Chapter 123 — The Zhong Father and Son [Asking for Monthly Tickets, Five Updates Done, Tang Yun Asks Everyone, Do You Have Any Monthly Tickets...]
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 3
Zhong Fabai moved in a world that was half black and half white, and he naturally honored brotherly loyalty, so he did not explode too badly over Zhong Yongliang standing up for his buddy. He merely cursed Zhong Yongliang roundly and told him to stop meddling in idle affairs, nothing more.
"Do you know you almost ruined my great plan this time? You got my right-hand man Black Panther thrown into the station, and he probably will not get out for years. Luckily he does not know much, otherwise..." Zhong Fabai snorted. "Remember this. Your first and foremost duty at school is to get that little chick Gu Mengyao into your hands. Do not think about anything else, do you hear me?"
"I understand, Dad, I will do my best." Zhong Yongliang hurriedly promised.
"Mm... if you get Gu Mengyao into your hands, your father will never have to watch your uncle's face again." Zhong Fabai patted Zhong Yongliang on the shoulder. "All right, go on, make the most of your time. Before that old fox Gu Pengzhan catches on, turn the raw rice into cooked rice, or it will be too late."
Zhong Fabai was no fool. He did have some influence in Songshan City, but compared with Gu Pengzhan he fell far short. If Gu Pengzhan openly recruited a son-in-law, he would certainly never look twice at Zhong Yongliang, so Zhong Fabai told his son to strike first and gain the advantage.
Zhong Yongliang meekly agreed to his father's words. Although he hated Wei Zhao in his heart, without his father's support he really could do nothing to Wei Zhao on his own. If his father gave him full backing and brought over a squad of guards from the nightclub, Zhong Yongliang refused to believe Wei Zhao could fight four hands with two fists. Even if he could handle four hands, what about ten hands or twenty? He refused to believe they could not beat him to death.
Wei Zhao, I will let you off for now. Once I have hooked Gu Mengyao and Father is pleased enough to hand his men over to me, that will be the day you die. Zhong Yongliang thought hatefully...
Even though he was unwilling, he could only swallow it and keep it in his heart, and see if he could find a way to make a little trouble for Wei Zhao and disgust him. As long as it was not open confrontation, Wei Zhao would not be able to suspect him...
"Yaoyao..." Zhong Yongliang dashed forward a couple of steps and chased after her.
"Sister Yaoyao, the fly is back again... I told you, if you paired up with Shield Brother sooner and flew off together as lovebirds, you would not have all this trouble..." Shen Yushu said with a giggle, pointing behind her.
Gu Mengyao rolled her eyes and turned around with some helplessness. "Zhong Yongliang, are you deaf?"
Zhong Yongliang froze. Why was Gu Mengyao suddenly calling him deaf? What was going on here? He was the one who had called out to her, so why was she talking about him?
"Yaoyao... what do you mean by that? What deaf?" Zhong Yongliang was utterly baffled.
"Last time at the school gate, when you called me Yaoyao, I told you not to call me Yaoyao, call me by my full name... So I can only conclude that either you have an IQ problem with very poor comprehension, or you are deaf." Gu Mengyao said.
Stung by Gu Mengyao's sarcasm, Zhong Yongliang's face turned very ugly at once. In his heart he cursed, you little bitch, you are just a bit prettier and born into a better family, that is all? Just wait until I win you over, hmph, and we will see how I deal with you.
But since he had not won her over yet, Zhong Yongliang naturally wore a pleasant and fawning smile. "Heh heh, my uncle is colleagues with Uncle Chu, so our families count as old family friends. I thought calling you Yaoyao would sound more affectionate..."
"Oh, then call me whatever you like..." Gu Mengyao really was too lazy to bother with him anymore.
Hearing Gu Mengyao's words, Zhong Yongliang was instantly overjoyed. Did this mean Gu Mengyao had agreed to let him call her Yaoyao?
