Chapter 717: Chapter 304: Showing True Colors - 3
It’s not that she planned to do something bad, but the real core issue is this, a capricious girl changes her own behavior logic for you, from the image you were originally familiar with to another "false person." Isn’t that scary?
Anyway, Su Huai’s head was throbbing like crazy, having no clue from which corner this shit-stirring stick would poke at his chrysanthemum...
But Su Huai wasn’t scared, in fact, there was even a hint of exhilaration.
Great people have said that there’s endless fun in battling with others, and Su Huai could gradually understand and experience this now that he had reached his current height.
When you are at the bottom, you can’t afford to lose anything, so external pressures are more harmful than beneficial, and the lightest misstep could crush someone;
However, once you’re at the top, you must live under a sufficiently strong external pressure to ensure an active mind, a vibrant spirit, a fighting spirit, and a meaningful life with goals to strive for.
Otherwise, what’s the difference between me and Wang?
Just lying around waiting to die without even doing that right!
Su Huai distinctly felt that the things that could make him happy in everyday life were becoming fewer, and he felt increasingly restless at school, finding work to be more interesting.
So Chen Nuanhan’s change wasn’t that scary after all; it even piqued Gou Huai’s interest in her again.
Come on, baby, let me see how far you can go~~
While psyching himself up, Gou Huai encouraged Gu Jiuyue to toss the gift to him for handling, "Since you don’t want to keep it, give it to me. Let me see if I can recycle this trash into something useful."
Gu casually pushed the paper bag towards Su Huai, curious, "How do you plan to use it?"
"I’ll see who has a birthday next, then change the packaging and regift it, saving myself the trouble of picking out presents..."
Of course, the most interesting use would be...
Finding an opportunity to send it back to Chen.
If that doesn’t piss her off, I must be lacking in my cultivation.
Gou Huai threw away the paper bag, stuffed the gift box into his bag, and specifically reminded Gu, "Don’t look, if you do, you won’t be able to accept it with peace of mind, I’m planning to open it when I get back."
"6!"
What could Gu Jiuyue say? She could only give a thumbs up.
Through this whole ordeal, Gou Huai took no losses, came out clean as ice and jade, and even managed to cheer Gu up.
As the time for school to let out at noon drew closer, she became uncharacteristically restless.
"I don’t plan on attending class this afternoon. When are you giving me your present? Or, why don’t you just come home with me at noon?"
Su Huai thought for a moment, "I need to tidy up at noon, pay attention to my hairstyle and outfit. Old Gu seems to be scheming something against me..."
Gu Jiuyue pouted and sold her own father out immediately.
"What new tricks could he have? It’s nothing more than bringing a bunch of friends and partners to show off and secretly compete with you."
Daughter knows best; Gu guessed it right to the core.
"So, are there going to be lots of young ladies and young masters?"
"Maybe? Actually, I’ve never attended such a gathering, I’ve only heard about this type of social event."
Gu wasn’t sure, but Su Huai was certain in an instant.
"It seems today will be a banquet with hidden agendas..."
Su Huai was fearless, the light in his eyes shining bright, the urge to roll right over Old Gu’s head frontally surged within him.
No matter how grand the event you set up, who you invite to snipe at me, today you have to sit tight and watch me show off!
Perhaps making enemies for Su Huai was exactly Old Gu’s intention.
The more enemies Su Huai made, the more he would need Old Gu’s support, which would benefit his control. 𝚗o𝚟pub.𝚌𝚘𝚖
But Su Huai still wanted to take the lead, and then give Old Gu a piece of his mind.
********
I’m not exaggerating at all; when I cough, I can feel my brain shaking, and there’s a stabbing pain on both sides of my head.
Runny nose is the least of my worries, it might last till summer at most, it’ll be fine, does anyone have a reliable treatment plan for rhinitis?
