60 What a Piece of Trash
“…”
The more Lu Qing scowled, the more agitated Lin Ci became.
“What do you mean, ‘An’an isn’t that kind of person, you misunderstood her, you don’t understand her’? Have you ever tried to understand Little Ning? Do you know what kind of person she is? And why would she want to understand someone who has occupied her position for 18 years and is even now interfering with her life?
“You might think you know very well whether she’s that kind of person, but you can never truly understand a person’s heart.
“And as a brother, you didn’t care how your real sister got injured or if she was seriously hurt, yet you defended the instigator right in front of her. What kind of person are you? What kind of brother are you?!
“If you had tried to understand her, then you should know that Little Ning is not someone who would misunderstand others.
“I thought you were some hardcore fan of Aurora and was even a little curious about you; so much for that. What a piece of trash.
“Next time, don’t just defend your foster sister in front of our Little Ning, understand the situation before you speak!”
With that, Lin Ci spun around and left in a huff. If she had continued, she would probably be angered to death by this person.
Lu Qing stood where he was and could not calm down for a long time. He turned to look at the café opposite.
Within its gla.s.s windows, Lu Ning was wearing her work clothes and taking orders for customers by the window.
…
Gu Zi and Gu Chen stood in the shadow of a distant tree.
“Investigate the girl.”
Gu Zi nodded with a serious expression.
And upstairs, in the teacher’s office a lone figure stood by the window, silently observing the school gate.

“Welcome…”
Lu Ning was standing behind the counter. When she heard the chimes that signaled the opening of the door, she subconsciously gave a greeting.
However, when she looked up, she was met with a familiar gaze.
“…”
The girl beside her could not contain herself and nudged her with an elbow, her face flushed. “Oh my G.o.d, he’s so handsome! I’ll go, let me go get his order!”
Lu Ning nodded and watched her go.
Besides, she did not really want to go. Her head still hurt and she could not be bothered to move.
At this time, there were not a lot of customers; Lu Ning leaned against the counter and rested for a while.
This café had a lot of customers because there were several schools nearby. It also served drinks like milk tea, fruit tea and so on—and they were also very tasty, so there were the most customers after school ended.
It was already past nine o’clock, and the crowd was slowly subsiding; it was almost time for her shift to end.
The other girl was called Xiaowen, and she worked here full-time. The boss was looking for a part-time employee since the girl who worked with her had recently left.
Xiaowen came back, pouting.
“What’s wrong?!”
“Handsome guys sure have strange temperaments. You go, I don’t want to serve him anymore.”
Lu Ning clapped her shoulder. “Fine.”
Then, she looked at the order list displayed on the computer.
She turned around and was about to prepare it when Xiaowen could not help but say, “I say that, but he’s still handsome, so handsome! Boohoo, with a man as handsome as him I can’t help but keep looking.”
Lu Ning let out a giggle, though her hands did not stop moving.
Xiaowen leaned over to look at her.
“You’re picking it up so fast. The girls last time always felt it was too much of a ha.s.sle and left in a couple days. You only just started, so how did you remember all of them already?”
Lu Ning did not say much and only said, “I have some experience with this.”
Xiaowen nodded. However, Lu Ning grabbed onto the counter as she suddenly wobbled; seeing this, she hurriedly asked, “Are you alright? Are you feeling unwell? Does it have anything to do with this?”
She was pointing at Lu Ning’s forehead.
“Yes, I’m still a little dizzy.”
