Chapter 9: I don't want to use my brain, do I want to keep it for inheritance?
Su Jinyi slept well that night and did not have any nightmares.
After a quick wash in the morning, she went downstairs and saw Lu Shaoang had prepared breakfast and was waiting for her. Lu Shaoang had just finished heating the milk and was stunned when he looked up after hearing the noise.
Su Jinyi was wearing school uniform today. The blue and white short-sleeved shirt made her skin look even whiter. Her long and straight legs were wrapped in black sweatpants. Her high ponytail swayed gently behind her, full of youthful vitality.
When Su Jin saw Lu Shaoang in a daze, she asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Lu Shaoang came back to his senses and smiled: "It's okay, good morning, have some breakfast and I'll take you to school."
Su Jinyi didn't hesitate and sat opposite him. I've seen Lu Shaoang every day these days. He's a soldier, so he should be very busy. Why does he look so idle?
She ate and asked, "Are you free?"
Lu Shaoang obviously didn't expect her to ask this, so he said: "Not really, I'm on vacation recently and have more free time."
Su Jin nodded slightly.
After eating, Lu Shaoang sent her to the intersection near the school. However, there were more people today than yesterday. Lu Shaoang parked the car, got out and walked to the passenger seat to help Su Jinyi open the door.
When Su Jin got out of the car, she saw many pairs of eyes looking at her and many people whispering. Su Jin thought that Lu Shaoang's G-Class was too conspicuous and frowned slightly.
Lu Shaoang looked at her: "What's wrong?"
“Your car is too eye-catching”
Lu Shaoang laughed: "Okay, I'll change one next time."
Su Jinyi ignored him and turned to walk towards the school gate, but more and more eyes were cast towards her on the way, and the whispers were getting louder and louder.
She originally thought she was a transfer student and that was why she attracted everyone's attention, but the more she walked, the more she felt something was wrong.
The look he gave her was not filled with pure curiosity about the transfer student like yesterday, but rather contempt, disdain, hatred, and even... anger?
How these people looked at her had nothing to do with her. Su Jinyi walked slowly towards the door of Class 8.
When they were almost at the entrance of Class 8, Shen Kuo's roar came: "F**k you, who has nothing better to do than spread rumors all day long? Be careful that your tongue will be gone. I warn you, if I hear you again, you'll be kicked out! Don't even think about staying in South City!!!"
As soon as Su Jin walked into Class 8, the class suddenly fell silent and everyone looked at her with complicated eyes.
Su Jinyi sat down as if nothing had happened. Shen Kuo couldn't help but say: "That...Su Jinyi"
Su Jin turned to look at him, but Shen Kuo didn't know how to start.
What are the rumors out there? They say that her private life is not decent, that she only has a boyfriend to pay off loan sharks, that she is sick, and even more ridiculous is... that he is supporting her???
Shen Kuo believed in Su Jinyi, but he felt uncomfortable seeing her pretending as if nothing had happened. After all, she was a girl, and she had just transferred here and was being slandered. He was afraid that Su Jinyi would be upset.
When Su Jin saw Shen Kuo's embarrassed face, she said, "If you have something to say, just say it."
Shen Kuo said quickly: "We believe you, don't listen to their nonsense! I will help you teach them a lesson, don't worry!"
Su Jinyi was puzzled: "What nonsense are they talking about?"
Shen Kuo was stunned: "You don't know???"
Su Jinyi: "What should I know?"
Before Shen Kuo could explain to her, Shu Mengyu, who had come up empty-handed yesterday, came with Su Yunning and a dozen people from Class 1, looking aggressively as if they were ready for a group fight.
As soon as Shu Mengyu entered the room, she pointed at Su Jinyi's nose and started to curse: "Su Jinyi, I'm telling you, you must move out of Ningning's house today. You can get sick from playing with the flowers yourself, but don't infect Ningning! Ningning's family took you in out of kindness because you are the daughter of the nanny, and you really treat it as your own home! Ningning is kind-hearted, she is embarrassed to drive you away, but I am embarrassed!"
