60 Birthday

These few times, they hit a wall with Shi Man. Fang Han and Song Zhi were a little embarrassed. Recently, the two of them rarely even spoke in private.

Although Fang Han’s family was rich, she was still far inferior to Song Zhi, who could build a relationship with Yi Zheng. It was not easy for her to become Song Zhi’s best friend in name. She could not fall out with Song Zhi because of Shi Man at this time.

Now, she urgently needed a chance to deal with Shi Man so that she could claim credit from Song Zhi and reconcile their relationship.

“Students, let me tell you a piece of good news.” Holding the class register, Geng Hui walked up to the podium with a smile on his face.

The students below continued to fiddle with their phones without any interest. Only a few people who knew the inside story looked up eagerly at the podium.

Geng Hui gently flipped open the name list and placed it on the lecture table. He smiled excitedly and said, “Today is Fang Han’s birthday! Let’s all wish her a happy birthday!”

Ever since Geng Hui became the form teacher of Class F, he would take the initiative to tell his class every time it was a student’s birthday. He would work hard to unite the class and create a warm and big family atmosphere.

However, very few of the students below would buy it. This was unless it was the birthday of a student who was already very popular in the class, in which case the students below would excitedly wish their classmate a happy birthday.

In the past, Fang Han was recognized as a beauty in the class and had a good relationship with Song Zhi from Class S, so her birthday was a lively affair. Although she had repeatedly embarrassed herself in front of Shi Man this year, the students in the class were still very willing to celebrate her birthday due to her generosity.

As expected, when Fang Han heard Geng Hui say that today was her birthday, she immediately raised her little face and straightened her back proudly. “This year, I’ll still invite the entire class to play together. Mr. Geng is coming too. You didn’t come last year.”

Geng Hui smiled and shook his head. “I won’t go with you. If I go, you will definitely feel uncomfortable. Have fun yourselves, but you must be careful!”

The students below were all looking forward to it. Last year, Fang Han had invited them to the second-largest bar in G City, Venos. She had let many students who had never seen the world have a good time. They did not know where she would choose this year.

Fang Han knew that Geng Hui would not go at all, so she deliberately said that to be polite. She retracted her gaze and gently looked at Shi Man in front of her. Then, she took out her phone and sent a message in the group chat. “Students, does anyone want Shi Man to attend my birthday banquet?”

The lively group was originally discussing where to go to play tonight. When they saw her post, they instantly quietened down. After a while, someone replied weakly, “Does Sister Han want to invite her? We’ll listen to your arrangements. After all, it’s your birthday.”

The boys in the group took the opportunity to jeer, “It’s better not to. What can we do with her around? But Su Tang has to come!”

Su Tang was listening to the class seriously when her phone suddenly vibrated. She frowned and took out her phone to take a look. Only then did she realize that someone in the group chat mentioned her. When she saw the last message, she resisted and raised her head to look innocently in the direction of the person who spoke. Then, she lowered her head and typed again, “I won’t go. I still have something on tonight.”

“What can happen to you? Are you showing disrespect to my Sister Han?” The boy had been coveting Su Tang for a long time, but he had never had the chance to ask her out. This was the perfect opportunity.

He did not believe that Su Tang would take the risk of offending Fang Han and refuse to attend her birthday party.

As expected, when he said this in the group, the tips of Su Tang’s ears turned completely red. The gaze behind her was too aggressive. She could feel the person’s threat without turning around. She could only grit her teeth and reply obediently, “Alright then.”

After receiving her answer, that person mercifully stopped pestering her and continued to discuss how to play tonight with others.

Su Tang pursed her lips and secretly looked at Shi Man, who was also looking down at her phone. She asked softly, “Manman, the group is talking about Fang Han’s birthday tonight…”

“No.” Shi Man refused without thinking. She raised her hand and placed the homework she had just completed on her desk. “If the teacher comes to collect the homework later, help me turn it in.”

“Okay.” Su Tang put away her workbook and hesitated for a moment before asking, “Do you want to be added to the group chat? Usually, if there’s anything, we’ll discuss it in the group.”

“Whatever.” Shi Man was comparing the map. She did not listen to a word Su Tang said and only answered instinctively.

Her response was analyzed by Su Tang, who thought about it repeatedly. In the end, she confirmed that Shi Man had no intention of explicitly rejecting her, so she carefully invited her to join the class group. Then, she shut her mouth and did not dare to disturb Shi Man with something she clearly did not care about.

Shi Man confirmed the location of the black market in G City for the entire morning. She was going to treat Yi Zheng at night. She still needed something that she had to get her hands on personally. Even Sean and the others could not tell her easily.
