Liang Bowen looked at his watch and said, âHe should be arriving soon.â
Chen Yuan scoffed and said, âSo what if heâs coming, Iâm not interested in his lessons at all. Heâs here because of Qiao Chen, anyway. Itâs not the 80s anymore. I can find lessons by famous lecturers online easily. Anyway, does he actually know our curriculum? He has been teaching researchers all this time and he might not even be as good at teaching as Lao Shen.â
The students in Class A thought about it and fell silent.
They had a bad relationship with Class B, and hence Qiao Chen. Qiao Chen was even good friends with Zhao Jingwei that hurt Sister Nian and Shen Qingqing. They didnât have good impressions about the professor that Qiao Chen had managed to invite.
As they chatted, the PA system sounded.
They were asked to gather at the lecture hall.
Liang Bowen smiled and put away his earphones. He then looked up and said nonchalantly, âSpeaking of the devil, heâs here already.â
âI really donât want to go,â Shen Qingqing said as she pouted.
She didnât want to see Qiao Chenâs prideful look. The students from Class B were getting boastful in school for the past few days.
It was as though the professor from Qing University was their waiter.
Even though they didnât want to go, they started to walk towards the lecture hall.
Qiao Nian saw how unmotivated they were and said, âMaybe itâs not as bad as you think...â
Liang Bowen patted her on the shoulder as he thought that Qiao Nian was trying to console them. He smiled and said, âSister Nian, donât try to make us feel better. Weâre more worried about you than anything else.â
Only he and Chen Yuan knew what the relationship between Qiao Chen and Qiao Nian was like.
Sister Nian must have felt horrible from what Qiao Chen and Fu Ge did.
Even so, she was trying to console them.
Liang Bowen was touched.
âDonât worry, Iâll support you.â
âUh...â
Qiao Nian frowned. She didnât want to say much as they dragged her out. She saw the âunderstandingâ look on their faces and wanted to explain everything.
However, they were blocked.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âQiao Chen, what are you doing!â Shen Qingqing saw the people blocking them and immediately stood in front of Qiao Nian to protect her.
Qiao Chen wasnât alone. Other students from Class B were with her. One of them was a girl that was following her just now.
âQiao Nian, did you take Chen Chenâs bracelet? It went missing, and you were the only one that spoke to her just now. Return it to her and apologize. We will pretend that nothing happened,â one of the girls, closer to Qiao Chen, said pridefully.
The students from Class A saw that the students from Class B were here and came back. It was as though they were preparing to fight.
Qiao Nian frowned and looked at Qiao Chen.
She didnât notice that Qiao Chen was wearing a bracelet.
Shen Qingqing pushed the girl away furiously and screamed. âHow dare you create such a big ruckus in front of my class? You should ask Qiao Chen where she put her bracelet. Why are you asking Nian Nian, anyway? Nian Nian isnât her mum. Sheâs not responsible for Qiao Chen. Are you guys serious?â
The girl that was pushed away glared at her angrily and said, âDo you know the brand of the bracelet Chen Chen lost?â
Qiao Nian didnât know. She then asked nonchalantly, âWhat brand is it?â
