Chapter 285: Another Misunderstanding
“… I, I’m saying, can you study abroad with me? Brother Hao, let’s go together. My family can pay for your school fees!”
Qi Hao’s impatience had been blatantly expressed in his face. “Pfft, is my family short of money? I don’t want to go to some foreign place! It’s not like the mainland doesn’t have good schools!”
“Mhm, Brother Hao, don’t get angry. It’s fine if you don’t want to go abroad. Can we get back together? If you agree, I’ll immediately tell my family that I won’t go! I’ll stay in the mainland!”
The girl’s tone was desperately pleading. She had a gentle appearance as well. With her eyes getting red, it would be hard for someone not to pity her.
That was what Gu Yan thought when she pa.s.sed by with Jiang Yue.
Qi Hao was so annoyed. But then, he happened to catch sight of Gu Yan who had just turned around.
He was taken aback, and his mind went blank for a moment.
As for the girl next to him, she thought Qi Hao wasn’t willing. She became a bit anxious and suddenly hugged Qi Hao!
This was a very bold move in this era, especially in a school setting…
Gu Yan and Jiang Yue didn’t expect it, but Gu Yan recovered quickly and kept looking straight as she walked upstairs.
She sighed. The students these days were really daring.
It was good to be young.
When she was struggling at the primary academy in her past life, she didn’t have all these feelings. She had gone through too much unhappiness, and her mindset had become different since then.
Jiang Yue was truly shocked. She was a good student. This was her first time seeing a guy and girl pull and hug in public.
It was too embarra.s.sing.
She reacted a little slower but quickly chased after Gu Yan in the next second.
Qi Hao was a bit dazed too after seeing Gu Yan turn away and flee.
Did Gu Yan get jealous or sad upon seeing another girl hug him?
Somehow, conflicting emotions arose in his heart. There was a bit of rejoicing and a little of disapproval.
But Qi Hao still pushed the other girl away and patted her shoulder. “You should go study elsewhere. We’re still young. We don’t need to think about these things.”
Thereafter, Qi Hao went upstairs without hesitation.
The level above led to the rooftop.
Qi Hao was guessing that Gu Yan was furious and jealous, and that was why she chose a random path.
He went up while thinking to himself. ‘Why did Gu Yan have to make things so difficult?’
The girl stomped her foot and ran away while crying.
Gu Yan and Jiang Yue had come up to the rooftop. It was quite cool with the gentle breeze.
Gu Yan narrowed her eyes. Her head was a little dizzy after doing so many questions. It was good to take a break. When the pair downstairs was done, they could return to the cla.s.sroom.
Gu Yan thought of the situation in this manner, but it was different for Jiang Yue.
She took a deep breath and sighed. “This Qi Hao, if he isn’t smart, handsome, rich, and Princ.i.p.al Gao’s niece, they would be calling his parents for messing with girls like that.”
Gu Yan smiled. “If Qi Hao was stupid, ugly, poor, a loser and not Princ.i.p.al Gao’s niece, no girl would like him.”
Qi Hao just happened to push open the door when he heard the remark. His handsome face darkened.
