Chapter 20: Old Flame
Kong Yiyue knew almost nothing about Hou Guang Lue. In her previous life, she had only heard that he had good grades and had never really known him. If she knew more, it would probably be that he also been admitted to Li'an University during the college entrance examination, and he was in the same school as Fu Jinting when he returned from studying abroad as an exchange student.
Kong Yiyue looked at Hou Guang Lue with clear eyes and didn't intend to pay attention to his strange questions. She didn't have the time to deal with her own affairs while also paying attention to the passersby who had been affected by her changes in this life.
Seeing the annoyance in Kong Yiyue's eyes, Hou Guang Lue turned to leave, but then quickly blocked her, “Kong Yiyue, you say I'm impolite, but your etiquette isn't much better, is it!”
Kong Yiyue smiled, “Well, here's some friendly advice, don't block me.”
Hou Guang Lue didn't care and smiled, asking, “What if I block you?”
Kong Yiyue stopped smiling and asked calmly, “What do you want?”
Hou Guang Lue didn't really plan to do anything, “I'll definitely beat you on the next exam!”
Was that a challenge? Hou Guang Lue, can you be anymore boring!
Kong Yiyue glanced at him with contempt and replied indifferently, “Okay, then you work hard!” Then she asked, “If there's nothing else, can you move aside? I'm in a hurry.”
Seeing Kong Yiyue's reaction, Hou Guang Lue felt that it was boring. Sigh, Fu Jinting couldn't be teased, but how could he have finally met a worthy opponent, yet the other side didn't seem to have any interest in him! No fun!
Hou Guang Lue thought for a while, feeling deflated. Why were there fewer and fewer interesting things at this school?
During the lunch break, Fu Jinting had just entered the classroom when he heard the boys not far behind him discussing, “Did Kong Yiyue really get back together with Hou Guang Lue?”
“There are photos, can they still be fake? Lu Yu, don't tell me you're still thinking about Kong Yiyue? Haha!”
The boy called Lu Yu spat fiercely, “Bah! I wouldn't think about a fickle girl like her! She must have been dumped by Fu Jinting, so she turned her attention to that kid Hou Guang Lue!”
“She likes Fu Jinting, not you. It's understandable. Now, she likes Hou Guang Lue but still doesn't like you, haha, Lu Yu, just admit it!”
“Admit what?” Lu Yu protested.
“Admit that you look really amazing! Stupid!” The boys joked with each other without restraint.
Fu Jinting stood at the front door of the classroom. His already gloomy mood became even darker. He clenched his fists and walked out of the classroom again.
The person Kong Yiyue likes is not him, but money! Although the Fu family is the wealthiest in Qinglin City, the world is never short of rich people!
Kong Yiyue could pursue a boy for money, and in the future, she might abandon her old love for money. Just like now, he was angry and didn't want to see her, and she consciously stopped bothering him.
Fu Jinting didn't know how to vent the depression in his heart. He was unhappy when she pestered him; but seeing her turn around and be ambiguous with another new love, Fu Jinting felt more than just resentment in his heart, it was simply...
Fu Jinting took a deep breath, silently chanting that hateful name in his heart: “Kong Yiyue!” He didn't know if that emphasis was anger or hate.
Fu Jinting was in a bad mood because he suddenly realized that in this short period of time, he had already become Kong Yiyue's old flame!
Old flame? Old flame! Humph!
Until the end of the high school sophomore final exams, Kong Yiyue did not appear in front of Fu Jinting as she said.
Qinglin High School wasn't big. A few times, they happened to meet on the school road or in the corridor. She would consciously pretend to be strangers, lowering her head and passing him by, or turning around and taking another route.
Kong Yiyue didn't want to guess what Fu Jinting thought for the time being. Anyway, there was plenty of time, so let him be angry if he wanted to!
Although Kong Yiyue regretted that she revealed his inner thoughts regardless of the consequences in the restaurant, making him unusually angry. But after a few quiet days, Kong Yiyue felt that it was good.
According to Fu Jinting's character, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heaven if he were to admit that he cared about her. If he was unwilling to say it, then it would be good for her to help him say it, anyway, it would be good to mess up his heart.
After Kong Yiyue figured it out, she only felt relaxed and happy. Fu Jinting, let him be for now.
Although she didn't talk to Fu Jinting, she had contacted Fu Qingrui a few times. This kid ate and drank for free every time. As soon as Kong Yiyue appeared at the same table as him, most of her living expenses would be used up.
“Fu Qingrui, isn't your family rich? Don't you feel guilty for exploiting poor people like me?”
Kong Yiyue has kindly reminded him more than once, but Fu Qingrui will only say triumphantly after being full, “So you are so poor! So pitiful!” The tone is high, and there is no trace of sympathy.
After a few contacts, Kong Yiyue knew his nature. If she was doing badly, he would be even happier. So in the end, she wisely chose to remain silent.
On the weekend before the final exam week, Kong Yiyue had just finished practicing yoga and saw Fu Qingrui when she went out.
After a few contacts, Kong Yiyue wasn't polite with him. She buttoned up her coat, saying, “Are you here to freeload again?”
Fu Qingrui replied shamelessly, “Yes! Kong Yiyue, look, your IQ has gone up with me!”
“...” Kong Yiyue didn't want to complain about him, “Are you so shameless, do your family know?”
“Whether they know or not, how would I know!” Fu Qingrui pushed her from behind, “Go, hurry up!”
Kong Yiyue was unprepared, her body lost balance and leaned forward. Fortunately, she stabilized her body in time to avoid falling to the ground in embarrassment, and turned back to glare at Fu Qingrui, “What are you doing!”
Fu Qingrui had a “nothing to do with me, you can't stand still” expression, “Take you to see my brother, you don't need to be too grateful to me!”
Kong Yiyue sorted out her scarf, her expression indifferent, “I'm not going!”
Fu Qingrui thought he was hallucinating for a moment, did Kong Yiyue just refuse?
“Don't you want to get close to my brother?” Why had you changed your mind?
“Liking is one thing, going is another.” Kong Yiyue explained.
Fu Qingrui didn't understand, “Why does it sound like it's the same thing to me!”
“You're still young, you don't understand!”
“Damn! Kong Yiyue, don't say I'm young! I'm already in the third year of junior high school!”
Kong Yiyue knew that Fu Qingrui would explode, and didn't comfort him, but asked, “You want to take me to see your brother, your brother doesn't know, right?”
“What if he doesn't know?” Fu Qingrui suddenly had the idea that girls are troublesome, and then stared at Kong Yiyue again. Um, she is indeed a trouble!
“It's nothing, just not going.”
Fu Qingrui seemed to have confirmed his guess, “Kong Yiyue, are you giving up like this? My brother is not so easy to chase, how long have you been chasing him! You give up after only a few days, how boring!”
Kong Yiyue shook her head. “No, it's not that. I'm just...” The words reached her throat, but she swallowed them back down.
Seeing her hesitate to speak, Fu Qingrui gossiped and pressed, “You're just what?”
Kong Yiyue smiled slowly, remaining silent.
-- Hmm, I'm just playing hard to get.
