Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Ling’er had a frightened expression as she looked at Wen Nuan’s car. ‘Is this safe?’
Wen Nuan saw how scared Ling’er was. She said unhappily, “You’re my very first passenger. Shouldn’t you be honored?”
The corner of Jiang Ling’er’s mouth twitched. Instead of feeling honored, she felt like a test subject. She said, “Um… When did you get your driver’s license?”
Wen Nuan said excitedly, “Three months ago! I’ve never had the chance to
show off my driving skills before, but now, I’ll let you see just how good 1 am.”
Jiang Ling’er coughed lightly. She had already learned how to drive at 15, and she considered herself a good driver. “Why don’t you let me drive instead?”
Wen Nuan unlocked the car and said, “You’re not old enough to drive. Besides, do you even have a driver’s license?”
Jiang Ling’er sighed. “True, I’m not old enough to get a driver’s license yet.
Forget it, let’s just go shopping.”
After saying that, Jiang Ling’er opened the car door and hopped in.
Wen Nuan carefully started the car and slowly drove off. “How was the exam?”
Jiang Ling’er said, “It wasn’t difficult at all. Focus on driving. We can talk later.”
Wen Nuan nodded and stopped talking.
Soon after, the two of them arrived at the underground parking lot of the bustling commercial street.
Wen Nuan stopped several times before she finally parked her car.
Wen Nuan said proudly, “What are your thoughts about my driving skills? I’m awesome, right?”
Jiang Ling’er said, “Not bad. You’ve only had your license for three months. You should be proud to reach this level already.”
Despite a few twists and turns, Jiang Ling’er felt that the entire journey was safe.
Wen Nuan said with a smile, “Of course, I have to drive extra carefully. It’s the first time I have a passenger with me.”
Jiang Ling’er said, “Nuannuan, remember to drive slowly. If you really want to drive fast, go to the race track and run two laps.”
As they chatted, they took the elevator and went upstairs.
Wen Nuan asked, “Ling’er, since you said that the competition questions from the other day was not difficult, does it mean that you can easily enter the provincial competition?”
Jiang Ling’er nodded. “That’s right.”
Wen Nuan asked, “Do you reckon you can get first place again?”
Jiang Ling’er said, “It’s hard to say. All 1 can guarantee you is that I’ll be in the provincial competition.”
Wen Nuan thought inwardly, ‘1 guess the questions were really a piece of cake for Ling’er.’
She said, “You’re really amazing!”
The duo chatted about all sorts of things while shopping.
At around 3 pm, they had afternoon tea before Wen Nuan sent Jiang Ling’er back.
The next day, the results of the city competition were announced.
Jiang Ling’er got first place again. Seeing her results, those who doubted her could only shut their mouths.
Among the crowd, a boy mocked, “Last week, Bai Xue had reported Jiang Ling’er for cheating without evidence. At that time, many people said that Bai Xue apologized publicly because she was coerced by the Jiang family. Now, who dares to say that Ling’er cheated?”
Another student spoke up, “Bai Xue was jealous of Jiang Ling’er’s success, so she maliciously reported her. But because she couldn’t prove her accusations, she asked her diehard fans to slander Ling’er instead.”
Another onlooker said, “Who said that Jiang Ling’er was a slacker who only got admitted to school through the back door? Ling’er is clearly an extraordinary student!”
Someone else pitched in, “Jiang Ling’er has been hiding her abilities all this time. Who knew she was so awesome?”
A girl chimed in, “It feels great to slap those slanderers on the face. I predict Ling’er will get into the top ten of the provincial competition.”
When Old Wang heard these people praising Jiang Ling’er, he felt dissatisfied. “Hmph. Don’t praise Jiang Ling’er too much. Most of the geniuses in the city didn’t participate in this competition. You can’t treat Jiang Ling’er as a top student just because of this.”
The girl who just spoke looked at Old Wang in disdain. “What are you doing here? Are you one of those geniuses? If you’re not at their level, then you have no right to talk sh*t.”
Old Wang felt a little guilty, but he said stubbornly, “I’m just reminding you this out of good intentions. Do you really believe that Jiang Ling’er is so special?”
The girl said sarcastically, “I can’t be bothered with your ‘good’ intentions.”
Some other girls came over and sized up Old Wang. One of them said, “Just the other day, I saw this guy talking to a certain someone, but that certain someone quickly got into another guy’s car. It’s clear that this guy here is a bootlicker of that certain someone.”
The girl from before facepalmed and said, “Look at my memory. Someone has way too many bootlickers.”
Old Wang retorted furiously, “Not only is your memory bad, but you’re also unreasonable. What I’m trying to say is that the geniuses aren’t even interested in this competition.. Is that hard to understand?”
