Love? The Reborn Me Just Wants to Obtain Rewards-Chapter 495 - 222 Forging Alloy Steel

Su Huai didn’t plan to reply to Gu right away, but he also didn’t want to keep chatting with them.

The joy of showing off in public had been felt; listening to the subsequent butt-kissing was optional.

"Okay, that’s enough praising, let’s watch Yu’s interview."

With one sentence, Su Huai brushed off Zhang Ye and the others, ducked back, and then sidestepped Chen Nuanhan: "I need to deal with some messages, lots of classmates are asking about my sudden stage appearance."

"Mhm, mhm."

Chen Nuanhan thought that made perfect sense, so she obediently nodded and started watching Pei Shuyu’s interview with her sisters.

Su Huai really began to reply to the messages from his classmates — Gu Jiuyue was one of those classmates after all, and he never lied.

After careful consideration, the first message was: "If you want to listen, just say so, don’t beat around the bush~~~Next time, I’ll sing just for you."

Inside the villa bedroom, Gu Jiuyue felt a bit embarrassed, biting her lip as she typed: "I do want to listen, you might not know, but I actually also really like playing the piano and singing, and it’s not that I’m complaining you didn’t tell me."

Alright alright, so you’re learning to play pretend now, huh?

Su Huai found it amusing and sent an emoji of a nodding cat.

"Ah, what a coincidence? Can you play this song too?"

"Of course!"

Gu Jiuyue replied instantly, a line per second.

"I learned this song as soon as it was released, I really like it!"

"But I don’t sing it as well as you do."

"How did you practice? Wow, I was literally stunned when I saw you in the video..."

Su Huai really wanted to find out who the little spy was, so he casually asked: "Did you watch the video live, or did someone else record it and send it to you?"

Gu Jiuyue replied with four words: "I won’t tell you!"

Hey, quite vigilant.

Su Huai chuckled, then smoothly moved on from the topic: "Actually, I didn’t really practice much, it’s just natural talent, I suppose."

When it comes to shamelessness, Su Huai was Brother Yi of the entire Capital Normal University.

But Gu Jiuyue believed it.

Not only did she believe it, but she also greatly admired Su Huai.

"Wow! Huaihuai you’re really amazing! But what shocked me the most is how low-key you are, you’ve hidden it so well? You never let slip a single word in class...

Normally she couldn’t type so much in a day, so her excitement was evident now.

Su Huai shamelessly replied: "I’m naturally not one to show off, these days isn’t it popular to talk about ’hidden gem boys’? There’ll be more occasions for you to be surprised in the future!"

Big-headed!

Gu Jiuyue giggled and chuckled, well aware that Su Huai was showing off, yet she couldn’t feel any dislike.

It felt even more endearing, in fact.

Boasting without any real skills behind it is downright vile, but a bit of showing off after performing exceptionally well is adorable.

Forget it, everyone, don’t believe it. When you like someone, everything they do seems right, and everything about them seems great; there’s really no reason to it.

"Huaihuai... so why did you suddenly stop being low-key today?"

Shoot, crap!

Gou Huai’s heart lurched, internally cursing this wasn’t good.

Every man frequently grilled by his girlfriend could understand that on the surface, she’s asking "why", but what she’s really asking is "for whom".

In other words, it’s possible she’s guessing it’s about Chen Nuanhan.

Gu had always been so clever, but the former her never would’ve asked, and now she’d started to probe him.

Su Huai wasn’t troubled by the question at hand, but the tendency for her to become increasingly jealous.

Ah, it turns out stories are all lies...

Stuff like unjealous ice queens and grand noblewomen not caring, is all nonsense.

The only possible reason a woman doesn’t mind her man dallying with others outside is — she doesn’t love you.

Conversely, the more Gu Jiuyue cared, the more it proved that her favorability was deepening.

It was a happy conundrum, though at this moment, it was mostly conundrum.

Su Huai thought for a bit and decided to tell the truth.

"Actually, I was originally talking business with Pei Shuyu, and then Chu Changkuo and Wu Tianyou hoisted me onto the stage, trying to see me make a fool of myself, but you saw the outcome.

I barely made an effort, and I reached the limit for this segment.

Guess what happened when I got backstage?"

All absolute truths, Su Huai’s honesty was unquestionable.

Gu Jiuyue was indeed drawn in and asked: "They got scared by you?"

"They ran off!"

Gu sent a shocked cat emoji: "Ah? They were that bad?"

"Yes! If I hadn’t seen your messages, I’d still be looking for them. How dare they set me up, they purely deserved a beating."

The focus of this message wasn’t on Kuokuo and Youyou; they were just a means to an end.

The real importance was to convey that "you matter more"; because of you, bro gave up chasing after those two worthless guys, touched, right?

Gu Jiuyue’s mood did improve, and she playfully suggested to Su Huai.

"Don’t you and that Chu whatever live in the same dormitory? Deal with him when you get back, smack him around a couple of times, if anything happens, I’ll back you up~~~"

Clearly joking, but also clearly revealing an unabashed bias.

Gou Huai, you’re really asking for it...

Su Huai internally cursed himself as a scoundrel, yet his fingers uncontrollably typed: "Forget it, I’d rather spend that time seeing you! Too bad, I have to catch tonight’s flight back to Hangzhou to get some work done..."

The promise was made; she brightened up a bit more.

"It’s okay, work is important, and besides, I can return to campus soon anyway~~~"

Su Huai was skeptical: "How soon is your soon specifically?"

It wasn’t really skepticism, but a subtle way of expressing he missed her.

"Three days!"

After sending the text, Gu Jiuyue added guiltily: "Five days at most!"
