Chapter 89: Chapter 89: Jealousy (Extra for the leader singing a love song) (15th update)

"Psh, what’s so great about her, just a pretty face and good grades, that’s all."

At that moment, a haughty voice rang out.

Su Ming turned his head upon hearing this familiar voice and saw Gu Meng.

She was followed by Qi Shen and the earring-adorned Liu Xiao.

The few students who were discussing stopped talking as soon as they realized it was Gu Meng interjecting, quickly shutting their mouths and leaving with their luggage.

Gu Meng was quite infamous in various schools, after all, quite a few who had offended her had been put in their place.

"Gu Meng, you are so much prettier than Yu Wei."

Qi Shen flattered her, though it went against his genuine opinion.

Of course, it wasn’t that Qi Shen didn’t want to pursue Yu Wei; the problem was that Yu Wei was usually with Qin Feng, making it seem impossible for him to have a chance.

Besides, Gu Meng wasn’t much less attractive than Yu Wei; it was just that their personalities were on completely different levels.

"Big Brother Qi Shen, you’re right! She can’t compare with you."

Liu Xiao quickly echoed.

"Hmph."

Gu Meng snorted coldly, looking enviously at Yu Wei, who was surrounded by adoration, clearly itching to get back at her.

...

"Son, what are you looking at?"

Zhao Ning noticed Su Ming was continuously gazing in that direction and asked out of curiosity.

"Nothing."

Su Ming came back to his senses and replied.

At this time, a sweet voice from the loudspeakers announced,

"Ladies and gentlemen, the ultra-high-speed train S421 bound for Starlight City has arrived at the station. Ticket checking has now started. All students are kindly requested to check in promptly to avoid delaying your journey..."

Many students at the scene began queuing up to have their tickets checked and enter the station.

At that moment, Xiao Lie accompanied by many administrators personally escorted Qin Feng and others through a VIP passage without the need for checking.

Qin Feng and his group were taken aback by this favoritism.

Many photographers continuously clicked their cameras, capturing this historic moment.

Although not every student from the Thirteenth District who got admitted to Imperial Court Academy each year grew up to become a person of great significance,

As long as they were alive, they were certainly pillars of society.

They meant a lot to the Thirteenth District, hence Xiao Lie placed such great importance on them, even deeming it worth his while to personally see them off.

Seeing the train begin checking tickets, Zhao Ning suddenly had teary eyes and, unable to hold back her emotions, said to Su Ming,

"Son, remember to call me when you get there."

"I will, don’t worry, mother; I’ll take good care of myself."

"You’ve never left our side since you were a baby, and now you’re going to school so far away, it must be hard for you."

"It’s okay."

Su Ming comforted Zhao Ning patiently, without rushing to board the train.

Soon, most of the students had already checked in, and the announcement kept repeating the reminder,

"Ladies and gentlemen, the ultra-high-speed train S421 bound for Starlight City will soon close its ticket checking. All students are kindly requested to check in promptly to avoid delaying your journey..."

"Mother, it’s time to go or we’ll be late."

Su Ming listened to the announcement and said to Zhao Ning.

"Alright, you should hurry."

Zhao Ning managed a smile and said to Su Ming.

Su Ming turned to his father and said, "Father, let’s go."

"Okay, honey, we should leave now."

Su Yuan spoke awkwardly to Zhao Ning.

"Mhm."

Zhao Ning nodded.

"We really should go now."

Su Yuan said tentatively once more.

"Get going now!"

Zhao Ning immediately snapped at Su Yuan’s dawdling.

"Okay, okay, okay."

Su Yuan grimaced and followed Su Ming toward the ticket checkpoint.

Soon, the two of them passed through the checkpoint, and after walking a few steps forward, Su Ming turned back and waved goodbye to Zhao Ning.

Zhao Ning also waved back with teary eyes.

"Ah!"

Su Ming heaved a slight sigh and then walked toward the platform with Su Yuan.

It wasn’t long before Su Ming and Su Yuan arrived at the platform, where the high-speed train S421 was stopped on the tracks.

Each door was open, and at each door stood a woman in a work uniform, dignified and beautiful, full of grace, continuously calling out.

"Please, dear passengers, hurry onboard, the train will be closing its doors shortly."

...

"Son, hurry up!"

Su Yuan panted, carrying two suitcases.

"Father, let me help you."

Su Ming reached out and took his own suitcase.

"Okay."

Su Yuan had been carrying them all the way and was starting to struggle.

However, as the two approached the train door, Su Ming suddenly patted his pocket and said in surprise to Su Yuan,

"Father, my wallet is gone, my identity card and everything are inside."

"Ah, where did you lose it?"

"It seems to be over there; I just put my hand in my pocket."

Su Ming pointed toward a distant passageway.

"Wait here."

Su Yuan immediately set down his luggage and ran towards the passageway.

However, when Su Yuan frantically arrived at the passageway to search, he found nothing on the ground.

Seeing that he couldn’t find it and time was running short, Su Yuan hurried back toward the train.

At that moment, the train began to emit beeping warning sounds.

"Son! Don’t board yet, we’ll take the next one!"

Su Yuan quickly called out to Su Ming, who was standing at the door of the train.

However, Su Ming boarded the train with his luggage.

When Su Yuan rushed to the train door, it had already closed.

"Son!"

Su Yuan was taken aback and immediately went up to knock on the train door.

"Sir, you can’t do that. Moreover, the train is about to depart, please step back!" ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

The station staff on the scene hastily stopped Su Yuan.

"No, my son got on."

Su Yuan was utterly flustered for the moment.

Meanwhile, inside the train, Su Ming turned around, picked up his phone, and waved it to signal Su Yuan to answer the call.

After seeing this, Su Yuan hurriedly took out his mobile phone and answered Su Ming’s call.

"Son, why did you board, I haven’t gotten on yet!"

"Forget it, I see you don’t really want to go to Starlight City, so I might as well go by myself, rather than having the old man break your legs."

Su Ming spoke with a laugh.

"Son! I’m truly touched, you’re so considerate, always thinking of your father. But are you sure you’ll be okay on your own?"

Su Yuan was very happy but still a bit worried as he asked.

"Don’t worry, I’ll be fine."

"Then, do you have enough money?"

"Alright, stop worrying, I have more money than you now! The train is leaving, go back."

"Son, listen to me, when you arrive, look for Mr. Jiang Yu; he’ll meet you inside the station."

"Okay, bye."

After finishing, Su Ming hung up the phone and waved through the train door to Su Yuan.

At that time, the train began to move, slowly accelerating forward.

Su Yuan stood in sorrow at the spot, watching the train pull away.

"Hooray!"

Then he suddenly jumped up excitedly, happy as a child.

Indeed, everyone thought being sent to the Thirteenth District was a punishment, but in Su Yuan’s heart, he was extremely delighted.

The one who really wanted to return to Starlight City wasn’t Su Yuan but Zhao Ning.

Inside the train, Su Ming pushed his luggage towards his seat. The train he was on was particularly fast, so it would only take five hours to reach Starlight City.
