The Overnight Chosen Wife: Darling, Kiss Me Deeper

Chapter 57 - Fond of digging her own graves

"I suddenly remembered what Li Lanni said before. Something about acing the exam... I can't wait to see the results!" The girl who had screeched earlier was at it again.

Li Lanni cringed when she heard that statement. Really now, who says such a thing right before an exam? 

She was too naive to have thought that they had forgotten all about it. 

As expected, it drew all the attention right back to her. She really wanted to drop dead. Was she so fond of digging her own graves?

The exam started soon. It was painting and they were all done in a short while. Because it was a test of speed and creativity, they were only given 100 minutes. 

At the end of it, some of them had to hand in incomplete paintings. 

Luckily, Li Lanni had managed to complete hers although it was not as perfect as she wanted. 

Cheng Yu, on the other hand, didn't feel the pressure at all. Painting was her forte and she could do it even if she was given 50 minutes, much more 100. 

"Do you want to grab a snack and keep your mind off the exam?" Cheng Yu offered as she tugged at Li Lanni's arm. 

"Sure. Let's..." 

The piercing sound of high heels against the floor interrupted, followed by a waft of sweet perfume scent as a figure slotted itself beside Li Lanni and perfectly sandwiched her between herself and Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu was instantly displeased while Li Lanni was curious, taking a glance at the red-haired girl. 

"Hello, it's been long." The girl said in a sweet voice that Li Lanni somehow found familiar. 

She didn't remember the girl, though, so she simply nodded politely. 

The red haired girl rested her chin in her hand, sneaking a glance at the riled up Cheng Yu and said to Li Lanni, "I heard a dessert shop opened near the school. Care to grab a bite?" 

Li Lanni felt strange. This girl obviously walked in with Ji Feifei earlier. Why was she trying to get close to her now? Was she using the same old and extremely worn out trick of pretending to be a friend to hide malice? Decisively, she rejected, "My friend and I are going out together." 

Ruby didn't look fazed. "We can all go together. Right, Xiao Yu?" 

Cheng Yu's face darkened. For a reason, Li Lanni felt that these two were like fire and ice. Hence she politely rejected Ruby once again, "We may have some... um, private matters to talk about." 

This time, the girl didn't insist. She mumbled something about it being Li Lanni's loss before flipping a wave of her hair to her back and walking off. 

"Oh, Ruby, you look so gorgeous today!"

"Ruby is always beautiful, every other day. It's as expected of the beauty queen." Some girls started fawning over Ruby as soon as she stood to leave. Even the guys wanted to speak to her. They just didn't dare to. 

Their attitude made Li Lanni wonder why exactly she had gone over to her. Was she reakky seeking trouble on Ji Feifei's behalf? 

"Who exactly is she?" The curiosity was killing Li Lanni. 

"The campus belle." Cheng Yu said expressionlessly. "In reality, I think you are way more beautiful than her but she is more popular so she became the campus belle." 

"What's up with the two of you?" She asked Cheng Yu, ignoring the 'beauty queen' rant.  

Cheng Yu didn't want to hide anything from Li Lanni even though she was unhappy so she said, "We were friends in middle school and high school. Actually, we were all friends: You, Ruby, Ji Feifei and I." 

Li Lanni raised her eyebrow. She was friends with Ruby? No wonder she found her familiar. 

Cheng Yu continued, "In high school, you and Ji Feifei became roommates and your friendship grew stronger. For the same reason, Ruby and I became best friends. 

But I don't know how or why it happened... it wasn't long before the three of you started shutting me out." 

Li Lanni: "..." did she need to ask? It had to be thanks to Ji Feifei's manipulation. Her expression was hard to read. Just how long exactly  had that girl been a schemer? Since she was in her mother's w.o.m.b? 

"Ruby and I remained lukewarm for a while since we were roommates. But then... I unexpectedly stumbled upon something shocking about Ruby.... It's a secret she doesn't know herself. But when I told her about it, well, you can imagine what happened." 

From her tone, Ruby must have thought she was lying. It seemed like they also fought because of this reason....

Since she had mentioned that it was a secret, Li Lanni didn't want to probe further. She was actually more interested in something else... 

"I think Ji Feifei let Ruby take over her role in bullying you. They are each other's shadow nowadays after all." Cheng Yu said, reading Li Lanni's mind. 

At this moment, Cheng Yu recieved a new text message. 

She was so shocked that she almost broke her phone by dropping it! 

Li Lanni noticed her hange in expression. "Hey, do you still want to grab a snack or what? Also, what's with that face? You look like you have seen a ghost!" 

Cheng Yu trembled, expressing that she would rather see a ghost. 

On the screen on her phone lay the following content. 

[V: Something's wrong with Lanni's car! Don't let her take it home.] 

Tch. She knew it! Ji Feifei wouldn't give up so easily. She couldn't use Li Lanni anymore... it was not surprising that she was trying to kill her. 

They would have a music exam in less than an hour. After that, they wouldn't have any more exams today. 

The sticky part was that Li Lanni didn't like lingering in school unless she really had something to do but since she had started having home-schooling lessons after school, she would definitely rush home. There was not enough time to stop her... 

Wait, how would she even stop her? Tell her that she had recieved a warning message from a stalker?!
