The Heartthrob Became My Boyfriend

Chapter 29: Chapter 029: Want to Marry

The next morning.

Qi Yue hardly slept all night and yawned repeatedly after getting up.

Song Qiuqiu looked at her haggard appearance, feeling so annoyed that her teeth itched. “Yue Bao! Look at those dark circles. You didn’t spend all night thinking about Chu Mufan, did you?”

Although Qi Yue hadn’t added Chu Mufan, she was still worried about Qi Yue being affected.

Last night, she had even posted a message on social media to vent about Chu Mufan:

[Some people, I sincerely advise you to retake nine years of compulsory education when you return to the country. Don’t harass others at will. Don’t you understand basic manners? Disappearing when you say so, returning when you say so, who do you think you are? Such an audacious face, ignorance knows no bounds!]

Below that was a comment from Jiang Lang: [Pfft, Wu Huan, whoever offended you is really unfortunate!]

At that moment, Qi Yue, with her messy hair, looked confusedly at the excited Song Qiuqiu, “Huh? Why would I be thinking about him?”

Song Qiuqiu was also puzzled by her response: “Huh? You weren’t thinking about him… then why such heavy dark circles?”

Qi Yue stretched lazily: “I was thinking about Gu Huai…”

“Excuse me…??? What did you say?” Song Qiuqiu thought she had heard wrong.

Qi Yue sighed, “Didn’t I send the materials to Gu Huai the night before last? I’m waiting for a reply, worried whether I’ll get a spot to visit…”

Song Qiuqiu took a deep breath to calm herself, rubbed Qi Yue’s head, and smiled, “Hehe, sorry Bao, I was just worrying unnecessarily!!!”

“Qiuqiu, what if he’s too busy and forgets?” Qi Yue was almost pulling her hair out in worry.

“The guy is indeed very busy, but given his character, he wouldn’t go back on his word if he promised you…”

“But what if? What if?” Qi Yue looked eagerly at Song Qiuqiu, “Should I make my presence felt? No! That might annoy Gu Huai if it’s too much! But what if he forgets…” @@novelbin@@

Song Qiuqiu, overwhelmed, covered her head with a blanket to block out the chatter, “You’re just like Fan Jin who became obsessed with winning the imperial exams! No, wrong! Like a girl hopelessly in love!”

Last night when Chu Mufan came knocking again, she had anticipated a million possibilities, afraid that Qi Yue might soften her heart and get trapped by love. She never imagined this possibility…

All she could think about now was Potato!

While Qi Yue was “tormented by love,” a WeChat voice call request suddenly popped up.

It was from Gu Huai…

“It’s Po… Potato!!!”

Upon seeing the screen, Qi Yue immediately got up and, without thinking, quickly accepted the call, “Hello!”

Gu Huai probably didn’t expect her to answer so swiftly and paused for a moment.

Then, from the other end of the phone came a voice as clear and soothing as spring water, “Good morning, did I wake you up?”

“No, no! You didn’t wake me up! I was already awake!”

“I have some news for you, which I think you’d want to know right away.”

Gu Huai had news for her?

Could it be…

“What news?” Qi Yue asked, suppressing her expectant emotions and cautiously inquired.

Gu Huai didn’t keep her in suspense and simply said, “The visiting spot is set, you can go.”

At that moment, in Qi Yue’s mind, Gu Huai seemed to be surrounded by a halo, his entire being shimmering.

“Really, I can really go for the visit?” Qi Yue hadn’t expected it to go so smoothly, especially since that three-thousand-acre land was still in the experimental phase, and it wasn’t easy for outsiders to visit.

“Yes, Professor Shen appreciates some of your viewpoints too, and he is eager to have more researchers participate in the research. If he isn’t too busy, you might even get to meet him,” Gu Huai said.

Oh my!

Gu Huai had mentioned her to Professor Shen!

Professor Shen had even praised her?

If she went, not only could she visit the experimental fields, but she might also meet Professor Shen?

Qi Yue could hardly describe the admiration she felt for Gu Huai at this moment, and two words involuntarily appeared in her mind—

“Wanna marry!!!”

“…”

On the other end of the phone, Gu Huai clearly paused for a moment, then, his deep voice tinged with amusement, slowly repeated Qi Yue’s words, “Wanna marry?”
