<h4>Chapter 15: This is a song of an old friend of mine...</h4>


    "I...I didn''t..."


    An Nuonuo quickly shook her head in denial.


    Her ears were so red they looked as if they were about to bleed.


    The more Jiang Xu saw her shy demeanor, the more he wanted to tease her.


    But he held back.


    The girl was not used to being teased, so he needed to gradually improve her resilience...


    During ss, Jiang Xu was very serious and took great care in tutoring Nuonuo.


    Anything she didn''t understand, he patiently exined over and over again.


    After a few days of hard work, Jiang Xu hadpletely mastered the entire Senior Two curriculum.


    He had already mastered about a fifth of the Senior Three curriculum.


    If he maintained this pace, he could master the entire Senior Three curriculum before the end of Senior Two.


    So, while the two of them were studying sincerely on one side,


    On the other hand, Li Honghong was quietly exaggerating and gossiping about what had happened yesterday to Zhou Qingyue.


    "Yesterday I saw them secretly meeting.


    I felt indignant on your behalf, so I went up and confronted them.


    I didn''t expect Jiang Xu to hit me and kick me - he was outrageously overbearing!


    He is really a scum, all his past expressions of deep affection for you were just an act.


    And his taste is terrible, too; you''re infinitely better than An Nuonuo.


    I can''t believe Jiang Xu is with someone like that, he must be blind."


    Zhou Qingyue nearly snapped the pen in her hand.


    Li Honghong continued, "I think you should take revenge!"


    "How should I get revenge?" Zhou Qingyue asked subconsciously.


    Li Honghong replied, "Find someone better than him, pretend you''re dating.


    Make him feel the pain of losing you.


    Men are all the same, once they realize they''re about to lose something, theirpetitive instincts are aroused.


    At that point, he''ll be just like before and always be around you.


    When that dayes, just humiliating him severely will be retribution enough for me!"


    Zhou Qingyue: "But there aren''t any boys in our school who have academics as good as his."


    "You''re silly, ''excellence'' isn''t determined by grades alone, there are other aspects as well.


    Like being good at sports, being handsome,ing from a rich family, or being good at singing.


    You can consider Cheng Fei; he ranks second in our ss academically.


    He has great singing skills and is quite handsome.


    I think he probably likes you too.


    With just a beckoning, I''m sure he''lle running."


    Zhou Qingyue thought Li Honghong''s suggestion made sense.


    She couldn''t help but nce back at Jiang Xu.


    She thought, "I''ll show you, I have plenty of suitors!


    You''ll regret this!"


    After ss.


    Zhou Qingyue took her book and went to find Cheng Fei.


    "Cheng Fei, I don''t know how to do this problem, could you exin it to me?"


    Cheng Fei was taken aback.


    Only to see Zhou Qingyue looking at him shyly.


    His heart instantly warmed.


    He thought, could this be the arrival of spring for me?


    Zhou Qingyue purposely moved closer.


    Several strands of her hair gently grazed Cheng Fei''s arm.


    It felt as if a stone had been thrown into his heart, causing waves of ripples.


    Zhou Qingyue bit her lip gently, "Cheng Fei, you''re so amazing."


    Cheng Fei blushed and scratched his head, "Not really, Jiang Xu is much better than me."


    "No, he''s not as smart as you. Temporary good grades don''t mean it willst forever.


    I believe in the future you would definitely be enrolled in a better university than him. I''m counting on you."


    Cheng Fei instantly felt invigorated.


    Zhou Qingyue then said, "Next ss is music. Could you sing a song for me?"


    Cheng Fei was the music representative.


    Before every ss, the teacher would have him sing a song.


    "Sure, no problem."


    Without hesitation, the extremely excited Cheng Fei agreed immediately.


    Zhou Qingyue then went back to her seat.


    She subconsciously looked over at Jiang Xu.


    Thinking he must be jealous after seeing how close she was to Cheng Fei earlier.


    But she was disappointed.


    Jiang Xu didn''t look in her direction at all.


    When ss ended, he was still exining some of the things Nuonuo didn''t understand in the ss.


    The feeling of helping others grow step by step, there is indeed a sense of aplishment.


    Zhou Qingyue was gnashing her teeth in frustration.


    She sat back in her seat with resentment.


    The bell rang for the next ss.


    The music teacher was a newly-graduated young woman with a nice personality.


    "Okay, as per usual, let''s start with a song from Cheng Fei."


    The entire ss pped their hands.


    Cheng Fei stood up, looked at Zhou Qingyue, and said, "Well, today I''ll sing "Serious Snow" for everyone... dedicated to Zhou Qingyue."


    "Wow!"


    The entire ss let out exaggerated exmations.


    All eyes were on Zhou Qingyue.


    Zhou Qingyue straightened her back subconsciously.


    Then looked at Jiang Xu, raising her eyebrows in a challenging manner.


    That look was saying.


    See this? I have many admirers. You''ll regret this!


    Jiang Xu cracked a smile.


    At this point, he really wanted to thank Cheng Fei.


    Brother, you''re too loyal, you''ve drawn the fire away from me.


    He''d been annoyed with Zhou Qingyue for a long time.


    Being able to divert Zhou Qingyue''s attention, so she wouldn''t bother him in future,


    It was like heaven-sent manna.


    Indeed, Cheng Fei''s singing was outstanding.


    He sang the song with a lot of emotion.


    After he finished, the ss responded with enthusiastic apuse.


    Zhou Qingyue nced smugly at Jiang Xu.


    Jiang Xupletely ignored her.


    In his past life, he had already suffered enough because of this woman.


    In this life, looking at her one more time was considered bad luck for Jiang Xu.


    Zhou Qingyue thought, "Humph, still pretending to be indifferent? You''re probably worried sick."


    The music teacher said, "Thank you, Cheng Fei.


    I have a slight cold today and my throat is a little sore. I won''t be teaching the ss.


    If any of you wants to sing, feel free to do so."


    The teacher was quite liberal.


    For something like a public confession in ss, she wouldn''t get angry or make a fuss.


    "Jiang Xu, why don''t you sing a song for us?" Li Honghong suddenly said.


    She knew that Jiang Xu could sing.


    Butpared to Cheng Fei, he was far from being as good.


    She wanted to see Jiang Xu being overshadowed; that would be her revenge.


    Zhou Qingyue perked up.


    "This woman..." Jiang Xu''s eyes narrowed, was she looking for trouble again?


    The music teacher also said, "That would be good, Jiang, your singing skills are not bad, can you sing a song for us?"


    Jiang Xu initially didn''t want to sing.


    But since even the music teacher had spoken, it was hard to decline.


    So he stood up and walked to the podium.


    Li Honghong sneered inwardly, "Wait and see how I belittle you!"


    Nuonuo gazed unblinkingly at Jiang Xu.


    The girl was keen to hear what song Jiang Xu was going to sing.


    "Ahem," Jiang Xu cleared his throat. "This song is an old friend''s.


    The name of this song is..."
