Shocking! The school heartthrob who was adopted by a wealthy family is actually a heiress!

Chapter 227

The panic subsided.

Instead, he felt an emotion he couldn't quite explain.
-
I don't want you to kiss me anymore.

Was she speaking to Lin Jiashu, or to him?

She had always been so ruthless; he had hated her, but now he was grateful for it.

Shen Yanci lowered his eyelids, concealing the emotions in his eyes.

The two left that place and walked towards the school gate.

Qin Zhao looked at him: "What are you doing here?"

Shen Yanci: "Go to self-study."

"Should we continue now?"

"That's all for today." He then asked, "Are you going home?"

"Ah."

He paused for a few seconds: "I'll take you."

Qin Zhao lowered his eyelashes: "It's okay, I can manage on my own."

There was no tension, yet it seemed distant, perhaps due to excessive politeness.

Shen Yanci opened his palm to her: "Schoolbag."

Qin Zhao did not move.

Shen Yanci took her schoolbag and slung it over his shoulder: "I said I'd give it to you."

There weren't many people on the main road of the campus, except for a few students who were preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination and were returning to their dormitories from the teaching building.

The two walked side by side, with a person's distance between them.

Shen Yanci lowered his eyes: "What if he continues to harass you?"

Qin Zhao's voice was not loud: "Probably not."

Shen Yanci: "Don't you want to be in a relationship?"

Qin Zhao's hand twitched slightly, and he hummed in agreement.

Shen Yanci's eyelids were half closed: "I have an even simpler method."

Qin Zhao listened attentively.

He lifted his eyelids slightly: "If someone pursues you next time, you can tell them, 'I'm your boyfriend.'"

Qin Zhao paused for a moment.

“It’s too much trouble to explain and refuse one by one.” He carried her backpack on his shoulder, his voice even sounding quite calm, though his jaw unconsciously tightened. “Ex-boyfriend, you could call him a boyfriend too.”

"You're not exactly lying."

"..."

Qin Zhao paused for a moment, then lowered his eyelids: "Being your girlfriend is really unlucky."

The dappled shadows of the trees fell on them, like a woven net, gray and gloomy.

She wouldn't even use him as a shield.

I don't want to have any connection with it at all.

Shen Yanci twitched the corner of his mouth: "Why do you hate me so much?"

What does this have to do with whether she likes him or not?

Qin Zhao pursed her lips, cracked her knuckles, glanced at him, and continued walking forward: "No current girlfriend would be happy to hear something like that."

Are you talking about your current girlfriend?

"..."

if not.

"What about your ex-girlfriend?"

Shen Yanci walked up to her and stared straight at her: "Do you think being my girlfriend is unlucky?"

Qin Zhao's gaze fell on some meaningless point. She glanced at him, then quickly lowered her eyelids, her brows furrowing unconsciously. She moved her lips, fidgeted with her fingers, and finally sighed softly.

She paused for two seconds, and what came out as a smile was a blank expression: "Ask your girlfriend."

She said, "My ex-girlfriend isn't important. You don't need to care about what she thinks."

Shen Yanci looked at her, his eyes dark, his voice low and magnetic: "I think it's important."

Is your ex-girlfriend more important, or is this answer more important?

Regarding the current situation.

Neither of them is very reasonable.

Qin Zhao looked at him and said, "If you want too much and care about things that aren't that important, you'll lose happiness."

"Is my importance and happiness defined by you?" Shen Yanci asked. "How do you know I'm happy now?"

Qin Zhao: "You already have a girlfriend, is it really meaningful to say these things now?"

Shen Yanci was taken aback: "When did I get a girlfriend?"

"You said it yourself," Qin Zhao sighed. "The other day when someone asked for your WeChat, didn't you say you had a girlfriend?"
-
"Sorry, I have a girlfriend." "What else? Is there an easier way?" Shen Yanci looked at her. "I'm not exactly lying."

My ex-boyfriend, who was also my boyfriend.

How can an ex-girlfriend not be considered a girlfriend?

It could also be her future girlfriend.

Qin Zhao's eyelashes drooped slightly.

The two continued walking forward.

It was cold, and there weren't many pedestrians on the street.

When they arrived at Lanting Bay, he handed her the schoolbag.

Qin Zhao took it and said thank you, "Take care on the road."

Shen Yanci said casually, "I'll be studying at F University tomorrow. You can treat me to a meal if you have time."

"..."

evening.

When he passed by the flower shop, he told Qin Zhao and ran in to choose a bouquet of flowers.

When Qin Zhao entered, the waiter, with great insight, praised, "This is a white tulip, symbolizing pure and clean love. It's perfect as a gift for someone you like."

"Jasmine is also nice. I wish you would never leave me, and I wish you would understand my heart. It's suitable for confessing your love."

"..."

The waiter saw Qin Zhao and greeted her with a smile, "Hello, would you like to see some flowers?"

Qin Zhao pointed at Shen Yanci: "I'll wait for him."

The waitress smiled knowingly, looking at the well-matched couple: "For something a little more special, would you like calla lilies? They're often used in weddings to represent unwavering love."

Calla lily.

Qin Zhao looked at the familiar flower and curled his fingers.

In a flower shop, most of the flowers are associated with the theme of love.

Following his gaze, the shop assistant spotted the potted gardenia: "This is a gardenia; it won't bloom until May. It symbolizes waiting for you (to discover my love)—"

"Can tulips be given to friends?" Shen Yanci raised her eyelids slightly.

The shop assistant, whose sole purpose was to sell flowers, said: "Of course! This represents blessings and protection."

Shen Yanci paid the money and took the tulips and potted plants.

He gave the tulips to Qin Zhao: "To make up for it."

It was a gift for a friend.

tulip.

Qin Zhao said thank you, and walked alongside him, holding the flowers.

After dropping her off at home, Shen Yanci carried a potted plant with him and left.

She put the flowers on the coffee table, and when she was bored at night, she put them in a vase.

Liang Shiyu sent her a WeChat message, saying that she was going to City B the day after tomorrow and asked if she wanted to hang out together, and invited Kuang Xu and Yan Ci to come along.

She found it quite strange.

She thought that after things fell apart in London, Liang Shiyu would no longer pay attention to her.

Qin Zhao glanced at the tulips that had just been planted and found them a bit of an eyesore.

She pursed her lips and declined.

She has to attend classes and is very busy.

Kuang Xu tried to contact her, but she declined.

She suddenly returned to her previous state, but it was not quite the same as before.

Shen Yanci's shadow will be seen on the road.

She returned to the Rose Garden on Friday, while Lin Shi went to an event, leaving only Qin Qiong and Lin Zheng at home.

Shen Yanci was not there.

It's almost time for dinner.

Qin Qiong frowned as she looked at her phone: "It's lunchtime, why hasn't Yan Ci come yet? He hasn't answered his phone either."

Qin Zhao: "Maybe she went out to eat with someone else."

"He should have said so, we agreed to eat together. Yan Ci isn't that kind of person." Qin Qiong made another call, but there was still no answer. "Did he tell you he went out to eat?"

"No."

"Zhaozhao, why don't you go to his house and take a look?"

"..."

Don't talk about retreating; retreating is for the sake of advancing better!

No prize! Who will speak first? (The actual speaking part)
