Chapter 2064: Chapter 2064: Slow to Return (31)

Chuzheng pacified Chi Gui and blocked Mo Qiong.

Whether the news came sooner or later made no difference, using Mo Qiong’s news was the same as using the Good Person Card’s news.

So when Mo Qiong found the news and was ready to report it to Chuzheng, he discovered he’d been blocked.

Mo Qiong: ”???”

What did he do wrong?

Mo Qiong felt very wronged and dashed off to find Chuzheng.

It was just after school, and Mo Qiong navigated upstream, nosing around at the classroom door.

Chi Gui used to be Huahai Middle School’s big-shot first seed player, and Mo Qiong was the second seed player.

Two tigers cannot co-exist on one mountain, hence the ’deep bond’ between the first and second seed players.

These matters used to be Huahai Middle School gossip, now they’re Dongyang Middle School gossip.

Someone in the classroom recognized Mo Qiong, what’s he doing here? Did someone provoke him?

Mo Qiong spotted Chuzheng and immediately waved at her, with a friendly smile.

This smile seemed eerie to others, resembling that ’grimacing yellow face’ emoji online.

Chuzheng: ”...”

Everyone: ”...”

Is he here to cause trouble for Hang Chuzheng?

Mo Qiong was oblivious to others’ thoughts, continuously giving Chuzheng a friendly smile.

Chuzheng exhaled, intending to send him away first.

However, just as she reached the door, Chi Gui’s figure appeared in the corridor, heading this way.

Chi Gui had already seen Mo Qiong, who was perched on the doorframe with a creepy smile, and Chuzheng standing beside Mo Qiong.

”Sis,” Mo Qiong greeted her with a cheerful grin.

Chi Gui paused, his gaze alternating between her and Mo Qiong.

Chuzheng: ”...”

I think I’m in trouble!!

Mo Qiong excitedly said, ”Sis, I already found out who...”

”Do I know you?” Chuzheng interrupted Mo Qiong.

Mo Qiong was bewildered for a moment, then raised his voice: ”Sis, what... do you mean? Weren’t you the one who asked me to investigate the rumor?”

Not only did you block me, but now you’re pretending not to know me?

What is this game!

Chuzheng put on a serious face: ”What are you talking about? Classmate, you’ve mistaken me for someone else.”

Mo Qiong: ”...”

Mo Qiong pinched his thigh hard, the pain confirming he wasn’t dreaming.

Chi Gui wasn’t far away, their conversation clearly reaching him.

Chuzheng internally cursed, wishing she could sink foolish Mo Qiong into the ground—doesn’t he know how to read the room!

Chuzheng thought Chi Gui would leave due to his temper, but instead, he continued walking over.

His expression was emotionless, a bit intimidating.

Chuzheng felt even more anxious...

It’s as if she could hear the sound of crashing.

Mo Qiong, hearing the commotion around them, finally reacted and looked over.

”!!!”

Why is Chi Gui here!

Damn!

Mo Qiong’s mind was overwhelmed with those words.

Chi Gui walked up to Chuzheng, ignored Mo Qiong, and asked Chuzheng in a clear voice both could hear: ”Are you going home?”

The scoundrel actually ignored him!

The thing Mo Qiong hated most was Chi Gui’s arrogance—who does he think he is? His dismissive attitude made people want to rough him up!

Wait... going home?

Did he mishear earlier?

”Yes.”

”Then let’s go,” Chi Gui stepped aside, taking Chuzheng’s backpack from her.

Chi Gui never glanced at Mo Qiong, simply left with Chuzheng to go downstairs.

Mo Qiong: ”...”

I feel like I’ve overheard something big.

On the way home, Chi Gui remained silent, Chuzheng lagged behind, contemplating how to appease him.

From home to end, Chi Gui said nothing; instead, he handed her a name.

”The rumor originated from him.” Then he went back to his room.

Chuzheng: ”...”

Chuzheng paced back and forth in the living room, glancing at the closed door and approached, raised her hand to knock.

But she hesitated for a long time.

Finally, Chuzheng gripped the door handle and turned it.

The door wasn’t locked, her heart slightly stirred as she pushed it open and went inside.

Inside, Chi Gui sat at the desk, drawing something.

He immediately covered it with books when he heard the door open, twirling his pen without looking at Chuzheng.

”Chi Gui.”

No response.

Chuzheng walked behind Chi Gui.

Her own card, favored, she tolerated it!

Deep breath!

Calm down!

I can do this!

”About today...”

Chi Gui slammed the pen down: ”You don’t believe me at all.”

Chi Gui wasn’t bothered by Mo Qiong, he cared that she clearly agreed, yet still asked someone else to investigate.

Didn’t she trust that he could uncover it?

Her previous replies were so perfunctory.

Chuzheng: ”...”

How’d it become about not trusting him?

I feel like hitting someone!!

Chuzheng took a deep breath: ”I asked him before you told me those things.”

Chuzheng pulled out her phone, showing the previous chat records.

”See for yourself.”

The chat showed Chuzheng requested Mo Qiong to investigate indeed before he contacted her.

Chuzheng patiently explained: ”I’ve blocked him, but I didn’t expect him to come find me.”

How could I know you’d bump into each other!

And is this matter that serious?

Chuzheng didn’t think it was serious, she cared more about the outcome.

And partly, she didn’t want Good Person Card involved in these matters.

Chi Gui stared at Chuzheng’s phone screen, silent for a long time.

”I never doubted you. Just think about it yourself.” Chuzheng took her phone, prepared to leave.

Chi Gui clenched his fist tightly and, as Chuzheng turned, pulled her towards him.

Chuzheng fell into Chi Gui’s embrace, light dimmed before her eyes, youthful breath tangled around.

After some time, the young man buried his face in Chuzheng’s hair, his voice muffled and hoarse: ”I just feel so useless...”

Sometimes he wondered, for someone as outstanding as her, how he deserved to be with her.

Deep down, Chi Gui felt insecure and lacking confidence.

His parents considered him a burden, no one wanted him, only adding to his insecurity.

Chuzheng turned his face to her, holding it, sincerely kissed him: ”You’re wonderful.”

”I’m not...” Chi Gui lowered Chuzheng’s hand, hugged her again: ”But baby, I only have you.”

He knew he wasn’t good, yet wanted her by his side.

The young man held her tightly: ”I’m very selfish.”

He couldn’t do as others said by giving her better things or broader skies to fly.

Chuzheng raised her hand to touch his head, fingers through soft hair, landing on his ear, pinching the lobe lightly: ”Coincidentally, I’m selfish too, I only want you to belong to me.”

Chi Gui released Chuzheng, their gazes met in the air, that glance seemed to penetrate deep into her eyes to see her soul.

It was engraved with her possessiveness over him.
