Chapter 182: Chapter 182: Self-Inflicted Affection Chapter 182: Chapter 182: Self-Inflicted Affection “Hmm, you’re right, there’s nothing to be proud of!” Sheng Chuyi’s lips curled into a smile, a bright one plastered on his face.
Shen Zhaozhao’s expression turned even darker!
He would have been more convincing if he hadn’t smiled.
Shen Zhaozhao was so annoyed!
And yet, the other person hadn’t said anything wrong.
For the first time, Shen Zhaozhao started to feel dissatisfied with her height.
After finishing his laugh, Sheng Chuyi’s expression suddenly turned serious, and he said to her, “Shen Zhaozhao, study hard!”
Shen Zhaozhao blushed under his gaze, okay, she was getting ahead of herself!
Even though she knew that talk of him defending her was nonsense, she felt embarrassed for having such thoughts.
She knew he couldn’t possibly like her, so it was redundant for her to ask.
Overnight, rumors about Shen Zhaozhao and Sheng Chuyi at school proliferated.
“Are you Shen Zhaozhao?” She was stopped by a group of people on her way to the cafeteria at noon.
Here she came, trouble walked with her.
When Shen Zhaozhao looked up, she saw that the girl leading the group was quite tall, probably around 1.7 meters, dressed in a black leather jacket and skirt, with not only nail polish but also earrings.
Her style was at odds with the atmosphere at Jiu Middle School.
She didn’t look like a student but rather a street gangster.
However, the few girls around her were all properly dressed in Jiu Middle School uniforms.
Since transferring, Shen Zhaozhao had never seen such a distinct and bold girl in school. To be so assertive and casual at Jiu Middle School meant that she must have either wealth or power backing her.
Anyway, she was someone not to be messed with.
“I’m not!” Shen Zhaozhao denied flatly.
Such a straightforward answer stunned the other party, and even Jiang Nian beside her couldn’t help but look up at her, thinking the other party had indeed made a mistake.
The girl furrowed her brows, turned to her companion, and asked, “What’s going on? Didn’t you say she was the wretched girl clinging to Sheng Chuyi?”
The girl beside her was also taken aback, scrutinizing Shen Zhaozhao’s face several times before saying, “Impossible, I saw it with my own eyes. On the sports day, the person Sheng Chuyi carried on his back was her. And I’ve asked around, that person is called Shen Zhaozhao.”
“I can testify, she is Shen Zhaozhao.” Just then, a voice came from the side.
Ye Wei’an and a few other girls passed by, one of them glaring at Shen Zhaozhao provocatively.
The words just now were likely from her.
The girl, after speaking, received a frown from Ye Wei’an beside her.
With the words spoken, the excited girl pointed at Shen Zhaozhao and said, “Sister Zhen, look, this girl is trying to fool you, she’s Shen Zhaozhao.”
As Shen Zhaozhao hesitated whether to run away, she saw the girl called Sister Zhen coldly glance in Ye Wei’an’s direction and say, “Useless!”
Ye Wei’an’s face involuntarily flushed red.
Shen Zhaozhao was left bewildered, what was going on?
Then she heard Jiang Nian say, “Her name is Ye Zhen, the eldest daughter of the Ye Family. In Jing City, they’re quite a prominent family. But there’s talk that she got lost as a child and was only found by her family a year ago. Rumors say her foster father was an alcoholic vagrant and she grew up in the streets, becoming quite good at fighting, hence most people don’t dare to provoke her. However, her academic performance is quite poor, often ranking last, and she frequently skips school, which the teachers generally overlook. She likes Sheng Chuyi and has sworn to win him over, forbidding others to compete. Oh, right, she’s also Ye Wei’an’s sister.”
