Chapter 444: 444, too much jealousy

“Wow, it’s the school belle!”

“And the news department belle too!”

“Two beautiful girls huh!”

“Who do you think is prettier?”

“I like that Su Wanwan, she looks so innocent!”

“I think the school belle is prettier!”

“If you ask me, they’re both gorgeous!”

“…”

“Silence!” The chalkboard eraser was harshly slapped on the desk, and the whole classroom fell silent.

The old professor pushed up his glasses, turning his gaze towards the door.

Mo Weiyi stood at the door, Su Wanwan stood beside her.

Both girls were young and beautiful, with flattering dress sense. The law department was male-dominant, and as first-years amidst adolescence, it’s no wonder that they were instantly mesmerised.

The old professor coughed twice, “Who are you two looking for?”

Mo Weiyi offered the professor a bright, sweet smile, “Hello professor, is Ling Zhizhou here?”

“Ling Zhizhou, they’re looking for you!” A boy nearby quickly shouted.

Ling Zhizhou lifted his head from the textbook, took a look and then stood up, “Sorry Mr. Wu, they are looking for me.”

He sat at the back of the classroom. Right at that moment, all eyes in the classroom were on him and people began to discuss.

“Wow, this guy is really lucky.”

“I heard he’s been getting close with the school belle recently.”

“No wonder she personally came to the classroom to find him!”

“Jealous!”

“…”

Amidst everyone’s curiosity, envy, and teasing gazes, Ling Zhizhou calmly made his way from his seat, then left the classroom.

**

Outside the classroom.

Mo Weiyi started with some embarrassment, “Ling Zhizhou, do you still have the English textbook I lent you last time?”

“Yeah, I do.” Ling Zhizhou nodded, “What’s up?”

Mo Weiyi felt even more embarrassed, “Can I have that textbook back now? Don’t worry, I already bought a new one for you and I’ll give it to you once it arrives.”

Ling Zhizhou’s gaze slightly flickered, but the warm smile still remained on his face, “You need it back, senior?”

Of course Mo Weiyi was too shy to tell the reason, so she just said, “I’m sorry.”

“It’s okay. But I don’t have English class today, so I didn’t bring it. I can bring it to you at lunch after I go back to the dorm, okay?”

“Sure.” Mo Weiyi finally breathed a sigh of relief. **

At noon.

In the small cafeteria on the second floor, after finishing their lunch, Su Wanwan was waiting with Mo Weiyi.

After almost twenty minutes, the person still didn’t show up, and she couldn’t help but complained, “It’s just a broken book, why are you messing around so much?”

Mo Weiyi explained everything thoroughly.

Su Wanwan was even more speechless, “Your husband is really too jealous, isn’t he?”

Just because he wrote his name on a no-longer-used textbook, was it necessary?

Mo Weiyi said, “How would I know he would found out? I put all my textbooks from the first and second year together, and he still managed to find it. If only I hadn’t gone home for dinner last night.”

This is really attracting trouble for herself.

Thankfully, Ling Zhizhou soon arrived and placed the English textbook on the table, “Here you go, senior.”

Mo Weiyi quickly thanked him, “Thank you.”

Upon opening the textbook, she froze. The page on the inside of the cover, with her name on it, had been torn off!

Ling Zhizhou hurriedly explained, “I’m sorry, senior, I forgot to tell you that I tore off the first page. Is that okay?”

Mo Weiyi’s little face scrunched up, nearly crying, “Why did you tear it?”

null”I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I thought this book was given to me, so I wanted to erase your name and write mine, but I didn’t notice the damage at the time. I could just die… I’m really sorry.”

Mo Weiyi: “…”

Actually, what Ling Zhizhou said was quite reasonable.

Her textbook was misplaced, and she returned this book to him, so since it was given to him and he had to use it everyday, it was completely understandable that he wanted to write his own name.

But…

Thinking about Xiao Yebai’s cold expression last night, and now seeing the torn textbook, she felt a storm brewing above her head.

Looking at Mo Weiyi’s expression, Ling Zhizhou asked, “Senior, did your husband write this name?”

Obviously, he did.

“I’m really sorry, I didn’t know.” Ling Zhizhou immediately apologized.

Mo Weiyi finally spoke, “It’s okay, it’s not your fault.”

It was all her fault.

She found out that the textbook was missing, and happened to be returning home, so she took this one from the study room and gave it to Ling Zhizhou.

Thinking about it now, she was too impulsive. She should have just bought a new one for him.

