Marrying My Bestie's Ferocious Brother - He Calls Me His Baby! Chapter 230 - 229: This Scent Is the Same as That Fool’s!

ng Ting wore an expression of suitable regret and sincerity.

"Hello, Mr. Gu, madam."

She first greeted them politely.

Then slightly bowed.

"I am ng Ting from the student council."

"I heard that Student Sun Qian made a mistake, causing you a lot of troubles."

"On behalf of all the student council mbers, I specially ca to apologize to you."

Her words were flawless, her tone extrely sincere.

As if she truly felt guilty for her classmate’s mistake.

The sunflowers in her arms were golden and particularly dazzling in the sunlight.

"I hope you can, like this flower, grow towards the sun and forget those unpleasant things."

Saying this, she handed that large bouquet of flowers to Lin Wan Yi.

Her deanor was perfect.

Gu Yanshen didn’t even glance at the flowers.

"No need."

He coldly spat out three words, pulling Lin Wan Yi to bypass her and leave.

Not wanting to linger even a second longer.

Lin Wan Yi however, stood still.

She freed herself from Gu Yanshen’s grip, and instead approached.

"ng is too polite."

She smiled and reached out to take the heavy bouquet of sunflowers.

ng Ting’s smile beca more sincere on her face.

Gu Yanshen frowned.

Lin Wan Yi held the flower, naturally moving closer to ng Ting.

Not to sll the fragrance of the flowers.

But to lightly inhale from the area beside her neck.

A very special scent.

Elegant, with a slight, faint coolness.

It was the scent of lilies.

Very high-end, not the common cologne scent on the market.

Lin Wan Yi paused in her actions.

She rembered.

Yesterday in the library.

That crying, attempting to splash water on Gu Yanshen, Sun Qian.

She also had this scent on her.

Exactly the sa.

Sun Qian’s family background, Lin Wan Yi had heard ntioned in passing, an ordinary working family.

How could she afford such things available only at friendship stores, requiring foreign exchange voucher to buy?

Lin Wan Yi raised her eyes and looked at ng Ting.

The smile on her face didn’t change.

"ng, you sll really nice."

She seed to be chatting casually.

"Is it perfu? It’s very special."

ng Ting showed a hint of pride on her face.

Even though it was only for a mont, Lin Wan Yi still caught it.

"Madam has a sharp nose."

ng Ting candidly admitted.

"It was brought back by one of my father’s comrades from abroad, he said it’s very popular over there."

Her explanation was impeccable.

Lin Wan Yi nodded, holding the flowers, her smile deepening.

"What a coincidence."

She spoke casually.

"Yesterday, student Sun Qian also had that scent on her."

ng Ting’s smile froze.

Even if only for an instant, it was enough.

Lin Wan Yi seed completely oblivious to the other’s abnormality, continuing with that gentle tone.

"It seems you have a really good relationship."

"Such precious items, willing to share together."

These words fell like a small stone, gently hitting her heart.

ng Ting’s expression beca slightly unnatural for a mont.

She quickly composed herself, forcing a smile.

"Ah... that."

Her eyes showed so evasiveness.

"Sun Qian... she always said she envied my scent."

"A few days ago I just... let her spray a little bit."

"I didn’t expect madam could sll it from so far away, truly..."

She wanted to say "a sharp nose," but had already said that before.

Unexpectedly stuck for words.

Lin Wan Yi looked at her, not speaking.

Just calmly watching.

So much so that ng Ting felt uneasy."

"Well..."

ng Ting tried to regain control.

However, Lin Wan Yi suddenly shoved the bouquet of sunflowers back into her arms.

The movent was sowhat abrupt.

A few petals were knocked off.

ng Ting instinctively hugged them.

"Sorry, ng."

Lin Wan Yi’s voice remained gentle.

"I’m allergic to pollen and can’t sll this."

"These flowers are really beautiful, you should keep them yourself."

After speaking.

She didn’t glance at ng Ting again, turning to entwine her arm with Gu Yanshen’s.

"Let’s go ho."

"Alright."

Gu Yanshen replied deeply, guarding her, striding away.

Leaving ng Ting alone, holding the bouquet that had been returned, stunned.

The smile on her face gradually fading.

...

The two walked quite a distance.

The afternoon sunlight poured through the gaps in the leaves along the tree-lined path, scattering dappled spots.

Gu Yanshen held Lin Wan Yi’s hand firmly all the way.

"She seed suspicious?"

He suddenly asked.

He didn’t understand the complex intrigues between won, but he knew his wife.

Every reaction Lin Wan Yi had earlier, he saw and noted.

"Hmm."

Lin Wan Yi nodded.

The smile on her face had completely disappeared, replaced by calmness.

"That Sun Qian was just being used."

"A pawn?"

Gu Yanshen imdiately understood.

"Then this ng Ting is the one behind the chessboard."

Lin Wan Yi stopped walking and looked at him.

"Sun Qian can’t afford that kind of perfu."

"But ng Ting can."

"Moreover, when I returned the flower to her, she didn’t express any surprise, she seed relieved instead."

"It proves she ca over not to apologize sincerely, but to probe our reaction."

Gu Yanshen listened, his brow furrowing.

"What’s her goal?"

"You."

Lin Wan Yi answered without hesitation.

"Before Liu Quan was taken away, he glanced towards the end of the corridor."

"I guess what he looked at was this ng Ting."

"Sun Qian and Liu Quan being expelled, for her, was just losing two useless pawns."

Lin Wan Yi sighed slightly.

"She ca today, finding we hadn’t suspected her, just warning her not to make any more small moves."

"She certainly won’t let it go."

"This ti it’s about words, next ti..."

Lin Wan Yi didn’t continue.

Gu Yanshen tightened his grip on her hand.

"I’ll handle it."

"No."

Lin Wan Yi shook her head.

"Since she dares show up openly, it ans her background is tougher than Sun Qian and Liu Quan combined."

"Coming head-to-head isn’t good for you."

Gu Yanshen wanted to say sothing else.

Lin Wan Yi stood on tiptoe and lightly touched his lips.

"Don’t worry."

"Dealing with these smiling tigers, I have my ways."

...

In front of the National Defense University gates.

ng Ting still stood there.

Passersby pointed and talked about her.

She seed not to see them.

The expression on her face was unnervingly calm.

She looked down at the returned bouquet of sunflowers in her arms.

Golden, beautiful yet ironic.

She hugged them and walked step by step to the trash can at the gate.

Then.

She loosened her grip.

That expensive bouquet of sunflowers was ruthlessly thrown inside.

Petals scattered on the ground, staining with dirt.

ng Ting turned around.

Her originally bright and charming face now twisted and darkened with jealousy and anger.

"Ungrateful."

She squeezed out words between clenched teeth.

"Lin Wan Yi..."

"Since it’s like this, don’t bla ..."
