Pampered by the School Bully-Chapter 1218: Side Story: Why Isn’t the Little Trickster Flirting with Him?
After deciding to get braces, Ye Qingcao told her mom about it the next day.
Xu Hui had heard her mention it for three years. Each time, she wanted to get them, but then backed out because she couldn’t bear the thought of losing four teeth — they were like inseparable companions.
This time, Ye Qingcao seemed determined.
On the way to the dental hospital, Xu Hui asked her repeatedly, and each time, Ye Qingcao nodded firmly.
Xu Hui, seeing her daughter so resolute, found it unusual.
Even at the hospital, lying on the treatment bed, as the dentist administered anesthesia, Ye Qingcao never once expressed regret. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
Her mom, Xu Hui, stood silently by her side, watching...
Watching as her daughter’s four healthy teeth were extracted, Xu Hui felt a strange discomfort in her heart.
It just seemed like such a waste...
But when they consulted the doctor, he explained that those four teeth were orthodontic teeth, non-functional, and if it was for aesthetic purposes, it was okay to remove them.
Trust the doctor.
Xu Hui consoled herself, then turned away, not wanting to watch this scene.
When Ye Qingcao saw her two healthy teeth being pulled out and placed in a tray, she started crying.
Tears streamed down...
The pain was unbearable.
Since all four teeth couldn’t be extracted at once, Ye Qingcao had to return the following week to remove the remaining two.
After the first extraction, with her bloody right cheek in her hand, Ye Qingcao’s tears fell like peas, one after another...
She cried at the hospital, cried at home, and even hid in her room to cry.
Xu Hui was at a loss and let her cry.
Later, Ye Xi came to comfort her for a while.
While being comforted, Ye Qingcao confided in Ye Xi the reason for her steadfast decision to get braces and all about her interactions and exchanges with Yan Siyuan over the past three years.
Only then did Ye Xi realize that the supposed "online friend" who had been helping her with videos for the past three years was not a real online friend at all, but a boy from the class next door!
Ye Xi felt like he was personally sending his sister on a journey, feeling conflicted.
But he adored his sister and couldn’t do anything about it.
Ye Qingcao was a lively girl.
The shadow of the tooth extraction lasted only a day.
She gradually recovered, and by the next week, facing the extraction of the other two teeth, she was filled with anticipation.
The mold for the braces was taken on the first day, and the doctor sent it out to have the braces made.
After both sides of Ye Qingcao’s teeth were extracted and she had recovered for a week, she successfully got her braces.
And then... she looked even worse!
At home.
Frowning, Ye Qingcao looked in the mirror; with the newly fitted braces, she looked ugly from every angle!
Due to the thickness of the braces, her mouth protruded more than before, and it seemed she couldn’t even close her lips...
Ye Qingcao couldn’t stand this appearance of herself.
As a result, she didn’t go to the community downstairs for a long time and didn’t play with Yan Siyuan’s younger siblings.
Eventually, as she became accustomed to her unsightly appearance, she courageously stepped out of the house and resumed playing with Yan Siyuan’s younger siblings.
When Yan Siyuan’s younger siblings saw her with a mouthful of metal, they also said she looked ugly.
However, children don’t choose playmates based on appearance, so they continued to play well with Ye Qingcao.
Still, Ye Qingcao... was quite discouraged.
She prayed that in high school, she wouldn’t be placed in the same class as Yan Siyuan. It just wasn’t acceptable!
Thankfully...
After school started, she indeed wasn’t in the same class as Yan Siyuan.
Once again, she was in the class next to Yan Siyuan’s!
You could call it fate or not.
Oddly, her classroom was inside Yan Siyuan’s classroom, which meant that she could no longer see his handsome figure passing by the classroom window.
Though she couldn’t see Yan Siyuan’s handsome figure anymore, he could still often see her passing by their classroom window.
The greatest joy in Yan Siyuan’s high school life was teasing Ye Qingcao.
He deliberately befriended girls in his class and stirred up some rumors, knowing full well that the little trickster would definitely find out.
Naturally, Ye Qingcao from the next class did find out.
She was absolutely furious!
She resented having a mouthful of metal, resented opting for ugliness beyond belief! She resented not being able to flirt openly with Yan Siyuan during his wild phase!
Ye Qingcao could only use a fake male account online to remind Yan Siyuan to watch his image and not get too carried away.
When Yan Siyuan saw her serious reminders, he couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Then, he became even more wanton in interacting with girls.
But...
After this half-semester of interaction, Yan Siyuan was also troubled as he received quite a few confessions and love letters from girls in the class.
With a wicked sense of humor, Yan Siyuan would send the love letters to Ye Qingcao’s fake male account, pretending to share his daily life with a close friend, but really just wanting to see her angry reaction.
