TLCBITAR Chapter 75

Chapter 75: What’s Up With Pei Yanlie?

The classroom was abuzz with noise, as students whispered to each other, discussing the latest news announced by the student union.

“Pei always has too much money to spend, doesn’t he? He’s actually going to install elevators in the old dormitory buildings.”

“Who cares? I live on the eighth floor, so I won’t have to climb stairs anymore.”

“This is terrible! How am I supposed to lose weight by climbing stairs after the elevator is installed?”

“Stop making excuses for your laziness.”

…

Zhou Zhou propped his chin on his hand, eavesdropping on the conversations of the other students.

Install elevators? Just like the novel’s plot.

However, in the novel, the male lead installed the elevators for the female lead.

What about now? The male and female leads haven’t even exchanged glances. It’s definitely not because of love.

So, what the hell is up with Pei Yanlie?

Qu Jing’s distinctive footsteps came from the doorway, and the classroom instantly fell silent. All the students straightened their backs and stared intently at old Qu, who was wearing a floral shirt.

It was the first time they had seen old Qu dressed so flamboyantly, so there must be something up.

Qu Jing placed the textbook on the podium, covered his mouth, and cleared his throat, saying, “I have some good news for you.”

Chen Qihang sat up straight and perked up his ears to listen.

Zhou Zhou lazily yawned, feeling drowsy.

Qu Jing’s expression gradually became excited, and he said with great emotion, “At the end of this month, our class will send five students to the headquarters of Tianchuang Technology for a tour and study. The study period will be three days, and all expenses for food, accommodation, etc., will be sponsored by President Pei.”

Zhou Zhou was not interested, but the others looked very enthusiastic.

He turned his head to look at Chen Qihang and saw that he had an expression of righteous indignation, gnashing his teeth. He curiously asked, “Why do you have that expression?”

Chen Qihang held up his book as a shield, lowered his head slightly, and whispered, “That Black Spider is in Tianchuang Technology.”

“So what? Do you want to go?” Zhou Zhou asked in a low voice.

Chen Qihang clenched his small fist and said angrily, “I want to! I want to see if that guy has a wretched and arrogant look.”

Black Spider’s disgusting taste had made him sleepless for days and nights, and he wished he could one day step on him and crush him fiercely.

Zhou Zhou raised his eyebrows and retorted, “There are only five places. Don’t even think about it. There are at least fifty students in the class. It won’t be your turn.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Qu Jing began to announce the students who would participate in the activity. “After a lottery, Su Wanxing, Zhou Zhou, Chen Qihang, Mu Xinyao, and Liu Qian, the five of you will go to Tianchuang Technology headquarters for a tour and study at the appointed time.”

Zhou Zhou instantly blew up, wondering if this was a lottery or an inside job?!

His face darkened, and his eyebrows furrowed together. He refused, “Old Qu, I’m giving up this spot.”

Qu Jing took the pointer and walked down from the podium, step by step, towards Zhou Zhou.

Zhou Zhou was not afraid of him, straightening his back. His slightly raised phoenix eyes contained a light of unwillingness to submit.

Qu Jing tapped the pointer lightly on his desk and said, word by word, “This is something decided by the principal’s lottery. If you don’t want to go, then go to the principal’s office after class and explain your reasons to him.”

However, after class, Zhou Zhou changed his mind.

He spent an entire class carefully recalling the content of the novel, constantly brainwashing himself.

The male and female leads are true love, true love. Everyone else must stand aside, including himself.

Thinking that Su Wanxing was also going to Pei Yanlie’s company, a pile of sinister schemes popped up in his mind.

This was a God-given opportunity, and he had to seize this chance to bring the male and female leads together. He didn’t believe that the male lead would really ignore the little white flower female lead!

The phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated. Zhou Zhou took out his phone and looked at it. It was Pei Yanlie again!

He hesitated for a moment before answering the call.

“Zhou Xiaozhou, come downstairs to the first floor.” A low and magnetic voice, carrying an undeniable meaning, entered Zhou Zhou’s ears.

Zhou Zhou pretended to be surprised and said, “Ah? Is Senior Pei on the first floor now?”

