Chapter 24 The Backlash of the Man's Tea Appears
Ye Zhenzhu pulled He Baizhou: "Did you deliberately not speak up for me?"
"Grandma, how could I dare? I really went to talk to him, but my older brother didn't agree. After all, we've already set a precedent once, and we can't do it again. That would be too outrageous."
He Baizhou understood his elder brother's actions.
After all, the eldest brother set a precedent for himself last time, and this was already the limit.
Ye Zhenzhu was still unhappy: "You definitely didn't put your heart into it."
"I'm innocent! I went to find my older brother for you. Anyway, it's just a small competition, it doesn't matter whether you participate or not."
But Ye Zhenzhu didn't think that way. After failing to replicate the last scientific research competition, she had to find a way to succeed.
Ye Zhenzhu rolled her eyes: "Then I'll go with you to see He Shen's book. Even if I can't participate in the competition, I can still share in the joy, right?"
In any case, we can't let He Baizhou and Ye Zhen have any time alone together.
He Baizhou hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay."
Whether you bring one or two, it's all the same.
Ye Zhen didn't say anything, after all, she had been taken there as well.
She knew what Ye Zhenzhu wanted to do.
As long as Hanzicha doesn't have the opportunity to participate in the competition, she doesn't need to worry about any problems arising.
The three of them walked downstairs together.
Throughout the journey, Ye Zhenzhu and He Baizhou walked arm in arm, chatting and laughing.
Ye Zhen walked alone to the side, as if she were isolated and neglected.
Ye Zhenzhu saw this scene and a cold smile appeared on her lips.
But the next second, Ye Zhenzhu's smile vanished; she felt as if she had stepped on something soft and squishy.
Ye Zhenzhu looked down and her expression changed drastically: "What is this?"
He Baizhou was the first to dodge, covering his nose: "This is dog poop."
Ye Zhen smiled when she saw this.
That's karma, isn't it?
But it's strange, how come there's dog poop in this school?
Soon, a school janitor rushed over: "A stray dog ​​has sneaked into the school today."
Ye Zhenzhu was furious: "Then what do I do now?"
"Pearl, why don't you go back and take a shower? This smell is too strong."
He Baizhou felt a little disgusted.
Ye Zhenzhu was very angry: "Then wait for me."
"No, I've already told my brother when we're going. We'll get yelled at if we're late. We're leaving now. You can handle it yourself."
Ye Zhen saw He Baizhou trying to avoid her, and Ye Zhenzhu's embarrassing moment of stepping in dog poop.
I immediately felt much more at ease.
Ye Zhen left with He Baizhou without looking back.
That's good, at least Ye Zhenzhu won't cause any trouble.
Ye Zhenzhu stomped her foot in anger as she watched the two figures leave, only to find herself stepping on dog poop.
Ye Zhenzhu asked the system in exasperation, "Is my bad luck starting now?"
System: "That's right."
"When will this end?"
"Once you successfully replicate it once, it will alleviate the problem. And now, as you imitate Ye Zhen and more people think you look alike, it will also alleviate the problem a little."
Ye Zhenzhu's mood soured, meaning that she could only imitate Ye Zhen now.
After all, she couldn't register for this programming competition.
She will definitely win next time.
——
Ye Zhen and He Baizhou went directly to a quiet villa.
She looked around: "I didn't expect there to be villas in the downtown area."
"The villas here are all old buildings, places where famous people lived during the Republic of China era. This place was almost forcibly demolished by unscrupulous developers, but my brother saved this place with cultural heritage."
Ye Zhen looked around at the surroundings, which did indeed have a sense of antiquity.
She listened as He Baizhou spoke with pride about the rumored He Hanjing.
The two stood in front of a red brick villa, next to which was another villa with a similar design.
After Ye Zhen went inside, she found that the interior decoration style was more feminine and very elegant.
That legendary academic genius actually likes this style?
That's really rare.
He Baizhou was clearly a bit surprised by the decorating style. He quickly explained, "It's probably the previous owner's decor. My brother doesn't come here often, so it wasn't renovated. That family has basically moved abroad now. The building next door is where the family's grandson lives. I think his surname is Gu."
Ye Zhen quickly realized what was happening.
The decor here looks very vintage; it would be a shame to tear it down.
The study is on the first floor and is a separate room.
Huge floor-to-ceiling windows, outside which grows a very tall sycamore tree, blocking out the scorching summer sun.
The study has two walls lined with books, and there's even a ladder.
He Baizhou volunteered to take the ladder: "What book do you want to read? I'll get it for you."
"No need, I'll take a look myself first."
Ye Zhen took the ladder and climbed up herself, discovering that many of the books were old, their yellowed pages telling tales of the passage of time.
She really liked this place.
"Ye Zhen, all the programming materials you're looking for are here."
He Baizhou stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, pointing to the bookshelf near the ground. The young man revealed a smug smile, his lips red and teeth white.
Ye Zhen stood on the ladder and looked down. Her fair features were serene, and her bright eyes held a hint of curiosity.
This scene was witnessed by a pair of deep, unfathomable eyes next door.
The two villas were identical in structure, and He Hanjing stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the scene opposite.
For some reason, he suddenly found the scene somewhat jarring.
Gu Chi walked in carrying a cup of coffee and clicked his tongue twice: "This scene looks just like something out of an idol drama, depicting the carefree days of young boys and girls."
Are you very free?
He Hanjing's eyes darkened slightly, clearly showing his dislike for the man who had suddenly appeared.
Even though 0527 had her job serving coffee taken away, she still walked over and stood next to He Hanjing.
Gu Chi sat on the sofa in front of the French windows, holding a cup of coffee: "I heard there was something interesting to see, so I came back to check it out. After all, you've never lived here since you bought my aunt's villa, and today you suddenly asked me for the front door password, so of course I was curious."
Unexpectedly, it really is related to Ye Zhen.
He Hanjing looked across the room through the gap in the curtains again and saw that Ye Zhen was already sitting on the carpet, reading a few books.
He Baizhou, that brat, deliberately sat next to Ye Zhen, his eyes fixed on her, his hands also getting restless, moving closer and closer.
He Hanjing's brows furrowed immediately.
Gu Chi leaned closer and said, "Tsk tsk, that brat knows how to seize an opportunity. A private space, and the weather is so nice, it's perfect for a date between couples, maybe even a sneaky kiss or something."
"Shut up!"
He Hanjing's face turned ashen.
0527's mechanical head also came closer, its emoticon changing to an angry expression: "Miss Ye clearly doesn't like him, look, she's already quietly moved away to keep her distance."
Gu Chi nodded: "0527, your analysis makes sense, but they are engaged, which makes a difference."
He Hanjing retorted directly: "How are they different?"
He took out his phone and dialed He Baizhou's number.
