Chapter 75

“My thanks to Koolkat for supporting us with Ko-Fi. Sorry for the long break.”  

The banquet ended not long after the toast. After a while, Jiang Guangshi’s family left. It was only a relatively low-key banquet. After the banquet, the guests also dispersed. Jiang Tingzhou brazenly followed Su Meng and the Ling family back to the door of Ling house. The old couple Ling took the initiative to invite Jiang Tingzhou to sit with them for a while. Jiang Tingzhou waved his hand and refused, “No, sir Lao Ling, Grandma Zhang, I can talk outside with Kid for a while.”

The old couple Ling was very open-minded. They knew that Jiang Tingzhou was the first person Su Meng had met after she arrived at the compound, and was the most familiar peer so far, so they went into the house without saying much.

Only Jiang Tingzhou and Su Meng were all left at the door. Jiang Tingzhou put one hand in his pocket, and stretched out and gently squeezed Su Meng’s face with the other, “What did you… call me back there?”

Su Meng recalled that in order to highlight her familiarity with Jiang Tingzhou in front of Jiang Guangshi, she called him… “Ah Zhou?”

Jiang Tingzhou chuckled when he heard that, “No.”

Su Meng tilted her head, “What should I call you?”

Jiang Tingzhou said word by word, “Ah, Zhou, brother.”

There were too many people who called him Ah Zhou, but there could only be one and only one person who would call him Brother Azhou. That was Su Meng.

Su Meng said Ah Zhou brother. Jiang Tingzhou’s smile deepened by a bit. Hearing those extremely soft words, his heart skipped a beat, and then he gently rubbed the corners of Su Meng’s soft lips, “So good.”

The air seemed to have lost its sound. The atmosphere was peaceful and beautiful for a while.

“You just spoke for me.” Jiang Tingzhou chuckled, he was very happy.

Su Meng pursed her lips, “If I didn’t stop you back there, would you have been impulsive again?”

Jiang Tingzhou thought about it for a moment and replied seriously, “If it was the past me, I would have, but I won’t do it now. I was very happy when you spoke for me.” 

On that occasion, if he quarreled with his father, it wouldn’t be a wise move. That would even spoil his image in the eyes of other guests, especially the old couple Ling. So even if he wanted to be impulsive, he couldn’t.

Su Meng replied with joy, “Just stay happy.”

He then gently curled his lips, “Well… I am very happy that I met you.”

Su Meng thought of the things Jiang Tingzhou had done for her since she met, and she curled her lips slightly, “I am also very happy to meet you.”

When Su Meng appeared in the classroom the next day, the entire class was shocked. Among them, the most shocked were Li Youqing and Zhang Xiaoya, who had the closest relationship with her on weekdays. As soon as she sat in her seat, Zhang Xiaoya told her, “Mengmeng, you, you…you actually look very beautiful!”

Li Youqing also said, “Yes, you look so beautiful, why have you been reluctant to show your true face before?”

The whole class fell silent spontaneously, as if everyone was waiting for Su Meng’s answer. It was naturally impossible to tell her the truth. She could only fool them with the reason that Grandma Zhang thought.

She pursed her lips and tried her best to make the next words as sincere as possible, “Actually…I came to Beijing with the person who adopted me. I am not from Beijing, and my hometown is far away from here. I just changed to a new environment. I was very scared and uncomfortable, so…”

The brain supplement ability of high school students was very high.

(brain supplement: supplementing plot and fantasizing like of a novel or drama)

Su Meng didn’t even finish her sentence, the classmates around her had already made up the entire story. 

She grew up in a village and had a miserable life experience. She was abandoned by her parents, or because she lost her parents by accident, she was adopted. She had arrived in the bustling capital. She was afraid that she wouldn’t be compatible with the surrounding environment and that she won’t be able to get along well with her classmates when she arrives at a new school. Therefore, she had been cautious and even feared that her beauty would cause campus bullying. So she wore a mask on her face in order to avoid trouble and protect herself carefully. Thus they made their own story

Zhang Xiaoya patted her arm  “Mengmeng, don’t be afraid, I will always be by your side with you!”

Li Youqing hummed.  After she expressed her opinions, the rest of the classmates also expressed their opinions and assured her that they would help her adapt to the new environment and integrate into it as soon as possible. Although her words were half true and half false, at that moment, the affection between Su Meng and her classmates was real. Seeing the sincere and childish faces in front of her, Su Meng blushed and thanked everyone. The sports committee member waved his hand boldly, “Thank you? From now on, our class will be with you. No matter what happens, you don’t have to be afraid!” 

The rest of the students agreed to his words. Su Meng had anticipated many reactions from her classmates before she came to school that day. But she never expected that she would get such a sincere and enthusiastic response.

How lucky she was to meet so many lovely people? That morning could be regarded as turbulent. Because every teacher who came to the class noticed Su Meng’s face, and every one of them expressed surprise.

Who could have imagined that the classmate who had always been the most peaceful and quiet in the class had such a beautiful face that was so attractive and prone to trouble? But in the next second, they immediately understood why she was so low-key before. At the end of the last class in the morning, Su Meng was going to go to the cafeteria for breakfast with Li Youqing and Zhang Xiaoya.

As soon as she left the classroom, she saw Lu Boxing waiting at the door.

Krish: ‘Brother’ in this context is being referred in a romantic way. I don’t know how it is romantic lol. P.s. I hate Lu Boxing.
