Chapter 82
s.p.a.ce and Rebirth: The Favored Genius Doctor and Businesswoman - chapter 82 - Acting Like a Good Kid (裝巧賣乖)
Qiao Hongye had a standard face that looked as if it belonged to a daughter of a humble family . Her eyebrows were gentle, unlike those sharp and thick eyebrows of Jing Yunzhao . She was not as tall as Jing Yunzhao and looked plumper than Jing Yunzhao but was still of an average size . Honestly speaking, she looked delicate and lovable .
It could be said that the reason why Qiao Hongye was so well-known in school was not because of her grades as the school’s number two and also not because of her outstanding looks, but because of her aura .
When she was quiet, she was gentle and pleasant . When she was happy, she was coy and cute . When she was mistreated, she was looked pitiful . She could always flirt with just a single look . She, of course, never lost her calm in front of others .
Of course, whenever Jing Yunzhao was alone with Qiao Hongye, Qiao Hongye’s elegant facade would be broken . Jing Yunzhao could never understand why this girl who had grown up with her would hate her so much .
She had never fought for any of the Qiao family’s things with Qiao Hongye .
Currently, the light in Qiao Hong’s eyes was soft . After she pulled Jing Yunzhao aside, she had on a scared and cautious expression, as if Jing Yunzhao was bullying her .
“
You need something?
”
Jing Yunzhao’s eyes were cold . It was just impossible for her to be warm towards Qiao Hongye .
Qiao Hongye bit her lip .
“
It’s really nothing… I just thought it was weird how jiejie came to school with Gan Jinchen…
”
She had seen Jing Yunzhao walking closely [

] with Su Chu before . She already had trouble understanding it back then . She did not know if Jing Yunzhao was trying to get with Gan Jinchen through that stupid girl Su Chu, or not .
[

](The raws wrote
“
走得近
”
which translates to
“
walking closely .
”
It can mean that they’re literally walking closely together (which they did before) but can also mean that they’re getting along very closely . I think it’s leaning more towards the latter in this case . )
Jing Yunzhao found it laughable and reached out to pull her arm back:
“
Whoever I go to school with is none of your business, right?
”
This world just has this many weird people .
Embarra.s.sment flashed through Qiao Hongye’s face but she then pouted,
“
Jie, aren’t I just worried about you? Are you two dating? [

] I heard that Gan Jinchen’s father is a doctor and his mother is a businesswoman . Isn’t his family pretty well off?
”
[

] (The raws had
“
談戀愛了
”
which can be translated to
“
in love .
”
I used
“
dating
”
because Qiao Hongye’s implying that Jing Yunzhao and Gan are both together . )
The main points were that Gan Jinchen was good-looking and also had good grades .
Qiao Hongye and Gan Jinchen naturally knew one another . There were only two people amongst the first years that were chosen to be part of the Student Union, and those two were Qiao Hongye and Gan Jinchen .
It was early in the morning . There was also traffic outside of the cla.s.sroom’s door . Qiao Hongye’s voice was pleasing to the ear, so it naturally attracted the attention of others . After hearing what she had said, many girls stopped in their tracks and came to join in on the commotion .
“
Jing Yunzhao, you’re dating Gan Jinchen?! Really?
”
A girl asked .
Jing Yunzhao’s face darkened .
“
Qiao Hongye, is your skull full of mud? I only happened to b.u.mp into Su Chu and Gan Jinchen on the way to school, but how come it turned into dating when it went through your mouth?
”
Jing Yunzhao said coldly .
Yet, Qiao Hongye looked as if she didn’t care, as if Jing Yunzhao’s words were a joke .
“
Aya, Jie-jie, it’s all my fault that my mouth slipped . Sorry! Okay, okay, I won’t say anything anymore,
”
Qiao Hongye purposely squinted her eyes .
After this was said, it was as if what she had said was the truth .
A situation like this was not a first . Acting like a good kid was something that Qiao Hongye was a pro at .
Suddenly, numerous images flashed through Jing Yunzhao’s mind . Her tightly closed lips slowly curved into a scoff . Looking at the hateful girl before her, she raised her hand and slapped her!
A
“
PA
”
sound resounded, stunned the surrounding people .
Qiao Hongye was also dumbfounded . Jing Yunzhao actually dared to hit her?
What right does she have to hit her? None! She was only a b.a.s.t.a.r.d, a mere b.a.s.t.a.r.d raised in her own house .
