After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 201

Chapter 201: Chapter 201: The Mysterious Demon Hunter Comes Online

Blocking... Blocking the way??

These roses were arranged early in the morning specifically for the classroom, just for today!

Such meticulously prepared romance would have moved any other girl to tears by now, and yet Lu Sheng calls them an obstruction?!

And this necklace, she didn’t even bother to glance at it, even though it cost over six hundred thousand to have it specially purchased from abroad!

Upon hearing Lu Sheng’s words and seeing her expression so indifferent it lacked any trace of emotion, Fu Chen felt his breath catch in his chest.

Are there really girls who don’t like roses and jewelry?

Is Lu Sheng truly indifferent, or is she deliberately putting on this high and mighty act to embarrass him in front of the class?

Ever since Fu Chen learned that Lu Sheng was panda, he felt his whole mindset had changed.

These past many days, he’s been like a lost soul, constantly unable to stop himself from thinking about matters related to Lu Sheng.

Looking back, he thought that Lu Sheng, an out-of-towner and illegitimate daughter who couldn’t make a public appearance, only managed to come to Jiang City because of that absurd engagement with him.

Clearly, she saw him as a stepping stone, going to great lengths to contact his grandfather, all to marry into the Fu Family and switch from being a despised country illegitimate daughter to a Young Madam of a wealthy family.

But later on, Lu Sheng’s temperament and speech revealed that she was nothing like the ugly, uncultured, poor, and stupid girl he had imagined.

With her pretty looks and good figure, her ability to play the piano and medical skill, scoring full marks on entrance exams, and even being his long-admired panda, she continuously shattered his perceptions.

The more Fu Chen thought about it, the more he regretted.

From the first time he met Lu Sheng, he was full of contempt and mockery, had pushed her to the ground at home causing her hand to be pierced by broken vase shards, and later constantly gave her trouble on Qianrou’s behalf.

Now, look at him. Lu Qianrou said she would go overseas and did just that, ditching him in the process, and he ended up with this tension-filled relationship with Lu Sheng.

Truth be told, apart from being an illegitimate daughter, Lu Qianrou couldn’t compare to Lu Sheng in any way.

Clearly, Lu Sheng was a much better match for him.

After all, there had been an engagement between them, so Fu Chen thought he should do something to ease the relationship with Lu Sheng.

If Lu Sheng would take this chance to step down gracefully, he could consider making her his girlfriend, thereby fulfilling one of his grandfather’s wishes.

But Fu Chen didn’t expect that Lu Sheng would so blatantly disregard his face and disdain the flowers and gifts he had carefully prepared in front of so many classmates.

Fu Chen instantly felt like he couldn’t save face, his expression turning dark.

No, what is Lu Sheng acting so haughty for?

Just because she has a few skills and revealed a few impressive identities, does she really think she’s a goddess who can disregard other people’s feelings?

All his life, girls have secret crushes on him, pursuing him with various surprises prepared.

Even when he was with Lu Qianrou, it was always Lu Qianrou who was fawning over him.

The first time he secretly does something like this for someone else, it’s met with such treatment?

Hearing the whispers around him and feeling all eyes turning his way as if mocking him, Fu Chen was somewhat angered and embarrassed. He immediately put on a stern face and threw the gift box onto the ground with a smack.

Lifting his chin, he said: "I said, I was only giving you these things to thank you on behalf of my grandfather, I really don’t know what you’re being arrogant about here."

"I’ll have someone clean up these flowers later, and as for the necklace, if you don’t want it, just discard it. After all, my Fu Family isn’t lacking that little amount of six hundred thousand."

After speaking, Fu Chen huffed and prepared to turn around and leave, feeling that this move somewhat reclaimed his face.

However, he had only taken a few steps when he was called out by Lu Sheng.

"Wait—"

Upon hearing this, Fu Chen paused, thinking that Lu Sheng might have had a change of heart.

He pretended to be impatient, though his heartbeat quickened as he turned around arrogantly, saying: "What, didn’t you say you didn’t want them? Are you now regrett..."

Before he could finish his sentence "Are you now regretting it?" he saw Lu Sheng bending down without expression, picking up the gift box from the ground.

Then once again, throwing the gift box accurately into the trash can at the back of the classroom.

"If you’re going to discard trash, put it in the trash bin."

"Qianrou’s third brother used to adore her so much, but that day, in front of a live broadcast for the whole internet, he told everyone that his only sister was Lu Sheng, and that he came to Shengjing just for Lu Sheng, not leaving any face for Qianrou."

"And not one of Qianrou’s five brothers came to our coffee shop that day; they all went to be with Lu Sheng, treating her like a prized gem in the videos."

"I really don’t know what Lu Sheng did in these few months to make the Lu Family like her so much. I suspect she must have some sort of vixen’s bewitching technique."

"Moreover, there’s something I still can’t figure out to this day."

Saying this, Tang Yiyi leaned in closer, "Tell me, before coming to Jiang City, Lu Sheng was just an illegitimate daughter growing up in the countryside, relying on her mother."

"I heard from Hu Yun that when she was going to school in the countryside, her family was so poor they had to apply for poverty assistance."

"If Lu Sheng’s family was so poor, where did she get the money to take piano lessons? And where did she get the money to go abroad for underground boxing matches?"

"Think about it, don’t you find it very strange?"

Tang Yiyi felt her suspicions were well-grounded.

However, before Lin Ya could reply, Tang Yiyi heard a man’s gentle and refined voice coming from behind them—

"It does sound quite strange."

Tang Yiyi and Lin Ya, caught talking behind someone’s back, were startled by the voice.

When they turned around and looked, they both gasped and widened their eyes in amazement at the astonishing sight before them.

The man who had suddenly appeared, dressed in a khaki shirt paired with white trousers and wearing black riding boots, was clad in typical equestrian attire, with a classic and refreshing color scheme.

Tall and statuesque like a graceful scholar, with clean-cut facial features. His rugged handsomeness was accentuated by a pair of scholarly, gold-rimmed glasses perched on the bridge of his prominent nose.

The sunlight spilling into the corridor adorned him with a soft and gentle hue.

The man withheld the sharpness in his gaze, looking at the two high school girls before him with a slight apologetic smile on his face.

"Apologies, I was just passing by and happened to overhear your conversation."

"May I ask, are you in the same class as this Lu Sheng you just mentioned? It sounds like she’s quite a mysterious student."