Pei Yanlie said lightly, “Yes.”

Zhou Zhou felt a surge of anger in his heart. Pei Yanlie was really too free, running to the school to trouble him again and again.

He lied shamelessly, “I’m sorry, Senior Pei, I’m busy studying now and can’t leave for a while.”

“Okay, I’ll come up to find you.” After speaking, Pei Yanlie hung up the phone.

“Hello?”

“Damn it, so persistent.” Zhou Zhou didn’t want to be alone with Pei Yanlie at all.

So, he quickly got up and ran out of the classroom, muttering, “Go to the bathroom or the roof?”

Time was tight, and he couldn’t think too much. He quickly ran to the staircase. He saw Pei Yanlie’s tall and straight figure appearing at the corner, which startled him, and he ran upstairs.

[Don’t see me! Don’t see me!]

[I’ll hide on the roof and see how you find me!]

Zhou Zhou didn’t know that Pei Yanlie had heard his thoughts clearly.

Pei Yanlie slightly raised his lips, his eyes showing a hint of interest, and walked upstairs step by step with noble and elegant steps.

Zhou Zhou ran to the top floor in one breath and found that the door at the entrance of the roof was locked.

“What a pit.” He leaned against the wall and complained, his voice with obvious panting.

[This is the eighth floor. Pei Yanlie will definitely not come up!]

However, the next moment, a heavy footstep drilled into his ears.

Zhou Zhou poked his head out from the staircase railing and saw it, and his whole body instantly stiffened.

[It’s over! What is he doing running up here for no reason?]

Pei Yanlie looked up at him and saw his round eyes, looking at himself with resentment and vigilance. He thought it was very cute, like a frightened kitten.

He raised his foot and walked to Zhou Zhou, saying lightly, “Why didn’t you answer the phone when I called you this morning?”

Zhou Zhou took a step back, his whole body tight, and lied seriously, “Ah, did you? I put my phone on silent and didn’t hear it ring.”

[You’re the boss of a big company. What do you want to do by getting close to me, a nobody, all day long?]

Zhou Zhou couldn’t hold back the irritability in his heart and asked, “Senior Pei, what are you doing up here?”

Pei Yanlie answered lightly, “I came to the roof to inspect the surrounding buildings and plan to build a commercial street in the surrounding area.”

Zhou Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he wasn’t here to catch him.

He reminded, “The door to the roof is locked. You can’t get in.”

Pei Yanlie looked at him meaningfully and asked, “What are you doing running up here?”

He lied without changing his face, “Ah, um, let me think. It’s too stuffy in the classroom, so I wanted to come up and get some air.”

“By the way, Senior Pei, did you have something to talk to me about?”

Pei Yanlie stared at the prey in front of him with deep eyes, his voice very low, “It’s not a big deal. I just came over to see you.”

[666, also came over to see me by the way. Are you and I so familiar?]

Zhou Zhou slandered in his heart, but hung a dry smile on his face.

Seeing Pei Yanlie taking a step forward, he immediately stepped back, his back pressed tightly against the wall.

[Pei Yanlie, don’t let me down! Your body and heart can only be Su Wanxing’s!]

Pei Yanlie’s eyes gradually darkened. Thinking of how much Zhou Zhou cared about that girl, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of violence.

He slightly raised the corner of his mouth, revealing an imperceptible sneer, and said in a low voice, “Zhou Xiaozhou, do you have Su Wanxing’s contact information? Introduce her to me.”

Zhou Zhou: …

He widened his eyes and looked at Pei Yanlie in disbelief. After being shocked, he revealed a relieved smile.

[Things have taken a turn for the better, and the male lead is finally about to come to his senses! How could the male lead leave his wife alone? So he’s been holding back all along!]

[I was wondering why he wanted to install elevators for no reason. Sure enough, he still feels sorry for the little white flower female lead.]

Zhou Zhou relaxed his body, and the vigilance and suspicion in his heart instantly dissipated.

A dark light flashed quickly in Pei Yanlie’s eyes, and the corners of his mouth raised in a shallow arc.

Sure enough, as long as you give Zhou Xiaozhou a beginning, he can fill in the ending himself. So cute.
