Coming out of the cafeteria, I didn't head back to the classroom, but instead sat down by the flower bed, sipping my brown sugar tea slowly, letting the warmth from the ginger tea fill my entire body.
I can't even remember the last time I had a proper rest.
In my pursuit of Gu Pei, not only did I give him all my pocket money, but I also ran errands for him and fetched meals regardless of the weather, taking care of his daily needs like a servant.
If I weren't so exhausted, I wouldn't always be dozing off in class.
This small cup of ginger tea can't rid me of fatigue, but it's enough to restore my spirit.
When I returned to the classroom, the first bell had already rung for class.
Gu Pei saw me come in and angrily asked, "Why are you only coming now? Where's the ginger tea? Where's the medicine?"
"What medicine?" I looked at him coldly.
Completely lacking the usual enthusiasm when looking at Gu Pei.
Gu Pei looked at me, unaware of my change, still arrogantly scolding me as usual:
"The painkillers for Little Meng! Are you blind? Can't you see how uncomfortable she is? You can't even manage such a small thing!"
I glanced at Shen Meng sitting at the desk, her face pale, and sneered:
"What relation do I have with her, why should I buy her medicine?"
Shen Meng's family conditions are average.
After knowing Gu Pei, Gu Pei treated her exceptionally well.
Every time my dad gave me something nice, Gu Pei would take it and give it to Shen Meng.
Even the Hermes headband Shen Meng is wearing now is mine.
Everyone says Shen Meng is a white, beautiful, wealthy woman!
Yet they don't know, these two are swiping my card.
Spending my money, enjoying everything of mine!
But treating me like a servant!
Gu Pei said, "Alright, alright, Xiao Qing, you're making a fuss, aren't you? If you keep this up, don't blame me for ignoring you next time! You'll just beg me to forgive you then!"
I looked at Gu Pei and couldn't help but laugh,
"Gu Pei, have you got it wrong? Where do I need your forgiveness?"
Seeing that I dare to argue with Gu Pei, the others turned to look.
Their eyes were filled with curiosity, thinking how the school's well-known sycophant suddenly changed character?
Gu Pei clearly didn't expect me to say this.
He looked at me in astonishment, but after hesitating only a moment, he reverted to his arrogant look.
Warning me, "If you have the guts, don't come home with us this afternoon."
"Alright."
My response was casual yet extremely decisive.
As if I hadn't even fully heard Gu Pei's words before eager to agree.
My behavior made the surrounding students feel strange, but to me, it was Gu Pei himself who said he wouldn't ride my car home.
Seeing my current behavior, Shen Meng's desk mate Wang Yan suddenly jumped out to uphold justice:
"No, Xiao Qing, what's going on with you? Just asking you to buy medicine, why so much talk? Can't you see Shen Meng is unwell?"
I took out my book, without looking back and said,
"If you're so concerned, then you go ahead."
Wang Yan righteously insisted, "It's your job to take care of them, what can I do?"
"My job?" I drew a cold smile at the corner of my mouth, "Since when did taking care of the two of them become my job?"
"You're the servant from the school hunk's family, now asking you to buy medicine for the school hunk's girlfriend, isn't it only right?"
Upon hearing this, my anger was stirred up again, I turned to Gu Pei, my eyes cold,
"Gu Pei, is it you going around saying I'm a servant for your family?"
