Chapter 78: Trying to Please Me?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“No, if you don’t agree, I won’t get up.” Xu Yue gritted her teeth and was determined to get to the bottom of this.
Xu Wanwan was not soft-hearted and said coldly, “You brought this on yourself. No one can blame you.”
“Xu Wanwan, I’m different from you. You’re lucky. Even without the support of the Xu family, you can still live a good life.”
Xu Yue’s face was full of unwillingness. “You’re on the Li family’s list now. You’re clearly living such a good life. Why won’t you let me go?”
Xu Wanwan was so angry that she laughed. “Then you snatched away the identity that should have belonged to me and got the love of the entire family. Aren’t you living a happy life?”
“But you’ve already gotten so much. Why do you still want to harm me?”
“Yes, you did experience a very unbearable thing yesterday. But if I had experienced those things, you would have been very happy now, right?”
Xu Yue was almost speechless. She looked stubborn. “But the Xu family doesn’t want me anymore. They chased me out of the house. I have nowhere to go now.”
“I stay in the Xu family with my heart in my mouth every day, trying to please them. I thought I could really win their hearts. But I only did one wrong thing, and they don’t want me anymore. What right do they have?”
The more she spoke, the more agitated she became. She dragged her legs and moved toward Xu Wanwan’s direction.
“Can you help me? Can you go and plead for the Xu family to bring me home?”
Xu Wanwan turned her body away without batting an eyelid. “I’m sorry, I have nothing to do with them anymore.”
When she left the Xu family, she was already extremely disappointed. From the bottom of her heart, she had already drawn a line between her and the Xu family.
Now that there were matters related to the Xu family, she did not want to care about them at all.
Xu Yue’s plan had failed, so how could she let it go? “Xu Wanwan, why aren’t you willing to let me go? Anyway, Mom and Dad don’t like you, so why don’t you just let me go?”
“Look at me. I’m their daughter. I’ve given them enough face outside, so I can be filial to you in the future. What’s wrong with that?”
Xu Wanwan turned on her phone and looked at the time. It was almost time for class. She frowned slightly. “I told you, I have nothing to do with the Xu family. It’s useless for you to look for me.”
“Then help me beg Li Jingran to delete those videos, okay?” Xu Yue said while crying. “Do you want to see the rest of my life ruined?”
“Li Jingran didn’t do those things. If you want to find him, go to Zhao Zixuan.”
Xu Wanwan had asked the housekeeper about the situation yesterday and knew that Zhao Zixuan was the one who did it.
Xu Yue was stunned at first, then her face was full of disbelief. “This is impossible! Zhao Zixuan likes me so much, how could he do such a thing?”
“Believe it or not, I’ve said what I should have said,” Xu Wanwan said and was about to leave.
Xu Yue saw that she was not going to listen to her, so she stood up and blocked her way. “Then aren’t you afraid that your real identity will be exposed in school?”
“If your classmates and teachers find out that you’re an ungrateful person who hates the poor and loves the rich, do you think you can still hold your head high in school in the future?”
Xu Wanwan’s eyes also turned cold. “There’s no need to threaten me. I won’t compromise.”
“You!” Xu Yue was exasperated. “Just you wait! I’ll make you regret it!”
Xu Wanwan wore a cold smile on her face and left without looking back.
Xu Yue turned around and stared at her back with a hint of teasing hatred in her eyes.
Damn it!
She must make Xu Wanwan pay the price!

After experiencing this incident in the morning, Xu Wanwan was inevitably late again.
Coincidentally, it was still Professor Chen’s class this time. She stood outside the classroom and sighed softly. She braced herself and knocked on the door.
Professor Chen was just about to talk about the key points of knowledge when he was interrupted. He said unhappily, “How many times have I told you? My class is not for latecomers!”
Xu Wanwan looked embarrassed. “I’m sorry, Professor. Today—”
Before she could finish explaining, she recognized Professor Chen. “It’s Xu Wanwan. It’s fine, it’s fine. Come in quickly.”
As Professor Chen spoke, he opened a thermos flask and took a sip of water, becoming more amiable.
The entire classroom felt incredulous.
Professor Chen was known to be strict. Usually, anyone who dared to be late for his class would inevitably be lectured.
But this Xu Wanwan was already late twice. Not only did the professor not criticize her, but he was also even more lenient.
How could there be such a reason?
Li Xuyi could not stand it any longer and sneered, “The top scholar is indeed impressive. You can be late to class if you want to.”
“If you’re so impressive, why did you come to school? Why don’t you just stay at home and let the Professor come and teach you?”
Xu Wanwan walked past him and stopped in her tracks, but she did not say anything.
Professor Chen glared at Li Xuyi as a warning before continuing with the class.
Xu Wanwan returned to her seat. As soon as she sat down, Lin Jianan leaned over and asked, “Wanwan, why are you late today?”
“I was delayed on the way,” Xu Wanwan said calmly as she took out her textbook from her bag.
“I see. I was worried for a long time just now. I was afraid that Professor Chen would get angry at you.”
“But the professor likes the way you look, so don’t take Li Xuyi’s words to heart.”
Xu Wanwan smiled. “He won’t. I’m not angry with him.”
After all, he was Li Jingran’s younger brother. Even if he sometimes went a little overboard, it was okay for her to endure for a while.
From another perspective, he was still a son of Fate. If she were to treat him a little better, she would be able to get his fortune. Why not?
Lin Jianan didn’t know the truth and sighed. “Wanwan, your personality is too good.”
“If only I could be as gentle as you.”
Xu Wanwan smiled awkwardly and casually found a topic to brush this matter aside.
During the lunch break, Li Xuyi did not go out for lunch. He leaned on the table and played games with his friends.
Xu Wanwan hesitated for a while. She took out the packaged biscuits from her bag and walked over in small steps.
She placed the biscuits on his table and said softly, “I made these myself. Have a taste.”
Li Xuyi’s fingers moved quickly on the screen. He glanced at the small box at the corner of the table, his lips curving into a playful smile. “Why, are you trying to please me?”
Xu Wanwan pursed her lips and said plainly, “I saw that you don’t often eat, so I brought some food for you.”
Li Xuyi did not appreciate her kindness and continued to act casual. “Xu Wanwan, do you like me that much?”
—
“What are you talking about? She was kind enough to make cookies for you. If you don’t want them, then give them to me. Don’t say things like that.” Chen San could not stand it anymore and retorted.
Li Xuyi glared at him. “What has it got to do with you?”
“Wanwan is my friend. If you bully her, then it becomes my business,” Chen San said sternly.
Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Xu Wanwan quickly said, “It’s okay. If you don’t want to eat them, you can put them aside.”
After she said that, she smiled at Chen San and left..
