Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed-Chapter 241 - 129: Love Set for Three Lives, Little Moon’s Strategy Plan Officially Launches (Two in One, Subscription Request)_2
Zhong Tingyue listened to Li Yuan’s convincing explanation and smiled radiantly. A strange glint appeared in her beautiful eyes as she huffed coquettishly, "Hmph, I suppose the excuse you fabricated is somewhat reasonable."
Li Yuan cried out in feigned injustice, looking at Zhong Tingyue affectionately. "Little Moon, there isn’t a single lie in anything I’ve said to you."
A bright light sparkled in Zhong Tingyue’s eyes, and a sweet smile spread across her face. "Mmm, I believe you, Li Yuan. My QQ is 5469... Don’t forget it this time, okay?"
Li Yuan laughed heartily, patting his chest and swearing earnestly, "Don’t worry! Even if I were reincarnated, I’d still remember it in my next life."
Zhong Tingyue rolled her eyes at him and giggled under her breath. "Hmph, Senior Li Yuan, are you planning to pursue me in your next life too?"
Li Yuan caught the hidden meaning in her words and replied decisively, "Ever since I met you in my past life, my heart has been set on you for three lifetimes. In Huaxia mythology, there’s a divine artifact called the Three Lives Stone. I’ve already carved both of our names on it, so we are destined for each other across three lives."
Listening to Li Yuan’s "passionate confession," Zhong Tingyue’s heart fluttered. She tucked a strand of her shoulder-length hair behind her ear, her cheeks flushing red as she murmured shyly, "Then you’ll have to chase me again in this life, okay?"
Li Yuan’s smile vanished. He suddenly grabbed her small hand, placed it on his chest, and replied solemnly, "Little Moon, for three lives and three worlds, ten miles of peach blossoms will bloom only for you."
"Mmm."
Zhong Tingyue met Li Yuan’s gaze, her beautiful eyes shimmering with emotion as if holding endless thoughts. Her luscious lips parted slightly, and at that moment, her heart began to pound...
The two stood face to face. As Li Yuan watched her shy expression, he slowly leaned in.
Zhong Tingyue’s body trembled slightly. As Li Yuan drew closer, her heart began to race, and her dazzling eyes fluttered. Just as she felt his breath on her skin, she squeezed her eyes shut, waiting for the moment to arrive...
Seeing that she neither dodged nor resisted, and had even closed her eyes, Li Yuan hesitated no more.
He leaned in and gently pressed his lips against hers...
At that moment, their lips met. It was a clumsy yet tender kiss, passionate and fervent as they explored one another...
*Tsk, tsk. Young people these days, embracing and passionately kissing in broad daylight. Public morals are really going downhill...*
*That young couple is a perfect match. Hehe, I’ll sneak a picture and post it on the forums when I get to work. Another chance to farm some engagement points...*
*That girl has a great figure, and her skin is so fair. Judging from her profile, she must be gorgeous. They look like college students. Man, I envy them. I miss being young...*
Hearing the whispers from the surrounding crowd, Zhong Tingyue’s face turned crimson. She gave his lip a little bite before pushing him away, shyly lowering her head and hiding behind his back.
Li Yuan licked his lips, still tasting Zhong Tingyue’s sweetness, a flavor he savored. Although they had kissed twice before, this time felt completely different...
Li Yuan thought excitedly, The trumpet of victory has sounded! Operation Woo Little Moon, Step One: a resounding success...
「」
While waiting for the edits from Starry Sky, Li Yuan calmly took out his phone and searched for Zhong Tingyue’s QQ number. The profile that appeared had the nickname "Reflection in the Water."
Li Yuan’s heart stirred as he fell into thought. Online nicknames can sometimes reflect a person’s character, and Zhong Tingyue’s "Reflection in the Water" was a perfect example. After what happened that night, its meaning was self-evident...
His mind raced, but he also felt a pang of anxiety. Now Xia Zhijin, Jiang Zhiyu, Bai Weixi, and Zhong Tingyue had all added him on QQ. Having the four of them in one place was a ticking time bomb.
He muttered to himself, I’m a little scared. Is my QQ space going to become a new battlefield? Imagine the girls spying on each other, maybe even adding each other as friends. Wouldn’t Zhong Tingyue be in for a pleasant surprise if she saw that she and Bai Weixi are my mutual friends?
Li Yuan regretted not having registered a few alternate accounts beforehand. He could have used a different one for each girl and avoided this incredibly awkward situation.
Back then, it was only Bai Weixi. I never expected to attract so many other girls so soon after starting university. What’s done is done. I’ll just have to take things one step at a time.
Li Yuan looked at Zhong Tingyue and held up his phone. "Little Moon, I sent you a request. Go ahead and accept it."
Zhong Tingyue, still blushing slightly, looked at her phone and saw the friend request from "Life Like Summer Flowers." She blinked her beautiful eyes and teased with a smile, "Big Writer Li, your space must be filled with confessions from other girls, right?"
Li Yuan froze. How the hell did she guess that? She’s spot-on.
He shrugged and laughed loudly. "Hehe, I can’t help it. I’m just too outstanding, so countless female readers flock to me like moths to a flame."
Zhong Tingyue pursed her lips to hide a smile. "Then I suppose I’m quite honored to be destined with Big Writer Li for three lifetimes. It seems I’ll have plenty of rivals in the future."
"Right, Li Yuan?"
Li Yuan chuckled. "Little Moon, do you like to read ’Dream of the Red Chamber’? Are you a fan of Sister Lin?"
Zhong Tingyue sniffed softly and stared at him. "Why do you ask?"
Li Yuan smiled and replied, "Because you always seem to enjoy digging at me."
"I’m not digging at you; I’m stating facts. Look, I had to ask you out several times before you finally agreed to have dinner with me."
