Chapter 164 - Beetroot Love
Chapter 164 – Beetroot Love
"I have seen him missing his first love since the day I woke up in this body. At that time, we were more like enemies. Do you think he had bipolar disorder that would make him love and hate the same person? Moreover, don't forget how I looked back in those days," Yu Mei stood up from the chair and walked towards the couch in the living room before slumping on it as she placed her legs on the coffee table.
Shi Luo sat beside the woman, "First of all, how you looked has nothing to do with all these. Especially when the man is Jun Zixuan. I don't think your looks have ever been a barrier between you both."
"Yes, he has always doted on me like this," Yu Mei sighed dreamily as she smiled, "He is an angel indeed. So cute and so nice."
Shi Luo's lips twitched. What exactly is your point here? One moment, you are anxious about who he loves and in the next moment, you are all about how nice he is.
'Angel and Jun Zixuan?' Shi Luo pursed her lips. These two terms were like East and West which will never coincide.
"Let's forget about his love or his feelings," She said, after thinking for some time, "What about you? How long are you going to deny your feelings?"
Yu Mei paused.
"Mei, past is past. What happened when were teenagers shouldn't be something that will hold you back right now. Do you get what I'm saying?"
Yu Mei nodded wordlessly.
Shi Luo sighed as she spoke up, "While we are talking about Jun Zixuan and you, do you realize that you've always had feelings for him? Even as Han Mei, you had feelings for him."
"On what basis are you saying that?" She raised an eyebrow, "We were just friends back then."
"I can bet my medical degree on the fact that he did not see you as a friend," Shi Luo countered.
"We never kissed. We were never intimate. So, he did see me as a friend. You should go burn your degree."
Shi Luo laughed, "Remember when you said that you both are friends and I had said that there will be a day when you both will roll in the bed?" Yu Mei was speechless while she continued, "It has come true. No matter what you say, that man never had friendly intentions towards you, be it in the past life or your current life."
"Nonsense,'' Yu Mei waved her hand.
But that didn't discourage Shi Luo, "As for you…I don't know whether you were in love with him or not but he has always been special to you. You might not see that but we all could. And at this moment, your feelings for him are like beetroot."
"B-Beetroot?"
Shi Luo nodded, "No matter how carefully you cut it while cooking, it will leave a pinkish tint on your palms which will be visible to everyone. Your feelings for him right now are visible to everyone around you."

…
The next day.
Outside the Dean's office:
"What are you doing here?" Li Shuang coldly glanced at the woman standing in front of her.
The woman took off her large shades as her dark red painted lips slightly curled up, "Just out on a trip and here to meet my fiancé. Heard that he has been hovering around a woman lately."
Li Shuang frowned looking at the woman face's which was buried under layers of makeup. As beautiful as that might appear to people, for some reason, to her, those layers of makeup and charming smile have always been ugly, "With a fiancée like you, which man wouldn't go around finding other women?"
The woman didn't seem to be offended by her words as she smiled confidently, "We never got the chance to cultivate feelings. Now that I'm here, he will automatically get his mind off other women and put his focus on me."
'This woman still has that Princess Syndrome,' Although she thought that, Li Shuang's cold expressions did not reveal a single thought of hers.
"Why don't you come with me? I'll introduce you to my future husband," She said, adjusting the short sleeves of her red bodycon dress.
"I had Chinese exams today. I'm tired so I'll go to the dorm and take a rest," Li Shuang spoke in an aloof tone, "You can go and catch up with your fiancé," Li Shuang turned around and left as soon as she finished speaking.
The woman simply rolled her eyes and walked out of the corridor, her straight posture, confident steps, and beautiful looks gave off a superstar aura getting everyone's attention.
In a classroom.
Yu Mei slumped on her desk as soon as the Professor collected her answer sheets. It was the day of her Chinese exam…The Chinese exam has been haunting her since her past life.
But she did not even remember it.
It was only in the morning when she went to Li Shuang's room to talk to her and saw her holding the Chinese book, revising the questions did she remember that today was the Chinese exam. Her feelings at that moment were indescribable.
Who was to blame for this? It was none other than the man named Jun Zixuan who had claimed all her thoughts and attention for himself, not leaving a gap for her to think about anything else.
From the moment she came back from Shi Luo's place, she had been on her bed, thinking about him, his lips, his smile, his words, his…okay his everything. Everything related to him has dominated all her mind and heart.
All this while, Mia was on her cultivation mode. If she was awake, she would have reminded her about her exams but alas…
So, in the end, she did not remember what kind of answers she had written in the answer sheet because even during the exam, she was still thinking about him.
She was not sure whether she would pass or fail.
Not that she cared about her marks, but in the future, if her identity is revealed to the world, it might make it to the headlines.
'The President of Rosette, Leanne had failed in Chinese subject during her Senior year final exams.'
She pursed her lips. That would be too detrimental for the image of her company.
