“Fortunately, the girl is fine. If something bad happened to her, her family would be heartbroken!” Dai Ya said.
That was true. When a family member was in trouble, they would definitely feel sad.
Leng Xiaoyao guessed that the girl was doomed to be haunted by what happened for a while because she felt that she was surrounded by that black shadow.
Ordinary people would be affected for a period or even longer when encountering such a thing.
Whether one could suppress this fear depended on individual willpower, but Leng Xiaoyao couldn’t control these things.
Leng Xiaoyao first sent Dai Ya back to the hotel, then went home. Although their clothes and pants dried quickly in the summer, they still needed to take a shower and change clothes immediately.
Before Leng Xiaoyao went home, Leng Yuqi and the others already went back. After they met Leng Xiaoyao, they lost all interest in continuing to play, so they went straight home.
In addition to Song Xiaoxiao and Song Xicheng, their parents were also present in the Leng family’s mansion.
It seemed that they weren’t here to visit relatives, but to ask for help from the Leng family.
Although Leng Xiaoyao disliked Song Meiyu, it didn’t mean that she had no manners. Therefore, when she saw Song Zhenyang and his wife, she politely greeted them.
“Hi, Uncle Song, Aunt Song.”
“This… is this Xiaoyao?”
Although Song Zhenyang and his wife were Song Meiyu’s brother and sister-in-law, they didn’t have any bad feelings towards Leng Xiaoyao. Song Meiyu didn’t tell them everything.
Song Zhenyang was stunned when he saw how beautiful Leng Xiaoyao looked.
They knew that Leng Xiaoyao had become pretty, but it was the first time they had seen her looking so beautiful. They didn’t expect her to become so good-looking.
“Yes.” Song Meiyu responded with a slightly cold voice, feeling uncomfortable at seeing Leng Xiaoyao.
“I didn’t expect you to become so beautiful!” Aunt Song said. Although she was jealous in her heart, she also gloated over Song Meiyu’s misfortune.
Even if she was jealous, she wouldn’t see Leng Xiaoyao often. However, Song Meiyu and Leng Yuqi often saw Leng Xiaoyao, so she could imagine how displeased they were.
Although she didn’t know much, she knew that Song Meiyu and Leng Yuqi couldn’t stand Leng Xiaoyao.
Therefore, Aunt Song added. “You are even more beautiful than Yuqi.”
When Aunt Song praised Leng Xiaoyao, Song Meiyu and Leng Yuqi looked unhappy. With this sentence added, they were even unhappier.
Even so, there was no need to say it out loud!
Leng Xiaoyao knew what Aunt Song was thinking, but she didn’t care and went straight upstairs.
Song Xicheng’s gaze followed Leng Xiaoyao’s back until he couldn’t see it anymore. Then he asked, “Aunt Meiyu, why did Leng Xiaoyao suddenly become so beautiful?”
“I don’t know. She suddenly became pretty,” Song Meiyu said indifferently.
“She used to have freckles on her face, she was not disfigured. She should have used some medicine to cure it!” Song Meiyu said. Seeing Song Xicheng’s expression, she knew what he was thinking!
If it was possible, she would agree. However, they were too young. Leng Xiaoyao was eighteen years old, while Song Xicheng was only seventeen years old.
Given Leng Xiaoyao’s family background, even if she was two or three years older, it wasn’t a problem, let alone only one year older.
She just thought that they were still young and it was unlikely for them to get together.
After changing their clothes, Song Xicheng came over and talked to Leng Xiaoyao enthusiastically, “Leng Xiaoyao, how did you do on the National College Entrance Examination? Which university are you planning to attend?”
“The Capital University.” Although Leng Xiaoyao didn’t have a good impression of Song Xicheng, she didn’t need to give him a bad attitude since he was talking to her with a smile.
“Ah! The Capital University!”
Upon hearing that, the Song family was surprised because they didn’t know that Leng Xiaoyao had such good grades. They thought that she was still the same as before.
“Humph! Do you think we don’t know your grades? The Capital University? I’m afraid you won’t even be accepted by the ordinary universities in City Chang! Only Yuqi can get into the Capital University,” Song Xiaoxiao said disdainfully.
Song Zhenyang and his wife, as well as Song Xicheng, also thought the same way, but they didn’t say it directly.
“Are you sure you know my grades? No matter how many points I get, I can still go to the Capital University.” Leng Xiaoyao sneered.
“How is that possible?” Song Xiaoxiao said, thinking that Leng Xiaoyao was joking.
“Why is it impossible? Do you think you know me well? We have only met a few times a year!” Leng Xiaoyao argued. She knew that Leng Yuqi said that to them, but obviously Leng Yuqi didn’t mention it after she had changed.
“I…” Song Xiaoxiao was struck dumb for a second, but still retorted. “I don’t know, but Yuqi knows! Yuqi told me that.”
“I didn’t.” Leng Yuqi immediately denied it. She had told Song Xiaoxiao something about Leng Xiaoyao before, but she didn’t say it after Leng Xiaoyao changed. She didn’t want to take the blame for this. “I told you something about her before, but not afterwards.”
“What does that mean?”
Everyone could tell that something was wrong. Aunt Song asked with curiosity.
“It means that I’m an excellent student now!” Leng Xiaoyao said without being proud, but in their eyes, it was pride.
“How is that possible?”
Song Xiaoxiao was shocked and couldn’t believe it.
“Why is it impossible?” Leng Xiaoyao asked.
Song Xiaoxiao didn’t know what to say.
At this time, Leng Changyuan came in and happened to hear what they had just said. Although he was a little unhappy, he didn’t directly show it. He just proudly said, “My granddaughter is absolutely amazing! She participated in a competition before the National College Entrance Examination and won first place. She has already received admission to the Capital University, so she can go no matter how many points she scores! Even if she takes the exam casually, not many students can do better than her.”
Leng Changyuan kept saying “my granddaughter” as if he only had one granddaughter.
It was obvious that he didn’t care about Leng Yuqi.
It was all because Leng Yuqi’s actions had disappointed him too much, and Leng Xiaoyao’s current achievements made him too proud.
When he mentioned his granddaughter Leng Xiaoyao outside, there were few people who weren’t envious, which made him feel very proud.
“What?”
Upon hearing that, the Song family was shocked.
What? Leng Xiaoyao participated in a competition, won first place, and was admitted to the Capital University with a scholarship?
How was that possible? When did Leng Xiaoyao become so excellent?
After Song Xicheng was shocked, he immediately used his mobile phone to search for the recent Liberal Arts Defense. He was in his third year of high school and knew about the competition, but didn’t pay attention to it, so he didn’t know who won.
When he searched for the results and saw that it was indeed Leng Xiaoyao who won the championship, he had complicated feelings. “It’s true. Leng Xiaoyao won the championship of the Liberal Arts Defense and got admitted to the Capital University with a scholarship…”
After Song Xiaoxiao snatched the phone to confirm the news, she became even more jealous.
