Su Meimei slammed the car door shut forcefully, her face brimming with anger. Su Hongyu felt a bit helpless. It seemed that Meimei's temper had grown even worse over the years! He tapped on the car window, and Su Meimei pulled it down expressionlessly. "Brother, let's go! Let's go home!"
"We're still waiting for Ziqi," Su Hongyu said. "What's wrong with you? Who made our little princess angry?"
"Humph!" Su Meimei let out a furious snort. Who made her angry? It was all that guy...
It all started when Su Meimei was leaving school after classes. As she walked out of the school gate, she happened to see Jiang Ling from Class One. The Jiang family had the closest relationship with the Su family. She knew Jiang Ling and had met him many times. He was gentle and good - looking, and she quite fancied him.
So she mustered up the courage to invite someone for the first time. "Jiang Ling, would you like to go for tea this weekend?"
Jiang Ling was just looking at the staircase, a look of dejection on his face. Hearing Su Meimei's words, he simply and indifferently refused. "No."
Su Meimei immediately felt embarrassed. What was going on? Wasn't he going to give her, the daughter of the Su family, any face when she personally invited him?
"What's up? Do you already have an appointment?" Su Meimei tried to suppress her inner anger and asked softly.
Jiang Ling had always regarded Su Meimei as just an acquaintance, and not a very close one at that. Su Meimei was indeed very beautiful, but she was too fond of attracting boys. He heard that two boys had a big fight because of her just the day before! He didn't like girls like this. It was better to be like Su Rou, sometimes a bit dazed but with excellent academic performance and never attracting boys. That was the best kind!
"Yes, I have an appointment," Jiang Ling said, hoping to put an end to Su Meimei's thoughts.
"Ah, that's too bad..." Su Meimei frowned. He already had an appointment? Which bitch had moved so fast?! "Who is it with?"
"Do I have to tell Miss Su?" Jiang Ling shrugged. "Well, I have to do some exercises."
Saying that, he started to revise. He swore that he must surpass Su Rou! He wanted to make Su Rou yield to him in this way!
"Why are you being so polite?" Su Meimei said with a coquettish smile. They were quite familiar, so why call her Miss Su! "Hey, are you really not going this weekend?"
"No," which was the second reason why Jiang Ling didn't like Su Meimei! She always spoke to people in a commanding tone. Maybe other boys would fawn on her, but he, Jiang Ling, would never! Absolutely not!
"Fine, fine... If you don't want to go, then don't! Who cares!" Su Meimei suddenly felt embarrassed. In fact, he had just straightforwardly refused. To say she was embarrassed... well, it was just what Su Meimei thought of herself!
So Su Meimei rushed out of the school gate in a huff and got into Su Hongyu's car in one go.
"Brother Ziqi is really annoying. He's always so late!" Su Meimei said dejectedly. Because of being rejected by Jiang Ling, she really wanted to go home and vent now!
Jiang Ling walked out unhurriedly with his schoolbag on his back. Without even glancing at Su Meimei, he got into his family's car and left! Su Hongyu heard Su Meimei's curses getting louder... Su Hongyu looked at her amusingly. It seemed she had reached puberty!
On the other side...
After Su Yuze waited for Su Rou to get in the car, he asked curiously, "Why are you a bit late today?" Could it be that she had encountered some reckless boys who wanted to do something improper to her again?
But Su Rou didn't pay much attention to Su Yuze's words. Instead, she happily said to him, "Brother Ze, I saw Brother Hongyu!" Su Hongyu hadn't been back for several years. Anyway, he was her elder brother, and he had been nice to her when they were kids. So Su Rou didn't dislike this eldest brother! "Brother Hongyu is back!"
Su Yuze nodded slowly while starting the engine. "I know." Of course he knew that Su Hongyu was back. Because Su Kaiming intended to let the two of them meet and talk about work matters. It would be even better if they could form an alliance!
An alliance? It wasn't impossible, but it would depend on the sincerity of the Su Corporation!
"You knew? Then why didn't you tell me?" Brother Hongyu had finally come back, and it seemed she was the last one to know. That was so inappropriate!
"If I told you, what would you do?"
"Nothing. At least you should let me know a bit," Su Rou said matter - of - factly. "It's more polite that way!"
Oh... silly girl! "Well, you still haven't answered my question. Is this polite?"
"What question?" Su Rou asked in confusion. Had Su Yuze asked her something just now? She seemed to have no memory of it.
"Why are you late today?" Su Yuze really wanted to knock on her head.
" Oh... " Su Rou let out an "oh". "I was stopped by someone." It was all Jiang Ling's fault. He had to ask her some questions even after school. How annoying!
"Who?" Sure enough, there were some damned guys daring to provoke Su Rou again? Su Yuze's face suddenly turned cold. Just thinking about the scene when Su Rou was injured by Liu Hao last time, his temper wasn't very good!
Seeing Su Yuze's expression, Su Rou knew that he must have misunderstood. "No, it's the monitor of our class. He wanted to ask me some questions, so it took a while." Jiang Ling was a decent person, so she simply didn't want Brother Ze to have any misunderstandings with him.
"Ask you? What are the teachers for?" If there were questions, they could ask the teachers! Or they could just look it up online. Why did he have to ask Su Rou? "A boy?"
Su Rou nodded. "Yeah, he loves studying. He always asks me questions during breaks... He's also the top student in the grade!" Humph, she would definitely surpass him next time!
The top student in the grade? If his grades were good, then there was even less reason for him to ask Little Rou'er! Su Yuze snorted coldly in his heart. That boy just wanted to get close to Little Rou'er!
"Do you like him?" Su Yuze asked softly, but somehow, there was a bit of jealousy in his tone.
"I don't dislike him. Brother Ze, Jiang Ling is very gentle!" At least he was much better than those smoking boys around! But... as for liking, it was still far from that!
The hand holding the steering wheel tightened involuntarily. Not disliking... did that mean she liked him? For the first time in his life, Su Yuze felt a stuffy and uncomfortable feeling in his chest, and he had an urge to punch someone!
He knew that high - school students were in the budding stage of puberty... But! Couldn't the budding be a bit slower! It had only been a month, and they didn't even know each other well. He really couldn't feel at ease!
"Little Rou'er, remember what I said last time?" Su Yuze asked.
"Hmm?"
"No dating!"
"I remember, but I'm not dating."
"No dating for the whole three years of high school!" Su Yuze said gloomily.
Su Rou scratched her head. "Oh, okay." Anyway, she didn't plan to date!
