Chapter 296: Chapter 296 It’s None of Your Business

But he really enjoyed the feeling of being trusted and relied upon, he lifted his hand and pinched Jiang Mianmian’s soft and puffy little face, so adorable.

Then, without waiting for her protest, he stood up, “That’s settled then, you go back to class, I’m leaving.”

“Okay, Brother Yu, goodbye.” Jiang Mianmian raised her little hand, somewhat reluctantly waving it.

“We will see each other again.” Yu Cheng also gave her a gesture that could be called a gentle smile, then turned and walked towards the school gate.

Seeing him about to leave, Zhaodi hurriedly chased after him, running and shouting loudly, “Big Brother Yu, where are you going? Wait for me.”

Yu Cheng heard Zhaodi calling him, but didn’t even turn his head.

Jiang Mianmian was not at all surprised, she watched as Zhaodi caught up to Yu Cheng at the speed of a hundred meter sprint, reaching out to grab his hand.

Yu Cheng, however, dodged as if he had eyes on the back of his head.

Zhaodi grabbed at nothing, not feeling embarrassed, but asked eagerly with her face full of urgency, “Big Brother Yu, where are you off to? When are you coming to my house for a visit? My grandma will make you something delicious, how long can you stay this time?”

She asked a barrage of questions without pausing for a breath, only to receive a cold and distant reply from Yu Cheng, “It doesn’t concern you.”

Then he quickened his steps, striding out of the school gate.

Zhaodi was intimidated by the coldness and impatience in his eyes, only capable of watching him walk away. His lean and frail figure looked somewhat desolate and pitiful.

If this were before, Jiang Mianmian would surely have said a few words of comfort, but considering she had been reborn and might even be older than herself, and above all, was trying to cling to power.

So she turned around and headed for the classroom. When Zhaodi saw this, she quickly caught up and asked, “Third Sister, where is Big Brother Yu going?”

“Brother Yu is going to visit his uncle on the farm. He’ll be returning to Capital City tonight.” Jiang Mianmian didn’t reveal too much about Yu Cheng’s private matters.

“I see.”

Zhaodi swallowed her regret and frustration, then feigned curiosity, “Third Sister, I saw Brother Yu gave you a gift just now, what is it? Can I see it?”

Jiang Mianmian hesitated for a moment and said, “It’s nothing much, just a trinket.”

She could tell that Zhaodi was deliberately trying to ingratiate herself with Yu Cheng.

As someone who knew the direction of future events, Zhaodi’s behavior was surely one of trying to gain support.

From this, it was clear that Yu Cheng’s family background was indeed powerful, or that he himself would become quite formidable in the future.

Seeing that she was unwilling to talk more, Zhaodi didn’t press further, allowing Jiang Mianmian to heave a sigh of relief, “Alright, Zhaodi, classes are starting soon, I’m heading back to my class.”

“Okay, yeah, I should go back too.”

Zhaodi nodded obediently, but as soon as the two parted, her expression quickly darkened.

Although she knew that Brother Yu was treating San Ya differently because he owed her a life-saving debt, this obvious preferential treatment still left a bad taste in her mouth.

She wasn’t going to give up just like that. In this lifetime, she was determined to secure this powerful support!

Zhaodi’s sudden change in expression was caught by a male classmate sitting at the classroom door, giving the boy a shock, “Jiang Zhaodi, what’s wrong with you? You look like you’re about to devour someone.”

Zhaodi ignored him and walked straight past to sit at her own desk, lost in thought.

What could she do to quickly close the gap in her relationship with Big Brother Yu?

Big Brother Yu was in Capital City, she had no chance of seeing him at all. He had finally come back this time, yet they barely exchanged a few words.

At this rate, when would she be able to occupy an important place in his heart?
