117: I See That Your Little Girlfriend Came to Find You

I See That Your Little Girlfriend Came to Find You

"I see that your little girlfriend came to find you." Meng Xu looked at him meaningfully. "Go accompany her. You can have the rest of the night off."2

Chi Jiao's dejected face had been lingering in Quan Jue's mind. He couldn't help but be stunned by what he heard.

"Look, that young lady is still waiting for you outside." Meng Xu pointed at the computer screen on the desk not far away.

On it was different scenes of the bar and surveillance footage from outside.

A young girl in a white down jacket was walking back and forth outside the bar, kicking stones in boredom.

Her ponytail swayed back and forth with her action, making her look adorable.

As Quan Jue looked at Chi Jiao in the surveillance video, his lips curled up unconsciously.

"Go on. From tomorrow onwards, you can postpone the start of your shift for an hour." Meng Xu recalled that Quan Jue was a student and was using his time out of school to work.

This reminded him of the time when he was still a student. Because his family was too poor, he had to work while attending school in the beginning. But later on, his grades plummeted, and he was forced to drop out.

"Thank you." Quan Jue spat out the words with difficulty.

He hadn't said those words in a long time.

"I heard from Manman that you're great with your studies and are a straight-A student. You'll become a pillar of the country in the future." Meng Xu grinned and said, "Just don't forget about me when you become successful."

Quan Jue burst into laughter and nodded before turning to leave.

As he looked at Quan Jue's back view, a profound look appeared in Meng Xu's eyes.

He really felt that the youth looked a lot like someone.

Only people who were related by blood could possibly look so similar, right?

…

When Quan Jue came out of the studio, Jian Manman, who had been waiting outside, went forward and stood in front of him.

"Quan Jue, I have something to ask you." The narrow corridor could only accommodate one person. Jian Manman blocked Quan Jue's path and looked at him with her beautiful phoenix-like eyes.

Quan Jue looked at her nonchalantly and waited for her to continue.

Jian Manman gathered her emotions and seemed to have finally made up her mind. She asked, "Quan Jue, I heard that you gave up the chance to enroll in Country M's Ying Qiao University?"

Ying Qiao University was a world-famous academy. Many people had wrecked their brains trying to get in, but Quan Jue had rejected such a good opportunity.

Jian Manman felt very uncomfortable about this.

She liked Quan Jue. She couldn't stand by and watch him give up a bright future just like that.

"Does this have anything to do with you?" Quan Jue's tone was so cold that it seemed like it could form ice.

Jian Manman was stunned for a moment before blushing furiously.

How could this matter have nothing to do with her?

There were a total of two guaranteed spots this year.

At that time, she thought that Quan Jue would enroll in Ying Qiao University. Therefore, she had especially asked her family to help her. In addition, her qualities were outstanding. Thus, she had also obtained a guaranteed spot.

But in the end, he refused to go. So, what was she supposed to do now?

When Quan Jue thought of the girl waiting outside, he became even more impatient.

"Move aside," Quan Jue said coldly.

Jian Manman did not move aside. Instead, she took a step forward.

As she stared at him with her phoenix-like eyes, they finally became sharper and fiercer.

"Quan Jue, you gave up on the spot because of the girl who came to find you today, right?" Jian Manman asked.

She was just testing him.

In her eyes, Quan Jue was disciplined and smart. No matter what happened, he would maintain an absolutely calm mind. He wouldn't give up his bright future for a girl.
