The windy rooftop was vast, and Qi Yue felt a fresh night breeze mixed with the scent of grass and wood as soon as she stepped onto it, making the stars above seem within arm’s reach.
“The stars tonight are so beautiful…” Qi Yue couldn’t help but prop up her chin in admiration.
Before, she had thought that she had seen too many such starry skies, even more beautiful ones, and found the stars unimpressive.
But at this moment, it seemed she realized that what mattered wasn’t the stars…
It was…
The person she was star-gazing with…
“Yeah, they are very beautiful,” Gu Huai spoke, his gaze actually directed at the girl beside him.
Qi Yue leaned on the railing, her hair fluttering in the night wind, meeting his gaze with a serious expression, “Big shot, do you know? I’ve seen more beautiful stars, but none are as beautiful as the ones I’ve watched with you. Well, it might be because I watched them with you! But, you’re more beautiful, you are even more beautiful than the stars!”
The girl’s eyes were clear, her gaze free of any impurities, direct and passionate, as if completely unaware of how flirtatious her confession was.
Because to her, what she was saying wasn’t a flirtation—it was simply the truth…
Gu Huai coughed softly, his fingers gripping the railing tightening slightly, as if he was struggling to restrain something, almost not daring to look directly into the girl’s eyes…
The members of the Eating Melon Squad hiding behind the door to the rooftop entrance had varied reactions to what they were overhearing.
Song Qiuqiu’s mouth twitched as she looked away, brainwashing herself repeatedly, “My Yue Bao is not at all brazen, really not at all, not brazen, not brazen…”
Jiang Lang shook Song Qiuqiu’s arm, “Look at yourself, take a look! Look at how Potato here is spellbound by that love potion!”
Song Qiuqiu glared at him, “Look at what! Yue Bao is just telling the truth! Is it so wrong to speak the truth these days?”
Jiang Lang vehemently accused Song Qiuqiu of blatant lies, “Truth? What truth? I’m good-looking too! Why haven’t I ever heard you speak the truth?”
Song Qiuqiu sized him up, “You… good-looking? Okay, fine, you’re good-looking, in a brain-stem missing kind of way!”
Jiang Lang: “The hell! Song Erhuan are you blind?”
Ling Feng: “Stop it, guys, stop it, our position is about to be exposed and stewed into a pot!”
Jiang Lang, peering through the door crack, muttered confidently, “Don’t worry, Old Gu is a double PhD after all, and he certainly isn’t this naive and sweet. Besides, even if he’s never been in a relationship, hasn’t he been pursued before? What big storm hasn’t he faced! He definitely won’t fall for this! With the level of Potato’s cheesy love statements, not to be mean…”
While Jiang Lang was confidently rambling on and on, on the rooftop, Gu Huai, facing the girl’s clear and brilliant eyes, lowered his voice and said softly, “So, President Qi only wants to watch, is that it…?”
Qi Yue: “…”
In an instant, Qi Yue’s mind went blank.
Did the big shot mean the stars, or did he mean himself…
Not good, not good! Is this moving too fast? She shouldn’t be too greedy!
Wait a minute…
Wasn’t she always the one who took the initiative? How come there always seemed to be an illusion that in fact, she was being led forward…oh no, pulled into a mad dash forward?
Jiang Lang: “…”
Ling Feng: “…”
Song Qiuqiu: “…”
Su Xiaotang: “…”
The previously bickering Eating Melon Squad members looked at each other, utterly befuddled, like four stray dogs on a stormy night, pelted head to toe with raindrops and nowhere to call home…
