Wei Zhao was not worried about Zhong Yongliang's conduct. At school, Zhong Yongliang might be troublesome, but he would never dare to go too far. Not to mention that Gu Mengyao had that quick-witted Shen Yushu at her side, Gu Mengyao's own family background alone was not something Zhong Yongliang could trifle with. If he openly used force on Gu Mengyao, even if his uncle was a shareholder of the Gu Group, Gu Pengzhan would hardly let him off lightly.
So Wei Zhao had no intention of following Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu. In fact, even if he had wanted to follow, with Gu Mengyao's temper she would never have allowed it. He might as well do something of his own instead.
"Boss, want to hit the snack street by the school gate for some barbecue during activity period?" Kang Xiaobo had asked Wei Zhao out after school yesterday evening and Wei Zhao had been busy, so he wanted to use the activity period to have a couple of drinks with him.
He had spent three years in high school and lived eighteen years, yet he felt that only these past few days had he truly felt like a man.
"Sounds good." Wei Zhao had eaten nothing at noon and agreed readily. He put away the things he had brought back from the hotel into his desk, blocking them from view with several books so no one would knock them out, and only then could he leave with peace of mind.
When the two of them left the classroom, most of the students were already gone. Apart from a few grind-minded bookworms, there was no one else in the room. There was no counting on that sort of grind to go out and play. Nearly every waking moment of theirs was spent buried in books.
Going downstairs, they passed Class Nine, Senior Three, and Kang Xiaobo instinctively slowed his steps. Wei Zhao found his behavior strange and was about to ask him about it, when Kang Xiaobo excitedly grabbed Wei Zhao and pointed ahead, lowering his voice in excitement. "Tang Yun! Tang Yun!"
Wei Zhao froze and looked forward on instinct, only to see a girl walk out of the classroom of Class Nine, Senior Three, not far away. After leaving the classroom, the girl also headed toward the stairwell. Wei Zhao did not see her clearly. By the time Kang Xiaobo called out, it was already late, and Wei Zhao caught only a hurried glimpse of her profile, and then a ponytail.
The girl wore the school uniform and was tall and slender, but because the uniform was rather loose, her exact figure could not be seen. Still, to be called a campus belle, she could hardly be lacking.
It was only a fleeting glimpse, yet she gave the feeling of one of those beautiful girls from a Japanese dating game, with a very strong school style. She was indeed the popular, girl-next-door type of campus belle.
"How was it? How was it?" Kang Xiaobo gestured wildly, so worked up he looked as if he had won the lottery.
"I did not see her clearly. What can you tell from behind?" Wei Zhao gave Kang Xiaobo a shove. "Why are you so excited? She is not your girlfriend."
"Hey, of course not, but just running into her and seeing her from afar is exciting enough. Boss, don't you think it is fate?" Kang Xiaobo's spirits were still running high.
"You see Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu every day, so why have you never had a seizure?" Wei Zhao found it funny. The way he was flailing about right now really did look like a seizure.
"That is different. With Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu... I have no hope at all. They could never look at me. I have no talent and no money. Why would those young misses ever look at me? But Tang Yun is different. She is close to us, from an ordinary family, so at least she gives a man some hope." Kang Xiaobo said.
"Heh..." Wei Zhao smiled, but he could not deny that Kang Xiaobo had a point. Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu rode to and from school in a Bentley and lived in a villa. Without a certain family background, a man would hardly dare to make a move lightly.
