Chapter 5: They're Not StupidJingdu."Holy shit!!"The sudden outburst directly interrupted the teacher's lecture on the podium, who couldn't help but throw a piece of chalk over. "Wang Chenxi, what are you yelling about? I've already given you enough face!""It's nothing, nothing. Please continue with the lesson, don't mind us…"A group led by Wang Chenxi in the back row quickly started discussing the live stream they had just seen."Lin Ru, did you see that? Is Yan Yan insane??""A single set of these desks we use costs five figures, and she spent a full 500,000 to replace everyone's desks and chairs. Does she have so much money she doesn't know where to spend it?"Lin Ru curled her lip. "Maybe her dad gave her the money when she left… No, I have to tell Cheng Qi. Her dad absolutely cannot give her any more money, otherwise how are we supposed to watch her make a fool of herself?""Right, right, tell Cheng Qi quickly!"Lin Ru stopped applying her nail polish and called Cheng Qi right there in class."Qiqi, did you see the live stream? That little bitch Yan Yan actually still has so much money. Doesn't that ruin our plan to see her humiliated?"Cheng Qi's tone was vicious. "I know. I won't let her live so comfortably!"Yan Lin'er waited until after class to call Cheng Qi back, her voice soft and gentle. "Qiqi, what did you need from me?""Lin'er, that little bitch Yan Yan is actually using money to win people over now. You can't let her succeed… She dared to bully you, so she has to pay the price!"Yan Lin'er hesitated slightly. "Yan Yan has already been sent so far away. Do we still need to bother with her?""No, have you forgotten how Yan Yan hurt you? You can't be soft-hearted! If you don't want to do it, I'll go talk to Grandpa Yan for you!"After some half-hearted refusals, Yan Lin'er let Cheng Qi proceed on her own. She smiled indifferently, thinking that from now on, Yan Yan's life or death had nothing to do with her…At Yunshan County High School, the students of Class 1, Grade 12 watched dumbfounded as delivery workers carried out all the old, dilapidated, and rickety desks and chairs from their classroom.Then, brand-new desks with high-quality matte black finishes and massage functions were installed.Yan Yan said lightly, "But there aren't suitable electrical lines in the classroom right now. I've already spoken to the principal. I'll cover all the costs. This weekend, we'll replace the entire school's electrical wiring, and I'll also pay for all of Class 1's electricity usage myself."The school naturally welcomed Yan Yan's generous offer with open arms. Since the school didn't have to pay a cent, they were happy to let her upgrade the electrical system however she wanted.Yan Yan crossed her arms, looking at them proudly. "Do any of you have any other objections?"It wasn't as if there were no wealthy people in this county town. For example, the chubby Wang Fu, who had something of a leader's aura in the class.His family ran a business, and he usually had a decent allowance, but he could never afford to throw money around like this.Especially after some of them secretly looked up online how much these desks and chairs cost… it was even more unbelievable.As for Yan Yan's question about whether they had any other objections…Choosing to sit on chairs that could fall apart at any moment instead of these high-tech massage seats?They weren't that noble. Unless they were out of their minds, they absolutely wouldn't refuse.Of course, there were still those who couldn't help but mutter under their breath, "So what if you have a few stinking coins? Do you think swapping out all the desks and chairs will make us bow and scrape in gratitude?"Yan Yan immediately sneered, "Don't like it? Then take your set and move it out. It'll save me some money."She was outrageously arrogant, leaving no room for courtesy.The person thought it over—why make things difficult for themselves when they could just enjoy the benefits?—and fell silent.Feng Xiao had already left after overseeing the delivery of the new desks and chairs. Last night, Yan Yan had suddenly contacted him on a whim, offering him a fee for his help.Yan Yan felt he was pitiable—setting up a stall outside the school despite his poor health—so she generously gave him a chance to earn some money…Having wasted the morning self-study time, Old Man Li wanted to say something but couldn't quite bring himself to, especially since Yan Yan had also placed a massage chair on the teacher's desk.He had also heard that a new set had been delivered to his office… This student really knew how to handle things… So he simply turned a blind eye to Yan Yan's actions.As for the school, located in such a remote area that even inspectors rarely visited, it received little attention on a daily basis. Thus, no one really cared how much she stirred things up.With everything settled, Yan Yan sat back down beside Li Yuanyuan. When no one was paying attention, she whispered, "Thanks for today.""It's… it's nothing…" Li Yuanyuan's voice was as faint as a mosquito's hum. Seeing how focused she was in class, Yan Yan decided not to bother her further.On the first day, most of the lessons revolved around reviewing the exam papers distributed at the end of the semester. None of the teachers paid excessive attention to Yan Yan, the transfer student, as if her arrival didn't matter much.Yan Yan knew this was because the Yan family had warned the school in advance not to give her any special treatment—to treat her like any ordinary student.Receiving a blank exam paper, Yan Yan skimmed through the questions and began answering them. Since no teacher called on her, she worked straight through until the lunch break.The entire county was small, and the school buildings and cafeteria were shabby and unimpressive. Yan Yan had no intention of visiting either, nor did she want to gather a group of friends. Instead, she left the school alone, hoping to find a decent restaurant to eat at.Last night, she had only snacked on some random items bought from the supermarket.The original host couldn't cook, and while Yan Yan could, she was too lazy to bother, not wanting to waste time on such trivial matters."Hey, you! What are you having for lunch?"Just outside the school gate, Yan Yan spotted Feng Xiao lying beside his makeshift stall.He had set up a large sunshade and was leisurely dozing off, looking quite relaxed.Yan Yan walked over and woke him up, ignoring the glances from passing girls directed at both Feng Xiao and herself."Lead the way. Find me a good restaurant to eat at—preferably a five-star one."Feng Xiao opened his eyes to see a young girl backlit by the sun, her delicate brows furrowed as she issued her command.The sunlight was still glaring, but the sharp clarity in her phoenix eyes was even more striking than the rays.He lazily lifted his eyelids. "Little princess, wanting to find a five-star hotel in this county is nothing but a pipe dream."Yan Yan caught the mocking tone in Feng Xiao's "little princess" remark but ignored it, saying only, "But I need to eat lunch, and I'm already hungry."Feng Xiao wanted to ask this girl, who always kicked the ladder away after climbing it, what it had to do with him.But when his gaze fell on her slightly pouted, rosy lips, some words were swallowed back."I made this meal myself, planning to eat it later. Do you want some?"Feng Xiao took out a clean, simple lunchbox: "If not, you're on your own."Wanwan: I heard someone wants to make me poor.
