Chapter 11 If I Don’t Perform Well, I’ll Have to Go Home and Inherit Billions
“Qi Lin, why did you leave without saying goodbye just now?”
“Also, you left in such a hurry that you forgot to pay. Do you know I had to cover for you just now?”
Wang Cheng, having lost a significant amount of money, wasn’t in the mood to chat with his best friend. He hurried back to his classroom.
First, he glanced at Lan Yuxi’s seat. Seeing that his crush wasn’t there, helet out a sigh of relief.
He couldn’t let her see him being petty and calculating over trivial matters.
Afterward, Wang Cheng found Qi Lin and brought up what had happened earlier. From his tone, it was clear that Wang Cheng wasn’t willing to let the money slide and still hoped to get it back from Qi Lin.
If it were the Qi Lin from his previous life, he might have felt embarrassed and returned the money.
But now...
It had been intentional, so why would he return it to Wang Cheng?
“When I was having breakfast earlier, I suddenly thought of our class monitor, Lan Yuxi. She’s so beautiful, and I found myself wanting to get closer to her. That’s why I left without saying goodbye...”
“Hmm? Wang Cheng, why do you look so upset? Don’t tell me you’re interested in Lan Yuxi too?”
Qi Lin pretended to be surprised as he looked at Wang Cheng and deliberately asked.
In truth, Qi Lin had long known about Wang Cheng and Lan Yuxi’s relationship. The two had been classmates since middle school and later got into the same high school, ending up in the same class again.
Regardless of Qi Lin’s character, if he really had spent hundreds of yuan on Wang Cheng, while Wang Cheng now wanted to take back just over 40 yuan, it would indeed seem a bit petty.
Wang Cheng, being someone who cared about his image, felt his face burn as he noticed the strange looks from their classmates.
“What are you saying? I wasn’t asking for the money back. I was just letting you know.”
“We’re brothers, after all. No need to make distinctions between us.”
“Consider today my treat to you, Qi Lin. I still understand the principle of reciprocity.”
“And Xiaoshuai, no need to thank me either. That bowl of beef noodles and the Jiaozi were also a token of my brotherly affection.”
The money was gone, and there was no way to get it back. But Wang Cheng was clever, so he decided to make the most of it. He first admitted to treating them, then loudly proclaimed his generosity and care for his friends.
To anyone who didn’t know better, it would seem as if Wang Cheng was always treating his classmates to breakfast. And it worked. The strange looks from the classmates faded, and they all returned to their books. After all, it was a top-tier high school, where academic performance was the real competition.
“Qi Lin, the school-wide exam is coming up. You better work hard. Maybe you can move up from last place in the class and eventually get into a top university, right?”
Wang Cheng, still feeling bitter, tried to gain the upper hand with his words. On the surface, he seemed to be encouraging Qi Lin, but in reality, he was mocking him for being at the bottom of the class.
“Yeah, the exam is coming up, and I’m so nervous. My dad said that if I don’t get into a university, I’ll have to go home and inherit billions. It’s not like you, Wang Cheng, who will get into a prestigious university and earn tens of thousands in salary every month,” Qi Lin said with a sorrowful tone.
“Damn it!”
Hearing Qi Lin’s words, Wang Cheng felt a pang of frustration. This was too cruel. Everyone could dislike Qi Lin, but what he said was true.
Even if Qi Lin failed his exams, he would still inherit his family’s wealth and continue being a rich second-generation heir. Meanwhile, the rest of them, even if they got into prestigious universities, would only become corporate drones earning at most tens of thousands a month.@@@@
