Chapter 112 The Best Company
The next morning, everyone was holed up in their rooms studying, even Gong Zi didn't come to bother Zhou Yi as she usually would.

Zhou Yi chuckled, imagining the girl smirking confidently, tilting her head as she delivered those lines in her signature cool tone.
Sure enough, Gong Zi wasn't nearly as heartbroken as Zhou Yi had imagined.
