The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 354
Giya ran after him again. âYou know, itâs going to be difficult for you to notify me when youâre actually getting married. Why donât we exchange contact information to ease that process?â
âThat⦠Well, alright. Let me add you on WeChat. Iâll definitely let you know when it happens!â
Gerald didnât know what else to say.
He couldnât just refuse and turn around to leave. He just wasnât that kind of person. After all, Giya would definitely lose face if he had left without accepting her offer.
So he simply went along and added Giya on his WeChat account.
Of course, Gerald wasnât that narcissistic to believe that such a beautiful goddess would ever like him.
Even after adding her on WeChat, he felt that they wouldnât be talking much with each other anyway.
He tried his best not to think too much about it.
Once the exchange was done, Giya took the bracelet with her as she walked upstairs again. At the time, several of the girls were still doubtful about Geraldâs claims.
âGiya! Giya, he didnât want to take it back?â asked the girls with smiles on their faces as they saw her slowly return to their table.
âHahaha! See, I guessed correctly! Geraldâs absolutely in love with you, Giya! Heâs given you the most precious and valuable thing in his family! That alone is enough to explain everything!â said Tammy confidently.
âThatâs right! The rest of you probably hadnât noticed earlier, but Gerald had been looking at Giya as though he was afraid that she would reject his gift!â
âHey, hey! All of you should know that this kind of jade bracelet is usually given to a familyâs future daughter-in-law! Hahaha! That kidâs really smart!â
The girls continued talking among themselves in glee.
âAlright girls, settle down. Geraldâs not how you guys are imagining him to be like at all. Heâs not a cunning or scheming person. I honestly hope that you girls will stop picking on him all the time in the future!â said Giya with a slightly forced smile on her face.
âOh? Being protective and defensive of Gerald? Giya, donât tell me youâveâ¦â said Tammy as she acted out a look of surprise while looking at Giya.
âIf you spout any more nonsense, then Iâm buying three trays of buns later to stuff them up your foul mouth!â
The girls simply laughed at that and continued chatting.
Gerald on the other hand, couldnât go back to the library. When he arrived there, it was already full.
Seeing nowhere else to go, he sighed before returning to his dormitory to study instead.
He was planning to go out for lunch with Harper and the rest at noon anyway.
Unexpectedly, he received a WeChat message from Giya not too long after.
âSay, Gerald, which cafeteria are you going to be eating at for lunch?â she asked.
âIâm probably leaving the decision to my roommates. Weâll be eating out together. Why?â replied Gerald, slightly surprised by the message.
âOh! Youâre eating out with them? I was initially planning to invite you over to lunch. After all, youâve already helped me twice!â
âTwice?â Gerald scratched the back of his head, confused.
âYes! You carried me to the infirmary the other day, and today, you helped me get rid of that annoying Yacob! Hahaha! He must be feeling extremely embarrassed right now. Hopefully heâll leave me alone now and I can finally have some peace!â
âWell, heâs not a bad person. I do think that he likes you very much.â
â??? What are you implying? Does that mean I have to be his girl? Are you giving us your blessings?â
âNo, I didnât mean it that way!â
âWell, it would be useless even if you did. Iâm unwilling to be with someone that I have no feelings for anyway! By the way, Iâll be at the library later at noon to study. Iâll reserve a seat for you. Why donât you come over and study together later? We can be study companions!â
Gerald stared at his phoneâs screen. He was unsure of how to reply.
At the very least, he was certain that she wasnât interested in him.
However, he couldnât help but feel slightly awkward every time he was around her. He was honestly afraid that he would end up falling for her.
After thinking about it for some time, he felt that it would be better if he stopped doing such things.
Therefore he decided not to reply at all.
He then went downstairs to eat with Harper and the others.
However, he didnât go to the library once his lunch was over. He simply stayed in his dormitory to study.
The afternoon passed by quickly.
Around evening, Giya sent him another message.
âWhy didnât you come? I reserved a good seat for you and Iâve been waiting since half past one for you to come. Are you busy with something else?â
