Early morning. An Qing opened her eyes right on time, just like usual.
Although it had only been twice, An Qing had already grown accustomed to the days when An Yu did not come home.
Hmph.
She let out a cold laugh.
After all, whether An Yu was home or not made no difference to her.
When An Yu returned, she would only shut herself in her room anyway, with zero interaction between them.
An Qing sat up. These past few days, she had been feeling this way—irritable, yet unsure exactly what she was irritated about.
She casually picked up the phone beside her. There were no new messages.
She and Chen Guang had not contacted each other at all these past few days.
And after this, she had no intention of reaching out either.
The girl sat up and slowly pulled on a fresh pair of black stockings.
Her crimson eyes held no trace of spirit, only emptiness remained.
Chen Guang was useless now.
An Qing could not understand why An Yu did not care about the An family members.
But she guessed that Chen Guang must have already become the most insignificant one in An Yu’s eyes.
Even An Qing herself had not noticed that these past few days, it was because An Yu now had Ning Wanciu.
Wasn’t that it?
Because the moment she got home, she would read the yuri manga that Chen Yu had given her. Unknowingly, her thinking had begun to shift.
She had started to feel that it was quite normal for girls to be together.
If it had been before, she would still believe that An Yu liked Chen Guang.
But after these few days of influence, An Qing had long realized that dating was not limited to the opposite sex.
She had also heard the story from Shen Huahua’s mouth.
Chen Guang had tried to approach An Yu, but An Yu did not even raise her head before Chen Guang was chased out.
Didn’t that perfectly explain how Ning Wanciu occupied a more important position, causing An Yu to ignore Chen Guang completely?
This was perfect. An Qing did not want to deal with Chen Guang anymore either.
In a sense, this was also a form of liberation.
As for why she had not deleted Chen Guang’s contact, it was because An Qing still needed to confirm one final thing.
That was exactly what An Yu’s attitude toward the An family members was.
Until then, she still needed Chen Guang as a shield to help her fight for everything in the An family.
Anyway, that disgusting guy—if she left him hanging for a few days, he would come pestering her again sooner or later.
She knew he possessed an inexplicable, almost nauseating confidence, which was also the point An Qing hated most about him.
She still understood Chen Guang somewhat.
And it was precisely because of this that he would also leave girls who did not take the initiative to contact him alone for a period of time.
Just like now.
Because she had not replied to his messages, Chen Guang had also not contacted her these past few days, seemingly starting to play his game of playing hard to get.
No matter what, this suited An Qing’s intentions perfectly.
Huu—
An Qing stood up and brushed aside her long black hair with an icy expression.
Her cold face paired with her incomparably alluring features made her resemble the heroine of a revenge story even more.
It was just that she had begun reconsidering her methods of revenge.
If this approach had issues, then she would change to another one.
She casually picked up the manga book on the bed, walked to the corner of the room, and placed it into another cardboard box.
Then, from among the “gifts” filled with books, she randomly selected one.
An Qing did not know what meaning there was in reading these things, but it did feel quite relaxing.
At the very least, it allowed her to empty her mind and stop constantly thinking about matters concerning An Yu, the An family, and the Chen family.
An Qing picked up one book and casually flipped it open for a look before preparing to put it back. She needed to know what type of book she would read tonight, right?
However, the instant she opened the book, a slip of paper fell out from inside.
An Qing subconsciously bent down to pick it up, only to see a string of numbers written on it.
This… was what?
An Qing frowned, confusion filling her crimson eyes.
On the other side, at the Chen family home.
Inside Chen Yu’s room, besides Chen Yu himself, there was also a gorgeous girl wearing a school uniform.
For some reason, even though the girl before him was very pleasing to the eye, Chen Yu looked rather embarrassed.
“Huang Ke Ling… You’re not going to school. What are you wandering around my room for?”
The girl in the school uniform before Chen Yu was precisely Huang Ke Ling.
She had successfully transferred to An Yu’s school.
Now, having changed into her uniform, she had come to Chen Yu’s room, as if to show off her new school uniform to him.
Facing Chen Yu’s question, Huang Ke Ling kept her eyes half-lidded, appearing quite indifferent.
“Because it’s the school uniform that you, Young Master, specified.”
“Mm. This school’s uniform does look quite good. The skirt is also very short. Lift it up and you can see right away, Young Master.”
As Huang Ke Ling spoke, she actually lifted the hem of her skirt slightly with a cold face.
“No wonder you like it.”
“W-wait a second. What are you doing?”
“Hm? Isn’t this what you wanted to see, Young Master? Otherwise, why would you have me transfer there?”
“What nonsense are you spouting!” Chen Yu felt a headache coming on.
“Didn’t I explain it clearly to you last time? How did it turn into this again?”
Looking at the cold-faced Huang Ke Ling before him, Chen Yu did not even know how to complain anymore.
She was always like this.
He had no idea what she was thinking at all! Were all capable people this weird?!
“Is that so… Like this? I thought that reason was just an excuse and that Young Master simply wanted to see the maid wearing a school uniform.”
“How is that possible.”
Chen Yu was nearly angered into laughter by her.
“No, stop playing dumb with me here… Hey, put the skirt down! Don’t lift it again!”
Mid-sentence, Huang Ke Ling lifted her skirt in front of him once more.
However, she blocked the view perfectly, so no matter how one looked, the contents inside could not be seen.
Although Chen Yu was not deliberately looking anyway.
But it was precisely this that seemed to leave Huang Ke Ling somewhat dissatisfied.
“I’m also wearing the style you specified underneath.”
She narrowed her eyes slightly and nodded faintly. “By the way, Young Master.”
“What?”
Chen Yu was stunned and subconsciously glanced toward the hem of Huang Ke Ling’s skirt.
The skirt was lifted slightly, but the contents remained invisible no matter what.
“No! I never specified what was inside at all!”
Having realized, Chen Yu’s face flushed red, but he quickly explained, “That’s not right either. The outside one wasn’t specified by me!”
Pfft?
Seeing Chen Yu’s flustered state, Huang Ke Ling let out a pfft laugh, but quickly returned to her poker face.
It happened in an instant. Chen Yu almost thought he was seeing things.
“Young Master, I don’t have time to play with you anymore. I need to attend class at the school you specified.”
Huang Ke Ling gave a slight bow, then left Chen Yu’s room.
Watching Huang Ke Ling quickly slip away, Chen Yu was stunned for a moment.
Recalling the scene from earlier, he shook his head.
“Tsk, she looks pretty nice when she smiles.”
Mm.
