Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Gu Nianzhi recalled that Feng Yixi had tapped her on the shoulder, before she passed out That was how Feng Yixi had sabotaged her
It had been just the slightest hint of a prick on her shoulder, but she had felt it all the sa pain and e Yixi had very nearly destroyed her life
Gu Nianzhi was also quick to connect the dots: she had been the top-scorer for the post-grad entrance exaotten second place in the exam, would have reaped the benefits
Gu Nianzhi was already being very lenient with Feng Yixi; anyone in his or her rightfaed themselves by now For noever, Gu Nianzhi had to content herself with denouncing Feng Yixi as her “best friend”
She may be naïve, but she was no fool
Mei Xiaas silent for a while before saying, “Feng Yixi’s reputation has taken quite a beating over the past few days It’s actually best that you cut all ties with her You don’t want her dragging you down”
“What’s wrong with her reputation? Didn’t you just say she’s famous now?” Gu Nianzhi blinked, then cheekily said, as she looked coyly up at hi and uneducated girl”
Mei Xiawen did not respond
Chen Lie had been watching the two of thereat interest He snorted at this “Our dear Nianzhi , but she’s not at all uneducated, is she now, Class Rep Mei?”
Mei Xiawen had gone to pieces at Gu Nianzhi’s coy look, and it ith soether He lowered his head, flustered; he did not trust hiain into Gu Nianzhi’s beautiful, playful eyes He took out his phone, but hesitated for a e to hand it to her “Here, have a look for yourself”
Gu Nianzhi accepted the phone and found herself looking at a photo of herself Mei Xiawen had used her photo as his screensaver She blinked, not knowing how to react She decided to pretend not to have seen it Shethe phone, then handed it back, s “Class Rep, I can’t unlock it”
The phone could only be unlocked with a fingerprint password Of course she couldn’t unlock it
Mei Xiawen serprint to unlock the phone He then took ahold of Gu Nianzhi’s hand and said gently, “Here, enter your fingerprint, too Then you can unlock my phone whenever you like”
Gu Nianzhi was du?
“Class Rep, your phone should be kept private I-I-I don’t want to invade your privacy” Gu Nianzhi tried to extract her hand froo of her hand His gaze was gentle but insistent “I don’t want to keep anything froht to my privacy”
By this time, Gu Nianzhi, as naïve as she was, finally understood as going on, and was now completely flustered
She had never had anyone confess their love to her in such a blatant manner She did not kno to deal with it She looked towards Chen Lie for help
Chen Lie’s eyes crinkled as he laughed and winked at her He whistled, and said, “Our dear little Nianzhi is going to have her first boyfriend! I’m sure your Uncle Huo will be very happy to hear this”
Gu Nianzhi was at a loss for words
Mei Xiawen quickly seized the opportunity to save her fingerprint into his phone and set it up as a secondary password He then opened his Weibo and showed her the latest news on Feng Yixi
