Chapter 71: A Beauty from Behind
I don’t know if this guy recognized me, he even knew I had roommates, but Liu Ting is currently seriously injured and can’t care about that much.
"Alright, it’s getting late. Hurry to the pharmacy to buy some medicine, or you might not see the sun tomorrow." Chen Tianlong smiled and walked towards the alley entrance.
Watching Chen Tianlong’s figure gradually disappear into the night, Liu Ting took a deep breath. This guy was like a mysterious man, making her somewhat perplexed.
After getting into the car, Chen Tianlong went straight back to school. It was already past ten at night, which wasn’t too late. Zhao Lei was fiercely playing games.
After saying hello, Chen Tianlong returned to his room, rushed into the bathroom, took a shower, played on his phone for a bit, and then fell asleep.
Time quickly passed, and it was already noon the next day.
After class, just as Chen Tianlong was about to have lunch, Lin Wushuang called out to him. Scratching his head, somewhat clueless, Chen Tianlong asked, "Miss, is there something you need?"
"Uh, I need you to do me a favor and return this notebook to the class representative of Class Three," Lin Wushuang said flatly.
"Oh? Why don’t you return it yourself?" Chen Tianlong was puzzled. Why would she find someone else to return something? He wasn’t a delivery boy.
"Because... because... oh, just go as I asked, why ask so many questions?" Lin Wushuang hesitated, unable to find a better explanation, revealing her assertiveness directly.
Actually, it was because she didn’t want to see someone, and that someone was Hao Jian. Apart from Mo Shaoyun, Hao Jian was another suitor of hers previously.
She was supposed to return the notebook to the class representative of Class Three today, but thinking of possibly being pestered by Hao Jian later made her feel very irritated.
"As you command, Class Rep!"
Seeing a trace of anger in Lin Wushuang’s beautiful eyes, Chen Tianlong immediately realized that anyone could be offended, but women shouldn’t be provoked. Their moods changed like the weather in June, fickle and unpredictable.
Chen Tianlong casually flipped through the notebook, discovering the handwriting was very neat. He thought it must belong to a meticulous person and naturally had a good impression of the owner.
Class Three wasn’t very far from Class One, just a couple of doors down. Considering it was a mere effort, Chen Tianlong walked straight into the Class Three classroom with the notebook.
Only about three or four people were left in the classroom, and the class representative of Class Three, accustomed to being the last to leave, was naturally still there.
"Excuse me, are any of you lovely ladies the class representative?"
After entering the classroom, Chen Tianlong saw two girls sitting at the back, whispering to each other. Their silhouettes looked pretty good.
However, when the two "lovely ladies" turned around, Chen Tianlong was startled, almost tripping over. Their backs looked like beauties, but their faces...
"Hey handsome, are you calling me?"
One of the girls, with a square face and several moles, had a faint mustache, possibly due to excess testosterone.
"Uh... I’m asking if your class rep is here?"
Chen Tianlong wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and asked again.
"Oh, she’s over there!"
The flower-like beauty, seeing that Chen Tianlong wasn’t addressing her, looked a bit disappointed, waved her hand, and said with her rough voice.
With a bitter smile, Chen Tianlong quickly walked inside towards a girl in the front row. Although he’d only taken a few steps, he felt the girl’s back seemed familiar, but he couldn’t recall where he’d seen it.
"Are you the class representative?"
"What do you want?"
The girl didn’t turn around, coldly responding. However, immediately after speaking, she felt something was wrong. The voice sounded familiar.
The girl quickly looked up, and when their eyes met, both were stunned.
"It’s you!"
They almost spoke in unison, eyes full of disbelief.
The class representative of Class Three was none other than Wu Mengting, who had been through craziness with Chen Tianlong.
Upon seeing each other, both were shocked. Sometimes, you couldn’t help but marvel at how fate works in mysterious ways.
Seeing Chen Tianlong at that moment, Wu Mengting’s pretty face turned bright red. Although they hadn’t met for long, they had a preliminary understanding of each other. Chen Tianlong had even proclaimed that he wanted Wu Mengting to be his girlfriend. Thinking back now, she couldn’t help feeling shy.
"You’re the class rep for Class Three?"
Looking at the beauty in front of him, Chen Tianlong was surprised. After all, people often said that beautiful girls were mindless, only focused on dressing up, right?
But not only was she beautiful, she was also the class representative. A class rep couldn’t be bad at studying, could they?
Hearing Chen Tianlong’s doubtful tone, Wu Mengting calmly nodded and said, "Yes, I’m the class rep for Class Three. What brings you here, Chen Tianlong?"
Although Chen Tianlong wasn’t bad, he had decent character, so Wu Mengting had a good impression of him.
Hearing this, Chen Tianlong explained, "Our class rep, Lin Wushuang, asked me to give this to you."
With that, Chen Tianlong handed the notebook to Wu Mengting.
Seeing this, Wu Mengting reached out her white, soft hand to take the notebook. But being a bit nervous, her hand accidentally touched Chen Tianlong’s.
"Soft and tender, feels nice," Chen Tianlong thought, but didn’t show it on his face.
After taking the notebook, Wu Mengting quickly retracted her hand, still feeling embarrassed but managing to keep her composure. She said, "Thank you, Chen Tianlong. Is there anything else?"
Hearing this, Chen Tianlong shook his head and was about to leave. But after a couple of steps, he turned back and said, "You said you’d repay me, right? How about tonight?"
"Huh? Tonight?"
Chen Tianlong’s words were easily misunderstood. "I meant a gift or some substantial way of thanking you."
After saying this, Wu Mengting couldn’t lift her head, afraid of seeing Chen Tianlong’s eyes and feeling embarrassed.
"Haha, I was asking you to treat me to a great meal tonight, okay? I heard there’s a seafood restaurant at the snack street near the school gate, and it’s really good," Chen Tianlong said, understanding Wu Mengting’s thoughts.
"..."
Wu Mengting was speechless. She thought Chen Tianlong would have some difficult request, but it turned out to be just for a meal.
"Alright, but I think lunch would be better, as I have plans tonight," Wu Mengting replied.
"Sure, anytime is fine. I’m available whenever you are," Chen Tianlong smiled, his good impression of Wu Mengting growing stronger.
"You said it, no backing out," Wu Mengting quickly responded, clearly more relaxed without the earlier awkwardness.
"Don’t worry, I don’t have many flaws; if anything, I guess it would be being too honest," Chen Tianlong shamelessly said.
"Pfft..."
Wu Mengting couldn’t believe that this previously aloof Chen Tianlong could be so amusing.
After arranging their plans, Wu Mengting quickly packed up and followed Chen Tianlong out of the classroom.
