Childhood Sweethearts: He's Jealous Again!

Chapter 34: Chapter 34: Forgot to Wear the Red Scarf

“Does it still hurt?”

After he stopped, he immediately looked down and asked her.

“It hurts!” Mengmeng rolled her eyeballs, told a little lie, and blinked her eyes to take advantage, “I need more blowing for it to be okay!”

Gu Zhihan: “…” If your acting is that bad, can you just not?

Although he was inwardly criticizing her, Gu Zhihan somehow ended up blowing on her cheek again.

“Don’t take an inch and expect a mile!” After finishing blowing this time, Gu Zhihan turned his head and walked directly toward the classroom.

If Mengmeng had been in front of him at that moment, she would have seen that his face had turned slightly red.

When they returned to the classroom, the bell for class rang. It was the homeroom teacher’s Chinese class.

Upon entering the classroom, the teacher didn’t start the lesson immediately but emphasized repeatedly, with many reminders, that everyone must not forget to wear their red scarves, or else… there would be no leniency! @@novelbin@@

One should know that if a student forgot to wear a red scarf, the homeroom teacher’s salary would be docked five yuan.

Five yuan might not seem much now, but back then, it was enough for two meals for a family.

So, of course, she was anxious.

“What kind of idiot would forget to wear it?” Mengmeng couldn’t help but make a comment.

Tong Mo, the kid in front of her, immediately nodded in agreement, “Exactly! Only a fool would forget to bring it!”

“That’s right, only a pig would forget!” Lu Zichen also chimed in.

Only Gu Zhihan silently gave the three of them a look, hoping that the idiot, fool, and pig wouldn’t end up being themselves.

However…

The next day, except for Gu Zhihan, Mengmeng and the others had all splendidly forgotten to wear their red scarves.

Mengmeng didn’t initially realize she hadn’t brought her red scarf; it was Gu Zhihan who discovered it first.

“Luo Mengmeng, where is your red scarf?” After getting off the bus, it was then that Gu Zhihan noticed Luo Mengmeng’s neck was bare.

It wasn’t that he was careless, but from leaving the house to boarding the bus, he had been engrossed in reading his book, not having the time to check her attire, and most importantly, he hadn’t imagined she would be so foolish as to forget to wear the red scarf.

“Isn’t it here?” Mengmeng said while reaching to touch her neck, only to find her hand grabbing at nothing.

Looking down, other than her neck, what else could there be?

“Oh my gosh, where is my red scarf?” Mengmeng finally panicked, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. She quickly grabbed her backpack from behind, squatted on the ground, and started searching through it.

“Did you find it?” Gu Zhihan bent over to look at her, his brow slightly furrowed. If only he had not been reading earlier and had discovered it sooner, they could have returned home to get it, instead of being right at the school gate like now.

“No…” Mengmeng was on the verge of tears, her mind spinning quickly, and she suddenly remembered, “I recall now, I really did forget to bring it. I took off the red scarf last night while taking a bath and just threw it with the dirty clothes.”

Gu Zhihan: “…”

Just yesterday, someone had arrogantly said that only an idiot would forget to wear their red scarf, and today she had become the very idiot she spoke of yesterday.

“Do you have any money on you?” Gu Zhihan continued to ask, glancing at the nearby school store, “You could just buy another one.”

After all, red scarves were hanging in abundance at the stores by the school gate.

“I don’t have any…” Mengmeng inserted her hands into her pockets, turning out both empty pockets to show him, a look of wanting to cry but unable to on her face.

No money?

Gu Zhihan’s brows furrowed even deeper.

“Husband, did you bring any money?” Mengmeng then raised her head, her eyes full of hope as she looked at him.
