Chapter 108: Forced Compromise
"Ah! Woman, I've ruined your face!"
He stood up, looking down at Qiao Anyu with a sneering expression: "Woman, I was ruined because of you. Speak... how are you going to compensate me!"
"Shu Zimo, do you have any logical thinking? What are you talking about? You're the one who's suffering from your own actions, yet you're blaming me for it! Let everyone judge, is it my fault or yours? Moreover, aren't you the one who loves to act cool? Having a scar on your face wouldn't make you even cooler? Why don't you go join the underworld and see if you can be more successful than you are in school?" Qiao Anyu sneered coldly, standing up as well, trying to look him straight in the eye but failing to do so.
Shu Zimo, this scourge of humanity, has actually grown so tall already?
"Madam, the compensation I'm asking for is not excessive. Du Jing's birthday is approaching, come with me to pick out a gift and I won't pursue your responsibility, how about it?" Shu Zimo didn't refute her, and instead directly stated the conditions of the compensation in a low voice.
The idea of giving Du Jing a birthday gift was inspired by Gu Siqi's words: "Shu Zimo, Yulian and I are very curious, aren't you and Du Jing together? But sometimes Du Jing comes to find you, yet you rarely take the initiative to look for her. Isn't that strange? Yulian also said that she only saw you being affectionate in front of her on the day you just got together, but at other times, it didn't feel like you two were a couple, more like two polite strangers. She even complained to me that you're too thin, and Du Jing must be suffering following you around. No wonder nobody knows that the famous Master Shu has already been taken."
No matter what Gu Siqi's intention was in saying these words, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and Jo An Yu's cold evaluation of him made him feel like a fish bone stuck in his throat.
Woman, since you think I'm not good enough to Du Jing and won't take the initiative to find her, then I'll be very good to her, let you see that Shi Zimo's tenderness and thoughtfulness towards his girlfriend is in no way inferior to Yu Zhe!
"Don't go!" Qiao An Yu carefully gathered up the fragments and put them in a plastic bag.
"Yu Ze, quickly help me tell her something." Shu Zimo suddenly blurted out this sentence.
Qiao Anyu turned her head and saw Su Yuzhe standing behind her, smiling at her and Shu Zimo.
But the classmates in the class are used to it and take their quarrels for granted. After all, they're like siblings, and a bit of bickering is unavoidable. Who doesn't have brothers and sisters who fight with each other?
"Qiao Anyu, please help Zimo out. He's a boy and doesn't understand anything. After all, girls know what other girls like, and know what to give them." Su Yuzhe spoke up for Shu Zimo.
Shu Zimo, you'd better go find Du Jing, it would make her happier than giving her any gift. Qiao Anyu thought to herself, but didn't say anything, after all, she didn't want to expose his secret in public. If the news that Shu Zimo had a girlfriend got out, the teachers might not say anything, after all, his grades were there; but the girls would be heartbroken. Mainly it was because of her own selfishness. Later on, a lot of girls would come to ask herself, as his cousin, who Shu Zimo's girlfriend was, wouldn't that be annoying!
It's better to have one less thing. Moreover, in order to show his magnanimity in front of Su Yu Zhe, he should be a big man who doesn't remember the mistakes of small people, so that's it.
Gu Siqi winked at her, hinting that she should agree with Shu Zimo.
"Alright, I'll give Su Yuzhe some face. But let me make one thing clear, I'm not compromising with you! You tell me, when do we go?" Qiao Anyu reluctantly agreed to Shu Zimo.
"I've been waiting for you to say that all day!" Shu Zimo said crisply.
Then, Qiao Anyu Lian again very weakly surrendered to Su Yu Zhe's gentleness, betraying her own intentions.
