Chapter 7: Even the Most Annoying Can Be Forgiven for Their LooksThe girl's delicate, beautiful face was streaked with tears, her eyes glistening like lakes fallen from the sky.Feng Xiao had been indifferent at first, looking forward to seeing Yan Yan return in a dejected state. But when she actually started crying… he found himself at a loss.He hadn't intended to meddle. Though it would only take a word from him for Yan Yan to be brought back to the capital.Back then, even though the old master still held some sentiment and didn't intervene, it was because he knew that with Yan Yan's temperament, staying in the capital would only lead to constant trouble and more problems.The best solution was to let her learn her lesson here. Only then could she grow.Feng Xiao also thought this little girl was too willful—quick to anger, always thinking she was the center of the world, expecting everyone to yield to her.But she hadn't yet witnessed the true cruelty of this world. She needed to experience hardship to mature.Yet seeing her so aggrieved, tears falling like broken strings pattering to the ground, inexplicably tugged at his heart."You… really want to go back that badly?""Of course I do! Who would want to stay in a place like this?"She gritted her teeth, venting her anger: "I'm not like you, stuck here running this little junk stall, and with poor health to boot!"Yan Yan, eyes red, lashed out fiercely: "You won't live much longer, but I'm different!"Feng Xiao's gaze gradually turned cold.It seemed this girl still needed more lessons. She should stay here longer to witness more of the world's cruelty."Yes, you're right. How could someone as poor and short-lived as me compare to you?"Feng Xiao dismissed her coolly: "Please don't stay here then. My humble abode can't accommodate someone as grand as you.""You're kicking me out?! Fine, I'll leave! Who wants to stay here anyway!"Yan Yan stomped into the school wearing her expensive leather shoes bought from a high-end mall.Only after avoiding the live-stream cameras did she press her lips together.She had already said that much… Would it remind Feng Xiao to go to the hospital for another check-up? His current physical condition was truly on the brink, critically ill.Though it wouldn't cause immediate trouble, she estimated he was only in his twenties now. In a few more years, his bodily functions would decline sharply, and by then, it would be too late to treat…Who in this small county town had been slowly poisoning him with trace toxins?And it must have accumulated over time to build up such terrifying potency within his body, destroying his vitality.Perhaps only a Hua Tuo reincarnated could save him in this world, but if he went to the hospital again, there might still be a chance…When Yan Yan returned to the classroom, some students were reading, but more were sleeping with their heads on their desks.Seeing her enter, they simply ignored her, as if she had no connection to this class at all.Yan Yan couldn't be bothered either. She took out the latest model phone the original owner had bought and checked the latest stock market trends.According to her current simulations, recent fluctuations in the stock market couldn't support her earning enough money.Apart from the several hundred thousand spent on desks and chairs yesterday, the remaining amount had already been invested early in the futures market.In a short time, it had already doubled.She estimated the day's market fluctuations and continued her buying and selling operations.By the time the school bell rang, the balance in Yan Yuan's futures account had nearly increased tenfold.The market conditions were just like that for now—she could only work within these constraints. Once she had more capital in the future… manipulating the entire market wouldn't be a problem.But for now, that was still out of reach. Although she could hack into others' accounts and temporarily use their money, returning it later, she had always disdained such methods.…The live stream of Yan Yuan crying bitterly at the school gate today caused quite a stir within the circle of wealthy second-generation heirs in the capital.Initially, everyone had tuned in to mock her, but as they watched…Yan Yuan's weeping appeared so fragile and helpless, like a rose battered by a downpour, its vibrant petals adorned with raindrops, making it even more enchanting…Someone, under anonymity, was the first to comment in the live stream: [Yan Yuan’s face is actually quite pretty…][Damn, I was thinking the same. I never noticed how beautiful she was before?][Seeing her cry like this is kind of heartbreaking. Maybe we should go easier on her. She’s already been sent to such a remote place—that’s miserable enough.]Upon learning that Yan Yuan had managed to make people forgive her actions with just a few tears, Cheng Qi, who started the live stream, was furious and lashed out in the chat:[Have you all forgotten how Yan Yuan bullied Lin'er? No more anonymity in the live stream from now on! Be careful—if the Yan family finds out you’re supporting Yan Yuan, you’ll regret it!]Some were displeased with Cheng Qi.But knowing she was Yan Lin'er's closest friend, they couldn't say anything.Among the major families in the capital, the Yan family stood at the very top, and almost no one dared to provoke their people.After all, the Yan family had the backing of the Feng family. Although it was said that the Feng family only occasionally intervened in the Yan family's affairs, having such a powerful supporter…was enough to grant the Yan family an unrivaled position in the capital. Even Cheng Qi, by Yan Lin'er's side, could act more arrogantly, relying on that influence.Only when the live stream fell silent did Cheng Qi feel somewhat satisfied. She immediately ordered her father’s secretary: "Go and do something for me. Make sure Yan Yuan doesn’t have it too easy in Yunshan County!"In Yunshan County, the first class in the afternoon was physics.The physics teacher, Ren Fei, dressed in a style more fashionable than most in this small county, walked into the classroom with his hair slicked back, head held high.His tone was somewhat sarcastic: "Well, your class really is different from the others."Many students from other classes had come to observe Class One throughout the day, naturally envious of their privileges.Unfortunately, their classes didn’t have a transfer student like Yan Yuan, who was so generous, so they couldn’t experience the joy of massage chairs.Ren Fei tossed his lesson plan onto the desk, looking down with pity. "It’s just a shame your grades don’t match your comforts. Do you even know what scores you got on last semester’s final exams?""With results like these, maybe you should just go work instead! Another year of studying would just be a waste of time…"Halfway through his criticism, Ren Fei fixed his gaze on Yan Yuan."You transferred here from a big city, right? Your learning progress must be different from ours here, and the material is probably more complex…"Ren Fei commanded forcefully, "I'll give you a problem to solve up here. Let me see how capable you big-city students are and what level you've reached."Yan Yuan immediately sensed his ill-intentioned attitude.
