Chapter 153 - A Feeling He Shouldn’t Be Having
“Lingche, you seem to have great charm. Look, you only brought food over to that table, and yet, that girl keeps staring at you. You’re indeed our school’s Prince Charming! Everywhere you go, girls go wild for you!”
When Su Lingche took a clean tray behind the counter, his classmate Zhao Hui walked over. There was a mischievous grin on his face.
Even if the way that girl stared at him made him feel weird, Su Lingche wasn’t sick of such compliments no matter how many times he had heard them. He suppressed the doubts he had earlier and smiled lightly. In a seemingly nonchalant manner, he replied, “I’m used to it.”
He said it lightly as if he didn’t really care.
As if Su Lingche was already used to such situations.
“But seriously, I think that girl is not bad looking! Look at how fair her skin is, it’s practically glowing.”
Zhao Hui said that with a sigh as he gazed at Gu Qingjiu, and he looked like he was going to drool.
Somehow, seeing Zhao Hui’s gaze, Su Lingche felt uncomfortable.
As if the fellow was coveting something that belonged to him.
Such a feeling shocked Su Lingche.
He had only seen that girl for a brief moment.
But why did he feel that way?
Even with such thoughts, he certainly wouldn’t reveal it on the surface.
Zhao Hui was the shop’s boss’s son.
Su Lingche and Zhao Hui were both fourth-year students at North City’s Liuhe University and were soon to graduate.
They were supposed to be interning that semester, but Su Lingche didn’t have a high chance of entering a top-notch company. Even if it was just failing once, Su Lingche wouldn’t accept it.
If it was a subpar company, Su Lingche wouldn’t have deigned to intern there.
It was then that Zhao Hui claimed that his family had some influence in Dayi City. Since Su Lingche and Zhao Hui were on pretty good terms, it gave him an idea.
Zhao Hui invited Su Lingche to play in Dayi City for a few days, and Su Lingche immediately agreed.
After they had reached the city, Zhao Hui’s mother asked his son to intern for a few days in his family’s Milk Tea shop first. Su Lingche, on the other hand, had to create a good impression so that the Zhao family would help him seek internship opportunities. Hence, he helped out in the shop.
“Hai. Seriously speaking, that girl is not bad. There’s a certain vigor about her. Lingche, if you don’t fancy her, I’m going to make a move!”
Zhao Hui was considered a rich second-generation heir and was decent looking. Although he was not as handsome as Su Lingche, with some packaging he would do just fine.
He was famous for being a playboy in school. Since he said he was going to make a move on her, he likely was confident of success.
But this made Su Lingche feel uncomfortable.
Su Lingche raised his head and looked at Gu Qingjiu who was seated there, his eyes meeting hers.
But by then, Gu Qingjiu had already sorted her emotions. When she met Su Lingche’s gaze, she merely arched her lips up into a cold smile.
Even through the crowd, Su Lingche could sense a piercing coldness.
All of a sudden, he felt it hard to accept.
He kept feeling that it shouldn’t be that way.
“Ah! They’re leaving.”
Zhao Hui’s words made Su Lingche turn his gaze towards her again.
However this time, what he saw was Gu Qingjiu and her group’s departing figures.
Add to the fact they were too busy in the shop, there wasn’t much time to think about these matters.
Su Lingche held back the weird feeling in his heart, and he quickly forgot about it.
As for Gu Qingjiu, she and her group went to the cinema since it was time for their movie.
