Chapter 146: School Anniversary Celebration
Is it Ding Ran again?
Fang Yu frowned slightly and asked, “Help? What happened?”
“There are people trying to break into my house. I don’t know how many there are or what they want… Can you come to my house right now?” Ding Ran said in an extremely anxious tone.
“You can still make a phone call, which means the situation isn’t that urgent. Just call the police,” Fang Yu replied indifferently.
“Call the police? If they are Zhou Cheng’s people, calling the police won’t help… Fang Yu, can you please come? I’m really scared…” Ding Ran seemed on the verge of tears as she spoke.
“I’m busy right now and really can’t come. I suggest you call the police,” Fang Yu said before hanging up the phone.
In that call, Ding Ran’s tone was obviously feigned.
Fang Yu didn’t care about her motives; he simply had little patience for her.
This woman always tried to impose her difficulties on others, which Fang Yu found very unappealing.
…
Ding Ran held her phone, biting her red lip, her expression grim.
She hadn’t expected Fang Yu to hang up so decisively.
She had intended to use a cry for help to lure Fang Yu to her house, and then use some means to take photos as evidence of her being with Fang Yu to send to the Zhou family.
This way, Zhou Cheng would think that Fang Yu and she were in a romantic relationship, which might lead him to trouble Fang Yu.
Ding Ran had seen Fang Yu’s skills firsthand.
If Zhou Cheng sought trouble with Fang Yu, it would be like courting death.
In this way, Ding Ran could use Fang Yu’s strength to get rid of the annoying Zhou Cheng.
Today was just the first step of this plan.
But unexpectedly, it had failed so completely.
Where did it go wrong?
Was it that her disguise wasn’t convincing enough, and Fang Yu saw through her?
Not necessarily.
Recently, Fang Yu’s attitude towards her had clearly become much colder.
Was it that her allure wasn’t strong enough?
Ding Ran had always been confident in her looks; she knew she was called a goddess among the students at Jianghai High School. Zhou Cheng was merely attracted to her beauty.
But Fang Yu… seemed genuinely uninterested in her.
“…With so many beautiful girls around him, it’s normal for him not to be interested in me.”
She thought of Tang Xiaorou, who sat next to Fang Yu, and Qin Yimo, whom she had seen at the art exhibition that day; both were top-tier beauties.
Ding Ran knew she had no advantage compared to these two.
She had to find a way to attract Fang Yu’s attention!
Currently, she could only rely on Fang Yu’s strength to shake off Zhou Cheng.
This was an urgent matter. Her family had already decided that she would be engaged to Zhou Cheng in early May.
Ding Ran hated Zhou Cheng so much that she would rather die than marry him!
Moreover, after witnessing Fang Yu’s capabilities and talents, she felt that being with Fang Yu was something she could accept.
“What should I do?”
Ding Ran stood up and paced around her room.
In her room, there was a full-length mirror.
Ding Ran stood in front of the mirror, looking at herself.
At that moment, she was wearing a thin nightgown, her hair disheveled, and her red lips alluring.
This was the outfit she had specially prepared for Fang Yu.
“It seems I need to be more proactive… I refuse to believe that there are still men in this world who won’t have feelings, especially since Fang Yu is so young…” Ding Ran squinted slightly, murmuring to herself.
…
The next morning, Fang Yu arrived at school as usual.
After finishing the breakfast that Tang Xiaorou had brought him, he began to focus on the book in his hands.
Just as he was engrossed, Tang Xiaorou poked him in the arm.
“What’s wrong?” Fang Yu turned his head, frowning.
“This question… can you solve it?” Tang Xiaorou pointed to an exercise question and asked softly.
Fang Yu glanced at it and said, “I can solve it, but I don’t want to teach you.”
“You!” Tang Xiaorou gritted her teeth in anger.
But she quickly forced a smile and said in a sweet tone, “Fang Yu, please teach me, I’ve been stuck on this question all night…”
“Stop.” Fang Yu felt uncomfortable with Tang Xiaorou’s coy demeanor and said, “I can teach you, but you have to promise me that after I teach you this question, you won’t talk to me for three days.”
“…” Tang Xiaorou’s expression changed slightly, and she fell silent.
“Not accepting means no deal,” Fang Yu said.
