Chapter 27: Beauty is the ultimate culprit.
Professor Zhao's words made Shen Que laugh. He curled his lips, a hint of smile in his eyes, and replied, "Professor Zhao is joking."
Everyone can understand the meaning of this sentence.
Professor Zhao subconsciously wanted to say something, but swallowed it back when he saw Meng Zhiyi.
However, the girl who had been standing behind him felt like her world had collapsed after hearing Shen Que admit with her own ears that Meng Zhiyi was his girlfriend.
She looked at the two people standing close together in front of her in disbelief: "You, when were you with her?"
Shen Que didn't know this person, and didn't even have any impression of him.
In response to her question, he just replied coldly: "This is my private matter."
After saying this, Shen Que said hello to Professor Zhao and left with Meng Zhiyi.
Looking at the two people leaving, Professor Zhao had an expression as if a good cabbage was eaten by a pig. He shook his head and said regretfully: "Beauty misled people after all."
The girl was distraught, remembering that she had ridiculed Meng Zhiyi not long ago, and ended up being the ugly one.
In the office, Meng Yiyang sat in a chair with a headache, thinking back to everything he had just experienced.
Putting aside Meng Zhiyi's change, the most incredible thing to him was that he could hear Meng Zhiyi's thoughts.
He even thought at one point that he was hallucinating because he was jet lagged and had not rested enough.
But remembering that she had mentioned her eldest brother and third brother in her heart, Meng Yiyang had some vague guesses, and then directly called Meng Zhizhou.
After a moment, the call was connected.
"Why are you calling me at this time? Have you returned to China?" Meng Zhizhou asked.
Meng Yiyang hummed, then asked his doubts: "Brother, have you noticed that Meng Zhiyi is a little different recently?"
Hearing this, Meng Zhizhou on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds, and then only the sound of him sending the people around him away was heard.
Meng Yiyang knew that what they were going to say next could not be heard by anyone, and the guess in his mind became clearer.
Meng Zhizhou: "Did you see my younger sister? When?"
Little sister?
Meng Yiyang was a little surprised.
As far as I can remember, they only called him that when Meng Zhiyi just returned to the Meng family.
Later, Meng Zhiyi's true nature was exposed and she did many things that disappointed them. Gradually, they lost their affection for this sister they had found.
Now Meng Zhizhou actually called her that again. Could something have happened during the time she was away from the country?
Meng Yiyang rubbed his temples and said, "I just saw it. She scolded Professor Zhao's students, and then they complained to me."
Meng Zhizhou on the other end of the phone raised his eyebrows and asked with a chuckle, "And then? Did she not explain anything, but instead said something infuriating?"
Mentioning this Meng Yiyang, he got angry and repeated the words that Meng Zhiyi had used to scold him.
"You don't know, she really won't stop until she makes people angry to death."
Meng Zhizhou: "Did you ask her about the process and the truth of the incident at the beginning?"
Meng Yiyang fell silent, thinking back to the beginning, he did not ask her at all, but directly assumed that she had done something wrong.
Seeing that he was silent, Meng Zhizhou turned his chair to face the French window, looking at the buildings outside, and said in a long voice: "Put yourself in his shoes. If it were you, what would happen if you were made to make a final judgment without giving you a chance to explain?"
Meng Yiyang didn't say anything.
Meng Zhizhou said earnestly: "Second brother, my little sister may not be what she seems. You have to carefully distinguish many things by yourself."
Hearing this, Meng Yiyang frowned and asked uncertainly: "Brother, can you also hear Meng Zhiyi's thoughts?"
After these words were spoken, Meng Zhizhou fell silent.
After a few seconds, he asked, "Did you hear that, too?"
"Well, I thought it was an illusion." Meng Yiyang was now 100% sure that it was not an auditory hallucination.
"Since you can hear it, you should have heard something about yourself, right?"
For example, what was his final outcome?
Meng Yiyang was also somewhat confused: "What about me? I didn't hear anything. I only heard her say that she was finally normal and that she wanted to provoke me."
"I didn't hear that. Then I suggest you spend more time with me recently. You will find it more interesting."
Meng Zhizhou did not directly tell Meng Yiyang what he had heard from his inner voice about his future, but with a hint of mischief, he let Meng Yiyang open the door to a new world by himself.
Full of doubts, Meng Yiyang hung up the phone.
However, he did not accept his elder brother's opinion, nor did he plan to contact Meng Zhiyi.
Anyway, he never paid attention to it before, and it will be the same in the future.
On the other side, Meng Zhiyi followed Shen Que to the school cafeteria.
Because she got a breakthrough in the mission from Meng Yiyang, she was in a very good mood and hummed a little tune from time to time.
"Why were you called to the office?" Shen Que asked after he sat down while scanning the code with his mobile phone to order food.
"Because I scolded your admirer." Meng Zhiyi had no intention of hiding it. She supported her chin with her hand and looked at Shen Que with a teasing expression.
Shen Que raised his eyebrows, looked up at Meng Zhiyi, and said calmly and rationally, "Don't put yourself in an embarrassing situation because of some irrelevant people."
"Are you worried about me, or are you worried about being implicated by me?" Meng Zhiyi asked back.
"Both." Shen Que answered her without hesitation.
He quickly added, "Because we are a couple."
Meng Zhiyi clicked her lips. She naturally didn't believe what Shen Que said.
[It sounds nice, but I just don’t want to lose face. ]
[Hey, you told me not to do it, but I will! As long as I am not satisfied with the value of disgust for one day, I will make you restless. ]
[Fortunately, Meng Yiyang is normal and his dislike value has increased today. Otherwise, I would be pissed off to death by you newbies! ]
Shen Que seemed to have gotten used to her mumbling and said nothing more.
After the two ordered their dishes, the cafeteria gradually became lively.
It is rare to see the school's celebrities on a normal day, but now that the two most popular figures have appeared together, there is bound to be a lot of discussion among the crowd.
At this moment, someone has posted a photo of Shen Que and Meng Zhiyi having dinner together on the school gossip website.
[Holy crap? Is this true? Am I seeing things? How come these two are eating together?]
[No, can the class representative explain it to me? I haven't been online for two days, and they are already talking about it? ]
[Please, how could a man like Shen Que be interested in Meng Zhiyi's embroidered bag? Isn't it obvious that Meng Zhiyi is trying to get close to her? ]
[That's right, Meng Zhiyi has been shameless for a long time, please stop getting so upset.]
However, just as the tone of the comment section was being swayed by this remark, someone posted another screenshot.
It is Shen Que’s circle of friends.
The first and only one.
There is a photo of a girl's profile on it, with the sun shining on her, creating a very charming atmosphere.
And it is accompanied by a three-word copy.
girlfriend.
The person who posted the picture tagged the netizen who said Meng Zhiyi was shameless and commented: [Come on, open the microphone, who are you calling shameless? The real owner has made the official announcement himself, come and defend yourself if you don’t agree. ]
