Chapter 150: Chapter 150: See Through But Don’t Say It, Understand? Chapter 150: Chapter 150: See Through But Don’t Say It, Understand? Jiang Nian’s face flickered with indecision.
She naturally did not want to give up on her studies.
She had worked so hard before in the hope that she would one day no longer need to depend on anyone and that she could change her own fate through education.
She hoped to live with dignity.
Shen Zhaozhao continued to persuade her, “You haven’t told your aunt yet because you know she would not agree, right? You can’t keep this secret for long. If you don’t go back to school next week, the homeroom teacher will definitely talk to your aunt.”
“Thank you, I’ll consider it carefully.” Jiang Nian ultimately did not relent and say she would return to school.
On the way back, Shen Zhaozhao couldn’t help but say, “Do you think she’ll return to school?”
Zhou Huaiyu shrugged and said, “That’s beyond our control now. We’ve said what we had to say, whether she listens or not is her business.” Their relationship with Jiang Nian was average at best; they hardly ever spoke.
If it hadn’t been for this girl, they probably wouldn’t have even noticed there was such a person in the class.
Whether she attends school or not is none of their concern!
Gu Chengzhou also said, “Whether she goes back or not is her own decision, we’ve done what we could, and now it’s up to her to choose.”
“Actually, it’s not her fault. If it were me, I might also not want to go to school,” Shen Zhaozhao sighed.
Jiang Nian’s social status was awkward, and having been humiliated like that in person, she might find it difficult to face everyone’s gazes as well.
Being born into a certain type of family with certain parents was never something one could choose.
At that moment, Shen Zhaozhao felt incredibly grateful to have a happy family and parents who loved her.
While they might not be as wealthy and powerful as others, at the very least, they loved her wholeheartedly and allowed her to grow up carefree.
It was getting late, and everyone had to head home.
Zhou Huaiyu looked at Shen Zhaozhao and said, “Zhaozhao sister, where do you live? Do you want brother to take you home?”
“No need! I’m going the same way as Yiyi, I’ll just go back with him,” Shen Zhaozhao quickly replied.
Although it revealed that she and Sheng Chuyi knew each other, she still did not dare to let anyone know that they lived together.
“Is that so!” Zhou Huaiyu said with a look of regret, “Then I’ll see you the day after tomorrow!”
Gu Chengzhou also smiled at both of them and said, “See you on the weekend!”
That person had a pair of attractive fox-like eyes, and whenever her gaze met his, Shen Zhaozhao always felt like he knew something.
And she wondered if it was because she felt guilty.
After watching them take taxis away, Shen Zhaozhao then turned to Sheng Chuyi and said, “Yiyi, what should we eat tonight? How about we go out for dinner?”
Sheng Chuyi said, “I thought you would have no appetite tonight.”
Shen Zhaozhao said, “Am I the kind of person who’d mistreat herself because of someone else?” There was no way she would lose her appetite over someone else’s issues.
“What do you want to eat?” Sheng Chuyi asked.
Shen Zhaozhao said, “Barbecue, I think I need something tasty to ease my gloomy mood!”
Sheng Chuyi said, “Are you sure it’s not just because you’re craving it?”
Shen Zhaozhao rolled her eyes at him and said, “Some things are better left unspoken, get it?”
Sheng Chuyi’s lips curled into a slight smile and he said, “Let’s go! It just so happens I know a good barbecue place nearby.”
