The Heartthrob Became My Boyfriend

Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Envy

The sales associate standing by, had she not been bound by professionalism, probably couldn’t have contained her excitement and would have let out an excited shriek.

Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh!

What kind of fairy-tale boyfriend is this!!!!

At first, she thought the man was just teasing the girl, planning to buy the item and give it to her as a gift afterward, but she never expected that she was the one being superficial!

She was just a sales associate, why did she have to witness all this…

By now, Qi Yue had also come to her senses, could this be… the infamous girlfriend’s hair band? @@novelbin@@

Wasn’t it trending a while ago?

Wearing a girl’s hair band signifies having a girlfriend…

She never thought… a hair band could be used in such a way…

But what the big shot said does make sense, doesn’t it?

Is this what the big shot calls value?

…

After leaving the jewelry store, Gu Huai was still in a good mood, so the two of them strolled around the mall casually.

It was Qi Yue’s first time at this mall, and she planned to see if there were any good eats or fun places so they could come back with Qiuqiu next time.

When they reached the top floor, Qi Yue was surprised to see a small stall selling sugar figurines, with all kinds of animals and characters from cartoons rendered lifelike.

Qi Yue really wanted to buy one, but given that all the kids were queuing up around, she felt shy and refrained from it.

Just a few steps away, out of the corner of her eye, she saw a Fencing Gym across from her, and it was quite large at that.

Qi Yue’s eyes suddenly lit up.

She felt an itch in her hands.

Seeing her pause, Gu Huai offered, “Shall we take a look inside?”

Qi Yue nodded repeatedly, and the two entered the Fencing Gym.

This place was quite spacious and looked professional. As soon as they entered, someone came up to greet them.

“Are you here to try fencing? Our new gym has an opening promotion where you can try it for free. If you are not familiar with it, I can give you a tour and explain a bit…”

Compared to sports like ping pong, badminton, football, or basketball, which are more widespread, fencing isn’t as well-known. In fact, only larger cities might have fencing gyms, and indeed, many people are unfamiliar with the sport.

Qi Yue nodded her head. If the gym was nice, she could indeed become a regular.

She looked at Gu Huai with an inquiring gaze, “Want to take a look?”

“Sure, you go ahead, I have something to take care of and will be back in a bit,” Gu Huai said.

Hearing this, Qi Yue subconsciously nodded, “Oh, okay, then. I’ll wait for you…”

After Gu Huai left, Qi Yue sat in the rest area for a while, waiting for his return.

The gym’s staff considerately prepared tea, drinks, and snacks for her.

As a new establishment, both its decor and service were impressive, and it seemed quite popular, with quite a few people coming in to try it out.

While Qi Yue was resting and waiting for Gu Huai, a man’s somewhat excited voice suddenly pierced through—

“Qi Yue!”

Instinctively, Qi Yue followed the direction of the voice.

Then, she saw a figure familiar yet strange.

The man had a handsome face, dressed casually but with unmistakable sophistication. The youthful naivety from his face had faded, replaced by a much more composed look.

Qi Yue was stunned for a long moment before finally extracting herself from the memories flashing back, matching the person in her memory to the one before her, she murmured, “Chu Mufan…”
