CHAPTER 285: CHAPTER 164-165: A CHANCE ENCOUNTER / REPORTING IN 2

"Mo Yaoguang, the original agreement was for two months, and it’s already expired!" Qi Qianqian yelled anxiously, hoping that Mom would leave soon. Knowing her mom’s temper, if she finds out that the other person is a girl, Qi Qianqian would definitely get an earful.

"Stepmom, Qianqian, what’s wrong?" Sensing something amiss, the young man—Ye Xuan’s childhood friend, Qi Bin, came out from the next private room.

"Brother, nothing’s wrong, just help me drag Mom back." Qi Qianqian’s face flushed with urgency.

"Let go of me..." The middle-aged woman angrily pulled away from her daughter: "When did you start dating a boyfriend secretly? How many times have I told you, a girl must respect herself? With the way you are, it would be strange if Ye Xuan liked you!"

"Mom!" Qi Qianqian stomped her foot and returned to the private room, feeling completely embarrassed in front of Luo Ye.

"Stepmom, it might be a misunderstanding." Qi Bin just came over trying to smooth things over, but when he saw Luo Ye, he paused and then laughed: "Ye’er, where are you headed?"

Luo Ye smiled faintly, "Hello Brother Qi, I am going to school to register. Where are you headed?"

"I’m going on a business trip to Sha City. It just so happens that Qianqian has been admitted to S University, so we came together. Oh, let me introduce you," Qi Bin pointed at the middle-aged woman who was staring blankly at Luo Ye, "This is my stepmom, Zhang Xiaoju, previously..." Perhaps thinking of the past where Qi Qianqian peeked at Luo Ye, Qi Bin’s face flashed unnaturally: "The girl from before was my sister, Qi Qianqian."

"How coincidental, this is Qu Yue, this is Yan Xingnong, and this is Mo Yaoguang." After Luo Ye finished introducing everyone, he looked at Zhang Xiaoju, "Auntie, please forgive us if there have been any offenses."

Zhang Xiaoju’s cheek muscles twitched a few times, and she silently returned to the private room. Qi Bin apologized with a smile, "My stepmom is a bit hot-tempered. Earlier, while getting in the car, she was scolded over the phone by my dad, and she was already in a bad mood, please bear with her."

"No problem, would you like to come in and sit for a while, Brother Qi?"

"Not for now, I better go check up on them." Qi Bin sighed, waved his hand, and took his leave.

Xing Nong poked his head out, closed the private room door slightly, and whispered with a lowered voice, "Luo Luo, is that Qi Qianqian’s brother? He’s quite handsome, a distinct charm compared to your Ye Bingbing!"

Luo Ye rolled his eyes, "What do you mean ’your Ye Bingbing’? Don’t make up nicknames or categorize them, alright?"

"That’s right, Xing Nong needs to stop this habit," Qu Yue quickly chipped in, who had been deep in thought.

Xing Nong pouted, "Che, well Qi Qianqian is from the same school as you, Boss Qu. After pondering for so long, it can’t be that your affections have shifted so quickly, right?"

"Xing Nong, can you focus on something credible?" With a frustrated expression, Qu Yue was pondering, but he was actually thinking about the look Qi Bin gave Luo Ye, which was one of restrained suppression. Why was that?

"Let me say something credible. Yaoguang, why did you do that?" Luo Ye looked seriously at the always silent Mo Yaoguang.

"..."

"If you don’t want to explain, let me help. When you saw Qi Qianqian, the pride of having successfully disguised as a boy and fooled a girlfriend surged up momentarily.

Therefore, without waiting for your brain to catch up, you greeted her, and then, you wanted to retaliate against her mom for being rude to Xing Nong. If Qi Bin hadn’t shown up in time, you would surely have played a prank on the mother and daughter pair.

But, did you notice? Qi Qianqian’s expression clearly showed she knew you were a girl. She didn’t reveal it, fearing her mom would find out.

With her mom’s personality, she would definitely not stop meddling. Ultimately, you would be the first one to suffer. Don’t forget, you were admitted to a military school. Do you really want to take the train back the next day and disappoint Grandpa?"

As for Mo Yaoguang not wanting to admit she’s a girl, Luo Ye was already thinking about finding a chance to talk on the way, since the three are classmates and comrades from the same place. She can’t be indifferent anymore; this was indeed a good opportunity.

"Yaoguang, to tell the truth, even though you have a buzz cut, your delicate features, Adam’s apple, downy mustache, and voice – anyone who looks closely can easily tell you are a girl.

I’ve always been meticulous in observing people, and I recognized you as a girl as soon as I entered the door. Although I agreed with your emphasis, it doesn’t mean I believed you were a boy.

I just couldn’t gauge your temper and didn’t want to make you angry. Of course, for me, there’s a simpler way to tell—if you were really a boy, would Ye’er let you sit on her bed leaning against her?"
