AWB Chapter 431
Chapter 431
Si Nian rested at home for a few days. She could eat and drink well, and for the time being, she didn't feel anything unusual, as if her pregnancy was just a dream.Because the children all had classes and she was too bored, she chose to return to school for classes after resting for a few days.
"Sister Si Nian, have you been sick these past few days? Why haven't I seen you at school?"
Seeing her, Liu Nana hurriedly waved.
Si Nian nodded, "I was feeling a little unwell, but I'm fine now."
After speaking, she noticed that Zhang Xue was not around, and asked, "Why is it just you?"
That night, she had seen Zhang Xue with a group of unfamiliar men and women, seemingly going out to drink?
At the time, Zhang Xue pretended not to see her, and Si Nian didn't expose her.
But it felt a bit off.
However, she didn't want to meddle in other people's private affairs, so she hadn't taken it to heart.
"Sigh, I was just about to tell you about this. Recently, Xiaoxue said she found a job and has been skipping classes and taking leaves all day to work. I really don't know what she's thinking."
She knew that Zhang Xue's family was not very well-off.
But it wasn't to the point where they couldn't get by. At this time, her studies should be the most important thing.
However, Zhang Xue might have seen Chen Haoran and the prosperity of the big city, so she cared more about saving face.
As soon as she arrived, she went to get her hair done, bought cosmetics and new clothes. Her family had just sent her living expenses for this month, and she had already spent it all.
It wasn't that Liu Nana hadn't tried to persuade her, but Zhang Xue wouldn't listen.
So she couldn't say much more.
Anyway, since starting college, she could feel that Zhang Xue had begun to change.
She couldn't quite put her finger on it, but she seemed somewhat vain.
Si Nian was puzzled: "What about Chen Haoran? How are the two of them doing?"
Chen Haoran's family was so rich; if he really had feelings for Zhang Xue, he shouldn't have let her mix with those people.
Liu Nana shook her head: "I'm not sure either. Actually, in the beginning, Chen Haoran seemed quite enthusiastic about her, but he hasn't come to hang out with us for a while now. Rich people, you know, they have so many friends around them, how could they have time for us? Besides, we just met by chance, there's no real emotional foundation."
Si Nian nodded, thinking what she said made sense. With a family background like Chen Haoran's, they emphasized matching social status. Even if there was something between Zhang Xue and him, it would be hard for them to have a future. Besides, there was nothing concrete between them yet. Maybe it was just a bit of novelty at first, probably not even liking.
Zhang Xue was a bit awkward and petty, but it wasn't intolerable.
It was just that since Chen Haoran lost his initial interest, naturally he wouldn't continue pursuing her.
But while he didn't take it seriously, Zhang Xue very likely took it to heart.
Sigh, when a naive girl comes to the city, it's easiest for her to encounter this kind of playboy, giving her illusions and making her think she has a chance.
Before, when Chen Haoran was just a bit enthusiastic towards her, she could get so extremely jealous.
No wonder she was acting so crazy now.
Si Nian shook her head.
At noon, she went to the cafeteria to eat.
Seeing that the cafeteria had sweet pastries today, she was stunned for a moment.
They were exactly the same as the ones Zhang Xue had given her as an apology.
Chen Haoran popped up from out of nowhere, "Sister, you finally came back to class. I heard the unsolved case in your hometown was resolved; you weren't scared, were you? You haven't come to class for so many days."
Si Nian glanced at him and said lightly, "Not really, just some personal issues. I'm fine now."
"Junior, is she your sister? She's really pretty."
Si Nian then noticed there was a woman beside him.
She was very beautiful.
No wonder Liu Nana said he stopped hanging out with them; it turned out he had a new flame.
Tsk, it seemed he had inherited a lot of his father's romantic and flirtatious nature.
"Not my biological sister, just a relative, but calling her sister sounds nicer."
Chen Haoran smiled and said, "By the way, Sister, where are Zhang Xue and the others? Why aren't they with you?"
The girl next to him was getting food for him, and she asked him, "Brother Hao, they have this dessert today. I remember it's your favorite, should I get more?"
Chen Haoran gave a perfunctory reply.
Si Nian withdrew her gaze and said indifferently, "I don't know, I'm rarely in the dorm."
"True, I haven't really seen them these past few days either, and we had even talked about going out together."
Si Nian gave a cold response, walked to the side, and sat down to eat.
At this moment, Liu Nana arrived. Si Nian had saved a seat for her, and she sighed in relief: "Thank goodness you saved a seat for me, Sister Si Nian, otherwise I might not have had a place to eat today."
She had just packed food for Zhang Xue and taken it back. Zhang Xue came back late at night and was still sleeping when she returned.
Not knowing what exactly she was doing, Liu Nana was quite worried. She got her food and sat next to Si Nian. Seeing Chen Haoran with a girl, she paused, then smiled and greeted, "Chen Haoran, you're here too."
"Yeah, why is it just you? Doesn't Zhang Xue usually hang out with you?" Chen Haoran also seemed to notice something was wrong and asked in confusion.
"She's resting in the dorm and didn't come out to eat. She looked listless, so I didn't wake her."
After Liu Nana finished speaking, she noticed the pastries placed next to him and smiled, "Before, Xiaoxue said you loved these pastries, and I didn't believe it, but I didn't expect it to be true. That day she packed quite a lot and said she was going to give them to you."
"Ah? When?" Chen Haoran was a bit confused.
"Not long ago."
Si Nian paused. She usually made pastries at home herself, and hadn't really noticed that the school had them too. So when Zhang Xue gave them to her at the time, she really thought Zhang Xue made them herself, and even took them back to keep. Although the taste was a bit too sweet and rich, not her preferred flavor, out of respect for the phrase "made with my own hands," she still finished them.
"I don't know, I never received any. You must have remembered wrong."
Chen Haoran shook his head.
Actually, that day he heard about Si Nian being misunderstood, and he had originally cleared things up with Zhang Xue.
Later, Zhang Xue wrote him a note, asking him to meet in the afternoon.
Chen Haoran was quite happy and went over early to find her.
But he saw Zhang Xue holding hands with a man. He didn't know what the other party was saying, maybe something like a confession. Her face was very red, and she neither agreed nor refused.
At that time, Chen Haoran felt it was quite meaningless.
So he just left.
At first, he did have a bit of affection for Zhang Xue. She had her things stolen on the train and bumped right into his arms. She dressed plainly, had big eyes and a small face, and was very cute, looking extremely innocent.
It made his heart itch.
So he had always helped them out later on.
He didn't blame her for the misunderstanding with Sister Si Nian either, after all, it was him who didn't explain clearly, and he was quite happy about it.
Who would have thought she was like this behind his back.
Liu Nana was also puzzled.
But there was no reason for Chen Haoran to lie about this.
Forget it, forget it, she wouldn't care anymore.
Si Nian didn't ask either, and they didn't mention Zhang Xue again.
Instead, Lu Yao came in to eat. As soon as she sat down, she noticed the group sitting nearby.
She paused, walked over, and handed an envelope to Si Nian, "This is the translation fee you earned before. The English teacher saw you weren't here and asked me to give it to you."
Si Nian reached out to take it and thanked her.
Lu Yao didn't speak, walking to the side to sit down and eat.
These four people in the dorm were really quite strange.
Based on Zhang Xue's behavior, Si Nian would not interact with her much anymore.
