146 Infinite Embarrassnt

No one responded to Song Fan's question. She stared at Xu Yuan's face in disbelief, never expecting to encounter him under these circumstances.

When she had attempted to steal the Tear of the Ocean, she had seen Xu Yuan. At that ti, she assud they would never cross paths again. Now, it was evident that he was with this group and was a mber of her team.

Xu Yuan gazed at the person before him and ventured, "You're Sunflower?"

Song Fan felt like running away in this incredibly awkward situation. It was a unique kind of embarrassnt – stealing soone's property and thinking you'd never see them again, only to et face-to-face later.

Song Fan recognized Xu Yuan, but he didn't know that Sunflower was Tu Mi. Xu Yuan grinned and remarked, "I never expected you to be such a beauty. Why is everyone standing? Please, have a seat."

With that, Song Fan was gently pushed into her chair. Xu Yuan even handed her the nu with enthusiasm and added, "Feel free to order whatever you like. It's my treat today, so no need to be shy."

Song Fan hadn't forgotten her earlier question and continued, "You didn't answer before. Is Bluesea Gu Chen?"

Qi Shuo nodded, struggling to find words. "Yes, that's correct."

Xu Yuan, still puzzled, questioned, "What's wrong with Gu Chen being Bluesea? Sunflower, you know Gu Chen too?"

Xiao Lei hastily dragged the talkative Xu Yuan aside and whispered, "Sunflower is Song Fan."

This revelation was a complete surprise to Xu Yuan, who had not expected this twist. His eyes widened as he stamred, "So you and Gu Chen are..."

Xiao Lei swiftly covered Xu Yuan's mouth, recognizing his tendency to speak impulsively. He couldn't let Xu Yuan say sothing that shouldn't be disclosed.

Xu Yuan had been on the verge of asking about two of them playing with them and why Song Fan hadn't ntioned her true identity earlier, but the words remained unspoken. Instead, he struggled to pry open Xiao Lei's hand.

"Don't speak thoughtlessly. Even though Sunflower is Song Fan, she probably doesn't know that Bluesea is Gu Chen. She seed just as surprised as us when she found out," Xiao Lei clarified.

Xu Yuan fell silent after hearing Xiao Lei's explanation. Once Xiao Lei released his hand, he quickly inquired, "Is Gu Chen not here yet?"

"It should be soon. Considering the ti, his eting should have ended about ten minutes ago," Xia Rui observed, checking his watch.

Song Fan abruptly stood up and said, "Then I'll go back first."

Qi Shuo, who stood by the door, swiftly blocked her path. "Don't go, Gu Chen isn't here yet. We're all teammates, so we should et."

Their curiosity about the relationship between Gu Chen and Song Fan was piqued. They had tried to extract information from Gu Chen in the past, but to no avail. Now, knowing that Sunflower was, in fact, Song Fan, their curiosity had reached its peak. They couldn't let Song Fan leave early today; they needed answers.

Qi Shuo signaled Xiao Lei, who promptly approached and chid in, "The food hasn't even arrived yet; you can't leave now. Miss Song, I never imagined you'd be such a formidable gar. Your actions that day will go down in gaming history."

He invited Song Fan to return to her seat as he continued to talk about the ga. The others joined in, praising Song Fan's superb skills and the thrilling battle they had witnessed. They were astonished by how she had managed to win even while being disadvantaged.

Although Song Fan was pleased with their complints, she couldn't help but grow anxious when she considered Gu Chen's imminent arrival. She suggested, "Let's discuss another ti. I just rembered I have sothing to attend to at ho."

Her reluctance to stay wasn't because she was afraid of Gu Chen; it was that she had regarded Bluesea as her confidant in the ga. Now that she was inford that this person was Gu Chen, soone she least wanted to associate with, she found it difficult to accept.

Xu Yuan promptly changed the subject. "Miss Song, why did you initially reject my friend request and even attack ?"

Song Fan smiled and explained, "I didn't want to form a team for the mission, so I refused to add anyone as a friend. I declined your requests several tis, but you kept sending them, so I had no choice but to attack you."

"But why did you accept Gu Chen's friend request?" Xu Yuan inquired with a hint of frustration.

Song Fan shook her head. "I didn't even know he was Gu Chen."

"But you added him as a friend," Xu Yuan persisted, sowhat vexed.

Song Fan truthfully replied, "I encountered him in a new ga map, and I thought his gaming skills were impressive. So, I added him as a friend to team up for missions."

Xu Yuan placed his hands on his hips and playfully protested, "So, it's because I didn't demonstrate my skills well? You really didn't realize he was Gu Chen?"

Song Fan felt a growing urgency and responded, "If I had known he was Gu Chen, I would never have added him as a friend."
