After Differentiation, I Marked My Arch-nemesis - Chapter 84
It was 2:30 p.m. when Jiang Youli’s flight from Jiangcheng landed in the capital.
As soon as she got out of the Capital Airport, she took a taxi straight to Capital High School.
A little while later,
The taxi slowly came to a stop on the side of the road.
Jiang Youli got out of the taxi and looked up at the magnificent Capital High School. She was filled with emotions. She had never thought she would come to Capital High School. The last time she was here was for Christmas Eve last year. She would never forget the scene of her and Lu Yaoyi hugging in the snowy mist on Christmas Eve.
Last time, she came for Lu Yaoyi.
This time, she also came for Lu Yaoyi.
She stood and watched for a few seconds.
Then, as if she had made up her mind, she walked toward the school gate.
The Capital High School gate was closed.
As soon as Jiang Youli got to the school gate, she was stopped by the security guard who walked out of the guardhouse. “Hey, student, why aren’t you wearing your school uniform?”
“…”
In her desperation, Jiang Youli made up an excuse. “I forgot to wear it.”
The security guard didn’t say anything.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at the S-class Alpha girl in front of him, then said calmly, “Our school has a rule that students without a school uniform are not allowed to enter. You… aren’t a student of Capital High School, are you?”
Jiang Youli saw that the security guard’s eyes were suspicious, so she admitted it.
“Okay, you’re right, I’m not a student of Capital High School.”
“I’m here to find someone.”
The security guard laughed. “It’s good that you’re smart enough not to lie.”
There was only one S-class Alpha student in Capital High School, and she was a senior.
Everyone at Capital High School knew that S-class Alpha, so the security guard didn’t even have to guess to know that Jiang Youli’s rank had given her away. “Since you’re not a student of Capital High School, please leave. I won’t let you in to find anyone.”
Jiang Youli: “Can you make an exception?”
The security guard shook his head firmly. “Sorry, I can’t.”
Jiang Youli understood that it was the security guard’s job not to let outsiders into Capital High School. She didn’t plan to force her way in, and besides, the security guard was being nice to her.
She thought about it for a moment.
Then she walked to the side and called Lu Meishan. “Auntie Lu.”
“Dingding?”
Lu Meishan’s voice came through the phone.
Jiang Youli: “Auntie Lu…”
Lu Meishan: “Mhm?”
Jiang Youli: “Why did Lu Yaoyi suddenly transfer to Capital High School?”
Lu Meishan: “You know that Yaoyao transferred?”
Jiang Youli was slightly stunned.
Did Lu Yaoyi also tell Lu Meishan not to tell her? She lowered her eyes and said, “Mhm, I know.”
“Because something happened at the company here in the capital, I don’t know when I’ll have time to go back to Jiangcheng,” Lu Meishan’s voice was gentle and unhurried as she explained. “I had no choice but to have Yaoyao transfer to Capital High School since I can’t take care of her.”
Jiang Youli: “So that’s why…”
Lu Meishan: “Are you and Yaoyao fighting?”
Jiang Youli: “I made her angry.”
She really regretted being so cowardly and not realizing her true feelings sooner.
Lu Meishan now knew how Lu Yaoyi felt, but she chose to let the two girls handle it themselves. “Yaoyao probably isn’t too mad at you. Talk to her properly, and I think she’ll forgive you.”
Jiang Youli’s eyebrows trembled. “Mhm, I’ll definitely apologize to her properly.”
Lu Meishan: “I’ll definitely bring Yaoyao back to Jiangcheng when I have time.”
Jiang Youli: “Auntie Lu.”
Lu Meishan: “Mhm?”
Jiang Youli: “Actually… I called you because I need your help with something.”
Lu Meishan: “What can I help you with?”
“I’m at the Capital High School gate right now, but the security guard won’t let me in because I’m not a student of Capital High School,” Jiang Youli looked back at the security guard’s room. “Auntie Lu, can you get the security guard to let me in?”
