Chapter 254: Chapter 253: Already Starting to Miss You
Qi Yue couldn’t help but recall the first time she met Gu Huai, when she had emphatically declared, “Men only slow down my potato planting speed.”
This reversal… it really does seem a bit embarrassing…
But Gu Huai didn’t actually affect her potato planting!
On the contrary, she seemed to have become familiar with him because of the potatoes in the first place…
The three of them were chatting animatedly when Qi Yue’s phone rang—it was Gu Huai calling.

Su Xiaotang urged, “It’s the genius’s call! Pick it up, pick it up!”
Qi Yue, “I have no hands!”
At that moment, Qi Yue had both her hands under a nail dryer, so Song Qiuqiu hurriedly answered the call and held the phone to her ear.
Qi Yue, “Hello, have you reached the dormitory?”
Gu Huai, “Yes, and what about you? What are you doing?”
Qi Yue, “Just chatting with Qiuqiu and Xiao Tang. Xiao Tang insisted on doing my nails!”
Gu Huai, “Will I disturb you guys?”
Being close by, Song Qiuqiu and Su Xiaotang faintly heard Gu Huai’s voice, and both shook their heads vigorously. Su Xiaotang pulled Qi Yue’s hand out, signaling that her time was up.
Qi Yue chuckled, picking up the phone herself, “No worries, it’s already done.”
Not wanting to disturb Su Xiaotang and Song Qiuqiu’s rest, Qi Yue walked out to the balcony with her phone.
Inside, Song Qiuqiu and Su Xiaotang pricked up their ears, but they could only understand the first few sentences of Qi Yue and Gu Huai’s conversation. The rest was incomprehensible to them, like listening to a heavenly script…
Indeed, the romantic exchanges between geniuses are dissimilar to us mere mortals!
Trying to eavesdrop but not understanding a thing…
Before, Qi Yue and Gu Huai’s chats were mostly about potatoes. After confirming their relationship, besides potatoes, they talked even more, from astronomy and geography to history and philosophy—they could chat about anything…
Unknowingly, they had talked for almost two hours.
Realizing it was so late, Qi Yue startled, “Oh my, it’s so late, you should rest early!”
To make time for her, Gu Huai had been working extra hours these past few days. Remembering this, Qi Yue suddenly felt guilty, wondering if she was being too clingy? She would surely disturb him…
“Okay, you should sleep early too…” Over the phone, Gu Huai’s voice paused, then he continued, “When you go to bed… can we not hang up?”
“Ah…?” Qi Yue was stunned.
Gu Huai spoke, “I have to fly to Country Y tomorrow to attend an international seminar. It’s a closed session, and at the very least, I might be away for half a month…”
At this point, Gu Huai’s slightly hoarse voice followed by a helpless chuckle, “What to do… I haven’t even left yet… and I seem to already start missing you…”
Qi Yue, “…!!!”
Qi Yue’s ear pressed against the phone instantly heated up, followed by her cheeks also beginning to grow warm.
Gu Huai, “Is that okay?”
Finally snapping back to reality, Qi Yue hurriedly spoke, “Cough… fine, fine… then… let’s not hang up then…”
…
Back inside.
At this moment, Song Qiuqiu and Su Xiaotang were still stubbornly fighting off sleep, not sleeping until Qi Yue came back in.
Qi Yue, amused, looked at them and quickly preempted their gossip by pointing to her phone, her mouth forming the words to remind them that the call was still going.
Su Xiaotang, with a face choked on dog food, whispered, “Yue Bao! You and the genius keep the call going even while you sleep? Is this the legendary falling asleep listening to each other’s breathing? As a singleton like me, why do I have to witness all this!”
Song Qiuqiu, sorrowfully lowering her voice, told Qi Yue, “Oh my! Yue Bao! Aren’t you being too clingy! I’m telling you, this won’t work! Relationships need to give each other some space, don’t you know that absence makes the heart grow fonder!”
Qi Yue explained, “Uh, it’s not…”
Su Xiaotang sighed, “Oh Qiuqiu, stop blaming Yue Bao. After all, it’s Gu Huai we are talking about! It’s inevitable that Yue Bao is a bit clingy!”
Qi Yue covered the phone’s mouthpiece, “It’s really not my idea… it was the genius who wanted to keep the call going…”
Song Qiuqiu, “…?”
Su Xiaotang, “…???”
