Chapter 61: Don’t Be So Sarcastic

After the class ended, Qiao Xi held her phone and sighed.

She just wanted to look up information on Li City University. Why would she involve Gu Zheng? Zhou Guanjin was so unreliable. He would screw up whenever she really needed him.

She propped her chin and fell into deep thought. Logically speaking, she could hack into Li City University’s system to investigate what she wanted to know. However… She remembered that Mo Yuan had told her not to touch Li City University’s system. At that time, she was not interested in Li City University, so she had casually agreed.

Now that she thought about it, why did Mo Yuan disallow her from touching Li City University’s system? Could it be that Mo Yuan was also studying here? It was not impossible. The last time they chatted, was Mo Yuan not in Li City?

In addition, Qiao Xi thought that Mo Yuan should not be too old. It was very likely that Mo Yuan was a student of Li City University. Which department, though? Computer programming?

Her ringing phone interrupted her thoughts. Gu Zheng called to ask her where she was. The chauffeur who sent her to university this morning had something going on and could not come, so he came to pick her up.

This was good too. She could take this opportunity to tell Gu Zheng that she wanted to look up information about Li City University. Qiao Xi put away her phone, put her hands in her pockets, and walked lazily toward the car park.

When she reached the passenger door of the car, Qiao Xi reached out to pull the handle but it did not budge… She could only knock on the window to get the person inside to unlock the car. Just then, the window of the front passenger seat rolled down.

“Sit in the front.”

Gu Zheng’s voice drifted over from the front. Qiao Xi was stunned for a moment. “You’re driving today?”

Thinking about it, this seemed to be the first time she saw Gu Zheng drive the car himself. Previously, he would always sit in the back like a lord. Thinking that she still had something to ask of Gu Zheng today, she very obediently opened the car door and got in. She crossed her legs and placed her hands on her lap. She was full of smiles. “I’m really sorry to have troubled you to come and pick me up.”

Gu Zheng glanced at her casually. “Don’t speak so sarcastically.”

Qiao Xi: “???”

She was finally trying to be polite to him, yet he said she was being sarcastic? Was he crazy?!

Taking a deep breath, Qiao Xi stabilized her emotions that were on the verge of erupting and gnashed her teeth before smiling. “What are you talking about? I’m just thanking you.”

“Thank you? I think you’re burning my bones to ashes.” Gu Zheng snorted. This woman did not even know how to beg. She was so stupid.

Gu Zheng could guess the reason for Qiao Xi’s change in attitude. It was probably because Zhou Guanjin had told her about how to get the information about Li City University. This woman wanted him to give in. Her method of begging… was unacceptable.

Qiao Xi’s gaze changed a few times. She remembered that her teacher had said that men were unable to resist the praise of women, and there was no man who did not like hearing nice words. Hence, she cleared her throat and tried her best to say in the gentlest voice, “Gu Zheng, have you been busy recently? I often see you in Li City University.”

Gu Zheng’s hand that was holding the steering wheel froze.

Qiao Xi said, “Could it be that you’re a director of Li City University? How impressive.”
