Chapter 144: Was She Here to Declare War?

"The bubble tea is here." As soon as Qin Zhaowen walked in carrying a plastic bag of bubble tea, he said to them with a smile.

"I'm so exhausted, give me one right now to see if it can wake me up!" Ye Wuqi immediately snatched a cup of blueberry bubble tea and stabbed the straw into it.

He instantly felt refreshed and energized.

Qin Zhaowen handed out a cup and a straw to Ye Luoluo and the others, then took out another cup for himself, inserted the straw, and passed it to his younger brother with a gentle voice: "Xiaoyu, here you go."

Qin Zhaoyu was displeased. He slapped his hands against the desk like a spoiled child and yelled at his older brother, "I don't want bubble tea! I want cola! Cola!"

"They just ran out of cola, I couldn't buy any. Just make do with this for today, and I'll definitely get you some cola tomorrow, okay?" Facing this twin brother of his, Qin Zhaowen had the patience of a saint, treating him almost like a son.

Qin Zhaoyu: "Then give me another five yuan."

Qin Zhaowen handed it over immediately.

Only then did Qin Zhaoyu reluctantly take the bubble tea and bite on the straw.

Ye Luo ignored Qin Zhaoyu and Qin Zhaowen. While sipping her bubble tea and taking advantage of the fact that her ancestor was still conscious, she quickly went over a few more math problems with him.

Knowing that this couldn't be rushed, she saw that her ancestor had finished his bubble tea and decided to let him take a proper afternoon nap.

Just at that moment, the classroom door was gently knocked on.

Ye Luo heard the sound and looked toward the entrance, seeing Shen Jing standing at the front door with her smiling eyes, looking somewhat dazed and remarkably petite.

"Ye Luo." The moment Shen Jing saw her look over, she began waving continuously, looking exceptionally happy.

It was obvious she was looking for her.

Ye Luo stood up and walked toward Shen Jing.

The moment Yan Baba saw Shen Jing coming to find Ye Luo, he instantly grew excited and nudged Ye Wuqi's shoulder with his own: "Brother Qi, Brother Qi, do you think top student Shen is here to declare war?"

Before Ye Wuqi could speak, Yan Baba grew even more excited: "A battle between the top student and the supreme prodigy is bound to be thrilling!"

Ye Wuqi playfully slapped the back of Yan Baba's head: "Look at that happy expression of hers. Does she look like she's here to declare war?"

By this time, Ye Luo had already walked up to Shen Jing.

Shen Jing immediately thrust a cutely packaged apple toward Ye Luo, her eyes curving into bright smiles: "This apple is for you."

Ye Luo didn't take it, only asking calmly, "Why are you giving it to me?"

"Because you gave me room for improvement! I'm finally no longer in first place, hehe." Shen Jing's eyes curved like crescent moons.

Cute as she was, she looked even more dazed, with a touch of silliness.

For some inexplicable reason, Ye Luo found that she couldn't bring herself to dislike Shen Jing at all.

"I want to thank you!" Shen Jing pushed the apple a bit closer. Seeing that Ye Luo still hadn't taken it, she looked somewhat distressed, lowering her small head with a nearly tearful, wilted expression: "Except for my baby, I've never given anything to anyone else. You're not going to reject it, are you..."

Before Ye Luo could speak, she looked even closer to tears, dropping her head lower still, looking thoroughly aggrieved: "I only have two apples, one for you and one for my baby. Why won't you take it..."

Without a word, Ye Luo simply took the apple.

Shen Jing's expression brightened instantly. She lifted her small head, her eyes curving into sweet crescents once more as she told her, "Ye Luo, you're such a nice person."

"How am I a nice person?" Ye Luo was genuinely baffled as to why she would suddenly say that.

"You accepted my apple!" Shen Jing declared as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Ye Luo: "..."
