Xiaolei spoke casually.
She was the only daughter of the Zhao Family and her brother was brought over from the welfare institute. He had a good character, was willing to work hard and improve. Coincidentally, she wasn’t interested in business, so her father let her brother take over. On the surface, he said that he would help Zhao Xiaolei take care of the family business, but in reality, everyone who knew would understand that he wanted to hand the family business over to Zhao Han.
“Will you be going too?”
Lan Anran asked seriously.
“I’m just going to join in the fun. My dad wants me to see if there are any suitable young masters from prestigious families at the banquet. Even if I don’t have someone that I like, we can still be friends, as long as it’s beneficial to the company, I have to attend.”
Zhao Xiaolei was helpless.
Lan Anran didn’t speak, wondering if she should go over. Wouldn’t her identity be exposed if she went? But she feared that her brother would be bullied if she didn’t go.
Lan Yaxin and the others from the other class were extremely nervous.
“Did you drop something?” Lan Yaxin asked cautiously.
“I don’t think so, we didn’t miss anything.”
Gu Qiu thought about her things nervously. There really wasn’t anything missing.
“It can’t be, were we discovered? It can’t be…”
Yang Qing was a little scared.
“I told you not to, but you insisted that it was alright. Great, now that we’re exposed, we’re going to be expelled!”
Gu Qiu grumbled.
“You didn’t object when I said that, but now you’re blaming me?”
Yang Qing was furious.
“Stop fighting, the most important thing now is to find out what’s in the office and whether it’s detrimental to us.”
Lan Yaxin looked at them impatiently.
These two pieces of trash only knew how to cause trouble for her and even implicated her!
“Then what do we do?”
Gu Qiu looked around nervously.
“Don’t act like a thief, what should we do? We can only go take a look again!”
Lan Yaxin thought for a while, and said.
“Now? What if it’s a trap?”
Gu Qiu spoke again.
“Are you stupid? We’ll take action at night. Don’t we know the password?”
Yang Qing knocked Gu Qiu’s head.
“Don’t be so nervous, even the dean can’t catch us. He still has to go home tonight right?”
Lan Yaxin smiled.
“Good, good!”
Gu Qiu comforted herself.
Lan Yaxin rolled her eyes at the two people in front of her. These two idiots, they can’t do anything!
It was dark and there was no one in the school. Lan Yaxin brought the two of them out of a classroom and spoke softly.
“The two of you should hurry. There isn’t anyone left now, so let’s see if it’s yours. Otherwise, come out. Hurry!”
Yang Qing walked forward carefully, unlocked the passcode secretly, and walked in. She shone the flashlight around but didn’t find anything.
“Gu Qiu, did you see that thing?”
Yang Qing asked softly.
“No, perhaps that old thing took it away. Let’s hurry, it’s too scary.”
Gu Qiu was so frightened that her voice trembled.
“Useless person, how could you be so frightened!?”
Yang Qing sneered.
“Hurry!”
Lan Yaxin hid in the corner and waved.
The three of them hurried out of the school.
The moment she returned home, she was scolded by Zhao Xiumei.
“You brat! You don’t do well outside and only know how to seduce men. Do you think you’re so great after your divorce?”
Zhao Xiumei pointed at Lan Anran’s forehead angrily and cursed. She wanted to stand up, but perhaps because she had been in the wheelchair for too long, her legs softened and she fell to the ground.
“Grandma, what did you say?”
Lan Anran smiled, but didn’t help Zhao Xiumei up.
“You brat! Hurry and help me up, you only know to laugh at me. Look at this!”
Zhao Xiumei threw the photos onto the ground.
Lan Anran lowered her head and saw it. It was a photo of her conversation with Lin Cheng. Someone had taken it and passed it to Zhao Xiumei. The only person who could have done this was that b*tch of a cousin.
“It’s just a photo, I was talking to a classmate. It’s nothing.”
Lan Anran didn’t mind.
“Nothing? You know what others are saying about you on the school’s forum. Yaxin showed it to me. You are really the Lan Family’s jinx!”
Zhao Xiumei couldn’t beat her, so she could only sit on the ground and curse.
“Forum?”
Lan Anran took out her phone and looked at the forums. As expected, there were photos of her and Lin Cheng, and they were even captioned.
“The new school beauty and the rich second-generation heir Lin Cheng look at each other with love. They meet at the staircase alone, there’s definitely a big fish!”
There were all kinds of comments, most of which were jealousy and many were attacking Lan Anran.
“Good-looking people steal questions and seduce boys.”
“What’s so great about her? Is she worthy of showing off her wealth?”
“I never expected her to be such a person!”
Lan Anran was furious. She was completely innocent, what did it have to do with her?
When Zhao Xiumei saw Lan Anran smile, she thought that she was being too provocative and became even more furious.
“You have no manners! You just got a divorce and you’re already seducing another man! I would break your legs if I was well!”
Zhao Xiumei cursed..
