299 Back to School

“Mr. Lin, don’t you want me to come back early?” Chu Ning sat comfortably on the sofa. She really wanted to tell Lin Hao the truth, and wondered how he would react.

“It’s a good thing that you’re back in school, but you shouldn’t publicize it. It’s not like you don’t know that someone in school is targeting you. Aren’t you asking for trouble by not wearing your school uniform?” Lin Hao glanced at Chu Ning and said helplessly.

“Did they make things difficult for you, Mr. Lin?” Chu Ning asked again.

“No, even the principal didn’t punish me for this, but this just goes to show the worst possible outcome.” Lin Hao sighed, then continued, “The school has completely given up on you.”

Lin Hao rubbed his face agonizingly. He was already prepared to be punished by the school, but Chu Ning’s leave didn’t seem to matter.

“That’s good. I’m going to class now. Mr. Lin, you don’t have to worry anymore. Everything is back to normal.” Chu Ning stood and left the office.

“You’ve got it settled?” Lin Hao hurriedly asked, seeing that Chu Ning was about to leave the office.

“From now on, no one in the school will, and no one will dare to, target me. Because I’m the owner of this place…”

Chu Ning’s last sentence trailed as she walked further and further away, so Lin Hao couldn’t hear her clearly.

Lin Hao looked at Chu Ning’s back and heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he pulled open a drawer, which contained a resume.

Lin Hao tore it into pieces and threw it into the trash can.

The moment Chu Ning appeared at the classroom door, she attracted the attention of almost all the students in the class. Some of the students were even talking about her.

It was the break of the second class, and they were feeling a little bored when Chu Ning, the topic of conversation, appeared.

“Did she get expelled? She just won the gold medal at the national physics competition. How could the school do this?”

“She’s not even wearing her school uniform. It seems like she really doesn’t want to stay in Jingyuan High School anymore.”

“Don’t say that. Do you also want to be given special treatment by the school? Chu Ning used to be so outstanding, but now she’s in such a miserable state!”

“Sigh, there’s still one more year before we can escape this place.”



Chu Ning ignored the complicated gazes of the people around her and went straight to her seat.

Xiaomi had texted Chu Ning to tell her that Ai Yan had deliberately knocked her books over.

“Chu Ning, you’re finally back.” When Xiaomi saw Chu Ning, she had lost her usual enthusiasm. Instead, she looked worried.

She had heard her classmates’ discussion. Chu Ning had suddenly taken leave and had now appeared without her school uniform. She probably would not be studying at Jingyuan High School anymore.

“What’s wrong? Who made you unhappy again?” Chu Ning looked uncertainly at Xiaomi and asked.

“They all said you were leaving…” Xiaomi was about to cry.

“That’s right, Chu Ning. If we really can’t do anything about it, we can go to the education bureau to report the situation. The school is really too much this time!” The students around her also spoke up indignantly.

“Alright, alright, don’t cry, Xiaomi. Aren’t I back now?” Chu Ning hugged Xiaomi and gently patted her shoulder, comforting her.

“But you’re going to leave soon.” Xiaomi began to sob. She couldn’t help feeling sad when she thought of Chu Ning’s imminent departure.

“Who said I’m leaving? I came back to continue my studies?” Chu Ning felt that Xiaomi’s words were baffling.

“Sigh, Chu Ning, don’t try to show off. You’re already being targeted by the school, and now you’re not wearing your school uniform. If you didn’t decide to leave, believe it or not, the teacher wouldn’t let you attend class in the first period.” The surrounding students also shook their heads and sighed.

Other than Ye Ting and her good friends, the rest of the students in the class were reluctant to see Chu Ning leave.

“Alright, I won’t explain anything.” Chu Ning looked up at the class schedule on the blackboard and continued, “The next class is the chemistry teacher’s class. You guys just have to watch.”

Chu Ning felt that it was useless to explain now. The facts would tell them the outcome.

“Sister Chu Ning, I know you can’t bear to leave Jingyuan High, but you don’t belong here. You should take advantage of your last moments to say goodbye to everyone. Also, I have good news. You’re no longer the school’s spokesperson!” Ye Ting said softly as she smiled and walked to Chu Ning’s side.

After being bullied by Chu Ning for so long, it was finally her turn!
