Space and Rebirth: The Favored Genius Doctor and Businesswoman

Chapter 82 – Acting Like a Good Kid (装巧卖乖)

Qiao Hongye had a standard face that looked as if it belonged to a daughter of a humble family. Her eyebrows were gentle, unlike those sharp and thick eyebrows of Jing Yunzhao. She was not as tall as Jing Yunzhao and looked plumper than Jing Yunzhao but was still of an average size. Honestly speaking, she looked delicate and lovable.

It could be said that the reason why Qiao Hongye was so well-known in school was not because of her grades as the school’s number two and also not because of her outstanding looks, but because of her aura.

When she was quiet, she was gentle and pleasant. When she was happy, she was coy and cute. When she was mistreated, she was looked pitiful. She could always flirt with just a single look. She, of course, never lost her calm in front of others.

Of course, whenever Jing Yunzhao was alone with Qiao Hongye, Qiao Hongye’s elegant facade would be broken. Jing Yunzhao could never understand why this girl who had grown up with her would hate her so much.

She had never fought for any of the Qiao family’s things with Qiao Hongye.

Currently, the light in Qiao Hong’s eyes was soft. After she pulled Jing Yunzhao aside, she had on a scared and cautious expression, as if Jing Yunzhao was bullying her.

“You need something?” Jing Yunzhao’s eyes were cold. It was just impossible for her to be warm towards Qiao Hongye.

Qiao Hongye bit her lip. “It’s really nothing... I just thought it was weird how jiejie came to school with Gan Jinchen...”

She had seen Jing Yunzhao walking closely [1] with Su Chu before. She already had trouble understanding it back then. She did not know if Jing Yunzhao was trying to get with Gan Jinchen through that stupid girl Su Chu, or not.

[1](The raws wrote “走得近” which translates to “walking closely.” It can mean that they’re literally walking closely together (which they did before) but can also mean that they’re getting along very closely. I think it’s leaning more towards the latter in this case.)

Jing Yunzhao found it laughable and reached out to pull her arm back: “Whoever I go to school with is none of your business, right?”

This world just has this many weird people.

Embarrassment flashed through Qiao Hongye’s face but she then pouted, “Jie, aren’t I just worried about you? Are you two dating? [2] I heard that Gan Jinchen’s father is a doctor and his mother is a businesswoman. Isn’t his family pretty well o??”

[2] (The raws had “谈恋爱了” which can be translated to “in love.” I used “dating” because Qiao Hongye’s implying that Jing Yunzhao and Gan are both together.)

The main points were that Gan Jinchen was good-looking and also had good grades.

Qiao Hongye and Gan Jinchen naturally knew one another. There were only two people amongst the first years that were chosen to be part of the Student Union, and those two were Qiao Hongye and Gan Jinchen.

It was early in the morning. There was also tra?c outside of the classroom’s door. Qiao Hongye’s voice was pleasing to the ear, so it naturally attracted the attention of others. After hearing what she had said, many girls stopped in their tracks and came to join in on the commotion.

“Jing Yunzhao, you’re dating Gan Jinchen?! Really?” A girl asked.

Jing Yunzhao’s face darkened.

“Qiao Hongye, is your skull full of mud? I only happened to bump into Su Chu and Gan Jinchen on the way to school, but how come it turned into dating when it went through your mouth?” Jing Yunzhao said coldly.

Yet, Qiao Hongye looked as if she didn’t care, as if Jing Yunzhao’s words were a joke.

“Aya, Jie-jie, it’s all my fault that my mouth slipped. Sorry! Okay, okay, I won’t say anything anymore,” Qiao Hongye purposely squinted her eyes.

After this was said, it was as if what she had said was the truth.

A situation like this was not a first. Acting like a good kid was something that Qiao Hongye was a pro at.

Suddenly, numerous images flashed through Jing Yunzhao’s mind. Her tightly closed lips slowly curved into a sco?. Looking at the hateful girl before her, she raised her hand and slapped her!

A ‘PA’ sound resounded, stunned the surrounding people.

Qiao Hongye was also dumbfounded. Jing Yunzhao actually dared to hit her?

What right does she have to hit her? None! She was only a bastard, a mere bastard raised in her own house.
