Gu Lianyin Blushed

Gu Lianyin Blushed

Early in the morning, when Lin Yuan arrived at the classroom, he saw soy milk and buns on his desk.

Gu Lianyin sat beside him, smiling at him.

"What's this? Why did you buy me breakfast today?"

Lin Yuan was a little surprised.

Ever since Gu Lianyin's first mock exam had ended, she had never bought him breakfast again.

Had the sun risen in the west today?

"What, can't I treat you to breakfast? Hmph!"

Gu Lianyin crossed her arms over her chest.

That movement pressed her loose jacket against her body, outlining her full curves.

Lin Yuan could not help taking a few extra looks.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Not only was she pretty, but she had such a great figure too.

A girl like her was rarer than a wild giant panda.

He calmly sat down and picked up a bun to eat.

Even though he had already eaten in the cafeteria earlier.

After breakfast, Lin Yuan noticed that Gu Lianyin seemed rather off today.

She was acting shy and awkward, completely unlike herself.

"What's wrong with you today? You're acting strange."

"Huh? N-No, I'm always like this~"

Gu Lianyin denied it.

Gu Lianyin, Gu Lianyin, don't chicken out! Be brave and ask Lin Yuan if he likes any girls!

Test whether he has any feelings for me!

If I don't make a move, some other girl will snatch him away!

Lin Yuan, who had been drinking soy milk, nearly sprayed it out in one gulp.

He stared at Gu Lianyin in astonishment.

She...

Liked me?

Lin Yuan suddenly remembered that after he had completed the choice mission yesterday, the system had increased Gu Lianyin's favorability toward him by 20.

Those 20 points of favorability had made Gu Lianyin develop romantic feelings for him.

But to Lin Yuan, those points of favorability were neither here nor there.

"Sigh, what a headache!"

Lin Yuan suddenly sighed.

"What's wrong? Tell me your troubles and make me happy."

Gu Lianyin had taken the bait, just as expected.

Lin Yuan sighed. "I'm only eighteen, but my mom is already urging me to get a girlfriend. Isn't that annoying?"

"Huh? Auntie is rushing you way too much." Gu Lianyin's heart leaped with joy.

Hahaha, so Lin Yuan doesn't have a girlfriend!

"Yeah, and no girls are chasing me either. I really want to know what being in a relationship feels like."

Lin Yuan kept a straight face as he tried not to laugh.

Wow! No girls are chasing Lin Yuan either. That's great!

Gu Lianyin, be reserved. Stay calm, stay calm!

You dress so badly. If I were a guy, I definitely wouldn't chase you either.

But I can test Lin Yuan's attitude and find out what kind of girl he likes.

"Lin Yuan, what kind of girl do you like? If I know anyone suitable, I can introduce her to you!"

Gu Lianyin patted his shoulder, pretending to be mature and worldly.

"Me?" Lin Yuan pretended to think seriously before giving his answer.

"I like girls who are lively, cheerful, and share my interests."

"Of course, I don't care whether she's pretty or not. Even if she isn't pretty, I wouldn't mind."

"And this girl has to like me a little too..."

As he said this, he looked directly at Gu Lianyin.

Gu Lianyin's heart pounded wildly.

Her cheeks burned, and the tips of her ears turned bright red.

Wasn't he describing her?

She was lively and cheerful, and her hobbies were similar to Lin Yuan's. They got along well, too.

And Lin Yuan had said he didn't mind whether his future girlfriend was pretty or ugly, while looking right at her.

Could it be...

The more Gu Lianyin thought about it, the redder her cheeks became.

Did this count as a roundabout confession?

I'm so embarrassed. What do I do? I don't dare look at him or say anything now.

Ah, why is Lin Yuan still looking at me? He's so annoying!

Lin Yuan deliberately watched her shy expression.

She was simply adorable beyond words.

"Lianyin, tell that best friend of yours to sell the stocks in five days."

"We're preparing to sell ours too. We should make around six hundred thousand when all is said and done."

"When the time comes, we'll split it fifty-fifty."

Lin Yuan suddenly brought up the stocks to ease the awkwardness.

"Oh~"

Gu Lianyin answered absentmindedly.

"Tomorrow is Saturday, so there's no school. I'm going home for two days, and the tutoring will be paused for those two days."

"Mm-hmm."

The dismissal bell rang that afternoon.

The two waved goodbye and went home separately.

Lin Yuan's home was more than ten kilometers from the school.

He took a taxi back.

This was an urban village, where rent was cheap.

Lin Yuan had lived here with his mother since childhood, relying on each other.

As for his father?

He had disappeared without a trace when his mother had still been pregnant with him.
