The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise

Xu Wei hung up the call.

Lu Yumo opened his WeChat, and his eyes widened in shock when he saw the message that Fu Zhi had “accidentally” sent.

He then sent a message back to her. “What the hell are you doing?”

After about six seconds, Fu Zhi replied, “Breathing.”

She typed very fast. Before Lu Yumo could reply, she responded to his previous message and rejected his invitation to go out by saying, “You’re going to have your legs amputated, so I guess you shouldn’t run around so much.”

Lu Yumo was speechless.

Fu Zhi had totally wrested his words out of their original meaning. His face turned red. Just as he was about to say something, Fu Zhi saw the word “typing…” on the WeChat interface and interjected. “I’m sorry, but my phone is left with 100% battery health, so I have to go now.”

Lu Yumo was left speechless once more.

Truth be told, Shen Cizhou had told Fu Zhi everything. Lu Yumo was not lying. Zhou Tingting had asked the school’s security guard to get the access card for her after Lu Yumo had left.

Fu Zhi was free, but she did not want to talk to Lu Yumo anymore.

Lu Yumo tossed and turned on the bed the entire night. The next day at school, he purposely bought a mango milkshake and went to Class 21.

Lu Yumo had inherited Xu Wei and Lu Jingqing’s good looks. He was handsome, so he was Prince Charming for many girls at his school. The moment he arrived at Class 21, many people turned around and looked at him.

He scanned the classroom and finally found Fu Zhi sitting on a chair and playing with her phone. A strange expression dawned on his face.

Tian Nuo saw Lu Yumo as well. She waved at him and walked up to him. “There’s something going on in Tingting’s house, so she didn’t come to school today.”

“Ah, thanks for letting me know,” Lu Yumo answered absentmindedly.

Tian Nuo felt a little awkward when she saw Lu Yumo’s apathetic reaction, but she soon brushed it aside when she saw the disappointment on his face. She figured that it must be because he loved Zhou Tingting so deeply that he could not be separated from her even for a moment. Therefore, he felt lonely when he was told that Zhou Tingting had not come to school today. Tian Nuo had no idea why, but there was a surge of pride in her heart when she saw how much Lu Yumo loved her best friend.

The corners of her lips curled up, and she returned to her seat. As she passed by Fu Zhi’s desk, she purposely turned her head to look at Lu Yumo and said, “Oh yeah. Tingting said she loves the dress you gave her last time.”

Then, she looked at Fu Zhi out of the corner of her eyes, hoping to see some change in her face.

However, she was destined to be disappointed. Fu Zhi was not paying attention to her at all, as she was immersed deeply in her game.

Holding the mango milkshake in his hand, Lu Yumo approached Fu Zhi.

Tian Nuo noticed what Lu Yumo was doing. She leaned toward the friend sitting next to her and whispered, “Tsk… Lu Yumo bought that milkshake for Tingting. Just because Tingting didn’t come to school today, he’s giving it to Fu Zhi? Why is Fu Zhi always taking advantage of Tingting?”

The mango milkshake was Zhou Tingting’s favorite drink. That was why Tian Nuo had said that.

The girl sitting next to her glanced at Fu Zhi meaningfully.

However, the truth was that Lu Yumo had just bought the most expensive drink in that shop.

He knocked on Fu Zhi’s desk, and once she took her headphones off, he frowned and said, “You should stop playing games and work more on your homework. Here, this is for you.”

“I don’t like mango.”

“I purposely climbed over the wall to buy it for you. I don’t care if you like it or not. You have to drink it!”

Fu Zhi leaned against the chair and replied, “I don’t like it and I won’t drink it.”

Lu Yumo pressed his lips firmly. He ignored what Fu Zhi had just said and gripped tightly the cup, insisting that she take the mango milkshake.

Fu Zhi rubbed her temples and took the mango milkshake. She put the milkshake on her desk and said softly, “You’re turning 18 years old this year, and since you’ve stayed in the same grade for another year, I’m sure you’ve become more mature. You should act more like your age and stop always making mommy worry about you.”

Lu Yumo, who had failed to move to the next grade, was speechless.
