Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
An hour later, the three classes from the three grades started their competition.
Everyone was well-rested, and all of them were filled with fighting spirit.
Guan Chiyue and Chen Xingqian did not wait for Lu Ning to ask them to look after Lu Jingzhi; the two of them came over first.
“Ning’ning, go ahead. We’ll keep an eye on Jingzhi for you.”
Lu Ning nodded. “Thank you.”
“No problem, you’re welcome.”
Lu Ning and the others went to the competition, while Guan Chiyue and Chen Xingqian accompanied Lu Jingzhi to watch. Lu Jingzhi even handed each of them a bag of potato chips.
“Ready!’
As the sound of the referee’s gun rang out, the three teams began together, even shouting their commands in sync.
Lù Yue’an glanced at them, then exchanged glances with Wu Tian and Zhao Lingling.
She looked down at her wrist and asked in confusion, “Where’s my bracelet?”
When the students beside her heard this, they subconsciously distanced themselves from her, all afraid of being suspected by Lù Yue’an; they heard that her bracelet was worth millions. None of them could afford to compensate her.
Li Yue’an rummaged through her pockets twice, then stood up and looked around her, puzzled and flustered.
Shi Qingyue and Lù Chuan looked at her. “What’s wrong, An’an?”
Lù Yue’an slapped her hands in frustration. When she looked up at the two of them, she smiled. “It’s fine. I can’t find my things, so I’ll go back and look for them.”
“Go on, be careful.”
“Okay!”
She circled around at the side of the stands, and everyone watched her walk out.
No one paid much attention to it. Wu Tian and Zhao Lingling watched as Lù Yue’an walked out of the field and looked at each other. Then, they turned their gazes to the people on the field.
Lù Yue’an walked out of the stadium and slowly walked towards the school building.
Initially, he did not plan to come, but Lu Qing was still worried and walked in from the school gate; he happened to see Lù Yue’an walking into the school building.
He did not call out to her. After standing on the spot for a few seconds, he walked towards the stadium.
As he approached, he heard loud and clear voices.
“196! 197! 198!’
Lu Qing went over and moved in from the back. In the end, he stood behind Grade 3 Class 9 and watched.
The students of Class 9 were all competing, and their seats were all empty so nobody was obstructing his view. He immediately spotted Lu Ning in the middle of the team.
There was a smile on her lips, and she looked very energetic.
Lu Qing silently heaved a sigh of relief as she appeared to be fine.
Lu Qing’s gaze was still on Lu Ning.
His gaze was complicated. That day, he had seen Lu Yue’an and Zhao Lingling go out. He had wanted to talk with Lù Yue’an about the competition and ask her to let it go, but when he followed her out, he saw Lù Yuean handing a pink diamond necklace to Zhao Lingling. He had seen that necklace before, so he recognized it at a glance; it was really expensive.
He was curious as to why Lù Yue’an would give such a valuable thing to Zhao Lingling, so he hid himself. When Lù Yue’an left, he followed Zhao Lingling; hiding at the entrance of Class 9, he saw Zhao Lingling stash the necklace into Lu Ning’s bag.
However, he did not hear what Lù Yue’an and Zhao Lingling were saying at that time, so he was still making up excuses to himself to absolve Li Yue’an.
He told himself that it had nothing to do with Lù Yue’an; she had only given the necklace to Zhao Lingling for safekeeping, but Zhao Lingling was jealous of Lu Ning and wanted to frame Lu Ning, so she did this.
However, he could not even fool himself with this excuse; countless images of Lù Yue’an handing the necklace to Zhao Lingling flashed through Lu Qing’s mind..
