Hearing this, Gu Ruoxue glanced at the pastries and was stunned. She looked at these colorful pastries with surprise and confusion in her pupils.

Because these are pastries from the souvenir shop at the entrance of the hotel in Sucheng County, just looking at them brings back some memories.

However, there are doubts.

Why did he suddenly bring out this kind of pastry?

“Try the taste of home.”

Su Cheng sat on the sofa with a smile on his face, and took a sip of tea from the mug with a calm look on his face.

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Ruoxue picked up a white piece, put it in her mouth, chewed it twice and swallowed it. Immediately, a taste from her memories emerged, familiar yet strange. She raised her eyes to look at Su Cheng and asked calmly, "This time, the word 'meticulous preparation' was not wasted lightly."

After saying that, he glanced at Su Cheng again, then looked at the plate full of pastries beside him. He seemed to have a vague grasp of something in his mind, that is, he might be conveying some message, but there was a layer of window paper between them, so she could not figure out the secret for a while.

In Su Cheng's words, he has become the person he hates the most, the Riddler.

Just as she continued to try to understand and figure out some deeper meaning, she suddenly found Su Cheng staring at the bookshelf in a daze.

This made her look and she suddenly discovered that there was a very special book among the row of books.

Before she could ask, Su Cheng suddenly stood up and walked over, then took the special book from the bookshelf, turned around and handed it to Gu Ruoxue.

"I didn't expect you to read this kind of book."

Su Cheng looked at her with a rather surprised tone.

Basic Laws of Male Protagonists in Online Stories

Gu Ruoxue looked at the title of the book, and felt a strange feeling in her heart. She even had a terrifying illusion. She looked up, lifted her hair and put it behind her ears, and whispered, "It's just to study the development trend of online literature and the public taste. After all, as the director of the practice department, in order to help others, I need to have a deep understanding of various cultural phenomena, whether they are elegant or popular. Of course, this does not mean that I agree with the content of the book. I just study it with a critical eye. In short, read a wide range of literary works in order to better guide and influence others."

"is it?"

Su Cheng shrugged, then sat on the sofa and said casually, "I thought Xiaoxue and Guanqi thought I was the hero. She also has this book."

Hearing this, Gu Ruoxue opened the book casually and flipped through it carelessly. Although her face was calm, she already had some guesses in her mind. She felt that taking out this book was probably not an accidental event, but Su Cheng did it deliberately.

No matter how you look at it, he is constantly attracting her attention.

"It seems that someone has confused this with real life. I have to admit that you do have certain characteristics, but unfortunately, people in this world are more or less special."

Gu Ruoxue said this, closed the book and put it on the table at the side. She stared at Su Cheng for a while before saying, "Besides, secretly taking other people's private belongings is not the behavior of a protagonist."

"Sorry, sorry."

Su Cheng scratched his head, showing a slightly honest smile, raised a finger, and suggested: "I will punish myself with a story for my recklessness."

"story?"

Gu Ruoxue raised her eyebrows, glanced at Su Cheng, then stretched out her jade fingers to pick up a piece of cake, put it between her cherry-like lips, slowly bit it, and took a sip of black tea. Then she asked with interest: "Let me listen for now."

"Hmm... then it's a story about a princess and a prince?"

Su Cheng pretended to think, then stopped talking nonsense and began to speak slowly. His face became kind and his tone became soft, as if he was an old man who specialized in telling stories. His tone was melodious and low, and people would be attracted by it after listening to it.

Gu Ruoxue listened quietly to the story he told.

A serious look appeared on his focused face.

Ten minutes later.

The story has come to an end.

"And so, the prince and princess lived happily ever after!"

When Su Cheng read this passage, he suddenly stood up, opened his arms, and his voice became much louder, as if he was venting all the suppressed emotions in his heart, and as if he was happy for the princess and the prince to find happiness. In short, his whispering became very excited.

