Chapter 14
Wei Shixu's eyes were actually quite good-looking, but only when he didn't have malicious intent.
Like right now, he wasn't smiling falsely, his lips were slightly pursed, and just looking at the lower half of his face, he seemed a little unhappy.
But when he looked at someone attentively, his eyes were like deep pools, very profound.
After Wei Shixu put the milk tea on Quan Zhisui's desk, he took out a small cake in fancy packaging with his other hand.
As he handed it over, he said, "Miss Quan, I bought you sugar-free milk tea, and the cake has non-dairy cream."
Quan Zhisui blinked, with ten thousand question marks popping up in her mind.
This Wei Shixu really had a serious split personality!
Kong Mingze didn't know when he had woken up. He jumped up and shouted, "Wei Shixu, how could you only buy one drink without getting one for me too?!"
Quan Zhisui clearly saw Wei Shixu's temple twitch.
"Buy it yourself," he said very impolitely.
Kong Mingze started making a fuss, "Damn, you bought it from this shop?! They don't do delivery, you went out to buy it?! Oh, I love eating this little cake the most!"
Wei Shixu gritted his teeth, "You can shout a little louder."
Kong Mingze grabbed his head dramatically, "Ah!!! Why didn't you call me to go with you when you went out?! Why!!!"
Wei Shixu left with a dark expression, looking like he didn't want to bother with him at all.
Kong Mingze urged Quan Zhisui, "Hurry up and try it, the milk tea from this shop is really super delicious, the best in Liangxi City! The cake is tasty too, but there's limited quantity every day and it's expensive, you have to line up if you want to buy it!"
Quan Zhisui: "......"
She glanced at the front row. The person had sat back down and started watching bloody movies again.
Kong Mingze suddenly slapped his forehead, "Oh I know why Wei Shixu snatched the milk tea I was going to buy for you! I didn't get you sugar-free, you martial artists are pretty strict about what you eat right? Next time I'll know!"
Quan Zhisui: "It's not that strict, it's fine to eat unhealthy stuff occasionally if your metabolism is fast."
Moreover, she didn't think Wei Shixu had thought that way. He wasn't that simple-minded.
She opened the milk tea and took a sip. She was a little surprised that even sugar-free could have such a great taste.
Kong Mingze smiled like a big fool, "I wanted to tell you before class, Wei Shixu is a good person."
Quan Zhisui: "Are you sure?"
Kong Mingze nodded heavily, "Of course! He's the best person in the whole world!"
Quan Zhisui asked again, "Then has this 'good person' you speak of ever bought you milk tea?"
Kong Mingze was stunned and shook his head, "No."
Quan Zhisui: "What kind of filter do you have on him..."
-----------------
Zhou Chun's mind was restless today, thinking about the scene she saw yesterday over and over, reassuring herself it was an accident.
She had asked around. The girl was a transfer student who had just arrived at Liang Secondary School on her first day, and had even transferred from a faraway province, so there was no way she could have history with Wei Shixu.
That girl seemed to be very close with Kong Mingze, and Kong Mingze was the only one who dared make a ruckus in front of Wei Shixu.
Maybe that was the only reason...
Suddenly, before the first class had ended, Zhou Chun saw Wei Shixu appear in the hallway outside the classroom, then his figure disappeared at the stairwell.
Where was he going? Wasn't he going to attend class?
Right after, Zhou Chun saw from the window that Wei Shixu walked out the school gate.
She was wondering the whole time what Wei Shixu went out for, barely listening to the class, until near the end of the second morning class when she saw him returning through the school gate, carrying a cup of milk tea and cake in his hand.
He had spent a whole class time running out to buy these things?!
Zhou Chun had known Wei Shixu since the summer vacation of 8th grade. He was diligent and excelled in his studies, did everything meticulously striving for perfection, but now Zhou Chun felt this person was a stranger. How could he skip class to do these kinds of things!
So who was this for?
Who could make Wei Shixu break his principles?
Zhou Chun felt even more anxious and uneasy. As soon as the bell rang to end class, she rushed to Class 1 and stood at the back door peering inside.
Then she saw Wei Shixu give the things he bought to the girl sitting in the last row.
That girl called Quan Zhisui.
-----------------
The morning classes passed and it was time for lunch.
Quan Zhisui took a deep breath and walked over to Wei Shixu's seat, "Wei Shixu, let me treat you to lunch."
Wei Shixu looked up and smilingly asked, "Just treating me alone?"
Quan Zhisui nodded, "Yeah, just treating you alone to a meal."
"Okay." He was still smiling as he got up, the curve of his lips very natural this time.
But Quan Zhisui called out, "Kong Mingze! Want to go to the cafeteria together for lunch? I'll treat you to milk tea later!"
Wei Shixu's smile suddenly became unnatural.
The big fool Kong Mingze immediately rushed over, "Then let's go!"
Quan Zhisui called out in another direction, "Class president, want to join us? I'll treat you to milk tea too!"
Zhuge Ying was surprised but quickly nodded, "Sure."
Seeing Quan Zhisui pulling along all the people who had helped her yesterday, Wei Shixu didn't even bother continuing his fake smile.
...
Quan Zhisui added 3000 yuan to her meal card, leaving the rest for later.
Zhuge Ying was advising Kong Mingze the whole way to study hard, while Kong Mingze kept nodding and bowing in response.
Wei Shixu walked beside Quan Zhisui, occasionally letting out a 'hm' with the corners of his lips upturned, though it was unclear what he was hm-ing about.
Quan Zhisui swore this would be the last time she ate with him.
She would properly thank him, then they'd be even.
The four of them with varying demeanors walked into the cafeteria and got in a not too long line.
They hadn't waited long before there was a commotion behind them, with people trying to cut in line and push forward.
It made Zhuge Ying stumble. Fortunately Kong Mingze who was standing beside her held her steady.
Zhuge Ying frowned and looked back to see what was going on.
Kong Mingze also glanced to the side, "Quan Zhisui, you didn't get bumped into right?"
"I'm fine," Quan Zhisui replied. At the same time, she let go of Wei Shixu.
She had reacted quickly to pull him when the people behind bumped over.
Feeling a little regretful now.
Wei Shixu lowered his eyes to look at her, then glanced at the arm she had grabbed.
What strength.
The commotion grew louder now, and scolding could also be faintly heard.
"Move aside! All of you move aside!"
"What's the matter? Never seen people cut in line before? Move it!"
"......"
Quan Zhisui saw with her own eyes as the five guys she had beaten yesterday shoved their way from the back to right in front of her. The same five from yesterday.
Originally still acting arrogantly, the five came to an abrupt halt when they saw Quan Zhisui midway through, not daring to push forward anymore.
Quan Zhisui spoke up, "Did you guys go get checked at the hospital?"
She had meant to ask if she had hit them too hard yesterday. Even if there were no broken bones, there must have been bruises all over their bodies from the force.
But her words sounded like a threat to the five!
They immediately turned tail, fleeing the cafeteria in terror without lining up for food anymore.
Afraid of being beaten by her again!
This scene, seen by the people around them, caused many to secretly glance in Quan Zhisui's direction and whisper among themselves.
"So the rumor from yesterday was true!"
"Liang Secondary School is going to have a change of power!"
"Zuo Zichen's status is unstable. The new girl who transferred in is too fierce!"
"And just look at who she's standing with, that's Wei Shixu!"
"F*cking badass! Oh right, what was her name again?"
"Remember the name of Liang Secondary School's future boss! Her name is Quan Zhisui!"
