Chapter 2 The King's Back Garden 01
The next morning, I jumped out of bed, quickly washed up, put on my uniform, took a piece of bread, ate it, and hummed an unclear tune as I walked towards the school.
The roads today seem especially clean, the flowers in the roadside flower beds are smiling lovely faces, the clouds in the azure sky are white and beautiful, everything is beautiful to the extreme, and the best thing is my mood, la la la…
Maybe God was compensating me for being tortured for more than three hours yesterday. When I arrived at the mall, I happened to catch a promotion. All mobile phones were on sale, including my beloved Ice Cream phone. So I used my saved pocket money and the more than 300 yuan I got from Duanmu Jichu, and successfully bought the Ice Cream phone, and got 50 yuan in change.
Hehe, it was that 50 yuan that saved my life, because I took the 50 yuan home and gave it to my mother, and said it was a tip from the customer to compensate me for staying and helping him clean the house, and I successfully deceived her. At the end, she even said: "Xiao Ye, you are really capable. Next time you meet a generous customer, remember to work harder, maybe you can get more tips."
Well, although I should cry for having such a stingy mother who values money more than her own daughter who depends on her for everything, it is also thanks to my mother's greed for money that I was able to hide the fact that I served as a teddy bear for others for more than three hours and bought a mobile phone secretly.
"Ye Ye!"
As soon as I walked into the school gate, I heard someone calling me from behind. The voice was very arrogant, and it pronounced my name like a rap. I rolled my eyes and turned around, and sure enough, I saw several girls from my class walking towards me in a group.
"Ye Ye, there was a bonfire party at school last night. Unfortunately, you didn't have a cell phone, so I couldn't notify you. You won't blame me, right?"
The publicity officer Jin Luli, who was wearing red contact lenses and had changed her school uniform into a miniskirt, walked towards me arrogantly with two followers, staring at me with a smirk.
The two followers also had a strong sense of professional ethics. As soon as Jin Luli finished her previous sentence, they immediately joined in to help:
"Oh, what a pity! Yesterday's bonfire party was so wonderful!"
"Yes, yes, Master Leo also participated."
"Yes, yes, there is also Master Ximen. I am so happy to see the true face of Master Ximen. I heard that Master Ximen likes quietness and rarely comes to school..."
"I also took a lot of photos of the party. It's so convenient to have a cell phone. Haha."
As they talked enthusiastically, they took out their phones and held them in front of me to show off, obviously wanting to embarrass me and then show envy to them. Humph! Unfortunately, their wishful thinking was wrong. I, Ye Ye, have escaped the abominable title of "the only person in Aurora College without a mobile phone".
Thinking of this, I snorted coldly, and the new mobile phone in my pocket rang very punctually. Yes, I had guessed that Jin Luli would never miss any opportunity to humiliate me, so I set the alarm on my phone in advance to ring every few minutes. Hahaha...
I heard the ringtone, pretended to casually take out my new phone from my pocket, opened the slider, and called the person who didn't exist:
"Oh, I'm telling you not to call me on my cell phone casually. I'm very busy, okay?"
"Tonight at 9 o'clock? That KTV again? It's terrible! I won't go there. If I have to go, I'll go to Xinghua... That's right, only a luxurious place like Xinghua is worthy of my status."
"No, no, I'm tired of driving that BMW. I'd rather drive a Ferrari. A red Ferrari is cooler."
"Well, it's settled. Remember to pick me up."
…
After a long and chaotic phone conversation, I pretended to close the sliding cover. I looked back at Jin Luli and asked sincerely, "Jin Luli, what did you just say? Oh, I remember that my mom asked me to keep a low profile at school, so I forgot to tell you my cell phone number. Sorry. But I thought about it and realized that we are classmates, so how can we not exchange cell phone numbers? What's your number? I'll call you."
"Ah...159XXXXXXXX..."
Jin Luli was completely confused about the situation. She stared at me for three seconds, mechanically called out a number, and then saved my number .
I turned around and left with satisfaction. After walking a few steps, I heard a murmur of discussion coming from behind:
"Lulu, what is Ye Ye's background?"
"She sounds like she's very rich."
"I once saw her fighting with some hooligans outside the school. Could her family be gang members?"
"Anyway, it's better for us not to provoke her until we can figure out the situation."
…
After all this trouble, plus my cell phone ringing every few minutes, it wasn't long before the whole class knew I had a cell phone, and I took this opportunity to exchange numbers with everyone in the class.
"Ye Ye, I heard you bought a new phone, can we take a look at it?"
"Wow, what a beautiful ice cream phone!"
"Let's exchange numbers."
"And I……"
"I'll ask you to go shopping together next time."
…
"Oh, I have a photo of Master Ji Chu. I took it secretly. It's perfect for my standby screen!" After class, I gathered with a few girls who didn't talk much to each other and forwarded beautiful mobile wallpapers to each other. Suddenly, a girl squeezed in excitedly, holding up her phone and shouting proudly, "I took it secretly when Master Ji Chu came to our class to select students with special talents. Master Ji Chu was standing next to me at the time. I was so nervous and excited..."
Master Ji Chu...
When I heard this name, I don’t know why, but the good mood that I had accumulated over the morning disappeared in an instant.
Well, if it were in the past, I might be very excited to hear news about him, but after what happened last night, my enthusiasm for Duanmu Jichu has completely disappeared. Now in my eyes, he is just a profit-seeking businessman.
Humph, that's right. He spent so much time calculating with me even for a mere few hundred dollars, and he deducted more than three hundred dollars from me. He is simply a stingy bastard!
