Chapter 170 Your Romantic Debts
They only came to their senses after Dan Si's car drove out of Song Jin's and the others' sight.
"If the school heartthrob is Zhao Zhao's younger brother, then wouldn't he be Professor Zhou's grandson?" Tian Ya was the first to realize this.
“Oh right, the school heartthrob’s surname is Dan, the same as Zhao Zhao’s uncle’s surname.” Song Jin slapped his forehead.
Three girls stood in the cold wind outside the library, discussing something, while the conversation continued inside the departing sports car.
"Dan Si, when did you become the school heartthrob? How come I didn't know?" Gu Ji only knew that he was the school bully in high school, but he never expected that he would become the school heartthrob in college.
He smiled casually, his tone quite smug, "I earned this title during military training."
Gu Ji nodded knowingly. She had never paid attention to the school forum, except for the day her relationship with Dan's mother was exposed.
Seeing her understanding expression, Dan Si knew that she definitely didn't pay attention to this aspect, after all, she was out of touch with the news even in high school.
However, he couldn't help but tease, "Are you living like a caveman?"
Gu Ji had experienced the skills of Dan Si Poisonous Snake quite a bit in his daily life, but she had a winning formula.
"If you criticize me, I'll tell Uncle Dan," Gu Ji said calmly.
The next second, Dan Si's eyes widened. "He's using this trick again?"
"You're so old and you still tell your parents? Aren't you ashamed?" Dan Si muttered to himself, but stopped criticizing Gu Ji.
Gu Ji smiled and retorted, "I'd like to."
She has powerful backers; she has the resources to back her up.
"Alright, alright, you have your uncle backing you up, I can't afford to offend you." Dan Si curled his lips and began to ask about Guan Xiang's recent situation.
"Have you seen Xiangxiang these past two days?" He didn't know what was going on, but Guan Xiang had started avoiding him again these past two days.
“We went shopping together yesterday.” Gu Ji knew what had happened between the two of them and deliberately kept him in suspense.
Sure enough, Dan Si immediately smiled like a lackey and said, "Good job, Zhao Zhao, help me out. She's ignoring me again, and I don't even know what I did to offend her."
After he confessed his feelings to Guan Xiang, she disappeared for three days. Just when he thought they were strangers from then on, she found him and told him that she could give him a chance, but she would have to observe him for a while.
So during this period, he was almost always attentive to her, but a couple of days ago, I don't know what happened to her, she started ignoring him again.
Anyway, he's still completely baffled and doesn't dare go to her house to look for her, afraid she'll kick him out later.
Gu Ji sighed softly, "You really don't know what's wrong with you?"
Dan Si was less casual than usual, with a serious expression on his face, looking like he was asking for a solution.
Seeing that he was truly unaware, Gu Ji said, "Your romantic entanglements."
"What romantic entanglements do I have? I've never even had a girlfriend." Dan Si's pupils widened in shock, as if he didn't want to wrongly accuse an innocent person.
"The girl who liked you in high school approached Xiangxiang and even insulted her."
Although Guan Xiang left the girl speechless after her retort, she was still very annoyed and didn't want to see Dan Si for the time being.
"Damn it, who dares to mess with my woman? When I find out who it is, I'll kill her!" Dan Si cursed and turned the steering wheel to head towards Guan Xiang's house.
Guan Xiang finally agreed to give him a chance, and if this stranger ruins it, who will he complain to?
Seeing his agitated state, Gu Ji sighed inwardly, "If you go to Xiangxiang now, she won't see you. Calm down first."
Upon hearing this, Dan Si paused in his actions and turned his gaze to Gu Ji. "Then what's your plan?"
He had no experience in charming girls, so he had to ask Gu Ji, who was also a girl, for help.
Girls understand girls best.
Gu Ji pursed his lips and said, "Take a gift to Xiangxiang's house tomorrow to get a chance to enter the house."
"You mean you want to visit Uncle Guan and Aunt Guan?" Dan Si rarely understood.
"Yes, you have to go in first to have a chance to see Xiangxiang. Otherwise, the servants will definitely kick you out." Gu Ji knew that Guan Xiang had already instructed the servants not to let Dan Si into the house.
"So what's the next step?" Dan Si asked humbly.
Gu Ji thought about how Uncle Dan would coax her: kind words and catering to his preferences.
"Buy Xiangxiang what she likes, coax her, and explain things clearly. You absolutely cannot give up just because Xiangxiang's attitude is bad, otherwise the misunderstanding will only snowball." Gu Ji was a little worried about Dan Si's temper.
One of them was sulking, and the other was impatient.
Guan Xiang's situation can be resolved with a sincere explanation and some coaxing. After all, he's the one who attracted these unwanted suitors, so he has to put in some effort to resolve the issue.
"Alright, I'll give it a try tomorrow. You've become more and more knowledgeable since you started dating," Dan Si remarked.
Before Gu Ji could even feel guilty, Dan Si changed the subject, "It's been more than half a year, and I still don't know who your boyfriend is."
This puzzled him, as he had never met Zhao Zhao's boyfriend, nor had he ever seen Zhao Zhao on a date with a strange man at school.
She did see her uncle pick her up from school a few times, but she didn't see any other men.
He was still worried that she would be deceived, so he asked someone to subtly inquire with her classmates. The result was the same as his: they only knew that she existed, but did not know her name or appearance.
Gu Ji blinked and sniffed.
As the date she and Uncle Dan agreed to announce their relationship drew closer, she was still a little anxious, but after six months of reflection, her fear of being broken up had lessened.
The nervousness of an ugly daughter-in-law meeting her in-laws has never changed.
"When do you plan to bring him to meet me? I'd like to give you my opinion."
"You'll find out soon enough." Gu Ji estimated the time; the New Year was not far off.
Dan Si drove to a milk tea shop and stopped. His uncle had asked him to buy Zhao Zhao a milk tea, saying that she was under a lot of pressure during finals and that drinking milk tea would help her relieve stress.
"Why did you stop?" Gu Ji asked, puzzled.
Dan Si looked helpless. "Your uncle said you're under a lot of pressure from your studies and need some sweets to relieve the stress. Besides Taro and Barley Matcha, what other desserts do you want?"
My uncle really knows Zhao Zhao's preferences. He knew she liked this milk tea recently, so he specifically told him not to buy the wrong one and sent him detailed information about the sweetness and temperature.
It's as if he's so unreliable and would mistreat her.
"And another mousse cake, and don't forget to replace the barley with taro paste." She really liked the delicate and soft texture of taro paste.
As Dan Si got out of the car, he nodded and said, "I know. My uncle mentioned this before. I have a good memory."
Watching Dan Si disappear into the milk tea shop, Gu Ji smiled and sent a message to Dan Anwen.
Kid: Uncle Dan, I have a surprise for you tonight.
The man didn't reply to her; he was probably busy.
Gu Ji didn't care, and instead clicked into the dormitory group chat, which already had 99 messages.
The group name is quite eye-catching: "Rich Women's Exchange Group".
