Chapter 296: Lu Ye’s Rival In Love
Qi Hao had bitten the chopsticks in an instant. The piece of meat held by the chopsticks dropped on the table.
He didn’t even notice it.
However, Qi Hao’s face blushed in the next second. His eyes flashed as he mumbled, “Uncle, what sort of joke is this? How can I like Gu Yan? Pfft, she’s just a bit pretty, a bit good at studying, has a bit of personality, and smiles a bit heroically…”
Qi Hao couldn’t continue anymore.
How could this not be liking someone?
All he said were her good points. If he kept denying it, it would be against his heart.
Qi Hao couldn’t proceed further. In his heart, he became a bit thrilled due to the thought. He took the cup next to him and drank some water, which he didn’t even like. He looked at Principal Gao thereafter.
“Uncle… why can’t I like Gu Yan?”
While the two were talking, Gu Yan and her group had sat down to order.
As they ordered, however, a bit of conflict occurred. Guo Rou wanted to eat something spicy, but Shen Jiayi couldn’t eat such dishes. In the end, Gu Yan decided to get a spicy cooked beef, mild spicy potato strands, fried eggs, and some Mapo tofu.
But then, Guo Rou thought there were too many vegetables in their meal. “Hey, hey, hey, I said I would be treating. We were supposed to be celebrating because you two were fighting for your dreams. How come you only ordered one meat dish?”
“I can’t eat too much meat. I have to maintain my figure.” Gu Yan was much plumper and whiter than when she first left Jialuo. She hadn’t looked in the mirror lately, but she knew she had to keep in shape.
Her exercise routines during these few months in school wouldn’t be as effective as when she was in the special training forces. Girls wanted to look beautiful for those who made them happy. Gu Yan didn’t want Lu Ye to say she became fat after a few months.
Thinking about it, Gu Yan sighed.
No matter which era it was, girls loved being beautiful. Even though she basically experienced two lifetimes, she still cared about this point.
Shen Jiayi nodded. “Yes, the captain often tells us that just because we sing doesn’t mean we don’t need to maintain our figures. Body figures are very important for people involved in arts.”
“I’m am not involved in arts,” Guo Rou sneered and added another meat dish.
This restaurant was prestigious. Every serving was sizeable. Gu Yan had eaten here with Jiang Yue before. The three of them probably couldn’t finish these, but seeing Guo Rou, she said nothing.
It didn’t matter. As long as they were happy, it would be alright.
The three girls conversed as they ate. Gu Yan was surprised they actually managed to finish all the dishes.
Guo Rou wiped her mouth. “Aiya, this restaurant is so nice. Gu Yan, I’m coming for you again next time!”
Gu Yan asked, “Are you planning to visit me or this restaurant?”
“Visit you while eating. Hehe, this pretty girl is quite a delicacy.” Guo Rou was about to flick Gu Yan’s chin. Gu Yan adeptly dodged it.
She joked, “Guo Rou, do you want to be Lu Ye’s rival in love?”
Guo Rou instantly shook her head. “No, no, no, I was just making an innocent joke with you. Even if I was a man, I wouldn’t dare to come after you.”
Demon King Lu was too scary after all!
Guo Rou rejoiced that she was a woman, not a man!
But Shen Jiayi gently added, “You don’t seem like a girl though.”
Guo Rou was taken aback.
“…”
Ouch, even Shen Jiayi was making fun of her!
The three soon laughed.
Just as Gu Yan was saying goodbye to Guo Rou and Shen Jiayi and getting ready to return to school, Qi Hao was walking alone on the road.
