Chapter 1602 — See for Yourself

"What do you mean, confident? That you'll draw Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu?" Wei Zhao asked.

"Yes. I sneaked over earlier to check for you. The slip with Shen Yushu's name on it is slightly shorter than the others — it's the last one and there's no cardboard backing left on it. If you compare carefully, you can tell them apart. But Gu Mengyao's is no different from the rest." Kang** said in a low voice.

"Not bad, you little rascal, going off and playing spy." Wei Zhao chuckled. "So how about this — when the time comes, you draw Xiaoshu's slip. No problem, right?"

"What? No way, I wouldn't dare!" Kang** shook his head vigorously at the thought. Setting aside the fact that Xiaoshu would inevitably become Wei Zhao's woman — and therefore Kang**'s sister-in-law — even if that weren't the case, he had a girlfriend now. If Xiaofen found out, wouldn't she blow her top?

So hearing Wei Zhao's suggestion, Kang** naturally refused again and again.

"Heh, can't you designate someone else? When the time comes, just designate me." Wei Zhao laughed.

"That's true!" Kang**'s eyes lit up. "Alright, Boss, leave it to me — mission guaranteed to be completed!"

The boys who had drawn their lots all scurried away to the side, furtive and cautious, to peek at their slips. Those who had drawn a girl they fancied naturally beamed with delight, but those who hadn't wore sour expressions, racking their brains over whom to swap with!

The unluckiest of all were those who had no particular girl in mind yet somehow drew a slip belonging to someone they didn't get along with — what a headache! And of course, there were those who drew an ugly girl, their faces turning the color of sauerkraut.

When it was Wei Zhao's turn, he reached into the box and, following the spot Gao Xiaofu had described, found a slip wedged into the crevice at the corner of the box. After pocketing it, he casually stuffed another slip back in.

After Wei Zhao finished drawing, it was Kang**'s turn. He rummaged around in the box for quite a while before finally locating the shortened slip. Fortunately, both of them had drawn early — otherwise, if someone else had picked it up first, Wei Zhao would have had no choice but to seize it by force!

Then again, even if Shen Yushu's slip did end up in someone else's hands, no one would dare refuse to hand it back to Wei Zhao — besides being afraid of Shen Yushu, they were equally afraid of Wei Zhao!

"Boss, mission accomplished!" After drawing his lot, Kang** announced happily to Wei Zhao.

"Good." Wei Zhao nodded and walked over to Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu.

"So, Arrow Bro, did you draw Xiaoshu?" Shen Yushu asked eagerly.

Wei Zhao smiled faintly and handed the slip in his hand to Shen Yushu.

Seeing Wei Zhao's gesture, Shen Yushu thought he had drawn her name and was instantly overjoyed. But when she read the name on the slip, a wave of disappointment washed over her — though some happiness lingered. "Sis Yaoyao, it's you!"

"Is that so..." An inexplicable thrill surged through Gu Mengyao's heart, though on the surface she remained perfectly composed. "It's alright, I suppose. Better than an unfamiliar classmate, anyway."

"Heh..." Wei Zhao chuckled and said nothing more.

Shen Yushu, on the other hand, looked left and right, trying to spot who had drawn her slip. She was planning to go and have that person designate Wei Zhao — otherwise, hmph, Shen Yushu wouldn't let him get away with it! Let someone else kiss her? What a joke!

"What are you looking for?" Wei Zhao asked, amused.

"I want to see who drew my slip," Shen Yushu said.

"Yours is with Kang**," Wei Zhao laughed.

"Huh?" Shen Yushu blinked in surprise, then understood at once and broke into a delighted smile. "Yay! He's going to designate you, right?"

"Should be," Wei Zhao replied with a rueful smile.

"Ooooh!" Shen Yushu was thrilled. "I've already kissed Arrow Bro directly before, but I've never tried this kind of safe kiss..."

Shen Yushu's words made Wei Zhao break out in a cold sweat. A direct kiss? That was mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, for crying out loud!

To demonstrate their fairness and impartiality, Zhong Yongliang and Gao Xiaofu deliberately left themselves to draw last. And the slip Zhong Yongliang happened to draw was precisely the one Wei Zhao had tucked into the crevice at the edge of the box!

"What?" Gao Xiaofu stared at the slip in his hand, his entire face turning the color of bitter gourd! The name he had drawn was that of Zhen Ruhua — the second ugliest girl to attend this reunion! This girl wasn't just beefy and grotesquely fat; she was absurdly short, even more Ruhua than the Ruhua from the movies!

"Bro Liang, what am I supposed to do? How can my luck be this terrible?" Gao Xiaofu looked at the slip in his hand, close to tears with none to shed.

"Hahaha!" Zhong Yongliang glanced at Gao Xiaofu's slip and couldn't stop himself from howling with laughter. "You, my friend, have been outsmarted by your own cleverness. You prepared a special slip for me — why didn't you prepare one for yourself? Serves you right, doesn't it?"

In truth, it wasn't that Gao Xiaofu hadn't wanted to prepare one. He had originally planned to secretly palm a slip beforehand and pretend to draw it when the time came! But this was the height of summer — everyone was wearing short sleeves, and there was no way to hide a slip in his hand!

He wasn't a magician, so he had no choice but to draw with his own hand! The reason he had made Shen Yushu's slip shorter was precisely so that he could draw it himself when the time came and casually designate it for Wei Zhao. After all, Gao Xiaofu had no girl he fancied in their class — he was only cooperating with Zhong Yongliang. Whether he played this game or not was all the same to him!

But now, having drawn this Zhen Ruhua, there was no one he could designate her to — no one would accept! He had no choice but to step into the ring himself!

Meanwhile, Zhong Yongliang was still mocking Gao Xiaofu. Still laughing, he raised his own slip to look at it — and instantly let out a strangled "Gah!" and froze with his jaw hanging open! The name on his slip wasn't Gu Mengyao at all, but Mei Ruxian — the ugliest girl in their class! Truly "beautiful as an immortal"!

This woman not only had a face full of craters but also a crooked mouth and skewed eyes, a set of yellow teeth, and breath so foul you could smell it from ten feet away! The thought that his safe-kiss partner was going to be someone like this nearly made Zhong Yongliang faint dead away!

"Bro Liang, what's wrong with you?" Gao Xiaofu blinked, not understanding what had gotten into Zhong Yongliang.

"Xiaofu, in a moment, you're going to complete this task using my slip — you absolutely must complete the mission!" Zhong Yongliang handed the slip to Gao Xiaofu, clapped him on the shoulder, and spoke with earnest gravity.

"Huh?" Gao Xiaofu stared in confusion. "Bro Liang, aren't you going to go plant a kiss on Gu Mengyao?"

"See for yourself," Zhong Yongliang said.

Gao Xiaofu opened the slip Zhong Yongliang had handed him with some puzzlement...
