Chapter 1332: The Mermaid Princess (31)

Ever since his last failed confession, Qiao Chen had stopped deliberately approaching Tang Guo.

However, he still occasionally appeared within her line of sight.

He would only stand far away, gazing at her with eyes full of deep affection, never daring to come close.

As a result, the entire school came to know of Qiao Chen's infatuation with A Guoguo.

And because Yin Yao had publicly beaten him up, everyone assumed that both Qiao Chen and Yin Yao had fallen for A Guoguo.

In the end, it seemed that Yin Yao had emerged victorious.

Every day after school, they would see Yin Yao standing outside Class Two of the first year, waiting for A Guoguo to come out.

What terrified everyone even more was that he always held two ice creams in his hand.

At first, everyone assumed that each of them ate one.

Later, someone accidentally saw them leaving together on bicycles and discovered the truth.

Both ice creams belonged to A Guoguo.

While she ate the first one, the second one was actually being held by Yin Yao.

Only after she finished the first would she take the second from his hand.

So...

Were Yin Yao and A Guoguo dating?

Many girls sympathized with Qiao Chen's unrequited love and hoped that he could forget A Guoguo and be together with the beautiful, generous, and devoted Fuya instead.

Even knowing that Qiao Chen was hopelessly infatuated with Tang Guo, Fuya had never changed her feelings for him.

Every day after school, she waited for him and accompanied him home.

Every morning, she would stand outside the Qiao residence early and go to school with him.

Whenever Qiao Chen got injured during gym class, Fuya was always the first to arrive.

Whenever he missed lunch, she would immediately bring him food.

No matter what happened to Qiao Chen, Fuya would always appear by his side at once.

The whole school believed that one day, Fuya would finally win Qiao Chen's heart, and that he would forget A Guoguo and live happily with Fuya.

"Aren't you following Qiao Chen every day? Why do you have time to come here today?" Tang Guo asked curiously when she saw Fuya enter.

She truly hadn't expected Fuya to be so deeply devoted to that scumbag Qiao Chen.

No wonder, in the previous life, she had revealed such an important weakness of the merfolk race to him.

This was a classic love-brained fool—someone willing to bare her heart and soul for the person she loved, even to the point of hurting herself and harming others.

If Qiao Chen's life were in danger, Fuya would probably be willing to exchange her own life for his without a single complaint.

"Qiao Chen went to his father's company today, so it wouldn't be appropriate for me to follow him." Fuya smiled happily. "He's really amazing. Recently, he's proposed many useful plans and new ideas for the company, and his father values him greatly. He's preparing to study while gradually taking over the business."

System: Of course he is. He's a reborn old man who's already lived more than ninety years. With that much life experience, coming up with a few plans isn't difficult at all, girl.

"So why did you come here?"

"I came to see you, A Guoguo. Ever since we came to the human world, we haven't had a proper chat."

Fuya said earnestly, "A Guoguo, I feel like we've become distant. In the past, you always shared lots of interesting things with me."

"But we're at school together every day. If I know something, then you know it too."

"Alright, let's not talk about that. Actually, I came because I wanted to share something happy with you."

Fuya's face lit up with an innocent smile.

"A Guoguo, do you know? I feel like Qiao Chen's attitude toward me has become a little different."
