Chapter 37: Chapter 037 Long Ti No See
Chu Mufan watched the girl before him with blazing eyes.
Although the girl was dressed very simply, even the plainest attire couldn’t disguise her features, and what was most extraordinary was that the clarity in her eyes seed never to have changed but had beco even more dazzling, making it hard for anyone to shift their gaze away.
“It’s been a long ti; I really didn’t expect to et you here…” Chu Mufan said.
“You…” Chu Mufan’s sudden appearance had left Qi Yue sowhat dazed.
Just as she was about to speak, she noticed a young girl accompanying Chu Mufan.
The girl affectionately looped her arm through his, and at this mont, turned to Qi Yue with a look of delighted surprise, interrupting what Qi Yue was about to say, “So you are Qi Yue!”
The girl sized up Qi Yue from head to toe, her eyes carrying an imperceptible probing and caution but, nevertheless, her face was full of smiles, “I’ve heard so much about you! Mufan often ntions you, saying you’re a very, very good friend of his…”
After finishing speaking, the girl laughed, “Ah! Right, I almost forgot to introduce myself, my na is Xue ngqian, and I’m Mufan’s girlfriend!”
The sudden appearance of Chu Mufan and the unexpectedly warm greeting from this unfamiliar girl left Qi Yue montarily unsure of how to react.
Thus, she simply nodded lightly, “Hello.”
Qi Yue wasn’t sure if it was her imagination, but this girl’s gaze toward her seed constantly probing and evaluative, and there was also a hint of subtle caution.
The earlier remark, first calling her Chu Mufan’s “friend,” and then imdiately introducing herself as Chu Mufan’s “girlfriend,” seed sowhat like a declaration of ownership.
As Qi Yue pondered this, wondering if she was overthinking, she heard the girl continue very enthusiastically, “Mufan must have ntioned to you; we went to study in the United States together!”
Chu Mufan and this girl had gone abroad to study together?
She had never heard him ntion this…
Could it be that Chu Mufan was already with this girl back then?
If that were the case, wouldn’t it have put her in an awkward position?
Chu Mufan seed to notice her emotions and explained, “My father t Uncle Xue while doing business, and when he found out that Qianqian was going to be at the sa school as , he asked to look after her.”
Xue ngqian tightened her grip on Chu Mufan’s arm, “Mufan is super considerate; he took great care of . If not for him, I really couldn’t have managed in a foreign country! Later, we just naturally ca together!”
Hearing this, Qi Yue felt sowhat relieved.
If these two had been together before she confessed her feelings, that would have been overly vexing.
Rembering the girl’s earlier question and also to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings, Qi Yue directly spoke up, “I’m sorry, I’m not really aware of these things; I haven’t kept in touch with Chu Mufan since we graduated from high school.”
Hearing this, Xue ngqian seed to breathe a sigh of relief, and her smile appeared more genuine, “I see!”
While speaking, the girl looked sowhat reproachfully at Chu Mufan, “Mufan, really, how could you just lose contact with such a good classmate like that?”
As if suddenly rembering sothing, Xue ngqian turned to Qi Yue and said, “Ah! Right, a few days ago I went with Mufan to a friend’s gathering, and I rember hearing one of Mufan’s classmates with the surna Chu say… he said that back then… it seed like you had chased him… and even confessed your feelings to him…”
While speaking, the girl closely observed Qi Yue’s expression.
