This familiar voice almost made Hao Ren fall from the stand.
He turned his head around and saw Zhao Yanzi standing behind him with a smile on her face. Ling who he met once at the gate of LingZhao Middle School was standing beside her.
“You… Why are you here?” Hao Ren looked at her in surprise.
“I skipped school,” Zhao Yanzi said nonchalantly.
Hao Ren was speechless. He thought about it and scolded her, “Not only did you skip school yourself, but you also told your friend to skip too.”
“The classes today aren’t that important. It’s fine.” Zhao Yanzi still acted like there was nothing wrong with skipping school.
Hao Ren couldn’t do anything about her and didn’t know how to deal with her right now.
“This is…” Xie Yujia looked at Hao Ren in confusion.
“Ah, this is my…,” Hao Ren could only say, “my sister.”
“Your sister is very beautiful,” Xie Yujia praised Zhao Yanzi sincerely.
“You’re very beautiful too, big sister,” Zhao Yanzi answered deliberately.
While the two girls were looking at each other, Zhou Liren, who was sitting at the top of the spectator stand and playing cards, poked Zhao Jiayi and pointed at Hao Ren.
“Damn! It’s that little girl from last time. Ren is in big trouble!” Zhao Jiayi frowned as he recognized Zhao Yanzi as the one who waited for Hao Ren at Green Hill Cafeteria.
“Want to go and check it out?” Zhao Liren dropped the cards and said worriedly.
“Check out what? That little girl is so hard to deal with. You think you could do it?”
“Then what should we do?” Zhou Liren stared at Zhao Jiayi.
Zhao Jiayi glared at him. “Cut the cr*p! Of course, we should continue to play cards! A pair of kings!”
At Hao Ren’s side, Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia gazed at each other for two seconds without saying anything.
Xie Yujia wasn’t stupid; she could sense a bit of jealousy when Zhao Yanzi called her “big sister”. Thus, she stopped talking and waited to see what would happen next.
“I’m already here, and you want me to go back?” Zhao Yanzi glared at Hao Ren and asked.
“So I should allow you to skip class?” Hao Ren asked her.
Zhao Yanzi pouted. “Fine, I’ll go see Lu…”
Hao Ren covered her mouth, “Okay okay okay, you win. You can stay around for a while. But go back before noon.”
Zhao Yanzi pushed away Hao Ren’s arm and dragged Ling to sit beside her.
“Your sister seems like she’s tough to deal with,” Xie Yujia came up to Hao Ren and whispered.
Hao Ren rubbed his temples and couldn’t express his discomfort. Who would have expected that this little girl would skip class and come here?”
“I’m thirsty. Go buy a drink for me. Oh and get a drink for Ling too,” Zhao Yanzi said to Hao Ren after sitting down.
“I’ll give you money. You go buy them yourself!” Hao Ren said petulantly.
“I don’t know your campus well. What if I get lost?” Zhao Yanzi retorted.
“How did you find this place then?”
“Isn’t the big sports field easy to find? I had to ask one by one for the location of your class!” Zhao Yanzi squinted her eyes and said with pride.
“She probably can’t find the corner store. You should buy it for her,” Xie Yujia said.
Thus, Hao Ren stopped arguing with Zhao Yanzi, left the spectator stand, and walked outside of the sports field to buy drinks.
Seeing Hao Ren vanish at the entrance of the sports field, Zhao Yanzi turned her head, looked at Xie Yujia, and said something that surprised Xie Yujia, “Are you his girlfriend?”
“Uh… um…” Xie Yujia looked at her awkwardly as she didn’t expect this kind of question.
She carefully observed this little girl closely and found out that her skin was delicate and smooth. Her flickering eyes made her look especially cute. Moreover, an ordinary middle school uniform didn’t make her look average but rather youthful and lively.
Her body that was gradually developing also made people think that she was beautiful. Anyone would find her extremely pretty and see the potential of her becoming a real beauty when she grows up.
However, the aggressiveness of Zhao Yanzi’s gaze didn’t make Xie Yujia think that she was cute. A “dangerous aura” diffused from her body, making Xie Yujia, the “big sister” who was four to five years older than her, a little nervous.
“I saw you giving him water,” Zhao Yanzi said.
