Chapter 299: Chapter 299: Aloof Campus Belle VS Gentle Flower (Part 12) Chapter 299: Chapter 299: Aloof Campus Belle VS Gentle Flower (Part 12) Lu Changting, who had successfully learned Shengyin’s address, returned to the school in an exceptionally good mood, completely forgetting about a certain “fragile and cute” friend.
When Shengyin arrived at school the next day, she received a great deal of concern from her classmates since she looked rather frightening when she was carried out the day before.
“Thank you all, I’m much better now, it’s nothing serious,” she said graciously. Although her face remained expressionless, it was clear that she truly appreciated their concern.
The classmates suddenly felt that maybe Gu Shengyin wasn’t as haughty and aloof as she seed to be on ordinary days—perhaps she was just not good at expressing herself verbally.
As Gu Shengyin easily won the favor of her peers, Qi Shishi suddenly asked, “Sheng Lu, what happened to you yesterday? Why did you push away so forcefully?”
Her question quieted everyone down, as they all rembered the incident of Shengyin pushing Qi Shishi away and then fainting herself. They were curious about what had actually happened.
Hearing this, Shengyin’s face turned slightly pale again, and just as everyone was concerned she might faint once more, she struggled to maintain composure, “I was at fault yesterday, sorry, Qi Shishi. I will compensate you for your dical expenses.”
While she spoke thus, everyone could tell that she was not quite right, which only deepened everyone’s suspicions about the incident.
Qi Shishi was taken aback.
Sheng Lu’s words seed to take all the bla upon herself, but those present that day could see that Sheng Lu was clearly in more serious trouble.
By saying this, it only made people more curious about what exactly had happened, and they would subconsciously feel sympathy for the weaker party, leaning towards Sheng Lu.
Qi Shishi gritted her teeth internally: She had thought Shengyin was just a high-and-mighty young lady who deed herself above everyone else, but it turned out she was dark inside.
After this incident, Gu Shengyin successfully portrayed herself as “more approachable.”
Although she was not as popular as Qi Shishi, she wouldn’t find herself in a situation where no one would speak up for her.
There was still one class in the afternoon that she had with Yuaen Chen.
After class, Yuaen Chen suddenly called out to Gu Shengyin at a corner in the hallway.
“Is there sothing the matter?” Gu Shengyin asked.
Yuaen Chen, rembering his roommate’s advice, thought it made sense and that it was better to take the initiative.
“Sheng Lu, I have sothing I want to say to you,” Yuaen Chen said nervously as he looked into Gu Shengyin’s clear eyes.
“I don’t know, do you have a boyfriend?” he asked.
Gu Shengyin shook her head.
Yuaen Chen was delighted, but just as he was about to continue, Gu Shengyin spoke first, “I’m sorry, Yuaen Chen, I’m not considering that at the mont.”
Yuaen Chen felt as though he had been doused with a bucket of cold water. How could he not hear the implicit rejection in her words?
Yet looking at the cool-faced Gu Shengyin, hope rekindled in his heart: she didn’t say she disliked him; she just didn’t want to consider these matters right now. Did that an if he confessed, he would be rejected, but others would be too? In that case, did he still have a chance?
Gu Shengyin, unaware of the renewed determination in his heart, nodded and left.
Then, around a corner, she saw a certain man standing there.
Lu Changting held a thermal flask in his hand and said with a slight smile upon seeing her, “It seems I might not have co at the right ti?”
