Be a Good Boy and Marry Me - Chapter 482

Chapter 482: Chapter 340: Feel free to do as you please, act as if I don’t exist._1

Qiao Yin pursed her lips and didn’t reply straight away.

This afternoon they mentioned in their group chat about having a hot pot dinner tonight. Gu Li was nowhere to be seen and she had declined the invite because she already made plans with Shen Yunsi.

Thus, it wasn’t the case that she and a few others invited Gu Li and Mo Shiting, without informing her.

Originally, Qiao Yin wanted to tell Shen Yunsi the truth. However, as she prepared to speak, she heard Shen Yunsi say, “It’s okay if you weren’t invited. Don’t let it bother you. I’ll treat you tonight. Probably Gu Li found it embarrassing to invite both of us together, seeing she took your place.”

The moment she said these words, filled with a chill, even the densest person could hear the intent to instigate conflict. Moreover, Qiao Yin was not a fool. She immediately understood that Shen Yunsi held great animosity towards Gu Li, while she herself could be used as a tool against Gu Li.

There were rumours that Professor Shen and Mo Shiting grew up together and might have become a couple had Gu Li not come into the picture. Perhaps it was for this reason that Shen Yunsi regarded Gu Li as her love rival?

Qiao Yin’s eyes flickered as she understood this, and she secretly made a decision. She was just an ordinary university student and had no place involving herself in this war between Shen Yunsi and Gu Li.

Unbeknownst to Shen Yunsi, Qiao Yin had seen through her intentions. Thinking she had managed to influence Qiao Yin, her lips twisted into a deeper smile.

She affectionately tugged at Qiao Yin’s arm and softly said,

“Let’s go in.”

“Alright.”

Qiao Yin nodded without any change in her expression.

…

The private room that Da Ha booked was on the third floor, facing the river on two sides. There were large floor-to-ceiling windows, providing an excellent view.

As Gu Li and her roommates entered, they caught Da Ha in the middle of ordering dishes from the waiter.

Seeing Gu Li bringing two young girls in, Da Ha was taken aback for a moment but immediately grasped the situation.

“Boss, these must be your roommates?” he asked, “Did they come with you?”

Gu Li laughed, “Yes, they did. Let me introduce them to you.”

She brought Mi Dong and Chen Xue to Da Ha and said, “This is my dorm captain Mi Dong. Chen Xue sleeps on the bed next to mine. This is my younger brother Gu Yao. He’s very lively and outgoing. You can just call him Da Ha.”

“Hello, it’s a pleasure to meet you,” Da Ha said politely, giving the young women a smiling glance. His youthful, stunning features made all the girls’ hearts flutter.

“Da Ha, you’re really handsome!” exclaimed Chen Xue, unable to stop praising him. “I’ve finally met the so called ‘manga man’ today.”

Regardless of her indifference towards manga, even Mi Dong had to admit, that this young man was truly handsome.

“Hehe, thank you.”

Da Ha touched his black hair feeling slightly embarrassed.

Gu Li said, “Alright, alright. Don’t praise him too much. He’s a little shy. Let’s sit down.”

“Alright.”

Chen Xue took the lead and eagerly pulled Mi Dong with her to a side, leaving the main seats unoccupied for Gu Li and Mo Shiting.

“Da Ha, what did you order?”

Gu Li picked up the menu and asked while scanning through it.

Da Ha kindly said, “I ordered a ‘Ying Yang’ hot pot with duck blood, tofu, dried beancurd, seaweed, yam, luncheon meat, tripe, yellow throat, duck intestine, beef balls, and shrimp paste. I know you love all of these.”

“Very nice, order some more beef. Also, vegetables and mushrooms. Chen Xue, Mi Dong, order whatever you like, don’t hold back.”

Once Gu Li finished, she passed the menu over to them.

“Sure. There’s no need for you to worry. We surely won’t hold back!”

Chen Xue and Gu Li were already familiar with each other. She was always straightforward and did not beat around the bush.

Just as Mo Shiting was about to enter the private room, hearing the laughter and cheerful voices in it, he smirked. But then, his phone vibrated. A call came in.

He looked at the screen and, seeing that it was from Lu Cong, he decided to step away from the room and walked to the end of the corridor before answering the call.

“What’s up?”

He hadn’t had any contact with Lu Cong for quite some time. Knowing that he had gone to M Country, he supposed it must have been related to Murong Qian.

“Where are you? Come to the bar and have a drink with me,” asked Lu Cong, sounding a little depressed.

Mo Shiting frowned, “You’re back in the country?”

“Yeah, I came back this afternoon.”

Lu Cong replied truthfully.

At that moment, he was sitting at the bar counter holding his phone in one hand, while pouring himself a whiskey with the other.

Upon hearing the sound of pouring, Mo Shiting advised, “Don’t drink too much. I’ll come and find you later.”

“Alright.”

Without giving anything else away, Lu Cong hung up the phone.

Shiting’s eyes shone with a profound light, revealing a hint of secrecy.
