Taoist Master and the Cat - Chapter 107

Gu Jialing shook his head listlessly, not wanting to recall the nightmare of that night.

June 1st was Children’s Day.

Of course, that festival had nothing to do with senior high school students, and they were still accompanied by mock test papers falling like snowflakes.

After playing a session of tennis in the morning self-study, Su Miaomiao11miao and Xie Jingyuan went back to the classroom.

As soon as she sat down on the seat, Lin Xi on the left handed over a delicate palm-sized gift box with a bow tied with a white ribbon.

“It’s for you, a gift for Children’s Day,” Lin Xi said with a smile.

Su Miaomiao11miao asked in surprise, “People also get gifts for Children’s Day?”

Lin Xi’s eyes were gentle as he said, “Just kidding, grandma gave it to me this morning. I don’t like chocolate.”

Su Miaomiao11miao opened the package, and there was indeed a small box of chocolate inside.

“Thanks,” Su Miaomiao11miao was very happy, pinched a chocolate bean and put it in her mouth.

Gu Jialing remembered Xu Shou’s speculation, and asked, “Why did you only give it to Su Miaomiao11miao and not us?”

He had a loud voice, and many students in front turned back to watch the play curiously.

Lin Xi’s fair face flushed slightly, and then he explained, “There was only one box.”

Su Miaomiao11miao glared at Gu Jialing, “Why do you want to rob me of everything?”

Gu Jialing: “Who wants to steal it from you? I didn’t talk to you.”

The two of them bickered, unintentionally resolving Lin Xi’s embarrassment.

 “Okay, don’t disturb other students’ studies,” Xie Jingyuan opened his mouth to stop them.

Su Miaomiao11miao and Gu Jialing glanced at each other for the last time, ending the quarrel.

Gu Jialing leaned in front of Xu Shou, covered his mouth with one hand and whispered, “You’re right, Lin Xi is indeed suspicious.”

Xu Shou didn’t bother to talk to him.

On Su Miaomiao11miao’s side, she looked at the chocolate box in her hand, moved closer to Xie Jingyuan, and said quietly, “Taoist Master, why did Lin Xi get gifts for Children’s Day, but I didn’t?”

Xie Jingyuan: “I don’t know.”

He didn’t accept her hint, Su Miaomiao11miao curled her lips and sat upright.

At noon, the group of four went to the small cafeteria for lunch. When they walked out of the cafeteria, the sun was shining.

The weather was hot, so Su Miaomiao11miao wanted to eat ice cream.

The four of them went to the on-campus supermarket diagonally opposite the cafeteria.

The supermarket employees all knew them, and said with a smile, “Want to buy ice cream again? Pick it yourself.”

Su Miaomiao11miao and Gu Jialing took one each.

Just when Gu Jialing was about to close the lid of the freezer, Su Miaomiao11miao’s heart moved, and she reached out to take out the second box.

Gu Jialing: “We agreed to eat one a day, what reason are you taking more?”

Su Miaomiao11miao: “This one is for Lin Xi, he gave me chocolate this morning, and I’ll give him an ice cream in return.”

The Taoist master said that if someone gave her a gift, she had to give a return gift.

Gu Jialing blinked and didn’t object anymore.

Xie Jingyuan was already standing at the cash register, glanced at the ice cream in their hands, and handed out the campus card.

After paying the bill, the four of them left the supermarket and walked toward the teaching building.

While digging for ice cream, Gu Jialing muttered to Xu Shou, “She has never offered us a gift before. Could it be that Lin Xi likes her, and she also likes Lin Xi?”

Xu Shou couldn’t tell.

He could see the minds of some men, but women’s minds were too difficult to fathom.

In his previous life, Xu Shou once witnessed a girl in the village quarreling with a man from another village. The man made the girl cry and wanted to hug her and bully her. Xu Shou rushed over and bit the man, but the girl hugged him and cried. They even beat him with a stick and called him a “smelly dog”…

Although Su Miaomiao11miao was a cat, she was also a female.

Gu Jialing clicked his tongue twice, as he thought Xu Shou knew everything.

Before stepping into the teaching building, Su Miaomiao11miao finished her ice cream and threw the box into the trash can.

Looking at the box that Xie Jingyuan held for her, she suddenly was a little bit reluctant.

Xie Jingyuan noticed the look in her eyes and asked, “Do you still want to eat more?”

Su Miaomiao11miao hesitated.

Xie Jingyuan: “Small gifts given on non-important festivals don’t need to be returned.”

When Su Miaomiao11miao heard it, she immediately grabbed the ice cream, tore open the package, took the spoon, and dug in one go.

Gu Jialing who was walking behind: “…”

If that was also called liking, then the feeling of “liking” was too unreliable!

“Miaomiao11miao, let’s take a picture together!” Su Miaomiao11miao followed Xie Jingyuan to the second floor while eating ice cream, and saw Yu Le, who was in Class 1 of senior high school, standing at the door of Class 9 with a phone in her hand.

The college entrance examination was only a few days away, and it was becoming more common for high school seniors to seize the time to take group pictures with their old classmates.

Su Miaomiao11miao still liked that old classmate who often asked her to go to the restroom together and queued up next to her during the exercise between classes, “Okay, where?”

Yu Le stood by the glass window opposite to the door, “The light here is good, can you help us take a picture, monitor?”

Xie Jingyuan didn’t speak, but took Yu Le’s cell phone.

“I’ll help you hold the ice cream,” Gu Jialing said kindly.

Su Miaomiao11miao was a little skeptical, “Will you steal it?”

Gu Jialing looked disgusted, “I’m not an idiot to eat your saliva.”

Su Miaomiao11miao then handed him the ice cream and threatened, “If you dare to steal it, I’ll pull your hair out!”

Gu Jialing began to regret why he wanted to help.

Yu Le smiled and watched the two of them quarreling. That phenomenon was very common in Class 1 and 9. Unexpectedly, the two of them were still arguing.

“I’ll really miss this,” Yu Le put her arms around Su Miaomiao11miao’s shoulders, and whispered while looking at the phone camera.

Su Miaomiao11miao looked at her, thinking that it might be difficult for everyone to meet again after the college entrance examination, so she lightly rubbed the top of her head on Yu Le’s neck.

Her hair was soft, and the moment she touched it, Yu Le had an inexplicable sense of happiness, as if the upcoming college entrance examination was not so scary, and there was no need to have any pressure.
