The boys' gazes turned strangely to Tang Yuan. No matter how slow they were, they could still smell gunpowder in the air.
The little fatty coveted Tang Yuan's beautiful appearance. When he heard Tang Shu's words, he immediately thought of the rumors among his classmates and frowned unhappily. "Don't spout nonsense. Yuan has many fans. How did she get you to help her buy these things?"
"In person—"
Before Tang Yuan could finish speaking, Lin Xiang interrupted her. "Why didn't I know you said that? We went shopping together yesterday. Then why didn't you go yourself?"
Tang Yuan glared at her hatefully. Everyone in the classroom was already looking at her. That detestable Lin Xiang actually embarrassed her in public.
Her face was slightly red as her wet eyes swept across everyone in the room. Then, she tugged at Tang Shu's sleeve timidly. "Sister, I specially told you before school ended yesterday. Why don't you remember? If it weren't for my stomach feeling unwell last night, I would've gone alone. I wouldn't have troubled you."
Tang Shu's cold eyes landed on her face with a smile, making Tang Yuan's heart tremble.
The dawn was breaking on the horizon, and the sleeping birds were roused by the fast-moving planes in the sky.
The phone beside his pillow vibrated continuously. Tang Shun was so sleepy that he could not open his eyes. However, because the phone was too noisy, he could only close his eyes and search for the phone. Out of habit, he pressed the answer button on the phone. After waiting for a while, the phone did not stop vibrating.
Tang Shun opened his eyes in frustration. Only then did he see that the source of the vibration was a pile of chat messages.
Mu Zheng's name hung in the middle of the screen. Tang Shun immediately woke up. He sat up and opened the chat box with trembling hands.
"Tang Shun, what's Shu's phone number again?"
"Tang Shun, are you dead? Is Shu beside you? Is she okay?"
"Tang Shun, speak. I'll be at your house soon. Tell Shu to contact me first."
Tang Shun stared blankly at the lines of words on the screen. He was angry, so his reply was not polite. "What are you doing here?"
The bombardment of information suddenly stopped. Through the screen, Tang Shun really could not figure out what this person was up to.
After thinking about how to please his sister last night, he was already exhausted. If Mu Zheng did not have a proper reason, he could not blame him for being rude.
Had Mu Zheng not always ignored Shu in the past? Why was he suddenly so concerned about her?
"I want to see Shu and ask her if you bullied her in person." Mu Zheng narrowed his eyes and rubbed his swollen temples. He closed his eyes tiredly.
The Mu family and the Tang family were not in the same city. Therefore, the Mu family did not know much about the Tang family. Otherwise, Tang An would not be so bold as to send people to beat Tang Shun up in the city.
Tang An was certain that this matter could be hidden from the Mu family. Otherwise, even if he was given a few guts, he would not dare to offend the Mu family.
Tang Shun was still in a daze when the screen lit up again. "I'm at your house. Come downstairs." Tang Shun immediately put down his phone and did not even bother to wash up.
There was a huge question in his heart that only Mu Zheng could answer.
"You're not up yet?" Mu Zheng frowned in disdain at Tang Shun's disheveled appearance. "Where's Shu?"
Tang Shun closed the door and poured himself a glass of water. "She's at school. What's wrong with you? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Mu Zheng stared at Tang Shun with a sinister gaze. "I had a very complete dream. I dreamed that Shu was dead because of you! I have to see Shu with my own eyes!"
Tang Shun felt his body turn cold. He lost his grip on the cup and it fell to the ground.
Things were indeed not as simple as he had expected. If even Mu Zheng could have such a prophetic dream, then Shu…
Tang Shun's heart suddenly raced. He seemed to have finally come to the door that hid the truth.
If Shu also found out about her ending through some means… Then everything would be explained!
Tang Shun swallowed nervously. It seemed that Mu Zheng was not so easy to fool this time.
Tang Shun calculated that his sister should be taking her lunch break at this time, so he quickly found the contact information of the place where his sister bought the taekwondo clothes.
The timing was perfect for giving away his share of the gift.
As for Mu Zheng, he had yet to figure out how to deal with him.
On the other side, Tang Shun's good sister was being harassed in the activity room.