This scared Gu Ruoxue, but before she could scold him, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred to her mind, as if she had grasped something, and she felt that she was getting closer and closer to the answer.

Su Cheng's mood changes were definitely not without reason.

This meaningful change, coupled with the previous suspicious behaviors, must contain some kind of message.

Although he could ask Su Cheng directly, her self-esteem made her too embarrassed to ask for confirmation, so she would rather look for the answer slowly.

Because she vaguely felt that these answers would bring her a huge shock.

"somebody is coming."

Just then, footsteps were heard outside the door. Su Cheng reminded him and started drinking tea with the cup.

Gu Ruoxue immediately collected her thoughts and returned to her usual aloof and cold appearance. She sat dignified and elegantly on the chair, waiting for the knock on the door.

"Boom boom boom!"

Someone knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

Gu Ruoxue let out a cool, slightly hoarse and charming voice.

Then, a male classmate in school uniform pushed the door open and came into view.

Gu Ruoxue glanced around briefly, because she found that the first person who came looked at Su Cheng next to her, which made her realize that he might be looking for Su Cheng, so she focused her attention on the student and waited for him to speak.

As expected, he just said, "Minister Gu, sorry to bother you. I hope you don't mind."

"It's okay. What's wrong with you?"

Gu Ruoxue asked politely, her eyes resting on the boy. She knew his name was Hoshino Kazuki.

"this…"

Hoshino Kazuki looked at Su Cheng, who was sitting quietly beside him, with some embarrassment, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Seeing this, Su Cheng stood up and said in surprise: "Senior, are you here to see me? Could it be that you are…"

However, before Su Cheng could open his mouth, Hoshino Ikki rushed over and covered his mouth. He then quickly pulled Su Cheng back to the corner of the room, smiled at Gu Ruoxue, and then whispered to Su Cheng: "Junior Su Cheng, please shut up! Don't tell anyone about this."

"Uh-huh! Uh-huh!"

Su Cheng shook his head and nodded desperately, indicating that he understood and promised not to say anything nonsense.

Then Hoshino Ikki loosened his hand, straightened his clothes, looked at Gu Ruoxue politely, and said apologetically: "Sorry, I have something I want to see Junior Su Cheng for."

"It doesn't matter. Minister Gu knows about this."

Suddenly, Su Cheng next to him said something shocking, and Xingye Yihui almost jumped up. He stared at Su Cheng in shock and said in disbelief: "What did you say?"

"I mean, our minister knows about the Penguin Prince."

Su Cheng then added: "Not only do I know, I also know about the entanglement between the Penguin Prince and you."

"How can it be!?"

Hoshino Kazuki was completely confused. He looked at Su Cheng and couldn't help but question him, "I told you not to tell anyone about this, and you promised me at the beginning."

"I'm a tight-lipped person." Su Cheng quickly waved his hands, looking like he was wronged and extremely aggrieved.

"That…"

Hoshino Kazuki looked at the cold and beautiful Gu Ruoxue at a loss. After seeing her nod slightly, he looked at Su Cheng beside him and said, "How did Minister Gu know that?"

"Of course I said that."

Su Cheng crossed his arms, nodded and spoke again.

Hoshino Kazuki: …

"Okay, are you guys done talking?"

Gu Ruoxue broke the tense atmosphere between the two and said indifferently: "Everything he does in school needs to be reported to the club. This is the club's rule."

"what?"

Hoshino Kazuki was stunned for a moment, but then he became even more confused. He turned around and looked at Su Cheng with a strange look. Su Cheng suddenly leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Actually... my relationship with her is very complicated, and she has a strong desire for control. I have to report everything I do to her."

"what?"

When Hoshino Kazuki heard the news, he was stunned again. He stared blankly at Gu Ruoxue and Su Cheng for a long time. It was obvious that the news was very shocking.

Hearing Su Cheng's slow whisper, Gu Ruoxue, who was pouring tea in a disposable cup, froze for a moment, but then regained her composure, as if she hadn't heard it.

