The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 102 Scared Unconscious
Could it be that my stunning beauty isn't worth as much as a bowl of noodles? Su Ziyan fell into contemplation once more.
Women are hard to understand. Take now, for example, where the campus belle, Su Ziyan, is actually jealous of a bowl of noodles.
Ma Xiaoyao, however, didn't care what Su Ziyan was thinking. He asked eagerly, "So, do you want to work together?"
"Well, alright!" Su Ziyan didn't know why she agreed, maybe because she really wanted to see Gu Yifan get his comeuppance? But more than that, she seemed more concerned about how Ma Xiaoyao was going to get his revenge.
"Okay!" Ma Xiaoyao snapped his fingers and said, "Call him and ask where he is. We'll go find him!"
"Oh." Su Ziyan responded and took out her phone to make the call.
The call connected, and Gu Yifan's voice came through, "What do you want now? Didn't I tell you to stop bothering me!"
The volume was loud, and Ma Xiaoyao heard everything clearly. Su Ziyan immediately felt embarrassed, but she could only blame herself for not thinking of an excuse. What could she say now? She couldn't exactly say she wanted to see him.
"I..." Su Ziyan stammered, twisting her fingers, when suddenly a flash of inspiration struck. "Since we've already broken up, I want to return the ring you gave me. Where are you? I'll come find you!"
Just now, as Su Ziyan was twisting her fingers, she suddenly felt the ring on her hand that Gu Yifan had given her.
Gu Yifan hesitated for a moment on the other end of the phone. In the end, he decided the ring was quite expensive, so if Su Ziyan wanted to return it, he would let her. Therefore, he said in an icy tone, "I'm at Xinyu Internet Cafe. Come find me."
After speaking, Gu Yifan hung up before Su Ziyan could respond. Su Ziyan opened her mouth, but hearing the busy tone, she closed it and put away her phone.
"He's at Xinyu Internet Cafe," Su Ziyan said to Ma Xiaoyao.
"Good, we'll go find him now." Ma Xiaoyao smiled coldly.
Ma Xiaoyao led Su Ziyan out of the private room and shouted, "Boss Lady, I have something to do, so I'm leaving early today!"
Cai Dajie was about to reprimand Ma Xiaoyao for arriving late and leaving early, but when she saw Su Ziyan, who looked like a flower, standing next to Ma Xiaoyao, she immediately gave up on the idea and said very cooperatively, "It's okay, you go do your thing. I can handle it myself."
As Cai Dajie spoke, she winked at Ma Xiaoyao. Ma Xiaoyao thought, "Well, the Boss Lady definitely misunderstood."
Ma Xiaoyao didn't explain. He led Su Ziyan out, but as soon as they walked out the door, Cai Dajie suddenly called out, "Wait, Xiaoyao, come here for a moment!"
Ma Xiaoyao returned to the restaurant, puzzled. "What's wrong, Boss Lady?"
Cai Dajie had already taken a hundred-yuan bill out of her pocket and handed it to Ma Xiaoyao, winking and saying, "Take this, Xiaoyao. You can't take a girl out without any money!"
Ma Xiaoyao was sweating. He explained, "Boss Lady, you've misunderstood. She's just my..."
"Oh, just take it, don't explain it to me. Who hasn't been young before!" Cai Dajie stuffed the money into Ma Xiaoyao's pocket while pushing him out the door.
Ma Xiaoyao was helpless, but at the same time, he felt a warm current in his heart. He was greedy for this family-like warmth, so he no longer refused Cai Dajie and walked out with the money.
Cai Dajie looked at the departing figures with satisfaction, a kind smile on her face like a mother looking at her children. After they had walked a good distance, she shouted, "Xiaoyao, be good to the girl!"
Ma Xiaoyao wanted to cry, what was all this? It was one thing for her to misunderstand him, but don't include the campus belle, Su Ziyan!
However, to Ma Xiaoyao's surprise, the campus belle, Su Ziyan, didn't seem to show any aversion to Cai Dajie's shout. Instead, she lowered her head shyly.
Dusk fell, and the lights came on. The faint yellow glow under the streetlights added a bit of ambiguous atmosphere to the air.
Ma Xiaoyao didn't go to internet cafes often, but he knew where Xinyu Internet Cafe, the largest internet cafe near Rende High School, was located.
Xinyu Internet Cafe was separated from Jingyang Restaurant by two small streets. The distance wasn't short, but it definitely wasn't far.
To get to the internet cafe faster, Ma Xiaoyao quickened his pace. Soon, the two arrived at their destination.
There was more than just Rende High School near the internet cafe, so at this time, the internet cafe was already packed with students from nearby schools.
After entering the internet cafe, Ma Xiaoyao looked around, searching for Gu Yifan's figure.
At this moment, Su Ziyan gently tugged on Ma Xiaoyao's sleeve and said, "He's on the second floor, not here."
After looking around, Ma Xiaoyao indeed didn't find Gu Yifan, so he asked curiously, "How do you know?"
Su Ziyan smiled playfully and said, "Because smoking is prohibited on the first floor, but you can secretly smoke on the second floor, so he always goes to the second floor whenever he comes to the internet cafe."
Ma Xiaoyao gave Su Ziyan a thumbs up!
As they spoke, the two had already walked up to the second floor. At this moment, Su Ziyan suddenly pulled Ma Xiaoyao again and asked with some worry, "What are you planning to do to him? He has a lot of friends here. If a fight breaks out, you'll be at a disadvantage. Why don't we just forget about it today?"
Su Ziyan didn't know why she was so muddle-headed, only remembering this now. Fortunately, it wasn't too late.
Ma Xiaoyao chuckled and said, "Don't worry about it. Relax, I won't fight him. By the way, what's his name?"
Ma Xiaoyao naturally wouldn't fight Gu Yifan. He thought that if he only beat up this kind of scum, the punishment would be too light.
"His name is Gu Yifan," Su Ziyan replied.
At this moment, Ma Xiaoyao had already spotted Gu Yifan's figure among the many computers. At this moment, he was embracing a woman with a hot body and flamboyant makeup.
The two were sitting in a large booth in the corner, which was more convenient for them to be affectionate.
Su Ziyan followed Ma Xiaoyao's gaze and saw the two kissing. She immediately turned her head away with a look of disgust.
"Hey, give me the ring. Aren't you going to return it to him? I'll help you return it." Ma Xiaoyao nudged Su Ziyan's arm and said.
"Oh, oh." Su Ziyan obediently took off the ring and handed it to Ma Xiaoyao.
