Chapter 431: Refusing To Go To The Bar
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Xia Wan and Xia Chen were about to leave, Song Zhi approached them with a cheerful smile. “Xia Wan, Xia Chen, why don’t you come along? The exams are over, and it’s time to relax a bit. You should strike a balance between work and rest.”
Xia Wan declined directly, saying, “No, my foundation is weak, and there’s still a lot I need to study. I won’t be going to the bar.”
Song Zhi’s interest wasn’t really in Xia Wan, so when she refused, Song Zhi turned to Xia Chen. “How about you, Xia Chen? I know you’ve always had good grades, and you can answer teachers’ questions during cla.s.s. Are you not afraid of falling behind in your studies?”
Xia Chen also refused, saying, “I won’t be going either. I need to go home and help with some work.”
After being rejected by both, Song Zhi’s smile faded, and she said with annoyance, “I haven’t bothered you all this time. Now, it’s a cla.s.s activity, and I came over to invite you voluntarily. Yet, you heartlessly refuse. It’s not giving face to me or our cla.s.smates.”
Some cla.s.smates who had agreed to go along chimed in, “That’s right, everyone is going, so you should come too.”
Despite the crowd, Xia Wan didn’t feel embarra.s.sed about refusing. “We’re in our senior year now, and we should prioritize our studies. Going to a bar at any time is not a recommended activity.”
She scanned the faces of her cla.s.smates and added, “If you keep insisting, I won’t mind telling our homeroom teacher.”
Hearing Xia Wan threaten to inform the teacher, the cla.s.smates dared not persuade further, but they became even more displeased with her.
“Is Xia Wan still a child? She runs to the teacher whenever there’s an issue.
She’s just putting on airs. Let’s see how well she does in this month’s exam.” “Some people look like they work hard but don’t actually learn anything.”
Liu Hua didn’t go to the bar either. She comforted Xia Wan, “Don’t overthink it. You’ve been working hard during this time, and your grades will surely improve.”
Xia Wan smiled, “It’s alright. I’m fine. I won’t let them affect me.”
During the weekend, Xia Wan continued taking extra cla.s.ses and working on her design sketches. At the same time, she visited a bookstore in the county town and picked up some art-related books.
One day, while Xia Feng was tutoring Xia Chen at home, she noticed Xia Wan reading art books on the small balcony in the living room.
Xia Feng smiled and said, “You seem interested in art. I have many books about it. Would you like me to get them for you?”
Xia Wan looked at her with a smile, “Sure, your books are definitely good ones.”
Xia Feng was originally practicing drawing in her room and noticed that the two of them were discussing something related to art, so she came over to join in the conversation.
Sunlight streamed through the window onto the balcony, creating a warm atmosphere.
It wasn’t until Yan Han and Xia Hai returned that Zhou En took her leave. She didn’t stay for dinner.
As usual, Xia Wan inquired about Yan Han’s business and whether there were any issues.
Yan Han, was.h.i.+ng vegetables as she spoke, said, “There’s nothing wrong. Our family’s business is doing well right now. But I am curious why Wen Shuts store hasn’t followed suit with discounts.
“I’ve been observing these past few days, and they’ve never posted any discount notices.
“Some of my close friends even purposely went to their store to check, and there were no discounts inside.
“Wan Wan, have they given up competing with us? If I were them, I’d be anxious by now.”
When calculated, they had been offering a 20% discount for a week, and the clothes in their store were nearly sold out.
Xia Wan also found it strange and asked, “Has Xia Ru not caused any trouble again?”
Yan Han shook her head, “No.”
“That’s indeed strange. Well, let’s just be cautious. Maybe Wen Shu simply doesn’t want to follow us in making losses.”
Hearing Xia Wan’s words, Yan Han felt rea.s.sured. Their clothing store was already operating at a loss, and she didn’t worry that Wen Shuts group would do anything harmful. Besides, they had installed security cameras both outside and inside the store, and their store was close to the police station. She couldn’t imagine that Wen Shu would do something foolish..