“Who said I wouldn’t accept! Of course, I accept! Who wants to talk to you? I could go a month without talking to you!” Tang Xiaorou said in exasperation.
“Then that’s best.” Fang Yu replied indifferently.
Five minutes later, Fang Yu explained the question to Tang Xiaorou and then continued with his work.
At noon after school, Tang Xiaorou suddenly remembered something and said, “Fang Yu, you…”
Fang Yu glanced at her indifferently, and Tang Xiaorou’s expression changed, immediately shutting her mouth.
Fang Yu stood up and left the classroom, heading to the cafeteria.
Tang Xiaorou watched him leave, feeling extremely frustrated.
She wanted to ask Fang Yu if he was going to the school anniversary gala that night, but she couldn’t initiate a conversation with him now, so she had to give up.
…
“Boss, tonight is Jianghai High School’s 30th anniversary gala! Look, the venue outside is all set up. Are you coming to see it tonight?” Li Bingyan said excitedly during lunch.
“What’s so interesting about it? It’s just like the welcome gala every year. Boring,” Liu Fatty said from the side.
“There is a difference! This is the 30th anniversary, and the school is taking it very seriously. I heard that members of the board of trustees will attend the gala… But the most important thing is, there will be beautiful girls tonight!” Li Bingyan said, his eyes shining.
“What beautiful girls?” Liu Fatty asked.
“Dude! Do you even need to ask? The two big school flowers from the second year, Yu Yueyue and Xia Tinghe, will both perform tonight! I heard Yu Yueyue is dancing, and Xia Tinghe will perform solo on the guzheng… Besides the two big school flowers, there will also be the class flowers from each class. In short, we will definitely have a feast for our eyes tonight!” Li Bingyan said, nearly drooling.
Fang Yu kept his head down, eating without expressing any opinion.
“By the way, Boss, the other two big school flowers are performing… Why doesn’t Tang Xiaorou have a program? I heard her dad is a major shareholder on the board of trustees…” Li Bingyan looked at Fang Yu and asked.
“Maybe she’s focused on her studies and isn’t interested in these things,” Fang Yu replied.
“Tang Xiaorou is really a good girl. Even with such a wealthy family, she still studies so hard. Boss, you’re really lucky,” Li Bingyan teased.
Fang Yu ignored Li Bingyan and continued eating.
…
The anniversary gala started at seven o’clock in the evening.
At six-thirty, Fang Yu arrived at the school’s auditorium.
At this time, there were already quite a few people in the auditorium, mostly students, with a few parents and staff.
Li Bingyan and Liu Fatty followed Fang Yu, looking around.
“Wow, how did these girls change their outfits in just two hours?” Li Bingyan exclaimed.
Indeed, many girls present had changed into dresses or other beautiful outfits.
Most of the boys, however, were still in their school uniforms.
Fang Yu wanted to find a place to sit down.
“Boss, Yu Yueyue is coming to find you!” At that moment, Li Bingyan said.
Fang Yu turned his head and saw Yu Yueyue, still in her school uniform, walking quickly towards him.
“Brother Fang Yu!” Yu Yueyue exclaimed happily upon seeing him.
“Aren’t you performing later? Why are you still in your school uniform?” Fang Yu asked.
“Not yet! The backstage is currently occupied by the first three groups of performers; I’m in the next batch,” Yu Yueyue explained.
“Oh,” Fang Yu nodded.
“My performance is in the fifth group, and I should be on stage around seven-forty. You mustn’t miss it, Brother Fang Yu!” Yu Yueyue reminded him.
“I’m here to watch your performance; how could I possibly miss it?” Fang Yu said.
“Hehe, I knew Brother Fang Yu wouldn’t miss it! I was just joking,” Yu Yueyue said, clasping her hands behind her back and smiling brightly.
Li Bingyan pulled Liu Fatty away from Fang Yu.
He didn’t want to watch anymore; his heart had taken a thousand points of damage.
At that moment, not far away stood a man and a woman.
The woman was watching Fang Yu and Yu Yueyue out of the corner of her eye, her gaze venomous.
This woman was Jiang Yue.
Seeing Yu Yueyue and Fang Yu chatting so happily, she felt a surge of resentment in her heart.
It was because of Yu Yueyue that she had been slapped by Fang Yu a few times back then.
