Chapter 26: She's in the Same Class as Him
Fu Jinting had never thought Kong Yiyue was stupid. Someone who could freely control their emotions, with a clear and rational mind, made him grit his teeth!
The senior year final exams ended, and after a long summer vacation, the senior year school season began.
To everyone's surprise, the number of people in the so-called key class didn't change much, except for the addition of Kong Yiyue, who had made rapid progress in the grade exam and ranked second.
Kong Yiyue from Senior Year 2 Class 5 successfully broke through many difficulties and entered the key class?
The teacher of Class 5 in Senior Year 2 was proud to have taught such a student, while the classmates in the same class felt it was wonderful. Kong Yiyue hadn't come to class for several months, but she was able to temporarily embrace the Buddha's feet and pass the grade second place in the final exam? It was either good luck, or she had been hiding her abilities before?
As for Kong Yiyue herself, she naturally didn't have as much surprise or astonishment. Second place was indeed within her expected range.
On the morning of the first day of school, the moment Kong Yiyue walked into the classroom, everyone's eyes were on her. In an unfamiliar environment, with unfamiliar faces, she seemed unaware and found a seat in the back.
Because it was the first day, the students in the morning reading class were only concerned with catching up. Kong Yiyue looked at the front, everyone seemed to be familiar with each other, only she, an outsider, seemed a little out of place.
The students in the class were all among the top students in the grade. After taking a few glances, Kong Yiyue ultimately felt something.
She was unwilling to have even a trace of contact with Lin Anyi again. Although after the Kong Jian incident, she also knew that Fu Jinting had a lot of prejudice against her, she didn't intend to change her plan.
Getting into the key class was both to get rid of Lin Anyi and to get close to Fu Jinting. But after thinking it over and over again, she decided to change her strategy for dealing with Fu Jinting.
Not long after Kong Yiyue sat down, Hou Guang Lue came over. The seat next to Kong Yiyue was empty. Hou Guang Lue sat down next to her in a carefree manner and said with a smile, “Kong Yiyue, you stole my ranking again.”
Hou Guang Lue was the type of guy who grew on you. At first glance, he seemed ordinary, but over time, upon closer inspection, you would realize that his features were actually not bad, his skin was good, and the smile on his face had a bit of a mischievous vibe. Plus, he was always eloquent, so it was hard to really dislike him.
It was just subconsciously that Kong Yiyue didn't like to be close to him, because his ability to turn the tables was not to be underestimated, just like at this moment, Kong Yiyue really couldn't agree with his statement, and could only ask: “Have you heard of a saying?”
Hou Guang Lue didn't know what she meant, and Kong Yiyue kindly explained: “The reason you have everything taken away from you by others is only because you don't have the ability to protect it.”
Just like her previous life, she lost everything, only because she didn't have enough ability to protect the people or things she thought were important.
Seeing that she was so seriously popularizing philosophy for him, Hou Guang Lue found it funny: “Hey, Kong Yiyue, you don't have to be so serious, right? I just want to ask you for an explanation! Don't worry, I will definitely win against you in the next exam!”
Although Kong Yiyue didn't want to hit him, she also hoped that he would recognize the facts: “You can't win against me.”
Hou Guang Lue raised his glasses, “Why?”
“In this life, I won't let myself lose so miserably again.” Well, never.
Hou Guang Lue didn't understand why, and before he could answer, he felt that everyone in the classroom had quieted down, and their eyes fell on the three young and youthful figures at the front door of the classroom.
The person in the lead was Fu Jinting.
Kong Yiyue knew it was him the first second his figure appeared in her vision. He was tall and handsome, and although he was only eighteen years old, the calm aura around him faintly leaked out.
She looked up at him deeply and suddenly recalled him in her previous life, successful in his career, rich in wealth, and admired and envied by everyone. He was separated from her by the distance of the ends of the earth, but now, she had successfully walked behind him. Even if they were too far apart, as long as she persisted, Kong Yiyue always firmly believed that she could take him for herself.
Fu Jinting said that as long as he didn't acknowledge her, she wouldn't be able to achieve everything she wanted!
Kong Yiyue recalled these words, and only coldness flashed in her heart. Fu Jinting, how could you have the final say in this life?
Fu Jinting knew that Kong Yiyue was in the same class as him when he heard Zhong Ziyang mention it on the way just now. Having scored second in the entire grade, Fu Jinting felt that he should look at her with new eyes. Was she hiding her abilities too deeply, or had his defenses been lowered?
He raised his head slightly, his eyes swept over Kong Yiyue, who was sitting far in the back, and then his eyes fell on Hou Guang Lue next to her. The two, who were originally unrelated, made Fu Jinting inexplicably think of the rumors from the beginning.
He squinted slightly, with a sharp look in his eyes, and when he looked at Kong Yiyue again, it was just a fleeting contempt.
Xiang Yi was close to him, and he vaguely noticed the change in his aura. Xiang Yi also looked towards Kong Yiyue with his sight, and silently shook his head when he saw Kong Yiyue reading a book seriously.
Since Kong Yiyue appeared, Fu Jinting's emotions had become more and more elusive, and it was more difficult to guess than the weather in summer.
Although Zhong Ziyang didn't have much contact with Kong Yiyue, Zhong Ziyang had always been outgoing. After throwing his schoolbag on his seat, he walked towards Kong Yiyue, “Kong Yiyue, I didn't realize you were so amazing!”
Kong Yiyue always felt that Zhong Ziyang was actually very easy to get along with. He didn't have a deep mind, and everything was revealed on his face. She was happy to talk to such people: “It's okay.”
Zhong Ziyang saw that she was so immodest and said, “You really dare to accept it!” Then he looked at Hou Guang Lue again, “Why are you sitting here?”
