Chapter 68: Cousins Vie For The Sweetheart
One of the girls stared at Luo Zheng while she chased Bo Hancheng, after which she made a remark in disdain.
Another girl then proceeded to analyze the situation, “I think she just got rejected by Senior Mubai when she wooed him previously, so now she has no choice but to court Teacher Bo instead… ”
Luo Tingxue listened with a heavy heart and a sullen expression on her face.
She was afraid that Luo Zheng would change her target… to Bo Hancheng after failing to woo Xi Mubai. After all, Bo Hancheng was better than Xi Mubai, apart from family background!
“Mubai, you’re going to be so much more relaxed without having Luo Zheng to pester you from now on!”
Shen Lu teased nonchalantly.
Xi Mubai had a look of annoyance on his pale face and he barked, “What does that have to do with me!?!”
It was no wonder that she was so cold and aloof towards him. He thought, she’s like a completely different person. Indeed, she’s such a man-crazy dimwit. What would she know about love?
He just didn’t expect that she would fall for Bo Hancheng who was Luo Tingxue’s crush… He then thought about why Luo Tingxue would ask him for help to convince her to leave Capital University and focus on revising.
As Luo Zheng’s cousin, Luo Tingxue was concerned about her and was afraid that she would fall behind in her studies… Yet, Luo Zheng was vying with her for her crush. The two of them were truly worlds apart!
Xi Mubai immediately felt even more disgusted with Luo Zheng. “Tingxue, I think I might have to take my promise back. I doubt I can persuade Luo Zheng now.”
Luo Tingxue’s heart sank but she still kept a polite smile on. “Mubai, you have no idea. My cousin told me that Teacher Bo is her benefactor and she’s probably just chasing him out of gratitude! So, I’m still hoping that you can step in to persuade her.”
Xi Mubai remained silent and thought, is this really the case?
…
Luo Zheng had no idea that others were talking about her and hence, she decided to chase after Bo Hancheng.
“Brother Cheng, why do you refuse to teach me how to draw? You have so many students, one more shouldn’t matter!”
“Brother Cheng, you just have to teach me for an hour a day. It won’t affect your private life! Or am I not paying you enough for your lessons? You may feel free to increase the price!”
“Brother Cheng, if you don’t wish to teach me how to draw, you may teach me something else! I’m telling you, I’m not just pretty, I’m really smart too and I’m a fast learner. I definitely won’t embarrass you!”
…
The two of them walked out of Capital University one after another, all the way to the carpark.
Along the way, Bo Hancheng was walking without any expression on his face, while Luo Zheng followed him and tried to curry favor with him.
“Brother Cheng… ”
“Luo Zheng, stop following me!”
Unable to keep his cool any longer, Bo Hancheng finally warned her coldly.
“I’ll stop following you as long as you agree to teach me, Brother Cheng!”
Luo Zheng was still as stubborn as before and she blinked continuously.
“Impossible.”
Bo Hancheng opened the car door after replying to her coldly.
Refusing to succumb, Luo Zheng opened the back door, raised her chin proudly and exclaimed, “I’ll keep following you if you don’t agree, Brother Cheng!”
Upon hearing her words, Bo Hancheng turned around to look at her instead of getting inside the car.
He was greeted with the side of her beautiful face and her slender waist which was accentuated by her bright, red dress… It seemed that there was something tugging at his heartstrings and making him tense up.
Must you be so brazen as to provoke me time and time again? Ah, little imp, you really don’t know any better!
Bang!
At the next instant, Bo Hancheng slammed the door shut.
Luo Zheng got a great shock. Watching him walk towards her, she smiled at him and said, “Brother Cheng… simmer down… I’ll leave right now… ”
“Hah, what’s the hurry?”
