Be a Good Boy and Marry Me

Chapter 409: Chapter 315 Gu Li and Mo Shiting are relatives_3

“Oh? There’s a story?”

Gu Li looked eager for gossip.

Perhaps it was because she was so familiar with Song Yunque. In her eyes, he was such a silly goofball. Yet, surprisingly, others saw him as a heartthrob.

Tsk, tsk.

She wondered what Xiang Xiaoyue would think if she knew that her heroic heartthrob had once complained about her being too heavy while carrying her behind her back.

“Hehe.”

Gu Li laughed out loud without realizing, as she amused herself with this thought.

Xiang Xiaoyue glanced at her sideways, “What are you laughing about?”

“Nothing, nothing. I’m just curious to hear your story. Go on.”

“Well, urn…”

Xiang Xiaoyue cleared her throat, “When I came to school on my first day as a freshman at Imperial City University. I brought too many things with me, and I was struggling to carry everything by myself. I saw many male students who were empty-handed, but none of them offered to help. Meanwhile, female students who didn’t have much to carry received help from several male students willingly. The stark contrast struck me. I felt hurt, and wondered, was it because I was too fat for them to want to help?”

Gu Li looked her over. After exercising for a while, Xiang Xiaoyue had slimmed down considerably. She was not even plump anymore.

When they first met, she wasn’t even fat — at most, slightly chubby.

But so what if one is chubby?

Even during the Tang Dynasty, being chubby was considered as beautiful.

What kind of mindset do these students at Imperial City University have?

Superficial!

Xiang Xiaoyue went on, “As I was dragging my luggage along, I became increasingly disappointed by this indifferent university life. However, my heartthrob appeared out of the blue. He came over enthusiastically and asked me, ‘Classmate, do you need help?’ At that moment, it felt as if the whole world had become a better place, and I was glad that there was such a kind-hearted, nonjudgmental male student in Imperial City University. I didn’t dare to ask his name then, but I later found out at an award ceremony that he was the school idol, Song Yunque.”

“Hmm.”

Light laughter escaped Gu Li’s lips. Curious about Xiang Xiaoyue’s real feelings towards Song Yunque, she decided to ask directly, “Since you knew who he was, why didn’t you get to know him?”

“He is the high and mighty school idol, the young master of the Song Family. I’m just an ordinary person. We live in totally different worlds. What’s the point in getting to know him? Besides, I was in a relationship then. Although my boyfriend was a jerk, it would have been even worse if I drunkenly chased after the school idol, right?”

“Well, yes!”

Gu Li nodded, “I almost forgot about your jerk of an ex-boyfriend.”

XiangXiaoyue:”…”

Did her jerk of an ex-boyfriend really have such a negligible presence?

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the library while talking.

Just as they were about to enter, a joyful male voice could be heard in the distance, “Pear, Pear, Little Pear.”

Boom

Speak of the devil and he shall appear… It was Song Yunque.

Gu Li smiled inwardly, as it seemed that this pair had quite the synchronicity. Might as well go with the flow and introduce them. Luckily, this idiot didn’t call her Big God or Four Sister-in-law, or else, it would have scared Xiang Xiaoyue to death.

It wasn’t that Gu Li intentionally concealed her true identity from Xiang Xiaoyue. It’s just that Xiaoyue had no interest in her background. And Gu Li couldn’t just suddenly blurt out, “Hey, do you know? I’m actually the illustrious manga artist Gu Li, and also the ex-wife and girlfriend of Mo Shiting, the CEO of the Xinghe Group.”

Song Yunque called out to Gu Li a few times before he ran over, while Xiang Xiaoyue’s eyes widened in disbelief. Her legs trembled. “Li…Little Pear, am I seeing things? Is that the heartthrob? He knows you? He’s calling you?”

“Yes, that’s correct.”

Gu Li gave a slight smile and told her, “The time we were at the bar, it was your heartthrob who had helped us out of a sticky situation, and then carried you back to the dormitory.”

“What?”

The books in Xiang Xiaoyue’s hands abruptly fell to the ground.

Startled, she staggered back a couple of steps, luckily, Gu Li caught her just in time to prevent her from falling.

Song Yunque came over and helped Xiang Xiaoyue pick up her books, five in total, and handed them back to her.

“Tha…thankyou.”

Nervous, Xiang Xiaoyue swallowed, her fair cheeks blushing a rosy red.

Gu Li cast her an amused glance, then turned to Song Yunque, “What brings you here?”

“Grandma instructed me to specifically look for you, Four Sister-in-law.”

As expected, Song Yunque was unreliable, and blurted out the term “Four Sister-in-law” again.

Xiang Xiaoyue was even more shocked, “Fo…Four sister-in-law? Your boyfriend is a member of the Song family?”

Gu Li shook her head, “No, his family name is Mo.”

“Ah? Oh, you scared me.”

Xiang Xiaoyue exhaled in relief.

But the next second, she thought to herself: ‘Mo?’ There aren’t many who carry that surname in Imperial City. Could it be the ‘Mo’ from Mo Group?

Does that mean that Gu Li has some relation with Young Master Mo?

However, Gu Li had no time to consider Xiang Xiaoyue’s conjectures. Upon hearing that the elderly lady in the Song Family had sent Song Yunque to look for her, she immediately felt that something was up.
