After school, Zhen Tian packed her backpack and waited for Lu Yiran to pick her up.
"Want to come over to my house tomorrow?" Ye Qingyan invited everyone. "I'll have the chef make noodles for you all tomorrow. Didn't you want some last time?"
“Okay,” Yang Feiguang was the first to agree.
Immediately afterwards, Shao Junli and Yuan Yuan also agreed.
Only Zhen Tian is left.
She frowned, looking embarrassed, and said, "I'm sorry, I don't think I can go."
"Why? What are you doing? Didn't your Ji Yuzhi go to take the exam?" Ye Qingyan looked at her with disappointment.
"I have plans for tomorrow." Zhen Tian really wanted to go, but there was nothing she could do since she had already made plans.
"Who is it? Who asked you out? Do I know them? Are you seeing someone?"
"It's Senior Liu Zheng." Zhen Tian sat in her seat and accepted everyone's interrogation.
"Who? Liu Zheng?" Ye Qingyan couldn't believe her ears. It wasn't because she was sad or anything else, but because she was curious about why Liu Zheng would invite her sister.
Zhen Tian recounted Liu Zheng's invitation to her in detail: "I don't know why, but he sent me the time and place before I could refuse."
She scratched her head.
Ye Qingyan was furious when she saw the message Liu Zheng sent to Zhen Tian: "Damn it, this bastard, he asked you out tomorrow and then he wants to ask me out the day after. Is he trying to have his cake and eat it too? I'll beat him to a pulp."
"I'm sorry," Zhen Tian said, bowing her head guiltily.
"Why are you apologizing?" Ye Qingyan couldn't stand her like this: "Just watch what tricks he's up to. If he bullies you, I'll kill him."
"Are you going by yourself?" Yuan Yuan frowned. "Is it safe?"
"It should be fine, right?" Zhen Tian blinked innocently.
The three girls were discussing the matter, and none of them noticed that Shao Junli and Yang Feiguang exchanged a glance, and then quickly took out their phones and sent messages to someone.
...
After arranging things for that troublesome Lu Lin, Ji Yuzhi returned to the hotel. He had just finished showering when his phone started vibrating intermittently.
He thought it was that idiot Lu Lin, so he didn't look.
I waited until my hair was completely dry before picking up my phone.
[Shao Junli: Brother Ji, Tiantian is going on a date with Liu Zheng tomorrow. Liu Zheng is a senior in the second year of high school.]
[Yang Feiguang: Brother Ji, Brother Ji, Brother Ji, oh no, oh no! Some scoundrel Yue Tianmei went out to play.]
[Shao Junli: Brother Ji?]
[Yang Feiguang: Brother Ji, Brother Ji, Brother Ji, where are you? Come out now!]
[Yang Feiguang: Brother Ji, Sweetie agreed to go out.]
[...]
The two of them kept sending him messages, one after the other, urging him to reply.
Ji Yuzhi held his phone and chuckled softly for no apparent reason.
"I didn't expect these two to be so effective."
He replied with a message saying "I understand" and then there was no further communication.
With so many older brothers looking after Tian Tian, he wasn't worried.
However, this incident unexpectedly led him to meet two promising young men, which will make him less worried after graduation.
Ji Yuzhi's exam lasted two days, and after the exam, there were a series of troublesome things to deal with.
Lu Lin followed him around, running errands and being extremely attentive.
It was several days later when I boarded the plane back to H City.
In the past few days, Liu Zheng unexpectedly made several appointments with Zhen Tian.
However, every time they met, they would just sit there awkwardly, sometimes exchanging a few words.
Zhen Tian sat on a chair in the dessert shop, ignoring Liu Zheng's attempts to speak to her.
Liu Zheng's suppressed anger had reached a new level.
"What are you doing?" he asked, trying to control his temper.
"Ah, it's nothing."
Zhen Tian put away her phone and checked for any missed messages; Zhi Zhi hadn't contacted her for several days.
Liu Zheng seriously doubted whether this woman really liked him. If she did, why did she never speak to him whenever they met? But if she didn't like him, her shy demeanor couldn't lie.
After Liu Zheng tried to strike up a conversation several more times but received no response, he became annoyed.
That's enough.
He stood up angrily, the wrought iron chair scraping against the tiles behind him with a grating creak.
Zhen Tian looked up at him, confused.
"Zhen Tian, are your family playing a trick on me?" His voice wasn't quiet, attracting the attention of many people in the dessert shop, but Liu Zheng, in his rage, didn't notice.
"ah?"
"This is the first time I've ever seen such a weirdo in your family. She likes me but can't get me, so she resorts to threatening me with her brothers. Zhen Tian, you really have an eye-opener." Liu Zheng was furious and said whatever came to mind.
Others kept stealing glances at Zhen Tian, and after seeing such a cute girl, they began to wonder if the whole thing was true or not.
Zhen Tian was completely bewildered by his outburst.
"Not only did you force me to go on a date with you, but you also threatened me with my dad's job. After we met, I tried to keep quiet and chat with you while I was still angry, but you ignored me. Am I your pet? Today I'm telling you, Zhen Tian, I could never like you, never in my life. You even make me feel disgusted and repulsed."
"Huh? Wait a minute." Zhen Tian also noticed that he was angry, but she still didn't quite understand why. "Can you wait a minute before you get angry? I don't know what happened."
Zhen Tian's voice was still as soft and gentle as ever, making those who were eavesdropping feel sorry for her.
Why does this girl like a man like that?
"Don't know my ass. Didn't you ask your brothers to do it, or did they come on their own?"
"You mean my brothers forced you to go on a date with me because they think I like you?" Zhen Tian asked tentatively, afraid of provoking his temper again.
"Otherwise what? Did I come here because I like you?" Liu Zheng calmed down a bit when he saw that she really didn't know. After calming down, he started to worry about his father's job, but since he had already scolded him, he also felt a sense of relief after venting.
"But why would they think I like you?" Zhen Tian genuinely didn't know.
"Everyone on campus knows you like me, how could they not know?" Liu Zheng said sarcastically.
“But I don’t like you!” Zhen Tian frowned, looking puzzled. “I’ve barely spoken to you or even met you a few times.”
"Stop pretending. Didn't you spread the news that you like me?" Liu Zheng's temper flared when she denied it. "I'm not going to argue with you. I'm just telling you, Zhen Tian, go back and keep an eye on your brother. No matter how much you pressure me, I won't see you again. I hate you. It's best if you never appear in front of me again."
After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he walked out.
Zhen Tian struggled to stand up from her seat: "Wait a moment."
Liu Zheng turned around with disgust: "What are you doing now?"
Zhen Tian walked over with her cane and said softly, "I'm sorry, I really don't know why my brother misunderstood. I apologize on behalf of my brothers for the trouble I've caused you."
She bowed to him without any pretense: "I'm so sorry, I'll explain everything to my brothers. I'm sorry."
