Become a Master of Drawing False Hope in a Tragic Novel [GL]

Chapter 11

Bian Yingning didn't have time to look at the dishes. Her face was turning pale. "Send me the location," she said.

Ignoring the fact that she was still in class, Bian Yingning sneaked out through the back door. She ran like a gust of wind towards the school gate, cursing the system under her breath. "Do you even know what time sensitivity is? Time sensitivity! Are you secretly in love with me and want to kill me and die with me because you can't have me?"

The system replied, "You seemed pretty calm just now."

This was revenge. This was naked revenge!

The driver wouldn't come until she was almost finished with class, so it was a waste of time to call him now. Fortunately, the area around the school was very bustling, and Bian Yingning easily hailed a taxi.

"Driver, hurry to the Seaview Hotel!" she said impatiently as soon as she got in the car.

The driver remained calm and steady, as if nothing could faze him. He started the car methodically and said, "Why are you in such a hurry, kid? You can't break traffic rules no matter how fast you go."

He had a point.

Bian Yingning looked out the window at the thousands of lights passing by, her face sad as she sighed deeply. "Driver, do you believe in love?"

The driver chuckled. "Do you know the rule?"

Bian Yingning was taken aback. "What rule?"

The driver glanced at her in the rearview mirror. "Two hundred for throwing up in the car."

"..."

Love ultimately needed money to foot the bill.

Bian Yingning opened the chat box with Ji Xiaoxue again, just in case. They had left off with Ji Xiaoxue asking if she was coming over.

Bian Yingning typed quickly:

"I miss you too much, I can't wait another second. I'm already in a taxi now. Don't go anywhere, no matter who calls you. It's best to wait for me in a crowded place outside the hotel. I'll be there in ten minutes!"

She was afraid that she would arrive too late and the female lead, Ji Xiaoxue, would be taken away by the male lead. It wasn't the female lead being taken away; it was her own life!

In the hotel's private room, a classmate sitting next to Ji Xiaoxue nudged her. "Xiaoxue, why are you staring at your phone? Let's eat!"

Ji Xiaoxue blushed and put her phone away, still feeling a little dazed.

Her classmates carefully scrutinized her spring-like appearance and teasingly asked, "What's wrong? Chatting with your boyfriend? I thought you said you didn't have one!"

"No, no, it's not like that..." Ji Xiaoxue stuttered, but she couldn't suppress the smile at the corners of her mouth.

"Stop denying it, you wouldn't be smiling like that if there was nothing going on!" Her classmates, who had come out to have fun, were afraid that the world would be too peaceful and started to make a fuss, spreading the news to their friends: "Xiaoxue has something going on!"

"Really? Xiaoxue, you're in the wrong here. If something's going on, why not tell us?"

"Tell us, tell us!"

"Hahaha, what does he look like? Is he from our school?"

Shang Qinghui, who was sitting in the main seat on the other side, was attracted by their commotion and took a distant look at Ji Xiaoxue, who was surrounded by several shy and timid girls. She was bored and looked away.
