Chapter 148 Demanding Gifts



laboratory.

The data on the computer screen was still jumping around. Yu Wan put down her pen, stretched, and two crystal tears instantly welled up in her tired, red eyes.

Ji Ting walked over at some point and asked, "Yu Yu, do you want to go to the cafeteria for lunch together?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Wan glanced at him sideways and said, "I'm not going."

Staring into those shimmering eyes, Ji Ting's cheeks gradually flushed, and he stammered, "Should I... bring you... some food?"

"No need, I have lunch." Yu Wan looked away uninterestedly, lazily picked up the instant noodles on the table, skillfully opened the lid, and squeezed in all the ingredients. A section of her fair, slender wrist was revealed from her sleeve.

"Eating this isn't healthy." Ji Ting felt a pang of heartache and shook his head in disapproval: "I'll go to the cafeteria and get you three dishes and a soup instead."

The thought of Yu Wan's purpose in saving time made my chest feel tight and uncomfortable.

Yu Wan paused, stood up, and said to him directly, "Ji Ting, don't waste your time on me. Besides, your current behavior is already causing me trouble."

Putting aside emotional factors, Yu Wan actually admired Ji Ting's talent and ability in physics. Such a person should dedicate his passion and energy to his favorite career, rather than wasting it on a relationship that could not be reciprocated.

The color drained from Ji Ting's face in an instant.

Yu Wan casually picked up the instant noodles and her phone from the table and walked towards the tea room.

After everyone left, Ji Ting was suddenly tapped on the shoulder. He looked up and saw the beautiful, icy-cold girl in front of him, and his mind nearly exploded. His expression stiffened for a moment, then an awkward look appeared: "When did you get here? Did you hear everything?"

Guan Kui nodded: "Mm."

Before arriving at the Fusijia Experimental Base, she had heard countless stories about Ji Ting and Y, but she never expected to see this scene.

To be honest, Guan Kui admired Y's decisiveness and straightforwardness, which left room for imagination and was completely unlike what the people in the lab had told her about playing hard to get and deliberately keeping Ji Ting hanging.

Ji Ting forced a smile: "You used to say I had low emotional intelligence and that my love life would be unlucky. Now it's just as you wished." For more than twenty years, his first love had completely ended without a trace.

Guan Kui didn't laugh at him, but simply pointed to her shoulder: "Here, you can lean on it."

After filling the hot water container, Yu Wan stuck a fork into the lid and sat down by the window. She had just unlocked her phone when a barrage of text messages and missed calls popped up because it was in Do Not Disturb mode. She scrolled through them from the most recent to the last.

[Meng Xiaoshen: Don't worry about what's happening online. I believe you didn't cheat.]

[Huang San: @Sister Yu, you're awesome! You actually got first place in the whole school! You've made us so proud.]

[I'm the boss in the city: @Sister Yu, academic genius, please sign my autograph!]

[Cao Jin: @Sister Yu, 666! I'll pray to Sister Yu for all my exams from now on, and I'll pass every subject!]

[...]

[Tang Gou: Congratulations! Well deserved.]

[Old Man Yu: Well done, daughter! You've made your dad so proud. What kind of gift do you want? A yacht? Or a private island?]

"..."

Has the truth about the exam already been revealed?

Yu Wan's heart skipped a beat. She scrolled to the very end and finally saw Rong Yun's text message.

[Teacher Rong: I'm sorry.]

[Teacher Rong: I didn't keep my promise.]

[Teacher Rong: I'm sorry, I didn't know someone leaked this information online. I asked someone to take it down as soon as possible, but it's too late. Also, the school's punishment for He Yan and others has been issued: a public warning and a major demerit.]

There were still seven missed calls from Rong Yun on her phone, the most recent one being an hour ago.

Yu Wan pursed her lips and replied to him first: 【It's okay.】

Just as it was delivered, Rong Jun called.

"I'm sorry, teacher broke my promise. Here's what happened..." Rong Jun was quite annoyed. He had already made arrangements with the school, but he didn't expect someone to cause a scene on the forum. When he asked Tang Yue to help investigate, he found that it was Wu Pinglan's niece who posted the message.

Wu Pinglan's niece is the same student who publicly challenged Yu Wan in class and made a bet with her.

In response to her actions, in addition to a demerit from the school, the Yu Group immediately sent a lawyer's letter to her parents. Damaging someone's reputation and spreading rumors could potentially lead to imprisonment.

"...Don't worry, my students have resolved everything on Weibo, and there won't be any more negative comments." Rong Yun's mouth was dry as she spoke, and she quickly drank a couple of sips of tea.

A student of Teacher Rong?

Yu Wan instantly thought of someone, and a smile slowly spread across her lips: "Your student must be very capable."

Rong Yun said proudly, "Of course, besides you, he is my most outstanding student!" As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly realized that she had let something slip. She looked at the handsome man opposite her guiltily and tried to make amends, "Hahaha... I have many students."

It's simply a cover-up.

Tang Yue raised an eyebrow with a half-smile.

Rong Yun immediately lowered her head so much that her chin almost touched her chest.

"Then please convey my gratitude to your student. I'll definitely treat him to a meal sometime," Yu Wan said jokingly. "However, if he's not comfortable revealing his identity, then forget it."

Rong Yun covered the phone and repeated the story to Tang Yue.

Tang Yue narrowed his eyes, his voice rising slightly at the end: "Preparing a gift to express your feelings is also acceptable." A gift prepared by Wanwan herself must be wonderful.

Rong Yun immediately understood and said to Yu Wan, "You can prepare some gifts for him."

"..." Someone really doesn't want to suffer a loss.

Yu Wan smiled slyly: "Okay." As for what the gift was, he didn't say.

[Gratitude should be repaid!] The Peace Ship seized the opportunity to issue a mission: [Host, please go to the Guan Family Charity Auction and bid on Tang Yue's former Koenigsegg. Reward: 500 hours of health.]

"...Are you really not a spy sent by Tang Yue?"

"Host, you're doubting me again!" The Peace was very aggrieved.

Yu Wan: "Is there anything about you that isn't suspicious?"

[...] The Peacecraft decided not to argue with its host and continued: [The proceeds from this charity event will be donated to disabled children. Doing good deeds is the purpose of our system!]

Yu Wan: "..." I almost believed it.

but.

She then thought that there should be many rare items at the charity event, and she could bid on one to give to Old Man Yu. Considering the gift, he probably wouldn't be too angry, right?

Yu Wan pinched her brow, feeling a throbbing headache. After thinking for a moment, she opened a search engine and typed in her browser.

If your parents discover the truth about something you kept hidden, how should you apologize?
