Chapter 65: Lin Jiajia's After Story (1)

Lin Jiajia lifted her head from the school desk, her eyes a bit glazed. She looked towards the front and saw that the teacher's mouth was moving. Her head felt very heavy and dizzy.

Lin Jiajia reflexively looked towards the seat in front of her. The woman she hated most was really no longer there. Could it be that she was dreaming? Or did all the things in the dream actually happen?

Ling Xue had truly disappeared from her life.

The person in the dream was her, yet it also wasn't her. She had watched as everything occured.

The bell that signaled the end of cla.s.s rang. Lin Jiajia stood up from her seat and the three-legged desk immediately fell to the ground. This would originally be a very embarra.s.sing moment, yet for some reason, Lin Jiajia's heart was very calm as she unhurriedly lifted the desk back up.

Everyone around only glanced at her before s.h.i.+fting their eyes away. They didn't pay much attention to her, unlike before. Their att.i.tudes of hate and ridicule had already changed into disinterest.

When An Rong, who used to bully her, met her gaze, she simply turned away with a humph. Lin Jiajia became even more bewildered. Could it be that everything she had seen in the dream had been real?

Right at this moment, two men suddenly carried a desk into the cla.s.sroom. This desk was brand new. They walked to Lin Jiajia and placed the desk in front of her seat.

"What are you guys doing?" asked Lin Jiajia. Her desk had broken a long time ago. It had been messed around with, slashed with a knife, and even had a leg removed.

"This is the school's arrangement. Your desk is broken so of course it must be replaced," replied one of the school staff.

Lin Jiajia's lips twitched. Why hadn't they thought of it earlier if that was the case? However, Lin Jiajia knew her current situation and could only say, "Thanks."

"I was the one that had them replace your desk." Leng Ao had his hands in his pockets as he walked to Lin Jiajia. Then he proceeded to look down on her from above.

When Lin Jiajia saw Leng Ao, she reflexively started to knit her brows. Even she felt a bit puzzled by her reaction. Logically speaking, she should have been very excited and happy to see Leng Ao, why was her heart filled with such dislike? It wasn't possible.

"What do you mean by this?" Lin Jiajia didn't know why, but her hands itched. She really wanted to fight with Leng Ao and use a shoulder throw on him.

Leng Ao frowned. "You're not happy? I prepared a new desk for you."

"Thanks," said Lin Jiajia indifferently as she tilted her head back to look at Leng Ao. He was tall with very handsome looks and bright eyes that seemed like stars.

It was the first time she had ever been so close to Leng Ao, yet she didn't feel excited at all.

"Are you satisfied with this desk?" Leng Ao saw that Lin Jiajia was examining him. For some reason, he suddenly felt a little nervous. As he spoke, he touched the bridge of his nose.

"Oh, thanks," said Lin Jiajia.

Leng Ao lifted his chin and asked, "Last time, I said that you could be my girlfriend. Have you finished considering it?"

Girlfriend? When had that happened? Lin Jiajia scoffed. She didn't remember that at all. So many things have gone off the rails. Ling Xue had disappeared, and now Leng Ao actually wanted her to be his girlfriend.

These were all things that she hadn't even dared to fantasize about in the past. To become Leng Ao's girlfriend? Lin Jiajia hesitated and didn't speak.

The hope in Leng Ao's eyes dimmed a little, but he said, "Since you're not replying, I'm going to take that as you agreed. From now on, you're one of my people."

"I haven't agreed. Leng Ao, please don't decide on your own initiative," said Lin Jiajia coldly. Eh? When had she been able to speak with such indifference and force?

Leng Ao's facial color changed. His expression was a little angry and also a little hurt.

Lin Jiajia walked around him and left the cla.s.sroom. She felt a bit confused. How did the world change so much after she took a nap?

Chapter 66: Lin Jiajia's After Story (2)

The moment she walked out of the cla.s.sroom, she saw a man wearing a white coat leaning against the balcony. He was tall and looked very taciturn with gold-rimmed gla.s.ses that looked elegant and also a little cold.

When Lin Jiajia saw this person, her heart suddenly leapt. Her intuition told her that this man was very dangerous, so she wound around him to head to the restroom.

A hand reached out and grabbed her. She turned back and instinctively called out, "School Doctor."

This was the school's doctor.

The school doctor squinted as he looked at Lin Jiajia with a very deep and probing gaze. He scrutinized her face inch by inch as if searching for something.

"What is it?" asked Lin Jiajia.

The school doctor uncle looked at Lin Jiajia and found that her expression was cold and indifferent. The casual smiles from before, the boot-licking smiles, were no longer there.

He released her arm and asked indifferently, "You're not her?"

"What?" Lin Jiajia was completely bewildered.

The school doctor uncle's eyes turned extremely cold, but immediately afterwards he smiled again. "I mistook you for someone."

After saying that, he left, the ends of his coat lifting from his strides.

Lin Jiajia stared at his leaving figure, then shook her head. She needed some time to calm down.

Then, the following events caused her to become even more speechless.

Her father had heard that Leng Ao wanted her to be his girlfriend and so wanted to bring her back into the Lin family. What the heck was that? They had kicked her out, and now they want her back again?

Lin Jiajia never thought about wanting to return to the Lin family. Although she was currently alone, she felt very free with this self-sufficient life.

When they tried to use the affection card with her and talk about how they had no other choice back then, Lin Jiajia simply gave a knowing smile. When they didn't need her, they used her as a s.h.i.+eld. She still had the newspaper in which they announced that they were severing ties with her.

Lin Jiajia didn't know who exactly it was that had occupied her body, but she was sincerely grateful to that person from the bottom of her heart. She had never imagined that one day her life could be so unfettered and free. She didn't need to listen to her father talk everyday about acting for the sake of the family and basically be pushed to sacrifice everything for this family.

She wasn't their biological child at all. It was just that the Lin family couple didn't have a child even after being married for a long time and there was a superst.i.tious saying that if you first adopt a child, karma will bless you and grant you an actual child.

Lin Jiajia was this adopted child. Since she had now been chased out of that house, she naturally refused to return again.

In addition, since Ace Academy didn't expel her, she continued to go to school. Lin Jiajia smiled. When had her skin become so tough? She was clearly just an powerless orphan now, yet she still attended an aristocratic school.

Ever since she rejected Leng Ao, he had started stubbornly trying to woo her. Sometimes she would get too annoyed and just throw him over her shoulder.

Unexpectedly, Leng Ao seemed very used to this way of interacting. No displeasure showed on his face at all and Lin Jiajia immediately went 囧. Could it be that Leng Ao liked this treatment? When everyone treated him respectfully, he always acted tsundere. She was cold and arrogant towards him and hit him at the slightest pretext, yet he actually seemed to like it?

>囧 is used as an emoticon and usually mean along the lines of embarra.s.sment, sadness, depressed, or frustration. In this case it's probably speechlessness. Like, what the heck??

Wasn't this masochism? Lin Jiajia's expression became very strange. It couldn't be because too many people respected him so he grew to like people hitting him? His illness was seriously quite severe ah.
