Chapter 37 How to Use the Young Lady
Chapter 37 How to Use the Young Lady
How could a single cat possibly cheat on her partner?!
Gu Zhibei corrected his thinking.
Although the girl looks aggressive and acts like "I'm not someone to mess with," she also has a "cat hostage" under her control.
"Good morning," he said casually.
Seeing a beautiful young woman first thing in the morning is indeed a great morning.
Pei Qingning gave a blank "hmm".
Her assistant stood behind her, the screen of her phone displaying three enlarged characters.
[Morning grumpiness]
She felt it necessary to cultivate a good relationship with the young lady's male favorite.
After all, serving a ruler is like walking on thin ice.
Although the young lady looks like a pretty, naive girl, that's just her natural protective coloration.
These are the last words left by the previous generation.
Gu Zhibei nodded slightly and gestured to his assistant.
"Were you waiting for me?" he asked.
Pei Qingning didn't look like she had just bumped into him.
"Go to school," the girl said succinctly.
She seemed even colder than usual, still grumpy when she woke up.
Her eyes and brows were shrouded in a hazy mist, her eyelashes drooped listlessly, and her small face was taut. Although she was quiet and didn't make a fuss, she exuded an awkward and distant coldness.
"Pei rented my cat, do you want to rent mine again?"
Gu Zhibei prepared to negotiate the price.
However, the girl simply raised her eyes slightly and stared at him quietly.
The lines he had prepared suddenly got stuck in his throat.
The boy's little scheme was completely seen through.
How can someone who looks so dull be so smart?
Are the genes of the rich really that superior?
Gu Zhibei sighed, "I thought I would be lucky enough to become the young lady's plaything."
It seems we'll have to find another opportunity.
Let's try again when Pei Qingning's mood improves.
He walked toward the school.
The girl followed behind, keeping a distance of about one meter.
Like a perverted, obsessive woman who stalks a handsome young man.
Sometimes when Gu Zhibei looked back, he would see Pei Qingning staring at the top of his head.
Her taut face has relaxed considerably.
Gu Zhibei already had the answer in his heart.
Why does the young lady care about him so much, even going so far as to move house and go to school together just to stick to him?
The reason is that he transformed into a tabby cat.
Pei Qingning is not a rich and foolish young lady.
Every unusual action she takes must have its own reason.
He was so temperamental this morning, yet I was still willing to wait for him at the door.
That must be to see the tabby cat.
With this analysis, the answer naturally becomes clear.
Above his head was a tabby cat.
Only Pei Qingning can see this cat.
As for whether it was a soul, a substitute, or something else, Gu Zhibei had no idea.
But he guessed that the young lady's superpower also allowed her to see people's emotional fluctuations.
In this way, the other party's request to draw the ghost card, as well as their unusual behavior at the time, can be explained logically.
However, she most likely cannot directly "read minds".
Otherwise, Pei Qingning wouldn't have confused the relationship between "Gu Zhibei" and "Tanuki Cat".
Do other superpowers really exist in this world?
So, the strangeness about Jiang Youyu must also be one of them.
But she revealed far too little information, and she always tried to avoid me after nine o'clock.
The answer still has to be found in that diary.
Gu Zhibei pondered for a moment, then casually opened the bag of bread in his hand.
He had just taken a bite and hadn't even swallowed it when he saw Pei Qingning walk up to him.
"You're not allowed to eat it." She looked at the bread with a hint of disgust in her eyes.
Gu Zhibei said helplessly, "This is my breakfast. I'll starve if I don't eat it."
Pei Qingning remained silent and looked at her assistant.
The assistant immediately ran to a breakfast shop by the roadside, bought a basket of xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), a tea egg, and a cup of soy milk, and handed them to her.
Pei Qingning then handed it to Gu Zhibei, saying calmly:
"The bread was awful."
"The steamed buns are delicious."
Does the young lady actually have a Chinese stomach?
That makes sense, after all, she's the daughter of a landlord, born and raised on this land.
Gu Zhibei had mixed feelings. Faced with the girl's "I'll kill you if you don't eat" look, he threw the bread into the trash can.
Based on my speculation about Pei Qingning's superpowers, it's not hard to figure out her motives for doing this.
He also likes to eat hot breakfasts; he only eats bread to save time.
Eating the same thing every day will naturally taste bland and tasteless.
If he's unhappy, then the tabby cat on his head will be unhappy too.
Why is Pei Qingning so concerned about the tabby cat she has transformed into?
Gu Zhibei found no clues about this.
However, not knowing the principle does not mean that it cannot be used.
If I have an urgent matter that I can't resolve, wouldn't it be easy to get her help if I just walk around in front of her?
The young lady's method of use is actually this simple?
Fortunately, Pei Qingning met a morally upright person like him, otherwise she would definitely have been completely deceived and taken advantage of.
The boy took the breakfast, a strange feeling rising in his heart.
I have a feeling that I'm really being kept by her...
He thought for a moment, then put half of the buns into the bag containing the tea eggs, and handed the other half to Pei Qingning.
"Want some?"
The assistant spoke up: "Miss has already eaten..."
She was halfway through her sentence when she saw the girl take the steamed bun.
The assistant felt like the sky had fallen.
They didn't even feed the young lady!
Dying with such heavy sins, you'll definitely go to hell!
Her face was contorted, but no one paid any attention.
The boy's attention was now completely focused on the girl beside him.
She gently blew on the steamed bun, occasionally rubbing her lips together, until she felt the time was right, then she took small bites of the bun like a greedy little hamster.
Scalding juice gushed out from the bite mark, burning the girl's delicate eyebrows, which furrowed indignantly, but she couldn't bear to let a single drop go to waste.
That usually aloof face now appeared unusually charming.
It was the end of September, and the lingering heat of late summer tore through the gloomy sky, splashing a warm golden hue across the horizon.
The morning light fell on her face, creating a faint golden halo that enveloped the girl's gentle brows and eyes.
Perhaps because she had sweated slightly from the heat, her porcelain-like white skin appeared somewhat pinkish in the sunlight.
Just looking at that face makes my appetite several times stronger.
No wonder Pei Qingning likes tabby cats so much.
Beauty is a truly terrifying thing.
The two walked all the way to the school.
Along the way, people kept casting surprised, envious, or gossipy glances at me.
It probably won't be long before word spreads that he and Pei Qingning are going to school together.
Gu Zhibei didn't care much about this.
It's good that word gets out, so those young girls won't keep bothering me.
As for the boys?
There's even less to worry about then.
Sending a few license plate numbers will solve the problem.
As she approached the classroom, Pei Qingning suddenly stopped.
She used a tone of voice used when communicating with a kitten:
"No running around at noon."
"I've come to find you."
