Chapter 994: Chapter 1018: Don’t Mention It
He Huixi was startled by the harsh tone in Nianyang’s voice, but then said reluctantly,
"Chu Nianyang, are you out of your mind? Shi Nuan is an abandoned girl, is she worth you helping her like this?"
Nianyang sneered, "Don’t keep calling her an abandoned girl. Do you really think you’re so noble, He Huixi? You’re vulgar and completely unrefined. Anyone who didn’t know better might think your parents don’t care about you and never taught you how to behave."
"You!"
He Huixi gritted her teeth with anger, wanting to curse back, but she held back due to Nianyang’s status and her relationship with Chu Zhan.
At just this moment, the car to pick up Nianyang and the others arrived,
"First Medical University students, it’s time to get on board and depart."
He Huixi gave Nianyang a glare and quickly ran over.
Zhong Wenqing smiled at Nianyang and followed her.
Nianyang put her arm around Shi Nuan’s shoulder, "Let’s go, Nuannuan."
Shi Nuan responded with a hum and walked with Nianyang towards the car, almost ready to get on.
Nianyang heard Shi Nuan behind her, quietly whisper, "Thank you."
The car picking them up was three levels deep inside, with a lot of space, and each level was compartmentalized.
He Huixi took the first level, Zhong Wenqing followed into the second level, while Nianyang had to drag Shi Nuan to the third level.
After sitting down, the car departed, and Nianyang looked at Shi Nuan, gently saying, "Nuannuan, you don’t need to thank me. We’re friends."
Shi Nuan blinked her eyes, "Nianyang, you don’t understand."
She didn’t understand that over the years, when Shi Nuan faced ridicule, sympathy, and disdain from outsiders, she had survived alone.
No one had ever stood up for her like Nianyang did.
Having a friend is truly wonderful.
Nianyang saw Shi Nuan in this state, feeling a strange sting in her heart, a bit of a heartache, but seeing Shi Nuan wasn’t in the mood, she did not ask further.
After a while, Shi Nuan regained her prior energy and belatedly asked, "By the way, Nianyang, I haven’t asked you yet, why are you alone? Where’s your man, why didn’t he send you off?"
Uh, now it was Nianyang’s turn to feel down.
She slightly lowered her eyelids, hiding the worry in her bright eyes, and softly said, "He went on a business trip."
Shi Nuan responded with an ’oh,’ without suspecting anything, and the two girls tacitly remained silent.
The car drove for a total of two hours, eventually reaching a suburban elite training school. Coincidentally, as Nianyang and the others got off, the other school participants’ bus also stopped.
At a glance, including Nianyang’s group, there were at least over twenty participants, with the gender ratio seriously skewed.
There were only six girls, while the fourteen boys left a stark ’more wolves than meat’ situation.
Under the arrangements of the person in charge of welcoming them, they arrived at their respective dormitory buildings. The boys’ dormitory was on the eastern side, while the girls’ dormitory was on the southern side.
Since there were only six girls, they were simply all placed in one dormroom. After being led to the dormitory by the dorm supervisor lady, the girls went to choose beds.
Shi Nuan hurriedly chose a bright upper-and-lower bunk bed by the window and called Nianyang over.
"Nianyang, let’s sleep here together. I like the upper bunk, you can take the lower bunk."
Nianyang was a bit touched, she wasn’t a fool. Nobody actually prefers the upper bunk since climbing up and down is troublesome. Shi Nuan was deliberately doing this to take care of her.
