Chapter 117 Graduate
Finally! Exams are over for Zhang Liling!!!
p
Zhang Liling was one of the most excited persons on earth currently after dropping her pen. But she made sure to maintain her image till she was outside the school premises, which was harder to achieve.
Finally outside, she screamed on top of her lungs in excitement.
Tungmei chuckled hard. "Why are you screaming on the road? People are going to think that you have gone mad."
Zhang Liling turned to her to say, "This is the best opportunity to scream because I have been holding it in for quite long."
There was a full blown smile on her face while saying that. The excitement was obvious, and could not be concealed.
"Why didn\'t you do that inside the School?" Tungmei asked with a teasing smile, despite knowing the answer.
"Why don\'t you first tell me why you stopped screaming earlier and I would give you a response to your question?" Zhang Liling asked with a smirk.
"Forget it!" Tungmei said and chuckled hard.
"Finally my brain and body can rest. This is a good thing."
Tungmei took small steps with that cheeky smile on her face. "Now, we are free! There is going to be a celebration this evening. It\'s organized by the class rep, do you want to come?"
"Yeah, I saw that in the group chat. You sound like you want to go..." Zhang Liling probed instead of replying to the question.
Tungmei shrugged, "Well, I have nothing to do, and I feel that I should celebrate this milestone today. It will be fun with most of our coursemates present."
Zhang Liling thought about it and would have loved to go, but she doubted whether Mr. Fang would let her go out, when knowing that she would drink.
Suddenly, her mood quietened down.
"You are not going? What would you be doing alone at your place? If you are scared of getting drunk, then you shouldn\'t really worry because I will be there to make sure you don\'t drink more than 3 glasses." Tungmei said, trying to convince her.
Zhang Liling looked at her and asked, "Do I ever listen to you, especially when it comes to drinking?"
Thinking hard about it, Zhang Liling was indeed stubborn and doesn\'t listen when she really wanted to do something.
Still, she said to her, "Not tonight. You will have no choice otherwise you can\'t go for parties anymore. You need to maintain your good image in public, and be crazy as you want indoors. I\'m sure someone will not hesitate to film you when you are drunk."
"Yeah, that\'s true. I have a few enemies in our set. Anyway, I will go home and think about it. I will let you know of whatever decision I come to." Zhang Liling nodded.
She was going to speak to Mr. Fang about it. If he allowed her, then she would go. But if he doesn\'t, which she thinks that he was likely to do, she would accept her fate.
She wouldn\'t blame him since she had the guts to kiss him the last time.
Probably, he would be scared of what her next action would be this time around.
"You have to come. I\'m sure Zhang Mingyu will be out having fun with his friends tonight. Did you find out what happened to his car?" Tungmei probed.
Just like Zhang Liling, she noticed that he no longer came to school with his sports car.
Withiut thinking hard, Zhang Liling came up with a response. "Maybe he crashed into someone and was banned from driving, or his car was taken from him. My Dad looks like someone that can do that although he didn\'t buy the car for him."
But she was wrong, because Shi Wenqian was the one that took the car from him, but she wouldn\'t know this since she was no longer staying with them.
It would not be a surprise to her if she finds out that she was wrong, because knowing her stepmother\'s competitive spirit, she can do anything.
"You are probably right. I just admire your stepmother\'s hardwork. She is very good at covering things up." Tungmei said with a thumbs up.
Zhang Liling smiled while thinking that it was her normal way of life.
"Alright, I\'m leaving now before the sun gets any hotter." She said and waved at her, before flagging a cab down just at the right moment.
"See you this evening at the club!" Tungmei said as she watched her get into her ride.
Zhang Liling just smiled and said before the driver drive off. "Don\'t forget to unblock your father now!"
"I will!" Tungmei agreed while waving at her.
With a smile, she went to the bus station to wait for a bus.

A few hours ago...
Chuanli was almost getting frustrated after failing to reach Mr. Fang on phone after several attempts.
He ended up asking himself this question, "Did he block me?"
Thinking that was possible, he scoffed. "If you can\'t take jokes, how will you find humour to attract a good woman and not a gold-digger?"
"Miss Zhang, I think you should really think twice about being with this kind of man."
After venting his anger, he released a long sigh before punching on another contact. If he couldn\'t reach Mr. Fang, then he would reach out to Bolin.
It took several rings before Bolin answered his call.
"Dr. Li." Bolin\'s polite tone rang out as soon as he picked the call.
He left his phone in his office before going into Mr. Fang\'s office to give him some documents. By the time he returned, he saw his phone ringing.
"Are you aware that your Boss blocked me?" Chuanli asked instead of going straight to the point to state the reason for reaching out to him.
"Mr. Fang blocked you?" This question came as a surprise to Bolin, and he had to ask for confirmation.
What could make Mr. Fang to block his Doctor? This could only mean the latter offended him.
"Do you think I would lie about that? Bingwen couldn\'t take a simple joke and blocked my contact, and I\'m just finding out after failing to reach him now."
