Chapter 100: Still Can’t Get Used to It

Ning Li woke up a little later than usual. When she arrived at school, the morning session of self-learning class was over.

Lu Huaiyu suggested that she take a day off for a good rest, but she insisted on going to school.

She snuck into class through the backdoor.

When she sat in her seat, He Xiaochen looked at her in shock. “Ning Li?! Didn’t you get some sleep last night?”

Her eyes had red veins around the edges, and she looked like she had burned the midnight oil.

Nevertheless, Ning Li shook her head. “I’m fine.”

She had not planned to sleep at all, but she fell asleep in the end without even realizing it. It was the first in many years. Even though she only had an hour of sleep, it was the best sleep she had in years.

He Xiaochen felt bad for the girl. She took her water bottle and said, “I’ll get you some water. Meanwhile, get some rest.”

Before Ning Li could stop her, Ye Ci’s voice came from in front. “Sister Ning Li! I’m glad that you are fine!”

Ning Li frowned.

Ye Ci came over when she saw Ning Li walk in.

While holding two water bottles in her hand, He Xiaochen was stunned when she heard Ye Ci. Ye Ci’s words sounded like Ning Li had almost gotten involved with something dangerous.

Ning Li leaned back in the chair and looked at her. She asked, “What could possibly have happened to me?”

Ye Ci feigned a relief sigh. “You didn’t come home last night. We were worried about you, especially Mom. She waited for you in the living room for the entire night and only went to bed in the morning.”

She intentionally raised her voice when she explained the matter to Ning Li. The class already knew the strange relationship between her and Ning Li. Furthermore, she turned heads when she walked over to Ning Li’s seat. When the class heard what she said, the lively ambiance died off quite a bit.

Many other students turned around and looked at her.

Last night, Ye Ci and Ning Li had left school together, yet Ye Ci claimed that Ning Li did not go home for the entire night and that her mother had stayed up all night for her.

Ning Li raised a brow. “Really? What a surprise. I think that’s her first time staying up for me.”

The look on Ye Ci’s face froze for a moment.

Ning Li smiled in a profound manner. “I still can’t get used to it.”

Ye Ci felt embarrassed. It was Ning Li’s fault for staying out the whole night, yet when the words came out of her mouth, it sounded like others had wronged her.

Ye Ci paused slightly before she asked, “I heard from Brother Xiyue that you spent the night with Lu…”

Before she could utter Lu Huaiyu’s name, Ning Li was already glaring at her. “What are you trying to get out of me?”

Ye Ci was diffident in front of Ning Li’s glare as if all her thoughts were exposed under the light. She unconsciously altered her words. “N-nothing.”

Ning Li had a glance at her watch. It was a minute away from the start of Mathematics class, the first class of the day. She said to He Xiaochen, “I’ll go have a nap in the office, and I’ll come back for the next class.”

Lin Zhouyang, who had just come back from the English teacher’s office, was devastated after hearing what Ning Li said.

Ning Li was inhuman! Not only did she sleep in class, but she even wanted to sleep at the office!
