Chapter 143: When Did You Return?

“Find a seat.”

Huo Jinyan glanced at him, then picked up his textbook.

Lin Yi walked straight to the last row.

When she passed by Lin Ci and Lu Nings table, he deliberately stopped for a bit.

However, he did not say anything. He simply smiled, and then went to sit in the last row.

Huo Jinyan never chatted or made small talk during his classes; seeing that Lin Yi had sat down, he did not give his classmates any time to be curious about him, and immediately began his lecture.

Lu Ning listened for a while. It was alright; he did not speak too fast, and she still had time to take notes.

Lin Ci saw that Lu Ning kept shrugging her shoulders as she wrote, so she leaned over and asked in a whisper, “What’s wrong?

Lu Ning shook her head. “It’s nothing, my wound is just itchy.” “That always happens when wounds heal. You can’t scratch it.”

Lin Ci told her.

Lu Ning could not help but laugh. “It’s not like I can reach it either.”

Lin Ci glanced at her back. “You’re right.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the voices in the classroom came to a sudden stop. When she looked up, Huo Jinyan was standing right in front of her desk.

Fortunately, Huo Jinyan only eyed them for a bit before he continued walking forward.

Lin Ci heaved a sigh of relief. Whenever Huo Jinyan approached, that intense pressure of his was really enough to freeze people in place.

After class, Lu Ning promptly stood up and went to the toilet. Lin Ci followed and went with her.

She still vividly recalled the last time she was injured. Now, whenever she saw her going alone, she could not help but worry.

On the way, when she passed by Class 2, Lu Ning turned her head and glanced inside. She did not see Lù Yue’an.

But coincidentally, when she came out of the cubicle she met her, washing her hands at the wash basin.

Lu Ning spotted Lù Yue’an’s back, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. She folded her sleeves up, and walked over.

As the water flowed down the back of her hand and onto her wrist, the bracelet on her wrist shimmered under the running water. Her skin was already fair, and the bracelet looked breath-taking upon her arm.

When LùYue’an subconsciously looked over as she turned off the water, she saw the bracelet, and her hand that was on the faucet froze in place for a moment.

After Lu Ning meticulously washed her hands, she turned off the water. She tore a paper towel to wipe her hands and threw it into the wastebasket.

She turned around and walked away with Lin Ci, who was waiting at the door.

While Lin Ci had been standing outside, she had noticed the bracelet on her wrist.

She could not help but grin at Lu Ning. “You do it on purpose?

From her impressions of her, Lu Ning never wore such accessories.

Lu Ning was very frank. ‘Yes.”

She casually took off the bracelet. Lin Ci reached out, and she placed it in her palm.

Lin Ci looked at the bracelet in her hand and chuckled. “Ning’ning, you’ve changed. You’re so naughty now.”

Lu Ning only flashed a brief smile.

“Not wearing it anymore?

Lu Ning glanced at it, a hand in her pocket. “It’s done its job.”

She was not some pushover; just because she tolerated her bullying, did not mean that she would not retaliate.

In her opinion, Lù Yue’an did not care much about her previous family. Rather, what she cared about was that they did not still place her in the center; or perhaps, she only wanted to compete with Lu Ning and prove to Lu Ning that she had what Lu Ning did not, such as her brother’s care and affection.

However, right now, Lu Ning had the bracelet which Lu Qing gave her, whereas she did not. It would be enough to vex her for a while.

Lu Ning and Lin Ci had just returned to the classroom when they saw a group of people sitting in a circle at the last row.

The two of them sat down, and Lin Ci glanced behind them.

They had no idea what Lin Yi was doing, but it caused the group to squeal and cheer as they accommodated him.

She could not help but mutter, “When did this bugger come back?”
