Chapter 645: She Will Really Thank You!
Ha, trying to come between him and his sister again? Not a chance!
Meanwhile, Gu Yang, propping her chin with one hand, wore a smile as she observed the silent exchange between her elder sister and Xiao Yize. She inwardly marveled at their unspoken understanding.
Mid-knock, she caught her little “blood bank’s” troubled gaze. Gu Yang paused, momentarily stunned, before the realization dawned that she and her “blood bank” were also part of the school’s couples.
Just then, a notification chimed on Gu Yang’s phone, shattering her reverie.
Her expression froze.
Damn it, she’d forgotten to silence it!
Glancing down, she saw the illuminated screen. It bore a message from her “little blood bank”: [Sis, we must be the exception to the rule.]
Gu Yang’s face flushed with embarrassment.
Gu Yang couldn’t ascertain if she was truly a one-in-a-million case; all she knew was that she felt like she was drowning.
The sudden sound drew everyone’s attention to the living room.
Even Feng Jue was taken aback by the voice. He hadn’t expected his sister to designate him as someone of particular concern, let alone forget to silence her notifications.
Yet, as he beheld Gu Yang’s endearing expression, Feng Jue couldn’t help but smile.
Sorry, it wasn’t intentional. She’s just too adorable.
Gu Pei leaned closer, peering at Gu Yang’s phone with curiosity. “Sis, did you receive a message just now? The voice sounds oddly familiar.”
Meanwhile, Gu Jin shot Feng Jue a cold glance, silently seething. This schemer must be trying to charm her sister behind her back once more.
Gu Yang swiftly extinguished her phone screen, maintaining her composure as she addressed the curious gazes. “It’s almost identical, so it’s naturally familiar.”
Gu Pei nodded, though he couldn’t recall the nuances of the notification; his phone was typically on silent mode when not in use.
Ruan Xueling and Gu Zhaoming, unfamiliar with such features, didn’t dwell on the matter.
Xiao Yize raised an eyebrow, sharing a meaningful look with Gu Yang.
If he hadn’t misheard, the notification she received bore the same voice as when Miss Gu messaged him.
Relieved to see attention shifting away, Gu Yang let out an internal sigh.
This intrigue was rather exhilarating.
While her parents were not paying attention, she leaned back and avoided Gu Pei’s gaze as she glared at Feng Jue.
Feng Jue blinked innocently and sent her another message: [Sister, I was wrong.]
Another notification chimed, drawing everyone’s attention once more.
Gu Yang internally cringed. Social suicide was imminent!
Feng Jue’s expression froze in disbelief. Did his sister forget to silence her phone?
Gu Jin shot a glare at Feng Jue, silently blaming him for the interruption.
Maintaining a composed demeanor, Gu Yang addressed the group. “My apologies, I’ll silence it now.”
Swiftly, she activated silent mode on her phone.
Feng Jue refrained from sending any further messages, fearing his sister’s wrath if she deemed his concerns unwarranted.
“Thank you, Xiao Yize, for assisting with their return from the police station tonight,” Ruan Xueling expressed her gratitude once more.
Xiao Yize’s response was gentle. “You’re welcome, Auntie Ruan.”
As the evening wore on, Xiao Yize, having accomplished his purpose of visiting the Gu family, took his leave at an opportune moment.
It was difficult not to be impressed by him.
Gu Zhaoming regarded Xiao Yize thoughtfully, suggesting to Gu Jin and Gu Pei, “Why don’t you two see Xiao off?”
Gu Jin didn’t object. Upon their return, she simply said, “Thank you.”
Xiao Yize chuckled softly. “No need to thank me, Jin.”
A wry smile tugged at the corner of Gu Jin’s lips. Was he becoming addicted to this?
Meanwhile, Gu Pei, engrossed in his phone, suddenly glanced up.
His gaze swept over the pair, noting their maintained distance, but he couldn’t discern anything amiss.
Perhaps his recent heartbreak had made him overly sensitive? It was likely so.
Just earlier, Gu Jin and Vice Principal Xiao had asserted the futility of romance on campus. How could they then engage in it knowingly?
