The Beloved and Pampered Girl

Chapter 768: Chapter 768: The Pursuit of the Jian Dan Alliance

Xiaoting put down what she was holding and went over to Zhang Yang’s side. “Mr. Zhang, are you okay?” Zhang Yang’s current appearance was really a bit frightening.

When Zhang Yang heard Xiaoting’s words, he didn’t speak but mechanically shook his head.

For the first time, Zhang Yang felt what it was like to have his heart broken.

He finally understood that bone-chilling pain and why so many people choose to end their lives because of a broken heart.

“Mr. Zhang, you don’t look fine at all!” In more than two years of high school, Xiaoting had never seen Zhang Yang like this!

A self-deprecating smile tugged at the corners of Zhang Yang’s mouth.

Seeing Zhang Yang looking so listless, Xiaoting couldn’t be bothered to say more and went straight to the point, “Mr. Zhang, you like Jian Dan, right?” Zhang Yang looked at Xiaoting with incredulous eyes.

“Teacher, don’t look so shocked. Did you think you hid it well?

Anyone with eyes could tell, okay!”

If Xiaoting had noticed, did Jian Dan also know that he liked her?

If Jian Dan was aware of his feelings for her, then the scene earlier had already proved that she really had no interest in him whatsoever.

A hint of resignation joined the smile on Zhang Yang’s face.

“I think you and Jian would make a good couple!” Xiaoting made her stance clear to Zhang Yang.

Buoyed by Xiaoting’s words, the life in Zhang Yang’s eyes, which had seemed extinguished, reignited with a glimmer of light.

“What did you just say?”

“Just the literal meaning!”

“I am a teacher and she is a student. The two of us together, do you really think that’s okay?” Zhang Yang was somewhat surprised by Xiaoting’s attitude.

After all, since ancient times, teacher-student relationships have been considered a taboo kind of love, with few people willing to accept them.

“I don’t want to beat around the bush with you. Since you like Jian, you must have noticed that the new Mr. Zhu also seems to have feelings for Jian, right?” Zhang Yang nodded weakly.

Of course, he had noticed.

Especially just now, it was painfully clear.

“I don’t like Mr. Zhu. Compared to Jian being with him, I think you’re the one who’s more suitable to be her boyfriend.”

“You seem to have some animosity towards Mr. Zhu!”

“I just can’t stand it. He’s already married, and yet he’s sending those kinds of signals to Jian.”

Right! How could he forget that Mr. Zhu was already married!

With this thought, his chances seemed much greater.

Especially now that even Jian’s close friend was on his side, his odds of winning had just gotten bigger.

Color finally returned to Zhang Yang’s face.

“Thankyou, Xiaoting!”

“I’ll do my best to create opportunities for you two. Whether you can seize them, that’s up to you!” Xiaoting said earnestly to Zhang Yang. “If you do become Jian’s boyfriend in the future, will you always be good to her?”

“I swear!”

“Good!”

The two reached an understanding.

After speaking with Zhang Yang, Xiaoting returned to Jian Dan’s side, who was currently focusing on skewering meat.

“What were you whispering to Mr. Zhang about? You’ve been gone for so long?” Jian Dan asked without looking up.

“We weren’t whispering about anything!”

“No whispering? As soon as Mr. Zhang returned, you hurried over to him, and you talked for so long. I don’t believe there’s nothing going on between you two!

Spill it! Are you secretly having an affair with Mr. Zhang?” Jian Dan raised an eyebrow.

“Jian, don’t talk nonsense. How could there be anything between me and Zhang Yang?”

“Oh, come on, you’re already on a first-name basis and you still say nothing’s going on!” Jian Dan acted as if she had caught someone in the act.

“Really, there’s nothing like that between us!” Xiaoting explained hastily.

“Nothing like that, huh? Then what is it?”

Xiaoting suddenly felt as if no matter what she said, she couldn’t make herself clear.

How had things suddenly gotten so twisted?

This was not at all what she had imagined!

“Alright, alright, I won’t pressure you anymore. I know the two of you are in a special situation and it’s not the right time to go public.. Don’t worry, I’ll keep your secret!” Jian Dan gestured zipping her lips with her hand…
