Chapter 2201 - WeChat

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The young boy felt a bit confused by what had happened.

Reflexively he held on tightly to the phone in his pocket. “What do you want to do?”

The noon sun was a bit scorching. Quan Jingyi’s eyes narrowed slightly. He looked at the young boy with a half-hearted smile. He seemed indifferent and unconcerned when he asked, “Will you or will you not give it to me?”

The little boy stared at Quan Jingyi’s demeanor. He didn’t want to say anything, but the look on Quan Jingyi’s face inadvertently reminded him of Quan Jingyi’s brazen demand. His body tensed up. Words of refusal were at the tip of his tongue, but he refrained from saying them out loud.

The young boy squeezed his pocket with the palm of his hand. Turning his head away, he finally took out the phone and stretched out his hand. “Just tell me what you want to do!”

Quan Jingyi gazed at him. “What are you afraid of? I only want to add you on WeChat,” he said casually.

The young boy didn’t believe him. He looked up at the big tree from which Quan Jingyi had jumped down just now. “Did you see everything?” he asked, his face flushing.

Quan Jingyi narrowed his gaze. “See what? You confessed to a girl here and didn’t even have the guts to say so clearly. Instead, you had to say it was a love letter from someone else?”

The young boy’s face turned red.

Quan Jingyi sneered. “Don’t worry. Li Jianyue is so dim-witted that she won’t be able to figure out that the love letter was from you.”

It would’ve been better if Quan Jingyi hadn’t said anything. But his remarks made the young boy a little worried immediately.

Yes, Li Jianyue appeared a bit simpleminded. Quan Jingyi may be right. It might be difficult for her to guess that the person was him.

While he was still in shock, he heard Quan Jingyi suddenly say, “Hey.”

The young boy immediately snapped back to reality and glanced up. “Huh?”

Quan Jingyi shook the phone in front of the young boy’s eyes and said, “Unlock it.”

“Oh-oh.”

He obediently placed his finger on the phone. After unlocking it, the young boy saw Quan Jingyi standing casually, his body tilted and head bowed, tap on his phone.

Quan Jingyi was clicking on WeChat.

No sooner had he taken the phone, a new friend notification popped up.

[Beautiful Bohemian girl [Little Sun]]: We are already friends. Come and chat!

Quan Jingyi narrowed his eyes. He looked up from the phone and at the sheepishly looking boy in front of him.

The young boy wore a pair of thin-wire glasses. He immediately lowered his head when he saw Quan Jingyi was staring at him.

After about a dozen seconds, Quan Jingyi threw the phone back at the young boy.

He checked it immediately. There were two new additions and notifications.

Before the young boy could react, Quan Jingyi had turned around and prepared to leave.

“Umm...” The young boy looked at Quan Jingyi. “Did you add Li Jianyue on WeChat?” he asked somewhat reluctantly.

Quan Jingyi said arrogantly without looking back, “You don’t know how to read the records yourself?”

Hearing this, the young boy immediately bowed his head.

He noticed that the two new friend notifications had the standard greeting, “We are already friends. Come and chat!”

He heaved a sigh of relief and put the phone back in his pocket.

The young boy had yet to get thoroughly familiar with WeChat. Most people of his era typically used QQ.

He didn’t even know that WeChat also had a single-message delete function. By the time he found that out, it was already too late.

When he was back home in the evening, the young boy happily took out his phone. He saw that Li Jianyue had posted something in her friends group.

[Beautiful Bohemian girl [Little Sun]]: Wow, my mother is cooking again. How delicious~

The posting was a nine-picture collage of an exquisite home-cooked meal. The last picture was a selfie of a young girl with a kitten’s expression. She looked adorable.

She sent it to him less than a minute ago. He immediately clicked the like button.

In the next second, a new notification popped out.

Hint: Quan Jingyi also liked the post.