Lu Meishan was very surprised. “Dingding, you’re in the capital?”
Jiang Youli: “Mhm, I came to the capital just to apologize to Lu Yaoyi.”
Lu Meishan: “That’s easy to do.”
Jiang Youli: “What… what do you mean?”
Lu Meishan: “Just wait at the gate, and the security guard will let you in.”
“Okay…” Jiang Youli was a little confused. “Okay.”
They hung up.
Jiang Youli watched the guardhouse, waiting for the security guard to let her in.
Sure enough,
The security guard came out of the guardhouse a moment later.
Jiang Youli silently hoped the guard would let her in.
The security guard raised his hand and pointed at Jiang Youli. “That student over there.”
Jiang Youli: “Huh?”
The security guard waved his hand. “Come here for a second.”
Jiang Youli obediently walked to the security guard.
Security guard: “Are you Jiang Youli?”
“Mhm,” Jiang Youli nodded. “I’m Jiang Youli.”
The security guard didn’t expect that the S-class Alpha girl in front of him would be able to get the principal of Capital High School to personally call him and give her permission to enter. He pressed the remote control in his hand and opened the electronic gate of Capital High School. “You can go in now.”
Jiang Youli thanked him and walked into the school.
She walked aimlessly through the completely unfamiliar campus. The environment of Capital High School was very nice, and it was also one of the best high schools in the country. She thought that Lu Yaoyi’s decision to transfer to Capital High School was a good one.
Of course, their Jiangcheng No. 1 High School wasn’t bad either.
Just then, the class bell rang loudly.
Soon,
Students from Capital High School appeared.
Jiang Youli slowly walked along the path.
Students who passed by kept giving Jiang Youli curious looks.
Jiang Youli didn’t know which class Lu Yaoyi was in, or where to find her, so she stopped a female student walking toward her.
“Hi, I’m sorry to bother you.”
The female student looked at Jiang Youli. “What is it?”
Jiang Youli: “Do you know Lu Yaoyi?”
Female student: “Lu Yaoyi?”
Jiang Youli: “Mhm.”
“I knew her when she was an exchange student here last year. She suddenly transferred to our school today, and people are constantly running to Class 5 to see her,” the female student looked Jiang Youli up and down. “Are you looking for her?”
“Mhm,” Jiang Youli said. “She’s in Class 5?”
“She transferred to Class 5 of Grade 1 today,” the female student turned and pointed to the Grade 1 teaching building. “You can find her in Class 5 in that building.”
Jiang Youli glanced in the direction the female student was pointing. “Okay.”
She looked back at the female student. “Thank you.”
Female student: “You’re welcome.”
Jiang Youli ran toward the teaching building that the female student pointed at.
She finally found Class 5 of Grade 1, but the classroom was empty. She stopped a male student walking down the hallway and asked, “Hi, where did everyone from Class 5 go?”
The male student glanced at Class 5.
Then he answered Jiang Youli, “They went to the art building for computer class.”
Jiang Youli: “Where is the art building?”
“The art building is not far behind this teaching building,” the male student pointed to the southwest. “If you keep walking back, you’ll find the art building.”
“Okay,” Jiang Youli nodded slightly. “Thank you.”
She then ran toward the stairs.
After leaving the Grade 1 teaching building, Jiang Youli found the art building with the help of other students, but class had already started by the time she got there. She figured that Lu Yaoyi would come out of the art building after her computer class was over.
So she went and sat on the edge of a flower bed next to the art building to wait for class to end.
“…”
Time passed quickly, and one class ended in the blink of an eye.
The class bell rang.
The art building suddenly became noisy and lively.
Students from Capital High School continuously came out of the art building.
Jiang Youli stood up and looked at every student who came out of the art building, searching for Lu Yaoyi. She was the only one not wearing a school uniform, and she attracted a lot of whispers.
