Chapter 272: Chapter 272 I thought I had upset you Chapter 272: Chapter 272 I thought I had upset you The girls next door heard this and their eyes shone with excitement.
The girl who was nudged forward had a blushing face, and with a shy smile said to her, “Sister, you are very beautiful, we all support you, you must keep it up!”
The sincerity in the other’s expression and the clear expectation and encouragement in her eyes were genuine.
The faces of everyone else also showed excitement, with no hint of jealousy.
“Thank you, you are all very cute!” Thinking of how she had just been upset about their attention, Shen Zhaozhao couldn’t help but feel a little ashamed.
She had thought that these girls liked Sheng Chuyi too and that she was going to have a bunch of new rivals, but it turned out they were simply admirers with no intentions of competing with her.
“What’s wrong?” Sheng Chuyi came back with drinks, looked at Shen Zhaozhao, then at the girl in front of her, thinking Shen Zhaozhao was troubled again.
As soon as the latter saw him, her face flushed and she quickly bowed her head and returned to her seat next door.
Shen Zhaozhao said with a smile, “Nothing’s wrong, I was just chatting with the juniors.”
“Are you done talking?”
“Then let’s eat!” said Sheng Chuyi. Though he was puzzled, he didn’t ask further and handed her the drink he was holding.
Shen Zhaozhao’s appetite was excellent, perhaps because her mood had improved, and she even thought that the junior high cafeteria was better than the senior high one.
She had even planned to come back and eat there again the next day.
After eating, the three of them prepared to go back to class, but unexpectedly, Sheng Chuyi followed them in the direction of the senior high section.
Shen Zhaozhao looked at him, puzzled, “Aren’t you going back to the office?”
Sheng Chuyi replied, “I ate too much, need to walk it off.”
This man was always disciplined, in both studies and life.
Overeating was something that would never happen to him.
But now he claimed he had overeaten…
Who would believe that!
Zhou Huaiyu and Gu Chengzhou, seeing it was Sheng Chuyi who had treated them to lunch, tactfully went ahead first.
Shen Zhaozhao and Sheng Chuyi trailed a short distance behind.
Sheng Chuyi asked, “Were you angry just now?”
“No! Who said I was angry?” Shen Zhaozhao’s eyes flickered, too embarrassed to admit she was jealous seeing him surrounded by a group of junior girls.
Sheng Chuyi looked deeply at her and said, “I thought I had upset you.”
Suddenly, Shen Zhaozhao stopped, looked up, and said, “Do we really have to wait until graduation to be together?”
“What’s the matter?” Sheng Chuyi asked.
Shen Zhaozhao pouted her lips, “It just feels like such a long time.” What should she do if she didn’t want to wait anymore?
She admitted, when seeing him surrounded by other girls, she cared, would get instinctively angry, her chest would feel uncomfortable, and she would feel sour. Although there had always been many girls who liked him, she had never been upset about it before.
But now, not only did she care, she got angry, and she couldn’t help wanting to lose her temper.
She felt she had changed, becoming almost unlike herself.
He was so outstanding, and she was so ordinary, she feared they might never get together and he would suddenly stop liking her.
Sheng Chuyi guessed her concerns and looked at her with gentle patience, “Shen Zhaozhao, the most important thing for you now is to study hard. Everything else will come in time, don’t rush.”
“If you don’t want me to worry, then you shouldn’t have said those things!” Shen Zhaozhao muttered.
It made her mind race uncontrollably.