Now she wants the book back, only to find the name missing, and Xiaobai will probably be even angrier.

Ling Zhizhou touched his head, “Will your husband blame you? I can explain to him in person that I didn’t mean to do it.”

Upon hearing this…

“No need.” Mo Weiyi closed her textbook, “It’s not your fault.”

Ling Zhizhou seemed relieved, “You guys carry on eating. I need to return some books to the library.”

“Okay.”

Once Ling Zhizhou left, Mo Weiyi cried out, “Oh no, what should I do? Xiaobai is probably furious.”

Su Wanwan said, “Just explain to him.”

“You don’t understand!”

Yesterday he gave her the cold shoulder just because he found out she gave his book away. And now the book is ruined. Is it even worth returning it? He would probably just be angrier.

“You should sooth him, take the initiative.” Su Wanwan suggested, “Or, buy him a gift or something?”

“Okay.”

It could only be this way now.

**

There were no classes in the afternoon, so Su Wanwan accompanied her friend to buy the gift.

They went directly to the men’s section in the mall.

In an internationally renowned boutique, Mo Weiyi asked her, “Should I buy a coat, or a sweater?”

“Buy both.” Su Wanwan said and then told her, “You pick, I’m going upstairs to look around.”

“Okay.”

Su Wanwan quickly went upstairs.

Compared to the crowd downstairs, it was quieter here.

She glanced over a life-sized mannequin.

The model was dressed in a black three-piece suit and wore a deep blue men’s scarf around its neck.

It was very suitable for that old man Huo Jingshen.

She picked it up to look at it, and almost immediately let it go.

Holy shit, a scarf like this costs over nine thousand? Are they robbing people?

“Miss, do you like this scarf?” A saleswoman had seen her and enthusiastically greeted her.

She noticed the diamond ring on her finger. Such a large diamond ring must cost millions! Rich people!

“This scarf is one of our best sellers this year, it’s very warm and stylish…” The saleswoman enthusiastically introduced the product to Su Wanwan.

“I’ll take this scarf.” A familiar female voice suddenly interrupted her.

The saleswoman was stunned, and Su Wanwan also looked over.

It was Chu Jingyi.

Dressed in all designer labels, with a perfectly made-up face, she gave off a rather elegant and prosperous vibe.

The saleswoman glanced at her, then at Su Wanwan, and seemed a bit at a loss as to what to do, “Miss, this scarf is…”

“I don’t want it,” Su Wanwan said directly.

The saleswoman immediately looked relieved, smiling to Chu Jingyi, “If this is the case, then, Miss, I will pack this for you.”

“Wait a moment.” Chu Jingyi interrupted her again, then looked at Su Wanwan and sneered, “So, you like this scarf too? If you like it, I can give it to you. I can even… gift it to you.”

Su Wanwan laughed, “Miss Chu, you’re thinking too much. You’re ten years older than me. How could our tastes possibly match?”

The saleswoman’s face changed.

Chu Jingyi’s face twitched instantly.

Without waiting for her to respond, Su Wanwan turned around and left.

I hope you are angry!

Humph!

**

Downstairs, Mo Weiyi was indeed already carrying a mountain of shopping bags.

Su Wanwan walked over, “Weiyi, are you done shopping?”

“Yes.”

After paying, Mo Weiyi picked up one of the bags to carry, the rest were sent to Lishui Bay Villa by a delivery staff.

Su Wanwan noticed that the bag she picked up also contained a scarf.

“I decide to take it to him at his office personally.” Mo Weiyi smiled, “Xiaobai will definitely forgive me this way.”

Su Wanwan nodded noncommittally.

“Weiyi.” Chu Jingyi’s voice rang out again.

“Sister Jingyi, what a coincidence?” Mo Weiyi expressed surprise seeing her.

Chu Jingyi approached, carrying a boutique bag.

It must be that scarf… Su Wanwan thought to herself.

“Let’s sit downstairs and chat for a while.” Chu Jingyi suggested.

Su Wanwan didn’t want to go.

Fortunately, Mo Weiyi also declined, “I can’t, I have to go to the company to find Xiaobai.”

Chu Jingyi glanced at the pile of shopping bags and laughed sarcastically, “You bought Xiaobai so many things again?”

Mo Weiyi did not deny it.

Chu Jingyi continued to laugh, “You are still as constant as ten years ago. Men take advantage of you for your generosity. That’s why he doesn’t cherish what he has.”
