But no matter what, Shen Jun’s attitude towards them was much better than his attitude towards Huang Yue. However, it was also true that the other classmates were a little afraid of him.

Wen Nian knew that Shen Jun was not like other 17-year-olds. He had a unique temperament that was cold and noble. Based on her many years of experience, Wen Nian suspected that Shen Jun’s background was not that of an ordinary rich child.

After pondering for a while, Wen Nian regained her focus and resumed writing the questions. This situation was not her concern. She had no intention of taking shortcuts in life for money. She would only consume what she could afford based on her abilities. If she wanted more, she would work harder to improve her skills.

“Mountains may fall. A person must still rely on themselves!”

Class 2 was separated from Class 3 before they reached the stairs. Huang Yue had lost so much face in front of her classmates that she ran downstairs in embarrassment. Unexpectedly, she was too fast and lost her footing. She slipped and rolled down the stairs, but fortunately, she only rolled five to six steps before reaching the corner platform.

Huang Yue felt like her butt was about to break in two. After a moment, she noticed a few students from her grade looking at her from the stairs. Her face instantly turned red. She tried to stand up to leave quickly, but as soon as she put weight on her right ankle, the pain spread throughout her body.

Huang Yue looked down and noticed that her ankle was extremely red and swollen. She didn’t dare to put any more weight on it. After thinking for a moment, she endured the stares of her classmates and called Wen Nian on the phone. “Wen Nian, I sprained my ankle and can’t walk. Can you please help me to the clinic to get it checked?”

The reason why Huang Yue looked for Wen Nian was because she did not want to miss any opportunity to be alone with Wen Nian. There had been no progress with her plan of convincing Wen Nian to sign a contract with the manager. Huang Yue was also anxious. She endured the embarrassment called Wen Nian.

Wen Nian was a little surprised when she received the call. She was about to reject Huang Yue when the word “clinic” reminded her of something she had heard in her previous life. As a result, she agreed readily. “Okay.”

The call ended and Wen Nian couldn’t help but chuckle. A mischievous smile spread across her face. She felt like if she didn’t take advantage of this opportunity, she would be letting down her friendship with Huang Yue.

Shen Jun watched the little fox beside him leave and smiled. “Interesting.”

After finally leaving the teaching building, Huang Yue heaved a sigh of relief and turned to Wen Nian, “Can you give me a ride on your bicycle?”

Wen Nian had never given anyone a ride on her bicycle before, so she said with a difficult expression, “I don’t know how to carry someone. It’ll be troublesome if you fall again.”

When Huang Yue heard this, she did not dare to let Wen Nian give her a ride anymore. She rolled her eyes impatiently and complained, “How old are you? You don’t even know how to give people a ride.”

Wen Nian had a good temperament and didn’t argue back. She assisted the limping Huang Yue out of the school and listened to Huang Yue’s attempts to persuade her while enduring the pain along the way. She couldn’t help but feel that Huang Yue’s desire to use her was so strong that Huang Yue didn’t even care about her injury.

Wen Nian played along and said helplessly, “Don’t mention my parents, even my brother is against it. He thinks that you instigated me to not study well and has been wanting to settle the score with you. If I hadn’t stopped him, he would have come to our classroom to find you.”

Huang Yue immediately imagined a tall and burly man. If he were to impulsively punch her, she would definitely end up in the hospital! Even if he didn’t do anything physical, just letting him spout nonsense at the classroom door could ruin her reputation that she had been carefully maintaining for so long!

Huang Yue said nervously, “Wen Nian, everything I did was for your own good. If you can’t stop your brother, I won’t tell you anything good in the future!”

Wen Nian nodded seriously and smiled meaningfully. “Don’t worry, I know who treats me well.”

Seeing that Wen Nian’s attitude towards her had returned to how it was before, Huang Yue felt much more at ease. However, she didn’t dare to persuade her anymore. She planned to get the manager that Wei Xiao had hired to contact Wen Nian directly after this. She was only responsible for creating an opportunity to provide information.

The nearest clinic was about 50 meters away from the school gate. When they arrived at the entrance of the clinic, Huang Yue noticed that Wen Nian had no intention of stopping. She reminded her, “Wen Nian, we’re here.”

Wen Nian held Huang Yue’s hand and walked forward, saying, “This is just a small clinic. I remember there’s a community hospital nearby, just a hundred meters ahead. I heard that the doctors there are very skilled!”

Huang Yue could only use one foot to exert force, and the pain was so intense that she was sweating profusely. All she wanted was to find a place to sit down and have the doctor apply medicine to her sprained ankle.

Wen Nian dragged Huang Yue and Huang Yue had no choice but to follow along. If not, it would hurt even more when she touch her sprained ankle. At the same time, she asked Wen Nian to slow down. She was in so much pain that she almost couldn’t speak.
