15 Who Can Teach This Guy A Lesson? (2/2)
She turned to Zhao Ming and shouted fiercely, ”Zhao Ming, lend me Xiaofu for tonight. Play the game yourself and don't make him do it, or else I'll punch you!”
Zhao Ming was silent.
Who did he even offend? Why did she want to punch him?
”What are you both doing? Going on a date?” Zhao Ming turned to look at Su Ying, then at Hong Xiaofu...
He finally said, ”It does not seem like it though, what's the occasion?”
”I have been Awakened right? There must be a celebration for it,” Su Ying explained to Zhao Ming. It was not something that had to be kept secret, after all. ”Yesterday, when Xiaofu shouted 'Fighting level, level nine,' he helped me calm my nerves so that I could be Awakened. I have to thank him for that. So we organized a dinner tonight, five o'clock at Shencheng Hotel. Is that okay?”
”Yes, I have to agree with that!” Zhao Ming looked happy, ”How could I refuse a favor to my dearest Class Monitor?”
Then he leaned onto Hong Xiaofu's table and said, with a bright smile, ”Xiaofu, you are truly the Mascot of the class. You even have credit for our Class Monitor's Awakening. Hey, why don't you bring me along tonight? Shencheng Hotel was opened by my family, I can host you!”
Hong Xiaofu was speechless. That guy really owned a goldmine!
”Shencheng Hotel belongs to your family?” Su Ying sounded surprised, ”Such a coincidence?”
”Of course.” Zhao Ming kept nodding and he said, ”My dad said that I must be Awakened. Otherwise, in the future, I will only take over his businesses—two real estate firms, one film company, three hotels, and five malls. How mundane is that? Bring me along please, you have to give me advice on how to be Awakened!”
Su Ying didn't say a word.
Who could teach that guy a lesson?
But it was just a meal all together… it wasn't a ”meet the in-laws” kind of situation. There was nothing to be shy about. Right?
Su Ying turned to Hong Xiaofu and asked, ”Xiaofu, you are fine with it, right?”
”I'm okay with anything.” Hong Xiaofu said while smiling brightly, ”Anyway, I'm not the one paying, I can eat all I want!”
”We'll go with it then!” Zhao Ming was delighted. He smiled and said, ”Be punctual tonight okay? I'll arrange everything for you. Don't worry about it!”
As the three chatted happily, someone from Class 15 burst into the classroom after loitering outside suspiciously for a while. Everyone stared at him curiously as he walked over to Su Ying with trembling hands. He took out a note from his pockets and placed it onto Su Ying's table and said, ”This is from Brother Yang. Take a look at it, quickly!”
”What is this?” Su Ying was curious as she took the note. Before she looked at it, she asked, ”Is this a love letter? I don't want a love letter.”
”No no.” That student deliberately stood further away from Hong Xiaofu, in case he ended up kneeling. He spoke softly, ”It's just a note, you will know once you read it.”
Su Ying opened it and read. She said excitedly, ”Wow! He wants to take me for dinner at Shencheng Hotel tonight, at five o'clock? What a coincidence!”
The student was stunned, so he asked, ”Why is that so?”
Su Ying was grinning from ear to ear as she waved the note. She glanced at Hong Xiaofu and said, ”Xiaofu and I were planning to go there for dinner tonight as well. Are you sure that Zhang Yang wants to go?”
