Chapter 140: Chapter 140 Pampering Him

“Zhaozhao, do you have any issues with me?” After finishing their meal and running into Zhou Huaiyu and his friends at the entrance of the cafeteria, the latter looked at Shen Zhaozhao with a face full of grievance and complained.

At a towering height of just over six feet, his expression really was a bit hard to resist.

“No, not at all, absolutely none! You’re such a nice person and you look so handsome, how could I possibly have any issues with you?” Shen Zhaozhao frantically waved her hands as if she was playing a pellet drum.

“Then why were you avoiding me just now?” Perhaps flattered by being called handsome, Zhou Huaiyu’s tone lightened considerably, and even the resentment in his voice seemed to dissipate quite a bit.

Shen Zhaozhao, well aware of the principle that flattery gets you everywhere, smiled with a face full of sycophancy and innocence, “It’s just that your brilliance is so dazzling and your charisma so blinding that I worried standing beside you, I would be cast in the role of a clown, which is why I didn’t come over just now.”

These words could only fool children, yet there was someone who actually believed them.

“So that’s why!”

Feeling quite elated by the adulation, Zhou Huaiyu instantly felt his stature had grown considerably: “You’ve got good taste. Not to brag, but I’m considered The Most Handsome Guy in No.9 Middle School.”

“From now on you’re like my own sister, and if anyone dares to bully you, just drop my name. Rest assured, if I say I’ll have your back, I mean it. If anyone dares to trouble you, they’ll have to answer to me.”

A wave of second-year adolescence hit full force.

Shen Zhaozhao stifled her laughter and nodded.

Zhou Huaiyu, satisfied, strutted toward the classroom with great aplomb.

“He’s very handsome?” Suddenly, a voice sounded above her head.

“No, not at all, you’re the handsomest!” Shen Zhaozhao replied reflexively.

Sheng Chuyi looked at her deeply: “Shen Zhaozhao, do you always get so enthusiastic with everyone?”

The way he said it, it was almost as if she were some sort of flirtatious, unreliable woman.

“Tsk, am I detecting a strong scent of jealousy? Didn’t think you’d care so much about such a vain title. Relax, you are the handsomest; no one is handsomer than you. I was just humoring him. Can’t you tell?”

Unfortunately, Shen Zhaozhao’s words did not please him, and Sheng Chuyi’s expression turned even colder. He glanced indifferently at her and walked past.

What, had she said something wrong again?

Are a man’s thoughts really so hard to guess these days?

Shen Zhaozhao turned to Jiang Nian beside her and said, “Don’t you think boys are more troublesome than girls nowadays?” Each one was like a child who needed to be coaxed, and it was all too difficult for her.

Jiang Nian, watching Sheng Chuyi walk away, thoughtfully said, “You two, it’s not just knowing each other, is it?” It was the first time she had seen Sheng Chuyi show an expression other than indifference towards a girl.

“You caught me; we are indeed more familiar with each other than most.” Shen Zhaozhao didn’t intend to hide the fact, especially not in front of Jiang Nian, or else she wouldn’t have spoken to Sheng Chuyi the way she had.

She just planned on keeping a low profile, and didn’t plan on truly ignoring someone outright, as that would seem too contrived.

Besides, it wasn’t possible to pretend not to know him forever.

The reason was just that she had recently transferred over and didn’t want to attract too much attention.

Jiang Nian, being a girl who understood boundaries, upon hearing this, stopped there and did not pursue the matter further.

Shen Zhaozhao liked this aspect of her character; while others might find her too cold and difficult to get along with, Shen Zhaozhao thought she was just right—neither overly warm nor sycophantically worldly, which felt very genuine.

Another reason was that Shen Zhaozhao felt she had a personality similar to Sheng Chuyi’s.

Both appeared cool and distant on the surface, hard to approach, but actually harbored no ill will and instead might be rather soft-hearted inside.
