Absolutely Spoiled - Chapter 29.4

Chapter 29.4

On the second day of school, the teacher made a list of the students in the class. Then, the teacher asked everyone to stand outside the classroom and go in one by one, picking a seat based on their ranking.

Some people liked this method, and some were concerned about it.

Shi Yi was the first in the grade, so he could sit wherever he wanted without competing with anyone. So he didn’t need to stand up.

Shi Yi was still sitting in the second-to-last row. He was used to sitting in the back since he was a kid. When he was young, he had to sit back because of his height, but now he wanted freedom.

Jiang Yuran, the new monitor, chose her seat and walked down to where Shi Yi was sitting.

Li Shaozhou’s eyes suddenly widened. “No, no, no, the monitor won’t sit in the second to last row; my throne will be taken away!”

“Ha.” Qiao Lezhi next to her sneered, “The two of us can only pick up the rest.”

Li Shaozhou ruffled his hair and asked, “Do you think if I ask Brother Yi nicely, he will save me a seat next to him?”

“Yes.” Qiao Lezhi didn’t want to disappoint him, but she had to be honest. “But you need to make him believe it.”

Jiang Yuran decided to sit beside Shi Yi and be his desk partner.

Li Shaozhou and Qiao Lezhi sat in the back this time and sat together at the same table.

Jiang Yuran looked at Shi Yi sometimes. She saw that he was always looking down at the book he was holding. She got a new ruler from the drawer. It was a type with two pieces joined together.

Jiang Yuran gave a ruler to Shi Yi and placed it on his table.

Shi Yi looked up and quickly glanced around, feeling unsure why.

Jiang Yuran said, “Don’t you remember? I sat in front of you during last semester’s final exam. I needed to borrow a ruler from you but accidentally broke it. I didn’t think we would be in the same class, so I got a new one yesterday.

“No need.” He had forgotten it a long time ago.

Shi Yi quickly picked up the ruler from the table and put it back without any hesitation.

Jiang Yuran didn’t give up. She said, “Please take this; otherwise, I will feel guilty.” She sounded like she really wanted to give him something.

“Do you need to give it to me?”

“Here, take it. I owe it to you.”

“Can I use it to do anything I want?”

“Ah.” Even though she didn’t really get what Shi Yi was talking about, Jiang Yuran still agreed.

Shi Yi took the ruler and threw it to Qiao Lezhi, saying, “Here, keep this.”

Qiao Lezhi was surprised when she saw something unknown on the desk and looked at Shi Yi with surprise.

Shi Yi said, “You can use the ruler to have fun. You don’t have to give it back.”

They had known each other for a long time, and he knew that Qiao Lezhi had a hobby that would never end. She enjoyed drawing small grids in notebooks and then playing backgammon with her friends.

To make a grid, you needed a ruler, so it was best to let her use it to play.

Qiao Lezhi felt happy and thanked the person many times for giving her the ruler.

After she got the thing, she quickly started drawing grids in the notebook and then called for Li Shaozhou to play backgammon with her.

Jiang Yuran felt a little uneasy when she saw this. “I gave it to you.”

“Didn’t you say it was okay and let me do it my way?”

Jiang Yuran said, “…”

How could she have known that Shi Yi had taken her stuff and given it to other girls?

After school, Shi Yi gave Qiao Lezhi a plastic bag from his backpack. The two spoke quietly to each other for a moment.

Qiao Lezhi kept nodding her head.

Jiang Yuran felt awkward watching them talk.

She randomly picked up a former classmate from the first and second classes of high school and asked, “Do Shi Yi and Qiao Lezhi have a good relationship?”

When the classmate heard this, he didn’t think much about it. He just said, “Yes, they grew up together, so it’s natural for them to have a good relationship.”

When Jiang Yuran heard this, she felt very upset.

‘I thought they were good friends because they were in the same class for a year, but I didn’t expect that we would have many friendships over the years.’

If Qiao Lezhi listened to Jiang Yuran’s thoughts, she would be very surprised and shocked.

Only Qiao Lezhi knew that Shi Yi had been able to become closer to her, the opposite sex, with the help of Yu Zhiyi for many years.

********

Another day, when Yu Zhiyi went back to school, she left her underwear on the bed at home. This caring “brother” brought the item and requested that Qiao Lezhi give it to Yu Zhisi when she came back to the dorm. Besides that, there were also three presents.

Shi Yi said, “Give the green box to Wen Tingyu, the purple box to Jiang Mier, and keep the orange one for yourself, but don’t tell Yiyi.”

“Sure, I’ll finish the task, no worries.”

Shi Yi bought three gifts to bribe them and let them take care of Yu Zhiyi.

Li Shaozhou had just come back from the toilet. When he saw the gift box, he suddenly felt unbalanced. “Brother Yi, you are partial. You gave Qiao Qiao a gift. Why don’t you give it to me?”

“You big mouth! Shut up!” Qiao Lezhi almost couldn’t help but slap him in the face, covering his loud voice. “If you fail to succeed, you will fail.”

“Bah, bah, bah.”

The two were about to quarrel again.

Jiang Yuran guessed in his mind. “Shi Yi doesn’t like Qiao Lezhi, right?” she asked a classmate.

The classmate next to her gave her a strange look and expressed surprise at her question, “Why do you think so?”

Jiang Yuran was puzzled. “Isn’t it true? Shi Yi treats her very well.”

“No, that’s not the truth.” No one in the first or second grade of high school had ever seen Shi Yi really treat someone well.

Seeing Jiang Yuran’s confused expression now was the same as when they first met Yu Zhiyi.

The classmate suddenly became interested and said, “This is really not good; just wait and see. If nothing unexpected happens, she should come over.”

“Who is she?” Jiang Yuran asked.
