Chapter 66 Ugly Duckling's Rise to Power: She Squeezes Out the School Beauty and Becomes a Coup
After hearing these words, Ye Xingchen felt that she made a lot of sense, but looking at the thick stack of books, he really couldn't bear to let her bear too much weight.
So he carefully pulled out a few relatively thin books from the top and handed them to Mu Wanwan, saying softly, "Alright then, but you can only take these few. I'll carry the rest."
"Too few! How can this be? Give me more!" Looking at the few books in front of her, she felt a little embarrassed. How could she possibly take away such a small number of books?
"That's enough. With your husband here, I wouldn't let you do such heavy work! Besides, you're still injured, so you absolutely can't carry too many heavy things. Come on, let's go!"
Mu Wanwan followed obediently behind him, like a gentle little lamb.
Before long, they arrived at the classroom door. Inside, Lin Jingya saw Ye Xingchen carrying all the students' books by himself, panting heavily.
Mu Wanwan, on the other hand, simply carried a few books and followed behind, appearing exceptionally relaxed and at ease.
Upon seeing this, Lin Jingya's gaze instantly fixed on Mu Wanwan, a hint of dissatisfaction and jealousy flashing in her eyes.
Immediately afterwards, she bluntly questioned Mu Wanwan: "Mu Wanwan, how could you let Ye Xingchen carry so many books by himself?"
"But you only took this little bit yourself, are you deliberately being lazy?"
Faced with Lin Jingya's sharp words, Mu Wanwan blushed and didn't know how to respond.
"Don't be stubborn and go with the class monitor while you're injured!" Lin Jingya's loud voice attracted the attention of the whole class, while Ye Xingchen slammed the book in his hand on the teacher's desk.
The students were startled, and their attention was drawn back to Ye Xingchen.
Mu Wanwan carefully followed with small, quick steps and gently placed the book on the podium.
Just then, some sharp-eyed students noticed the wound on Mu Wanwan's lips and the faint red marks on her neck. This discovery was like a bombshell, instantly causing an uproar in the classroom.
"Oh my god, even the class monitor is bullying the ugly girl Mu Wanwan?" someone whispered in surprise. After all, the class monitor had promised to take care of Mu Wanwan before!
The class monitor has never been the kind of person who would bully others. He has always been an upright, kind, and helpful model student. Seeing the injuries on Mu Wanwan's body, everyone couldn't help but start to suspect the class monitor.
Especially after what happened yesterday, everyone has a completely new understanding and perspective on Mu Wanwan's character. Therefore, when they all guessed that the class monitor had bullied Mu Wanwan, the way they looked at the class monitor changed subtly.
Under the sympathetic gazes of everyone, Mu Wanwan lowered her head and silently walked back to her seat. Meanwhile, Ye Xingchen, expressionless, casually pointed to a student in front of her and said, "You, distribute these books to everyone."
After saying that, he walked straight to his seat without looking back and sat down steadily.
He stared intently at Lin Jingya, his eyes burning with rage. Then, in a forceful tone, he shouted, "Lin, I told the person I asked to help move the books to carry as many as I wanted! What, do you have a problem with that?"
These words were like a resounding slap in the face to Lin Jingya.
Her cheeks flushed instantly, and she was so embarrassed she didn't know what to do. Clearly, the class monitor was truly furious this time and had no intention of showing Lin Jingya any leniency.
Lin Jingya felt wronged. She was just standing up for him. In the past, she would always accompany him when he went to carry books, and they would each carry half. Why did Mu Wanwan only carry a few books back to the classroom?
"Xingchen, what's wrong with you? Why have you suddenly become like this! The you of the past would never have treated me like this!"
Lin Jingya stared at Ye Xingchen in astonishment and disbelief, tears welling in her eyes. She knew that in the past, when she was with Ye Xingchen, he was always soft-spoken and incredibly gentle.
In just two days, Ye Xingchen seemed to have completely changed. No matter what Lin Jingya offered him—bottles of water or towels—he ignored them completely, refusing to even accept them. What chilled Lin Jingya even more was that when it came to issues requiring a stance, Ye Xingchen no longer supported her, but instead chose to stand on the opposite side.
At this moment, Ye Xingchen said expressionlessly, "Lin, please stop calling me Xingchen from now on. After all, you are a girl and I am a boy. If you call me Xingchen directly, other classmates might misunderstand that there is some kind of improper relationship between us. So, from now on, you should either call me Ye Xingchen directly or call me class monitor!"
The moment those words were spoken, the entire class fell into a deathly silence. All the students stared at them, dumbfounded, their faces filled with surprise and confusion. A chorus of questions arose in their minds: What exactly did the class monitor mean by that? Could it be…?
At this moment, the most shocked person was Yan Xiyue. Her eyes widened as she stared blankly at Lin Jingya, her heart filled with a turbulent storm.
Lin Jingya had told her personally that she and Ye Xingchen were a couple.
Ye Xingchen didn't want to let her studies be affected by her relationship, and she also didn't want her classmates to look at them differently or pay too much attention to their relationship, so the two of them had never gone public with their relationship.
Ye Xingchen resolutely and proactively drew a line between herself and Lin Jingya, an action that undoubtedly showed that everything Lin Jingya had told her before was a false lie.
After learning the truth, Yan Xiyue felt even more ashamed to face Mu Wanwan. Recalling how she had bullied her indignantly yesterday, she felt extremely remorseful.
Although I did have some thoughts of chivalry and standing up for my friend at the time, looking back now, I realize how impulsive and excessive my actions were.
Only then did Yan Xiyue realize just how terrible her behavior had been the day before, and how dark and cunning the seemingly beautiful and kind-hearted Lin Jingya truly was. If she hadn't listened to Lin Jingya's one-sided story, how could she have acted so rashly...?
At this moment, Lin Jingya in the classroom was already feeling extremely uncomfortable and could no longer bear the strange looks from everyone.
You should know that in the eyes of all the students in the school, she and Ye Xingchen had always been a perfect couple.
Whenever classmates teased the two of them, she never denied it; instead, she seemed to tacitly acknowledge their close relationship.
At this moment, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Ye Xingchen ruthlessly severed ties with her in public, unintentionally tearing away Lin Jingya's fig leaf. For the always proud and arrogant Lin Jingya, this was nothing short of a heavy and resounding slap in the face.
"Ye Xingchen, I hate you!" With a roar filled with grief and anger, Lin Jingya suddenly covered her face and ran away without regard for anything else.
