Chapter 449: Chapter 449 I’m Also Missing a Bracelet
Gu Jiahui has been receiving several bracelets every day recently, all handmade. Altogether, there are already forty or fifty of them.
He was baffled, and after asking his classmates, he learned that it was the latest way to confess one’s feelings.
His popularity among students far exceeds that of Gu Shiting.
This is because his father is a famous businessman, wealthy and renowned; also because he is handsome, fitting the high school girls’ fantasies; and furthermore because he is friendly, unlike the cold Gu Shiting.
He didn’t wear a single one and casually threw them into the trash can on his way home.
Today, Yang Mingming threw another tantrum.
Mrs. Yang called him, asking him to come and calm her down.
Lately, whenever Yang Mingming gets upset, Mrs. Yang will certainly invite him over, and he manages to soothe Yang Mingming.
"It must be Sheng Tang who sent them! It must be!" Yang Mingming gritted her teeth, "How dare he treat me like that!"
Gu Jiahui really wanted to say that he’s always treated you like that, he even whipped you last time, have you forgotten?
Those words were too hurtful, so he didn’t mention it.
He just comforted her: "Don’t take it to heart. Everyone on the forum is guessing it’s you, because only you are a match for Gu Shiting."
Yang Mingming felt a bit happier upon hearing this.
She hugged Gu Jiahui: "You’re so good to me!"
Her attitude towards him changed; she used to disdain him, but now she considered him a confidant.
This was great.
Step by step, Gu Jiahui’s plan was slowly coming to fruition. He would eventually win Yang Mingming’s heart.
Returning to his apartment, he lay on the sofa, constantly measuring his right wrist with his left hand.
His cousin Cheng Lichuan noticed and was a bit worried: "Is your wrist in pain?"
"No. It’s missing something."
"Missing what?"
"Missing a bracelet," Gu Jiahui said.
Cheng Lichuan was confused: "You, a guy, why would you wear a bracelet? You’re not a little girl. Besides, are bracelets fashionable recently?"
Gu Jiahui smiled.
Such tricks are only popular among middle school and high school girls; university girls don’t play with such childish things, so Cheng Lichuan wouldn’t understand.
"I just feel that I need a bracelet," Gu Jiahui said calmly, "I just want one. Even if I get one, I wouldn’t wear it, and I can’t get one anyway."
Cheng Lichuan slapped him on the head: "Get up and eat, you’re talking nonsense. I can’t understand a word of what you’re saying."
Song Chen shared the happenings at school with Mrs. Gu and Gu Shiyan.
They both laughed heartily.
"To be honest, Ting is really clueless!" Gu Shiyan said. "If his family weren’t wealthy and he didn’t look presentable, those little girls wouldn’t be interested in him."
"That’s called loyalty," Mrs. Gu said. "He has Tangtang in his heart."
Gu Shiyan laughed, finding high school students extremely amusing.
"That Yang Mingming actually likes Ting too," Gu Shiyan laughed. "She’s really shameless, like a sticky plaster! Mom, find an opportunity to reprimand the Yang Family, don’t let that young lady embarrass herself and make things difficult for Ting and Tangtang."
"I’ve hinted at it," Mrs. Gu said. "But the Yang Family still won’t give up."
"Isn’t it because of uncle’s influence?" Gu Shiyan scoffed. "Is uncle getting promoted again?"
"Hard to say," Mrs. Gu answered.
While they were talking, Gu Shiting called Song Chen.
He informed Song Chen that he would be having dinner at Sheng Tang’s house tonight and would be staying over, not returning home.
"Sigh, what’s the point of raising a son?" Gu Shiyan said. "He’ll soon belong to someone else. It’s daughters who are better, right Mom?"
"You’re staying home as an old maid, what’s so good about that!" Mrs. Gu didn’t show her any mercy and went upstairs.
Gu Shiyan: "..."
