Hidden identities of the AI Heiress

Chapter 82: Chapter 82: What’s Good About Being Human?

Editor: Inschain

“Let’s do as Qiaoqiao said,”

Lu Jingzhi said this while looking at Wu Xianfeng.

Wu Xianfeng: “…”

Is he really a teacher? Does he know about respecting teachers and valuing their teachings?

Lu Xue is Lu Jingzhi’s cousin, and now that the parents of the person involved had spoken, what could Wu Xianfeng say?

It’s the Lu Family’s business; let them solve it themselves.

Lu Xue didn’t speak.

She could argue with Qiao Yun, quarrel with Jiang Huai, and even talk back to her teachers, but she didn’t dare in front of Lu Jingzhi.

In the beginning, Lu Xue just wanted to take revenge for Lu Ting, but after the coming-of-age ceremony, she genuinely began to dislike Qiao Yun.

A mere country girl daring to damage her father’s business!

She was really an eyesore!

Qiao Yun noticed the look in Lu Xue’s eyes and thought to herself, humans really are complex creatures.

When I learn how to conduct myself, will I also possess these complex human traits?

So what’s so good about being human?

Qiao Yun blinked, her expression blank.

At this moment, Wu Xianfeng looked at Qiao Yun differently, and upon careful reflection, he realized the entire situation had been under Qiao Yun’s control, and he, as their teacher, seemed to only have the role of nodding along.

This was a promising youngster; he must treat her well and strive to get Qiao Yun into Beijing University.

He would take pride in that as well.

Lu Jingzhi’s face was overcast as he warned Lu Xue, “I’ll have a serious talk with your dad about this later.”

Lu Xue said humiliatedly, “Big Brother Lu, I was wrong. Please don’t tell my dad.”

If the family business suffered again because of her, she guessed her dad wouldn’t let her off the hook.

Lu Jingzhi’s eyes bore down with a heavy gaze, not saying anything more. He called for Qiao Yun to leave with quick strides, leaving Lu Xue to her confused and uneasy thoughts.

Qiao Yun saw Lu Jingzhi following her to the classroom and said emotionlessly, “You can go back.”

“I’ll walk you to the classroom,” Lu Jingzhi insisted.

Qiao Yun refused, “No need.”

A complex look that couldn’t be hidden flashed in Lu Jingzhi’s sharp eyes. “I didn’t mean that before.”

Qiao Yun glanced up at him, her face puzzled.

“I didn’t believe you cheated. I was too hasty earlier, which is why I apologized first,” Lu Jingzhi explained.

The interplay of light and shadow in the corridor cast upon her side face, making her snow-white complexion appear even colder.

Qiao Yun didn’t take it to heart, honestly saying, “It’s fine, I’m used to it.”

I’m used to it…

Lu Jingzhi’s heart felt as though it had been struck by a hammer. Was she implying she had grown used to being misunderstood by him?

Looking at Qiao Yun’s tired complexion, Lu Jingzhi felt inexplicably estranged.

Even though Qiao Yun was younger than him, her thoughts were a mystery to him.

So… it wasn’t strange that he always misunderstood her, was it?

As though finding an excuse, he hesitated before saying, “If something happens, you must tell me. Don’t hide it. I’m your big brother, and I will definitely be on your side.”

Qiao Yun just responded indifferently, not promising anything.

Lu Jingzhi pursed his lips and asked, “Are you not getting along well at school?”

Because of the false accusation, he suspected Qiao Yun might be having a hard time at school.

But Tingting hadn’t mentioned anything, it seemed he would have to ask Tingting later about Qiaoqiao’s actual situation in the class.

“It’s okay,” Qiao Yun replied to him.

Seeing Qiao Yun’s lack of interest, Lu Jingzhi had a lot he wanted to say, but it got stuck in his throat and he finally let out a sigh, “I’m leaving now. You should try to get along with your classmates at school.”

Qiao Yun lifted her eyes slightly and hummed in acknowledgment.

Lu Jingzhi still left. He truly didn’t know what to say to Qiao Yun. To tell the truth, whenever he interacted with his younger sister, there was always a bit of discomfort between them.

Perhaps it was because of Qiao Yun’s cold nature.
