Chapter 1091: Chapter 1091: Zhong Li: Miss Gu, We Meet Again
Once he got a clear look at Gu Zhiqi, Zhong Li paused again, then suddenly stood up.
The young man looked up in confusion, glanced at Zhong Li, and then saw Zhong Li stride towards Gu Zhiqi.
Young man: ?
What, what’s going on?
The young man stood up in confusion and followed Zhong Li towards Gu Zhiqi and her two companions.
**
After Jin Cenglv mentioned that her advisor was over there, Gu Zhiqi gave up the idea of having her go find the young man for fortune-telling.
After all, she understood well the feeling of making up an excuse to skip class, only to run into the head teacher during that time.
However, Gu Zhiqi didn’t expect that even though she didn’t have Jin Cenglv go over for a fortune-telling, Zhong Li and the young man came to them.
"Miss Gu, we meet again."
Zhong Li stood about sixty centimeters behind Jin Cenglv and greeted Gu Zhiqi, while Jin Cenglv froze in place upon hearing the familiar voice.
She silently lowered her head, trying to minimize her presence.
Just hoping that Zhong Li wouldn’t recognize her, or better yet, not even see her.
Zhong Li’s voice made Gu Zhiqi turn her head slightly towards him, her eyes filled with doubt.
Wasn’t he Jin Cenglv’s advisor?
Why was he talking to her instead of Jin Cenglv?
Having been in this world for so long, she’s met so many people. Names were easy to remember, but matching them to the faces she had seen was challenging.
Gu Zhiqi remembered seeing this person before but couldn’t recall who he was.
After hesitating for a moment, Gu Zhiqi nodded at Zhong Li, pretending to recognize him.
Zhong Li guessed that Gu Zhiqi might not remember him, so he introduced himself, "I’m Zhong Li. We met before in Virella; you saved me."
With that, Gu Zhiqi immediately remembered who he was.
Zhong Li looked at Gu Zhiqi and said, "I’ve never had the chance to thank Miss Gu for last time. I didn’t expect to meet here; mind if we share a table and let me treat you?"
Gu Zhiqi was just about to refuse when the young man behind Zhong Li interrupted, "So you know each other? Then let’s share a table."
The young man said, glancing at Jin Cenglv.
Originally, he was considering whether or not to approach, but he hadn’t expected Brother Li to know the pretty girl.
This was a chance, a chance given by the heavens.
Even the heavens were reminding him not to miss it; of course, he had to seize this opportunity.
Although the young man managed to interrupt her refusal, Gu Zhiqi refused again, "There’s no space."
Young man, Zhong Li: ???
They silently looked at the three empty seats.
This was ’no space’?
"Master Zhi, there’s room," Lu Yao suddenly spoke up and pointed to the available seats.
Gu Zhiqi and Jin Cenglv both looked up and gave him a light glance.
Lu Yao: ?
Why was he getting those looks?
Jin Cenglv glared at Lu Yao, "You talk too much."
Lu Yao raised his hand, scratching the back of his head. He always talked a lot.
With Jin Cenglv speaking up, Zhong Li turned his gaze towards her, giving her a forced smile, "Isn’t this Jin Cenglv? What a coincidence to see you here."
Zhong Li indeed recognized her, and Jin Cenglv stiffened, quickly looking up at Zhong Li, "Teacher Zhong."
After the greeting, she immediately lowered her head again, continuing to try to diminish her presence.
The young man nearby was utterly confused.
Weren’t they students of Yan City University?
How come it sounded like she’s Brother Li’s student?
