Chapter 175 : Server Enemy No. 1 23 (2/2)
A loud smack rang out, attracting the attention of the students who were passing by.
Shi Sheng hadn’t used much strength; after all, this body of hers wasn’t exactly strong enough to exert a lot of force. It was just that the sound was a bit loud so it seemed painful.
Mo Mo could only feel a bit of tingling on her face, no pain whatsoever. But still—
To be slapped like that in front of so many people…wasn’t it shameful?
“Oh my god!”
“Heavens! It’s him!!! Since when did my idol come back to school?!”
“Senior Dongfang’s giving a speech for today’s freshman orientation, didn’t you know?”
“Why didn’t anybody tell me about such an important thing?? Thank God I met him here, else I would’ve missed the chance to meet him in person! Ah! He’s sooo handsome!”
Out of nowhere, sounds of excited gasps and chatter from nearby girls came up.
Shi Sheng inwardly groaned. ‘I knew plot-sama would do this…
Male lead has to show up whenever the female lead meets the supporting female lead…’
A youth walked across the bridge over the artificial lake, his gaze seemed to float over in Sang Yu’s direction yet at the same time not.
He paused slightly before heading towards them and stopping beside Shi Sheng. “Junior Chu.”
Shi Sheng blinked innocently. ‘Did the ML know Chu Yunxi? What did he just come over to greet me for???’
She dug through Chu Yunxi’s memories and finally managed to find something relevant.
The Chu Family and the Dongfang Family were business partners. Chu Yunxi’s father would sometimes bring her to some of the more relaxed parties that were held, so it wasn’t strange to think that Dongfang Li might’ve met her at one of those parties.
Only…
‘The reason this fellow suddenly approached me is because of the female lead, isn’t it? He should’ve learned about her identity by now, so he came back to the school…
But because he’s afraid of scaring her off, he uses me as an icebreaker first…
Fuck! I suddenly feel very annoyed!’
“You are?” Shi Sheng gave her signature slight smile.
Dongfang Li’s lips frowned imperceptibly. “Does Junior Chu not remember me?”
‘You really think you’re a glowing little sun that everyone revolves around?!’
“I had to?”
Dongfang Li was stumped for words.
He had only met Chu Yunxi once. Though it had been a while, it had never once crossed his mind that it was possible for her to forget him.
His gaze swept over the files Sang Yu had picked up and shoved back into Mo Mo’s hands before he very naturally changed the topic. “You’re the junior in charge of delivering these?”
Mo Mo nodded her head dumbly.
“I’m going to the auditorium too. Let’s go together.”
“Ah?” With such a fine specimen of the male species in front of her, Mo Mo couldn’t even remember the fact that she had just been slapped. She felt her face burning as she stuttered, “O-okay.”
“Junior Chu, do you want to tag along?”
“Not free.”
‘I’m not going to go watch the male and female leads flirt! I could lose control at any moment… And that’s not good.’
#Single dog’s bitterness#
The only reason Dongfang Li had asked at all was because he didn’t want to make it seem like he was deliberately trying to get close to Sang Yu. Hence, he was rather pleased that Shi Sheng rejected his offer. ‘What a sensible little junior. I’ll forgive her for not remembering me.’
