Chapter 226: Ambiguous

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Tang had indeed been waiting for her in the classroom obediently.

Shi Man went back and confirmed that she was not running around through the window on the door. Only then did she stop and look at Yuan Yi, who was chasing after her. “How did you know that 1 was on the rooftop?”

“Su Tang was worried about you, so she asked me to help take a look.” Yuan Yi stuffed the two cups of milk tea he had bought when he passed by the cafeteria just now to her. “Take it with Su Tang. I’ll leave first.”

“Yes, thank you.” Shi Man tightened her grip on the bag in her hand. Seeing him sweating profusely, her heart suddenly softened and she took out a tissue from her pocket. “Wipe your sweat. You’ll catch a cold easily if you’re exposed to the wind.”

Yuan Yi’s eyes lit up. He happily took the tissue and wiped the sweat on his face. “Thank you. Can I take your car to your house for dinner tonight?”

“My third brother will come and pick me up tonight. There shouldn’t be any seats,” Shi Man replied calmly.

Yuan Yi lowered his eyes in disappointment and nodded. “Alright, 1’11 leave first.”

“Wait.” Shi Man smiled helplessly. “But I still remember that the two of us are in the same boat now. You can take my fourth brother’s car and go back with him.”

Yuan Yi, who was about to turn around and leave, immediately widened his eyes and smiled in disbelief. “Alright, 1’11 see you tonight!”

When Chen Wei returned, he happened to see the two of them smiling at each other. A part of his heart suddenly seemed to be blocked and he suddenly felt a little stifled. He slowed down and deliberately pretended not to see anything. He looked out of the window.

Yuan Yi was the first to see him. The polite words he wanted to thank her suddenly changed. “Manman, I have a gift for you tonight. Wait for me tonight.”

Chen Wei suddenly raised his head and looked at the smiling Yuan Yi in shock. His gaze landed on Shi Man unnaturally.

Then, he saw her glance at him lightly with his own eyes. Then, he pursed his lips and smiled. “Alright, I’ll wait for you tonight.”

Chen Wei suddenly understood how ridiculous his misunderstanding in the morning was. It turned out that Su Tang was really just Shi Man’s good friend, and the person in front of her was the person she liked.

He couldn’t tell if he felt relieved or disappointed.

Chen Wei walked back to the classroom under the wall with mixed feelings. When he passed by Su Tang, he even apologized to her very softly.

Su Tang watched in confusion as he quickly returned to his seat. She looked anxiously at the door, but she did not see Shi Man. A bad feeling rose in her heart.

Could it be that Chen Wei had done something to hurt Shi Man? Otherwise, why was he the only one who came back from the rooftop? Why did he apologize to her?

At the thought of this, she couldn’t sit still anymore. She stood up from her seat and rushed out of the classroom in a panic, only to bump into someone.

Shi Man’s chest hurt from her collision and she frowned in frustration. “Where are you going? Didn’t I tell you to stay in the classroom?”

“Huh?” Hearing a familiar voice from above, Su Tang covered her forehead and looked over. Seeing that Shi Man was safe and sound, the grievance on her face immediately turned into joy. “Manman, so you’re fine! You’re not injured, right?”

Shi Man raised her eyebrows and deliberately teased her. “My chest might be injured.”

Su Tang blushed and rubbed her forehead. “I’m sorry. 1 was in a hurry just now and didn’t see the way clearly. Are you in pain? Do you want to take a look in the washroom?”

“What do you think? Are you going to help me check?” She crossed her arms in amusement as she watched the girl blush.

She realized that Su Tang had been blushing in front of her from time to time recently. This shy expression was quite seductive. No wonder she was the female lead in the novel.

Thinking of the plot in the original book, Shi Man felt a headache. The plot had already deviated to this extent. Even the male protagonist, Yi Zheng, who had killed her entire family, was pursuing her relentlessly. She did not know if there would be an even more unexpected plot twist in the future.

However, as long as Yi Zheng had no intention of destroying the Shi family, she could be considered to have changed the tragedy in the book in a strange way and barely completed the mission.

Su Tang did not know what she was thinking. She only felt that Shi Man had been saying ambiguous things from time to time recently, making her flustered.

However, this shouldn’t be the case. The two of them were girls. How could she blush and heartbeat because of Shi Man’s casual words?

Thinking of this, she pouted angrily and rebuked unhappily, “Don’t talk nonsense. If it hurts, go take a look yourself. I’ll go back first.”

Did she even throw a tantrum?

Shi Man smiled helplessly and quickly chased after her to coax her softly. “I’m not spouting nonsense. We’ve all both slept on the same bed. It’s fine for you to take a look, right? Don’t you have everything I have?”

“You!” Su Tang had never seen such a shameless Shi Man. She suddenly stomped her feet and sat back in her seat without looking back, not daring to look at the cheeky Shi Man again..
