Campus Ace Girl-Chapter 778 - 779: Elementary school students, no one looks pleasing to anyone

He looked at her, his voice slightly soft. "What’s the matter?"

"Nothing!" Gu Anxi said tonelessly. "Just thinking about something."

Zhou Yunchen frowned. "Don’t tell me you were thinking about..."

"No," Gu Anxi answered quickly, then gave a very faint smile.

Zhou Yunchen was an incredibly intelligent man and shared a deep understanding with her. He had likely guessed what she was thinking but chose not to say it aloud.

He held his cup, looked at Chen Ming, and said softly, "Look at you, all flustered. Haven’t you ever seen a woman before?"

Just then, Jiang Chaoge smiled playfully. "What? Did Chen Ming really have some sort of encounter with Mr. Zhou’s sister?"

Chen Ming’s wheat-colored face instantly turned beet red. He stammered, unable to form a coherent sentence. However, being an honest man, he still admitted, "I’m pursuing her."

Zhou Yunchen chuckled.

Jiang Chaoge smiled faintly. "So that’s how it is. You should have told me earlier. If you had, I wouldn’t have let you drive me home last night. Do you think Miss Song might have misunderstood?"

Chen Ming scratched his head. "She’s not that petty." He chuckled again after speaking, a laugh that was a bit simple-minded yet sweet.

Although it was a one-sided affection, the taste of it was new, and only he truly understood the feelings involved. Jiang Chaoge watched him and smiled very faintly.

A short while later, Bo Xichen and Song Jia arrived almost together, one right after the other.

Jiang Chaoge smiled. "Senior Brother and Miss Song seem quite familiar with each other now."

Gu Anxi knew what Jiang Chaoge was implying and said nothing. Song Jia, however, retorted with a sour expression, "Miss Jiang, you’re saying too much. I’m not interested in other people’s men, nor am I interested in old men."

Gu Anxi stifled a laugh, then played with the cup in her hands. "Ah, I think that was a subtle dig at me."

Jiang Chaoge was annoyed. She hadn’t expected Song Jia to actually speak up for Gu Anxi. However, she was overthinking it; Song Jia simply disliked Gu Anxi and didn’t want to be associated with Gu Anxi’s man.

Moreover, when Song Jia arrived and saw not only Gu Anxi and Bo Xichen but also that blockhead Chen Ming, she was furious. But leaving now would make it seem like she cared.

She didn’t care at all! He was just a blockhead. Inexperienced and clueless about women.

She sat down beside Zhou Yunchen. He was very good to her, gently stroking her hair. "Have you eaten? If you have, just have a little something. No alcohol allowed."

Song Jia wasn’t quite used to this. It seemed Zhou Yunchen liked treating her like a teenager. Shen Congwen was the same, always patting her as if she were a kitten or a puppy. If she weren’t so strikingly good-looking herself, she wouldn’t have bothered with him.

Still, she generally listened to Zhou Yunchen, partly because she was a little afraid of him. Zhou Yunchen had lost his temper with her before, and he could be quite frightening when angry.

As she sat there with a docile, obedient look, Chen Ming, who was opposite her, stared blankly like a fool. After a moment, he finally snapped back to his senses and asked the waiter to bring a couple of light dishes specifically for her.

The situation was crystal clear to everyone: Chen Ming was obviously smitten and relentlessly pursuing Song Jia. Song Jia, however, paid him little attention. But with Zhou Yunchen present, she didn’t dare act out. After eating a small amount, she put down her chopsticks and started playing on her phone.

In the past, she had been a well-known figure in the international entertainment industry and had also secretly carried out missions for Bo Qing. Now that she could finally relax, she found herself unsure of what to do. She spent her days playing games or doing simple chores, feeling so inactive that her bones ached. Fortunately, she had managed to maintain her good physique.

At that moment, Bo Xichen, Zhou Yunchen, and Chen Ming were conversing. Gu Anxi felt a bit restless and also started playing on her phone. After a moment, Song Jia looked up and asked coldly, "What are you playing?"

Without raising her head, Gu Anxi replied, "Arena of Valor."

"Let’s play a round then," Song Jia said, her tone slightly provocative.

Gu Anxi was surprised, but after a moment, she chuckled softly. "Alright."

Zhou Yunchen finally turned his attention to the two "sisters" and frowned. "What’s with you two now?"

Whenever they get together, it’s like they’re two elementary school kids who can’t stand the sight of each other!

Bo Xichen, however, smiled faintly. "Go play on the sofa over there. It’ll be more comfortable to lean back."

The spoilt darling let out an "Oh," then turned to Song Jia with a challenging smile. "You dare?"
