Chapter 33: Chapter 33 Big Brother
Over the past few days, Zhao Xuanglang had been bustling around after Zhong Nianyao’s every move. To onlookers, it seed that he was pursuing her.
Rumors spread quickly within Tenglong Academy, with many people discussing the matter.
Previously, Zhong Nianyao had always chased after Li Jingming, and could definitely be considered his top fawning admirer. But now, she was no longer following Li Jingming, and at this ti Zhao Xuanglang was conspicuously pursuing her.
No matter how you looked at it, it was full of lodrama.
Zhong Nianyao only ca to the academy for classes, and since she didn’t have many good friends there, she hadn’t heard these rumors.
However, looking at Zhao Xuanglang, who kept circling around her every day, Zhong Nianyao felt like the veins on her forehead were about to burst, “Zhao Xuanglang, don’t you have anything better to do? Why are you always following ?”
“Master—”
She raised her hand to stop him before he could continue, “Speak to in plain language.”
“Ah, Zhong Nianyao, I’m just showing my respect for you!” Zhao Xuanglang’s smile carried a bit of flattery, “You saved my life! I really can’t repay you enough, I—”
“Just don’t plan on repaying with your body,” Zhong Nianyao interjected quickly. “Moreover, your dad has already paid ten million in compensation. We are even, money for service.”
“How can you conflate the two!” Zhao Xuanglang proclaid righteously, “That was my dad’s way of thanking you, but my life is worth more than ten million. If it hadn’t been for you, by now, I might’ve already been killed by my aunt and her family!”
Indeed, it was his aunt’s family who had altered his Life Chart. And the one who swapped it was no other than her son, his cousin. He used to get along quite well with his aunt’s household. He hadn’t expected that they’d been plotting against him all along.
If he hadn’t t Zhong Nianyao, he might already be dead by now.
However, his aunt’s family hadn’t fared well either. His father had already kicked his aunt and uncle out of the company, and as for the cousin who swapped his Life Chart, he had died suddenly in the hospital the day before.
Now, when his aunt’s family ca knocking, his father wouldn’t even let them in the door. Even his grandparents’ pleas were to no avail.
Zhong Nianyao nodded, not at all surprised. Clearly, she had already guessed who was behind the harm to Zhao Xuanglang.
“Zhong Nianyao, from now on, you’re my big brother,” Zhao Xuanglang said with a cheeky smile, yet his words were sincere. “You saved my life, so I’m your little brother from now on. If you need anything, just give the order.”
Of course, he actually wanted to beco Zhong Nianyao’s disciple even more. But he knew that even if he asked, she would never agree.
Being her little brother wasn’t too bad either, at least he had climbed into a relationship with her. If there was ever a need to ask for help, it would be easier.
Zhong Nianyao looked straight at Zhao Xuanglang, as if she could see right through his thoughts.
Under her sharp gaze, Zhao Xuanglang felt completely transparent before her, with nowhere to hide his intentions.
Just when Zhao Xuanglang felt he couldn’t hold on any longer and was about to blurt out everything in his heart, Zhong Nianyao slowly withdrew her gaze and casually dropped, “Do as you please.”
With that, she walked straight ahead.
Zhao Xuanglang was left in a daze, almost thinking there was sothing wrong with his ears. After confirming what he had heard, he beca visibly excited at an observable rate.
Then he imdiately followed her quickly, calling out, “Big brother, wait for !”
Others hadn’t overheard their conversation, but could clearly see Zhao Xuanglang’s excited smile as he chased after Zhong Nianyao.
So, everyone speculated that Zhao Xuanglang was so happy because Zhong Nianyao must have accepted his pursuit.
Li Jingming and Shen Yixue, not far away, felt a bit uncomfortable watching this scene.
Especially Li Jingming, who felt a peculiar sourness inside. There was a ti when it was always Zhong Nianyao chasing after him. But now, even when they t, she simply ignored him. That feeling made sothing strange rise in his heart.
It was as though sothing was slipping away from him.
Feeling peculiar inside, Li Jingming shook his head, trying to dispel these bizarre feelings.
He kept reminding himself that he was simply not used to it. Now that Zhong Nianyao wasn’t bothering him, he should be happy.
Shen Yixue also felt uncomfortable. All along, she had always felt superior in front of Zhong Nianyao.
