Chapter 1188: 1188

“Bai Lan . ” Gu Mengmeng called out . She let go of Snakel and trotted over to hold onto Bai Lan’s arm with an obliging smile .

“Tell me, which one is he . ” Bai Lan rudely pointed at the basketball team members who were now all standing in a row .

Gu Mengmeng knew Bai Lan was asking which one was her boyfriend . She blushed and pulled Bai Lan back a couple of steps before turning around to look at Snakel . “This is my boyfriend Ah Kel . This is my bosom friend Bai Lan . ”

Bai Lan was momentarily stunned by the sight of Snakel . She then pulled Gu Mengmeng to the side . “Girl, apart from his looks, everything about him is wrong . How did you fall for the likes of him?”

The veins on Snakel’s forehead jumped . He had lived two lifetimes and this was the first time he had heard himself criticized in this manner .

Gu Mengmeng broke out in a nervous sweat at Bai Lan’s words . She shook her head . “No, Ah Kel is a very good person . He treats me very well . ”

“Good my ass!” Bai Lan retorted . “The whole school knows what a girl magnet he is . Getting together with him is like stirring up a hornet’s nest! The school forum incident two days ago was caused by Mo Beibei because she was jealous of you two, right? Let me tell you, you are such a timid girl—those crazy lascivious girls will gobble you up when they see you with him . Further, who doesn’t know he is just a block of ancient ice . Boring and unromantic, he’s so prim and proper that he could be a monk if he just shaved his head . You are not some White Bone Demon, why must you get involved with a Tang Sanzhang?”

Bai Lan pulled Gu Mengmeng back to stand before the basketball team members . “Let me tell you, girl . If it was him, I rather you choose a first love from this bunch of fellows . At least if they dare to bully you, I can still help you break their legs . ”

Snakel snatched over Gu Mengmeng from Bai Lan in a flash . His eyes shot venom as he glared at Bai Lan with such malevolence that the sky was in danger of being swallowed .

Gu Mengmeng was placed in a terribly awkward position . She gave Snakel a gentle shove . “Don’t be like that . Bai Lan is saying such things because she doesn’t know you . I will talk to her nicely . Ah, don’t be angry . ”

Bai Lan pointed out . “See, you have just started a relationship with him and you already need to coax him . Will you let him to treat you like garbage in future?”

Gu Mengmeng’s face flinched in exasperation as she tugged at Bai Lan’s hand . She shot a look at Snakel . “Ah Kel, our hostel rules are that the boyfriend must treat everyone to drinks on the first meeting . Can you go and get some, please?”

Snakel was unwilling to leave Gu Mengmeng’s side for even one second . But he knew this rule was not something she had just conjured up at the spur of the moment . He wished to gain the approval of the people around her . Although this Bai Lan had badmouthed him so badly, she was still someone Gu Mengmeng cared about . And so he was willing to endure .

Nodding, Snakel shot Zhan Jin Cheng a look, who automatically herded the entire team over to the Starbucks opposite the amusement park . They bought caramel macchiatos for everyone before heading back—to see the bunch of girls now chatting and giggling . The atmosphere had relaxed and become much more amiable .

Snakel handed a caramel macchiato over to Gu Mengmeng . “Here, you have this cup . I had them add extra caramel for you . ”

Gu Mengmeng shot Bai Lan a “see?” look . Bai Lan nodded reluctantly and raised her own caramel macchiato to clink it against Gu Mengmeng’s cup . Bai Lan then glanced at Snakel before clinking her own cup against his—indicating her approval of Snakel being Gu Mengmeng’s boyfriend .