“Oh, about that…” Xie Yujia was relieved, “he’s just like you. He didn’t bring anything to drink, so I gave him a bottle of water. That was it.”
“You’re not his girlfriend?” Zhao Yanzi tilted her head and looked at Xie Yujia as if she was double-checking.
Xie Yujia nodded dully, “Um… um…”
“Thought so! How can a guy like Uncle have a girlfriend?” Zhao Yanzi pouted her mouth and said.
“Uncle…. ” Xie Yujia sweated as she heard this title. Even though Hao Ren wasn’t good-looking, he wasn’t that old either.
“You’re his sister?” Xie Jiayu made use of Hao Ren’s absence and asked.
“Do you want to hear the truth or the lie?” Zhao Yanzi asked.
“Truth, of course…” Even when she added the words “of course”, Xie Jiayu’s tone sounded hesitant. She wanted to hear both the truth and the lie.
“I’ll remind you first that Uncle is quite a useless person. You’ll definitely regret it if he becomes your boyfriend,” Zhao Yanzi said.
“Oh… then what’s the truth?” Xie Yujia was covered in sweat as she heard the unexpected “advice”.
“The truth is,” Zhao Yanzi paused for a bit on purpose, “I’m his fiancée.”
“Ah?” Xie Yujia’s mouth opened wide, and she nearly fell to the spectator stand.
At this time, Hao Ren ran back with four bottles of water.
He sat in between Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia, separating them. Then, he handed two bottles of water to Zhao Yanzi. “This is for you and your classmate.”
Then, he handed a bottle to Xie Yujia. “This is for your water earlier.”
Ling took the water from Zhao Yanzi’s hand, came close to Zhao Yanzi, and whispered, “Is fiancée some kind of a joke?”
“Of course it is. I was tricking her,” Zhao Yanzi whispered back righteously.
“Why did you trick her?” Ling asked in confusion.
“I am pissed. Why can’t I?” Zhao Yanzi snorted twice.
After Zhao Yanzi and her classmate joined them, the atmosphere between Hao Ren and Xie Yujia seemed to be a little different. At first, they could still comment on the competition; but now, both of their attentions were on the two middle school girls.
“Is this your sister, Ren?” A few nosy guys who didn’t know anything about Zhao Yanzi came up to Hao Ren and teased him.
Hao Ren thought that these guys were done for as Zhao Yanzi was so short-tempered. However, Zhao Yanzi made an adorable expression and said to them, “Hi, do you guys have any snacks?”
“Ah?” They were stunned when they heard such request from this super cute little girl. They immediately delivered their unopened potato chips, cookies, and beef jerkies to Zhao Yanzi.
“Thank you, big brothers!” Zhao Yanzi gave them a bright smile, causing those guys to almost faint in happiness.
Thus, Zhao Yanzi didn’t even have to go out and buy snacks. She opened up a massive pack of snacks and ate them with Ling as they watched the competition. She completely ignored the existence of Hao Ren.
They were having so much fun that it felt like they were out for a field trip.
Hao Ren was completely speechless and was debating whether or not to report this to her father tonight. To his surprise, she skipped school without feeling guilty at all. This was something that absolutely never happened when he was studying in middle school. She should at least be a little nervous.
Not only Hao Ren, but Xie Yujia also looked at them in astonishment. As a Tri-Merit Student (Also called the three-good student. It’s an award given to students who are athletic, score straight A’s, and have good morality) since she was little, it was difficult for her to imagine that middle schoolers dared to skip school for no reason.
Certainly, what she cared more about was the “fiancée” situation that Zhao Yanzi mentioned. She didn’t believe that this little girl was Hao Ren’s fiancée. Instead, she thought that Zhao Yanzi was merely a naughty little girl. However, she did hear some rumors regarding the Lincoln Stretch Limousin pick up that Hao Ren had as well as his “engagement”.
“Could it be that Hao Ren will be marrying this girl’s older sister?”
“If that’s the case, no wonder Hao Ren couldn’t do anything about her and had to treat her like his little sister,” Xie Yujia analyzed the situation with her intelligent brain.
“However, this little girl is so pretty. Her sister must be even prettier.” Another thought came to Xie Yujia’s mind.
