Everything was fine, so why did Li Boyang suddenly bring up Lin Shasha's educational background?

Ye Zhuo furrowed her brows ever so slightly as she asked, "What are you trying to say here?"

"Don't misunderstand me. I don't have any opinion of Lin Shasha." Li Boyang continued to speak, "I only think that we will need to prioritize our studies at this stage of our lives now. After all, knowledge can change our lives. Therefore, it's best for you to stay away from the people who only graduated middle school like Lin Shasha."

Li Boyang had a favorable impression of Ye Zhuo, so he genuinely hoped Ye Zhuo would become more outstanding. There was no need for her to be overly exceptional, but at the very least, he wanted her to be able to catch up to him.

"What's wrong with being a middle school graduate? A good educational background can only show that a person's gained more knowledge than ordinary people. However, a good educational background doesn't represent one's accomplishment. The real accomplishment should come from one's heart, so how is it related to a good educational background? Some people are too comfortable that they are aloof and feel that it's already impressive enough to have a good educational background. In truth, these people will never know that they're the ones with a limited view of the world!"

Ye Zhuo enunciated her words clearly and continued, "Could it be that your good educational background has allowed you to badmouth others behind their backs?"

Li Boyang was completely dumbstruck by Ye Zhuo's response. He was blushing scarlet from embarrassment after being criticized by Ye Zhuo to the point where he felt that the classics that he read over the years were for nothing. The extent of his knowledge was actually less than a middle-school student! This realization made Li Boyang narrow his eyes.

Nonetheless, he was only commenting about Lin Shasha. Why did Ye Zhuo have to be so irritated?

Ye Zhuo spoke so ostentatiously because his comment had hurt Lin Shasha's image and her own ego. It seemed that Ye Zhuo was afraid that others would despise her!

At the thought of this, Li Boyang felt better in his heart. "Ye Zhuo, calm down first. I didn't mean that; I was only making a casual comment."

Ye Zhuo then took a glance at Li Boyang. "Shasha is a friend of mine, and she is a very kind, sweet person. Your casual comment had already hurt her without you noticing."

Li Boyang hastily apologized, "I'm, I'm sorry."

"Take note of that next time." Ye Zhuo spoke in a cold tone. Upon saying that, she turned around and walked to the other side of the shop.

For some unknown reason, Li Boyang had a very strange feeling when Ye Zhuo said, 'take note of that next time.' It felt just like a teacher lecturing a student who committed an offense.

Perhaps, that was why he subconsciously apologized to her. Could it be that it was just an illusion?

All of a sudden, Granny Cen walked out from a corner. She nodded in satisfaction as she gazed after Ye Zhuo's departing silhouette.

'Not bad, not bad!'

The more she learned about the young maiden, the more fond of her she became.

She was not someone who put up a facade in front of others and behaved differently behind their backs.

In the gambling house...

Ye Zhuo had not stepped into the gambling house for three consecutive days.
