Drama Queen Reborn as a Top Student!-Chapter 920 - 435: Lingering Regret (2)

Xie Feng smiled at Shen You’an, "The remaining spot goes to Shen You’an. Congratulations."

The whole class had no surprises and applauded to congratulate him.

Shen You’an showed a confident smile, calmly accepting all the applause.

Gu Bichen lowered his head silently.

He was not selected.

Jiang Yumo was also not selected, but she didn’t force it, as she indeed was not as good as Shen You’an.

"The semi-finals are set for late October this year. I hope you two will continue to work hard and make it to the finals."

After saying this, Xie Feng coughed lightly, his tone becoming serious, "After a summer break, I see everyone has gained weight. I wonder if your studies have fallen behind. For the upcoming school test, I hope everyone puts forth their best effort and handles it seriously."

Everyone visibly became tense.

Xie Feng then distributed the test papers, and the test commenced.

After the math test, there was an English test, and in the afternoon, it was Chinese and physics.

After a day of testing, it would continue the next day.

Shen You’an walked out of the school gate and immediately saw a red sports car parked at the entrance, its bright color was quite eye-catching.

Yu Ruohuan opened the car door and stepped out, taking off her sunglasses, she smiled at Shen You’an.

Shen You’an stopped in his tracks.

Yu Ruohuan was skinny and bonny; the red dress she wore was loose on her, and although her face was covered with make-up, it couldn’t hide her haggard and sickly state.

But her domineering and arrogant aura was just as before.

Liu Runxi, walking beside Shen You’an, frowned instinctively upon seeing Yu Ruohuan.

Yu Ruohuan gave Shen You’an a provocative smile, slightly raising her chin, with an expression full of pride and disdain.

Shen You’an curled his lips, tossed her a cold smile, and left.

That was when Gu Bichen walked out of the school, and Yu Ruohuan deliberately shouted exaggeratedly "Bichen..."

After she said that, she rushed to Gu Bichen’s side like a merry little bird, intimately latching onto his arm.

Gu Bichen’s body stiffened for a moment, he quietly withdrew his gaze from Shen You’an, lightly patting Yu Ruohuan’s hand "Why did you come to the school? Didn’t you say you would wait for me at the hospital?"

"I was feeling stifled. I couldn’t wait to see you, so I came. Aren’t you happy to see me?"

The other students coming out of the school saw Yu Ruohuan and Gu Bichen being so intimate. Surprised, they thought of the rumors circulating throughout the school today and found it unsurprising.

However, they still found it very astonishing, because the two of them seemed so mismatched, and it was hard to understand how they were in a relationship.

Gu Bichen was not accustomed to being watched by passers-by, and he hated the scrutinizing gazes directed at them. He pulled Yu Ruohuan into the car, quickly leaving the school.

Yu Ruohuan clung to Gu Bichen’s arm, resting her head on his shoulder, "My mom agreed to let me be discharged from the hospital. She arranged for me to take a leave of absence from school, and I’ll be recuperating at home during this time. Will you come to see me often?"

Gu Bichen’s tone was emotionless: "Okay."

Yu Ruohuan frowned and looked up, her gaze a bit displeased: "Are you just placating me?"

Gu Bichen raised his hand to rub his brow: "I had exams all day today, I’m really tired."

Yu Ruohuan pursed her lips: "Then forget it, I’ll take you home to rest first." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Gu Bichen closed his eyes to rest.

In fact, just looking at Yu Ruohuan’s face made him feel sick, fearing he couldn’t keep up the facade.

Liu Runxi accompanied Shen You’an to the subway entrance, the Liu family’s driver was driving behind at a distance.

On the way, both remained silent, each lost in their own thoughts.

The news of Gu Bichen being with Yu Ruohuan was quite a shock to Liu Runxi; hearing rumors was nothing compared to seeing it with his own eyes.

He had known Gu Bichen since childhood, considering himself somewhat knowledgeable about him, but Gu Bichen being with Yu Ruohuan, truly puzzled him.

He couldn’t help but wonder if Yu Ruohuan was threatening him and he was forced into it?

But Gu Bichen wasn’t a fool; he was the Gu family’s heir, how could Yu Ruohuan possibly threaten him?

Could it be that she had some leverage over him, forcing him to submit?

Liu Runxi wasn’t being conspiratorial; it’s just that what Gu Bichen did lacked any logic, and intuition told him this was the only possibility.

As for Gu Bichen liking Yu Ruohuan, that was absolutely impossible.

Liu Runxi instinctively glanced at Shen You’an walking beside him, coincidentally Shen You’an was looking at him too.

The two exchanged glances, understanding each other’s thoughts in silence.

"Does Bichen... have some unspeakable troubles?"

Liu Runxi couldn’t bear to see his good friend fall into the abyss.

"Gu Bichen isn’t a fool; he’s already made the most beneficial choice for himself."
