Chapter 125: Acting Rashly

Shen Ci told Su Jinnian that the matter of borrowing money was postponed, not because he suddenly found some plans immature.

It was because of Meng Chuyue.

He feared he and Su Jinnian might become romantic rivals over Meng Chuyue.

He didn't want to feel awkward competing with him due to the debt and the favor owed.

But how could he not compete?

...

Shen Ci stayed at Su Jinnian's place for nearly an hour, then returned home in a lackluster mood.

After a groggy sleep, he woke up to find it was already past two in the afternoon. Eating two oranges that Meng Chuyue had brought over, he sighed and took out his twelfth-grade textbooks.

He, too, decided to continue studying.

Not because studying was that beneficial, but because he wanted... to be worthy of pursuing her.

...

Meng Chuyue timed her arrival precisely.

At seven fifty, she drove to the entrance of Phoenix District, carrying two bags of items for Shen Ci, and slowly made her way to the third floor.
