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

Chapter 21

Ignoring the presence of Hua Jiangrong, Bian Yingning nodded and bowed to the teacher to express her apology.

"Alright, alright, go ahead. Be more serious in class next time. If you don't understand, learn diligently. Chefs will throw away the pots if they can't stir the food properly. Do you want people to laugh at you?" Mr. Jiang waved his hand as if he was shooing a fly and didn't bother to argue with her.

Bian Yingning didn't care about the teacher's attitude and quickly put the milk tea on his desk, saying, "Thank you, teacher. Have a good afternoon!"

Then she waved goodbye to Hua Jiangrong and said, "Auntie, see you later. Let me treat you to milk tea when you have time!"

Hua Jiangrong just gave her a dignified smile in response.

After Bian Yingning left, Mr. Jiang  handed the milk tea left by her to Hua Jiangrong and asked, "Auntie? Do you know her?"

Hua Jiangrong waved her hand and declined the teacher's kindness. She wasn't a little girl anymore and didn't like to drink these things. Besides, she needed to maintain her figure, and such things were like poison to her.

"She and Cancan are good friends, so she calls me Auntie because of her."

Mr. Jiang nodded, not sure what he was thinking, and said slowly after a long while, "Let's go."

Hua Jiangrong followed him and said, "I hope everything goes smoothly today."

"It will."

...

As soon as Bian Yingning left the office building, she immediately called Hua Cancan.

The melodious sound of a violin came from Hua Cancan's end of the phone, seemingly from a high-end restaurant.

She lowered her voice and spoke quickly, "What are you doing? Didn't we say we wouldn't have lunch together? Don't bother me on my date!"

Bian Yingning: "..." Did she really have to be so blunt about finding a replacement when she was rejected?

"I don't regret asking you to have lunch with me. I just wanted to tell you that I found a big secret!"

"What secret? Can't you tell me later? You'll see me this afternoon, so hold on a bit longer."

Hua Cancan acted as if she was going to hang up.

Bian Yingning sighed and said softly, "I was going to tell you about your aunt's gossip."

There was silence on the other end for a moment. "You can tell me now."

Bian Yingning's voice lowered. "Forget it, I don't want to disturb your date. We'll see each other this afternoon. I'll try to endure it."

Is there a friend more considerate than her in the world? Probably not.

Hua Cancan: "?"

Then Bian Yingning hung up the phone.

She had just hung up with Hua Cancan when her phone rang again almost immediately.

Bian Yingning was surprised to see that Hua Cancan was so interested in her aunt's gossip.

According to the original owner's personality, she should have been indifferent to the call at this point.

Although Bian Yingning is not the original owner, she thinks she should do the same, so she put her phone on silent and stuffed it in her pocket.

Just as Bian Yingning was about to look for food to eat, she looked up and saw Ji Xiaoxue holding a few documents with a complicated expression standing in front of her.
