Chapter 1023: You Must Be Jealous

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“I don’t hear any concern,” Feng Yanze said sarcastically. “It’s good you’re not kicking me while I’m down. I’ve never seen you so kind before.” When this guy graduated, the professors at the school almost bought firecrackers to celebrate.

The more outstanding someone was in the industry, the more irritating they could be. And with him, people often had no choice but to admit their bad luck.

“I’m not concerned about you. Of course, you can’t tell.”

This sentence, annoyingly, made sense.

Feng Yanze sneered and hung up.

Soon, the phone rang again.

After answering, he heard Zhou Hengguang’s accusation, “You hung up on me.”

“You don’t care about me. Why should I listen?”

“Yan Ze, are you jealous?” Zhou Hengguang teased.

Feng Yanze moved the phone away from his ear as goosebumps rose on his skin. “What do you think?”

“I think you must be jealous.”

“Let me guess why you called.” Feng Yanze pointed out Zhou Hengguang’s motive and analyzed it carefully.

“Ah Guang, you probably don’t realize what kind of person you are. You don’t do meaningless things. You called me out of the blue, so it’s not for me. Is it because of your brother’s sister-in-law? Su Jun? That’s not your style. Even though Su Wen is your sister-in-law, don’t you think you’re being a bit too enthusiastic?”

At this point, a thought crossed Feng Yanze’s mind. Something flashed in his deep, melancholic eyes, softening his handsome yet cold face a little.

“Ah Guang, don’t tell me you’ve fallen for your brother’s sister-in-law?” Thinking of Zhou Hengguang’s six sisters-in-law, Feng Yanze teased, “Ah Guang, does your big brother know? Will he beat you to death if he finds out?”

“Don’t talk nonsense. It’s not true,” Zhou Hengguang denied without hesitation.

“You are such a b*stard. If he finds out, the consequences will be very interesting,” Feng Yanze said, flicking his fingers rhythmically on his knee—a habit he indulged in only when he was in a good mood.

“Yan Ze you can eat whatever he wants, but you can’t say whatever you want,” Zhou Hengguang retorted. He had already considered the consequences, so he wasn’t afraid, but he was still unhappy that his friend had figured him out.

“You know very well whether I’m talking nonsense or not.” Feng Yanze’s sharp reasoning and credentials as a psychology professor weren’t to be taken lightly. “Ah Guang, this isn’t right. I’ve told you before.”

As a good friend, Feng Yanze knew the obsessions deep in Zhou Hengguang’s heart. Their friendship started when Zhou Hengguang consulted Feng Yanze about psychological issues. Over time, their similar personalities brought them closer.

They were the same kind of people.

“Stop! Don’t say any more.” Zhou Hengguang interrupted, not wanting him to continue his analysis. “You were wrong earlier. I’m not looking for you this time. I just missed you.”

Feng Yanze pursed his thin lips, barely tolerating his friend’s hypocrisy.

“Do you know Su Jun?”

“Everyone in the school knows about her now. After all, she’s the daughter of Professor Su.” Feng Yanze’s lips twitched.

“You do know.” Zhou Hengguang changed the topic. “You don’t know about my sister-in-law.”

Zhou Hengguang briefly explained the situation, concluding, “The Song family is very powerful. I heard that the 57th Research Institute, which Professor Su used to lead, invited Su Jun to join. The person behind the 57th Research Institute is Song Jinyan. For Su Jun’s safety, I don’t want her to join.” he said.
