Chen Yuan was completely dumbfounded. His carefree youthful aura weakened entirely, and he stared at her as if he had seen a ghost.
“You also… study?”
He said it as if it was as absurd as a comet hitting the earth!
Qiao Nian asked seriously, “Can’t I study?”
Chen Yuan was speechless for a moment.
According to her age, of course, Qiao Nian could study. However, he knew that her relationship with Cheng Feng Corporation wasn’t simple, and she could do medicine… Her connections were truly frightening…
For example, his dad had been hospitalized for so long. Although he seemed to be living on the 6th floor in an ordinary ward, coincidentally, no other patient stayed in this ward, and he could freely use it as if it was his own!
The single wards were available only to those with money and connections.
Qiao Nian not only let his dad live here, but she had also turned a general ward into a single ward.
The personal connections involved in this matter weren’t easy. She was like a puzzle, and he had only solved a piece of the puzzle.
Now, she was telling him that she went to the same school as him and was even in the same class. Such a feeling… Chen Yuan thought for a long while, not knowing why he felt like she was a lion being locked in the cat’s nest.
…
Not far away, Gu San and Ye Wangchuan asked the nurse and found out that Qiao Nian was on the 6th floor.
When they came up, they immediately saw the outstanding girl standing at the end of the corridor.
Her unique carefree aura.
Even from afar, it was easily recognizable.
But who was the boy beside her?
Gu San quickly glanced at Master Wang, but he didn’t seem angry. The blood in his eyes seemed to grow heavier, and he almost broke the prayer beads on his wrist…
Master Wang, are you jealous?
No, Master Wang would never be jealous over this petty thing!
…
By the corridor.
Chen Yuan thought about it for ten minutes and finally figured it out.
“If you have a way to get me back to school, I’ll listen to you and return to study.”
“You’ve thought about it?”
Qiao Nian was a little lazy and didn’t like to be involved in other people’s affairs, let alone help others raise their children. However, she couldn’t leave Chen Yuan alone.
“If you’re sure, then I’ll get you back to school. You have to study hard, get admitted to a good school, and get rid of thoughts about staying in that chaotic society. Otherwise, I won’t be so lenient on you. If I can’t control you, then I’ll just have to find another method. In my opinion, disobedient children deserve to be beaten a few times for them to be obedient!”
Did she mean that if he returned to the chaotic society, she would find someone to beat him up?
Feeling depressed and amused, Chen Yuan nodded solemnly. “Once I’ve made my promise, I won’t go back on my words.”
For the time being, Qiao Nian decided to believe him. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Ye Wangchuan and Gu San not far away and retracted her gaze. “I have matters to attend to and won’t be going back in. Tell Aunt Chen and Uncle Chen for me.”
She had always been unpredictable and busy, so Chen Yuan was already used to it, so he waved her goodbye. “Go on, I’ll tell my parents.”
“Alright.”
Qiao Nian turned around and left.
Suddenly, a low-spirited voice came from the boy behind him, as if he was releasing a groan that had been held back for too long.
“Qiao Nian, do you think that the only way for poor people to get ahead is by studying?”
“…” What did he mean?
Chen Yuan held back for a long time and finally asked, “My parents are unaware, but I know how amazing you are. I thought I could be as good as you without wasting time on my studies, but it wasn’t as easy as I thought out there! There are social rules in society, and the rich determine the rules of the games. The poor can only struggle…”
