Chapter 972

Although he had not revealed anything yet.

Chen Meng’er indicated that she needed some time to adjust her state of mind. Therefore, she felt that before she could adjust her state of mind, she should reduce her contact with Zhou Yunjie.

Fortunately, Zhou Yunjie had been very busy recently. He was busy with the training of the Windwalk Group. Otherwise, with Zhou Yunjie’s keen senses, he would definitely have noticed something. Even Su Jin had noticed something.

However, since Chen Meng’er didn’t say anything, she pretended that she didn’t know anything.

“Su Jin, do you know that my brother’s spot for further study was stolen by the Han family?” Chen Meng’er looked at Su Jin with a bad expression.

“I just received the news. I was about to use this to find you, Little Miss.” Su Jin had also just received the news from the intelligence team. “This matter was done by the Han family. Han Ying was also involved.”

Yuwen Jing had been extremely depressed recently. Logically speaking, he had just confirmed his relationship with Chen Meng’er, and he had gotten what he wanted. He had given his first kiss to her. And Chen Meng’er’s first kiss had also been given to him. He should be in the prime of his life.

However, he was different.

Ever since the last time he went on a date with Chen Meng’er at the movie theater, he had not been able to find a suitable excuse to ask Chen Meng’er out. It was not that Chen Meng’er was not willing to agree to his date, it was Elder Liu. Although Elder Qu had agreed to let him stay in school for the time being, they were still wary of him.

The moment he said that he wanted to ask Chen Meng’er out, Elder Liu and Elder Qu looked at him warily and asked, “Where are you going to ask our Meng’er out?”

“Why would you want to ask her out? Isn’t it good for her to be in the Green Gang?”

Well, with Elder Liu and Elder Qu around, the only place where he and Chen Meng’er could go on a date was in the Green Gang.

If he was in the Green Gang, then so be it. At least, he could still go on a date with Chen Meng’er. It would be sweet and cute. He had even prepared a pink diamond necklace for Chen Meng’er that he had personally designed. However, imagination was beautiful, but reality was cruel.

There was a new obstacle to overcome— Elder Wharton.

Elder Wharton was much more difficult to deal with than Elder Liu and Elder Qu. At most, Elder Liu and Elder Qu were just preventing him from spending more time alone with Chen Meng’er. Elder Wharton, on the other hand, was always at odds with him and causing trouble everywhere.

Every time he wanted to take out the necklace that he had personally designed and give it to Chen Meng’er, Elder Wharton would suddenly appear. Then, he would find all sorts of reasons to call Chen Meng’er away from his side.

Elder Wharton’s actions were deliberate, and the reasons he found were very far-fetched. He and Chen Meng’er both knew that Elder Wharton was doing this on purpose, but they had no choice. Who asked Elder Wharton to be an elder?

If it was Chen Ming, Yuwen Jing wouldn’t be so sullen.

The sullen Yuwen Jing was called back by his grandmother to eat. He had not let go of this frown the entire night. His face was full of worry.

This made Marquis Yuwen look very unhappy. “I say, you brat, what kind of expression have you been wearing the entire night? Your grandmother and I rarely call you back for dinner. Is there a need for you to look at us with such an expression? In the future, if you don’t want to come back, just say it. Your grandmother and I will not force you.”
