Chapter 54 What is the charm? Please explain it to her
Cheng Xingzhou felt that the solid values he had formed over the past eighteen years were suffering a huge impact.
He stood there, jaw set, staring at their clasped hands without blinking. Beside him, Fu Haoyao clearly hadn't recovered from the sudden incident either. Fu Liangxia was led out by Fu Langshu. The corridor outside was packed with people.
They were all handsome young men, including the school's most popular F4 and a young talent who lived in legend. They seemed to have a certain air of dignity that made them seem out of place. Their appearance immediately attracted a lot of attention.
But none of them were shaken by the scrutiny around them.
Especially Cheng Xingzhou, who always remained calm even in the face of a catastrophe. He stared at a certain place in front of him with a gloomy look as if a storm was about to come.
Liang Huiming noticed Fu Langshu almost the moment he appeared at the elevator door. His eyes slowly swept across the two people in front of him, and finally stopped on Fu Langshu and Fu Liangxia.
Liang Huiming's lips curled up slowly, as if he'd discovered something interesting. His smile was filled with the air of watching a play. For a moment, he seemed the most relaxed and indifferent person in this world.
He strolled out of the elevator and casually placed his arm on Fu Liangxia's shoulder.
The crowd that was originally in a state of confrontation suddenly looked at him, their scorching gazes almost piercing through his arms.
The smile in Liang Huiming's eyes deepened, the curve of his mouth becoming more exaggerated. Fu Liangxia didn't react when he put his arm around her shoulder. The force wasn't strong enough, more like he was floating in the air, just pretending.
What does he want to test?
She frowned slightly.
Liang Huiming rested his elbow on her shoulder, but his words were directed to Fu Langshu. His eyes were cold, and upon closer inspection, his pupils resembled those of a snake, emitting a dangerous aura.
He smiled exaggeratedly and said, "Ah, our President Fu is so heartless. He only has eyes for his girlfriend and has forgotten about me, his good friend."
There was grievance in his voice: "Mr. Fu is really disheartening."
"Do you still need my entertainment? Isn't the president of the Saint Lande Student Union standing right next to you?" Fu Langshu glanced at him indifferently, unmoved.
Cheng Xingzhou came back to his senses after being reminded by someone and said politely, "That's right. If Mr. Liang needs anything, you can let me know."
"Wow!" Liang Huiming turned his attention to him as if he had seen something unusual, and raised his eyebrows. "You are really... dedicated."
What a great patience! He exclaimed in his heart.
Cheng Xingzhou froze under his gaze, but his upbringing had taught him not to reveal his true emotions in front of others, so he simply nodded slightly: "Thank you for the compliment."
All the bitterness seemed to have been completely hidden in his eyes as his state changed.
"..." Liang Huiming stared at him for a few seconds, as if to confirm that the other party would not explode, but would become even calmer.
He couldn't help but curl his lips in boredom: "I just happen to have something to do, please help me."
As they talked, the two of them left this troubled place while chatting. Liang Huiming did not forget to turn around and glance at the two of them before leaving, but Cheng Xingzhou did not turn his head the whole time, as if he was indifferent.
After Liang Huiming left, Fu Langshu naturally let go of her hand and turned to instruct Fu Haoyao, "We've reserved the first two rows of VIP seats in the lecture hall. Take her there."
At this time, Fu Langshu returned to his natural state as an elder.
"Of course I know." Since the interruption just now, the more Fu Haoyao looked at his brother, the more he felt that his eyebrows were not eyebrows and his eyes were not eyes.
What's going on between them? Why does his brother call Fu Liangxia "Xiao Xia" and act so intimately with her?
Fu Haoyao instinctively didn't want the two of them to stay together anyway, so he lowered his head towards her and said, "Let me take you there first. My brother must be busy with other things."
"Okay." Fu Liangxia glanced at Fu Langshu, earning a faint smile. She turned and followed Fu Haoyao out, asking on the way, "You didn't sign up, so why are you here to listen to this?"
Given Fu Haoyao's personality, he was used to being unrestrained. Even if his brother was giving a presentation, he wouldn't have felt the need to attend. Fu Liangxia was curious about what could have made someone who was usually restless come to listen to this almost boring presentation.
Fu Haoyao's mind was still on the hand she had just held with his brother. He felt a mixture of emotions, but he didn't show any displeasure towards her. He looked ahead and said, "I just happened to have nothing to do, so I came over to take a look."
In fact, he guessed that she might come to see him, so he wanted to try his luck.
But now it seems that he has done something unnecessary. Fu Liangxia came to this seminar not just for the competition, but also for some other reason.
Fu Haoyao's eyes gradually dimmed, but suddenly he remembered something and his eyes lit up again: "How do you know I didn't participate in the competition?"
She cared about him so much? She even went out of her way to inquire about his situation?
Fu Haoyao felt so happy that his heart was bubbling with joy, but the next second, the bubble was burst by someone.
