The sun was still shining brightly, but Gu Luo felt that the road back to school was much more "lively" than he had imagined.
Gu Ximan was restless the whole way, her mind replaying the conversation like a movie. Shen Qingling's words, "No one would think of you as lovers," were like a thorn, making her feel both itchy and angry.
She clenched her fists and muttered to herself: Why can't I think about it?
Why is she the only one who gets to be the subject of rumors?
Why? Why?
The more I thought about it, the more frustrated I felt, and my steps became heavier until I saw the gate of Mingde School.
How can I get my revenge...?
how......
Don't rush...
Isn't being affectionate in public her current privilege?
Previously, Luo Shuhe, as the official girlfriend, could do it, but now only she can.
Lu Xuexue's eyes suddenly lit up, as if she had discovered a new continent, and she hugged Gu Luo's arm tightly again.
"You little madwoman, stop right there! I was just letting you have your way!" Gu Ximan raised her chin, her voice full of provocation: "I can openly link arms with that stinky old man, can you?"
She deliberately emphasized the words "open and aboveboard" and shook Gu Luo's arm as if she were showing off some rare treasure.
Shen Qingling paused, turned to look at her, and said nothing.
Seeing this, Gu Ximan became even more smug and continued to press her advantage: "I can openly go to the movies and eat at romantic restaurants with my stinky older brother, can you do that?"
She paused, then suddenly stood on tiptoe and, before Gu Luo could react, gave him a hard kiss on the cheek, a gesture that carried a hint of defiant force.
"I can even kiss him in public, can you?" Gu Ximan covered her mouth and laughed, her eyes curving into crescents, like a little fox who had successfully stolen some fish: "He's the younger sister, it's normal for a younger sister to kiss her older brother, can you? Would you dare to kiss him here? Aren't you especially envious?"
The students passing by didn't find it strange at all—Gu Luo's "sister complex" and Gu Ximan's "brother complex" had long been famous, and the students of Mingde and Guangya were already used to it.
But this time was different. Everyone could see that she was showing off to Shen Qingling. Several girls immediately huddled together and whispered, "My God, is the younger sister tearing into her sister-in-law?"
"No wonder there were rumors that Gu Luo and Shen Qingling were in trouble; Gu Ximan is protecting her brother!"
"......."
The already heated gossip was instantly ignited.
Shen Qingling's smile vanished completely as she looked at Gu Ximan's childish and provocative demeanor.
She raised her hand and slowly smoothed her wind-blown hair, her fingertips applying a little more pressure as they brushed against the ends, and the temperature in her eyes gradually cooled.
She didn't reply or look at Gu Luo. She turned around and walked quickly towards the teaching building, her back straight. Her displeased appearance, as if she had been forced to "flee in defeat" by someone else's younger sister, only confirmed the rumors that "her relationship with Gu Luo is unusual."
Unaware of this, Gu Ximan jumped up excitedly as she watched Shen Qingling's retreating figure.
He thought to himself with a smug grin: Serves you right for provoking me earlier!
You touched a nerve!
Now you know how powerful that is, right?
This crazy girl must be furious!
Lu Xuexue became happier and happier as she thought about it. She tiptoed and kissed Gu Luo on the other cheek, leaving two symmetrical lipstick marks. Then she let go of his arm and waved to him, "Hey bro, I'm going to class!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she ran briskly towards the first-grade teaching building, like a happy little bird.
She wanted to share the good news of "defeating Shen Qingling" with Lu Xuexue as soon as possible, so that Xuexue would be happy for her too.
Hmph, I'm not stupid.
Little Shen Qingling is easily controlled.
Gu Luo raised his hand to touch the still-warm lipstick mark on his face, watched Gu Ximan skipping away, and then glanced in the direction Shen Qingling had disappeared. He sighed, both amused and exasperated, "My silly little Ximan..."
He shook his head, took out a tissue from his pocket to wipe his face, and after wiping it a couple of times, he heard suppressed gasps from the girls behind him. He knew without a doubt that this was going to be the gossip headline on the campus forum again.
