Chapter 519 - 533 My Honor
"An Ran, you have to give a speech tomorrow. Did you read the script I gave you yesterday? Do you think it needs any revisions?" Lu Yi asked An Ran while eating.So he came to discuss the script with her. An Ran secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She wasn’t afraid of Lu Yi having ulterior motives. She couldn’t control others’ feelings. It’s just that since enrollment, Lu Yi had always been good to her. She feared that he would be the one to get hurt ultimately. If he really let go, they would still be good friends.
"Monitor, I’ve looked at your script. I followed your script and drafted one for myself. After dinner, can you help me see if it needs any changes?" An Ran said.
"Sure." Lu Yi nodded.
"I’m going to get some soup. Does anyone need more?" Xiao Xiao stood up halfway through her meal, holding her bowl as she asked.
An Ran waved her hand, "I have enough."
Lu Yi also indicated that he didn’t need any.
Xiao Xiao took her bowl to get some soup, and Lu Yi paused his chopsticks.
"An Ran, I was presumptuous yesterday, don’t take it to heart."
"Hm?" An Ran looked up to see Lu Yi staring at her. His gentle exterior seemed to hide endless pain. She awkwardly forced a smile, "Monitor, yesterday’s matter is past. Besides, Instructor Mu also said we should not blame those who are unaware."
Although the explanation was flawless, An Ran felt uneasy inside. My dear Monitor, there are so many girls in the class, why did you have to fixate on me?
Seeing An Ran’s discomfort, Lu Yi coughed lightly and smiled, "Will we still be friends in the future?"
"Of course, I’ve always considered you my best friend," An Ran assured him cheerfully.
"Really?" Hearing "best friend," Lu Yi couldn’t help but ask again.
"Yes, it’s my honor to have such a talented and handsome Monitor like you as a friend." An Ran said somewhat sentimentally.
After all, Lu Yi had helped her many times in the past six months, even attempting to finance her tuition under the guise of a club sponsorship when he found out she was working in a bar.
She couldn’t repay him with romantic affection, but she could in other ways. If being just friends made him happy, she was willing to make him happy.
"It’s my honor to be your friend too." Lu Yi smiled.
Not far away, Guo Xinyi watched the two chatting and laughing, her fingernails digging deep into her skin involuntarily.
Her father had just called back, telling her that Sun Beibei’s expulsion was finalized and reminded her that Sun Beibei had crossed the wrong people. He advised her to stay out of it.
The wrong people? What kind of powerful person could An Ran, a rustic girl from a lower place, an adopted orphan, possibly be?
Could she pressure the school into clearing her name and expelling Sun Beibei?
She couldn’t understand. She thought An Ran must have hooked up with someone influential during her time working in the bar. But in Nan’an, how many people could make the Guo family wary?
She knew her father was always cautious in his actions, but not to the extent of fearing such a little girl.
But now, seeing the situation with those two, she understood.
It must be the Lu family. The Lu family must have stepped in to resolve this issue. In Nan’an, the Lu family not only had a significant presence in the business world but also had a much deeper influence than their Guo family, which had risen from scratch.
Despite the Guo family’s wealth, it only spanned a few decades, incomparable to the Lu family’s century-old legacy.
