Chapter 120 A clever plan
"Don't look!"

Zhu Zhixue reached out and patted Li Zhuangsheng, forcibly pulling his head away. The people sitting at the same table with Hu Mengdie didn't know why she suddenly burst into tears, so they could only comfort her in a panic.

"She did it on purpose!" Zhu Zhixue lowered her voice and cursed Hu Mengdie for being shameless. "Don't mind it. It has nothing to do with you!"

"Um……"

Li Zhuangsheng lowered his eyes, feeling mixed emotions.

"What on earth does Hu Mengdie want to do!" Zhu Zhixue gritted her teeth, "I've never seen anyone so shameless. She's been rejected, but she's still clinging to me!"

Rather than feeling disgusted by Hu Mengdie's pestering, Zhu Zhixue was more afraid. She was afraid that if Hu Mengdie continued to pester her like this, Li Zhuangsheng would become soft-hearted.

But this obviously cannot be said openly, I can only curse Hu Mengdie in my heart for being so scheming!

"Hey, do you want to get rid of her?" Zhu Zhixue suddenly poked Li Zhuangsheng's wrist with chopsticks, her eyes flickering, "Actually, I have a good idea!"

"Sir, please enlighten me."

"She did this just to attract your attention and to be with you, right? So, as long as you have a partner, she should give up, right?"

"I said I don't want to be in a relationship, and besides, where can I find a partner?"

Zhu Zhixue looked at Li Zhuangsheng's head and sighed: "You are stupid, you can pretend to find one!"

Li Zhuangsheng tilted his head: "Who am I looking for?"

"Ahem, you can come to me... or Lin Yuehua!"

Zhu Zhixue felt that her idea was perfect, her heart was beating fast, and she knew it would definitely work!
She tried her best to suppress her inner excitement, hide her fox tail, and put on an expression of "I'm thinking about you" on her face.

"Actually, it's just a pretense. We're just pretending to be in a relationship in front of outsiders... I don't care anyway. I don't have a partner anyway. It's okay for me to play along with you... Well, actually Lin Yuehua is also okay, but the school doesn't allow premature love, so she may not do something that violates school rules and regulations..."

Zhu Zhixue blinked tentatively.

"What you mean is that we pretend to date each other and then persuade Hu Mengdie to back out, right?" Li Zhuangsheng finally understood.

"Yes... I told you, you can also talk to Lin Yuehua, but she may not agree, and..." Zhu Zhixue puffed out her chest and coughed, "I think I am still quite pretty. If you talk to Lin Yuehua, Hu Mengdie may not be convinced!"

Li Zhuangsheng laughed and shook his head gently: "Okay, stop joking."

Zhu Zhixue was a little anxious: "I'm not kidding, don't you want to get rid of Hu Mengdie?"

"It's useless to do this." Li Zhuangsheng explained in a low voice, "Even if we were dating, she wouldn't give up."

"How will you know if you don't try?"

"Because I understand her." Li Zhuangsheng's eyes were blurred and his smile was helpless and melancholy.

It is absolutely impossible to hide the fake relationship from Hu Mengdie, and even if she believes it, she will not give up easily.

After all, having been dating Hu Mengdie for two years, Li Zhuangsheng knew that Hu Mengdie was just like him. She seemed gentle and easy-going on weekdays, but deep down she was a stubborn person who would never turn back as long as she didn't get her head broken and bloody.

Zhu Zhixue was stunned, and her heart sank when she saw Li Zhuangsheng so confident.

How could she forget that there was an intimate past between these two people that she didn't know about? What kind of deep emotion was hidden behind the understated sentence "I know her"?
Zhu Zhixue's spirits instantly weakened. After she calmed down, she realized that she looked like a clown in her self-centeredness.

He shrank back and couldn't help but think of what Li Zhuangsheng said to Chen Zhongshi in the morning: Go back to Gotham City, Batman said he won't beat you anymore.

She blushed with embarrassment.

Fortunately, Li Zhuangsheng did not notice Zhu Zhixue's strangeness at this time. He took a deep breath, stood up and walked to Hu Mengdie. "Excuse me... Hu Mengdie, Li Xiuyu asked me to pass a message to you. Can you come over for a while?" Li Zhuangsheng smiled at Hu Mengdie and her friends.

The two walked to the side, and Li Zhuangsheng said softly: "Wait for me on the fifth floor of the Art Building in a while."

Hu Mengdie pursed her lips and forced a smile: "I see... I see you eat very quickly recently, you should eat slower, or you will get gastritis again."

Li Zhuangsheng nodded, did not stop, returned to his table as if nothing had happened and continued eating.

"What did you say to her?" Zhu Zhixue was curious.

"Nothing much. My sister has a good relationship with her, so she asked me to give her a message!" Li Zhuangsheng said casually.

"!"

Zhu Zhixue suddenly realized. She finally understood why Li Xiuyu suddenly came to her a few days ago and said all sorts of nonsense, saying that Li Zhuangsheng was not good at falling in love or something, implying that she should give up!

It turns out that she was standing up for her best friend!
Shameless, trying to make a detour when the frontal battlefield cannot be conquered? Zhu Zhixue sighed inwardly, because of a careless move, Hu Mengdie actually broke into our camp.

Li Zhuangsheng and Zhu Zhixue finished their meals with their own thoughts. On the way back to the classroom, Zhu Zhixue reminded them, "Oh, by the way, don't argue with Chen Zhongshi, and it's best not to conflict with him. He seems to know Liu Yuhao and the others."

Liu Yuhao is a famous gangster in the school, known as the leader of Xingpeng. He usually parades around with a group of brothers, looking quite glorious.

"Why should I conflict with him?" Li Zhuangsheng smiled.

"He...he actually pursued me when he was in the first year of high school..." Zhu Zhixue glanced at Li Zhuangsheng and waved her hands quickly. "Of course, I didn't agree. I rejected him on the spot! So, he might be a little jealous because of our good relationship."

She explained carefully, with mixed feelings. On the one hand, she hoped that Li Zhuangsheng would pay a little more attention to her, but on the other hand, she hoped that Li Zhuangsheng would not pay too much attention to her.

"Oh, that's how it is!" said Li Zhuangsheng.

Although he had already guessed it.

"I understand. I won't have a conflict with him." Li Zhuangsheng said with a smile, "If he wants to find someone to beat me up, I will give in..."

"That's right, be patient and don't bother with those hooligans..."

"Then I lay down on the ground and waited for their parents to lead them to my bedside and kowtow to apologize one by one."

I have worked so hard to see my father become a successful person, just for this day! Li Zhuangsheng thought to himself.

He rarely hated someone so much, the last one being Zhang Xu.

If it weren't for that trigger, he should still be living a happy and carefree life, with a sister, parents, a wife, and even his own children.

However, is happiness that can end so easily really happiness?

Something that bursts with a poke is called a dream bubble.

It's not right to blame Chen Zhongshi for this. In the future, he might just want to disgust himself, but he didn't expect that his defense would be completely broken. He is just a scapegoat.

Forget it, there’s no point in thinking so much… Chen Zhongshi did a good thing by accident.

If it weren't for that video, he might not have been reborn, but at least now, he can help the two people he failed to help back then.

After parting with Zhu Zhixue downstairs of the teaching building, Li Zhuangsheng walked towards the art building not far away.
