Chapter 141: Chapter 118 The Youngster is No Longer to be Seen_3
“Ha!”
Ding Yi suddenly burst into laughter, as bright as blossoming flowers.
“Hmm?”
The two had walked silently for a while without speaking. When Ding Yi suddenly laughed, Zhou Wang looked over in confusion.
“It’s nothing, I just rembered… When we were about to leave, my friends were all filled with resentnt.”
“Why would there be resentnt?” Zhou Wang was puzzled.
“Because they were already hungry! They hadn’t started eating since they were waiting for you. And then you went off chatting with , so they had to wait longer, of course they were upset!”
“I hadn’t thought of that… But when I left, I already had Young Master Zhang arrange the food, so by the ti we get back, it should be ready to eat.”
Zhou Wang chuckled.
“But I guess there’s another reason for their resentnt.”
Ding Yi suddenly stopped, turned her head, and gazed at Zhou Wang with bright eyes.
“What?”
“Seeing such a handso guy appear like that and not from the circle, yet I ‘snatched’ him away… That’s why!”
Ding Yi emphasized “snatched” and looked at Zhou Wang with a playful smile.
There she went again…
Back in freshman year, it was this very deanor of hers that captured Zhou Wang.
Feeling a bit nostalgic, Zhou Wang tried to keep a straight face, “Haven’t I always been handso? Why didn’t you ‘snatch’ earlier?”
Zhou Wang retaliated, stressing his words too.
“Ha ha ha, back then you were only handso for a while, Cai University Chen Guanxi!”
Hearing his old nickna brought up unexpectedly by Ding Yi, Zhou Wang felt a bit embarrassed.
But over ti he had developed thicker skin, so Zhou Wang just cleared his throat lightly, “I can’t compete with you. After all, there were Cai University Daniel Wu, Cai University Li Xian, Cai University Xiao Zhan all vying with , but you, ‘Cai University Zhang Yuxi,’ stand alone.”
Hearing that, Ding Yi also blushed a bit.
She was generally outgoing, but this was one of those rare things that embarrassed her.
The reason was that so overly dramatic guy, who was probably a fan of Zhang Yuxi, had unfurled a banner proposing to Ding Yi on the school field and wrote “Cai University Zhang Yuxi” on it. Sohow, it ended up online and even trended once.
That was one thing, but the fact that Zhang Yuxi herself liked the post and comnted, “The younger sister is so beautiful,” really did it.
So, Ding Yi more or less beca the officially acknowledged “Zhang Yuxi 2.0,” and this nickna stuck with her for so ti.
When Cai University clubs initiated a campus beauty contest on their website, they often introduced her with similar comnts.
This series of events had troubled her, making the once vibrant her even inclined toward introversion for a while.
Because even though the other person was a celebrity, Ding Yi’s personality wasn’t one to live under such a shadow.
And in all fairness, their features weren’t particularly similar, only that noble aura with a hint of mixed heritage was alike.
“Zhou Wang, just how many things have you kept from ?”
They both tacitly skipped this topic, Ding Yi turned to ask, “I know you’ve changed, but if you can make Zhang Zhiyuan go to such lengths to arrange this for you, it seems my information’s a bit outdated!”
Indeed, when she saw Zhou Wang show up, Ding Yi was surprised, but she wasn’t just any girl. Given what happened at the last birthday party, she quickly accepted this fact.
And with it ca an even stronger curiosity.
“There were so serendipitous elents, made a little fortune in the crypto world.”
Zhou Wang was now well-versed in using this line of explanation.
Ding Yi was a bit stunned, she blinked, then leaned in slightly, smiling as she asked, “Now that you’ve gotten more handso and richer, are you better at wooing girls?”
“What are you talking about? I’m not that kind of person.”
“But, you did fool …”
Ding Yi lowered her gaze, sunset dappling her smooth face, Zhou Wang couldn’t see her expression, only heard her softly murmuring.
Taken by surprise, Zhou Wang wasn’t sure if she was referring to sothing specific, or if she just recalled their past flirtations and his subsequent distancing. For a mont, he didn’t know how to respond.
Thankfully, Ding Yi soon looked up again, her face still lit with a cheerful smile, “I think I’m hungry too, Zhou Wang, let’s go back to eat!”
“Almost forgot you were the biggest foodie.”
Zhou Wang laughed, “I’ve never figured out how you can eat six als a day and still keep such a great figure.”
“It’s all-natural beauty, can’t help it!”
Ding Yi boasted, suddenly stretching her white hand out to Zhou Wang.
Zhou Wang looked over curiously.
“Let’s walk holding hands for 200 ters, it’s what I owe you~”
Ding Yi smiled like a flower, her dark eyes sparkled in the twilight.
Zhou Wang was startled, only then recalling a long-ago promise between them, a reward for Zhou Wang’s diligent studies back then, Ding Yi still owed him that hand-holding.
He didn’t say much, just took Ding Yi’s soft and warm hand.
As they neared the restaurant, Ding Yi suddenly turned back and looked at him.
“Zhou Wang.”
“Hmm?”
“Soone saw us.”
At first, Zhou Wang didn’t catch on, until Ding Yi blinked and pointed to the second-floor window of the private room.
When Zhou Wang looked up, he just caught soone retracting from the window, faint laughter seed to drift from the room.
Before Zhou Wang could react, Ding Yi had released his hand and, with a smile, playfully nudged him from behind, pushing him forward.
“Quick, quick~ I’m starving!”
