World Seven. Stand-in Lover (03)

Under Fu Qingyu’s insistence on “responsibility”, the two gradually became familiar with each other.

Xue Li then knew that Fu Qingyu was a well-known illustrator. In order not to cause him pressure, Xue Li chose to use the identity of an ordinary white-collar worker to communicate with him.

Fu Qingyu was like a big boy with a bright personality. Even if he had stepped into the society, he still retained the vigor and vitality of his youth. After discovering Xue Li’s woeful life experience, Fu Qingyu, as a friend, took Xue Li to do many things that she did not know in her adolescence.

Xue Li never knew that she could also laugh so loudly and happily.

All this was because of Fu Qingyu’s company.

It took some time for Xue Li to understand her own mind, but before she could take action, the seeds that had not yet germinated were cruelly killed.

She had always known that Fu Qingyu had a younger schoolmate he liked. Although he did not mention it many times, Xue Li could sensitively find that when Fu Qingyu mentioned the girl, there was a touch of tenderness between the corners of his eyes and brows.

For the first time since Xue Li grew up, she knew what it was like to be jealous.

Sour and astringent.

But she didn’t give up.

After inferring from the lines that the two were not boyfriend and girlfriend, Xue Li decided to confess to Fu Qingyu first.

She booked a restaurant that only caters to VIP customers. It was located on the top floor of the hotel. The window position overlooked the spectacular scene of the whole city when night falls.

Xue Li, one of the shareholders, has a reserved position here.

When Fu Qingyu was brought in by the waiter, he was obviously a little uncomfortable.

“Here…”

“You don’t like it?”

“Ah? No, no, it’s just…” Seeing that this was something the average people can not afford, Fu Qingyu also vaguely realized something, but in the face of the smiling Xue Li, he chose to swallow his doubts into his stomach. “Why do you want to invite me to dinner all of a sudden?”

“Suddenly? If I say I’ve been preparing for a long time…” Xue Li lost her smile when she saw Fu Qingyu’s appearance as if he was facing a big enemy. “Just kidding, I just want to thank you for taking care of me for the past six months. You accompany me to the hospital for follow-up visits without any hindrance. Then, I have something to tell you.”

“You don’t have to thank me at all. We are friends now. Isn’t this too outlandish?” Fu Qingyu scratched his head. “But what a coincidence, I also have something to tell you.”

“Huh?” You don’t have to thank me at all. We are friends now.

“Well, okay.” Fu Qingyu took a sip of the cup on the table and said shyly. “She said yes.”

“What?”

Xue Li didn’t understand until she saw the excitement in Fu Qingyu’s eyes.

She immediately thought of the reason.

“I thought later that you were right. If I didn’t say it, she wouldn’t know my heart, so she and I…” Fu Qingyu lowered her voice, not noticing Xue Li’s pale face, but she could still hear how excited he was. “I confessed to her.”

Sure enough.

At that moment, Xue Li’s heart sank to the bottom.

If Fu Qingyu raised his eyes and looked at Xue Li, he would find that there was no blood on the woman’s face, her body was trembling slightly, and cold sweat was dripping down her smooth forehead. However, the normally meticulous man was immersed in the excitement of years of love and finally getting what he wanted, so he couldn’t wait to share his happiness with others, and didn’t notice the changes around him.

Fu Qingyu, who was talking endlessly, every word he said was like throwing an arrow into Xue Li’s heart.

“Do you know what she said after hearing my confession?”

“She said she liked me too!”

“She said she had liked me for a long time, but she didn’t show her feelings for me because she thought I only treated her like a sister.”

“Xue Li, you know when I hear her say that, it feels like…”

Later, Xue Li couldn’t hear what Fu Qingyu said, because she suddenly lost consciousness and fell to the side.

Xue Xue: “How pitiful.”

Seeing this, Xue Xue finally commented.

In fact, she doesn’t understand very well, Fu Qingyu may be considered above the standard in all aspects in the eyes of ordinary people, but according to Xue Li’s own conditions and the circle she was in, a man of Fu Qingyu’s level should be like a simple dish of porridge, but also somehow can attract Xue Li so much.

But after thinking about it, Fu Qingyu may be the first person Xue Li has ever met in her life to lend a helping hand to her, show kindness without asking for anything in return, and simply treat her well, not to mention that the encounter between the two was cliche.

It seemed as if they were destined to meet each other, which was comparable to the plot of an idol drama. Xue Li’s heart moved secretly.

Sometimes it’s just the right place and time.

Not knowing what Xue Xue was feeling, the system silently added: “There’s something even more pitiful afterwards.”

Hearing this, Xue Xue blinked, and before she could ask clearly, she knew the reason.

To be more precise, she saw why.

The girl who promised Fu Qingyu to be his girlfriend was none other than Xue Li’s half-sister, Xue Xiangxiang.

Xue Xue: “…Really a dog blood.” [T/N: Dog Blood is unbelievably cliche drama with complicated and exaggerating plots]

System: “No dog blood, no life, haven’t you heard this sentence?”

Xue Xue: “…Never heard of it.”
