G1024 High-Speed Train.
“Dear passengers, hello, the next stop is Ming City South. Passengers who need to get off, please…”
“Dear passengers…”
As the voice of the train’s announcement played, a group of young people, who had been dozing off in a certain area of seats, suddenly came back to life.
“Finally back!”
“I didn’t expect to be away for so long. This time’s dispute was quite tricky, even the professor had to step in and it took over ten days. But I did learn a lot…”
“Don’t talk to me about this now, I just want to quickly have a bowl of small pot rice noodles. After staying in Zhe Province for so long, I feel like my taste buds have degenerated. Who eats seafood without chili?”
“Exactly, exactly!”
While a few girls were chatting away, one of them, wearing heavy makeup, glanced at a distracted boy sitting next to her and laughed with hidden sarcasm.
“Gu Xiaoming, still craning your neck to look?”
When they were returning due to the ticket scramble, the five girls and one boy sat in one area, while Ding Yi and Jiang Mo, along with Professor Wang Hongying and another teaching assistant, sat farther away diagonally.
The girl speaking was Lu Ping, who considered herself to be once Professor Wang Hongying’s favorite student.
The reason for adding “once” was that ever since the first day Ding Yi met the professor, she had the self-awareness of “status -1.”
“Professor Wang, I really don’t know what you like, so I followed the ancient tradition and presented you with the Six Gifts of Tuition. If you don’t like any of them, please don’t mind~”
At that time, in a small classroom, Lu Ping and the others watched wide-eyed as that bright-faced girl took out what she called the “Six Gifts of Tuition.”
Givanchy limited edition perfume, SK-II essence set, handmade bird’s nest gift box, Chanel’s new scarf, Zeus second generation beauty device, and a piece of Ice Jade Bracelet whose price they couldn’t estimate…
You call this the Six Gifts of Tuition?
Don’t think we won’t Google it!
The proper Six Gifts of Tuition should be something like lotus seeds, red beans, right?
Even so, the key point was that Ding Yi also prepared valuable gifts for them, her seniors, and for Gu Xiaoming, the only senior brother.
Perfect family background, coupled with perfect looks, sweet words, and knowing her place, they couldn’t even muster any jealousy and were already somewhat confusedly acknowledging this junior sister.
Ding Yi could be ignored, as this junior sister was indeed quite nice… but what about Jiang Mo?
She was supposed to sit in Jiang Mo’s seat, but before she could speak, Professor Wang was already pulling Jiang Mo warmly to sit down, giving her no chance at all.
Lu Ping couldn’t figure it out.
At least up until two weeks ago, Jiang Mo was still like a transparent person in their circle.
She didn’t fit in, and no one indulged her, Professor Wang Hongying similarly didn’t like her, and only Gu Xiaoming, that silly guy, was always trying to be nice to her, but only ended up getting snubbed.
Following his gaze to the girl quietly leaning by the window, looking like a photo in a magazine, Lu Ping felt a surge of jealousy.
Beauty was secondary, but recently she seemed to be on the verge of turning into a wealthy, beautiful woman…
No matter how much they tried to deny it, they couldn’t possibly call an LV new bag a knockoff, not to mention the GUCCI white sneakers and the Balenciaga DOUBLE SLEEVE short coat…
That was one of her favorite clothes.
She really was infuriating!
“I’m not looking at her…”
Hearing Lu Ping’s teasing smile, Gu Xiaoming withdrew his gaze, his expression a bit unnatural.
“I saw you bringing her coffee that day and didn’t even go into the room, right?”
Seeing Gu Xiaoming deny it, Lu Ping giggled, “You were stubbornly staying outside. If it weren’t for Junior Sister Ding helping you out, how were you planning to end it?”
Caught, Gu Xiaoming’s face flushed for a moment, but he didn’t continue to hide it, only said softly, “I was just a bit upset, after all, I was being nice…”
“More like had ulterior motives, right?”
Lu Ping said disdainfully, “Didn’t you give up before? So now, realizing her family might actually be rich, you’re getting interested again?”
“It has nothing to do with that. I just don’t understand why she’s always so distant. Even if it was just a regular senior-junior interaction, she didn’t have to be so cold-faced all the time, did she?”
Gu Xiaoming complained somewhat indignantly.
“She just doesn’t care about you, what else… we’re there!”
Lu Ping sneered, seeing Gu Xiaoming dispirited, a hint of satisfaction in her eyes, she stood up to end the conversation.
One by one, the group disembarked and, upon reaching the exit, Ding Yi asked Jiang Mo, “Jiang Senior Sister, are you sure you don’t need me to give you a ride?”
Jiang Mo hesitated briefly, but ultimately shook her head, “No need.”
“Okay then, see you all!”
Ding Yi waved at everyone, taking Professor Wang to a Mercedes-Maybach S680 by the roadside.
The other girls either hailed taxis or had friends pick them up, leaving with laughter.
