On a rainy night, the school beauty knocked on my door and asked for shelter

Chapter 179
Mutual Respect!

Su Yuqing thanked Zhao Yueyue, took the bottled water, drank a couple of sips, and then looked towards Chen Mo.

"If you care so much, then come over and have a chat," Huang Mao said with a smile, leading the way over.

Su Yuqing was a little reserved, while Zhao Yueyue only had a gossipy look on her face.

The three of them soon came over.

"Have you finished your exams?

" Chen Mo asked Su Yuqing and Zhao Yueyue with a smile.

"Mm.

" Su Yuqing nodded without saying anything more.

Zhao Yueyue then asked, "Who is this beautiful lady?

Brother Mo, aren't you going to introduce her?

"Hearing Zhao Yueyue address Chen Mo, Chu Mengyao looked at her in surprise.

That's what she usually calls Chen Mo.

"Chu Mengyao, my best friend since childhood.

" Chen Mo introduced her with a smile, and then introduced Su Yuqing and Zhao Yueyue to Chu Mengyao.

"Su Yuqing, my good friend, and this is Zhao Yueyue, my daughter," Chen Mo said with a smile.

"Pah!

" Zhao Yueyue immediately retorted, "I'm his great-aunt.

"These two almost always manage to pull off this same routine.

Seeing Zhao Yueyue's reaction, Chu Mengyao couldn't help but laugh.

Chen Mo and Zhao Yueyue are clearly the kind of good friends who enjoy teasing each other.

However, it's also clear that there's no romantic feeling between the two.

Chu Mengyao felt an immediate sense of familiarity with this relationship.

Because that's similar to how she felt when she was with Chen Mo before.

When the two get along, there is no barrier between opposite sexes; they mostly tease each other.

This is also why it becomes increasingly difficult for the two of them to develop romantic feelings for each other.

Especially when one party is interested, but the other is not.

This makes it even more difficult for the relationship to progress further.

"Yaoyao, you just said you wanted to treat me to a meal since we haven't seen each other in a long time.

If you're free later, let's go for afternoon tea," Chen Mo said with a smile, looking at the people around him.

"Sure, it's rare for me to get a meal off you.

I'll cover the meal you owe my mom for her," Chu Mengyao said with a smile.

"Why do you still owe someone's mother a meal?

" Zhao Yueyue asked curiously.

"I went to Yuqing's mom's shop to buy clothes with her before, and her mom gave me a big discount, so I owe her a favor," Chen Mo said nonchalantly.

Hearing Chen Mo say this, Su Yuqing suddenly recalled the time she bought clothes with Chen Mo.

She had only gone out to buy clothes with Chen Mo once, and that time they went to the house of an aunt that Chen Mo knew well.

Upon closer reflection, Su Yuqing realized that Chu Mengyao in front of her did indeed bear some resemblance to the aunt she had seen that day.

It turns out that the girl was that aunt's daughter.

Su Yuqing instantly felt even less able to compare with her.

That aunt has an excellent eye for beauty.

If she had specifically helped Chu Mengyao with her appearance, she would definitely be several times more beautiful than she is now.

Chu Mengyao's current style is rather androgynous, concealing some of her feminine allure.

But even with Su Yuqing's discerning eye, she could still see that Su Yuqing's foundation was quite extraordinary.

If she were allowed to unleash her feminine charm, it would be hard to say whether she could win Chen Mo's heart.

Instantly, Su Yuqing felt an even greater sense of crisis.

Su Yuqing thought this way, and Chu Mengyao felt the same way.

Su Yuqing, dressed in her school uniform with minimal makeup, is already so beautiful naturally.

If she were allowed to dress up, she would look absolutely stunning.

With her looks and charisma, she could easily debut as a celebrity.

As the two looked at each other, praising one another and belittling themselves, the three people around them also noticed the eye contact between them.

Huang Mao wore an expression of watching a good show, while Zhao Yueyue looked at Chen Mo with great interest, wondering what he would do.

Chen Mo didn't seem to care about the atmosphere between the two.

He stood up and said, "Let's go tell the teacher first.

"Basically, whoever finishes the exam first can leave first.

If you need to take the school bus back, then wait for everyone to leave together.

If you don't need it, just let the teacher know in advance, so that the teacher won't have to wait for you when taking attendance later.

While searching for their teacher, Zhou Hao and Lin Yu'an had already finished their exams.

Chen Mo greeted the two of them: "We have a physical education exam today, so evening self-study is canceled.

Let's go out for a meal and relax.

"Zhou Hao was about to agree, but when he thought of Qu Danwan, he hesitated.

Chen Mo immediately understood and said, "Ask your girlfriend if she's coming.

It would be better if she came with you; the more the merrier.

"Upon hearing this, he quickly pulled Chen Mo aside and whispered, "We're not officially dating yet.

She's shy, so don't say anything in front of others.

If she ignores me, you'll be held fully responsible.

"Chen Mo chuckled and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Alright, alright, what should I call you later?

""Let's call her Danwan or something like that," Zhou Hao said after thinking for a moment.

"Whatever you say, just go and talk to her and see if she wants to come," Chen Mo replied with a smile.

"Okay.

" Zhou Hao immediately ran off happily.

Hanging out with a great friend like Chen Mo was actually a plus for Zhou Hao, in his opinion.

Let Qu Danwan know that she doesn't only have bad friends, but also has normal good friends.

This can also make the other person have a better impression of you.

Therefore, Zhou Hao was quite happy to bring Qu Danwan along when he went out to eat with Chen Mo.

Moreover, among so many friends, only a very few true friends like Chen Mo know that he is not a bad person at heart.

Soon, Chen Mo and the others told He Xiaoyun that they were leaving early.

The teacher didn't stop them, but just reminded them to be careful on the way.

Zhou Hao didn't have to spend much time inviting Qu Danwan.

Although she was a little shy, she was also curious about Zhou Hao's social circle and wanted to learn more about it.

After all, this was the first time she had ever liked someone, and Qu Danwan still harbored her own unspoken fears.

On the surface, based on her understanding of Zhou Hao, he didn't seem like a bad person, nor did he seem like a guy who wasn't worth entrusting your life to.

But in reality, Qu Danwan had little knowledge of what had happened.

It was the first time she had fallen for someone, the first time she had the urge to commit to a relationship and see it through to the end.

For a girl like Qu Danwan, once she gives her heart, she gives her all.

If that heart is misplaced, it would be an unbearable blow for her.

So even though she was confident she wouldn't misjudge someone, she still felt a little scared, afraid that there was even a slight possibility of making the wrong friends.

In addition, her father hated those thugs, because he had been harassed by them a lot when he was setting up his stall.

Therefore, he has a deep-seated aversion to people who might be street thugs.

She hoped that Zhou Hao would have a respectable social circle that she could explain to her father.
