Chapter 143: He Doesn't Want Me Anymore

Yang Tianxing had originally intended to use a "scorched-earth tactic" to cut off anyone else's thoughts of pursuing Tan Zhizhi, but in the end, it flopped, and feeling that he had lost face, he picked up Xie Silu and left the Jiaotong University auditorium directly.

To the other students, this was just a small interlude during the rehearsal, and Tan Zhizhi did not accept that bouquet of flowers either; she asked the female host to help accept it on her behalf, which both looked after the face of the senior who sent the flowers and ensured she herself did not have too deep an entanglement.

Her roommate Tian Jiayi was also watching the rehearsal below, and upon spotting Yang Tianxing, she was also puzzled: "Isn't this the boy we had hot pot with last time?"

After the rehearsal ended, Tian Jiayi said to Tan Zhizhi: "Little Zhiliao, where are we going to eat at noon?"

"Let's go back to the dormitory to change clothes first, then we'll go out to eat."

Tan Zhizhi said with a smile: "It's not easy for the little girl to come to Jiaotong University for once, we can't just let her eat at the cafeteria."

"Oh, don't tell me that's really your daughter?"

Tian Jiayi said jokingly.

Tan Zhizhi nodded with a straight face: "That's right, that's right, I'll have such a cute daughter in the future, I'll kiss her drool off every day."

"Who was the boy who brought the little girl over today?"

"A high school classmate, not very close."

………………

After returning to the dormitory and changing clothes, only then did Tan Zhizhi remember she needed to make a phone call to Yang Tianxing, and she hesitated as she picked up her phone and flipped to the "Yang Tianxing" entry, thinking to herself that she would never make this call again in the future.

"Jiayi and I will be downstairs in a moment, we'll take Silu to get something to eat."

Little Zhiliao didn't mention Yang Tianxing at all in the phone call, as if she didn't care whether he ate or not.

Yang Tianxing didn't mind either, and with a grin, he carried Xie Silu to the back seat: "Two big sisters are coming over in a moment, one is Little Zhiliao, whom you know, and the other is a sister you don't know; who do you want to sit with?"

"Little Zhiliao sister!"

Xie Silu raised both hands and shouted the answer.

"Wrong!"

Yang Tianxing kept a straight face: "Little Zhiliao sister belongs to brother; if you dare to snatch her, not only will there be no ice cream, but I'll also hand your math problems over to your dad."

Hearing this, Xie Silu crossed her arms and pretended to be angry.

Before long, the two girls walked out of the school gate; Yang Tianxing had already parked the car, and Little Zhiliao had originally intended to go to the back row, but Xie Silu specifically pulled Tian Jiayi and said: "Sister, you come in and sit."

Yang Tianxing also chimed in from the side: "It's the middle of summer, it's really too crowded for three people in the back."

Little Zhiliao glanced at him and walked silently to the front passenger seat; the legroom after sitting down was just right, as if it had been specifically adjusted for her.

Yang Tianxing reached out his hand: "I'll help you fasten your seatbelt."

Little Zhiliao gently blocked him: "Thanks, I'll do it myself."

Yang Tianxing coughed, feeling somewhat awkward; in the past, it was always Tan Zhizhi who forced him to help her fasten her seatbelt.

"Where to?"

Yang Tianxing asked.

"The dessert shop under the city wall."

After Little Zhiliao finished speaking, she turned her head to tease Xie Silu, and the two had nothing more to say.

Tian Jiayi hugged Xie Silu and asked with a smile: "You usually call all the sisters 'mom' when you see them, why did you call me 'sister' just now?"

"That's because brother let..."

Xie Silu was just about to tell the truth when Yang Tianxing, who was sitting in the front, suddenly interrupted: "What kind of activity is your Jiaotong University holding? The auditorium looks very lively."

Tian Jiayi explained: "The freshman gala, when is yours at the Finance Institute?"

"Ours is a bit later; by the way, who was that boy who sent the flowers?"

Yang Tianxing asked in a casual, chatty tone.

"A rich senior who has dated many girlfriends; I heard he originally had a partner, but after seeing Little Zhiliao, he immediately dumped his partner to pursue Little Zhiliao..."

