○ A chaotic, intermittently unhinged girl who's both brave and timid × a quick-witted guy with a mouth full of cheeky remarks
-
The ridiculously handsome, brainy guy from the chemistry department next door got cheated on. His ex-girlfriend's former friend exposed the two-timing couple with an 87-page PowerPoint presentation. Everyone who heard the gossip felt sorry for the handsome guy.
On her way to the campus store, Feng Li heard the story and couldn't help feeling sorry for him.
"What was that girl thinking, cheating on a handsome guy just to get with a kappa? She should've aimed higher."
"He's that handsome and smart, too. I'd just go, 'Hey, husband!'"
As luck would have it, the guy in question passed right by her.
Feng Li shut her mouth in horror and nearly choked.
He didn't hear that, did he?
.
Chi Zui left the lab and saw someone confessing at an intersection. As he passed by, he noticed the girl looked awkward and uncomfortable.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he turned to her and asked, casually and naturally, "Aren't you coming over?"
Feng Li hadn't expected him to bail her out.
The guy whose confession had been interrupted was annoyed. He accused Chi Zui of meddling and demanded to know who he was.
Chi Zui thought for a moment. "Her... husband?"
Feng Li: !!!
What are you spouting nonsense for?! It's bad enough when I do it, but why are you doing it too?! I didn't ask you to bail me out! (Lets out a piercing shriek)
