Arriving at Wu Qiangwei's house, Song Guanchao made a cup of honey water and handed it to her.
"Thanks."
She took it and said thank you.
That one thank you made Song Guanchao feel a sense of unfamiliarity.
He didn't ask about the man just now and said, "I had so interaction with Shu Xue tonight. This young lady seems quite nice. You could let her try working as a secretary for a while first."
"Okay." Wu Qiangwei looked at the glass jar beside her, sowhat absent-minded.
Seeing her in this state, Song Guanchao slowly stood up, "I'm heading back."
"Okay."
As he walked to the door, Wu Qiangwei suddenly snapped back to her senses, realizing he was leaving.
"Take it slow on the way."
Song Guanchao forced a slight smile, nodded, and pushed the door open to leave.
Coming down from upstairs, just as Song Guanchao opened the car door, Wu Ming suddenly ca over.
Song Guanchao wasn't in a hurry to get in the car. This guy rarely approached him voluntarily; he clearly had sothing to say.
He tossed a cigarette over without asking, waiting for him to speak.
Wu Ming said speechlessly, "Can't you just ask?"
Song Guanchao chuckled. This kid really couldn't keep a secret.
"Looking for for sothing?"
"Do you know who that man was just now?"
"Your sister's blind date?"
"Nonsense! He wishes!"
Wu Ming curled his lip, very disdainful.
Song Guanchao was genuinely curious, "Then who is he?"
"Guess."
"..." Song Guanchao's mouth twitched. He rubbed his hands, producing a crackling sound.
Wu Ming reflexively took two steps back and hastily said, "His na is Fan Jie, my sister's college classmate."
College classmate...
This keyword sparked a conjecture in Song Guanchao's mind, "First love?"
"Not quite."
Wu Ming corrected, "Strictly speaking, my sister had a secret crush on him."
"Huh?"
Song Guanchao was taken aback.
He couldn't really associate Wu Qiangwei with having a secret crush.
Wu Qiangwei was quite assertive, with her own ideas, and almost nothing could influence her decisions.
That such an independent woman would secretly be in love with soone?
"Surprised?"
Wu Ming said, "My sister didn't instantly beco the Deputy Secretary and Mayor, you know. Back in school, she was very naive, and she wore glasses, had braces, had a mushroom haircut, and was crazy about watching Korean dramas. The kind with cliche plotlines where the female lead has a terminal illness, and her true love is her brother. It was like watching brainless Korean dramas ruined her mind."
Song Guanchao opened his mouth wide in astonishnt and couldn't help but glance at the balcony on the second floor.
He didn't expect Wu Qiangwei to have such a past.
He couldn't help but imagine Wu Qiangwei with a mushroom haircut, wearing glasses and braces, sitting in front of the TV watching cheesy Korean dramas...
The image was so vivid that Song Guanchao felt embarrassed just thinking about it.
"And then? What's the relationship between that Fan Jie and your sister exactly?"
"Want to know?" Wu Ming deliberately teased, patting his stomach, "I'm a bit hungry."
"..."
This kid, really trying to pull this trick on ?
"You're done for."
Song Guanchao suddenly said.
Wu Ming puzzled, "What?"
"I said, you're done for. You told your sister's embarrassing past, and after I finish my cigarette, I'll go upstairs and tell your sister."
"You..." Wu Ming's eye twitched violently, "Is this guy even human!"
How can he be so shaless!
I kindly told you all this, and you turn around planning to report to my sister?
How can soone be so treacherous!
Song Guanchao was just joking. Flicking his cigarette, he said, "I'm not familiar with the Provincial City. You take the lead, find a barbecue stall."
"That's more like it."
Wu Ming snorted, turned, and got in the car.
Half an hour later, the two arrived at the food street near the college town.
Sitting at a table set up outside a barbecue shop.
With skewers on the table, Wu Ming began to recount.
Back then, Fan Jie had ford a band in school and had even been one of the top ten campus singers.
At the ti, he was the most dazzling boy in school, with countless admirers.
But he never got ambiguous with any girl.
Thus, Wu Qiangwei developed this delusion: maybe he could like .
Upon hearing this, Song Guanchao nodded in agreent, "The three great delusions of life."
Then he added, "By the way, did your sister beco enlightened so late? Even if she was going to pursue soone, at least she should have dressed herself up a bit, right?"
Wu Ming didn't speak, took a bite of a skewer, and directly pulled out his phone to find a picture.
In the picture was Wu Qiangwei during her college days.
Wide-leg jeans, an out-of-style checkered shirt, round glasses, and a strawberry hair clip on her mushroom haircut.
"This is dressed up?"
"Yes."
"..."
Song Guanchao was speechless.
Honestly, though her clothing was way outdated, you could barely see that she had a nice face shape and delicate features back in college.
She was about 165 cm tall at the ti, not exactly short.
She simply didn't know how to dress, and her hairstyle was outdated.
The most crucial part was that her youthful vibe made it difficult for n to feel a physical attraction.
n as a species, in their youth, prefer mature won, and once they enter society, they beco oppositely, starting to like 18-year-old girls.
So, Wu Qiangwei's type was indeed not popular during college days.
"Back then, my sister heard that if you fold a thousand paper cranes and give them to soone, they would be touched and like you. Yes, you guessed right, the paper cranes that guy gave my sister were the ones she folded back then."
Song Guanchao suddenly felt a bit sour, realizing she had folded paper cranes for soone else.
"And then?"
"After that, nothing really."
"Huh?" Song Guanchao asked, "Did that Fan Jie guy not respond?"
"He did," Wu Ming said, "He accepted the gift and said, 'You're a good girl and deserve a better man'."
Song Guanchao laughed, Wu Qiangwei actually got the "good person card."
"What happened afterward?"
"This incident hit my sister quite hard. Later, there were so people who pursued her, but she rejected them all, diving into her studies and entering a governnt job straight out of graduation."
"So they never stayed in touch after that?"
"No."
"That's odd."
Song Guanchao took a sip of his cold tea and said, "Then how did he recognize your sister tonight?"
Logically speaking, their only connection was that failed confession.
For soone as standout as Fan Jie was in school, Wu Qiangwei would just be one of many fangirls.
He shouldn't even rember there was such a person.
But years later, he not only rembered but even kept the gift she gave.
It's outrageous, absolutely outrageous.
"Check this guy out for ." Song Guanchao suddenly said.
Wu Ming grumbled, "You ask to check, and I just check?"
Song Guanchao took out his phone, found Wu Qiangwei's number, and placed the phone in front of him.
Wu Ming's heart skipped a beat. He cursed, "Song Guanchao, you're shaless!"
"That's no way to talk. I'm doing this for your sister's good. I'm telling you, this Fan Jie suddenly getting in touch with your sister has no good intentions."
"Think about it. Back then, he was a campus sensation, and he rembers your sister? Not only does he rember, but even keeps the gift."
"Moreover, faced with so many girls' confessions, he can restrain his desires and not get involved with any won."
"In my opinion, this guy's casting a wide net, keeping every gift from every girl who's confessed."
"He's trying to find soone with the best conditions among the confessing girls to live off them!"
After analyzing the matter, Song Guanchao admired himself, "This Fan Jie, is quite a character."
