Chapter 141 Can't you tell who I like?
Chapter 141 Can't you tell who I like?
The treetops were covered with snow, and in the silent and mysterious forest, shallow footprints were left in the snow.
"Sweetie, I have some good news for you." Gu Chenyi couldn't hide his excitement as he held the hand of his beloved girl.
"what?"
"Shi Sui didn't go to the study tour this morning either."
Jiang Tianyao's heart skipped a beat, her eyes widened slightly, and her eyes involuntarily reddened.
Why did Gu Chenyi bring up Shi Sui in front of her?
A faint sense of panic rose in my heart.
"What's wrong, Tiantian?" Gu Chenyi noticed her emotional fluctuation and reached out to stroke her cheek.
"Chen Yi, you are the most important person to me. I don't want to lose you. Please don't abandon me..." Jiang Tianyao hugged him, her voice trembling with tears.
"What are you thinking? How could I possibly be interested in that lunatic?" Gu Chenyi scoffed.
He continued, "Last night I arranged for Shi Sui to fall into a snow pit. She didn't go on the study tour, so I guess she hasn't climbed out yet."
Jiang Tianyao couldn't believe it and murmured repeatedly, "You made Shi Sui fall into the snow pit?"
"How about that, feeling better now?"
Gu Chenyi said affectionately, "Sweetie, I know you've been in a bad mood lately because of her. I want to stand up for you and teach her a lesson."
Jiang Tianyao was stunned.
Falling into a snow pit in the freezing cold is a very dangerous thing, and people tragically lose their lives every year.
She knew that Gu Chenyi was wrong to harm people, but why, why did she feel a faint sense of excitement?
It's as if they're saying, "It would be better if Shi Sui just disappeared."
This is not right.
Jiang Tianyao looked at him and asked, "Chen Yi, will anyone find out?"
"No, I did it perfectly." Gu Chenyi suddenly remembered, "Oh right, I saw her with Xu Chaomu last night. Tsk, what a flirtatious slut."
Gu Chenyi held her in his arms, gazing deeply into her eyes: "Sweetie, you're different from that slut. You only have eyes for me, and so do I. I will always love only you."
A warm feeling welled up in Jiang Tianyao's heart.
She also looked at Gu Chenyi with deep affection.
She tiptoed, he leaned down, and their lips irresistibly drew near—
They only had eyes for each other.
Suddenly, a figure darted out from behind the pine tree, carrying a shovel.
"Thump!" The sound of an impact rang out.
The two, who hadn't even had a chance to embrace deeply before sharing a passionate kiss, flew towards the freshly dug snow pit behind the pine tree.
Shi Sui held up a shovel and looked around.
The parabola is perfect!
One shovel into the hole!
She really has a talent for golf!
Shi Sui smiled contentedly, begging for praise: [System! Aren't I amazing!]
[That's amazing! He hit two people with one shovel!]
Shi Sui hoisted the shovel onto her shoulder and swaggered back. After a few steps, the smile on her lips vanished.
[System, I heard everything. Gu Chenyi made me stay silent last night, and he even cursed at me just now.]
System: [Let's go! We need to vent our anger! Bury him!]
Without hesitation, Shi Sui walked back to the vicinity of the snow pit and began shoveling snow into it.
As the snow fell heavily on him, Gu Chenyi looked up to see what was going on. Just as he was about to curse, snow splattered all over his face, and he ended up with a mouthful of snow.
Shi Sui had a conscience and knew she couldn't harm people, so she didn't fill the snow pit; she at least wanted to let them peek out to breathe.
Once it was done, he immediately grabbed his shovel and left.
With an air of utter disregard for family and friends, they marched with an air of pride and arrogance.

The girl's image was deleted and erased from the monitoring screen.
The room was quiet, with only the sound of fingers tapping on the keyboard, like the echo of wind chimes.
Through the surveillance camera, Xu Chaomu saw Shi Sui carrying a shovel on her shoulder. The image quality was not clear, but he could feel the smile on her face.
Her steps in the snow were unusually cheerful, and you always had to worry that her hat might fly off her head.
His entire body radiated an aura of light.
After setting up the surveillance system to automatically capture and delete targets, Xu Chaomu picked up the down jacket from the back of the chair, put it on, and left the room.
It's too obvious. The reason Shi Sui wanted to bury Gu Chenyi was because of what happened last night.
He didn't feel anyone pushing him last night, so it must be his problem.
With a bit of skill, anyone can delete surveillance footage.
Xu Chaomu couldn't help but think of the incident on the dark web. The poster had no grudge against Shi Sui, so it could only be that someone was behind it. And who was behind it—
This morning, when he asked her if she wanted Gu Chenyi dead, she did not answer.
But he had already seen her answer.
But if she really wanted Gu Chenyi dead, she could have buried him deep inside, deleted the surveillance footage, and destroyed the evidence. He could have helped her commit the perfect crime.
But she still spared Gu Chenyi's life.
She and he were kindred spirits; if they truly wanted to kill someone, they couldn't help but do it.
Perhaps it really was just a prank to get revenge?

The sunset at Changbai Mountain is quick; even before four o'clock, the distant glow of the sunset is magnificent, covering most of the sky, and the clear sky gradually changes from orange-red to pink.
Shi Sui saw Xu Chaomu.
The boy stood in the twilight, his hair slightly disheveled, his turtleneck sweater pressed against his chin, his demeanor cool and pure, like a god untouched by the mortal world.
Shi Sui ran happily toward him, her heart overflowing with the joy of revenge.
Xu Chaomu walked towards her as well. Her fair cheeks were glowing with a light pinkish hue, making her already radiant face even more beautiful.
And so she barged into his world, bright and dazzling, beautiful beyond compare.
She was running too fast and accidentally fell into someone's arms. Just as Shi Sui was about to take a step back, a hand supported her back.
Shi Sui: "I'm standing firm now, I won't fall, thank you for helping me."
But Xu Chaomu didn't pull his hand back, and asked her, "Why are you so late?"
Shi Sui looked up at him, her eyes crinkling: "I just met some volunteers shoveling snow. I happened to have a shovel, so I helped them shovel snow, and I gave the shovel to them too."
Those eyes that looked over were very bright, like stars that had fallen from the sky.
Xu Chaomu smiled along with her, the stars reflected in his eyes: "I've already deleted all the surveillance footage, no one will find out about this."
"Thank you so much! Let me think of a way to repay you—"
As Shi Sui was deep in thought, her vision suddenly darkened. When she looked at him again, his gaze held an unfathomable meaning that she couldn't understand.
"Could you consider what I said last night?"
He looked down at her, and the moment their eyes met, the atmosphere became thick and heavy.
Shi Sui suddenly realized how close they were and hurriedly said, "Xu Chaomu, could you please take your hand off my back? We're too close."
Xu Chaomu didn't move: "Think about it?"
"What are you thinking about?" Shi Sui didn't quite understand, but her attention was more focused on his hand pressing against her back. "You have someone you like, it's not appropriate for us to be so close."
Xu Chaomu smiled softly, her dark eyes, tinged with desire, gazing intently.
"Shi Sui, can't you tell who I like?"
Pink rays of light poured down.
Everything became irresistible.
