Chapter 3 - The Gossip
Welcome back for another chapter. Enjoy and happy reading.
WANG YIBO POV
It's already 11 a.m. and my butt is itching from boredom. I am just sitting in our classroom and patiently waiting for the professor to arrive.
My focus is not on the two previous lessons I attended. I am thinking why that guy with beautiful eyes under his specs did not come today. His loose white T-shirt and black ripped jeans look good to him paired with white Gucci shoes.
Earlier during our break time inside the nearest cafe from the campus, we are enjoying our drinks when suddenly Sungyeun talk seriously.
“Hey bro, what's bothering you?” Sungyeun asked.
Sungyeun is more expressive and sensible. But he won't stop asking until he knows the truth. Since high school, we'd been together and shared our good and bad times. And when it comes to serious matters, he is protective and attentive.
“.........”. Yibo just looks at him without a word.
“Guys, come closer here,” Sungyeun calls their attention.
Gou Cheng, Fan Xing, and Pie Xin gathered together in the round. Their ears are ready to listen as if he is the best gossip provider in town.
“Do you know the guy in that group who is wearing glasses that made our friend grumpy face because he is not present today?” he started a question without pause.
“Spill the beans already, bastard!” Gou Cheng interrupted who received a slap to his head from Pie Xin.
“Stop interrupting, idiot!” Sungyeun is now irritated.
Fan Xing on the other side is just quiet but excited to listen. He is the most behave in the group.
My friends can't start a good talk without bickering first so I just sigh and wait until Sungyeun speaks again.
“Last Friday, I went on a date.” He winked at Gou Cheng who suddenly sip drinking vinegar out of a latte.
“I'm not your boyfriend yet so why the sour face?” he teased more.
“Eehmmm!” Pie Xin cough.
Sungyeun always makes fun of Gou Cheng because of his being short-tempered. But this time, he is flirting with him already and Gou Cheng is not dumb not to notice this.
“Just cut the crap and talk your deal man!” Gou Cheng is losing his patience.
“Just kidding. Ok, listen. I and my family went to an expensive and prestigious restaurant in one of the luxurious hotels in Beijing.” Sungyeun continues while grinning.
All of us are super rich kids and it's not a new thing to them. He is just adding spice to his words and wanted to irritate our friend more by saying extra non-sense talk. Gou Cheng bites his lower lips and pops out his bulging eyes towards Sungyeun.
“After our dinner, as we reach the lobby, my dad thought our car is waiting there already but we are wrong. Suddenly there are about five black cars and a grand limousine waiting outside. And few seconds, a tall and slender guy without a spec, in his grey suit walked out from the VIP lift with maybe ten bodyguards in suits. And I think my jaw drop trying to recognize where did I saw this man. Until he rides in the limousine and motion his hand to his bodyguards to get inside their cars and leave. I think I saw him before but I am not sure exactly where and my mind is going to blow when suddenly that guy popped out in my mind.” Sungyeun excitedly narrates without breathing.
Pie Xin, Gou Cheng, and Fan Xing laughed to their stomach in unison. While I just furrowed and smile imagining the guy in that attire makes my heart beats fast a bit. My curiosity rises while my friends keep laughing.
“That nerdy guy in his baggy shirt in Tesla ride? Bro, you should be wearing glasses too.” Gou Cheng still not finish in his laugh.
“Yeah, so that I can see clearly how bad your eyesight too.” He replied in a sad tone with a serious face.
“Stop laughing guys, you are melting the heart of the iceberg here.” teased Pie Xin who is studying my reaction while his hands over Fan Xing's shoulder.
“And his name is Sean Zhan.” my friends made an O shape in their mouth except for me.
Sean Zhan. So that is his name. My friends are aware that I like that guy so they tried their ways to know some information about Sean Zhan and his friends.
I learned his friend's name too from Sungyeun. This friend of mine is quite sneaky. Perhaps he knows that I want to know them but I just can't get closer to them or know them personally. My friends are aware that I'm in a fixed marriage. That's the sad truth.
The guy who always holds his fan even during the winter season is Nie Huaisang. And the serious face who always ready to fight anytime is Jiang Cheng and Wen Qing, the only girl in the circle. I smiled in my thoughts but feeling disappointed to remember that I am marrying a different person.
This is my last class to attend today. Suddenly my phone vibrated. I checked the screen and saw the message from my brother.
Kuan-ge: "Visit me at my office after your class tomorrow. See you later."
I didn't reply. I opened the message box so it will mark as read. My brother understood already that I have no objection to his request.
This afternoon we will be having a group study so I can't go home early and I feel the day is like forever for the sun to set. I want to see the sun rising again. I want to see that face as I walk to the campus aisle. Damn! I am feeling crazy with my thoughts.
I am in deep thoughts about Sungyeun's discovery. I am trying to figure it out. If he is telling the truth or just making up a story to make fun with me or to kill the boredom. How I wish I was in the position of Sungyeun so I can see in my naked eye how he looks like in his suit attire if he is real.
“Good morning class!”, the professor enter the classroom.
