Entwined by Dawn: The CEO's Relentless Obsession-Chapter 696: Reunion with an Old Acquaintance

"Look, doesn’t Gu Tiantian want to keep her and your cousin’s identities a secret? Otherwise, why would she walk here when she could have Zhang Ze bring her to school?"

"And when Zhang Ze came to the rescue, didn’t Gu Tiantian look a bit surprised, and even a bit displeased?"

Dong Tong seriously recalled, then silently nodded.

"So, maybe Tian Tian doesn’t really have feelings for my cousin, and it’s just my cousin’s unrequited love?"

Xu Ziqiao: "..."

He definitely didn’t say anything!

Dong Tong showed an incredulous expression and quietly added.

"No interest in my cousin? Really? Oh my gosh, does she even know who my cousin is?"

Seeing Dong Tong’s incredulous expression, Xu Ziqiao lightly added.

"Even if she doesn’t know everything, she must know most of it!"

"Then why doesn’t she want everyone to know about her relationship with my cousin? My cousin is so handsome, skilled, capable, and cool, why wouldn’t she like him?"

As Dong Tong spoke, she looked at Xu Ziqiao.

Xu Ziqiao listened with a smile all along, and when Dong Tong asked him, he softly countered.

"Your cousin is so great, do you like him?"

Dong Tong nodded without hesitation, her eyes glimmering.

"I like him, absolutely! It’s just a pity that close relatives can’t get married anymore, otherwise I would’ve made a move already!"

For the first time, Xu Ziqiao’s face turned dark in front of Dong Tong!

Noticing Xu Ziqiao’s change in expression, Dong Tong couldn’t help but pout and quietly grumble.

"Such a stingy guy, I’m just indulging in some fantasies. You know nowadays, even if I think about it, my cousin might not even fancy me!"

Xu Ziqiao’s face turned even darker.

Dong Tong tried to explain again: "Actually, maybe if I confessed, my cousin might pick me over Tian Tian!"

Xu Ziqiao’s face became as dark as the bottom of a pot. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Just as Dong Tong was about to say more, Xu Ziqiao suddenly leaned down, lightly pressed his lips against hers, blocking off all her words.

After entering the office building, Gu Tiantian headed straight for her class advisor’s office.

Faced with the extremely courteous class advisor, Gu Tiantian was speechless and could only lower her gaze, listening to the advisor reassure her that it’s okay to miss some courses, that there are notes available and her health is the top priority...

When she left the advisor’s office, she had a tall stack of notebooks in her hand.

After walking a short distance, Gu Tiantian suddenly heard a call.

"Tian Tian?"

A gentle male voice, tinged with uncertainty.

Then, came the sound of hurried footsteps.

Gu Tiantian was slightly surprised and turned to see who it was.

A tall, slender figure, dressed in a well-tailored light gray suit, a white shirt paired with a red tie, looking both gentle and lively, elegant yet still sunny and handsome, catching one’s eye.

Seeing the man walking towards her, Gu Tiantian felt a sense of familiarity, as if she’d seen him somewhere before.

After some careful recall, she remembered.

The last time Li Jia fainted, she saw him briefly in the medical room.

Still, even back then, he seemed familiar, yet she couldn’t place him.

Gu Tiantian frowned as she watched the man approaching, pondering various possibilities.

Why does Teacher Shu always seem so familiar?

But annoyingly, she just couldn’t remember.
