Old Soul can't relate!

Yan Shu was still sleeping when the class ended.

She was playing with a shih tzu happily, laughing and chasing around each other in her dream when she was awaken by some noise in her surroundings.

" Do you think she will be one of those cold, quiet genius types? "

" Nah, I think she will be quite cheerful."

" Her skin is so flawless and fair!!"

" Wait... She is wearing the Jimmy Choo latest addition flats. I heard they only released 20 models of this product. I wanted to buy it but its too costly for me."

"But her dress doesnt have any brand."

"Yeah... but her backpack is from LV."

" Damn, she must be quite wealthy."

"But her name doesn't ring any bell. Maybe she is a nouveau riche."

Yan Shu heard all of the wild guesses they were making on her.

She slowly lifted her head and just smiled at them.

As soon as they saw her waking up the girls immediately shut up. But when they saw her smiling they were stunned.

" I wish I was a boy. I would've woed you,oh lord." Sheng Chen bellowed as soon as she saw her new classmate smile.

"Sister, are you interested in girls like me?" Another girl pouted putting her head on Yan Shu's desk.

'What's going on? ' Yan Shu was dumbfounded. It was okay to make guesses about her but proposing openly!!

" Your lips are so glossy. They must taste like candies."

"You have such long eyelashes and here I am making do with fake ones."

"Can I touch your cheeks?"

'Is this some kind of trend? Being shameless? ' Yan Shu had come along all types of comments and praises in her previous life but she was an actress back then and they were her fans. But these girls, they just saw her for the first time and they are already trying to harass her.

'Sigh.. this old soul can't relate to you guys.' She sighed inwardly.

" What are you guys talking about? You all are scaring her.." Just as Yan Shu was wondering what should she say, another girl walked up to her unloading the crowd. She carried a charming aura and her gentle smile was so gorgeous that Yan Shu could not help but keep staring at her.

"Qiuqiu, it's nothing. We just came to get to know her. We are not bullying her. Are we?" Xin Bai retorted and threw Yan Shu a side glance indicating her to speak.

"Yeah,yeah. I know." Then the girl stretched out her hand to Yan Shu and continued, " Hello, I am Li Qiuqiu,the class representative. Nice to meet you. If you have any questions or need any help or having any problems you can come find me."

"Well see about that." Yan Shu was not much interested. She did not need anyone to stand up for her anyway.

" Are you new in the city? " someone asked.

" No." Yan Shu yawned.

The girls were stuck in a awkward situation. They actually came to get to know about her but she seemed to have no interest and whatsoever making them feel embarrassed for surrounding her like an animal in a zoo.

Just as they were thinking whether to go back to their seats or continue striking conversation with her , someone shouted, " The teacher is coming." And with that everyone got back to their seats.

....

During the lunch period, Yan Shu was permitted to leave early as requested by her grandfather. She took the permit notice from the Director's office and headed for the school entrance.

" Wow, who is she? She is so beautiful. How come I've never seen her in school before?"

"It must be the new student of grade two class A who just got admitted today."

" No wonder."

As it was the lunch break, all the students were outside their classrooms. Being the new student she became the center of attention as she walked past the halls. She ignored all the chatterings around her and waited patiently infront of the gate.

A genesis stopped in front of her and she hopped in the passenger seat.

" How was school?" Su Jiacheng asked her while helping her out with putting on her seatbelt.

" Not bad." Yan Shu said nonchalantly while Su Jiacheng started the car.

She leaned on the seat and was about to put on her earphones when she saw Su Jiacheng's darting eyes through the front mirror.

"Is there anything you want to say?" She furrowed her brows and turned to look at him.

"Let's talk while eating." Su Jiacheng nodded. He knew he could not hide anything from her instead he was surprised that she actually noticed him.

They reached to the Emerald Pearls, a five star renowned restaurant owned by the Su's. They went to the VIP private room reserved exclusively for Su family members.

The foods were served not long after they took their seats and soon they dugged in.

" Ranran." Su Jiacheng put down his chopsticks and looked at his sister who was eating like she has been hungry since birth.

" Yes, brother." Sensing his seriousness, she also put down her chopsticks unwillingly and straightened up.

" Do you like Junyan?" He has always been displeased with the marriage fixed by their family. One was his sister whom he loves the most while the other was his close brother since childhood for whom he cared a lot. He did not want this matter to be the nightmare in their coming future hence, he needed to solve it for them before it was too late.

" What do you think?" Yan Shu was also curious about this matter. Although she had seen Su Mo Jiaran's memories of Si Junyan where she had seen them laughing together and playing around, Su Mo Jiaran being clingy to Si Junyan but she was not sure if she loves him. After all, she was not her and cannot feel her emotions.

" You two were close before but that was a long time ago. Over the years, you havent met each other and you both have changed alot since then. I don't think your feelings for each other are on that path at present." The year Si Junyan left, his uncle and aunt died making his cousin sister miserable for a long time. And judging from her current personality he was firm that they did not have anything for each other.

" I am actually just waiting for my 18th birthday to invalidate the agreement." Yan Shu also thought this way and hence she made the decision for Su Mo Jiaran. She was still not sure of what the future holds but, she did not want this pretty timid girl to fall into that pervert's den.

" That's good. I hope it stays that way." Su Jiacheng felt relieved with her confirmation. Yan Shu looked at him curiously then heard him continue, " Actually , he already has someone he likes. " He decided to spill it out so that his sister will be more aware whenever she is with him from next time onwards.

They chatted for sometime before leaving the place.

Ever since, Yan Shu heard Si Junyan having a lover she somewhat started to feel sour. She put on a gloomy face all the way to home. Fortunately, Su Jiacheng was too focused on driving due to the rush hour to notice her expression.

Yan Shu kept thinking about the day she bumped onto him on the hospital and the cemetery. She could not help but to think about his connections to her and who his lover be.

'No, he has got nothing to do with me.' She repeated inwardly.

As she kept thinking deeper, her mind felt gloomier, so she kept reminding her mind to stop thinking about him and turned on the music in a high volume on the earphones she was wearing and closed her eyes. She fell asleep and did not wake up until they reached home.
