Editor: Atlas Studios
Shen Yushan frowned, “Even if he’s a good man, didn’t he let you down.”
Su Zixi bitterly smiled and shook her head, not explaining further.
Seeing this, Shen Yushan could only sigh, “Don’t worry, there are plenty of n vying for a silly girl like you! I’m really afraid you’ll be sold off and end up counting the money for them…”
Su Zixi couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Almost involuntarily, her mind wandered to He Jingyao. If it were him… would he sell her?
Well, he’s so rich, definitely not…
Su Zixi realized what she was thinking and suddenly felt a bit guilty. Initially, she had considered Mr. He to be a stranger, but now, she was already contemplating the possibility of being with him…
Could ten thousand yuan have won her over…
From this angle, it seed she really was quite gullible, Su Zixi thought sowhat annoyed.
Shen Yushan saw her frowning one mont and laughing the next, and instinctively felt Su Zixi was hiding sothing. She was about to continue questioning her, but just then, the professor on stage suddenly called out their nas.
Both Shen Yushan and Su Zixi tensed up, thinking the professor was upset with them for talking in private. But the professor said, “Zhixi, Yushan, you two will act as the team captain and vice-captain for this Challenge Cup project. The competition is next month, and ti is tight, so do your best.”
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and then nodded in unison.
The Challenge Cup is held at this ti every year. Last year, Su Zixi and Shen Yushan were just ordinary team mbers, but this year they were promoted to captain and vice-captain. Instantly, they put their gossiping thoughts aside and focused on the lecture.
For the next few days, to prepare for the competition, Su Zixi and Shen Yushan led the other team mbers to the library, working from morning till night, so busy they had to order takeout for als.
As a result, for three whole days, Su Zixi didn’t step out of the school gates and completely forgot about He Jingyao.
…
On the fourth morning, just as Su Zixi arrived at the library, Shen Yushan pulled her aside, “How many days has your phone been off? Go to the office quickly, the horoom teacher is looking for you.”
“What’s the matter?” Su Zixi was surprised.
These past few days, she had turned off her phone to focus on the project.
“I don’t know either, the horoom teacher just called .” Shen Yushan shrugged, “You better go check it out.”
Su Zixi didn’t dare to delay and hurried to the horoom teacher’s office.
She opened the door, about to greet, only to see a sowhat familiar back sitting at the desk.
Her hands involuntarily clenched.
The horoom teacher looked up and saw her, smiling, “Zhixi, you’re finally here. I know you’ve been busy with the Challenge Cup, but you can’t completely ignore your family. Look at how worried your father was, he ca to school to find you.”
Su Guo’an stood up and faced her, his face full of relief and emotion, “Zhixi, I’m glad you’re okay. I’ve been calling you these past few days, but couldn’t get through. I thought sothing happened to you.”
The horoom teacher nodded at Su Guo’an, “I’ll leave the office to you two. Zhixi, have a good chat with your father.”
Su Zixi wanted to say that she and Su Guo’an had nothing to talk about.
But she didn’t want the horoom teacher to know about her family’s ssy affairs, so she could only accept the arrangent.
Once the horoom teacher left the office, Su Zixi spoke calmly, “What do you want.”
Su Guo’an sighed, both helpless and guilty, “Zhixi, you must be angry with , right.”
Su Zixi gave a cold laugh and stayed silent.
Su Guo’an’s expression changed, suddenly erupting, “Zhixi, I’m your father. It’s not that I don’t want to love you! But over the years, every ti I try to talk to you, you have this attitude! How can I love you? Your sister is obedient and considerate, but you, you always treat like I’m your enemy!”
