Chapter 1670: He Seemed Used to Being Troubled by Her

Qiao Chen frowned. “Shen Xin, you...”

“Alright, don’t bother about me. I just said it casually. There will definitely be a lot of people tonight, so let me give your present in advance.” Shen Xin took out a box from her bag and handed it to him. “This is my birthday gift. It’s not very expensive, I hope you don’t mind.”

She paused for a while and then said half-jokingly, “If you really dislike it, you can throw it away too. But don’t throw it away in front of me, alright? We’ve been classmates for a few years, consider it giving me some face.”

Qiao Chen pursed his lips and frowned at her.

Shen Xin didn’t care if he was willing to accept it. She stuffed the box into his hand and left the classroom quickly.

After she left, some of the surrounding classmates started discussing. “Shen Xin is really thick-skinned. Now that the Shen Family is in such a state, she’s still clinging onto Qiao Chen.”

“Of course. Qiao Chen is Young Master Mo now. The Shen Family is about to go bankrupt, she must want to find herself a sugar daddy. What better backing than Young Master Mo?”

“I really didn’t expect Qiao Chen to be the Young Master of the Mo Family. Didn’t they say that his family doesn’t have much money?”

“Even more girls must like Qiao Chen now. He’s so handsome, and he’s even the Young Master of the Mo Family. In the past, he was very cold and didn’t like anyone. Now, he probably has even higher standards. With his status, he definitely has to find someone of equal social status. If the Shen Family wasn’t in decline, Shen Xin and Qiao Chen’s family backgrounds would be quite compatible. But now, Shen Xin isn’t worthy of Qiao Chen.”

“Qiao Chen is actually the Young Master of the Mo Family? Sob, I can’t love him anymore.”

Qiao Chen listened to them discussing Shen Xin. They were all saying unpleasant things.

He didn’t look too good.

“Sigh.” The student beside him sighed and said, “Shen Xin is so pitiful now. Did you hear that? They’re all scolding her. In the past, they used to support Shen Xin in all sorts of ways. I really can’t stand their faces.”

“I can understand why Shen Xin is transferring schools now. If I was in her place, I wouldn’t be able to stay too.

“Sigh, I think Shen Xin really likes you. I know you don’t like her, but don’t throw away her gift. It’s her heart, after all. If you don’t like it, you can give it to me.”

Qiao Chen glared at the person beside him. “I didn’t say I didn’t want it. Also, I never said I hated Shen Xin.”

Why did everyone think that he hated Shen Xin?

Shen Xin had said the same thing before.

But he’d never hated her.

In the beginning, he felt that she was a little annoying, but he only felt that she caused trouble for him.

After that, he became used to being bothered by her.

He hadn’t always rejected her because he hated her.

He had never thought of dating at this age.

He was very clear about the difference in status between him and Shen Xin.

If he didn’t see hope from the start, he didn’t want to spend time and energy on it.

Hence, he deliberately treated her coldly.

He hoped to force her to retreat in this way.

Unexpectedly, others thought that he hated Shen Xin.
