Moving On from the Tsundere, I Choose the Perfect Sweetheart

Chapter 189: Chapter 189: Give it up, Chu Xiaomeng, you have no chance left

”Su Hanhan~”

At the sound of the voice, Su Qinghe, who had her head lowered, felt her eyes brighten.

She whipped her head around and saw Gu Yifan standing under the shade of a nearby tree, looking at her with a smile.

A sweet smile couldn’t help but spread across her face.

That brilliant smile seemed to drain the color from the rest of the world!

The other girls present also instinctively turned their heads when they heard the voice.

A chiseled, ridiculously handsome face appeared before them.

’He’s so handsome!’

This was the first thought that popped into the minds of the girls present.

”It’s him?!”

Bao Baijie, the first to react, blurted it out instinctively.

Hearing Bao Baijie, the other girls realized it too. They had seen Gu Yifan before.

That’s right!

They had seen him on the stairs the night of the class meeting.

At the time, the girls had been completely stunned by Gu Yifan’s god-like looks!

Chu Xiaomeng, in particular, had wanted to run up and ask for his contact information.

But after a moment’s hesitation, Gu Yifan had vanished at the turn of the stairs.

To think they’d meet again now!

And... it looked like he was here for Su Qinghe?

A wave of shock went through the girls.

”Er...”

Seeing that the girls standing next to Su Qinghe seemed to recognize him, Gu Yifan was a little surprised.

’I don’t even know these girls!’

Shaking his head, he walked over to Su Qinghe.

”Hanhan, and these ladies are...?”

”Ah?”

Su Qinghe finally snapped back to reality—her classmates were still there!

In an instant, her face flushed a deep crimson, and even the exposed skin on her neck turned a shade of pink.

She was so shy she didn’t know what to do.

Gu Yifan noticed her nervousness and gently took her small hand.

He patted the back of her hand, and Su Qinghe instantly seemed to find her anchor, relaxing slightly. The blush on her cheeks, however, remained just as prominent.

The girls present took in the entire scene.

A flicker of surprise passed through their eyes, but they quickly came to terms with it.

It made sense.

Su Qinghe was so beautiful; it was only natural for her to have such a handsome boyfriend.

Still, a hint of disappointment couldn’t help but flash through their hearts.

Sigh...

’There go my hopes of bagging a handsome guy!’

Chu Xiaomeng, in particular, was a complete mess.

Just two days ago, she had been thinking about getting Gu Yifan’s contact information.

’I almost became a homewrecker, trying to steal my classmate’s boyfriend!’

The thought made her feel incredibly awkward.

Of course, if Gu Yifan knew what she was thinking right now, he’d definitely tell her she was overthinking things.

Even if she had come up to ask for his contact information that day, Gu Yifan wouldn’t have given her the time of day.

So!

How could there be any talk of interfering or being a homewrecker?

”Ahem.”

Seeing the girls staring at him with various expressions, Gu Yifan gave a soft cough, which finally brought them back to their senses.

”Um... you ladies must be Qinghe’s classmates, right? Hello, I’m Gu Yifan, Qinghe’s boyfriend.”

Gu Yifan smiled slightly, speaking in a very generous and direct manner.

When Su Qinghe heard Gu Yifan introduce himself as her boyfriend, her face, which had just started to return to normal, instantly turned red again!

The other girls didn’t fare much better than Su Qinghe. Hearing Gu Yifan call them ”ladies,” their faces flushed, and they felt a little giddy.

Bao Baijie, however, was mostly unaffected. She addressed Gu Yifan with poise, ”Hello, my name is Bao Baijie. I’m one of Qinghe’s classmates.”

”Hm?”

A flicker of surprise flashed in Gu Yifan’s eyes, but it was so fleeting that no one noticed.

’So this is the legendary Bao Baijie!’

’I finally get to meet her in person!’

’I have to say, that name is really... hmm, quite saucy!’

Gu Yifan thought to himself.

On the surface, however, his expression remained normal. He smiled slightly at Bao Baijie and said, ”Hello, Classmate Bao. Qinghe has mentioned you before. It’s nice to meet you.”

”Qinghe mentioned me?”

Bao Baijie was taken aback for a moment and glanced instinctively at Su Qinghe, but she didn’t dwell on it.

Seeing her classmates still swooning, Bao Baijie gave a helpless, fake cough to get their attention.

She even tugged on the sleeve of Chu Xiaomeng, who was standing beside her. Exasperated, she gritted her teeth and whispered, ”My dear girl, can you stop swooning? He’s looking right at us!”

”Ah~”

At her words, Chu Xiaomeng’s face turned beet red. She kept her head down, not daring to look at Gu Yifan, and mumbled shyly, ”H-hello... I’m Chu Xiaomeng.”

Seeing this, the other girls also introduced themselves.

They weren’t as embarrassed as Chu Xiaomeng, however. After all, while they were also amazed by Gu Yifan’s good looks, they weren’t the ones who had wanted to run up and ask for his number that day, so it was normal for them to be a bit more composed.

After the round of introductions, everyone was now acquainted.

After a bit more small talk, Gu Yifan noticed the girls seemed a little reserved with him around, so he took Su Qinghe and left.

Watching the two of them leave, the girls who remained all had complex expressions.

”What a perfect couple!”

one of the girls couldn’t help but sigh.

”Yeah!”

”Qinghe and Classmate Gu look so good together!”

Luo Sisi chimed in.

”Definitely!”

”Classmate Gu is very handsome. In terms of looks, he’s definitely a match for Qinghe!”

Bao Baijie nodded.

”Um... don’t you guys think Classmate Gu’s name sounds a little familiar?”

Just then, Chu Xiaomeng spoke up quietly from the side.

”Hm?”

Hearing this, the other girls couldn’t help but turn to look at her.

Bao Baijie frowned first and said, ”Xiaomeng, you don’t still have fantasies about Classmate Gu, do you?”

”Yeah, Xiaomeng, Classmate Gu is Qinghe’s boyfriend. Don’t do anything rash!”

”That’s right! We can’t be the kind of people who knowingly become a homewrecker!”

”Yeah, Xiaomeng, you don’t have a chance anymore. Don’t mess things up!”

One after another, the girls started trying to talk some sense into her.

”Uh...”

Chu Xiaomeng looked completely baffled.

’Wait!’

’I don’t think I said anything, did I?’

...

”Su Hanhan~”

In the car, Gu Yifan spoke as he helped Su Qinghe with her seatbelt.

”Hm?”

Su Qinghe turned to him, looking a little puzzled.

Her expression had returned to normal by now, and her earlier nervousness was gone.

”How was military training this morning?”

”Was it exhausting?”

Gu Yifan asked as he started driving.
