Chapter 308: The Hospital is Not a Place to Recognize Relatives
The girl with Zhou Lei is Huang Mengxue, dressed like a typical college student, wearing a pair of glasses for shortsightedness. She has average looks but seems rather gentle and tranquil. She speaks politely and is a stark contrast to Deng Wenwen’s vivacious and bold personality.
She might not be as beautiful as Deng Wenwen, but she possesses a certain aura that Deng Wenwen lacks.
Zhou Lei mentioned that Huang Mengxue is his senior by one year at the university. Judging by their ambiguous relationship and Zhou Lei’s thoughtful care towards her, it seemed he was in the pursuit stage of the relationship. It wasn’t long before they would become an official couple.
It appears Deng Wenwen is bound to be heartbroken for some time.
Zhou Lei had previously spoken of his desire to become a civil servant. If that were the case, Huang Mengxue would indeed be more suitable for him, or rather, he believes Huang Mengxue is more fitting.
Tong Yao, although she understood, chose not to reveal the truth. Instead, she strived to maintain a lively atmosphere. Zhou Lei also noticed Deng Wenwen’s mood was off. He had a faint suspicion about why this might be the case, but did not confront it. After dinner, he left with his senior.
"Sister Yaoyao, is Zhou Lei going to get a girlfriend?" Deng Wenwen, despite her naivety, understood that Zhou Lei treated Huang Mengxue and her differently. He treated her like a younger sister but was tender towards Huang Mengxue, looking after her in every possible way.
When Huang Mengxue sat down, Zhou Lei would wipe down the table for her and would constantly come up with topics to keep her entertained, avoiding boredom. However, when he was with Deng Wenwen, he’d always act like an elder brother, giving her lectures and mentoring her.
The contrast was too obvious, making it easy to tell who he liked.
Tong Yao stated straightforwardly: "Possibly, he believes Huang Mengxue is more suitable for him. Zhou Lei is a very thoughtful person. When choosing a companion, he probably also considers someone who can provide him with beneficial assistance."
