Chapter 12

Li Jiawei really didn't know what to say at this moment.

Only now did she truly realize how thick Ning Yi's skin was. Before she transferred to Class 9, she had already heard a lot about Ning Yi.

It was said that as long as someone had a bit of power, he would try to flatter and ingratiate himself with them, especially with Xu Kun. Even though Xu Kun was just toying with Ning Yi, Ning Yi would still go up to him and get slapped.

Such things were not just rumors; she had seen them happen several times after she transferred to the class.

However, at that time, although she thought Ning Yi had a thick skin, it was somewhat understandable. After all, he was an orphan, with no parents and no source of income. His academic performance was so poor that the only thing he could do was to get a high school diploma and then go out into society. So, if he could ingratiate himself with a few classmates from well-off families, it would be much easier for him to find a job.

But today, Ning Yi's change gave her a completely new impression.

He actually played a trick on Pang Daquan, Xu Kun, and Li Tianhao, three guys who Ning Yi used to kowtow to.

This couldn't help but make her look at Ning Yi in a new light. After all, in this school, there weren't many people who dared to play such tricks on these guys.

But Ning Yi did it.

However, she didn't expect that after all this trouble, he would still revert to his old self.

If he knew he might be beaten up in the dormitory by Xu Kun, why did he have to offend these guys so thoroughly?

Did he really believe she would help him? It was really incomprehensible.

Moreover, the despicable guy, even if she wanted to help him, he didn't need to make such a shameless request in front of the whole class. What did he mean by staying at her place for a night? If this got out, people would misunderstand it in all sorts of ways.

But on the other hand, although his words were absurd, they made sense. Now, the only person in the class who could protect him was her. If she didn't help, he would definitely be in big trouble tonight. He might not be killed, but it wasn't impossible for him to be beaten up.

So, Li Jiawei was really blocked by Ning Yi's words.

"Damn, what if I beat you? Do you think you can enter the dormitory tonight? Even the Heavenly King can't save you... damn it." Liu Junjun couldn't hold back and started cursing.

Xu Kun rolled his eyes and glared at Liu Junjun. What a pig-like teammate. If he hadn't said that, Li Jiawei might not have said anything... now...

Sure enough, Li Jiawei, who was still hesitating, got angry when she heard Liu Junjun's words. She then shouted at Ning Yi, "Fine, Ning Yi, you can stay at my place tonight. I want to see who dares to touch you."

Hearing this, Liu Junjun immediately cowered, looking at Xu Kun's dark face and quietly lowering his head.

"Thank you, Class President, for taking me in." Ning Yi smiled... Li Jiawei felt a mix of shame and annoyance. This guy, he was taking advantage of the situation.

"But I need to go back to the dormitory first. What if they can't find me and steal my stuff?" Ning Yi said seriously.

Xu Kun turned his face away. Sun, what do you have that can be stolen?

But Ning Yi really went back to the dormitory, packed some necessary things, especially clothes, and then went downstairs.

Xu Kun and the others could only stare. Liu Junjun deliberately bumped shoulders with Ning Yi, but ended up falling on his butt and couldn't get up for a long time.

"Lord Kun, are you just going to let him walk away?" Liu Junjun, after getting up and cursing, was extremely angry.

Xu Kun shrugged, "With Li Jiawei around, we can't provoke her. But just because we can't, doesn't mean no one can. I've already talked to Lord Hui, and he said he would take care of it. Heh, I don't believe that with Lord Hui's help, we can't deal with Ning Yi, that waste of space."

"I hope so. But, isn't this guy crazy? Why did he suddenly change like this?" Chen Baihao frowned and asked.

Xu Kun scratched his head, "It's really strange. I also feel like he's become a different person. The other day, Lord Hui told me that this waste of space would disappear, but today he's back... You don't know, Lord Hui sounded like he had seen a ghost."

Ning Yi simply packed a few of his clothes and some textbooks into a shabby backpack. This was pretty much all he had.

To be honest, Ning Yi's life was really miserable, a word for it: bleak!

He looked at Li Jiawei's car, the latest model of BENZ, which was the Mercedes-Benz on Earth, with bulletproof features, costing at least four million. This kind of car looked like something a boss would drive, but it was used to pick up and drop off a wealthy princess. Ah, the world of the rich was truly different.

There was also a dedicated driver in the car. Ning Yi glanced at him. Damn! Another martial artist!

"Mid-stage Red Rank!"

Although he was weaker than the woman beside Feng Yingruo, his status as a martial artist was enough to command respect.

Ah, I wonder how many energy points I would get if I secretly absorbed his battle aura, Ning Yi couldn't help but fantasize.

By the way, after absorbing Pang Daquan's battle aura three times this afternoon, he didn't even attend the evening study session. I wonder if anything will happen.

"Get in the car." While he was lost in thought, Li Jiawei's voice suddenly rang in his ear.

Damn, I was distracted! He looked over and saw that Li Jiawei was already sitting in the back seat, her beautiful eyes looking at him with a hint of helplessness, "Don't want to leave?"

"Not at all, hehe." Ning Yi immediately got in with his shabby backpack... of course, Li Jiawei didn't let him sit in the back with her. He sat next to the driver.

The driver looked deeply at Li Jiawei but still gave Ning Yi a friendly smile, "Hello, I'm He Yong. What's your name, little brother?"

"Oh, Uncle Yong, I'm Ning Yi." Ning Yi felt a faint, intimidating aura from him. This must be the power of a martial artist, but he remained calm.

"Nice, you look quite spirited... Which class are you in?"

"Uncle Yong... he's just a regular classmate, hitching a ride." Li Jiawei was embarrassed. No wonder he was her father's loyal subordinate, so nosy. Was he trying to investigate his background?

The driver quickly shut up, "Well, let's go home then."

Ning Yi, not knowing any better, said, "Uncle Yong, I'm in Class 9, Grade 3, and I'm in the same class as the Class President. She's a great person... I'm her fan."

Li Jiawei clenched her fist, truly regretting bringing this guy along.

Fortunately, the driver and Ning Yi seemed to sense Li Jiawei's rolling anger and both kept quiet.

It was almost 10 PM, and the night was cool. When the car drove to a relatively dark street, Ning Yi spoke up with a smile, "Uncle Yong, I'm here. Can you stop the car for a moment?"

Since Li Jiawei had said Ning Yi was hitching a ride, He Yong didn't suspect anything and nodded with a smile, stopping the car.

Li Jiawei, sitting in the back, looked stunned. Seeing Ning Yi calmly open the door and get out, she couldn't help but ask, "You... aren't you going to stay at my place?"

Ning Yi looked at her and smiled faintly, "I was just joking... a man should be self-reliant, not a caged bird!"
