Chapter 41: Chapter 041 I Have No Beef with the Great God
Chu Mufan’s expression seemed to lighten up when he heard this, and he turned to Qi Yue, “Are you guys here to fence? Want to have a match? I haven’t practiced fencing with you for a long time…”
Qi Yue had been itching to fence, but meeting these two had really killed the mood, so she directly waved her hand and said, “No, I was just passing by to take a look. It’s getting late today, let’s do it next time.”
Chu Mufan wanted to say something more, but Qi Yue had already stood up.
After leaving the fencing gym.
Qi Yue held the sugar figurine that Gu Huai had queued up to buy, feeling a warmth in her heart, “That…thanks for earlier…and for the sugar figurine too…”
“Don’t mention it. I was in a bit of a bind on the subway before, and President Qi helped me out. Besides, I accepted a gift from President Qi,” Gu Huai said with a smile, feeling for the small hair tie on his wrist.
“Cough, still, thank you. Otherwise, it would’ve indeed been quite awkward. I feel like Miss Xue was worried that I might still be pining for Chu Mufan…” Qi Yue said helplessly.
Gu Huai’s eyebrows lifted slightly, “Oh? Are you pining?”
Qi Yue immediately raised an eyebrow, “It’s been the second year since Li Chun; who would still be thinking about that summer!”
Gu Huai chuckled, “President Qi is generous.”
Qi Yue happily accepted the compliment, “Of course I am!”
Although…when she suddenly ran into Chu Mufan earlier, there was certainly a bit of sourness in her heart. But probably because Gu Huai appeared just in time, that slight sourness hadn’t had the chance to spread and had already dissipated…
She was genuinely grateful to Gu Huai for making her feel less embarrassed in that situation…
…
A University, girls’ dormitory.
When Qi Yue returned, Su Xiaotang had also come back from her competition.
As soon as she saw Qi Yue, Su Xiaotang immediately flaunted her trophy, “Yue Bao is back! Look! The empire I’ve conquered for you!”
Qi Yue looked at Su Xiaotang’s sugar art competition trophy, surprised, “Wow! First place! My darling, you’re so amazing!”
Su Xiaotang blinked, “No matter how awesome I am, I’m not as awesome as you! You actually turned down the scholar god’s kiss!!!”
Qi Yue choked and coughed, “Uh, how did you know…”
Song Qiuqiu popped her head up from her bed, “I have already had a deep talk with Xiao Tang!”
The corner of Qi Yue’s mouth twitched slightly, “Just gossip…and you went ahead with a ‘deep talk’…”
Su Xiaotang’s eyes shone as she stared at Qi Yue, “Yes, yes, gossip! Bring out the fresh gossip! Qiuqiu said you went on a date with the big shot! How was the date with the big shot today? Any sparks flying?”
Before Qi Yue could speak, Song Qiuqiu yawned disinterestedly, “I didn’t say it was a date. She was just delivering a thank you gift. As for her going on a date… she might as well go blind, it’s not like her eyes are of any use…”
“True, she only has eyes for Potato, truly a waste of natural beauty!” Su Xiaotang said, shaking her head.
Qi Yue had no comeback for her roommates’ comments, and finally said slowly, “Although I don’t have any gossip with the ‘big god’, there’s other gossip. You sure you don’t want to hear?”
Upon hearing this, Song Qiuqiu and Su Xiaotang immediately moved their stools in unison and sat down in front of Qi Yue.
Song Qiuqiu: “What gossip?”
Su Xiaotang: “What gossip?”
Qi Yue: “…”
Qi Yue was speechless, then began to vent about the encounter with Chu Mufan and his girlfriend she had today.
