Chapter 82 - 76: A Chaotic Situation

The next day the sun rose as usual, and the students trained as usual.

The only difference today was that Zheng Yanyan had gotten up early to put on makeup.

When everyone got up and saw this, they found it somewhat incomprehensible.

"Why are you putting on makeup?" Lu Lin asked.

"Just felt like it!"

Su Qing, however, stared at Zheng Yanyan, who was applying makeup, as if deep in thought, "Aren’t you planning to train today?"

As Zheng Yanyan was extending her eyelashes with a mascara brush, she ignored Su Qing’s question.

Putting on makeup definitely meant that she wanted to be seen. In her memory, Zheng Yanyan did not like Chang Hao; moreover, she had been acting strangely since she came back yesterday, but all of these were just Su Qing’s speculations.

When the training started, Zheng Yanyan was the first to call out for a report.

"Instructor, I feel unwell."

"Go rest then." It was not the first time for Zheng Yanyan, and the instructor was used to it.

"Report."

At this time, Su Qing also called out for a report.

"What’s the matter with you?"

"I also feel unwell."

"?" Zheng Yanyan, who was about to leave, was stunned.

It was precisely because of yesterday’s incident that Su Qing wanted to talk to Zhou Yuwen about her suspicions of Zheng Yanyan, so Su Qing intended to follow Zhou Yuwen and Zheng Yanyan today to see what they were really up to.

"Then you go rest in the infirmary as well."

After the instructor spoke, Su Qing and Zheng Yanyan left.

Feeling a bit guilty towards Su Qing, Zheng Yanyan asked her why she suddenly didn’t feel well.

Su Qing said she just didn’t sleep well yesterday and was going to rest for a while.

"That doesn’t sound like you," Zheng Yanyan said laughing.

"You seem very reluctant to have me rest?" Su Qing stared at Zheng Yanyan.

Zheng Yanyan did not respond; she knew she couldn’t conceal her intentions to meet with Zhou Yuwen from Su Qing, but she found it boring to tell Su Qing outright; she had hoped to be together with Zhou Yuwen first and tell Su Qing later.

Both harboring their own thoughts, they went to the infirmary.

However, to their disappointment, Zhou Yuwen was not in the infirmary.

Could it be that Zhou Yuwen went to military training?

That was definitely impossible.

Today Zhou Yuwen had a lot to deal with—first to open an account at the securities company, then to process a loan, and lastly to arrange financing; he had to run to several places.

In Jinling’s dreadful weather, when September felt like an oven nearly steaming people alive, Zhou Yuwen still hadn’t bought a car and had to run around this city full of plane trees.

Zhou Yuwen thought to himself, once he had money, the first thing was to buy a car.

After everything was done, he rushed back to Palm Fun Technology; by the time Zhou Yuwen returned to the school, it was nearly four o’clock.

At this time, Zheng Yanyan couldn’t resist and called Zhou Yuwen.

From not seeing Zhou Yuwen in the infirmary, Zheng Yanyan’s mood was already bad, not to mention that Zhou Yuwen had ignored her last night, and today he wasn’t in the infirmary either.

Wasn’t this obviously avoiding her?

Was she really that terrible?

Taking advantage of Su Qing reading in the infirmary, Zheng Yanyan ran to a bathroom stall and called Zhou Yuwen, feeling a bit like a thief for doing it behind Su Qing’s back.

The call connected after just two rings.

"Hello?"

"Why are you avoiding me?" Zheng Yanyan’s voice carried a bit of anger and a hint of grievance.

Zhou Yuwen hadn’t saved Zheng Yanyan’s number and only after thinking for a long time asked uncertainly, "Zheng Yanyan?"

"Hmph!" Zheng Yanyan just snorted to express her dissatisfaction, then asked, "Are you doing it on purpose, avoiding me?"

"Why would I avoid you?" Zhou Yuwen felt it was completely absurb.

"Then why didn’t you come to the infirmary?"

"Why should I go to the infirmary?"

"Zhou Yuwen, you’re definitely avoiding me on purpose." Zheng Yanyan felt even more aggrieved, believing it was her bold confession, and Zhou Yuwen dared to avoid her.

"You touched me, kissed me, just to shirk responsibility!" If anyone was an expert at creating trouble, it had to be Zheng Yanyan; she understood this all too well.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuwen was dumbfounded, "What? Don’t spout nonsense, when did I touch you or kiss you?"

"You’re denying it now? You didn’t touch me?"

"It wasn’t on purpose, besides, you kissed me first."

"So you admit you’re avoiding me?"

"Nonsense, I’m busy out here," Zhou Yuwen was speechless.

"Are you sure you’re not avoiding me?"

"Why would I avoid you, are you sick?"

"Oh."

Toward the end of the conversation, Zheng Yanyan’s voice almost sounded tearful—not that Zheng Yanyan was fragile. It’s a typical tactic for girls, quite normal, not exactly tearful, just somewhat pitiful.

Zheng Yanyan said she thought Zhou Yuwen was avoiding her because of Chang Hao.

Zhou Yuwen said, "Chang Hao isn’t even your guy, why would I avoid you because of him?"

These words made Zheng Yanyan happy, and she giggled, "Zhou Yuwen, do you know what I like most about you?"

"Hmm,"

"I like how clueless you are the most; I was afraid you would be like those guys on TV, saying Chang Hao is your brother so you have to sacrifice yourself for him. Let me tell you, I have absolutely no relation with Chang Hao. If you don’t believe me, I can block him right now."

"First, I would never sacrifice myself for anyone."

"Second, Zheng Yanyan, have I ever promised you anything? What kind of daydreams are you having, what’s our relationship?"

Zhou Yuwen was speechless, but Zheng Yanyan didn’t mind and giggled, "It’s nothing, you may not agree now, but that doesn’t mean you won’t in the future, Zhou Yuwen, you will fall for me."

"Haha, you’re still as conceited as ever."

"Sigh, Zhou Yuwen, where are you headed?"
