Childhood Sweethearts: He's Jealous Again!

Chapter 43: Chapter 43: Want a Hug

“Are your hands warmer now?” After a while, Gu Zhihan slightly lifted his dark eyes to look at the little girl, seeing her head topped with a thick layer of snowflakes, he instinctively brushed them off with his hand.

“My hands are warm…” Mengmeng blinked her big eyes in response, but with a quick turn of her eyeballs, she added, “But my body is still a bit cold.”

“So?” Gu Zhihan wanted to see what trick she would pull next.

“So… could you help warm up my body too?” Mengmeng looked at him with a face full of expectation, stretching out her little arms from that bulky cotton jacket, signaling him, “I want a hug!”

“Don’t push your luck!”

Gu Zhihan’s ears turned red, he snorted and then walked away from her, lifting his legs towards the direction of the classroom.

Mengmeng was utterly dumbfounded, just as she was about to lower her arms and follow him, Lu Zichen, like a little whirlwind, rushed over and opened his arms toward her, “Mengmeng, if he won’t hug you, I will hug you, I’ll warm you up!”

He shouted as he ran over.

Ahead, Gu Zhihan, who hadn’t gone far, heard this and immediately frowned, instinctively walking back to Mengmeng’s side and pulling her away, “Hey, what are you spacing out for, it’s time to go home!”

Saying this, he somewhat rudely grabbed her wrist and dragged her away.

Even if he wouldn’t hug her, it wasn’t someone else’s turn to do so.

“Hey, Mengmeng, don’t go, ahhh—”

Lu Zichen, who was running over, couldn’t stop in time and the next second he spectacularly fell into the snow pile, only his legs still visible outside, struggling continuously. It took him quite an effort to climb out, and by then, his face was all covered in snow, making him look like a white-bearded old man.

“Gu Zhihan, damn you!” Lu Zichen wiped his face and cursed at his retreating figure.

If he hadn’t suddenly pulled Luo Mengmeng away, he would be holding his tender and fragrant sweetheart by now, instead of having fallen in the snow!

“Serves you right…” Tong Mo was enjoying the misfortune, laughing and rolling on the ground, calling out for meddling as a ‘homewrecker’! @@novelbin@@

Meanwhile, Luo Mengmeng and Gu Zhihan had already packed their bags and walked home together.

As they reached the alley, Luo Mengmeng saw her mother standing there with a thick rolling pin, looking fearsomely imposing.

“Mom, what are you doing standing here?” Mengmeng couldn’t help but swallow nervously, sensing an ominous premonition.

“Mom what mom, don’t call me mom, I am not your mom!” Luo Meng’s mom spat out the most classic line she used when angry.

Mengmeng quickly corrected herself, “Auntie!”

“Auntie my foot!” Luo Meng’s mom both irritated and amused, marched over with hands on hips, glaring and pointing at her, “Stop talking nonsense, Luo Mengmeng, I can tolerate you scoring zero on tests, but cheating? The teacher even called home, I’ll see if I don’t beat you to death!”

As she spoke, the thick rolling pin in Luo Meng’s mom’s hand was already raised.

“Ah, husband, save me!” Seeing the rolling pin raised towards her, Mengmeng let out a sharp scream, quickly hiding behind Gu Zhihan.

The old shrew was really an old shrew, punishing them at school wasn’t enough, she had to call the parents and complain again. This was clearly not letting her have a good new year!
