Chapter 350: 350: No Jealousy Allowed

(Seventh update. Yet another seven-chapter day, if the book friends enjoyed it, show some support. There will be multiple updates tomorrow too.)

After returning to his room in a huff, Yang Qingyin also stomped back to her room in a fit of pique.

Once back in her room, she didn’t go straight to wash up but instead turned on the TV in her room and replayed the news she had just watched.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

After watching it twice, she finally turned off the TV.

Still not going to wash up, she took out her phone and sent Luo Ziling a message.

“Most Beautiful Lift Hero comrade, you’ve become an internet sensation, do you feel proud?”

However, Luo Ziling didn’t reply immediately, and Yang Qingyin, having waited a while, couldn’t help but feel very frustrated.

After tossing her phone aside, she went to the bathroom to wash up.

When she returned from washing up, she saw that a message had come in. It was from Luo Ziling, so she hurriedly opened it.

“Senior sister, I still don’t know what’s going on! What’s this Most Beautiful Lift Hero?” Luo Ziling’s message was followed by several puzzled emojis.

“You’ve become famous. Television and the internet are all discussing how you saved someone at the mall tonight.” After sending this message, Yang Qingyin waited somewhat anxiously for Luo Ziling to reply.

“Oh, so it’s about that.” Luo Ziling’s response came swiftly.

Following that, there was another message, this time a voice message.

After opening the voice message sent by Luo Ziling, his quite magnetic voice came through immediately, “Today, I ran into Ouyang Huihui at the school’s gate. She said she was going to buy some Mid-Autumn gifts for Sir Ouyang, and since I was planning to visit Sir Ouyang during Mid-Autumn Festival, I went with her. I didn’t expect that just after entering the mall, I saw a child falling down, and I instinctively rushed to catch him. I was almost too late, and the child fell right in front of me. Dragged along by the child’s weight, I also fell to the ground and got a few minor injuries.”

Another voice message followed, “Senior sister, are you jealous that I went shopping with Ouyang Huihui?”

Having hit the nail on the head, Yang Qingyin didn’t know how to respond. She typed a line of text and then deleted it.

At that moment, another message from Luo Ziling came in, “Senior sister, don’t be jealous, or you’ll lose value, yo!”

Luo Ziling’s playful message, filled with emojis, immediately dissipated much of Yang Qingyin’s frustration.

“Who’s jealous of you? You’re not mine, why would I be jealous?” She sent a reply, huffing as she typed.

And then sent another message straight away, “The TV said that your girlfriend is very beautiful, and that you left the mall hand in hand.”

“No way? I think I was just worried about being surrounded by onlookers, so I took Ouyang Huihui’s hand and told her to leave.” After sending this explanation, Luo Ziling quickly sent another message, “Senior sister, I’m injured again, it hurts so badly. Catching a child weighing tens of pounds, falling from such a height, felt like a large rock smashing down on me, and the wounds that were almost healed have split open again, it’s so annoying.”

“Ah? Really?” Upon seeing Luo Ziling’s message, Yang Qingyin immediately sent a video call request.

But the video didn’t connect, with an indication that Luo Ziling’s signal was poor.

Yang Qingyin had no choice but to make a phone call.

The call connected right away.

“Underclassman, is the injury serious?” Yang Qingyin asked with concern, “Have you reapplied medicine? Or visited the hospital to take a look?”

“I’ve applied some medicine, it should be fine,” Luo Ziling, touched by Yang Qingyin’s concern, recounted the night’s events again, of course omitting the part about going to a hotel room with Ouyang Huihui to inspect and treat the injury. After talking about the night’s events, he added, “Tomorrow, I plan to visit Sir Ouyang, as it’s my first Mid-Autumn Festival here. In the afternoon, I’ll go see my mom, have a chat with her, and spend Mid-Autumn with her. Mid-Autumn is a festival of reunion, and finally, my mom and I can spend it together, I’m very happy.”

After talking so much with Luo Ziling, the frustration that had built up from the argument with Yang Yunlin and the gloom caused by Ouyang Huihui had completely dissipated, and Yang Qingyin’s mood had become much more cheerful.

Hearing what Luo Ziling said, Yang Qingyin also immediately replied with a smile, “Then I have to congratulate you, you can finally eat mooncakes and admire the moon with your mom. Please say hello to Mrs. Ling for me and thank her for her teachings.”

“Why are you being so formal?” Luo Ziling thought of something and asked curiously, “By the way, you’ve gone home, haven’t you? Did anything happen?”

After thinking for a while, Yang Qingyin gently said, “I was receiving ideological education up until your news started.”

“No way?” Luo Ziling was surprised, “What did you guys talk about?”

“I’ll tell you in person someday,” Yang Qingyin, whose mood had just improved, felt it sour again at the mention of this matter, and her spirits were somewhat dampened.

Luo Ziling immediately noticed this and hurriedly changed the subject, “I actually made it onto TV? I didn’t see any cameras at the time, I’ll go watch the replay later. By the way, which channel was it on?”

“Yanjing TV Channel One,” Yang Qingyin also immediately laughed, “Someone must have taken your picture, plus there are surveillance videos in the vicinity. I think, by tomorrow, your information might be dug up by everyone. You should be prepared to be a celebrity. You’ve done something full of positive energy, and you’re pretty handsome, the media will certainly promote you heavily. Beware that a beautiful female reporter who comes to interview you might take a fancy to you!”

After a playful joke, Yang Qingyin felt relaxed once again.

“Alright, I’ll take my senior sister’s advice and get ready to be an internet sensation, and I’ll surely resist any temptation from pretty reporters.”

After chatting for a while, Yang Qingyin, fearing her parents would discover her and cause unhappiness, ended the call.

After hanging up with Yang Qingyin, Luo Ziling noticed several messages and a few missed calls on his cell phone.

Seeing that the missed calls were from Ling Ruonan, he hurriedly called back.

The phone was picked up even before the ringing sounded.

“Ling’er, the person reported in the news today, the ‘Most Beautiful Lift Hero,’ is it you?” Ling Ruonan asked about this matter immediately, “Did you save the child that fell?”

“Yes,” Luo Ziling admitted somewhat sheepishly, “I didn’t think at all at the time, I just rushed up, and fortunately, I was in time, or I really would have been so disappointed.”

“You did well,” Ling Ruonan sincerely praised, then asked, “Did you get hurt again?”

“It’s just a minor injury, nothing serious, you don’t have to worry, Mom,” Luo Ziling laughed heartily and also explained what had happened that evening.

When Ling Ruonan heard that Luo Ziling wanted to visit Ouyang Lingyun, she fully agreed and asked Luo Ziling to send her regards to Sir Ouyang on her behalf.

After hanging up the phone, Luo Ziling saw a lot of WeChat messages, all inquiring about the lifting and rescue incident that evening.

There were too many people asking, and Luo Ziling wasn’t interested in replying.

However, when he saw the text message from Ouyang Feifei, he opened it up to read.

“You went back and ended up going on a date with Huihui?”

“Not a date, just shopping together; I wanted to visit Sir Ouyang.”

But Luo Ziling didn’t wait for a reply from Ouyang Feifei.

Ouyang Feifei was intentionally not replying, also unsure what to say, as she was feeling quite depressed.
