As she spoke, Shen Yushu solemnly held up her little finger and wiggled it in the air.
"Oh..." The pack of wolves was deeply disappointed. So they had misunderstood; she had been calling about a "finger", not "toilet paper".
The boys who had been hoping to brush Shen Yushu's little hand while handing over the tissue reluctantly put their tissues away.
Back in the classroom, Shen Yushu patted her chest. She had nearly lost face in a big way. Thank goodness she had reacted fast, or her image would have been ruined.
"Xiaoshu, what are you doing? Why are you so pale and out of breath?" Gu Mengyao looked at her, puzzled. "Did you get caught following him?"
"Oh, nothing." Shen Yushu thought: I can't tell Gu Mengyao about that humiliation — it is far too embarrassing. If it got out, I would lose all face. She had never been so mortified in her life.
"So did you succeed in following him?" Gu Mengyao asked, curious.
"Yeah, yeah, I did." Shen Yushu nodded. "Seems he is going to give Tang Yun something. Tang Yun asked him for it, and he said he would bring it to her next period."
"What thing?" Gu Mengyao asked.
"He hasn't given it yet. How would I know?" Shen Yushu shook her head.
"Then follow him again next period," Gu Mengyao said.
"What? Go again?" Curious as she was, Shen Yushu had already been caught by Wei Zhao and had lost face badly. She did not want to go again in a little while.
"Yes — didn't you want to follow him?" Gu Mengyao looked at Shen Yushu's somewhat retreating manner, puzzled.
"Uh... I nearly got caught last time. You go next time..." Shen Yushu stammered.
"You didn't already get caught, did you?" How well Gu Mengyao knew Shen Yushu — one look at her expression and she could guess.
"Uh... yeah..." Shen Yushu could only nod and admit it.
"You..." Gu Mengyao shook her head. "I told you — with skills like his, how could he not notice? Now look: he is sure to think I sent you again."
"He won't..." Shen Yushu shook her head. "After he caught me, I made a point of stating first that this time it wasn't Yao-yao jie who sent me."
Gu Mengyao wanted to beat this silly girl to death... but then she thought, Wei Zhao might not believe Shen Yushu's words anyway, so she let it go.
"Yao-yao jie, you can relax now, right? Happy? I didn't sell you out," Shen Yushu said smugly.
Gu Mengyao was speechless. To have a live-wire bestie like that was a blessing — and a tragedy...
When you are sad, she can make you happy; when you are happy, she can make you sad. When you are glad, she can make you angry; when you are angry, she can make you angrier — until in the end you are laughing with rage...
Back in the classroom, Wei Zhao found a sheet of scratch paper and began writing out the recipe. In truth, these "Orleans barbecue seasoning", "honey-juice barbecue seasoning", and "black pepper barbecue seasoning" were nothing technically demanding; Wei Zhao often made them himself at home.
Receiving deliveries in the little village was inconvenient — you had to go into town to pick things up — so whenever Wei Zhao could manage it himself, he avoided ordering online. Using local materials was convenient too.
He wrote out several recipes in one go, then folded the scratch paper, ready to take it to Tang Yun after class.
