Chapter 1154: Ye Linlang’s Was That Vain?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When the students of grade one Class A saw Ye Linlang appear, the entire class fell into a strange silence.
It was Ye Siyao who broke the silence first.
She looked at Ye Linlang provocatively and pointed at the light purple phone that Ye Linlang was holding.
“Ye Linlang, where did you get the money to buy a phone?! I remember that you had to ask my daddy for money to buy revision materials!”
Because most of the girls in the class were unhappy with Ye Linlang because of Jiang Qiran and Yin Zihan, a girl next to Ye Siyao quickly chimed in.
“Exactly. I remember this is the phone that the female lead endorsed in “Summer After Your Summer,” right? It isn’t cheap either. It costs four to five thousand yuan!”
“Ye Siyao, did your daddy really only give Ye Linlang a bit of living expenses? Then how could she afford such an expensive phone?”
…
Hearing the girls’ chattering and needle-like eyes, Ye Linlang suddenly felt very annoyed.
Just now, she was actually using the English dictionary on her phone to look up a few new words, so she forgot to put it back for a moment. Who would have thought that Ye Siyao would notice.
There were plenty of people in the class who used the latest iPhone, so why did they have to stare at her and not let go?
Ye Linlang felt a little uncomfortable, so she immediately snorted coldly at Ye Siyao.
“What does it have to do with you? Make way, don’t block the path.”
Ye Siyao saw that Ye Linlang actually had such a bad temper and dared to directly ignore her question, so she was instantly furious.
Ye Siyao put her hands on her hips and no longer cared about her ladylike posture. She blocked the entrance of the class passage like a shrew, preventing Ye Linlang from walking to her seat.
“Ye Linlang, you better make it clear today. Where did you get this phone? If you don’t tell me, I have reason to suspect that you’ve done something illegal!”
“Yeah, it’s a phone that costs four to five thousand yuan! How can Ye Linlang afford that? Wasn’t it the case that Ye Siyao’s father didn’t give Ye Linlang a lot of money?”
“Ye Linlang can’t really be doing some shady business, right?”
…
When Ye Linlang heard those discussions, she felt like her entire head was going to explode!
Why did they like to speculate about her so maliciously?
Ye Linlang really didn’t want to waste any more words with these bitches. Her expression suddenly became very cold.
“How the phone got here is private. Forgive me for not having any comment. Also, please move aside and don’t block the way!”
When the girls saw Ye Linlang say this, they were even more certain that Ye Linlang was definitely up to something. Otherwise, why wouldn’t she be willing to tell them how she got her phone?!
Although there were seven days of holiday, with double the temporary salary on national day, the students could at most only go to the restaurant to serve and to wash dishes, right?
This way, they could at most earn two thousand yuan, and it was already estimated from the best case scenario. Ye Linlang had an injury on her leg at the time, so how could she possibly go to a restaurant to work?!
Then Ye Linlang’s phone, no matter how one looked at it, didn’t seem to come from the right place!
A girl who was usually with Ye Siyao glared at Ye Linlang, her expression arrogant and disdainful.
“Ye Linlang, you didn’t really do something shameful, did you?”
“That’s right. Look at her, a wild girl from the countryside. She must be jealous of us using Apple phones, but her parents didn’t give her much money. How could she afford such a good phone?”
At this moment, a girl suddenly thought of something and looked at Ye Linlang with her mouth agape.
“Ye Linlang, you didn’t buy a pirated product, did you? That brand is good, so you bought a high-quality imitation?”
Ye Linlang was extremely angry at this moment.
Were these girls done yet?
She replied coldly.
“So what if it’s a pirated phone?”
Those girls seemed to take Ye Linlang’s question as a tacit agreement.
If it was a pirated fake, then it made sense. Don’t look at how expensive the original was. Perhaps a high-quality imitation phone only had a slightly similar outer shell, but the inner core was far from the same, and costs only a few hundred yuan.
It wasn’t surprising that Ye Linlang could afford a pirated phone that only cost a few hundred yuan.
Ye Siyao also treated this as the truth. She looked down at Ye Linlang with disdain in her eyes.
“Ah, Ye Linlang, you dare to use this kind of fake and shoddy product? I’m dying of laughter!”
A girl next to Ye Siyao squeezed Ye Siyao’s shoulder.
“Siyao, what are you laughing at? Ye Linlang is your family’s daughter, after all. Your Ye family has a big business, but you actually let your sister use pirated goods. This is too much to laugh at!”
“Who wants to acknowledge a country bumpkin as their sister?! This kind of wild girl who no one wants has no self-control at all!”
Ye Siyao put her hands on her hips and was almost looking at Ye Linlang with her chin.
“Ye Linlang, you actually used pirated goods to throw our Ye family’s face! You can be anyone’s sister, but I, Ye Siyao, will never acknowledge you as my sister!”
Ye Linlang looked at Ye Siyao’s disdainful gaze and the crowd who didn’t mind watching the show. She finally couldn’t take it anymore.
She grabbed her phone with her fingers and immediately retorted coldly.
“Ye Siyao, do you think I want a younger sister who stands in my way and speaks dirty?”
“You–”
Ye Siyao stomped her feet angrily and almost wanted to slap Ye Linlang’s face.
This wild girl from the countryside actually dared to talk to her like that!
However, the entire class saw a girl next to Ye Siyao who grabbed her first.
She gave Ye Siyao a look that said, “Don’t do anything.”
“Siyao, why are you so angry at such a low-class person? If she’s using an imitation, then she’s using an imitation. The person who’s losing face is Ye Linlang herself!”
Ye Siyao finally managed to hold back her anger.
She glared at Ye Linlang fiercely and finally reluctantly moved aside to make way for Ye Linlang.
“Ye Linlang, we’ll see. The monthly exam is the day after tomorrow! You have to remember our promise. If you lose, you have to apologize to me in front of the entire class!”
“It’s not certain who will apologize.”
Ye Linlang looked at Ye Siyao coldly, then quickly walked over with her bag in his arms.
…
After the two of them finished arguing, the class returned to silence.
The Chinese class representative walked to the podium and began to take the lead in reciting ancient poems.
Jiang Qiran also came in.
The whole class couldn’t help but fall silent for a moment. They all looked at him. It was different from the disdainful atmosphere when Ye Linlang came in. Instead, there was a faint sense of worship.
Jiang Qiran did not seem to notice the fiery gazes of the girls. He sat back in his seat and did not say a word.
Just as Jiang Qiran was flipping through his Chinese textbook, he suddenly heard Xia Qianqian say something.
“Qiran… you also look down on those who use fake brands, right? Those who are so vain and don’t respect intellectual property rights.”
