Chapter 62 Ugly Duckling's Rise to Power: She Squeezes Out the School Beauty and Becomes a Coup

Mu Wanwan raised her hand to try to break free from his grasp, but he held it tightly. She stopped in her tracks. "It's all your fault. Why did you suddenly kiss me? Luckily, Auntie didn't see it, otherwise we would have been in deep trouble."

Her eyes were red, and she looked as aggrieved as a little rabbit. Ye Xingchen chuckled and couldn't help but stroke her face with his other hand, as if she were already his. "Wife, kissing you is something I can't help! And so what if my mother sees us? We're not innocent, are we? And sooner or later she'll find out that Mu Wanwan is her daughter-in-law, so there's no need to be shy."

She reached out and took Ye Xingchen's hand. "We just confirmed our relationship yesterday. Shouldn't we try dating first? Besides, I'm not your wife! We haven't registered our marriage! Don't call me your wife."

Ye Xingchen flicked her nose and smiled wickedly, "I stamped your seal yesterday, has it already disappeared today? No, we have to go back now and stamp it again! You have to be my wife."

Scenes from yesterday immediately flashed through her mind, and her body instantly felt hot. Her face and neck, uncooperatively, turned as red as if a boiler were on fire.

"Ye Xingchen, if you keep doing this, I'll never speak to you again." She turned her back to her, pretending to be angry, and crossed her arms, huffing and puffing.

"Honey, I was wrong, I was wrong! Let's go, we're going to be late for school."

The streets were bustling with pedestrians in the early morning. Sunlight shone on the two of them, elongating their shadows. Their home wasn't far from the school. Ye Xingchen held her hand the whole way, refusing to let go, and his smile never stopped.

Not far from the school, Mu Wanwan stopped first. She glanced around warily, and seeing that no one was paying attention to them, she quickly took her schoolbag off Ye Xingchen's shoulder and slung it over her shoulder. "I'm leaving first!"

Ye Xingchen's palm was empty. He raised his hand and looked at it. Her warmth was still there. He watched her slowly enter the school, and then he followed her into the school.

"Good morning, Wanwan!"

As soon as Yan Xiyue entered the classroom, she stopped cleaning and smiled.

Mu Wanwan paused for a moment, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes, and replied somewhat awkwardly, "Good morning!"

Yan Xiyue leaned the broom against the wall and took Mu Wanwan's schoolbag, saying, "Wanwan, you're injured! Let me help you!"

The sudden gesture of goodwill left Mu Wanwan stunned and bewildered, and Yan Xiyue took her schoolbag away with great enthusiasm.

After putting her schoolbag away, Yan Xiyue came over again, wanting to help her to her seat, but Mu Wanwan quickly waved her hand and refused, "Yan classmate, I can walk by myself, thank you!"

Yan Xiyue's smile froze, her eyes reddened, as if tears were about to fall at any moment.

"Wanwan! I just want to atone for my sins! Aren't you even giving me this small chance?"

Mu Wanwan was still soft-hearted and took the initiative to put her hand on Yan Xiyue's arm. Yan Xiyue then smiled and the two of them went to Mu Wanwan's seat like mistress and servant.

"Wanwan, wait for me!"

After Mu Wanwan sat down, Yan Xiyue quickly ran back to her seat, took out a stainless steel thermos from her bag, and placed it on Mu Wanwan's desk.

"Wanwan, this is a red date, donkey-hide gelatin and white fungus soup that I made myself. You fainted yesterday because of low blood sugar. Red dates and donkey-hide gelatin are very nourishing. Try it."

"Actually, you didn't have to do this." I didn't expect Yan Xiyue to be so honest and sincere. Her family wasn't well-off, and she even made donkey-hide gelatin, which was really expensive.

"Wanwan, from now on you'll be Yan Xiyue's best friend. If you need anything, just come to me. I'll do everything I can to help. You must drink the soup! It's my first time making it, so I don't know how it will taste! If you don't mind, I'll improve it next time if it's not good."

The pig circled the soup several times, its tail held high, and smelled it. "It smells so good! Master, are you really going to accept her and be friends with her?"

Mu Wanwan patted the pig's head, "Make good connections to increase companionship, reduce grudges and the road ahead will be wider!"

The pig looked at its owner with innocent, wide eyes, seemingly understanding but not quite. "What does that mean?"

"It means that if you treat others with kindness and friendliness, avoid making enemies and reducing conflicts, you'll naturally encounter fewer obstacles in the future. It's always better to have one more friend than one more enemy, don't you agree?"

Piggy would absolutely agree with this. Even though he was injured, it's worth it to turn enemies into friends.

Mu Wanwan unscrewed the lid, and the aroma of red dates wafted through the classroom, attracting the surrounding students.

After yesterday's events, everyone's attitude towards Mu Wanwan has clearly improved.

"Wow, it smells so good!"

Yan Xiyue proudly patted her chest and showed off to her classmates, "Of course! Red dates are a specialty of my hometown. Look how big and red they are, and how nutritious they are! Don't be tempted, these are all Wanwan's."

The students all teased Yan Xiyue for being biased.

Wanwan rarely smiled, and although her thick bangs covered her face, everyone couldn't help but be drawn to her smile.

When she first came in, she was so busy helping her with her schoolbag and leading her into the classroom that she didn't notice at all that the dark spots on Mu Wanwan's face were gone. Now, as if she had discovered a new continent, she exclaimed in surprise, "Wanwan, your face!"

Mu Wanwan quickly lowered her head, stopped smiling, and remained silent.

"I'm sorry, Wanwan, I didn't mean to be loud!"

Mu Wanwan shook her head, but everyone's attention was naturally drawn to her face.

Her face, which was originally covered with black spots, became smooth and silky, with skin so delicate it seemed like it could be broken with a touch. A boy couldn't resist raising his hand to pinch it.

"What are you doing! It's so noisy! This is a classroom, not a market! Nor is it a cafeteria!"

Ye Xingchen and Lin Jingya entered the classroom one after the other and saw many classmates chatting and laughing around Mu Wanwan.

Ye Xingchen's first reaction was that Mu Wanwan had been bullied again. He wanted to step forward but was pulled back by Lin Jingya. He turned around and glared at Lin Jingya, his eyes full of hostility.

Lin Jingya froze. She had never seen him stare at her like that before, and she felt a pang of unease.

His anger subsided only after confirming Mu Wanwan's safety, but when he saw the boy trying to reach out and touch her face, he erupted again, roaring loudly.

The onlookers quickly dispersed, leaving only Mu Wanwan and Yan Xiyue in their seats.

"Monitor!"

Ye Xingchen pushed Lin Jingya aside and strode up to Mu Wanwan, staring at her slightly flushed cheeks. Yan Xiyue quickly explained, "Class monitor, don't misunderstand, this is for..."

Ye Xingchen simply said, "I know!" Yan Xiyue barely managed to shut up, biting her lip as she moved closer to Mu Wanwan, protecting her behind her.
