Chapter 155: The Girl’s Heart Suffers a Billion Blows
It was just around noon, and the sun was scorching like a tongue of fire, almost seeming to burn the skin of anyone it hit. Tong Yao walked home along the tree-lined road, distractedly thinking about the home renovation. As a result, she almost got knocked down by a man on a bicycle. Luckily, she had quick reactions and dodged in time, bumping into the tree instead. She stumbled slightly, almost falling, and the clothing bag in her hand dropped to the ground.
The man on the bicycle was also startled, quickly propping up his bike with his foot to prevent himself from falling. He was already in a bad mood, and now this had happened, leaving him irritated. Just as he was about to look up and swear, he saw that the girl in front of him had a lovely figure. Probably a pretty young lady, he thought, and his irritability immediately turned into concern.
"I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to do it. Are you okay?"
The man left his bicycle to the side and walked forward to help Tong Yao pick up the clothing bag.
Tong Yao, who was about to bend down to pick up the bag, looked surprised. She straightened up and took the clothing bag, about to say ’I’m fine’, when she noticed the man suddenly step back like a scared rabbit.
Looking up at the man, Tong Yao felt he looked very familiar, like an overripe red-bottomed monkey, but she couldn’t recall where she had seen him before.
"..." The man finally realized who Tong Yao was, and his charmingly charming gentlemanly expression stiffened, replaced by a look of disdain. He had thought he’d had a chance encounter with a beauty, but instead it turned out to be a homely girl. Seeing Tong Yao staring at him, he was afraid he’d be followed, and practically broke the bicycle chain trying to ride away as quickly as he could.
Tong Yao: "..." Her young heart took an enormous hit.
