Zuo Aiai stared at him for a moment.
Under his expectant gaze, she burst out laughing.
"Haha, Mo Shaoting, what kind of joke are you playing with me? We've known each other for so many years, don't play around."
The expression on his face instantly froze.
"It's as unbelievable as the sun rising in the west for someone like you to like someone like me, so please don't tease me. A little brother teasing his big sister will be punished."
She smiled at him and touched his cap, just as she had when she stood in front of him and saved him from the bullies back in junior high.
"Little brother, I'll take care of you from now on," she'd said.
He had always remembered this sentence.
"Whatever, I'm going to be late for class. See you later, superstar!"
Her words pulled him back from his memories. He was about to say something more, but she had already hobbled toward the classroom in her high heels.
He felt a little helpless, but he could only laugh it off.
Anyway, her engagement with Chen Ziyi was broken off, and his chances would definitely be better than before, right?
Zuo Aiai had just sat down in the classroom when a dialog box popped up on her phone.
"Mo Shaoting's appearance at Binhai University caused a commotion this morning. Thousands of fans blocked him for a group photo, causing serious truancy in class. I have returned to the office."
She couldn't help but laugh. She stuck out her tongue and secretly felt lucky that she'd run fast to get to class.
Just as she was about to put away her phone, an instant message notification flashed on the screen.
She opened it and saw Mo Shaoting's Little Red Riding Hood profile picture that didn't match him at all.
"Sister Wolf, Sister Wolf, call me sister Wolf," he'd written.
"Sister Wolf, we can't have lunch together anymore. I'm going back to the office. Next time you're free, you have to treat me to lunch! I finally got you to agree."
Because she had once saved him from bullies, she'd jokingly referred to herself to a big bad wolf. Then, Mo Shaoting naturally became Little Red Riding Hood.
Later, when instant messenger became popular, he naturally found a Little Red Riding Hood picture to change his profile photo to.
Then he sent her a funny picture of the big bad wolf to match his.
She didn't take it that seriously and changed her profile picture to it. She hadn't changed her profile picture since. Looking at it now, she felt quite nostalgic for those days.
Oh, to be back in high school...
She was strapped for cash, but lunch with Mo Shaoting would be very nice...
"Alright, notify me when you set the time. P.S. I'm completely bankrupt, so you're paying!"
Mo Shaoting quickly replied with two contemptuous emojis. She smiled and was about to put her phone away, but at that moment, her phone lit up with a new text message notification.
She opened it and saw it was from an unfamiliar number. It was written in a very cold and aloof manner.
It said that they had lunch plans together at 11:30.
She was stunned for a moment. When she saw the astonishing eight-digit phone number, she had a vague idea of who it might be.
There seemed to be only one person in her memory who would use such an ostentatious phone number.
She hesitated, unsure whether she should reply to a text message. After deliberating for a long time on the wording, she reluctantly sent something in return.
Could it be Mr. Jin?
The message had already been sent. She held her phone tightly and waited for a long time, but there was no reply.
The teacher walked in with a handout. She frowned and had no choice but to put her phone away and focus on the lecture.
However, the moment she tried to forget about the text, she felt the phone vibrate. She discreetly took it out to take a look.
The tone was still cold and aloof.
But this time, there was a clear disdain.
"Nonsense," he'd written.
Mr. Jin said they'd have lunch, and so they'd have lunch.