"You know what I'm thinking." Fu Liangxia looked up at him and said calmly in a matter-of-fact tone, "With your math grades, you shouldn't have to worry about math competitions for the time being."
Fu Haoyao's expression froze, and he gritted his teeth secretly: "Ah, yes, I just have poor grades, so it's normal for you to dislike me. It's also natural for you to like my brother!"
As he spoke, he suddenly strode forward, walked quickly to the VIP seat, and sat down.
However, even though he was so angry, he did not forget to leave a seat for Fu Liangxia. He sat on the seat in a very twisted posture, waiting for her to come in.
“…”
Fu Liangxia is hard to describe in words.
Although she guessed his feelings from his favorability and his various behaviors, Fu Haoyao obviously did not realize clearly where this emotion came from. He often behaved like a primary school kid, unexpectedly childish.
Fu Haoyao was stunned for a moment, not quite reacting. He looked at her with his eyes: "Then you still... still let him hold your hand? Isn't this something that only two people in love can do?"
"It's just holding hands, just like being ordinary friends is fine." Fu Liangxia sat down next to him and suddenly stretched out a hand to hold his. "Look, didn't we hold hands too?"
Fu Haoyao was dumbfounded.
He stared at the place where their fingers touched, his mind went blank. It seemed that only that one point of the sensory nerves in his body was working properly. The perception of other parts of his body disappeared, and only the touch of the girl's delicate skin could be felt.
As smooth as silk, it had a completely different feel to him.
"Bang, bang, bang—"
Heartbeat out of control.
Fu Haoyao stood there stiffly for a few seconds, and suddenly remembered a word the other party had just said, "ordinary friends."
So, he is just an ordinary friend.
"Where is Fu Langshu?" Fu Haoyao rarely called his brother by his full name, unless he was in a bad mood.
"What?" Fu Liangxia asked in confusion.
"Is Fu Langshu just an ordinary friend?" he asked.
"Of course." Fu Liangxia looked even more puzzled. "What else could it be?"
A smile reappeared on Fu Haoyao's face, and his pointed little canine teeth were exposed from the corners of his lips, showing his owner's good mood: "No, of course, we can only be ordinary friends. My brother is so old, you two are not a match at all."
"...Does your brother know that you are talking about him like this?" Fu Liangxia was helpless.
Fu Haoyao stretched out his body and leaned back in his chair comfortably: "Who cares?"
…
The briefing was more interesting than expected. Fu Langshu had a natural dry sense of humor, and Liang Huiming was a man who never let a dull moment pass. The style of a normal briefing was lively and not as rigid as usual.
However, as Fu Liangxia already knew, the content itself was not much different from the original book. Those who achieved a certain ranking could still intern at Fushi. However, this time, it seemed that due to Liang Huiming's involvement, Huiming Technology was added as an internship company.
But these are not the issues that Fu Liangxia should think about. By the time the competition finals are over, she will have already participated in the seminar in Hai City at the end of the month. Maybe she will have some other situations by then.
As Fu Liangxia thought about this, she suddenly remembered that she hadn't opened the reward for the quest she had completed after defeating Su Xingshu. Just as she was about to find a quiet place to think slowly, a voice suddenly rang out from the corner of the wall in front of her.
"Ah, isn't this our very popular Miss Fu?"
Fu Liangxia looked up at the sound and saw Liang Huiming's highly recognizable face appear before her.
She didn't know why the other party called her out specifically, nor did she know why the other party was waiting in such a corner. It couldn't be that he was trying to block her.
Fu Liangxia: "Mr. Liang, you're joking. I have something else to do. I won't disturb you."
She always felt that there was a dangerous aura about this person that disgusted her. Now she regretted not taking the right path because there were too many people around and ended up running into him.
Liang Huiming smiled and said, "That's unfortunate. I'd like to take up two minutes of Miss Fu's time. Is that inconvenient?"
The other party asked if it was inconvenient, but he didn't move his body blocking the way, which was obviously not a questioning gesture.
Fu Liangxia calmed down and asked, "What's the matter?"
"I just have a small doubt, and I'd like Miss Fu to answer it for me." Liang Huiming circled around her and finally stopped in front of her. He bent down slightly, his eyes level with hers, his breath pouring on her face, and a wicked light flashed in his beautiful eyes.
"Miss Fu, what is it about your charm that makes so many people fall for you, yet they don't quarrel with each other?"
Fu Liangxia was not surprised that the other party could notice it, but she felt puzzled that he pointed it out to her. Was he dissatisfied with the relationship between her and Fu Langshu and came to provoke her?
She doesn't think so.
What is the purpose of that?
Fu Liangxia smiled: "I don't quite understand what Mr. Liang said, and I don't think I have any charm. As for the so-called many people falling for me, I think Mr. Liang misunderstood."
However, the other party was not fooled by her words.
He suddenly stretched out his fingers and gently pinched her chin. Her pretty face appeared before his eyes again. He smiled slowly and said, "No, you know."
