Chapter 249: Chapter 249: But Something Unexpected Happened

Zhao Tingting’s eyes reddened instantly, and she held back her embarrassment and tears as she withdrew her hand that was holding the beverage. “Then, alright, I, I’m leaving…”

After speaking, she bit her lip and sneakily glanced up at him again, but he still appeared unmoved.

Finally unable to bear such embarrassment any longer, Zhao Tingting swiftly swam away from in front of him, submerging into the water.

Not long after she left, Luo Mengmeng arrived with beverages she had just bought from the snack bar with Tong Mo and others. She looked up in the direction where Zhao Tingting had swum off to, her eyes full of suspicion as she stared at Gu Zhihan, who was still resting with his eyes closed. “Did Zhao Tingting come to see you just now?”

“Hmm…”

“What did she want with you?” Luo Mengmeng pouted, asking in a sour tone.

Gu Zhihan finally opened his eyes, a hint of a barely noticeable smile coloring his handsome face as he teasingly asked, “Are you jealous, Luo Mengmeng?”

“Yes!” Luo Mengmeng glanced again at the back of Zhao Tingting and then nodded vigorously.

She had overheard other classmates whispering that she liked Gu Zhihan.

Seeing Zhao Tingting approaching Gu Zhihan during the swimming class only intensified her sense of crisis.

Gu Zhihan watched her serious and solemn expression on her delicate doll-like face and couldn’t help but smile.

Luo Mengmeng shifted her gaze away and glared at him, “What are you laughing at, you haven’t told me what she wanted from you?”

“She brought me water,” Gu Zhihan said truthfully.

“Did you take it?” Luo Mengmeng’s voice instinctively rose, sharp with a touch of girlishness, not grating but rather like a little cat having a tantrum.

Damn!

She had only been away for a while, and someone had already taken the opportunity.

Gu Zhihan couldn’t help but lift his hand and pinch her, “No.”

After speaking, his gaze fell on the bottle of mineral water in her hand, and he asked with a lift of his lips, “Is this water for me?”

Before she could finish speaking, he reached out to take the mineral water from her hand.

The water was originally for her, so when he reached for it, Luo Mengmeng simply let go, but she said pretentiously, “Considering you didn’t take another girl’s water, I guess I’ll just give you mine then!”

Gu Zhihan rolled his eyes at her and then unscrewed the cap, drinking most of the bottle.

Having been in the water for so long, he was already thirsty…

His act of drinking water was noticed by Zhao Tingting, who had just climbed ashore.

Her gaze tightened instantly, settling on their faces.

When she had offered him water earlier, he had clearly said he wasn’t thirsty, but when Luo Mengmeng gave him water, he drank most of the bottle immediately.

And it was just one yuan’s worth of cheap mineral water.

Zhao Tingting glanced at the branded mineral water by her side, a surge of resentment rising within her.

What was so good about Luo Mengmeng? Sure, she had a pretty face, but she wasn’t much worse. In terms of talents or academic performance, she was no less than her.

Yet, he had chosen a bottle of cheap water.

Zhao Tingting couldn’t understand that although the water might seem cheap to her, it was like a treasure in Gu Zhihan’s eyes.

People aren’t necessarily steadfast in their affection for someone because of their talents, academic performance, or anything else.

Soon, the bell for the end of the swimming class rang.

Classes like these always seemed to pass quickly.

Luo Mengmeng and Gu Zhihan climbed out of the pool, and just as they were about to separate to go to their changing rooms to change back into their uniforms, an unexpected event occurred…
