Everyone’s laughter suddenly halted at the arrival of the man at the entrance.

Although he did not have many bodyguards surrounding him and was alone, he exuded such a mighty aura that it was hard for someone to not notice him despite his quiet approach.

With her back facing Si Zhengting, Xue Rong did not notice him and couldn’t help but say heatedly, “Teacher Zhao, there’s a reason for why I speak of her like this. Leaving her work aside, she claimed that she has a rich second-generation heir boyfriend and was bragging about it. We asked her to bring her boyfriend over, but she just came up with so many excuses to not bring him here. That’s why we were looking at her in this light. If you are really capable, bring your boyfriend over! We are not materialistic, we just think that it’s not good of you to lie to your cla.s.smates!”

Xue Rong’s words made Zhuang Nainai utterly speechless.

If she had not insisted on introducing a partner to her over and over again, why would Xie Yutong even say that she had a rich second-generation heir boyfriend?

How dare she have the cheek to say this now?!

Just when she was about to rebut, a deep and crisp voice could be heard from behind, “Sorry for being late.”

Zhuang Nainai jumped. Her eyes widened in shock as she turned around, only to see Si Zhengting standing behind her.

Why was he here?

When did he arrive?!

Momentarily, Zhuang Nainai was dazed. She looked at him in confusion and disbelief.

Her eyes must be playing tricks on her.

Thus, she blinked her eyes twice. However, why didn’t the figure in front vanish?!

Si Zhengting was exasperated by her behavior.

This fellow clearly knew that someone would taunt her at the cla.s.s gathering, but she did not even ask him for help to keep up appearances?

Moreover, why was she just standing there in a daze now?

With a cold expression, Si Zhengting stepped forward and grabbed Zhuang Nainai’s wrist.

The warm touch immediately jolted Zhuang Nainai back to her senses. The person in front of her was really him!

Her eyes lit up instantly. Before her mind could even come around, she wrapped both of her arms around his. Then, she stood by him obediently and remained silent.

Everyone: “…!!”

Si Zhengting: “…!!”

Xie Yutong was extremely stunned. She secretly gave her a thumbs-up and lowered her voice to say such that only the two of them could hear her, “How much did you spend on him? He’s way more handsome than the one I hired!”

Zhuang Nainai was flabbergasted.

Si Zhengting: “…!!”

Si Zhengting raised his brows and slanted his head to look at Zhuang Nainai with an even more ominous expression. “How much did you spend?”

Zhuang Nainai: “…”

So, the real enemy today was not Xue Rong but Xie Yutong, huh?!

She really did not know whether to laugh or cry as she waved it off quickly. “N-No, it’s not like what she said, I…”

Before she could even finish explaining, Si Zhengting asked, “You even planned to use Su Yanbin?”

Zhuang Nainai: “…”

Zhuang Nainai immediately tightened her fawning grip on his arm before looking up and saying, “I know you are busy, that’s why I wanted to ask him for help.”

Upon saying this, she blinked and displayed a quick-praise-my-thoughtfulness expression.

Si Zhengting: “…”

“So, I have to thank you for looking at the bigger picture?”

Zhuang Nainai instantly smiled shyly. “You’re welcome.”

Si Zhengting: “…!!”
