Several other girls who were close to Xie Xiao also spoke up.
Although they don't understand, they don't have the audacity of these siblings to think that others should help them for free.
Moreover, they often drink milk tea with Mingzhuo, and they only recently found out that even Xie Xiao wanted a talisman, so she paid for it from Mingzhuo.
No one owes you anything, and nothing is obligatory.
"Zhuozhuo is a cultivator; it must be difficult for her to draw these kinds of talismans, right?"
“I have heard that practitioners are most afraid of getting involved in karma, as it will hinder their practice. Therefore, they must accept money to sever karma.”
"You should charge money. When you go to a temple to pray to the Buddha, you have to pay for admission and incense, right?"
"If I give it to you, will I have to give it to someone else? And that person has relatives and friends. Won't Zhuozhuo be exhausted?"
Fu Xinyue was surprised that everyone would side with Ming Zhuo, and she immediately felt embarrassed.
"Sorry, I didn't know these rules. Never mind, I won't buy it. I can't afford it."
Fu Xinyue put away her phone and hurriedly pulled Fu Xing, "Brother, let's go."
Seeing that he couldn't gain any advantage, Fu Xing was also filled with anger.
Are these people stupid? They actually sided with Mingzhuo and agreed that he should take money, instead of going along with them and letting Mingzhuo give each person a free ticket so that everyone could benefit.
Knowing that those people were still watching them, he snatched the amulet from Fu Xinyue's hand and casually threw it into the nearby trash can.
"It's so dirty, and you're still holding it? Are you stupid? People treat you like a beggar, but you treat them like classmates."
Behind the greenery on the other side, Li Huili had just hung up the phone when she saw someone throw the amulet into the trash can.
She quickly went around to pick up the amulet and wiped away the shoe prints on it.
Xie Xiao ran over just then: "Teacher Li?"
Li Huili looked up at Pei Di, who was walking out from the other side of the hotel lobby, and smiled at Xie Xiao, saying, "It's okay, this amulet is still usable, so give it to me."
He carefully put the amulet in his pocket and waved goodbye to the students.
Seeing this, Mingzhuo thought it was for the best, so he didn't step forward to stop it.
However, in that brief glance, she noticed an interesting phenomenon: after Fu Xing threw away the amulet, his and Fu Xinyue's expressions changed, as if their desire for food would bring disaster upon them.
Before she could get a closer look, the two men had already turned and left.
Xie Xiao followed Ming Zhuo's gaze and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with those two?"
Mingzhuo thought for a moment: "I don't know if it counts as a problem since we're not siblings."
Everyone: "!!!"
"Of course it counts, why would they lie to people?" Xie Xiao came to her senses.
The other girls exchanged glances, and immediately began to guess what was going on in their minds.
One girl said, "Are they dating? Fu Xinyue probably doesn't want others to know, that's why she said that."
Others disagreed: "Just say you're dating, why hide it? They've already graduated high school, nobody cares about them anymore."
"Yeah, there are already several couples in the class, and the homeroom teacher didn't say anything even though she found out."
If you can openly bring someone to your classmates, why keep it a secret? Is that really okay?
Mingzhuo listened with great interest, "Several couples have formed in the class, who's with whom?"
When Mingzhuo said goodbye to Xie Xiao and the others, he was still a little reluctant to leave. He had really eaten a lot of gossip today!
The love and hate among high school students can actually be turned into a melodramatic prime-time soap opera!
Gu Xu came over and saw Ming Zhuo chatting happily with his friend, so he sat down to the side without disturbing him.
He waited until it was over before walking over to Zhuozhuo.
Mingzhuo's heart, which was restless from having just tasted fresh melons, lit up immediately when she saw Gu Xu, "Ah Xu!"
She happily shared various gossip with Gu Xu, "I just heard several relationship rumors..."
As she talked, she realized that the story didn't seem particularly new or unusual, and since Gu Xu didn't know the people involved, he probably wouldn't be interested.
He's a boss who manages a large company, dealing with all sorts of plans and financial statements every day. He has no interest in caring about the love and hate of high school students.
But Gu Xu listened very attentively. When she stopped, he looked up and asked, "And then?"
Mingzhuo: "Don't you find it boring?"
Gu Xu shook her head: "How could that be? What you said is very interesting. Besides, you have a willingness to share with me, which is very precious, and I'm very happy."
But in my heart I was thinking, you didn't choose to share with Li Wenhe, your classmate, first, but chose me instead. Does that mean that I hold a heavier place in your heart?
On an occasion like today, there are many guests to entertain. Mingzhuo will be in charge of entertaining the classmates, and Li Wenhe can help.
However, Gu Xu was seated at the main table. His status was extraordinary, and most of the people who came to chat with him were a generation older than him, so he naturally didn't have the chance to sit at the same table as Ming Zhuo.
He didn't know if it was because he had been drinking, but looking at Li Wenhe standing next to Mingzhuo, he felt a strange mix of emotions.
He had always known what Li Wenhe's feelings were for Ming Zhuo, and he understood even more clearly the other party's subtle fear and rejection of him.
The reason I remained inactive before wasn't because I didn't care, but because I cared too much. That's why I held back and didn't want anyone to notice.
Mingzhuo: "It's mainly because you're such a nice person, very tolerant of others, and I feel very relaxed around you."
Gu Xu's eyes remained calm and clear, but no one knew that he was already somewhat clouded.
The alcohol, combined with the subtle fragrance emanating from Mingzhuo and his bright eyes, made him feel slightly tipsy.
