But humans, if their penchant for gossip could be easily controlled, that would indeed be strange.
After these students returned to the classroom, they quickly shared the gossip with their desk mates and students sitting in front and behind them.
"Hey, let me tell you a little secret, today at the school gate, Su Qianxun and Qin Siyu..."
Soon, the promise not to talk behind others’ backs was forgotten, and the students spread the morning’s events through their "little loudspeakers."
For a while, Qin Siyu, whether she was using the restroom or just walking down the corridor, spent the entire day under the scrutinizing gazes of other students.
At the same time, comments like "Qin Siyu is definitely not as pretty as Su Qianxun" pierced Qin Siyu’s heart like countless sharp needles, sending her already envious heart into a frenzy.
How come Qin Sisi didn’t succeed in splashing your face with concentrated sulfuric acid and ruining your looks!
It’s just being a little prettier than others, what’s there to be so smug about!
The Qin Family’s private car came to pick up Qin Siyu.
Qin Siyu got into the car under the watchful eyes of everyone and, after closing the door, her expression instantly darkened. "Drive!"
"Yes, Miss," the driver complied and quickly drove off.
Meanwhile, Qianxun and Lin Yuwei were heading to the bus station with their backpacks.
Witnessing this scene, some students couldn’t help but whisper, "I never thought Qin Siyu being picked up and dropped off in a car was a big deal since she is the Vice Mayor’s daughter. But look at Lin Yuwei, isn’t she the Vice Mayor’s daughter too? Yet she still takes the bus to school every day?"
"Heh, being chauffeured fits her image as the school beauty!" a girl who didn’t like Qin Siyu said sarcastically.
Hearing this, many people chuckled.
Nanyang High School is not a public school.
The students who study here either come from the city’s wealthy and prominent families or are students with exceptionally good academic performance.
Actually, they too could have their family members drive them, and since they are second-generation rich kids, it’s normal for them to afford cars. However, Qin Siyu and Lin Yuwei are different since they are second-generation officials.
Despite both being officials’ daughters, they receive different treatment going to and from school.
By observing these small details, one can gauge what kind of people their fathers are.
On the public bus, Lin Yuwei was chattering away about a problem she hadn’t understood that day.
Most of the passengers on the bus were Nanyang High School students, and as soon as they heard Lin Yuwei’s words, ears perked up.
They too hadn’t fully understood the problem that Lin Yuwei was talking about.
Seeing this, Qianxun spoke up a bit louder to explain the key points to Lin Yuwei.
As her voice rang out, the bus became suddenly quiet, and only the sound of passing cars outside could be heard.
Once Qianxun finished explaining, Lin Yuwei excitedly said, "So that’s how it is! I wondered why I couldn’t figure it out!"
After saying that, she looked at Qianxun with starry eyes, "Su Qianxun, you’re amazing."
Qianxun glanced at her, "Well, it’s because I’m smarter than someone."
With that remark, Lin Yuwei pouted immediately, "That’s just a roundabout way of calling me dumb!"
At this moment, another student couldn’t help but interject, "Su Qianxun, I can’t seem to grasp this English grammar point, could I ask you about it?"
Hearing this, everyone else held their breath and looked at Qianxun.
Would Su Qianxun agree?
Qianxun looked at the boy wearing thick glasses and nodded, "Sure."
With that, the boy visibly relaxed and then posed his question.
Qianxun answered succinctly, eliciting an enlightened nod from the boy, who then promptly took out his English workbook and started working on a few exercises right there on the bus.
