[Excuse me, the person in front, by your words I can tell you’re a humanities student, but if you had any knowledge about the pharmacy program you wouldn’t say something , not knowing how difficult our exams are or how thick the textbooks are; preparing at the last minute is simply impossible.]
Online discussions were rampant, yet Shu Wan was completely unaware; she was being blocked at a classroom corner and couldn’t pass through.
"Shu Wan, why haven’t you accepted my WeChat request?"
Standing in front of Shu Wan, at that moment, was Su Zhou.
Ever since the last school anniversary, Shu Wan had seldom come to school. Su Zhou had waited several times but hadn’t caught her; this time he had finally run into her.
Shu Wan gave Su Zhou a cold glance and completely ignored him.
However, even a disdainful cold glance from Shu Wan, in Su Zhou’s eyes, was uniquely charming, and it even made him disregard the fact that Shu Wan had previously thrown him out of her room.
"I’m not doing anything bad. We’re classmates. What’s wrong with classmates adding each other on WeChat, you—"
"Add what? Just get lost. Who do you think you are, wanting to add me on WeChat?"
Su Zhou hadn’t even finished his sentence when a clear male voice came from behind, and then a shadow dropped from above. Su Zhou couldn’t dodge in time and was hit in the face by a basketball.
Su Zhou, covering his eyes, turned around and saw Fu Yang in black attire, casually standing with one hand in his pocket and his silver hair glinting in the sunlight.
As a notable figure from the nearby Fu Middle School, Su Zhou was naturally aware of Fu Yang’s name.
He also knew about the relationship between Fu Yang and Shu Wan.
Already annoyed from being ignored by Shu Wan, Su Zhou was now humiliated in public by a teenage boy, which sparked rage in him. He sneered coldly, "Oh, isn’t this Shu Wan’s little stepson? What’s this, even before your dad has said anything, you’re stepping in?"
Fu Yang shot Su Zhou a cold look, "Just passing by and hitting a dog."
"You!" Su Zhou, infuriated, said, "You rush to stand up for your stepmom so eagerly. People who don’t know might think you’re her husband. But well, since there’s no blood relation, who knows what might be going on behind the scenes between a stepson and stepmom."
Su Zhou’s words were vulgar, and Fu Yang’s anger immediately soared.
Clutching his fists, he was about to move but then saw Shu Wan shaking her head slightly at him. Remembering what Shu Wan had said before, Fu Yang gritted his teeth, pretended not to see Su Zhou, and walked briskly to Shu Wan’s side, "Aren’t we leaving?"
Shu Wan then walked off with Fu Yang, completely ignoring Su Zhou.
Watching their retreating figures, a dark shade flashed in Su Zhou’s eyes as he muttered to himself, assuming he had struck a nerve, "Feeling guilty, huh? No wonder you’ve been putting on such a virtuous act, Shu Wan, it turns out you like minors."
Fu Yang really wanted to turn around and slap Su Zhou’s mouth three hundred and sixty times, enough for him not to dare speak nonsense ever again.
But seeing Shu Wan remain composed, Fu Yang forcibly calmed himself. However, his patience wasn’t great and after enduring for a while, he couldn’t help himself, "He talks so nastily, and you’re not even angry?"
"I’m not a clay figure; how could I not be angry?"
Shu Wan turned her head and spoke calmly to Fu Yang, "It’s just that, I control myself."
"You beat him up now, and other than hurting him, what would you gain? Only criticism and gossip from others?"
"I don’t care what they say; I’m just upset and want to vent, okay?"
"You’re not forbidden from venting, but you could choose a harmless method."
Fu Yang’s eyes brightened, unconsciously leaning closer, "Can you elaborate?"
"What he cares about the most will bring him the most pain," Shu Wan hinted and then added, "Measure it well."
With these words from Shu Wan, Fu Yang understood.
Indeed, there were a thousand ways to make Su Zhou miserable without exposing himself publicly.
Fu Yang didn’t know Su Zhou’s weak spot, but Qin Lv would surely know. Fu Yang thought about asking Qin Lv to check later.
However, Fu Yang suddenly realized something and looked at Shu Wan oddly several times, "No wonder you and my dad get along so well, you both play dirty."
"That’s the way of the world." Shu Wan was in a good mood today, even willing to joke with Fu Yang, "Learn well and I’ll slowly teach you."
"Cut it out." Fu Yang waved dismissively, "I’m inherently decent, and day by day you and my dad are corrupting me."
Fu Yang originally considered himself the top dog of Imperial City, but now realized that compared to Shu Wan and Fu Siyu, he was simply a paragon of pure positive energy.