"Please take a seat."

Gu Ruoxue put the disposable bowl on the table and gestured for her to sit down first.

The two of them did as they were told and sat down.

"Senior, if you have anything to ask for, you can ask the club to do it in the name of entrustment. Anything is fine."

Su Cheng spoke first, suggesting with a smile.

Gu Ruoxue raised her head and looked directly at Su Cheng with her cold eyes, because she found that Su Cheng seemed to have expected that Hoshino Kazuki would come to see him.

It's like everything was planned in advance.

"This one……"

Hoshino Kazuki looked at the black tea in the paper cup in front of him with some hesitation. He didn't know whether he should take a sip to moisten his throat first, or finish his words before clinking glasses?

After all, what he wanted to ask Su Cheng to do today was very difficult, and Minister Gu seemed to have a strange relationship with Su Cheng, so it was obviously inappropriate to ask Su Cheng to do this.

"Senior, just tell me what you have to say. No matter what it is, there is no problem."

Su Cheng seemed to know what Hoshino Kazuki was worried about, so he encouraged him with a smile.

Gu Ruoxue remained silent, staring at Hoshino Kazuki with her cold eyes, trying to read something from his face. However, to her disappointment, this guy had no other expression except embarrassment and awkwardness.

Finally, Hoshino Ikki decided to go all out and said through gritted teeth, "Minister Gu, I'm really in trouble here, and I need Junior Su Cheng's help, and it has to be him."

"Oh?"

Gu Ruoxue had already guessed something in her mind, but she still pretended not to understand and asked, "What is it?"

"cough."

Hoshino Kazuki coughed dryly, feeling a little embarrassed, but he still opened his mouth to explain the reason and recounted everything that happened on the rooftop this afternoon.

After hearing her description, Gu Ruoxue's face became even more strange. She turned her head to look at Su Cheng with suspicion in her eyes. It was obvious that the woman who went to the rooftop at noon was Li Guanqi.

He actually let Li Guanqi handle this matter!

What Crown Princess?!

"so."

At this point, Hoshino Ikki stood up, and then suddenly used traditional skills, kneeling on the floor, and said to Gu Ruoxue: "Minister Gu, please help me, help my sister, she is in a really bad state now!"

He spoke very quickly, finishing his entire sentence in one breath.

"Stand up first."

"Yes."

"So, what do you want Su Cheng to do?"

Gu Ruoxue pondered for a moment and asked slowly.

Hoshino Kazuki was delighted, and said earnestly and sincerely: "Let junior Su Cheng pretend to be possessed by the penguin prince. Just go and see my sister, and I will tell him how to do it!"

After hearing this, Gu Ruoxue rubbed her temples as if she had a headache and sighed, "I can't give you a definite answer on this matter right now, but you go back first, I'll talk to him and tell you the result later."

Hearing this, Hoshino Kazuki turned his head and looked to the side, only to see Su Cheng nodding at him affirmatively.

"Thank you, Director Gu! Thank you, junior." Hoshino Kazuki was grateful and kept thanking as he walked. Then he left the club after Su Cheng opened the door.

Su Cheng walked him out of the club, then sat on the sofa, picked up the teacup, smiled, raised his head, as if sighing and asking:

"It feels subtle and dramatic, don't you think?"

Chapter 435 Gaze

in the afternoon

"Dingling bell~"

The bell for the club to end rang, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the campus, and the entire college seemed to be covered in a red coat.

"Phew~ It's finally over!"

Zhao Yan walked out of the building, crossed her arms and stretched lazily. Her cheeks were coated with golden color by the setting sun, and her original flowing blonde hair made her look as young, beautiful and shining as a goddess walking out of a comic book.

The destructive power of her unintentional scene made the boys who were also passing by the club blush and their hearts beat like drums. Some of them even swallowed their saliva secretly.

"Come to think of it, I rarely run into him at this time."
