Cheng Ling only saw the message from Lu Qi after the bell at the end of the last class.

[ Cheng Ling: No need. I have an appointment with Ding Yu tonight to review the host’s scripts. ]

However, by the time Lu Qi received this message, he was already waiting outside the school.

He frowned when he saw the message from Cheng Ling.

It was Ding Yu again. Why was this kid lingering around?

Lu Qi did not realize that his emotions were completely out of control. In layman’s terms, he was jealous.

However, Lu Qi would not admit this.

Although he did not admit it in his heart, his actions were very honest. He typed in the Chat Box: [ I’m already outside the school. If you don’t mind, can I go in and take a look? ]

After receiving Lu Qi’s WeChat message, Cheng Ling quickly got up and left the classroom. She leaned against the railing and looked down.

Instantly she saw a familiar car park at the school gate.

Ding Yu also chased after her. “What’s the matter? Didn’t we agree to review the host’s script? Why are you running away?”

Cheng Ling didn’t answer. She lowered her head and replied: [ Sure, you may come in. ]

Then, Cheng Ling saw Lu Qi get out of the car.

The weather was gradually getting hotter. By the end of May and the beginning of June, he could already wear short-sleeved shirts.

Lu Qi’s body was much stronger than before. There were obvious muscle lines on his arms. He did not look strong, but they contained strength.

He was wearing a black T-shirt and a pair of simple white pants. It was obviously a very simple combination, but it made people unable to take their eyes off it.

Even Ding Yu could notice this extraordinary man at a glance.

“Isn’t this the second young master of the Lu family? Why is he here? Is he looking for you?”

Cheng Ling nodded.

Ding Yu instantly felt uncomfortable.

“Didn’t you tell him that you’re going to be with me tonight to review the host’s scripts?”

Cheng Ling didn’t notice the jealousy between the two men. “I did, but he said that he was already at the school gate, so I asked him to come in and wait for me.”

Lu Qi walked with big strides and soon, Cheng Ling no longer could see Lu Qi in her line of sight.

“Let’s go back to class.”

The students in Class 10 had never been active learners. They ran away immediately after school. So now there were only two of them in class.

When Lu Qi arrived at the entrance of their class, he saw Ding Yu and Cheng Ling standing very close to each other. It seemed that Cheng Ling was teaching Ding Yu an English word.

From Lu Qi’s point of view, their heads were almost touching.

“I’m not disturbing you, am I?” Lu Qi asked.

Cheng Ling raised her head and said, “No, we’re just reviewing the host’s scripts for the school’s anniversary celebration.”

“100th anniversary?”

Cheng Ling said, “Yeah, you heard about it, too?”

“Your principal invited us, too.”

“But you and Lu Xiu are so busy, you two definitely won’t come, right?”

Lu Qi walked into the classroom and said, “If you’re the school’s anniversary host, then we should come.”

Hearing Lu Qi’s words, Cheng Ling’s face suddenly turned red.

Did Lu Qi mean that he would be here for her?

“This is the young master of the Ding family, right? We meet again.”

Ding Yu was a young man. He was arrogant and had a good impression of Cheng Ling. Cheng Ling might not know this, but as a man, he could clearly feel the undercurrents between him and Lu Qi. The two of them were definitely rivals in love.

“Yes, I’m Ding Yu. Cheng Ling and I will be the English hosts for the school’s anniversary celebration. So we may have to stay for the next few days to review the scripts.”

Cheng Ling looked at Ding Yu. “Is that so? I thought it’s only today.”

“If we can’t finish it today, we’ll have to do it for a few more days. Have you forgotten what the teacher from the Department of Culture and Recreation said? She wants us to be well prepared.”

Cheng Ling shrugged. “Oh.”

Lu Qi smiled, taking all of Ding Yu’s thoughts seriously.

“What were you guys doing just now? I thought I heard you guys reading some English words.”

Cheng Ling nodded. “Yes, there are some sentences that we need to read together. They need to be paired with a rhythm. There are also many new words that we haven’t come across before.”

“Which one? Let’s see if I can help.”

Lu Qi moved closer and just happened to cut off Ding Yu and Cheng Ling.

Ding Yu was forced to sit a little to the side. Cheng Ling didn’t notice Lu Qi’s intention, so she naturally moved to the side as well, letting Lu Qi stand comfortably.

“This one.”

Cheng Ling’s slender fingers pointed at the English word.

“We were trying to pronounce it just now..”
