Chapter 315 — That's Hardly Sincere of You
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"What's wrong?" Zhong Yongliang handed the carving knife to Gao Xiaofu. "Is there a problem?"
"N-no..." Gao Xiaofu had no choice but to take the knife, gritted his teeth, and cut open his own index finger. Blood came surging out at once, but there was no repeat of Zhong Yongliang's "bloodbath" from the day before.
"All right, Xiaofu, hold still - I'm going to use your finger to write a blood letter!" Zhong Yongliang said, seizing Gao Xiaofu's finger and beginning to write on the blank sheet of paper before him...
Little did he know, this scene had not gone unnoticed.
Not far away, Shen Yushu held up her phone and zoomed the camera all the way in, just close enough to see clearly what Zhong Yongliang and Gao Xiaofu were doing.
"Sister Yaoyao, this Zhong Yongliang really is something, isn't he? Using Gao Xiaofu's finger to write you a blood letter - that has to be the most insincere thing I've ever seen!" Shen Yushu said with a grin.
"Whose finger he uses is none of my business." Gu Mengyao paid her no attention and kept her eyes fixed on her book.
"Aww, how boring..." Shen Yushu put her phone away with a hint of regret. "I was hoping to watch Zhong Yongliang's finger turn into a water gun one more time!"
"..." Gu Mengyao was quite lost for words. What was so entertaining about that? Are you afraid Zhong Yongliang won't die fast enough?
Gu Mengyao frowned. She did not so much as glance in Zhong Yongliang's direction and ignored him completely.
But Shen Yushu, beaming from ear to ear, sprang to her feet and snatched the blood letter from Zhong Yongliang's hands: "Let me inspect it first - see if there are any problems?"
"Sure, sure!" Zhong Yongliang was overjoyed that Shen Yushu was willing to help. If he could get pointers from Shen Yushu, Gu Mengyao's best friend, then surely winning Gu Mengyao over was only a matter of days?
"Hmm..." Shen Yushu opened the blood letter and read it over. In truth, she had no real interest in the letter itself - she didn't have time for some worthless, styleless piece of rubbish like this. What she actually had in mind was a much better game.
"Well?" Zhong Yongliang gazed at Shen Yushu with hopeful anticipation, waiting for her verdict.
"Hey, why doesn't it have a signature? Who's going to know who wrote it if it doesn't?" Shen Yushu's eyes darted about, and she had finally found her opening.
"A signature?" Zhong Yongliang blinked in surprise. "This is my own blood letter - why would I need to sign it?"
"Obviously you would! Not signing it makes you look completely insincere!" Shen Yushu declared with a straight face. "Your love letter doesn't even have a signature - it's not the least bit formal. No wonder you've been chasing Sister Yaoyao all this time and still haven't won her over..."
At this, Shen Yushu pursed her lips and pulled a face of utter disdain.
Zhong Yongliang flew into a panic: "Is that so? Then I'll go back and add one - I'll add it right now!"
