MY BEAUTIFUL BRIDE, VOLUME 9 - Season 15 Episode 40

After hanging at Gu Jingyan’s place for the night and having dinner there, they headed home.When it was time for school, they entered school together again.
Everyone looked. Gu Jingyan walked in with Lu Beichen for a long time, but there were more people this time. Boss Xu, Little Q, Fu Chenxi, Gu Jingyan, and Lu Beichen were together.

Sometimes, they could naturally see Gu Jingyan and Lu Beichen walking together. Everyone didn’t have to say how much more matching and harmonious they looked together.

In comparison, Fu Chenxi was a little too meek. She did not have the poise that Gu Jingyan had.

The group only separated to go to their own classrooms.

In class, the teacher reminded them that the final exam was next month.

Gu Jingyan then remembered what the teacher said. If Lu Beichen did not pass the next exam, she would be punished with him.

After class, she turned around to Lu Beichen and said, “Hey, please do well for this exam. I don’t want to get punished with you.”

Lu Beichen also recalled. “There’s still time before the exam.”

Gu Jingyan saw his attitude and felt hopeless. She looked up and sighed. “Nevermind. I must have been indebted to you in my past life.”

On account that he saved her before, Gu Jingyan did not want to argue with him over this anymore. She turned back and did not speak further.

Seeing this, Lu Beichen thought for a while and then threw a paper ball at her.

Gu Jingyan frowned and turned to him. “What?”

Lu Beichen said, “Fine. Let’s do revision tonight, alright?”

“Really?”

“Yes, really. Since you’re useful in that aspect, at least.”

Lu Beichen said speechlessly when he saw Gu Jingyan’s enchanting smile.

Gu Jingyan smiled wider. “Of course. I’m a good student.”

At night, the three of them revised together.

Boss Xu and Little Q came over to check on them and realized that the three were actually studying. They were extremely bored and said, “Alright, you guys can continue being good students. We’re going for a ride.”

Gu Jingyan looked at them contemptuously. “Alright. If you can get in, we’ll send you food.”

After the two left, they continued revising.

Fu Chenxi’s grades were average as well. On the other hand, Gu Jingyan really seemed to be good at everything. No questions stumped her.

Fu Chenxi looked enviously at Gu Jingyan. “Why are you so brilliant? I really can’t remember anything. I don’t know what to do.”

Gu Jingyan said, “This is really not difficult. You’re simply not concentrating hard enough. You don’t understand the meaning of the question and you’re already writing your answer. That is why you don’t score well. See? Isn’t it the same for this question?”

“But I really can’t remember. I think English is so hard, but you do so well in it.”

Lu Beichen said, “Alright. It’s not that there’s anything wrong with your brain. You are normal. She is the abnormal one.”

“Huh?” Fu Chenxi looked at him.

Lu Beichen said, “It’s all the same in her family. Her eldest brother, Gu Jingming, is a rising star in politics. He graduated from Stanford University. Her second brother skipped so many grades that he got admitted to the University of Chicago in his teens. He even took on three degrees at the same time. All the brains in her family are weird. Why are you comparing with her?”

Fu Chenxi looked at Gu Jingyan with even more admiration. “Woah. Your brothers are so brilliant! No wonder. It probably runs in your genes too. Sigh.”

Fu Chenxi was amazed. This must have been Heaven’s will. If she couldn’t, she couldn’t.

Gu Jingyan said, “Hey, don’t blame the gods just because you can’t do it. This also depends on abilities. You don’t understand what you study yourself.”

“Oh. You make it sound as if your English standard has nothing to do with you growing up with a nanny who has a Ph.D. in philosophy from Cambridge University.”

Fu Chenxi was slowly starting to get jealous.

It turned out that they had British nannies since they were young. Not wonder it seemed like she didn’t have to study and was still so fluent.

As for herself, she only started learning English from third grade in elementary school. Of course, she didn’t understand anything.

Gu Jingyan said, “Hurry up and do your work.”

Lu Beichen laughed and continued studying.

Fu Chenxi looked at the two and sighed in her heart. She felt that she was in a completely different world from them.

But thankfully, Lu Beichen probably didn’t fancy Gu Jingyan in that way either. Perhaps he had been surrounded by such people all the time so he would find Fu Chenxi more special.

Fu Chenxi would worry that spending a long time with Gu Jingyan would make Lu Beichen neglect her. When she saw how he interacted in the same way with Boss Xu and Little Q, she felt that they were probably all just friends.

As his girlfriend, she shouldn’t be suspicious of her boyfriend like this.

Thus, she controlled herself as much as possible and tried not to become a nosy girlfriend.

When Gu Jingyan was finished with her classes, she saw Ceng Kai at the entrance.

He saw Gu Jingyan. “Ah, it’s very cold today. You’re just wearing those?”

Gu Jingyan didn’t wear for warmth today. She did not notice in the morning, but it actually started snowing in the afternoon.

Ceng Kai said, “Put this on.”

“Huh?”

Ceng Kai took off his down jacket and handed it to Gu Jingyan.

“But I…”

Ceng Kai only wore a cotton T-shirt inside. He tossed the jacket to Gu Jingyan and went ahead on his own.

Gu Jingyan watched helplessly as he quickly got into a car. Standing there, she could only grab the jacket and sigh.

Actually, she was going to be getting in the car soon and it wouldn’t be very cold.

The next day, she had no choice but to go to Ceng Kai’s class.

Ceng Kai was one year older than them. He was a sophomore.

At the entrance to their class, she tugged someone. “Can you get Ceng Kai for me?”

The student looked at Gu Jingyan and was stunned for a moment.

Then, he quickly ran in at the speed of the wind as if he discovered something unbelievable.

“Wow, Ceng Kai. A gorgeous lady is looking for you.”

Standing at the door, Gu Jingyan heard the excited voice and rolled her eyes.

So exaggerated.

Ceng Kai then quickly came out.

When he saw Gu Jingyan, he smiled coyly. “You’re here.”

Gu Jingyan passed a paper bag to him. “It’s been dry-cleaned. Thank you.”

Although she did not wear it, she still got it dry-cleaned before returning it to him.

Ceng Kai smiled wider. “It was just for a while. You didn’t have to get it dry-cleaned. This will look like I gave you my jacket so that you could clean it.”

“Haha. So this was your motive for lending me your jacket,” Gu Jingyan said jokingly.

Ceng Kai laughed. “Yes, yes, you caught me.”

Gu Jingyan then realized that the students behind were all looking at her with curiosity in their eyes. It made her annoyed and she tightened her lips. “I’ll head back to class now.”

Ceng Kai also noticed and said shyly, “You’re too famous. That is why they’re all curious.”

“…”

Gu Jingyan replied, “I’m not famous.”

“Of course you are. You’re just unaware of it. I’ll walk you there.”

If you find any
