They had already said so much. Xie Ying, thinking that since there was a way out, she might as well give way. She could also save a large sum of money and use it as a dowry for Cheng Ling in the future.

“Since you’ve already said so, then we…”

Cheng Ling interrupted Xie Ying’s words. “It’s fine if you want us to continue living here, you apologize to us.”

Xie Ying was starting to get anxious again. It was not easy to see a chance to continue living here. Cheng Ling’s words might anger Xie Wan and Cheng Ming and this would not be easy to handle!

“Ling Ling, it’s enough. Besides, they might want to take the house back,” Xie Ying whispered in Cheng Ling’s ear.

Unexpectedly, Xie Wan really opened her mouth in the next second.

Although she was shy, she did say “I’m sorry”.

This shocked Xie Ying. She couldn’t figure out how Xie Wan’s attitude could change so much in one day.

“I’ve said it. Is that okay now?”

“Yes… It’s okay. Grandma, since they came to apologize to us personally and hope that we can stay here, we’ll just stay here reluctantly.”

After saying that, he pulled Xie Ying, who was still in a daze, and left, leaving Xie Wan gnashing her teeth.

The following few days passed peacefully. The construction of Lu Qi’s house started very quickly, and the workers only worked during the day when Cheng Ling and Xie Ying went to work. They did not disturb their rest at all.

Cheng Ling could not help but sigh at Lu Qi’s thoughtfulness.

Since the last time, they had not contacted each other for three to four days. Lu Qi seemed to be really busy, and only Lu Dong would come to check on the progress of the house from time to time.

And on and off without any reason he would also ask Cheng Ling if she needed any help.

Other than that, nothing strange happened. The month of August slipped away quietly, and the day of the new semester arrived unknowingly.

The new semester of the third year of high school would be divided into new classes. Cheng Ling and Cheng Xiao were studying in the same high school — Yuya First High School.

This school was the best high school in the west of the city. When they were taking the school examination, Cheng Ling inexplicably passed, which made Xie Ying happy for a long time. The Cheng family members all said that it was because of luck that Cheng Ling was able to get such a score in the school examination.

Of course, it was understandable that they had such thoughts.

Cheng Ling’s junior high school was a very lousy school. Only a few people could get into an ordinary high school every year, let alone get into Yuya First High School. That was something worth bragging about for several years. Until now, Cheng Ling’s photo was still posted on the praise column of the junior high school.

After entering Yuya First High School, Cheng Ling’s results returned to the previous low scores.

A year ago, after the Cheng family found Cheng Xiao, they directly bribed their connections and let Cheng Xiao enter Yuya First High School. Cheng Xiao’s results did not disappoint them, and she had always been among the best.

On the day of school, Cheng Ling randomly ate some breakfast and went to the field to look at the newly planted cucumbers and other medicinal herbs a few days ago. She plowed the soil then only went to school.

Although Cheng Ling and Cheng Xiao lived close to each other and their destination was the same, Cheng Xiao was sent to school by the driver, while Cheng Ling rode her bike, which took about half an hour.

As usual, when she passed by the small park, Cheng Ling used to go inside and take a look at the growth of the plants in the small park. But today, she found something different.

A tall boy wearing the same school uniform as hers was grabbing the collar of another yellow-haired boy. It seemed like he was going to punch him.

Cheng Ling frowned, “You’re school bullying here?”

The tall boy who was about to hit the boy paused and turned to look for the source of the sound. As this moment, the yellow-haired boy who was grabbed by him took the opportunity to quickly run away like a rabbit.

…

“Who told you to mind other’s business?”

Cheng Ling shrugged. “I didn’t do anything. You were the one who didn’t catch him!”

The boy, “I…”

Cheng Ling, “Alright, it’s your fault. You’re going to be late! I’m leaving first!”

After saying that, she ran away as fast as she could.

In Yuya First High School…

“Xiao Xiao, look at the class placement this time. You’ll definitely be in the top three again!”

There were opening ceremony and the class placement in the morning. The results of the class placement exams at the end of last semester had all been posted on the bulletin board. The class placement this time would also be determined based on this result.

The front of the bulletin board was bustling with students wearing blue and white school uniforms.

Cheng Xiao held her best friend Li Kui’s hand and walked to the front of the bulletin board.

“Hey, isn’t this Cheng Xiao from class one? I heard from my mom that she met Professor Wu! Even the head of the Lu family also praised her!”
