Chapter 66: This Woman Definitely Had a Problem
Lin Mo, who had been experiencing immersive reading, was suddenly interrupted. He felt a little unhappy in his heart. Who was it that had no sense of boundaries?
When he raised his head, he discovered that a familiar face was sitting across from him. She was dressed in a black long dress, her hair fell in graceful waves down her back, and her face was delicately made up. She was smiling at him, her eyes carrying a hint of surprise. With the sunlight shining on her face, it was as if a filter had been added. It was Zhao Tingting from Class One, Wang Chu’s goddess.
Lin Mo glanced around and saw that he was the only one there. Only then did he confirm that she was talking to him.
“Mm.” Lin Mo whispered, then lowered his head again to continue reading.
This was the library. Chatting here truly was inappropriate. Moreover, he was not in the mood to chit-chat with her. He was waiting to try his new skill on Sichuan Girl today. If he waited too long, she might recover.
By then, where could he find such a good little lab rat? He couldn’t just walk on the street and straighten someone’s bones at random, right?
After all, if one learned a skill but never showed off, how was that any different from not learning it at all?
Seeing Lin Mo’s indifferent expression, Zhao Tingting narrowed her eyes. Only she herself knew that today’s encounter was not a coincidence at all, but deliberately arranged by her.
From her clothes to her makeup, even the stray strand of hair stuck to her face and the angle of the sunlight—everything was deliberately calculated.
As for how she knew Lin Mo was here—well, wasn’t there still Wang Bo? After adding her on WeChat, he would often chat about random things. She only needed to drop a few hints, and he would reveal his dorm situation on his own.
For the past three years, she had never noticed that her major still had such a promising stock. Fortunately, it was not too late. She was still confident in herself.
“You’re reading... a medical book?” Zhao Tingting whispered in surprise. To avoid disturbing others, she even leaned her head closer, shrinking the distance between them.
At this, Lin Mo slightly frowned and leaned back. He had no particular thoughts about Zhao Tingting, but he didn’t dislike her either. It was simply because they were not familiar.
Even though, through Wang Chu, he knew she had dated several boyfriends with good conditions in the past three years, he would not dislike her for that.
After all, what kind of boyfriend someone chose was their own business. One couldn’t call her a gold-digger just because her boyfriends had good conditions.
But he didn’t know why—he always felt as though this woman was wearing a mask. Simply put, she was a bit too deliberate.
Her behavior looked normal enough, but she gave him a sense of purpose, lacking sincerity. He couldn’t describe it clearly.
But he knew—if it were Miss Yuan, she would just say whatever came to mind without beating around the bush.
If it were Emperor Rushuang leaning in suddenly, then she would definitely just be teasing him, with no other purpose.
In contrast, Zhao Tingting was harder to figure out. In the end, Lin Mo attributed his discomfort to possibly having preconceived notions because of Wang Chu.
After all, most guys would consciously keep their distance from the women their friends liked. Only a few scumbags were exceptions.
“Mm, just browsing. Do you need something?” Lin Mo whispered.
At this point, even if he wanted to keep reading, his efficiency would surely drop.
“No, nothing. Oh right, I haven’t congratulated our handsome guy for being posted on the campus forum yet. Looks like I won’t need to introduce you to a girlfriend anymore.” Zhao Tingting tucked her hair back with a smile.
Lin Mo’s expression did not change: “The introduction thing was just a joke. No need to take it seriously. As for the forum, I saw it, but I didn’t care.”
“I see. Oh, by the way, it’s my birthday today. Tonight, why don’t you and your roommates come have dinner together? It’ll be lively. Your roommate Wang Bo already agreed!” Zhao Tingting invited.
As she spoke, she pulled out her phone and showed him her chat with Wang Chu. Sure enough, Wang Chu had immediately agreed to his goddess without hesitation and even sent five dog-head emojis.
Seeing this, Lin Mo thought for a moment before saying: “I want to finish this book today, so I might be a little late...”
Before he could finish, Zhao Tingting acted as if she didn’t catch the refusal hidden in his words and said: “It’s fine, you’ll make it. Seven-thirty tonight. I’ll send you the location. Then it’s settled. I’ll go first.”
After saying that, she smiled at him and then stood up and left.
Lin Mo felt baffled. It had been three years of college, and they weren’t even in the same class. They had only exchanged a couple of words in total. They had just added each other on WeChat, and now she was inviting him to her birthday?
And Wang Chu just directly agreed. Lin Mo couldn’t openly refuse, but when he tried to decline tactfully, she didn’t get it. Was it that he didn’t express himself clearly?
At this moment, his phone on the desk started exploding with messages. Luckily, it was on silent.
【Old Mo, come downstairs now】
【I see you, hurry, urgent】
【Quick, waiting for you】
Seeing it was from Wang Chu, Lin Mo looked around. Sure enough, in the hallway outside the door, two figures were waving at him.
He put down his book and went out.
As soon as he stepped out, they pulled him downstairs.
“Damn, so this is why you keep running to the library every day, huh? Secretly meeting my goddess?”
That was the first thing Wang Chu said.
“Get lost. If I wanted to meet her, why would I sneak around? You two aren’t even together. I just ran into her. She invited our dorm to her birthday tonight. You agreed?”
Hearing this, Wang Chu looked a little guilty, but his face was full of joy: “Right, that’s what I thought! My goddess couldn’t possibly be the type to mess around.”
“Of course I’ll go! She invited me personally. What should I get her as a gift?”
Lin Mo slapped his forehead. This guy was acting more and more like a simp.
Beside them, Sichuan Girl snorted in disdain: “What’s there to be happy about? You’re not even close. She was just being polite, and you really agreed? Why don’t you two go then? I won’t go. She didn’t message me, nor did she invite me in person. I don’t like those kinds of occasions.”
“Don’t, we’re a trio! If you don’t go, Old Mo and I will be so awkward.” Wang Chu quickly tried to persuade her.
Sichuan Girl sneered: “Are you really that dumb, or just pretending?”
“What do you mean?” Wang Chu looked confused.
Sichuan Girl: “Haven’t you read the old Romance of the Three Kingdoms? Lord Guan once said a line: This woman definitely has a problem!”
“A problem? What problem could my goddess possibly have?”
Lin Mo raised his hand slowly: “Uh... I think I know.”
“What?” Wang Chu asked.
Lin Mo didn’t want to spell it out, but he agreed with Sichuan Girl’s judgment.
“The answer is right below the English translation of that line. You can search it yourself on Douyin.”
Wang Chu hurriedly searched it. The result made his vision go dark.
Guan Yu: “Then this woman definitely has a problem.”
Translation: “She 100% is a sao B.”