Chatting like this, Tian Jiayi also forgot about the previous question, but Little Zhiliao had not forgotten.

Xie Silu suddenly calling her "mom" was definitely instigated by someone;

Including her pulling Tian Jiayi to sit in the back row, leaving the front passenger seat for her;

Even the fact that this passenger seat had been adjusted;

If this were three months ago, Tan Zhizhi would definitely have been very moved; these details and arrangements all reflected someone's thoughtfulness.

But now, as long as she thought of another beautiful and gentle face, her heart felt waves of grievance.

"I have already left, why do you still keep chasing after me?"

Little Zhiliao thought to herself, then turned her head to look out the window without speaking.

Tian Jiayi was playing a hand-clapping game with Xie Silu in the back row, occasionally sizing up the two in the front.

Yang Tianxing seemed to be driving with intense focus, yet he nearly ran a red light.

Among the four, the only truly innocent one was the little chubby girl, Xie Silu.

While eating dessert, the two adults and one child were chatting, and Yang Tianxing interjected: "Rocket 101 Express is preparing to expand its scale, but I've encountered some bottleneck issues and would like to consult someone."

"Rocket 101?"

Tian Jiayi repeated the name: "I think I've heard my classmates mention it; this is a company that picks up and delivers packages, right? I heard it was founded by a college student."

"That's right, I'm the founder," Yang Tianxing said.

Tian Jiayi was quite surprised: "So you're actually an entrepreneurial boss."

"What kind of boss am I? I'm about to fall into a quagmire now, and I'm just looking to ask a high-achieving student from the Jiaotong University Law School to help provide some reference."

Next, Yang Tianxing laid out the problems Rocket 101 Express was facing regarding its plans for development but lack of legal support.

"The market for Rocket 101 is college students nationwide; if this market can be captured, it actually has a lot of potential, but the responsibilities and obligations of the part-time college students, as well as the reasonable division of commissions, all need to be carefully defined..."

Yang Tianxing finished speaking with great enthusiasm and then looked at Tan Zhizhi with an expectant face; he naturally hoped that Tan Zhizhi would take it on.

However, Tan Zhizhi was only preoccupied with feeding dessert to Xie Silu and seemed completely uninterested, so Yang Tianxing had no choice but to speak up.

"Little Zhiliao, you're a business law major, could you help me look into this?"

Tan Zhizhi put down the cake in her hand, thought for a moment, and said, "Why not let Xiaoyi help you? I have to be busy with the rehearsal for the school's freshman gala recently, and since I just transferred majors, I'm not very familiar with some of the knowledge points."

Yang Tianxing felt a bit disappointed inside, but he didn't say much more, turning his head to discuss the details and content with Tian Jiayi.

"I've talked about these things with several law students, but I wasn't very satisfied with the documents they produced."

Yang Tianxing looked at the fair-faced Tian Jiayi: "This is a paid service; once adopted, I can hire you as the legal consultant for Rocket 101."

Tian Jiayi felt a bit embarrassed: "Let's try it first; actually, I don't have any experience."

Hearing her say this, Yang Tianxing knew for sure that it was a lost cause again.

If one only held the mindset of just giving it a try, without putting oneself in Yang Tianxing's shoes, there would definitely be major loopholes.

"It seems I can only look for a law firm."

Yang Tianxing thought to himself, and after finishing the meal, he took Xie Silu and left, while Tan Zhizhi and Tian Jiayi returned to Jiaotong University.

However, after returning to the dormitory, Tan Zhizhi sat in front of the dorm for a while, suddenly took out a few reference books, and then bit a hair tie to tie up her hair.

Tian Jiayi was also very strange: "What's wrong, Little Zhiliao? You usually play two songs as soon as you get back to the dorm."

Tan Zhizhi opened her laptop: "Jiayi, I'll take over the drafting of that legal regulation Yang Tianxing mentioned, but don't tell him; when the time comes, just give it to him in your name."

Tian Jiayi was stunned for a moment and immediately asked: "Little Zhiliao, tell me the truth, what exactly is Yang Tianxing to you?"

"Yang Tianxing, huh."

Tan Zhizhi smiled: "He is the only boy I have liked in these 19 years."

"It's a pity, he doesn't want me anymore."
