Chapter 164 – Thick-skinned (厚脸皮)
Tang Zi Hua was dressed in gym clothes and looked as if he was very familiar with this route. Anyone would be able to tell that it wasn’t his first time here with a glance
Qiao Hong Ye’s eyes stared straight at this sight. In a moment of haste, she couldn’t stop herself from calling out, “Tang Zi Hua?”
The person in mention was stunned when he turned around and saw a pair of eyes staring at himself through the fog of the night. The girl was wearing a pink and delicate mini skirt. Her long hair trailed across her shoulders while her face looked slightly haggard, as if she had suffered some kind of grievance.
“Why are you here?” Tang Zi Hua asked. He was puzzled, but that didn’t mean that he was not raising his guard against her.
It hadn’t been long since he transferred schools, but he already knew that Jing Yun Zhao and Qiao Hong Ye couldn’t stand each other’s presence and that these two weren’t biological sisters. Now that Qiao Hong Ye has appeared in this neighbourhood, he can’t help but feel afraid of the consequences.
Nowadays, most of the students at school didn’t like Qiao Hong Ye. He had even heard others say that her private life is very messy. Albeit these kinds of words are very harmful to a girl like Qiao Hong Ye,G.o.d knows why he always felt she made people very uncomfortable.
Qiao Hong Ye became frantic for a moment before she regained her bearings and instantly started her theatrics, “I- I’m here to apologize to Jiejie in my dad’s stead.”
Tang Zi Hua suddenly felt a little helpless.
He finally understood why he didn’t like the gentle-looking Qiao Hong Ye.
She’s too artificial.
He had seen many of this kind of girls before. At the yearly gathering the Tang Family hosted or other gatherings that he was invited to, the one thing they didn’t lack was this kind of girls. They obviously had healthy bodies, beautiful appearances, and the doting of their family, yet they always looked like they were suffering from some sort of major grievance.
It’s like they were trying to tell the whole world how sad and pitiful their life was as if everyone owed them something. But in reality? They’d always make use of this att.i.tude to obtain others’ sympathy and protection.
So when compared to this kind of girls, he conversely felt that girls who are proud and show-offy are more natural.
Someone like Jing Yun Zhao and Xiao Hai Qing.
Direct and straightforward; talking to them didn’t need him to have to think if there were any hidden meanings in their words.
Tang Zi Hua’s gaze sank, “I don’t think she needs your apology.”
After he spoke, he gave Qiao Hong Ye a look and shook his head furtively, before he went up the stairs.
Qiao Hong Ye was very unresigned; gathering up her courage, she followed behind him, and the moment Su Chu opened the door, she rushed into the room.
However, the moment she stepped past the doorway, she was overwhelmed with a wave of jealousy. The apartment was s.p.a.cious with three bedrooms and a living room, the area was very clean. A faint fragrance was spread through the apartment, and there were even different kinds of book collections here and there.
How fortunate Jing Yun Zhao was. She had a good relations.h.i.+p with Tang Zi Hua, and even managed to find two housemates of adequate status like Su Chu and Gan Jin Chen.
Jing Yun Zhao’s life right now was what she used to dream of.
The moment Su Chu saw Qiao Hong Ye, she started screaming like a ghost, “Qiao Hong Ye, what are you doing here! Our place doesn’t welcome you!”
Qiao Hong Ye lowered her head and her eyes reddened. Biting her lips (Ome: You know that someone is a white lotus when they bite their lips), she carefully looked at Su Chu, “What have I done wrong that needs you guys to be so fierce towards me? Since Zi Hua-ge could come, why can’t I? Plus I sincerely wish to apologize to my Jiejie. I won’t steal her spotlight and won’t make her unhappy anymore in the future…”
Today’s Qiao Hong Ye was thousands of times more wronged than usual, especially since she just had her body and mind ruined, and her crying was extremely realistic. Her tears flowed down in streams, practically stupefying Su Chu.
Gan Jin Chen frowned and gave Tang Zi Hua an accusing look.
Tang Zi Hua was once again helpless. Who knew Qiao Hong Ye’s skin would be so thick and actually dared to just barge in from behind him?!
