Rebirth of a Fashionista: This Life Is Soo Last Season

Chapter 40 - Explanation

The lifeguard performed emergency CPR on Ning Xiaoruan. Fortunately, he hadn't been underwater for too long, so he soon coughed up water and woke up.

"He's awake!"

Sheng Jiaoyang was finally relieved. She gently caressed Xiong Zi's head to conceal her nervousness.

After waking up, Ning Xiaoruan saw himself surrounded by so many people, and he suddenly felt uncomfortable. He was a gentleman, so how could he expose his most embarrassing appearance to so many people. This was losing too much of his image!

"Where's that damnable girl, Xu Jiaojiao?" Most importantly he couldn't see that wicked girl who'd caused him to fall into the water. Shouldn't that bad girl be on his side to keep watch over him?

Everyone immediately stepped aside and opened a path, revealing a person behind them who was calmly hugging a dog.

At this time, she still had the free time to play with a dog? So, he wasn't as good as a dog...putooie! Ning Xiaoruan was furious.

"Hey, look!" someone shouted as they saw a luxury yacht approaching.

The yacht entered a range of 50 meters. No one on the boat was blind, so they naturally saw it too.

Ning Xiaoruan, who was stewing in anger, abruptly started quivering all over once he saw the yacht. How could he bother himself with getting angry? Currently, he only wished to find a place to hide. He'd caused such an embarrassing situation! If it was merely seen by his cousin, it wasn't too bad. However, since his cousin had seen it, it meant that his parents would find out. If that happened, they would definitely ask his cousin to be stricter with him...

He could already foresee how pitiful his future would be.

It was all that stinky girl's fault!

Ning Xiaoruan turned to look at her with hate-filled eyes, but at that instant, he was struck dumb. Where was she? Where had the girl who'd moments earlier been calmly hugging Xiong Zi go?

"Ning Xiaoruan." A devil-like voice reached his ears.

Ning Xiaoruan immediately stood up, purposely ignoring the expressions of the people around him. What he most wanted now was to return to Italy quickly. There, he was known as a handsome gentleman called Peter Ning, not a damned Ning Xiaoruan!

"Have you finished writing down your plan?" Shen Zhining was relaxing on a chair as he looked over at the sorry figure of his cousin.

Ning Xiaoruan shook his head. He subconsciously wanted to push the frame of his glasses higher on the bridge of his nose, only to find that his glasses had disappeared. He didn't need to think about it to know that they must've been lost in the ocean.

"So, why are you here?" Shen Zhining's brows rose ever slightly. "Are you here to greet me?"

Ning Xiaoruan turned to look at Jing Weinan, who was standing beside his cousin, and tried to use his eyes to plead for help. He just needed Jing Weinan to say something good, anything good, but he was ignored.

In regards to such a spineless cousin, Shen Zhining's patience had been exhausted. He lifted his hand towards the german shepherd that was wagging its tail. "Xiong Zi, come here."

Upon hearing the command, Xiong Zi instantly jumped across the gap between the two yachts and excitedly rushed to its master's side. The gap was nearly one meter wide!

Shen Zhining leaned forward and rubbed Xiong Zi's head. It was better to raise a dog than a cousin.

"Tell me, how come you fell into the water?" No matter how rotten his cousin was, he was still one of his people. Moreover, Ning Xiaoruan could barely swim, so he wouldn't just jump into the water himself. Those who dared to bully him would have to see if he agreed or not!
