Chapter 154: Chapter 154: I’m Just Concerned About You Chapter 154: Chapter 154: I’m Just Concerned About You Zhou Huaiyu, who couldn’t bear it, stepped in to mediate, “Brother Yi, why don’t you just accept it? We all did, and if you don’t, Beauty Ye might think you have something against her.”
Sheng Chuyi, with a cold expression throughout, said, “If you like it, you can keep it.”
“That… wouldn’t be appropriate, would it?”
Zhou Huaiyu awkwardly said, “She picked it out especially for you, if I take it… that would be so wrong!”
Sheng Chuyi didn’t say a word and simply returned to his seat.
Ye Wei’an managed a forced smile and said, “It’s okay, maybe the gift I chose isn’t to Chuyi’s liking.” After saying that, she glanced in Sheng Chuyi’s direction before turning back to her own seat.
Shen Zhaozhao inwardly lamented, such a good girl!
And someone was just too indifferent, if this continues, isn’t he destined to be single forever!
Some couldn’t stand to see Ye Wei’an upset, and spoke up for her indignantly, “Chuyi is being too much, isn’t he?”
“Exactly, Vivian kindly brought him a gift, everyone else accepted theirs, but he didn’t. He acts like he’s something special.”
“He’s really lacking in manners, relying on being handsome to disregard others.”
“Yes, he is too arrogant, isn’t he?”
Ye Wei’an, having been rejected publicly, was obviously feeling bad but still managed to squeeze out a smile in front of others and feigned nonchalance, “Alright, don’t talk about him anymore. Maybe he just doesn’t like me, and that’s not his fault.”
“Our Vivian is so wonderful, why wouldn’t he like her?”
“Exactly! If he doesn’t like someone like you, what kind of person would he like? He must be waiting for a goddess from heaven to catch his eye!”
The group of girls was not far from Shen Zhaozhao, and their conversation reached her ears without missing a word.
Shen Zhaozhao couldn’t help but remember she had once asked Sheng Chuyi the same question.
She remembered his answer: smart, beautiful–by all accounts, Ye Wei’an should have been his ideal type.
It’s a mystery what else he found unsatisfactory.
Must be really holding out for a celestial being?
When school was over, Shen Zhaozhao couldn’t help but ask the question.
Sheng Chuyi: “Do you think I should like her?”
Shen Zhaozhao pouted and said, “You either like someone or you don’t, there’s no should or shouldn’t. I’m just curious; if you don’t like someone like her, what kind are you looking for?”
Sheng Chuyi: “I don’t like any type; I just want to focus on my studies right now.”
Shen Zhaozhao nodded and responded, “Got it, so right now your heart is set only on Jing University, huh?”
Sheng Chuyi looked at her and didn’t respond.
Shen Zhaozhao: “It’s not wrong of you to think that way. After all, we’re just in high school now, and our main task is to study. It’s right for you to want to focus all your energy on your studies. However, you could be a bit more tactful towards the girls; rejecting someone in front of so many people really hurt her feelings!”
Finally losing his patience, Sheng Chuyi interrupted her, “Shen Zhaozhao, I can handle my own affairs; just take care of yourself.”
Shen Zhaozhao rolled her eyes and retorted, “I care about you, you know. The way you acted today has everyone saying behind your back that you are cold and arrogant.”
Sheng Chuyi: “I don’t care.” Others’ opinions were of no importance to him.
Shen Zhaozhao wanted to say that she cared; she didn’t want to hear people speaking ill of him…