Jiang Mo stood alone, holding her phone, her aloof features looking out of touch with the world, but there seemed to be a hint of confusion in her eyes.
Because… she wasn’t sure where she was supposed to go.
Should she go straight back to the hotel?
But it’s been over two weeks; Zhou Wang shouldn’t be there anymore, right?
She asked Zhou Wang in advance, but he hadn’t replied to her.
To be precise, since this morning, Zhou Wang hadn’t responded to her messages at all.
This inexplicably stirred a sense of panic within Jiang Mo, even helplessness.
She completely forgot that she had over ten thousand left in her WeChat balance, which meant that even if she ignored that bastard Zhou, she could go anywhere…
Ding dong!
Just then, her phone rang.
Jiang Mo’s eyes lit up, because it was a message from her pinned contact.
“B2E area 69, hurry up!”
There was also a photo of the parking lot, taken at the parking space.
Jiang Mo looked up to figure out the direction, but couldn’t immediately find the way to the parking lot. She walked quickly and tripped over her suitcase, nearly falling.
Jiang Mo was a little anxious, why wasn’t there any visible sign nearby?
“Jiang Mo, can’t you catch a taxi? Why not come with me?”
At this moment, Gu Xiaoming, who had been standing by due to certain unwillingness and was reluctant to leave, sensed an opportunity approaching and rushed over to ask.
“Do you know how to get to the parking lot?”
“I’m just heading to the parking lot myself, my friend is picking me up…”
Gu Xiaoming quickly said, “Let’s go this way, it might not be easy to find from here. I’ll show you the way.”
“Thank you.”
Jiang Mo let out a breath, her expression relaxed slightly, nodding to Gu Xiaoming.
She actually thanked me!
Gu Xiaoming adjusted his glasses, his mood instantly lifting, and he wondered if it was his illusion, but Jiang Mo seemed to have smiled?
On the way, with some regained confidence, Gu Xiaoming tried to strike up a conversation with Jiang Mo.
Although Jiang Mo seemed obviously distracted, what encouraged Gu Xiaoming was that she occasionally responded.
Even though it felt a bit like polite small talk, compared to the past where conversations often ended abruptly as soon as he started, this was undoubtedly a historic improvement…
Gradually, Gu Xiaoming found his confidence as the law prodigy of Cai University, chatting away, but…
Why was Jiang Mo walking so fast?
But given her long legs, it was understandable.
Arriving at the B2 level of the parking lot, Jiang Mo was looking at the photo and searching, and soon she heard honking. But when she turned happily, she didn’t see the expected figure.
Instead, another boy leaning against a BMW 3 Series not far away was waving to Gu Xiaoming, with a surprised look on his face.
Is that girl beside Gu Xiaoming seriously that pretty?
What does Gu Xiaoming have to deserve this…
Seeing the boy with an “I can’t believe you” expression, Gu Xiaoming just gave a nonchalant smile, pretending not to care, and signaled the boy to wait.
“Jiang Mo, your friend isn’t here yet? Want to ride with us…”
“No, thank you.”
Jiang Mo didn’t look at him, just kept moving, her eyes searching everywhere.
“Hey…”
Already caught up in his own head, Gu Xiaoming still wanted to persistently persuade her, but suddenly, a honk with powerful penetration sounded behind them.
Beep!
“Damn it!”
Startled, Gu Xiaoming turned to complain, but saw the conspicuous “three-pointed star” emblem.
A G-Wagon?
The curse words on Gu Xiaoming’s lips were swallowed back down.
Bang!
The next moment, the car door opened, and a boy who, at first glance, made Gu Xiaoming feel a bit inferior, stepped out.
But quickly, Gu Xiaoming straightened his chest. So what if you drove a G-Wagon, I have Jiang Mo right beside me…
Even though Jiang Mo and he had no relationship, with such a beautiful woman just standing next to you, it was enough to fill you with immense pride in front of bystanders.
That was Gu Xiaoming’s state of mind at that moment.
However, in the next second, he saw Jiang Mo release her suitcase and walk briskly toward that boy. After a few steps, Jiang Mo stopped.
She gazed at the boy, seemingly calm, but from Zhou Wang’s perspective, he could see her eyes filled with helplessness, with a hint of joy, a flutter of fear, and a trace of attachment.
Her gaze was so complex that Zhou Wang could only decipher so much…
He glanced at Gu Xiaoming, who still hadn’t figured out the situation, and paid him no attention.
This guy, at first glance, was clingy; there were plenty of them, nothing special.
He just approached Jiang Mo, stood there looking at her, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.
“Senior sister, you’re not being obedient. Didn’t I tell you what to do when you see me?”
Hearing Zhou Wang’s low voice, Jiang Mo blushed, and what made her feel more embarrassed was that there were two strangers in sight.
But after a brief struggle, she moved forward and embraced Zhou Wang’s neck, softly whispering with a trembling tone,
“Honey, please… kiss me.”
She looked up at Zhou Wang, slowly parting her rosy lips.
