A Star Reborn: The Queen's Return

The autumn leaves rustled in the wind as the trainees in the training camp chattered and laughed. At the sight of Xia Yingluo and Wei Lingnan, a few of them looked over and greeted them with smiles. Xia Yingluo was still moody and ignored them, but Wei Lingnan smiled and greeted them back, winning over many of them with his gentlemanly and elegant behavior.

“Have you heard? Wei Lingnan is Xia Yingluo’s official boyfriend; he has even met her parents.” A few of the trainees gossiped. “What Zhao Yixuan, those other messy rumors were all fake. Only Wei Lingnan is her prince charming. The two of them are already discussing marriage.”

“Really?” The trainees beside exclaimed. “Who on earth is this Wei Lingnan? He’s really skilled to be able to settle this Li family’s little princess.”

“Isn’t he? I’ve never heard of a rich person with the surname Wei. I can only think of Wei Shaoyin form Skyart Entertainment, but he’s not from a prestigious family. This Wei Lingnan is really lucky. Marrying Xia Yingluo si equal to fighting in the world for many years!” Sounds of exclamations and agreement sounded.

Xia Yingluo’s hearing was good and she heard all these discussions, but she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Wei Lingnan had really hidden himself too well. His was clearly a rich and prestigious family that was comparable to the Xia family, but he was so low-key that people thought he came from a powerless and poor background. He really had sinister motives. She would rather he be powerless and poor. Then, she would be able to use her power to kick him away and not have to bear any responsibility. Why would she have to endure his nagging and go drink coffee with him unwillingly?

Xia Yingluo was very resentful.

After walking a few steps, she bumped into Jiang Bilian and Zhu Zhu.

Jiang Bilian smiled at Xia Yingluo and greeted her. “Hey, Yingluo, where are you going? We have a gathering at night, are you coming?”

“No.” Xia Yingluo wasn’t interested. “You guys go to the gathering, I have some matters to attend to.” Then, she glared unhappily at Wei Lingnan.

Jiang Bilian discerned from her behavior that the two of them were probably going on a date, so she covered her mouth and giggled. “You have matters, I understand. Have fun, the two of you. Yingluo, your boyfriend is really handsome.” She had seen Wei Lingnan twice before, back when Xia Yingluo had been feeling uncomfortable in the dance practice room and they had refused to go up and help her. Wei Lingnan had come in and broken their wrists and left them an unforgettable lesson. Back then, everyone had hated this Wei Lingnan, but now, they had no choice but to compliment him.

In all honesty, Wei Lingnan was indeed handsome and was able to fight. It wasn’t bad to be able to get such a boyfriend.

Xia Yingluo wanted to cry again. She would rather be mistaken as Li Rui’s boyfriend. Why should she be connected to this pervert? “He’s not my boyfriend,” she said weakly.

Jiang Bilian didn’t say anything. Wei Lingnan was already smiling and saying to Jiang Bilian, “Her skin is thin and she’s shy. Hello, let me introduce myself officially. My name is Wei Lingnan and I’m her boyfriend. If anything happens to Yingluo, you can come and find me directly. Let’s exchange phone numbers.”

Then, he really exchanged numbers with Jiang Bilian and the others.

Xia Yingluo didn’t stop him. She only humph-ed a few times and turned her head the other way.

Jiang Bilian smiled and said, “Yingluo, what’s there to be shy about? We have all witnessed how well he treats you, it’s a blessing to have such a good boyfriend.”

Xia Yingluo said stiffly, “He’s really not. We’ll get going first.”

Jiang Bilian smiled again and thought she was just being shy. In their impressions, how was Wei Lingnan not her boyfriend? If he wasn’t her boyfriend, why would he rush into the dance studio to fight for her? If he wasn’t her boyfriend, why would he drive her into school occasionally with his black sports car? Why would he meet her parents? Why would he take a stroll in the school’s garden with him? Forget it, these were all indications of them being lovers. It was only unfortunate for Zhao Yixuan. Xia Yingluo had loved him so much back then, the one who should be marrying into her rich family should have been him. No wonder Zhao Yixuan blamed himself for having no insight and being blinded by greed. He had missed such a good marriage. Now was too late for regrets.

Jiang Bilian was elated and rejoiced over being able to redeem herself in time and be on friendly terms with Xia Yingluo. She must cherish it. Thus, she smiled and bid farewell to Xia Yingluo as per her wishes.

Xia Yingluo stomped out of the school garden. A black sports car was parked outside the school gates—Wei Lingnan’s. Wei Lingnan motioned for her to get in and said, “Why are you unhappy? Ten minutes and more have already passed, your anger should have already dissipated.” While talking, he started the car and drove towards the cafe they often went to.

Xia Yingluo tilted her head and asked him, “Why did you exchange phone numbers with Jiang Bilian and the rest?”

“Are you jealous?” Wei Lingnan chuckled.

Xia Yingluo was cold. “Even if all men on Earth died, I wouldn’t be jealous because of you.”

“Then why do you care that I got her phone number?” Wei Lingnan’s words just fell when the car bolted like a flying arrow without any warning. Xia Yingluo was not prepared and her forehead knocked against the windshield and swelled up.

“What are you doing?!” She was in so much pain that tears oozed and she held her forehead in pain, glaring furiously at him.

Wei Lingnan didn’t speak. He raced on the streets frighteningly and arrived at the cafe at lightning speed.

Xia Yingluo’s face turned pale. She sat on the passenger seat and didn’t return to her senses for a long time. She had thought that she was very bold, but every time Wei Lingnan fell into a craze and raced his car, she felt like she had taken a trip to hell. “Wei Lingnan, if you do this to me again, don’t blame me for being impolite!” She almost screamed.

Wei Lingnan looked down at her, his expression a little cold. “Don’t be so unbridled just because you’re Ah Luo. My patience has its limits.”

She was slightly stunned.

After a while, she reacted and realized that her sentence “Even if all men on Earth died, I wouldn’t be jealous because of you” had angered him. This pervert was so petty and revengeful, he was so annoying.

Xia Yingluo opened the door forcefully and walked out without looking back.

Wei Lingnan followed her into the cafe and ordered two coffees. Then, he put the antidote into her coffee. Xia Yingluo enjoyed the beverage before putting it down heavily. “I’ve finished it, goodbye.”

Wei Lingnan narrowed his eyes at her slightly. She was the only one who could drink coffee like it was wine.

“You’re leaving like that without a word of thanks?” His voice was a little dangerous.
