Drama Queen Reborn as a Top Student!

Chapter 1014 - 504: So That’s How It Is! (4)

She picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"The Yu family’s newborn’s full-month banquet is in a few days. Have you received the invitation?"

Yan Xue hadn’t expected the other party to suddenly change the subject. "I did. The Yu family is making quite a spectacle of this banquet. There should be a lot of people going."

Recently there’d been rumors that after running around for half a year, Yu Fusheng had finally smoothed over the trouble, and the Yu family would be fine.

Otherwise those fence-sitters who always put self-preservation first would never go to the Yu family just to join in the fun, afraid of getting dragged into it.

Shen You’an smiled slightly. "Good. Then let’s sit back and enjoy the show."

——

Shen You’an and Liu Runxi walked out of the school gate and saw Yu Ruohuan sitting in the car.

Yu Ruohuan’s resentful, venomous gaze shot toward Shen You’an, no longer with any disguise, naked hatred plain as day.

Liu Runxi instinctively stepped in front of Shen You’an.

Shen You’an patted his shoulder. "It’s fine."

She walked over to the car window at an unhurried pace and said with a bright smile, "Congratulations, you finally have a little brother."

Shen You’an’s smiling face and words turned into a sharp sword, stabbing right into Yu Ruohuan’s soft spot.

What Yu Ruohuan hated most was this face right in front of her, and now there was another one—the bastard that Mei Qingdai had given birth to.

That bastard was born with the halo of the Yu family heir and would take away everything that should have belonged to her.

She wished she could strangle that bastard in her dreams.

Just as hateful as the face in front of her—both deserved to die!

"Shen You’an, you won’t be smug for long. Sooner or later I’ll skin you alive."

Shen You’an raised her brows, studying the face in front of her.

"Judging from your features, the center of your forehead has collapsed, and your glabella is dark. Tsk tsk, a great disaster is imminent, your life won’t be long. You’d better worry about yourself."

Shen You’an’s gaze was filled with pity, as if she were looking at some poor thing with one foot already in the grave.

Yu Ruohuan was so furious she jumped, roaring in rage, "Shen You’an, you’re looking for death!"

Shen You’an jumped away from her like dodging the plague. "So scary. You get angry just because I told the truth. Honestly, Yu Ruohuan, have you not looked in a mirror? Look at the state you’re in now. You sucked away my luck and got hit by the backlash. How many days do you think you’ve got left? I’m only talking to you out of pity."

Yu Ruohuan was so enraged her heart seized; she suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, her face turning ghostly pale.

Gu Bichen walked over with a dark expression. "She’s already at the end of her rope. Why must you kick her when she’s down?"

Shen You’an gave him a cold, mocking glance. "A cheap woman keeps pushing her luck, and I’m supposed to stick my face out so she can slap it? You’re really good at being generous with other people’s dignity."

Gu Bichen frowned and looked at Shen You’an. "You’ve changed."

That quiet, gentle Shen You’an would forever remain only in his memories.

Shen You’an smiled and shook her head. "Gu Bichen, you haven’t changed, have you?"

Gu Bichen fell silent.

Shen You’an glanced at Yu Ruohuan, whose face was twisted in pain inside the car. "I really want to know what handle she’s got on you that makes you obey her every word, to the point you’d even sell your body."

Shen You’an’s words were vicious, and Gu Bichen’s face turned ugly with embarrassment.

He turned and got into the car, very much like a cowardly escape with his tail between his legs.

Watching the car drive off, Shen You’an said to Liu Runxi, who was walking up, "Do you think Gu Bichen’s change has anything to do with his background?"

Liu Runxi shook his head. "I don’t know."

"Forget it, we’ll talk when the test results come out."

Shen You’an had too much on her mind lately; she had no time for the mystery surrounding Rong Xianning and Gu Bichen’s parentage for the moment.

Shen You’an’s popularity had recently skyrocketed. She was at least one of the hottest actresses of the moment. Taking the subway was out of the question now, especially during the evening rush after school. Public transport simply wouldn’t work; getting home had become a problem.

So Liu Runxi considerately let her hitch a ride. Shen You’an didn’t freeload for nothing; every noon, Liu Runxi’s lunch was on her.

Liu Runxi bought her breakfast; she bought Liu Runxi lunch. This really was...

At the gate of the complex, she waved goodbye to Liu Runxi and turned to go inside. Just then someone called out to her.

"Miss Shen."

Liu Runxi saw the person walking toward Shen You’an and his pupils narrowed slightly. He signaled the driver to slow down.

Shen You’an turned her head, saw who it was, and smiled.

An acquaintance, after all.

It was Wei Lai’s first time meeting this Miss Shen. He hadn’t expected her looks and bearing to be so outstanding; she even carried a trace of an old acquaintance’s air.

Shen You’an, however, still had to pretend not to know him. "And you are?"

Wei Lai smiled. "Miss Shen, let’s find a quiet place and talk slowly."

Shen You’an raised her brows. She really wanted to see what kind of game Wei Zhuhua was playing this time.