Hou Guang Lue rarely interacted with Fu Jinting and the other two. Zhong Ziyang suddenly asked himself this, and Hou Guang Lue only found it interesting. He smiled and glanced at Kong Yiyue, and replied: “Caring about new classmates! Aren't you the same? Zhong Ziyang.”
Hou Guang Lue's smile was a little abnormal, at least in Zhong Ziyang's eyes. He looked at Kong Yiyue suspiciously, and seeing that Kong Yiyue didn't intend to say anything, so he replied: “Hou Guang Lue, I really can't tell that you have such a good heart!”
“That's right! I'm such a good person!”
Zhong Ziyang didn't agree, “Tch! You're blowing it!”
The two went back to their seats after chatting for a few words. Happy to have peace and quiet, Kong Yiyue raised her eyes from the book and stared at Fu Jinting, who was separated from her by two rows of seats.
His black hair just reached the back of his neck, his hair was black and short, and the skin behind his neck was fair. The white short sleeves set off his clear temperament, and Kong Yiyue's eyes stayed on him for a long time.
Fu Jinting had always hated her approaching him because of money. Although his attitude towards her was not very good, Kong Yiyue knew that she was a little different to him.
How can I move him? I'm afraid those past actions can no longer be repeated.
Her eyes were deep, and Fu Jinting had sensed it the moment her gaze fell on him. Until the gaze became more and more scorching, he slowly turned his head. At the moment when their eyes met in the air, Kong Yiyue only felt embarrassed, and quickly retracted her gaze, lowered her head and pretended to read.
Xiang Yi saw Fu Jinting turn his head and look back and asked, “What are you looking at?”
“Nothing.” He lazily retracted his gaze, just pretending that what happened just now had never happened, but the gloom on his face unconsciously softened a lot.
Xiang Yi hesitated and glanced behind him. Kong Yiyue was reading very seriously, there was nothing unusual! How do I feel that something is wrong somewhere!
Strangely, when the two were not in the same class, Kong Yiyue would travel long distances from Class 5 to Class 1 to find him. Now that the two were only separated by two rows of desks, Kong Yiyue really treated Fu Jinting as a stranger.
For the past three weeks since school started, the two hadn't been able to say a word. On the contrary, Hou Guang Lue had to rub against the empty seat next to Kong Yiyue for a while during the lunch break. Even if Kong Yiyue didn't have the leisure to chat with him, Hou Guang Lue could still talk happily.
If things happen more than three times, Kong Yiyue instinctively took a solution - after eating lunch, she went to the library and waited until the bell rang for the afternoon study class before entering the classroom.
The day she spoke to Fu Jinting was Tuesday of the fourth week. That day, she was reading in the library and fell asleep halfway. When she woke up, she didn't know the time, so she hurriedly packed her books and ran to the classroom. Just as she climbed to the second floor, she saw the sparsely populated stairs. The person who heard the sound and stopped to look back was Fu Jinting.
She held the book in both hands, and when she looked up at him, she couldn't react.
Fu Jinting was also surprised. He heard hurried footsteps and casually glanced back while moving to the side of the stairs. He didn't expect it to be her.
Kong Yiyue didn't know how to speak to him, she just lowered her head, tightened the books she was holding, and remained silent.
Fu Jinting didn't express his opinion and just looked down at her from a height.
They stood still for a few minutes. Kong Yiyue couldn't stand such a heavy atmosphere. She walked up step by step until she reached the same step as him. Kong Yiyue continued to lower her head and take a step forward as if nothing had happened, but she was caught off guard by Fu Jinting reaching out and grabbing her wrist. Because of the books she was holding tightly in her arms, Kong Yiyue staggered and was pulled over by him.
Fu Jinting's eyes flashed with a faint gleam, and he asked, “What is your attitude?”
What attitude! Kong Yiyue was dissatisfied, this was simply no attitude, okay? But these words were only put in her heart and slandered, and she didn't dare to really reply to him like this.
Lowering her voice: “Nothing.”
“What nothing?” Fu Jinting pressed.
Kong Yiyue raised her eyes and looked into the depths of his eyes, “Fu Jinting, if you really hate me so much, wouldn't it be more to your liking if I stay away from you?” After a pause, she continued: “Fu Jinting, I thought about what you said to me that day, and I think it makes sense. It seems that I have really been wrong all along.”
Her words were sincere, with a tactful bass, and a faint sadness unconsciously diffused.
Fu Jinting's eyes were stunned, and he slowly let go of her hand that he was holding tightly. Did Kong Yiyue's words mean that she was planning to give up?
Fu Jinting pursed his lips and looked at her displeasedly, “Because you can't get money from me, you can only find someone else, and now that you have a new goal, you plan to kick me away?”
“Fu Jinting!” Kong Yiyue raised her voice, “You are the one who refused to lend me money, you are the one who refused to like me, and now you are still the one who is angry that I kicked you away! Why is all the blame on me! Fu Jinting, you are being unfair to me!”
“Then what about you? Do you think you are fair to me?” A cold sentence made Kong Yiyue calm down immediately.
Yes, where is there any fairness to speak of? In this life, if she hadn't stubbornly wanted to get him, maybe he would only focus on studying with peace of mind, and after graduating from high school, he would only focus on studying abroad without distractions, so why would he need to entangle with her so much?
Kong Yiyue lowered her eyebrows, pursed her lips, and after a long time, slowly said three words: “I am sorry.”
I'm sorry?
“What do you mean?”
“Fu Jinting, I think we both need time to sort out our relationship.”
“We have no relationship!” He answered simply and directly.
Kong Yiyue just smiled, “Okay, I understand.”