She ignored all of them.
A moment later,
A figure that was more familiar than anything else appeared in Jiang Youli’s sight.
Lu Yaoyi walked out of the art building with a few classmates.
Lu Yaoyi had already changed into the Capital High School uniform.
It wasn’t until she saw Lu Yaoyi at that moment that Jiang Youli realized how much she missed her. A tidal wave of guilt for Lu Yaoyi swept over her. All she wanted to do now was to properly apologize to Lu Yaoyi for everything she had done.
She ran over and stood in front of Lu Yaoyi.
“Lu Yaoyi…”
The commotion attracted the attention of a crowd of people around them.
Their eyes met.
When Lu Yaoyi saw Jiang Youli suddenly appear in front of her, a look of shock flashed in her eyes, but she quickly returned to her cold expression and hid the turmoil in her heart.
Jiang Youli had already planned what she was going to say to Lu Yaoyi.
But when she was actually facing her, she felt so helpless.
“Lu Yaoyi… I…”
Just then, an Omega standing next to Lu Yaoyi spoke up.
“Yaoyao, who is this high-class Alpha?”
Lu Yaoyi moved her gaze away expressionlessly. “I don’t know her.”
Her voice was devoid of warmth.
After she said that, she walked past Jiang Youli.
Jiang Youli froze.
She doesn’t know me…
The other students followed Lu Yaoyi and left.
Jiang Youli had finally mustered up the courage to face herself and Lu Yaoyi, but the moment Lu Yaoyi walked away, she felt like she was back to square one. She had never given in to Lu Yaoyi since they were little, but now, she was willing to do anything to get Lu Yaoyi’s forgiveness.
She gritted her teeth, turned around, and ran back to Lu Yaoyi, reaching out and stopping her.
“Lu Yaoyi, I know you’re mad at me.”
“Please listen to me, okay? There’s a lot I want to tell you.”
Lu Yaoyi ignored her.
Just as she was about to walk past Jiang Youli, Jiang Youli grabbed her wrist.
“Lu Yaoyi…”
“Please give me a chance to explain, okay?”
“I…”
Jiang Youli’s words were cut off.
“Who are you? Didn’t you hear Lu Yaoyi say she doesn’t even know you?” A female Alpha suddenly rushed over and grabbed Jiang Youli’s wrist. “Don’t you dare put your hands on her. Don’t you know there are boundaries between A and O?”
When Jiang Youli heard that, her face fell, and she gave the female Alpha a cold look.
“Get lost.”
“This is between her and me. What does it have to do with you?”
A confrontation between Alphas was about to begin.
“Let go of me.”
Lu Yaoyi spoke coldly.
When Jiang Youli heard Lu Yaoyi’s voice, her aggressive attitude immediately subsided.
She looked back at Lu Yaoyi with a gentle expression.
Their eyes met.
Lu Yaoyi’s eyes were calm and emotionless. “Let go.”
“Are you deaf?” The female Alpha tightened her grip on Jiang Youli’s wrist. “Let go of her, now.”
Jiang Youli stared blankly into Lu Yaoyi’s eyes. She felt that Lu Yaoyi’s gaze was so distant and cold, making her feel as if Lu Yaoyi was right in front of her but a world away. She had never seen Lu Yaoyi look at her like this, no matter how much she used to mess with her.
She hesitated for a moment and then reluctantly let go of Lu Yaoyi’s hand.
The moment she let go,
Lu Yaoyi walked past Jiang Youli without looking back.
Jiang Youli turned to look at Lu Yaoyi’s retreating figure, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
“I’m warning you, Capital High School is my turf. I know you’re not a student here, and don’t think I’m afraid of you just because you’re an S-class Alpha,” the arrogant female Alpha pushed Jiang Youli’s shoulder. “Lu Yaoyi is the Omega I’ve got my eye on. If you dare to bother her again, I won’t be so nice.”
