Chapter 552: Chapter 552: What’s Driving Them Crazy Looking for Her?

Men naturally like to gaze at beautiful women, and Zhuo Feng never hid his fondness for doing just that; those who claim they don’t are simply too hypocritical.

The attention of several people was drawn by Zhuo Feng’s words, and they subconsciously looked towards the school.

Today, Shen Mianmian wore a pink tracksuit. Her skin was naturally fair and clean, and it appeared even more delicate against the pink clothing. Coupled with her simple high ponytail and wispy bangs, she looked sunny and pretty. The youthful and cheerful aura of a young girl was fully displayed on her.

For a moment, the three men present stared in amazement. Lu Siyuan was the first to snap out of it, throwing a smug glance at Gu Jianbin and Zhuo Feng before waving at Shen Mianmian and shouting, "Mianmian, come here quickly."

Shen Mianmian had already seen the group at the entrance, and she hadn’t avoided them—as surely she’d have to meet them sooner or later. Why would she need to hide like a thief?

However, she didn’t expect that Zhou Siyu had already gotten to know Gu Jianbin and that they’d come to the school together. It showed how naive she had been in her previous life not to see the unusual relationship between Gu Jianbin and Zhou Siyu.

As Shen Mianmian got closer, Zhou Siyu’s back teeth clenched with sourness. Indeed, Shen Mianmian was here, allowing Zhou Siyu over a month of relief—it was too easy for her.

Now that everyone had run into each other and it was too late to avoid the situation, Zhou Siyu calmed down instead.

"Why are you coming out only now? I almost thought you had gone back," Lu Siyuan couldn’t help but grumble as Shen Mianmian approached. Fortunately, he hadn’t left; otherwise, wouldn’t she have been bullied by so many people?

Each one of them was by no means easy to deal with.

"I just got held up a bit by something," Shen Mianmian made up an excuse casually. She wasn’t one to gossip, and she hadn’t planned on telling Lu Siyuan about the matter with Yang Xiaoxi.

"Sis, the family has been looking for you for a long time; why did you come to the third school?" Zhou Siyu stepped closer to Shen Mianmian and actively acknowledged her. With an expression of surprise and joy as if she truly cared for Shen Mianmian, she decided to take the initiative since avoidance was futile. Her gaze swept toward Lu Siyuan, "Is it because of him?"

With just a few brief sentences, not only did she express the relationship between them, but she also deliberately misled about the unusual nature of Shen Mianmian and Lu Siyuan’s relationship.

Shen Mianmian saw through Zhou Siyu’s little scheme in an instant; she was obviously trying to smear her character.

Having not seen her for several months, Zhou Siyu had indeed raised her level quite a bit, almost deserving applause from Shen Mianmian.

She responded with a sarcastic smile, "My parents took all the money to pay your tuition, not caring about me at all. If I don’t come to the third school, where should I be going then?"

She had watched her fair share of palace dramas, such as ’Empresses in the Palace’ and ’Ruyi’s Royal Love in the Palace,’ several times over. When it comes to playing mind games, she wasn’t necessarily inferior to Zhou Siyu.

Zhou Siyu’s eyes reddened with a look of grievance, "Sis, it was clearly you who took over a thousand yuan from home and left. Why are you still saying such things now? The family has almost gone mad looking for you."

"Gone mad looking for her?" Lu Siyuan’s forced twittering infuriated Lu Siyuan, "They are coveting the money in Mianmian’s hands, driven mad with concern, right? If it weren’t for knowing she had money, would they bother to look for Mianmian? I suppose if Mianmian were begging on the streets, they’d be completely indifferent."

Lu Siyuan had long since seen through the true nature of Shen Jianhua and his wife.

Such parents would be better off abandoned.

"Sis, are you going to just stand there while he insults our parents, who gave birth to and raised you?" Zhou Siyu looked at Shen Mianmian with a pained face, "They’re right, you’ve changed ever since you met Lu Siyuan."
