Chapter 176 A Shared Hobby

Finished

The shadow in her eyes vanished almost instantly, replaced by a playful smirk. “So, you really don’t have to worry.”

Jean clearly intended to handle this on her own.

Winston picked up on that immediately.

He couldn’t help but narrow his eyes slightly, his gaze lingering on the girl in front of him-

He wasn’t sure when it happened, but Jean had started to show a kind of maturity and courage far beyond her age.

Back when Dominic’s plane crashed, she had rushed to Northara without hesitation…

And now, even in the face of such serious slander, she could still smile and insist on handling it alone..

“This isn’t your problem, so don’t get involved. And don’t tell Mom or the others. I’ll figure it out.”

Jean gave Winston a wink.

Winston pressed his lips into a thin line. He didn’t say anything more – just gave her a cold little wave, signaling that she could go back.

The students watching nearby were stunned.

Wait–what?

Winston was just letting Jean go?

The infamous campus terror said a few words to Jean… and that was it?

Seriously?

So Winston had come all the way to the junior high wing just to talk to Jean?

Do they know each other?

Now that they thought about it… they both had the last name Ginger…

But that had to be a coincidence, right?

Rumor had it Jean was just some teacher’s illegitimate daughter. There was no way she had anything to do with the prestigious Ginger family!

While the crowd stood frozen in their mix of shock, disappointment, confusion, and disbelief, Jean walked back to the classroom door, expressionless.

She ignored the hostile stares completely and looked directly at Sofia.

“You… you okay?” Sofia stammered, still not quite sure what had just happened. “You and… Winston….?”

“Oh, I’ve seen him a few times before. We have a shared interest,” Jean said with a sly smile, clearly

The second she said it, the students around them widened their eyes even more, brows knitting up tight.

What the hell?!

She’s not joking?

Jean… actually knows Winston? And they share a hobby

Is she bluffing or delusional?

Even Sofia blinked in disbelief, her lips twitching as she stammered, “You guys… a shared interest…?”

Jean tilted her head but didn’t bother explaining.

They played the same game

that counted as a shared hobby, right?

Winston walked out of the academic building.

He chose a nearly empty path back to the high school wing one of those side routes most students didn’t take.

Too many people around and he’d attract attention.

He didn’t like being stared at.

As he walked, he pulled out his phone and tapped open a page he’d probably clicked a hundred times-

In the League of Legends app, Wingflare’s avatar was still gray.

That guy hadn’t been online in ages.

Had that guy really stopped playing League? 志

What the hell?!

She’s not joking?

Is she bluffing or delusional?
