Chapter 24: Chapter 024: Large-Scale Melon-Eating Scene
Gu Huai and Qi Yue were chatting on the tree-lined path of the school, unaware that the group chat for A University was buzzing with excitement.
Somehow, someone had snapped a photo of Gu Huai riding a bicycle with Qi Yue on it, and shared it in the group chat.
Although it was dim at night, one could still vaguely make out that the person riding the bicycle was Gu Huai, but the girl was not very clear.
[Wow! Isn’t that Gu Huai? He’s actually giving a girl a ride on his bike!]
[Impossible! The boss only has studies on his mind, spending all his time on projects. Even within the same college, he’s practically invisible, hardly seen throughout the year. Are you sure you didn’t mistake someone else for him?]
[You might mistake the person, but could you also mistake his ride? I’ve seen the boss on that bike before; there’s no mistaking it!]
[I just want to know who the girl on the boss’s ride is! Does anyone recognize her ah ah ah!]
[The lighting in the pic sucks, can’t see clearly!]
[I don’t believe it! I am not heartbroken! The academic god has dedicated his life to learning, how could he be distracted by women!!!]
[Secretary Wang! One minute! I need all the information on that girl!]
…
While gossip in the school was at its peak.
Song Qiuqiu, who had been laying on her bed as if on her deathbed, suddenly sat up in shock: “What the fuck! Yue Bao???”
Initially, she was just watching the drama unfold online like everyone else, even chiming in a couple of times. She never expected that when she scrolled up to earlier messages and got a clear view of the girl in the photo, it would turn out to be Qi Yue.
Others may not recognize her, but she was very close to Qi Yue and immediately knew it was her, especially with Qi Yue holding the food and milk tea she had brought for her; it couldn’t be mistaken.
Reacting in the same way as Song Qiuqiu were Ling Feng and Jiang Lang who were also in their dorms…
So, when Qi Yue reached the fork in the road and was about to say goodbye to Gu Huai.
Suddenly, three figures dashed towards them from the direction of the boys’ and girls’ dormitories.
Moments later, Ling Feng, Jiang Lang, and Song Qiuqiu all arrived at the same time.
The five of them bumped into each other head-on and stood there, looking at each other in surprise…
Qi Yue: “…?”
Song Qiuqiu: “…???”
Jiang Lang: “…!”
Ling Feng: “…!!!!”
Out of the five, it seemed only Gu Huai maintained a calm demeanor, slightly raising his eyebrows.
Qi Yue, looking at Song Qiuqiu’s shocked expression, then at Jiang Lang and Ling Feng who looked as if “a husband had been caught cheating and they were out to catch the mistress,” was completely puzzled.
Qi Yue: “What is going on…?”
Song Qiuqiu pulled Qi Yue aside and quickly said, “Someone in the school’s main group posted a photo of Gu Huai riding a bicycle with a girl, and everyone is guessing who she might be. I saw the photo and isn’t this you? So, is there anything you need to explain to me? What’s going on between you and the big boss? I had no idea!”
Qi Yue rarely joined group chats. She had joined the school group but had muted the notifications, so she was out of the loop.
“Is this what it’s about…?” Qi Yue looked at Song Qiuqiu incredulously, “Is your waist okay?”
Considering the speed at which she had run over, it seemed she could easily catch another pig without any trouble…
At Qi Yue’s mention, Song Qiuqiu suddenly remembered and started wailing while holding her waist, “Ah ah ah, my waist, it’s finished…”
Qi Yue couldn’t help but laugh and support her, “I can’t even with you. Couldn’t you have waited for me to get back before asking? Why did you have to rush over like this…”
Song Qiuqiu blurted out: “How could I wait! Catching a cheater has to be done on the spot!”
No sooner had she spoken than Ling Feng and Jiang Lang nodded in agreement!
Gu Huai chuckled lightly and spoke leisurely, “Makes sense.”
Qi Yue turned towards Gu Huai with a face full of question marks: “…???”
And why are you joining in?
