Real And Fake Young Lady: I Have Seven Brothers Pampering Me After I Transmigrated Novel - Chapter 608

608 People Can Change
The last class in the afternoon was geography. Chu Ning didn’t revise the book’s contents. She took out the administrative map of M City and looked at it carefully.

The area where The Parade was located in was an industrial park. The Parade used to be a large factory. Of course, its geographical location was not very good. At the edge of the industrial park, there was a large undeveloped open area to the east. There were also a few families sporadically situated there. A few kilometers to the west was a scenic spot in M City.

People from this city didn’t need to purchase tickets to visit if they brought with them their identity documents, but Chu Ning hadn’t been there yet.

She was not in the mood to go sightseeing at the moment.

After staring at the map for more than ten minutes, Chu Ning took out a pencil and circled the few scattered households to the east of The Parade. Then, she let out a long sigh of relief, carefully folded the map, and put it into her bag.

After class, just as Chu Ning walked out of the classroom and was about to leave the school, a familiar voice called out her name.

“Chu Ning, wait a moment. I have something to tell you,” Xu Xi shouted from behind Chu Ning.

A few minutes later, Chu Ning and Xu Xi sat opposite each other in a convenience store at the school entrance.

“What’s wrong, Xu Xi?” Chu Ning asked with a smile.

Xu Xi had also helped her with the creation of The Parade.

Even if they didn’t talk about this, she and Xu Xi were classmates and friends. If Xu Xi encountered any difficulties, Chu Ning would be very happy to lend a helping hand.

Xu Xi pondered for a moment and said, “There is indeed something I want to tell you. I think this should be of help to you.

“However, I feel that you seem to have changed a lot.” Xu Xi felt that it was difficult for him to see through Chu Ning’s thoughts now. Chu Ning was gradually becoming unpredictable.

Chu Ning took a sip of milk tea and said softly, “People change.”

“But your change is a little difficult to adapt to…” Xu Xi lowered his head slightly as he spoke, avoiding Chu Ning’s gaze.

Distance.

This was what Xu Xi intuitively felt from Chu Ning.

He wished that Chu Ning would be like she was before. On that day that had been so wonderful to him, Chu Ning had tutored them in the library. She would take the trouble to patiently explain every difficult problem to him, even caring about his health through physical contact… Now that he thought about it, that scene seemed to have happened just yesterday, yet seemed so out of reach.

“We cannot judge the value of a moment until it becomes a memory,” Chu Ning suddenly said.

She had grave concerns. It was not that she was deliberately being cold, but it was not a good thing for her classmates and friends to get too close.

Chu Ning had too many enemies now.

Before she became truly powerful, her abilities were limited. She did not want to implicate her friends because of her own reasons.

A life, once gone, would really be gone, never to be revived.

In the past few months, apart from experiencing a few life-and-death crises, she had already watched those who had been in contact her die, go crazy, or go to prison.

“It’s a very philosophical sentence, but the reason I called you after school was not to waste time chatting with you. I also know that time is extremely precious to you now.” Xu Xi sighed. He did have a very important piece of news to tell Chu Ning.

His eldest uncle was the deputy mayor of M City, and he was very optimistic about his junior. Even so, he had spent a lot of effort to get this news. It could even be said that he had used some ‘improper’ methods to obtain it.

“It’s fine. Chatting with you isn’t a waste of time. I thought you had met with some trouble,” Chu Ning said offhandedly.

“It’s not convenient for me to tell you about this directly, so I’ll write it down on a piece of paper. Then, you should quickly read and remember it.” After Xu Xi finished speaking, he took out a palm-sized piece of white paper and a pen from his bag. Chu Ning didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Xu Xi also took out a lighter.

However, Chu Ning knew that Xu Xi must have his reasons for doing so. After all, his expression was becoming serious.

Thinking of this, Chu Ning held back her curiosity and queries.

Xu Xi stealthily looked around. After ensuring that there was no one around and that the surveillance camera was angled such that it would not capture that area, he speedily wrote on the paper.
This process only lasted for around ten seconds. After he finished writing, he quickly handed the paper to Chu Ning.
