Chapter 27: Invited by My Junior Again

Actually, there was no need to rush this much.

“What’s wrong, Senior? Are you unhappy coming out with me? Your face looks so gloomy, it makes me sad too, you know~”

Fu Yi puffed her cheeks, a little displeased, and poked Yu Qing’s forehead with her chopsticks.

“Ah, sorry, Junior. I just didn’t expect you to invite me to a meal, so I was a bit flattered.”

Dodging the incoming chopsticks, Yu Qing laughed awkwardly, his ears slightly red, but doubts rose in his heart.

Why does my face look bad?

Junior, how can you say such things so easily?

Can’t you see the way people around us are looking at me?

I feel like a giant panda in a zoo right now.

Even if I wanted attention, I didn’t want to be surrounded and stared at like a rare animal!

And that guy over there, doesn’t your hand hurt?

Damaging cafeteria utensils costs money, you know.

Hurry up and throw away that spoon in your hand.

Bent like that, it clearly can’t be used to drink soup, right?

If you throw it away now, I can pretend I didn’t see it. I promise I won’t report you!

The time moves to half an hour earlier.

Today is Tuesday.

With no morning classes, Yu Qing stayed in the Dormitory, browsing the Forum for information about Junior, and then cross-referenced it with some living details he had dug up from Lin Wei yesterday, integrating them together, removing the obviously false rumors, and storing them in an Encrypted File on his phone.

By the way, for secrecy, Yu Qing deliberately changed the icon of the Encrypted File to a Radio icon.

This kind of software that comes with the phone but is never used is the least likely to be noticed.

To be even safer, he set the password to Junior’s birthday.

So even if someone accidentally clicked on it, they couldn’t open the file.

And it’s a password he himself could never forget.

Up to now, the file already recorded over thirty pieces of information, sorted in order of importance from top to bottom.

The first was the issue of Junior’s family background.

On the day of the investigation, Yu Qing saw Junior get out of a car.

At first, he didn’t know the model, so he didn’t pay much attention.

Later, he happened to see a post on the Forum where someone falsely claimed that Junior occasionally arrived at school in a Maybach, maybe with some rich tycoon.

After that, Yu Qing fully recognized the car. He had only heard of it before, never seen it.

The last time was on that rainy night under the overpass.

Plus, after returning from that Apartment, Yu Qing checked out an area called Shu Xiang Yuan.

There were many results, but only one in their region.

And online reviews said that even being a Security Guard there could lead to riches.

Even though it was a school district property, the rent was terrifyingly high!

All these clues cross-verified, indicating that Junior really did come from a Big Family?

This would undoubtedly make Yu Qing’s actions much harder, but he didn’t mind.

On the contrary, he was even more motivated.

What was once just the School Belle now also came with the title of Rich Girl.

The more labels stacked, the more excited Yu Qing became.

After reading, he also casually reported that post.

Yu Qing considered this maintaining his own future reputation.

As for other pieces of information, there was no need to list them all. With this Encrypted File, Yu Qing was confident he could act in front of people familiar with Junior without slipping up.

After organizing the file, time had reached noon.

Twelve o’clock was lunch time, and the Cafeteria would be crowded.

If he hurried, Yu Qing was confident he could reach the Cafeteria by eleven forty.

After getting dressed, Yu Qing left the Dormitory, and on the way to the Cafeteria, he happened to bump into Junior, who had just finished class and was heading to the Cafeteria with Zhou Min and Lin Wei.

Then he saw Junior quietly say something to the other two, making them go ahead while she walked up to Yu Qing with a bright smile, insisting on eating together.

As for what happened after, it was just like now.

Yu Qing looked like he was about to cry, but under Fu Yi’s resentful gaze, he forced a smile.

What?

You say a true man sheds blood but not tears?

I can bend and stretch, too.

“So, Junior, did you have something to discuss with me? You couldn’t have invited me just to eat, right?”

Yu Qing smiled bitterly, picked up the chopsticks on the table, and subtly pointed at the people around them:

“If you have something to say, say it quickly, or it’ll be them eating me instead of me eating.”

“Can’t it just be a meal?”

Fu Yi smiled gently, folded her arms on the table, leaned forward slightly, and stared straight into Yu Qing’s eyes.

“Or is it that Senior has a guilty conscience and is worried I came to cause you trouble?”

“Do I have a guilty conscience? Hmm… If I really have to say, maybe it’s that I’ve secretly liked you all along.”

Of course, liked your body.

Yu Qing silently added in his heart, but said the line with a calm face.

In truth, he was nervous.

If he hadn’t mentally prepared for the possibility of Junior suddenly causing him trouble, he wouldn’t have been able to reply so quickly, using a joke to temporarily deflect her momentum.

“Ah! Senior, what are you suddenly saying!”

Fu Yi pretended to be shy, covering her face with her hands and leaving only her beautiful eyes, blinking at Yu Qing.

Then she leaned close to Yu Qing’s ear and whispered:

“But even so, I still can’t easily forgive Senior for secretly asking Weiwei about me.”

So it was about that?

Looks like it did make Lin Wei suspicious at the time, or she wouldn’t have told Junior so quickly.

Such a disobedient Weiwei, next time after turning into Junior, I must properly punish her.

“Then what kind of compensation does Junior want to forgive me? Extra large milk tea?”

Yu Qing raised both hands in surrender.

“Extra large milk tea? Senior! You still owe me two cups from before!”

Talking about milk tea, Fu Yi felt a little speechless.

She didn’t care much about milk tea, but being stood up repeatedly by the same person made her doubt if her own charm was lacking.

She had almost forgotten about it, but Yu Qing brought it up again today!

This shamelessness even stirred her usually indifferent heart.

“Eh? You really want it?”

Yu Qing was stunned.

He thought he was just being polite, and since Junior never mentioned it, he didn’t take it seriously, planning to drink it himself whenever he remembered and felt guilty.

After all, when I become Junior, if I drink the milk tea, it’s the same as treating her (confirmed).

“Wow! Senior! You’re really bad!”

Fu Yi was actually amused by anger, but kept her irritation hidden behind a calm exterior, only saying a few perfunctory words.

“My fault, my fault.”

Yu Qing raised his hands again, then suggested:

“Let’s go have coffee. There’s a Starbucks at the Cafeteria entrance. I heard from Lin Wei that you like it. It can be compensation.”

Just as planned, the best way to approach Junior frequently with a legitimate reason was to pretend to pursue her.

Other methods were either too time-consuming or risked being labeled a creep.

The only downside was the uncertainty of Junior’s attitude.

If she was offended and avoided him forever, it would be a loss.

But at the time, there was no better idea.

His mind was tangled with worries about whether Junior had linked that night’s incident to him, making it hard to think clearly.

Moreover, with Junior acting like she was bringing him to justice, and himself always on the defensive, only by tossing this heavy bomb could he disrupt her rhythm and slightly improve the situation.

But the result was good. Junior obviously didn’t take it seriously.

After all, too many people confessed or sent love letters to her daily.

He was just one of many, and his tone was so casual it sounded like a joke.

It’s just that I truly do like Junior’s body.
