Upon hearing this, Ye Junqing peeked his head out of the window.
Ye Xingguang was about to speak but hesitated, seeing the car speeding up. She could no longer control her conflicted inner self. Frustrated, she asked, âDoes your offer to âgive it a shotâ still count? I took the selfie but didnât post it. What the hell do you mean by that?â
After saying that, she wished she could slap herself twice. She had no dignity left! She was probably the first woman in history to pursue a man so openly. She lost all her face at that moment!
She wished she could just run away or find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
Ye Junqing paused, then smiled, a smile so dazzling, it made the world dim in comparison. But he remained silent, holding out his phone and tapping on the screen.
What does that mean?
Before Ye Xingguang could ask more, the car had already left the hospital.
Ye Xingguang stomped her foot, wishing she could beat her embarrassing self with a brick!
She had made herself this vulnerable, and yet that arrogant man just laughed without saying a word. Fuming, Ye Xingguang returned to her ward.
âYou sent your suitor away?â Bai Lanwu asked.
Ye Xingguang replied listlessly with a muffled âhmmâ.
Seeing her low spirits, Bai Lanwu asked, âWhatâs wrong, missing him already?â
âI donât miss that arrogant jerk at all,â Ye Xingguang defended herself, even though inside, she wished more than anything he would stay with her for a few more days.
âItâs in my bag.â
âOh.â
Ye Xingguang found her phone in her motherâs bag, switched it on, intending to check if she had missed any calls. What she found were dozens of missed calls, WeChat messages, Weibo notifications. What had happened?
Had the world come to an end because she hadnât checked her phone in one day?
She first checked the missed calls. Apart from those from her coworkers and director at the station, they were from her university classmates, even her university advisor had called her. What was going on?
Then she opened WeChat and saw innumerable private messages from her uni mates and work colleagues.
In her university roommatesâ chat group, she saw that in the time she had been away from her phone, her four-member chat group had sent over nine hundred messages. What were they talking about?
Ye Xingguang: âSisters, what are you guys talking about?â
She casually dropped a message in the group, and the group that had been quiet for an hour once again exploded with incoming messages.
âAhhhh! Xingguang, you finally showed up! Why didnât you answer my calls, why didnât you reply to my WeChat? Do you know I was so excited I couldnât sleep all night? You owe me my beauty sleep!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI thought that after you became a Phoenix, youâd forget all about us, your uni roommates with whom you used to eat hot pot. Xingguang, come clean right now. Why did you never tell us that youâre the âCarp Girlâ? OMG!!â
âAnd why did you stop us from cursing Yun Chen and Rebecca Perry on the school forum after they dumped you? Turns out youâve hooked up with the top bachelor Diamond King from the âcommitted bachelorâ rankings! What incredible luck hahaha!â
A buzzing sound rang in Ye Xingguangâs head. Was her identity as âCarp Girlâ revealed by the media? Who was responsible for this outrageous act?
No wonder her phone had exploded.
Despite the buzzing sound in her head, Ye Xingguang didnât forget to rebut: âWhere did you guys see that? Itâs all rumors, pure rumors, none of it is true. When did I ever get that lucky? Donât believe those rumors.â
