Give Me Another Smile

Chapter 32: She Actually Started Dating?!

The two figures jogged past the car Tang Yu hid behind, their faces flushed from exercise.

Tang Yu was a little surprised when she saw the two people as she recognized them. However, while it might not be strange to see Yin Changcheng exercising in the morning, Yin Zhao-an

Since when can she wake up so early?

The gray sky, paired with the foggy weather, created the perfect cover for Tang Yu to go unnoticed. After seeing the two figures disappearing into the fog, Tang Yu slipped out of her hiding spot and fell into thought as she stared at the dense fog.

A few minutes later, the sound of a stomach rumbling brought Tang Yu back from her thoughts.

Blushing, Tang Yu covered her stomach and headed to the nearest breakfast shop.

When Tang Yu arrived at her school, the campus was serene, as if it had yet to wake up from its slumber.

Originally, Tang Yu thought she would be the first to arrive at the classroom, but to her surprise, she saw the silhouette of a person in the classroom.

The unlit classroom was dim, so the other party's silhouette blended in with the darkness.

Tang Yu's heart suddenly seized in pain when she saw this figure, her eyebrows frowning uncomfortably. Immediately, she reached out to the nearby switch, summoning light to drive away the oppressive darkness and reveal everything inside the classroom to her.

The other party was a girl.

The girl jumped when the lights suddenly came on. However, as soon as the girl saw it was Tang Yu, her surprise turned into contempt. She even snorted disdainfully at Tang Yu.

Oh, so we're in the same class again

Tang Yu sat down in her seat, feeling a little helpless.

The school would randomly assign classes to students each year. With there being over a dozen classes in each grade, students were almost certain to meet unfamiliar faces every year. Yet, by some miracle, she was assigned to the same class as her bully.

Though, it should be considered more of a miracle that Tang Yu had only noticed she belonged to the same class as her bully. After all, the school year was already coming to an end soon

"Why isn't that tomboy with you?" the girl's contemptuous voice rang out in the classroom.

Although Tang Yu wasn't keen to defend Yin Zhao-an, she still felt uncomfortable hearing others badmouth Yin Zhao-an. Thus, she said, "She's not."

Screech

The screeching sound of a wooden desk rubbing against the concrete floor entered Tang Yu's ears, causing her to subconsciously cover them. Then, she saw the girl walking toward her with an evil grin.

The girl sat in front of Tang Yu. Then, propping up her chin with her hand, she scrutinized Tang Yu before saying, "You don't look half bad. It's a pity you don't know how to speak."

Tang Yu blushed with shame, her mind inwardly responding, The words "don't know how to speak" can mean several things. Which one are you referring to?

Suddenly, the girl's expression turned ugly, as if having thought of something. Even her gaze had become ruthless.

Before Tang Yu could react, her collar got grabbed, and a grim and threatening voice entered her left ear, saying, "You best not let me catch you outside by yourself. Otherwise, I'll make sure you get it."

After saying so, the girl got up and left.

"What's your name?" Tang Yu suddenly asked.

The girl froze. Then, she turned around and glared at Tang Yu in bewilderment. She had given Tang Yu a hard time so many times now, yet Tang Yu didn't even know her name?!

"Du Yuqing," the girl left behind these words before returning to her seat, not bothering to look at Tang Yu anymore.

Meanwhile, Tang Yu felt as if someone had suddenly poured cold water onto her, a horrible suffocating feeling enveloping her as memories she had desperately tried to forget resurfaced before her eyes.

"Do you think she cares whether you live or die?"

"Look. You're so pathetic. You're like a pet no one wants."

"I'll let you go so long as you leave her."

"She will only be with me."

Tang Yu tightly gripped the edges of her shirt and bit down on her lip, an overwhelming feeling of helplessness assaulting her. She subconsciously looked up in search of something, but apart from herself and Du Yuqing, nobody else was in the classroom.

Tang yu looked down in disappointment. She felt as if someone had just cut off a corner of her heart with a sharp blade, the pain so unbearable she broke out into a cold sweat.

What was she looking for? What else was she expecting?

Yin Zhao-an leisurely walked in silence, pretending to "inadvertently" glance at the person walking next to her, only to end up meeting gazes with the other party. Then, an awkward silence ensued between the two people who were caught sneaking glances at each other.

Yin Zhao-an stopped in her tracks when she arrived at the familiar intersection.

Zhao Yu also stopped with her. However, after quietly waiting in place for a while, he hesitantly asked, "Waiting for Tang Yu?"

"Mhm."

"...Oh."

Silence ensued again.

As time slowly rose into the sky, the other children of the military compound also began making their way to school. When these children walked past the two familiar faces at the intersection, they couldn't help but cast a strange look at the strange combination. Unable to handle the stares, Zhao Yu began counting the pebbles on the ground with a blush on his face.

Sometime later, Zhao Yu looked at his watch and said, "We're going to be late. She should have gone to school already."

Yin Zhao-an frowned in annoyance. She noticed something was strange with Tang Yu yesterday, so she immediately linked Tang Yu's absence to it. Did she do something to upset her Tang-Tang?

"Fine. Let's go, then."

Tang Yu was feeling incredibly uncomfortable. Knowing that she was staying in the same room as Du Yuqing suffocated her. Yet, she couldn't just kick Du Yuqing out, either. With no better choice, Tang Yu fled to the rooftop for fresh air.

The wind on the rooftop was just right. It was warm and gentle, and having it blow at her face felt like having a large and gentle hand soothing her heart.

With nothing better to do, Tang Yu started looking at the young boys and girls walking into the campus, her mind admiring the wonders of youth as she observed their lively behavior. The next second, however, the large hand that was supposed to be soothing her suddenly squeezed down on her fragile heart.

Tang Yu nearly spat out blood when she saw the two people who had just walked through the front gate side by side, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Meanwhile, the first thought that came to her mind after seeing this was: That bastard actually started dating!
