Chapter 289: Busybody

Wen Shouyi saw Gu Nianzhi, and instantly knew why He Zhichu had suddenly decided he "did not feel like attending" the meeting.

She suppressed the uneasiness within her, and shook her head to clear it. She gestured to Dou Aiyan. "Wait here, I'll be back in a minute."

Dou Aiyan and her two friends stopped in their tracks. Unable to hide their curiosity, they watched Wen Shouyi walk over to Gu Nianzhi.

"Nianzhi? Are you looking for Professor He?" Wen Shouyi stopped before Gu Nianzhi, a friendly smile on her face.

Gu Nianzhi turned to look at Wen Shouyi, entirely unfazed. She returned the smile. "Hello, Miss Wen. Yes, I'm here for Professor He."

Dou Aiyan and her friends were standing close enough to hear what Gu Nianzhi had just said.