But wait, what does "Master Ji Chu came to our class to select students with special talents" mean? Why haven't I heard of it before?
"Qiu Yueyue, what did you say just now? Ji Chu..." Uh, I can no longer add the word "young master" after Duanmu Ji Chu's name, "He... will come to our class?"
If he finds me here, I'll be dead, right? By now, he should have stepped on a "rice cake mine"...
"Don't you know? Ye Ye..." Xiao Fei, who was sitting next to me, looked at me in surprise and said, "Aurora College was originally funded by the AURORA Group, so this school has an unwritten rule that the heir of AURORA can go to each class to select talents he thinks are useful and let them go to the full-time secretary training class prepared for the president of AURORA. He can also expel people from the full-time secretary training class at will based on everyone's performance... You don't even know such an important thing? Those who stand out from the full-time secretary training class can become Master Ji Chu's full-time secretary, which means they can be with Master Ji Chu 24 hours a day!"
Xiao Fei's eyes sparkled when she said this, and Qiu Yueyue immediately nodded and agreed, "That's right, that's what we worked so hard to get into Aurora College for. Becoming Master Ji Chu's full-time secretary is my dream!"
Oh my god…oh my god…
Full-time secretary training course!
There is such a ridiculous class in the world! And who does Duanmu Jichu think he is? Is he the king of this school? Why does he treat everyone in the school as his reserve army, and can select and expel them at will... He is indeed a self-righteous and arrogant person!
Just when I was complaining about Duanmu Jichu's character with a gloomy face, there was a sudden commotion and screams in the corridor outside the classroom, and then I heard Jin Luli's deliberately imitated charming voice: "Master Jichu is here to select students with special talents again? Master Jichu, what do you think of me? I can make cakes and bake Western biscuits, and I know a little bit of singing and dancing..."
What? Duanmu Jichu is coming to the class to select students with special talents? Oh my god, what should I do? Where should I hide? I sat in my seat for a few seconds with my head in my hands, then I decisively got under the table.
Just as I got under the table, Duanmu Jichu's perfect face with an arrogant sneer appeared at the door of the classroom. He crossed his arms, squinted his eyes and looked at Jin Luli, who had volunteered, and habitually commented: "Your makeup is too thick, your taste is too poor, and your talent is just a consumable for entertainment. You can't create value. You are not even the lowest-grade defective product. The full-time secretary training class does not need a waste like you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Luli covered her face and ran away crying, shocked. I was hiding under the table, gritting my teeth in anger at his words.
What do you mean by "not even the lowest grade defective goods"? Even if you are rich and powerful, you have no right to judge others like this, asshole!
Although I usually can't stand Jin Luli's changing colored contact lenses and her miniskirt that barely covers her butt, but for some reason, when I heard my classmates being evaluated like this by him, I couldn't help but get angry and slammed the leg of the table with one hand.
"It's you."
The table above my head was suddenly moved away, and there was a bright light above my head. Then a voice that would give me nightmares rang in my ears, and a chill surrounded me. Then someone reached out and grabbed the collar of my neck and lifted me up from the ground.
"ah--"
The person who lifted me must have been very tall, probably Duanmu Jichu's bodyguard or someone else, but he was standing behind me and I couldn't see him clearly. I could only scream subconsciously when my feet left the ground, and then Duanmu Jichu's perfect face with no flaws appeared in front of me.
"Should I call you classmate 320 or classmate Nian Gao?" Duanmu Jichu crossed his arms, glanced at me, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a devilish smile.
Uh, Sanbaier classmate? Nian Gao classmate? Come on, both names sound terrible!
However, hearing what he said, coupled with his murderous look, I could clearly tell that he must have stepped on my "rice cake mine". Ah ha ha, I don't know why, my mood suddenly became happy, but I am a well-educated person, and I always act cute after getting an advantage , so in this situation, I must not show it, hehe.
"Ah...hahaha...whatever, Young Master Ji Chu, you can call me whatever you want. I won't have any objection." I smiled brightly and looked at Duanmu Ji Chu in a servile manner, trying my best to make myself look innocent.
"Then let's call it Nian Gao. You don't have to use your original name anymore. I will change the name on your student record to Nian Gao."
Duanmu Jichu saw my smiling face and raised his eyebrows insidiously, then looked around and announced to everyone: "From now on, her name will be Nian Gao. Anyone who dares to call her by her original name will no longer have to come to school. Also, Nian Gao will be transferred to the full-time secretary training class starting tomorrow, so everyone should say goodbye to her properly."
Hey, what does this mean? What does "from now on her name will be Nian Gao" mean?
Why should I be called Nian Gao? And why should even the name on my student record be changed?
"I don't want to be called Nian Gao, what do you mean? And I don't want to go to any full-time secretary training class! Hey, Duanmu Jichu, stop right there!"
The shame of losing my name made me lose my mind. I was hung in the air by the collar and waved my arms and legs hard, but before I could finish shouting, Duanmu Jichu turned around and left the classroom.
I was thrown to the ground after he left. Then the burly man who grabbed me by the collar walked up to me and glared at me fiercely, successfully shutting my complaints back into my stomach. The words cursing Duanmu Jichu immediately turned into: "Master Jichu, take care. Come and visit us often when you have time. Ha... ah ha ha..."
Come on, are you the madam of a brothel? How can you say such disgusting things as "come and play often when you have time"?
I sat down on the ground dejectedly, cursing my own incompetence in my heart. Woohoo, if only I could have a bit more backbone.
