Shocking! The school heartthrob who was adopted by a wealthy family is actually a heiress!

Chapter 247

"Yes, you're so high and mighty. Weren't you making things difficult for Qin Zhao because you were lured in with empty promises? Now that the promises are gone, shouldn't the one who made those promises to you be the one biting the liar?"

Cao Hanwen retorted, "I didn't make things difficult for her because I received something in return. It's because what she did was immoral!"

"Do you still think Qin Zhao deceived Lin Jiashu's feelings for the sake of getting an award?"

Cao Hanwen remained silent, which clearly meant he acquiesced.

"Brother, please wake up. The Qin family is so rich, it's normal for them to be fawned over."

"Exactly, if she really wants to be recognized for her excellence, why does she need to go to Lin Jiashu? Teacher Kong likes her so much, why doesn't she just go to Teacher Kong? She could be the student council president."

"..."

Cao Hanwen was surprised that they had all united: "Didn't she say she was single and deliberately try to win over the minister so he would confess his feelings? They gave their group the most press releases at the beginning, but she didn't get any benefits?"

"..."

The girl gave him a thumbs up: "Awesome, a real man."

Cao Hanwen: "That's exactly right."

"..."

Although he said that, he didn't actually cause any trouble for Qin Zhao.

With exam week approaching, the meeting time was also significantly shortened.

Qin Zhao focused on reviewing his studies.

She had to take a leave of absence to make up for lost credits, and she had to take more exams than her classmates.

Gardenias are in full bloom.

One day, Qin Zhao had just finished watering it when Shen Yanci sent him a message.

Shen Yanci: "Did you water it?"

Qin Zhao: "Just finished watering."

She took a picture and sent it over. The gardenia had already been moved to the coffee table and would only be placed on the balcony at night.

Pure white flowers adorn the branches, and the leaves are lush and green. A few white petals have fallen onto the coffee table.

Shen Yanci: "So beautiful."

Although it wasn't a self-praise, Qin Zhao was still very happy, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Shen Yanci: "I will return to China the day after tomorrow."

Qin Zhao was taken aback: "You've finished your exams?"

Shen Yanci: "Mm."

Qin Zhao had a strange feeling. She tapped her phone with her finger and said, "Oh."

She looked at the screen and added, "We have exams coming up soon too."

Shen Yanci: "Are you busy with your studies?"

Qin Zhao: "Busy."

Shen Yanci: "Then can I still look at my flowers?"

Qin Zhao: "..."

Shen Yanci sent a message to Qin Zhao after getting off the plane, but she didn't see it until after she had been studying for a while.

She said okay.

Shen Yanci didn't reply. As school was about to end, Qin Zhao had a slight feeling that Shen Yanci might be waiting for her outside the teaching building.

but.

She sent a message: "When are you going to see your flowers?"

Shen Yanci: "I'll go when I have time."

"..."

Qin Zhao couldn't think of a reply for a moment.

She took two steps forward and typed: "My exam is the day after tomorrow."

Shen Yanci replied with an "Oh".

That was the last time.

I didn't message her the next day.

The flowers stopped asking questions.

Qin Zhao looked at the chat history. Couldn't Shen Yanci see the word "talent"?

She, Cong Shuang, and two other roommates came out of the study room together.

Cong Shuang: "Zhao Zhao, you seem a bit unhappy these past few days."

"Have it?"

Another roommate nodded in agreement: "Yes, are you under too much pressure from taking too many exams? I haven't finished memorizing them yet, so we'll highlight the key points for you later."

"Thank you."

There was a pebble at her feet, and she kicked it casually.

The pebble rolled to the willow tree at the corner.

She looked up and saw a tall figure standing by the willow tree at the corner.

The green willow branches hung down like ribbons, lush and verdant, and the hem of my dress swayed in the wind.

Shuang exclaimed, "He seems like a handsome guy, let's go check him out."

"..."

It could only be Shen Yanci.

From Shuang: "Lord Shen—"

Qin Zhao promptly turned off Shuang's microphone.

Shuang nodded with a big smile.

Shen Yanci greeted them. She then pulled her two other roommates along, saying, "Those with a sense of propriety, retreat immediately."

"..."

Before she left, she turned back and said, "Handsome, Zhao Zhao is under a lot of pressure from her exams these days, so try to comfort her."

"..."

Qin Zhao: What are you doing here?

Shen Yanci lowered his eyes to look at Qin Zhao, his tone slightly raised: "Does Hua have time today?"

Qin Zhao turned his gaze away: "No."

"..."

Shen Yanci looked at her for two seconds, said "Oh," and stood up straight without haste: "Then I'm leaving."

"..."

He took two steps, and Qin Zhao lowered her eyelashes and walked past him.

His schoolbag was grabbed, and Qin Zhao glanced at him: "What?"

Shen Yanci: "I want to eat in your cafeteria, you treat me."

"..."

Qin Zhao treated him to a meal and told Uncle Li that he didn't need to be picked up today.

She and Shen Yanci walked back to Lanting Bay.

Shen Yanci, carrying her schoolbag, asked, "Are you under a lot of exam pressure?"

Qin Zhao: "A little."

Shen Yanci: "Would you like a hug?"

"..."

"Hugs can reduce stress hormones and enhance feelings of security."

Qin Zhao glanced at him, and he stopped to look at her as well.

There were hardly any people on this street in the neighborhood.

Only the chirping of insects could be heard.

Qin Zhao lowered her eyelashes and wrapped her arms around his waist.

His body temperature emanated through the thin fabric of his clothes. Qin Zhao was actually wearing an overcoat, but she seemed to be able to feel his body temperature.

Shen Yanci's Adam's apple bobbed slightly as he looked down at her.

His hands were hanging down; he didn't hug her.

The elevator numbers slowly increased, and then with a ding, it stopped at Qin Zhao's house.

Lin Shi's autographed photo is still there.

Shen Yanci consciously put on Lin Shi's slippers.

As soon as the door opened, the air was filled with the fresh scent of gardenias.

Qin Zhao: "On the coffee table."

The gardenias are in full bloom, their pure white flowers nestled among the green leaves, their petals layered upon each other, gleaming with a warm luster under the lamplight.

Qin Zhao: "Move it to the balcony and let it get some fresh air. Also, trim off the withered flowers."

The flower storage boxes he put there last time are still on the balcony, neatly stored together.

Qin Zhao replied to Shen Yanci's message: "How should I cut it?"

Qin Zhao walked over and said, "Cut down two pairs of leaves."

Shen Yanci: "Like this?"

"You need to use your scissors like this," Qin Zhao demonstrated. "Try it."

Shen Yanci cut off the withered flowers as she had instructed.

The breeze blowing in through the balcony made the fragrance of gardenias even stronger.

Shen Yanci: "It smells wonderful."

Shen Yanci looked at her and said, "She's been raised so well."

Qin Zhao: "I put my heart into it too."

Her voice wasn't loud, but it was clearly audible.
