Chapter 34 - Self-Destruction (2/2)

Everything will be fine. She had nothing to worry about, for she had overcome the most challenging obstacle.

Her desk mate was none other than Zhang Bin.

“Thank you, Zhang Bin.” Thanks for standing up for me, thought Ye Jian.

In her past life, she didn’t express her grat.i.tude to him. In this life, she must tell him that in person.

Ye Jian raised her head with apparent joy in her black eyes. She said slowly with solemnity, “Thank you very much!”

Zhang Bin giggled. Ye Jian’s innocent and glamorous face that looked like a blooming rose reflected into his eyes. He said merrily, “You have changed quite a bit. You are way better looking than before.”

A sincere and pure compliment. “Thanks.” Ye Jian smiled. Her eyes were dazzling like the flowing spring water under the sun.

Thanks to his help, Ye Ying could no longer maintain her flawless and innocent image. Her reputation would always be stained because of writing a love letter to her teacher as a student.

“Don’t mention it. I just hate to see her bullying you all the time. Hush. Teacher’s here…” the boy sat upright and dared not whisper anymore.

Ye Jian lowered her head and opened her English textbook. Soon, she was immersed in studying.

It was getting late into the night. The lights in the school had been turned off and the campus was silent. Occasionally, some stray cats prowled through the school and uttered some creepy sounds.

Princ.i.p.al Chen was still in his office. He didn’t go to sleep after holding a meeting to handle and report the issue involving Mrs. Ke and her students. From time to time, he looked at the landline phone that had not rung, and then looked at his watch.

While waiting for a phone call, he couldn’t help but think of the episode in the late afternoon today.
