Chapter 193

It's like a hedgehog using its sharp spines to protect its soft interior.

In order to avoid getting hurt, Han Yu can only show her most dangerous side.

Of course, all of this was just Wu Liang's speculation.

He just had this strange feeling that he couldn't put into words.

At best, it was just Wu Liang's own speculation and imagination.

"The old saying is true: men are attracted to dangerous women."

Ning Shuang rolled her eyes at Wu Liang.

He's probably the only person who could be interested in such a dangerous woman.

If she were a man, she would have run as far away as possible after seeing someone like Han Yu.

Even if the other person is madly in love with you.

She would never associate with someone like Han Yu.

"By the way, how's your exam preparation going?"

"The exam is tomorrow, are you okay?"

Suddenly remembering the mock exam tomorrow, Ning Shuang frowned.

She knew very well what level Wu Liang's grades were at.

"No problem, don't worry too much."

Wu Liang patted Ning Shuang's head.

"Hey, do you remember you owe me something?"

Ning Shuang suddenly hopped over to Wu Liang.

Actually, she had wanted to talk to Wu Liang about this a few days ago.

But then I realized that the exam was coming up soon, so I had to postpone the plan.

But this is the last chance, and we can't afford to miss it.

"I remember," you said.

After seeing Ning Shuang's expectant eyes.

Wu Liang's heart skipped a beat.

An ominous premonition coiled around his neck like a cold, thin snake.

Wait... could it be that Ning Shuang...

Let's go see a movie this weekend after the exams.

"That movie was in its last release over the weekend, and I didn't want to miss it."

Ning Shuang smiled gently, her beautiful eyes seeming to hold stars.

She said with great anticipation.

Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Timekeeper

Let's go see a movie together this weekend after the exams.

Ning Shuang stood in front of Wu Liang, speaking with anticipation.

Her toes twitched nervously on the ground, as if she were a little shy.

Ning Shuang's small hands were fidgeting behind her back, showing that she was also very nervous.

After all, this was the first time she had taken the initiative to invite Wu Liang out to play.

Although they used to have a good relationship.

But Ning Shuang never went out with Wu Liang in private.

At most, they just chatted at school.

But things are different now.

Wu Liang was even more mysterious than she had imagined.

Especially after the incident at the Star Gazing Tower.

Wu Liang also learned the secret that she had kept hidden deep in her heart all along.

Her relationship with Wu Liang has become much closer than before.

In a sense, Wu Liang could be considered her closest friend.

However, her understanding of Wu Liang was pitifully limited.

Therefore, she wanted to learn more about Wu Liang.

"Weekend?"

Wu Liang stared at Ning Shuang, whose face was full of expectation, his eyes twitching.

Hopefully he misheard; maybe it was Saturday or something.

Ning Shuang probably wouldn't have chosen that by such coincidence.

"Yes, there's a movie I want to see this weekend."

"The weekend is the last one, and I can specially save it for after the exam for you."

"That movie was really good, I think you'll love it."

Ning Shuang put her hands on her hips and pouted.

Judging from Wu Liang's expression, he seems to be in a difficult position.

Does he have other plans for the weekend?

Or is Wu Liang hiding something from her?

She knows Wu Liang very well, except for coming to school every day.

Wu Liang usually stays home to rest during his breaks and rarely goes out shopping on his own initiative.

"How about Saturday? I have some things to do over the weekend."

"I think I might not be able to arrive on time."

Wu Liang pinched the bridge of his nose; he felt a bit dizzy.

How did Ning Shuang and Han Yu end up together?

You should know that he had just agreed to go on a date with Han Yu this weekend.

What a coincidence that Ning Shuang also chose this weekend.

"I'm going out with my family on Saturday, so I won't have time."

"Do you have any plans for the weekend? Even if you do, surely you don't have to be busy all day?"

"I can wait for you; we can postpone our meeting a little."

Ning Shuang looked at Wu Liang with some curiosity.

It's quite rare for Wu Liang to have plans on the weekend.

In her memory, Wu Liang had always been a homebody who never left his house.

Even when I go out occasionally, it's just to get some fresh air and buy some things.

"I do have things to do this weekend..."

"Wu Liang, do you intend to go back on your word?"

Before Wu Liang could finish speaking...

Ning Shuang was the first to speak, interrupting him.

A slight hint of sadness appeared on her pretty face.

Was the agreement between him and Wu Liang really so worthless?

Wu Liang had clearly made that solemn promise back then.

But when I need him, he can't even fulfill such a simple request?

"Never mind, this is my problem."

He lowered his head and gave a bitter smile.

Ning Shuang lowered her eyes and shook her head bitterly.

Perhaps Wu Liang really had something to do, and I shouldn't have been so domineering.

I probably couldn't get away because I already had plans for the weekend.

I cannot let my willfulness put Wu Liang in a dilemma.

Wu Liang is not the kind of man who only talks big.

It just so happens that we met this time.

Yes, that must be it, it's just that Wu Liang had made arrangements beforehand.

"I'm sorry, I was a little impulsive just now."

"You don't have to watch the movie, you should focus on your own things first."

Ning Shuang also realized that her tone earlier had been somewhat unpleasant.

Perhaps it's because something they've been looking forward to for so long ultimately fell through.

This caused her emotions to become somewhat unstable.

"Never mind, go ahead and do your thing, don't worry about me."

"I just didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, that it happened on the very day you had something to do."

He patted his cheeks hard and cheered himself up.

Ning Shuang rubbed her face and then gave a somewhat stiff smile.

Even though I know it was just a coincidence, I'm still a little disappointed.

It would be impossible for her not to feel disappointed, after all, this was an opportunity she had been waiting for for a long time.

But there's nothing we can do about it; we have to understand Wu Liang.

They didn't intentionally reject me.

"No need, let's go see a movie this weekend."

Seeing Ning Shuang's dejected expression, Wu Liang sighed helplessly.

He reached out and placed his hand on Ning Shuang's head, speaking softly.

If it's just watching a movie, it shouldn't take too long.

A movie is at most two hours long.

As long as he can manage his time reasonably.

It's not actually that difficult to accomplish these two things in one day.

"Huh? But didn't you have something to do this weekend?"

Ning Shuang's eyes, which had dimmed, lit up again.

Ning Shuang, who had already given up, widened her eyes in surprise.

Wu Liang did this to take care of his own feelings...

"There should still be plenty of time after we finish that matter."

Besides, watching a movie won't take too long.

Wu Liang gently ruffled Ning Shuang's hair, lost in thought.
