The gazes that frequently fell upon me were sometimes bold, sometimes subtle, sometimes curious, and sometimes inquisitive.
"I can just do it myself."
Gu Qing took out the ID document needed for registration, said something, and walked towards the queue for new student registration.
He Xiaowu wanted to dissuade him and take his place, but found that Gu Qing had already walked away.
Su Xiyue obediently looked at the luggage left by Gu Qing.
Having spent a long time with Gu Qing, she knew very well that Gu Qing rarely changed his mind once he made a decision.
Moreover, if a group of people are together, Gu Qing is the one who absolutely does not need to be taken care of.
Especially with strangers, Gu Qing was absolutely unwilling to owe them anything.
With this thought, the girl felt the pressure weighing on her heart ease slightly.
Gu Qing has his own protective layer, and not just anyone can get close to him.
It was only at this moment that He Xiaowu turned her attention to Su Xiyue, who had been following the handsome young man.
What is the relationship between the two?
This is He Xiaowu's primary concern.
Judging from her appearance, although Su Xiyue was a bit more handsome and taller than her, she did not resemble Gu Qing at all.
Family ties should be ruled out.
Gu Qing went to report for duty, but Su Xiyue did not.
This means that Su Xiyue is not from Jin Da, and is likely just accompanying Gu Qing to report for duty.
Throughout their journey, the two did not engage in any ambiguous behavior, nor did they seem like a couple.
Based on this reasoning, could they be distant cousins?
Or perhaps a childhood sweetheart you've known since you were little?
He Xiaowu can rest assured about the former.
He Xiaowu was not afraid of the latter at all.
These days, can a green plum really stand up to a gift from heaven?
Instead of worrying about Su Xiyue, we should worry about the other animals in the school.
Thinking this way, He Xiaowu felt much less hostile towards Su Xiyue in front of her.
Following her senior's example, He Xiaowu smiled at Su Xiyue and asked indirectly:
"Hey junior, didn't your parents come to see you off?"
Instead of inquiring about Gu Qing's situation, He Xiaowu asked a question with a hidden meaning.
Su Xiyue glanced at He Xiaowu warily.
Without a doubt, this person has feelings for Gu Qing.
Or rather, it would be rather strange if a girl didn't have feelings for a guy like Gu Qing.
Su Xiyue could understand and accept it, but she would never let her guard down.
"They're busy."
Out of caution, Su Xiyue was unwilling to answer too many questions.
"So this is ah……"
He Xiaowu nodded thoughtfully.
It seems that Gu Qing and the girl in front of him are related.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have given that answer.
In this case……
He Xiaowu's hostility towards Su Xiyue immediately dropped to zero, and she became enthusiastic instead.
"Junior, would you mind adding me on WeChat? I feel like we hit it off immediately and get along really well!"
As He Xiaowu spoke, she had already taken out her phone and was about to scan the QR code.
For Su Xiyue, who had just graduated from high school, He Xiaowu's methods seemed simple and direct, yet very effective.
People of this age find it hard to refuse such reasonable requests made in person.
Or rather, they haven't learned how to say no to others.
He Xiaowu took advantage of this.
As she expected, although Su Xiyue was reluctant, she was too embarrassed to refuse outright, so she had no choice but to show her WeChat QR code.
After adding it, He Xiaowu made a note.
She knew that if she couldn't win over Gu Qing directly, she could take a roundabout approach and perhaps make some new discoveries by going through Su Xiyue.
In this way, she gained a certain degree of first-mover advantage.
After all, those bastards at school won't get Su Xiyue's contact information anytime soon, since she has a close relationship with Gu Qing.
Thinking of this, He Xiaowu couldn't help but secretly admire her own intelligence.
Meanwhile, Gu Qing also completed the registration procedures and paid the fees.
After returning to the shade of the tree, Gu Qing glanced at the dormitory address he had been assigned and then said to Su Xiyue:
"Let's go, let's go to the dormitory first."
Su Xiyue nodded, grabbed Gu Qing's suitcase, and prepared to set off.
He Xiaowu, who had been waiting for this moment, quickly said, "Where is your dormitory, junior? I'll take you there. There are many dormitory buildings around here, so it might be hard to find."
Gu Qing glanced at He Xiaowu.
Gu Qing could easily guess why this senior was so enthusiastic.
With the intention of not letting the other party waste their feelings and time, Gu Qing said to He Xiaowu:
"I'm sorry, senior, I don't have any plans to be in a relationship yet."
"It's alright!" He Xiaowu said, her expression unchanged. "Serving my juniors is what I should do as a senior."
As for her claim that she had no plans to date, she didn't take it seriously.
And even if it's not there now, it might be soon.
If you give up so easily, you'll probably be single for life.
Gu Qing thought for a moment and roughly understood He Xiaowu's thoughts.
It's very simple. Just put yourself in his male identity from his past life, and you'll understand after a little thought.
So Gu Qing had no choice but to say again, "Senior, I'm telling the truth. Although I like fishing, I absolutely do not like raising fish."
"Even if I'm planning to date, my senior is not on my radar."
Gu Qing's words were very direct, even somewhat hurtful.
Although he has never been in a relationship, if you put yourself in someone else's shoes, you would never want to be lured in by any means or words.
Therefore, Gu Qing had no choice but to give a very clear answer at this moment.
This answer made Su Xiyue's eyes light up, and her eyes showed even more love.
This is the Gu Qing she likes—always so tactful and knowing when to advance and retreat.
Compared to the false ambiguity, Gu Qing's cruel but honest rejection made her happier.
One can imagine that once you successfully fall in love with Gu Qing, it goes without saying that Gu Qing will control his distance from other men and only have eyes for you.
Where can you find a partner like this?
Su Xiyue imagined it with delight.
On the other hand, Gu Qing's straightforwardness made He Xiaowu genuinely want to back out.
While the key to pursuing a guy is to be thick-skinned enough, it doesn't mean you have to be a simp.
But she could think of the same things Su Xiyue could think of.
Gu Qing's straightforward and decisive rejection shows that she is neither one of those "green tea bitches" with a bunch of backup suitors, nor a playboy who keeps a whole pond of fish.
He's handsome, polite, and has a great personality. Should I really just give up on a guy like that?
He Xiaowu's face darkened for a moment, then after a few seconds, she let out a long sigh and smiled, saying:
"Then let me, the senior who isn't even on the list of people my junior is dating, take him to his dorm!"
"After all, volunteers can only earn academic credits if they provide good service!"
A strategic shift—this was a plan that He Xiaowu came up with on the spur of the moment.
As for what happened next, didn't she still have Su Xiyue as a trump card? She just didn't expect to have to use it so soon.
I wonder if my roommates also go through this much trouble when pursuing guys?
