Chapter 27 Nothing to be done
After Xiang Lianyi had put Xia Feifei in her place, she became a lot quieter. It was likely because she knew she couldn't win against Xiang Lianyi.
Li Tiantian couldn't help but whisper to Xiang Lianyi in a low voice during class, "You're so cool, Lianyi! You made Xia Feifei speechless then! That felt so good!"
"The way I treat her depends entirely on the way she treats me. Since she's so entitled, there's no point in being polite."
"Well, you're right, she's just..."
"Those two students over there, listen carefully. No chit-chat allowed in class." The teacher's voice from the podium made Li Tiantian stuck out her tongue. Not daring to chat with Xiang Lianyi anymore, she turned around to listen carefully.
Xiang Lianyi smiled, her eyes looking at the blackboard, but her mind had already drifted far away.
She had spent very little time with Xi Mufeng in her last life, but the faces of these people were always the same. Everywhere she went, people whispered behind her, as if she wasn't good enough for Xi Mufeng, or even as if being with her was an insult to Xi Mufeng.
She didn't understand what she had done wrong, why these people had to treat her this way.
So when she met Xi Mufeng later, she even treated him as a burden, so much so that they...
It's her mind that's not strong enough!
She let Xi Mufeng down!
This time around!
She will not!
The bell of the lunch break pulled back Xiang Lianyi's drifting thoughts.
The time at school passed quickly. At first, people were surprised to see her and Xi Mufeng together, but soon they seemed to have gotten used to it.
Mo Zhuyang was annoyed by this phenomenon but was at her wit's end. She couldn't go back to the way she used to be, and the way Xi Mufeng was treating her now made her feel very insecure about herself.
Everything was driving her crazy!
She suddenly thought of Wu Wenli. She knew very little about Xiang Lianyi. What she saw on the information she gathered was superficial. Maybe Wu Wenli could give her something new there.
However, Wu Wenli hadn't come to school since the end of the dance. Was she scared?
Mo Zhuyang regretted that a bit. She shouldn't have let people tease her, it seemed like they pushed her a little too far!
Wu Wenli was actually ready to go to school already, but Gu Yujiao was insisting on letting her take a few more days off, which delayed the start of classes for her.
If she knew that Mo Zhuyang had been waiting for her, perhaps she would still be happy. Isn't there a saying that an enemy of an enemy is a friend?
Sooner or later, these two women who are jealous of Xiang Lianyi will get together!
At the end of the week, Xi Mufeng took Xiang Lianyi to an old alleyway. At the end of the alley was an unassuming door with the sign that read, "Suhe Bar."
When he pushed the door open and went in, it was a unique sight.
The décor was elegant. Clearly, the owner had good taste in interior designs. Even for Xiang Lianyi, who was a thirty-year-old woman inside, this place was very unique.
"Xiaofeng." Liang Han was already there and had taken a booth to wait for them.
"Xi Mufeng. It's been a long time since you've been here." A handsome older man came over and greeted Xi Mufeng with a smile.
"Brother Quan."
It turned out that this man was the owner of this bar, and Xi Mufeng looked like he was a regular customer. Xiang Lianyi came to a conclusion in her mind.
"Who is this?" Quan Hong looked at Xiang Lianyi curiously and quietly complimented her in his mind.
So beautiful!
Even for a bar owner like him, she was a very beautiful girl.
"Brother Quan, hello, I'm Xiang Lianyi. I'm... a friend of Xi Mufeng's!" Xiang Lianyi said with a smile.
Ximu Feng glanced at her softly. He didn't care much about the word "friend".
"Hello, hello. Have fun with Xiaofeng. Tonight's expenses are all on me." Quan Hong said with a smile. He was always generous to beautiful women, even though Xiang Lianyi was still young.
"Thank you!"
Liang Han finally wait up with the two of them. It had been a long time since he and Xi Mufeng were last here. They were also turning into model students in the past months.
This time, Xi Mufeng had brought Xiang Lianyi along. He really didn't know what else they could do here then. Liang Han had wanted to flirt with the girls.
"Lianyi, what do you want to drink?" Liang Han smiled and asked.
"Juice." Xi Mufeng answered faster than Xiang Lianyi.
"Oh, I can do whatever. You guys go ahead and order, I'm going to go to the bathroom."
the dimly lit restroom was around the corner. Xiang Lianyi heard the suggestive noises in the room when she was using the bathroom and felt very awkward.
Well, this was a bar, after all!
She waited until there was no more sound before she came out of the stall. Bowing her head as she straightened her clothes, she accidentally bumped into someone.
"Oh, sorry."
"It's fine."
The familiar voice made Xiang Lianyi freeze in place. It was Zhao Zifeng's voice!
She looked up sharply, and sure enough, her boyfriend from her previous life was looking with her with a smile.
She felt chills all over her body.
"Hey, are you alright, pretty?"
Xiang Lianyi's expression looked very bad, her face very pale. Zhao Zifeng didn't understand it. She was fine just now, but her expression turned into this as soon as she saw him?
Have they met before?
However, he had no memories of her at all. It wasn't often that he saw someone as beautiful as Xiang Lianyi. If he had, he surely would remember her.
"It's fine." Xiang Lianyi said with a frown. Because of how nervous she was, she almost tripped and fell. Zhao Zifeng caught and steadied her.
Xiang Lianyi shook off his hand very hard.
As a result, the atmosphere between the two turned very awkward.