Su Jinyi finally realized what those looks at her meant today. It turned out that Su Yunning was just looking for trouble. Fine, school is so boring anyway, if she likes to play, just accompany her.
Su Jinyi raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Su Yunning, and said lightly: "Su Yunning, your family is taking me in? How come I haven't been home for more than ten years, and it has become your home?"
"And am I your nanny's daughter? Which nanny? I don't even know who my mother is? Why does your nanny's daughter have to take your surname Su? Su Yunning."
Su Yunning's face turned pale immediately. She felt a little scared when she thought of Su Jinyi's words "don't provoke her" and didn't dare to look her in the eye.
Shu Mengyu couldn't bear to see Su Yunning being bullied. She was so focused on defending Su Yunning that she didn't listen to Su Jinyi's words. She immediately flew into a rage: "Su Jinyi, what else do you want to do? You played your tricks yourself, and you don't want people to say anything?"
Su Jin looked at Shu Mengyu, who was as clueless as a clown, with cold eyes.
"You don't want to use your brain, would you keep it for the World Heritage application?"
Shu Mengyu's fingers were trembling with anger: "You, you..."
Su Jinyi spoke again calmly: "Before you speak, look at your best friend and see who is behind this!"
Su Yunning looked up at her suddenly, with a look of disbelief
Su Jinyi laughed sarcastically: "What? Are you feeling guilty? Don't think I will just let it go after you did something bad. I told you not to mess with me. Since you like to play, I will play with you slowly. Su Yunning, I will bring you surprises."
Shu Mengyu was furious: "Su Jinyi, you dare to bully Ningning!..."
Su Jinyi interrupted her directly
"If Notre Dame de Paris burns down, will you lose your home? Why are you so nosy?"
Shu Mengyu didn't understand what Su Jinyi meant, but Shen Kuo did. Shu Mengyu said that she was her aunt's daughter, but how could her aunt's daughter have the surname Su? And Su Yunning was indeed good-looking, but she was the type of beautiful girl from a small family. He had met Su Ji's parents, and Su Yunning didn't look like Meng Mu at all. On the contrary... it was Su Jinyi who looked like her.
Shen Kuo's thoughts suddenly became clear, and he understood what was going on. He was in a mess, with many bad friends, and he knew something about Su Yunning. She looked like a lady from a wealthy family, but in fact, she was not much better and liked to hook up with a rich husband.
The more Shen Kuo looked at Su Yunning, the more annoyed he became, and she even brought people to slander his goddess.
Shen Kuo shouted at Shu Mengyu: "This is Class 8's territory. You guys from Class 1 are here to cause trouble, right? Get out of here and shut your mouths. If I hear you say anything bad about Su Jinyi again, I won't let you go!"
The group of people left in embarrassment, and those who were watching the fun also dispersed after Shen Kuo spoke.
Shen Kuo pushed Ma Tianyu to the back row and sat next to Su Jinyi. He spoke carefully, "Su Jinyi, don't be angry. They are a bunch of sick people who have nothing to do all day. I will make them shut up."
Su Jin looked at him and said, "Why should I be angry? They can say whatever they want. It's not like I'm losing a piece of flesh."
Shen Kuo looked at her seriously, and was relieved to find that Su Jinyi was fine. "If you really think so, don't worry about them."
After saying that, he added: "Since you are so unhappy today, why don't we go racing together tonight? Let's turn our grief and anger into motivation and have a good time. Can I treat you?"
Su Jin glanced at him and said, "Is this your real purpose?"
Shen Kuo scratched his head embarrassedly: "Just give me a favor."
Su Jinyi: "Let's talk about it later"
Shen Kuo immediately said: "Then I will take it as your promise. I will wait for you at the Geek Club after school today. You must come."
Su Jinyi agreed.
Shen Kuo and his brothers left an hour early, saying that they were reserving the venue.
After school, Su Jinyi scanned a shared bicycle and went to Geek. Unexpectedly, she met Su Yunning and Shu Mengyu there just after parking the bike.
