Chapter 1952 — A Strong Alliance
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Probably just some admirer of Ying Ziyu making up an excuse," the student muttered with a shake of his head, and thought no more of it.
Ying Ziyu and Chen Xi were school beauties, but they were far, far beyond the reach of ordinary boys like him — visible from afar, but never to be touched.
Wei Zhao walked into the classroom building as though he had done it a thousand times and soon found the classroom of Class Five. But there, gathered in a ring at the classroom door, was a crowd — and a boy was holding a huge bouquet of fresh flowers, apparently making a public confession of love!
"Ziyu, just say yes. My feelings for you are real, I swear!" The boy's mouth was pouring out cloying words of romance.
Wei Zhao recognized him, though — who else could it be but Zou Ruoming? The fellow had actually come to declare his love to Ying Ziyu, and at that Wei Zhao's brow furrowed at once. How was it that in the few days he had been gone, the Zou brothers had started strutting about again?
Hadn't he told Zou Ruoguang to look after Ying Ziyu? So how was it that his younger brother Zou Ruoming had come in person to pester her? Did this family have a death wish?
From the look of it, though, Zou Ruoming had not yet done anything out of line, so Wei Zhao decided to watch a while longer.
Ying Ziyu had been at her wit's end these past few days. Zou Ruoming had written her love letters before, and she had tossed them away without a glance. He had asked her out to dinner several times, and she had refused. But who would have thought that today Zou Ruoming would show up with a huge bouquet of flowers blocking the classroom door!
"Zou Ruoming, are you ever going to be done? Didn't I tell you my brother is very powerful? If you pester me again, I'll have him break your third leg!" Ying Ziyu stood with her hands on her hips, glaring furiously at Zou Ruoming.
The onlooking students clicked their tongues in secret admiration. As expected of the saucy school beauty — so fierce! One sentence, and she was ready to break a man's third leg!
"Heh heh, my brother's pretty powerful too. That's even better — the two of us would be a strong alliance!" Zou Ruoming said with a grin.
Ying Ziyu frowned. It seemed that unless she used stronger medicine, this fellow would never let it go. So she had no choice but to say: "You know Brother Guang, the leader of the North District?"
"Brother Guang, the leader of the North District? Isn't that my brother? Heh heh, his name is Zou Ruoguang, mine is Zou Ruoming — your brother wouldn't happen to be my brother, would he?" Zou Ruoming chuckled to himself. Could it be that Ying Ziyu had taken his brother as a sworn brother? Even better — once they were together, they would be family twice over!
It was not that Zou Ruoguang had grown bold because Wei Zhao was away; it was simply that Wei Zhao had never imagined Zou Ruoming and Ying Ziyu could have any dealings at all. How could he have known that Ying Ziyu would come to First High School?
