Chapter 639 — Tang Zhi's Sense of Crisis
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"The final result isn't out yet, is it? Maybe there's still a way..." Even as he said it, Feng Tianlong had little confidence. In truth he had long expected this round to turn out much like all the others; it was only that until the final verdict came, he could not quite give up hope.
"So boring!" Feng Xiaoxiao flopped back onto the bed and went on texting Wei Zhao.
Wei Zhao sent Feng Xiaoxiao a few more messages, but then class began, so he closed his phone and put it in his desk—and Feng Xiaoxiao's messages sank like stones into the sea! She was furious. Fine, Wei Zhao, you can't even be bothered to text me?
"Yao-yao, from my observations, Arrow Brand Brother came with Tang Zhi today!" Shen Yushu was once again exercising her spy skills.
"Oh." Gu Mengyao responded faintly. "And what does that have to do with us? Leave him alone."
"But aren't you going to pursue Arrow Brand Brother? You've already thrown down the gauntlet to Tang Zhi. If we don't make a move, Tang Zhi will think we're afraid and have beaten a retreat!" Shen Yushu needled her.
"Let her think whatever she likes." Gu Mengyao was not so easily taken in. She had long since seen through Shen Yushu's little tricks; only the likes of Zhong Yongliang and An Liwen would ever fall for them.
"Oh..." Shen Yushu was rather deflated. Seeing that no matter what she said, Sister Yao remained unmoved, she had no choice but to give up.
Gu Mengyao had been listening to the lecture with full attention, but Shen Yushu's words had left her mind in a tangle. Though she had turned down Shen Yushu's suggestion, she simply could not settle down inside... The class ended while she was still in a daze, and Gu Mengyao did not even realize it, her eyes still fixed on the textbook before her.
"Sister Yao?" Shen Yushu waved a hand in front of Gu Mengyao's face.
"What?" Gu Mengyao started in fright, came back to herself, and shot Shen Yushu a glare. "Are you trying to scare me to death?"
"Sister Yao, are you yearning for love?" Shen Yushu looked at Gu Mengyao curiously.
"Yearning for love? What nonsense is that?" Gu Mengyao's heart tightened, and she stared at Shen Yushu with a fierce look that belied her inward panic.
"They say on TV that when a woman often stares off into space, it means she's yearning for love — just like the way you looked a moment ago, Sister Yao," Shen Yushu said.
"Whatever the TV says, you believe? Then why don't you believe in TV shopping too?" Gu Mengyao would never admit that she was yearning for love, because she did not think she would ever die of such a thing — at most she was furious at Wei Zhao for fooling around with women while he was supposed to be working!
If he had fooled around with little Shu, that might have been forgivable, but no — he had to go after Tang Zhi, and the very thought of it made Gu Mengyao angry.
"Oh... then what were you doing just now, Sister Yao?" Shen Yushu nodded and asked again.
"Nothing at all. I was meditating — is that not allowed?!" With that, Gu Mengyao turned her head away and ignored Shen Yushu.
