Forced into a romantic relationship

Chapter 440 Why don’t you laugh?
"What? Everyone has signed up? You must be kidding!"

"No, no, no, Senior Sister Xia Qing, I really don't mean to blame you, but why didn't you inform me earlier about such a big thing?"

"Oh, I've been notified. I was the one who hung up the phone. It's okay then."

"By the way, Senior Xia Qing, do you think it's too late for me to withdraw from the competition now? After all, I'm still injured... Can Guzheng withdraw from the competition?"

"..."

When Han Zhou called Xia Qing back and learned from her that everyone had signed up for tomorrow's fun events, he suddenly felt like the sky was falling. Especially when he heard Mo Yixia's name, his eyes went dark and he quickly applied to withdraw from the competition.

He has to withdraw from the competition. Putting Yixia and Guzheng together, isn't this forcing him to choose one of the two?

"I'm not withdrawing from the competition. If you want to withdraw, do it yourself!"

When she heard that Han Zhou wanted to withdraw from the competition with her, Gu Zheng beside her immediately became unhappy, "You didn't ask for my consent when you signed me up, and now don't even think about withdrawing me from the competition without my consent!"

She originally had little interest in tomorrow's competition, but when she heard that Mo Yixia was also going to participate, her eyes suddenly lit up and her fighting spirit soared. She wished the competition could start right away so that she could beat that guy once and for all. How could she just withdraw from the competition like that?
Humph, if anyone should withdraw from the competition, it should be that guy, otherwise it would seem like I’m afraid of her.

Gu Zheng was full of confidence, with a smile on her face, as if she had seen someone kneeling down and begging for mercy. She would not miss such a good opportunity.

As for what kind of competition it was, Gu Zheng didn't care. As long as it was related to sports, even if it was not that competitive, she was confident that she could easily beat Mo Yixia.

Of course, no matter how confident you are, it is still necessary to find out the content of the competition in advance. Thinking of this, Gu Zheng asked casually, "By the way, Han Zhou, you haven't told me yet, what exactly is the fun event we will participate in tomorrow?"

After these words were spoken, Han Zhou, who was already worried about not being able to withdraw from the competition, froze in his tracks and turned his head away guiltily.

"You'll find out tomorrow."

"The competition will start tomorrow, and I will know what the point is then. Tell me quickly, I have to prepare in advance."

"It's just a fun activity. To put it bluntly, it's just for fun. There's really no need to take it seriously. What's there to prepare for..."

"Why do I feel like you are deliberately hiding something from me..."

Gu Zheng looked suspicious, and gradually developed a bad premonition in her heart. She wanted to get to the bottom of the matter. She immediately pulled the wheelchair and turned it 180 degrees, staring into Han Zhou's eyes, "Tell me quickly! What project did you sign me up for?"

Han Zhou knew he couldn't escape, so he took a deep breath and carefully said, "I was worried that you would be in a bad mood after losing, so I wanted to find a way to relax you. Then I happened to talk about fun projects with Senior Xia Qing..."

"Stop wasting time and get to the point!"

Gu Zheng is not a fool. As soon as she saw this guy hesitating, she knew something bad was going to happen.

At this moment, Ouyang Lianyu walked over from not far away. She saw Han Zhou lowering his head and being scolded. Although she didn't know what happened, she thought Gu Zheng should be fine. So she suppressed her smile and walked over, intending to take a closer look at Han Zhou's unlucky appearance.

No one else is afraid of Han Zhou, except Yixia and Guzheng, who can occasionally deal with him.

By the way, there is also Zhong Yin, and Han Zhou seems to be quite afraid of her.

Gu Zheng heard footsteps behind her and turned around to see Ouyang Lianyu looking at her with a smile.

"Teacher Ouyang, why are you here?"

"I've been looking for you guys everywhere."

Ouyang Lianyu didn't rush to explain the reason, but smiled and said, "What's wrong, Guzheng, did Han Zhou make you angry again?"

Guzheng didn't hesitate and immediately told the other party that Han Zhou had signed her up for tomorrow's fun event but suddenly wanted to withdraw.

Because she was worried that Teacher Ouyang would discover her true purpose, she deliberately did not mention that everyone else had signed up.

At this time, Ouyang Lianyu was still in the dark, not knowing that she was about to become Gu Zheng's opponent. After listening, she felt that Han Zhou was indeed a bit too much, so she straightened her face and put on a teacher's attitude. "Han Zhou, this is your fault. The teacher knows that you have a good relationship with Gu Zheng, but even so, you have to respect her ideas and can't make decisions for her casually, understand?"

"I understand."

Han Zhou looked like he was willing to learn, but suddenly asked, "What if it was you, teacher?"

"What?" Ouyang Lianyu was stunned.

Gu Zheng glared at Han Zhou and answered helpfully: "Han Zhou meant what would happen if he helped you make a decision? For example, if you signed up for a competition, would you be angry, teacher?"

Ouyang Lianyu hesitated, not quite understanding why the two of them suddenly asked this question, and said thoughtfully: "I don't mind this too much..."

After all, Han Zhou was willing to humble himself and help pretend to be her boyfriend. It would be too disrespectful if she even minded such a thing.

Han Zhou raised his head, a relaxed smile on his face. He suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Teacher Ouyang, where are Uncle Gu and Sister Miao?"

Ouyang Lianyu came here just for this matter. Hearing this, she replied, "They went to the milk tea shop on the right outside the school. You can go there when you are free."

The reason why the two did not come in person was because they vaguely guessed the reason why Gu Zheng was obsessed with being the first. The death of Gu Zheng's grandmother was closely related to their absence from home for many years. They were worried that coming to comfort Gu Zheng would have a counterproductive effect, otherwise they would not have appointed Han Zhou to be responsible for this matter.

"I see. We'll be there soon."

Han Zhou nodded and asked, "So the previous incident shouldn't have caused any trouble, right?"

He was referring to the incident where Guzheng's parents dragged the boy away.

"No."

Ouyang Lianyu smiled and said, "Gu Zheng's parents are both very sensible people. Not only did they not cause any adverse effects, but they quickly became friends with the students who were watching around them."

"Are you serious about 'getting along'?" Guzheng immediately looked alert.

"Of course, literally."

Ouyang Lianyu gave a wry smile. It seemed that Guzheng was very worried about her parents.

Han Zhou smiled and said, "Teacher Ouyang, how do you feel?"

Ouyang Lianyu has always been a good person in everyone's eyes. She is respected in her daily life and has hardly done anything out of line. But today she suddenly helped someone "commit a crime", and no one knows how she feels.

“…It feels surprisingly good.”

Ouyang Lianyu did not show a reproachful expression as he imagined. She adjusted her glasses and smiled gently, "Occasionally playing with you guys makes me feel a lot younger. It can be regarded as reliving my youth."

"is it?"

Han Zhou seemed to be thinking about something, and then he said, "Now there is another opportunity to relive our youth. I wonder if you would like to listen to it, teacher?"

"what chance?"

Ouyang Lianyu showed curiosity on her face and did not notice that Gu Zheng beside her had covered her eyes in pity.

Han Zhou smiled.

"I've signed you up for the competition that Guzheng will be participating in tomorrow."

The smile on Ouyang Lianyu's face froze.
