Chapter 1697
"Oh, you're here. Good morning." Gary said in an awkward tone of voice.
Nicole looked at Gary's dodgy eyes, and in a monotonous voice, she replied, "Good morning."
Gary watched as Nicole walked into the classroom, after which he turned around and followed her to her seat. "How's your wound?"
Nicole looked at Gary, and upon noticing that he seemed to be genuinely worried about her, her attitude toward him mellowed a little. "Don't worry. It's much better now."
Seeing that Nicole actually spoke to him, Gary, for some reason, became cheerful.
"That's good. I heard that Raine got expelled as well. You can rest easy knowing that no one will come and find trouble with you from now on," he said.
Gary had heard about Raine. Perhaps he would have felt sorry for her back then. But when he heard that she had coerced someone else to drop the flower pot on Nicole, he lost all sympathy for her, in addition to feeling that she had gotten her just desserts.
Nicole raised her eyebrow as she looked at Gary. "Isn't she your girlfriend? Aren't you bothered by that?
Gary immediately furrowed his brows. "Who said she's my girlfriend?"
Although he had never told Nicole about this, he had never actually considered Raine to be his girlfriend at all.
"You're not? The whole school thought that you were a couple." Nicole raised a brow with surprise.
After all, the main reason as to why Raine had always given Nicole a hard time was because of Gary.
Hearing that, he instantly retorted, "That's what they think. It has nothing to do with me."
Nicole could not help herself from shooting Gary a glance. She had an inexplicable feeling that he looked a lot less unpleasant today.
'Perhaps the reason I hated him before was partly due to Raine, I guess.'
Not wanting to talk about Raine, Gary said. "After class, the participants of the computer competition will be meeting at the lecture hall. Should we go there together?"
"Okay." Nicole casually nodded.
