"Brother Jianli, where’s Mianmian?"
"She got away." Some of Shen Mianmian’s words had struck a nerve in Gu Jianli, and he was in a very bad mood at the moment.
"You failed?" Useless, Zhou Siyu cursed silently to herself, "How could you fail? Mianmian is so petite, how could you not handle her? Didn’t we agree you were going to knock her out and bring her here?"
Last time, when she came to the Gu Family to study with Gu Jianli, she later ran into him and accidentally found out that Gu Jianli had feelings for Shen Mianmian. While mocking him for being a toad lusting after a swan, she had crafted a plan.
It had been difficult to wait until Gu Jianbin returned to his hometown, and to trick Shen Mianmian into coming out. How could the plan have failed when it should have been killing three birds with one stone?
"She was willing to come with me, so I didn’t knock her out, but who knew she would run away halfway," Gu Jianli explained.
She was so angry that she didn’t even want to speak anymore. Looking at the ugly sight of Gu Jianli, she felt like vomiting.
Taking a deep breath, she soothed, "Brother Jianli, don’t lose heart, I’ll help you come up with another plan next time. Just remember, once the rice is cooked, Mianmian will definitely marry you. If she doesn’t marry you, nobody else will want her."
"Mm." Gu Jianli nodded and turned to go back home.
Right now, he wasn’t thinking about Shen Mianmian; all he could think about was the house.
Zhou Siyu was about to leave when she suddenly heard Tian Caiyan’s voice and quickly hid around the corner again.
After a while, Lu Siyuan and Tian Caiyan’s figures came into view.
Lu Siyuan made a full turn on the spot and demanded, "Tian Caiyan, where’s Shen Mianmian?"
"I... I don’t know." Tian Caiyan was also in a panic. It was Zhou Siyu who told her to wait here for Shen Mianmian, but there was no one around, and she hadn’t seen Zhou Siyu either.
Lu Siyuan felt like he had been played, and anger brought veins bulging on his forehead.
Pointing at Tian Caiyan, he said, "Tian Caiyan, don’t let me see you again. Every time I do, I’ll beat you up, and I won’t care if you’re a man or a woman."
Having said that, he turned and walked away.
As the figure walked further away, Tian Caiyan stamped her foot in fury.
It was all Zhou Siyu’s fault, all her deception.
"Stop calling, he’s long gone."
Zhou Siyu walked out from around the corner.
"It’s all your fault, now Siyuan hates me to death." Tian Caiyan took all her anger out on Zhou Siyu, "Didn’t you say Shen Mianmian was fooling around with another man? Where is she?"
"Caiyan, I told you before, this plan might not succeed. I didn’t expect it to fail," Zhou Siyu sighed, "There are plenty of good men out there. If he really doesn’t like you, then find another man you like."
"Right, there are plenty of good men, and Gu Jianbin is not bad."
Tian Caiyan said bitterly and stomped away.
Zhou Siyu glared resentfully at her departing figure and quickly followed, planning to go back to school. Unexpectedly, midway, they ran into Yang Xiaoxi, who was out to go shopping with a friend.
Already in a bad mood, Tian Caiyan burst out at the sight of someone she disliked, "Little slut."
Yang Xiaoxi had not intended to pay her any attention and was just going to pass her by with a glare, but upon being insulted, she couldn’t take it any longer. Get full chapters from 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮·𝙣𝙚𝙩
"Tian Caiyan, who do you think you are to curse at me?"
"So what if I curse you? You think you’re something special just because your dad is the principal?" Tian Caiyan wanted to vent her fury by arguing or even better, by fighting. Running into Yang Xiaoxi, it was her bad luck.
