Chapter 976: Su Ying’er Likes Feng Jue

Editor: Henyee Translations

Su Ziyun had initially planned to move into Gu Yang’s dormitory. Despite past misunderstandings, she anticipated that spending more time together would naturally bring them closer.

At that time, she had believed Gu Yang was a Tong family member. Now that she knew Gu Yang was from the Xiao family, Su Ziyun was even more eager to share a room with her.

“Ning Gui, why did you suddenly change dormitories? If you leave, there won’t be anyone in the next dormitory to attend my class,” Su Ziyun said, her tone tinged with bitterness. “Do you not like me?”

Ning Gui, who had never been skilled at socializing, simply nodded.

She admired Qiao Manman for her ease with people and Gu Yang for her warm, sunny demeanor.

Su Ziyun’s expression faltered. She hadn’t expected Ning Gui to be so blunt.

Spring rain began to fall softly, and green buds emerged on the parasol trees below the dormitory building.

Gu Yang had entered the dormitory building before the rain began, and she was surprised by its sudden onset.

As she stepped out of the dormitory, she spotted Feng Jue waiting under the parasol tree. The sycamore tree, still sparse with leaves, offered little shelter from the rain.

In the drizzle, the young man stood tall and handsome, his fair face and noble aura drawing the attention of those around him.

Feng Jue had been waiting downstairs for a while without an umbrella, choosing to stand in the rain rather than seek shelter.

As Gu Yang prepared to approach and hold an umbrella for him, a girl stepped forward first.

She shyly offered her umbrella to Feng Jue and said, “Hello, I’ve seen you standing here for a while. The rain is getting heavier. Please use this umbrella. Could you give me your contact number so we can get to know each other?”

Gu Yang’s eyes widened. Had this girl taken a liking to her boyfriend?

Gu Jin clicked her tongue. “Attracting bees and butterflies.”

Feng Jue heard the girl’s voice and looked up, spotting Gu Yang behind her. He swiftly moved around the girl to stand under Gu Yang’s umbrella and coldly rejected the girl, “Thank you, but my girlfriend is here to pick me up.”

The girl’s face fell. She had expected that most boys waiting outside the female dormitory would have girlfriends, but this one was exceptionally good-looking.

She was about to boast about her own background and looks, hoping to overshadow Gu Yang. But when she recognized Gu Yang, her expression changed to one of shock. “Xiao Yang?”

Those familiar with Gu Yang wouldn’t use that name. It was usually reserved for people from wealthy families in the capital.

Gu Yang asked, “You are?”

Having met many people at the Xiao family reunion banquet, Gu Yang couldn’t place everyone. The girl in front of her seemed vaguely familiar.

Su Ying’er’s expression tightened. Disliking Gu Yang to begin with, she now found her arrogance grating. Her tone turned sarcastic. “I’m Su Ying’er, the second daughter of the Su family. We met at the banquet. Even if you’re unhappy about me offering your boyfriend an umbrella, you don’t need to act like you don’t know me.”

She implied that Gu Yang was being petty.

Gu Yang smiled. “So you’re Second Miss Su. That day, my boyfriend was with me at the banquet. Why did you pretend not to know him?”

At the Xiao family’s banquet, Gu Yang had been the center of attention, and Su Ying’er had been busy socializing. It was understandable that she might not have remembered Feng Jue.

“There were so many people; how was I supposed to know he’s your boyfriend?”

Gu Yang responded, “True, there were a lot of people. It’s hard to remember everyone. But is there something particularly notable about you, Second Miss Su? Perhaps you’re as good-looking as my boyfriend, or did you score exceptionally well on the College Entrance Examination?”
