Chapter 136: Chapter 135: Take a look?
Qi Yue dialed the number, and to everyone’s surprise, it was Gu Huai’s voice on the other end!
The people in the room looked at Qi Yue, who was making the call on her phone, then at Gu Huai, who was answering with a raised hand, all with confused faces.
Song Qiuqiu was the first to exclaim, “What the heck! What’s going on? Was Qi Yue calling the Great God’s number???”
Su Xiaotang also looked shocked, “That’s wrong! Isn’t the contact supposed to start with the letter D?”
The others present also chimed in bewildered, “Yeah, Great God’s surname is Gu, so it should start with the letter G, right!”
Ling Feng, Jiang Lang, Song Qiuqiu, Su Xiaotang, and a few other girls huddled closer to see Qi Yue’s phone screen.
...
Then, they saw the contact on Qi Yue’s screen was named: The Lord’s magnificent radiance.
When everyone saw Qi Yue’s contact name, they all exclaimed in amazement, “Is that even possible???”
Ling Feng was also stunned and said, “No wonder she said she didn’t need to put on speaker, she was waiting here for me!”
Jiang Lang looked at Ling Feng with a serious face, “Ling Feng! You’d better come clean with me!”
Ling Feng, with a puzzled face: “Come clean about what?”
Jiang Lang: “Of course about how much bribe you’ve taken from Potato!”
Ling Feng: “Come on! Who took a bribe from her!”
Jiang Lang: “How else could it be such a coincidence?”
Ling Feng: “You ask me, who do I ask?”
…
Qi Yue, holding the phone that was connected, looked at Gu Huai sitting beside her taking the call and felt that this whole situation was just too…
Just too redundant…
By now, the people in the room had already started to egg them on.
“Confess! Confess! Confess!”
“Ahhh, I’m so jealous! I want to confess to the Great God too, but I don’t have the guts! But if it’s a game, it’s different ah! Even though the Great God wouldn’t agree! But it’s still like fulfilling a dream!”
“Pfft, it’s just pitiful for the Great God. Others play a game, he gets shot for no reason, and has to play the tool-man!”
…
Qi Yue mumbled awkwardly, “So, how exactly does one, uh, confess…”
Ling Feng looked at Qi Yue, speechless, then said, “No way! You don’t even know that?”
Ling Feng’s eyes swiveled, and he started egging Qi Yue on, “Hey, I’ll teach you. You just say it was love at first sight, a long-conceived plan, the drinker’s intention is not in the wine…”
Jiang Lang chuckled, “Right! Just tell the truth, that’s all!”
Seeing Ling Feng and Jiang Lang setting up a trap for Qi Yue, Song Qiuqiu couldn’t stand it and was determined to defend Qi Yue’s integrity, “What do you mean ‘just tell the truth?’ Don’t just say anything! Our Yue Bao definitely doesn’t!”
Su Xiaotang chimed in, “Have you guys conspired together, with the purpose of tricking us into going to the school’s rooftop?”
Then, Gu Huai, who had been quiet all this time, looked at Qi Yue and casually reminded, “President Qi, how did you confess last time? Maybe take that as a reference?”
Qi Yue’s mouth twitched slightly, “Last time…”
Last time she confessed, she spent several nights drafting, writing a script, a process as intense as preparing for a college entrance composition exam.
She remembered, Chu Mufan’s expression seemed not surprised at all, he said, “Qi Yue, I like you too, you are a very important friend to me.”
I like you, but just as a friend.
Back then, when she heard Chu Mufan’s gentle rejection, to say it didn’t hurt at all would be impossible.
It was probably because Chu Mufan had given her too many false impressions, making her believe he was also interested in her.
Even the “I like you too” in the first half of Chu Mufan’s sentence gave her a fleeting hope.
Until his subsequent complete cut-off from contact, time finally, little by little, wore away her girlish sentiments…
