The Heartthrob Became My Boyfriend

Chapter 192: Chapter 191: No Plan Beats a Plan?

Gu Huai’s dark pupils seemed to flicker with fire as he looked towards the girl and slowly began, “President Qi, I am quite curious. With the high starting point I’ve given you, what kind of man… would catch your eye?”

Three thousand acres of Potato fields!

Professor Shen personally cooking for her!

Professor Shen’s signature…

Isn’t that a high enough starting point?

Qi Yue: “…!”

Upon hearing this, Qi Yue choked on her own saliva and nearly suffocated.

How could you have the nerve to ask!

It’s you yourself!!!

This is killing me!

Taking her to see three thousand acres of Potato fields, letting her enjoy so many girlfriend benefits, standing side by side with her on the field…

Little by little, you made her take notice, and also take heart…

Qi Yue muttered in a pitiable whisper, “Who says no? I didn’t expect my standards to be this high… What a sin! How am I supposed to catch up!”

Gu Huai’s eyes twinkled faintly, seemingly asking casually, “How do you plan to pursue him?”

“Plan?” Qi Yue was stunned for a moment, feeling quite bewildered and unsure as she began, “I just realized I like him… so I haven’t thought about what comes next… But… if it were me… I’d probably go for a simple and crude confession…”

Gu Huai was silent for a moment before speaking indifferently, “That does suit your personality.”

Qi Yue helplessly said, “I’m an impatient person, I can’t hide what’s on my mind! If I don’t say it, I might die of suffocation!”

As Qi Yue spoke, her eyes suddenly glimmered as she looked at Gu Huai. She walked over to the water dispenser, poured him a cup of water, and then inquired with utmost sincerity, “Great god, what’s a suitable way to confess? You’re so smart, do you have any surefire methods you could teach me?”

Gu Huai took the cup of water from Qi Yue and lowered his gaze, “There are countless methods, but matters of the heart are not like formulas, where if the process and method are right, you’re guaranteed the correct result. It could even turn out the complete opposite, entirely counterproductive.”

Qi Yue listened in confusion, the great god’s words truly were profound; why couldn’t she understand them?

However, she guessed that Gu Huai wasn’t very adept at it either; after all, he was likely the one who gets pursued. How could he possibly know how to chase after someone…

Perhaps it was better to stick to her own methods!

Qi Yue grumbled in complaint, “Great god, do you know why I talked more with my sister’s matchmaking date during dinner that night? It’s unfair to me. It’s not that I’m interested in Chen Jing, it’s because he brought up a topic related to the person I like… I couldn’t help but engage in more conversation…”

Gu Huai was silent for a moment, “You like him that much?”

Qi Yue nodded vigorously, “Yes, he’s a very, very good and very, very gentle, very, very outstanding person…”

Gu Huai pinched the bridge of his nose, looking somewhat unwell, “Is that so?”

Qi Yue, once she started talking about that ‘person she liked,’ couldn’t stop herself, “The Chen Jing that my sister went on a blind date with is from NT Research Institute. I heard from Chen Jing that the person I like is really incredible. The NT Research Institute offered him a sky-high invitation to join them, but he hasn’t agreed yet, saying he has several projects in the A University laboratory that aren’t finished yet. Finally, the director of NT institute personally made three visits to invite him… Not only is he extremely intelligent, but he’s also great at sports. Just ten minutes ago, I just won a city competition gold medal with him in the ten-meter air pistol mixed team event…”

Gu Huai’s hand, which was holding the cup, suddenly tightened, his pale fingers becoming nearly transparent, a clear sign of shock in his eyes. A patch of moisture was on the back of his hand, a small amount of water spilled from the fragile paper cup, trickling down his slender fingers, drop by drop onto the floor…

Qi Yue blinked her eyes, talking while eagerly looking at Gu Huai, stealthily observing his reactions, until she got to the last sentence. Then she coughed lightly, tentatively beginning, “Well… great god… you… you should be able to tell… I’m confessing to you, right?”

Gu Huai: “…”
