Chapter 750: Going Back to School for Lessons
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After dinner, Tao sent her back to Lan Feng Institute. She had been absent from school for two weeks because of her injury. It was time she returned to school and continue with revision.
The media had already widely reported about her abduction and being an influential figure herself, everyone cast their attention on her as soon as she stepped inside the institute.
“Look, Wen Xinya is here.”
Someone gasped in shock and everyone else turned to look at Wen Xinya.
Carrying her backpack, Wen Xinya entered to see that everyone seemed to be staring at her like she was a monkey in the zoo. All eyes were on her ever since she stepped into the institute.
“It really is her! Seems like she’s already recovered.”
“Yeah, she seems to be rather energized and radiant. She’s definitely alright.”
“We’re already counting down to the final year examination and everyone is seizing every second to study. We all wish that we can use the time that we spend on eating and going to the loo to revise more. She took such a long break to recover. I wonder if she can catch up.”
“She should be able to! After all, she has always been doing well in school and she often takes note of the important information. There shouldn’t be any problems if she works hard enough.”
“I find it a little iffy. The final year examinations are just around the corner and she missed two whole weeks of revision, not two days. Don’t forget what happened to the Wen Family lately. Her father was involved in a scandal because of his illicit affair and became a laughing stock. As the heiress of the Wen Family, how could she not be affected...”
“You guys are right. As his daughter, she’d definitely be affected. How could she possibly focus on revising? Ah... I find her rather pitiful too.”
“Don’t be silly, she’s the mighty Miss Wen. There’s nothing pitiful about her.”
“I sympathize with her too. She lost her mother since birth and led a tough life on her own for fifteen years. She went through a hard time reuniting with her family and yet, her evil stepmother and stepsister plotted against her. The Wen Family’s adoptive daughter often gets in her way too. She finally made it to eighteen. Yet... she got kidnapped. So many catastrophic events are popping up in her life one after another. Now, her father is embroiled in such a scandal...”
“There was peace in the Wen Family before she returned. I reckon her birth characters must have clashed with the Wen Family. She jinxed her own mother and wreaked havoc in the Wen Family...”
“We’re already in the modern era and you still believe in such superstitions!”
“Actually, I think he makes sense. Think about it! There’s bound to be something detestable about a pitiful person. She’s meant to be a jinx. She’s going to jinx her parents and her siblings... Anyway, whoever bumps into her is going to suffer bad luck.”
Wen Xinya stopped in her tracks, shocked to hear such comments about herself. She walked towards them and questioned, “Are you talking about me?”
Anyone would feel embarrassed to be caught gossiping about others. The girls immediately turned to look at Wen Xinya who stood elegantly with her back straight, exuding a noble elegance and confidence. Everyone instinctively took a step back, not daring to look her in the eye at all.
Oh dear! What a commanding aura!
Wen Xinya stared at the girls calmly without uttering a single word.
Unable to tolerate the situation, one of them stammered. “I didn’t say that... I... I only heard it from another student from Class 5 of Year 3.”
Jiang Yuqian and Xia Ruxue were from Class 5!
Wen Xinya nodded and turned around to leave.
Another girl walked towards her anxiously and said, “Um... I’m sorry. We didn’t gossip about you on purpose.”
Wen Xinya turned around to look at her. Noticing that she had turned red, Wen Xinya nodded calmly. The members of the upper-class society were particularly believing of superstitions and Xia Ruya loved harming others using reputations. She was merely making use of Jiang Yuqian and Xia Ruxue to spread the gossip about Wen Xinya.
However, that was the only trick Xia Ruya could resort to now.
But Wen Xinya was not in the least bit afraid.
Wen Xinya headed to the classroom and everyone shot her strange glances, perhaps because of the news regarding her abduction and Wen Haowen’s scandal. Of course... it was also partly because of the theory about her being a jinx.
The class president looked at Wen Xinya and said, “The teacher wants to see you.”
Wen Xinya thanked him calmly and turned around to make her way to the teacher’s office.
Wen Xinya was in Class 1 and the teacher-in-charge was Mr. Zhao, a balding man who was in his forties. He was rather nice and commanded the respect of everyone in Wen Xinya’s class, including herself.
The door was left ajar and Wen Xinya knocked on it gently before entering the office. “Mr. Zhao, I heard you wanted to see me.”
Mr. Zhao glanced at Wen Xinya and smiled amicably. “Xinya, how’s your health?”
Wen Xinya answered smilingly, “Thank you for your concern, Mr. Zhao. I’ve already completely recovered and I’ll be resuming lessons today.”
When she left, Mr. Zhao gathered a few other Year 3 teachers and some of Wen Xinya’s friends to visit her at the hospital.
Feeling heartened, Mr. Zhao said, “Good to hear! A lot of your schoolmates have been very concerned about you because you were hospitalized.”
Due to the fact that she was an influential figure, many of her juniors held her with great respect and admiration. Ever since she was hospitalized, lots of them had been asking about her condition.
Wen Xinya smiled and said nothing.
Mr. Zhao continued, “You were on medical leave for two weeks. Now that you’re back in school, you should focus on your academics and ease yourself into revision mode. Start preparing for the final year examinations.” He then continued, “I’ve heard about your family’s situation too. I believe you’re intelligent enough to know what’s the most important thing for you right now. Hence, I hope you won’t let those matters affect you.”
Wen Xinya was the most unique student that he had ever met, though she was not the smartest or the most talented. However, he greatly admired her for her drive and tenacity.
Extremely touched, Wen Xinya said, “I know, Mr. Zhao. I won’t let you down.”
Mr. Zhao grinned widely and retrieved a thick journal from the drawer before handing it to her. “These are the notes that you’ve missed out on in the past two weeks. Bring them home and revise them well. You may look for me to clarify any doubts that you may have.”
Wen Xinya was extremely touched as she grabbed the thick and heavy stack of notes. “Thank you, Mr. Zhao.”
Mr. Zhao waved and said, “Alright, if there’s nothing else, you may go back to the classroom to do your revision!”
Wen Xinya thanked him again before leaving the office. She could sense the malice from the rest of her schoolmates, as well as their sarcastic remarks. Although there were some who gloated over her misfortune, there were also those who were genuinely concerned about her.
