Moving On from the Tsundere, I Choose the Perfect Sweetheart

Chapter 201: Chapter 201: Holding Hands? Everyone’s Shock

Seeing Su Qinghe’s face turn bright red, Gu Yifan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

”It’s not like I haven’t seen you before. What are you blushing for?”

He said irritably.

Su Qinghe: ”...”

She couldn’t help but give Gu Yifan a huge eye-roll before turning away to get back to what she was doing. She didn’t want to deal with this jerk at all.

When Gu Yifan saw she was ignoring him, he felt a bit bored. He touched the tip of his nose, then turned to go wash up himself.

...

「7:30 in the morning.」

Gu Yifan and Su Qinghe sat at the dining table, slowly eating breakfast.

It had to be said, Su Qinghe’s cooking skills were improving by the day. Her simple soup dumplings and preserved egg and pork congee were countless times more delicious than anything you could buy outside.

But it made sense. Places outside were always stingy with their ingredients, whereas Su Qinghe used only the best. There was simply no comparison.

After breakfast, the two of them headed to the main athletic field for their military training.

Today was the thirteenth day of military training.

Only two days remained of the half-month-long military training.

Today, all the freshmen from the School of Economics and Management were gathered on the main athletic field for a joint drill, preparing for the military training review in two days’ time.

As luck would have it, the formation for Gu Yifan’s finance major was right next to the one for Su Qinghe’s financial management major. So, Gu Yifan planned to walk Su Qinghe over to her class’s spot first before returning to his own.

After more than ten days of military training, most of the classmates had become familiar with one another.

Furthermore, Su Qinghe had claimed the top spot on the freshman school beauty ranking, which drew even more attention to her.

Pretty much everyone knew that Financial Management Class 1 had a stunningly beautiful girl.

The boys in the nearby formations were all itching for a chance to hit on Su Qinghe, to say nothing of the boys in her own class.

Ever since Luo Chengjie tried to hit on her, a number of boys would come by almost every day to chat her up, offer her water, and generally try to win her favor.

However, without exception, Su Qinghe rejected all of them.

Plus, the fiercely protective Bao Baijie was always by Su Qinghe’s side. Every time one of those boys came over, she would intercept them and chew them out so thoroughly they’d have to retreat in defeat.

Now, the boys from the surrounding classes all knew that Su School Beauty had a tigress by her side.

Afraid that Gu Yifan might get angry or jealous about all the guys hitting on her, Su Qinghe took the initiative to tell him about it every day.

Gu Yifan didn’t really think much of it. As long as those guys didn’t try anything out of line, he had no reason to be angry.

After all, with Su Qinghe’s looks, it was perfectly normal for her to have admirers and get hit on every day.

Besides, he had plenty of girls coming up to ask for his contact information every day, too.

’Sigh.’

’What can you do?’

’Such is the burden of being too handsome.’

’Who else can I blame but my parents for giving me this ridiculously handsome face?’

...

「8:20 AM.」

After Gu Yifan parked, he took Su Qinghe’s hand, and they walked straight toward the main athletic field.

By now, the field was already packed with a dense crowd.

It seemed like everyone from the School of Economics and Management was there.

”Hey, have you guys seen the school beauty ranking on the university forum?”

”Yeah, I saw it. Not gonna lie, there are a ton of beauties in this year’s freshman class!”

”For real!”

”Chen Churan from the School of Physics used to be the school beauty at my high school, No. 18 High. She’s seriously gorgeous in person. I never thought she’d only rank tenth, I really didn’t see that coming!”

”Holy shit!”

”Bro, what a coincidence! You went to No. 18 High, too?”

”Damn!”

”Not gonna lie, that Chen Churan really is gorgeous. Totally my type!”

”Chen Churan is pretty, sure, but it’s no surprise she lost. The girls ranked ahead of her are on a whole other level!”

”Exactly!”

”Especially Su Qinghe, who’s number one on the list. When I first saw her the other day, I was totally blown away!”

”Damn!”

”Is it even possible for someone that beautiful to exist in the mortal world?”

”To look that beautiful in a completely makeup-free ID photo... she’s on another level!”

”That Goddess Su is definitely gorgeous, but I’m more of a fan of Han Ning from the School of Foreign Languages. I saw her in the cafeteria the other day. She was wearing a white chiffon dress, and I was just... completely mesmerized.”

”Yeah, Han School Beauty’s looks are undeniable! And her whole vibe is totally that of a runaway Disney princess!”

”If you ask me, she should be number one!”

”Hah, once you see the girls in first and second place, you’ll understand why Han Ning is only number three.”

”It’s true. The girl in first, Su Qinghe... you have to admit, Goddess Su is flawlessly perfect.”

”Yup!”

”I agree!”

”Goddess Su totally deserves first place!”

”Er... aren’t you guys exaggerating? Is she really that incredible?”

”I’ll cut my dick off if I’m lying. If you don’t believe me, go ask someone who’s seen Goddess Su, or go take a look for yourself over at the Financial Management Class 1 section during the next break!”

...

Groups of boys, some who knew each other and some who didn’t, were all buzzing about the school beauty ranking that had recently blown up on the Jinling University forums.

Meanwhile, Gu Yifan was standing at the edge of the field, scanning the area for his and Su Qinghe’s class formations.

He quickly spotted the banner for Su Qinghe’s class held up high and turned to her. ”Found them. They’re on the southwest side of the main stage. Let’s go.”

”Mm-hmm.”

Su Qinghe nodded obediently.

She had long since gotten used to Gu Yifan holding her hand.

Even though the field was crowded, she only felt a little shy; it wasn’t as if she didn’t dare to hold his hand.

’After all, we’re in college now, and he’s my boyfriend. Holding hands is completely normal!’

However, the moment the two of them appeared on the main athletic field, they instantly caused a commotion.

It couldn’t be helped.

Both of them were so stunningly good-looking it was hard for them not to attract attention.

”Holy shit!”

”Isn’t that Su School Beauty?”

Someone shouted, and immediately, all eyes turned to focus on the two figures at the edge of the field.

”Whoa... it really is her!”

”Huh?”

”Who’s that guy next to Su School Beauty?”

”The fuck?!”

”They’re holding hands?!”

”Holy crap! The number one on the freshman school beauty list, Su Qinghe, has a boyfriend?!”

...

Gu Yifan and Su Qinghe had just stepped onto the field when they were noticed. A crowd of people began pointing in their direction, whispering amongst themselves.

Feeling the burning intensity of everyone’s gazes...

WHOOSH.

Su Qinghe’s face instantly flushed crimson.

Already a bit of a social introvert, she grew extremely self-conscious under all the stares, and her entire body tensed with nervousness...
