Chapter 351: Chapter 351: I Don’t Want to Marry Someone Like You
(First update, thanks to novel readers for their rewards)
Although Ouyang Feifei felt a bit regretful when Luo Ziling bid farewell and left, she was still in quite a good mood.
She thought that the strategy she had adopted was pretty correct, and at least she had successfully changed Luo Ziling’s impression of her.
From the occasional daze in Luo Ziling’s eyes when he looked at her, she could tell that the young man had developed an interest in her.
But to her surprise, after leaving her place, he actually went on a date with Ouyang Huihui.
Yes, Ouyang Feifei considered their meeting a date.
And it must have been Ouyang Huihui who took the initiative.
Luo Ziling would not have asked Ouyang Huihui out, Ouyang Feifei was clear about that.
This guy still had hard feelings towards Ouyang Huihui!
She could sense the change in Ouyang Huihui’s attitude towards Luo Ziling, which was not a good sign or omen.
Only, she didn’t know what to do or how to prevent them from getting even closer.
Ouyang Feifei really couldn’t figure it out. She had no experience in love and her understanding of romantic relationships was almost non-existent. Moreover, she interacted with Luo Ziling with a mindset of revenge, so she felt somewhat lost.
Of course, Luo Ziling had no idea that Ouyang Feifei would think this way. After parting ways with Ouyang Huihui, he went straight back to his dorm.
As soon as he returned to the dormitory, he was surrounded by a bunch of classmates.
“Boss, Most Beautiful Lift Hero, you’ve finally come back,” Cao Jianhui hugged Luo Ziling, eyes brimming with tears, “I can’t believe it, just one outing and you’ve become an internet celebrity. Even TV stations are broadcasting your positive deed, we’re so proud of you.”
With that, he tightened his embrace on Luo Ziling and called for Li Fuming, “Come take a photo with me and the Boss, I need to post it on the forum quickly, to catch some heat.”
After Li Fuming took the photo, Cao Jianhui immediately let go of Luo Ziling and went to post it on the forum.
Then Li Fuming, Wu Longjiang, and other classmates squeezed over as well, wanting to take a picture with Luo Ziling.
“Stop it,” Luo Ziling got angry and pushed them all away, “What are you doing? Keep this up and I’ll start hitting people!”
With that, he even posed to fight.
Li Fuming and Wu Longjiang quickly dodged, having witnessed Luo Ziling’s prowess in fighting, they didn’t dare provoke him.
But the students from the next dormitory still giggled and came over, wanting to take photos with Luo Ziling.
“Boss, just by walking around the mall with a beauty, you actually became a web celebrity, a famous person,” Cao Jianhui squeezed through again, pushing other students away and wrapping his arm around Luo Ziling’s shoulder again, he said with a lewd smile, “You went on a date with the beautiful Huihui again? Everyone is saying you two are a match made in heaven, not only gorgeous in appearance but also in spirit, everyone is blessing you!”
“Talk nonsense again and I’ll really start hitting people,” Luo Ziling was on the verge of exploding.
He had repeatedly warned them not to mention him and Ouyang Huihui, thinking a reminder would suffice, but they still brought it up in front of so many people.
“It wasn’t me who said it, it’s the comments on the forum,” Cao Jianhui said, pulling Luo Ziling over to his computer.
Luo Ziling looked and sure enough, the opened thread contained the words Cao Jianhui had just mentioned, hoping the “Most Beautiful Lift Hero” and his girlfriend would be happy forever. There were also photoshopped pictures of them together looking intimate, which made Luo Ziling embarrassed.
Seeing the viewing and reply count on that post, Luo Ziling was hugely startled.
The number of replies had reached over a hundred pages, and the view count was also in the tens of thousands.
Luo Ziling sat down, opened the homepage to look, then checked the replies on the first few pages, feeling a mix of exuberance and a touch of depression.
He really wanted to post an explanation saying that the pretty girl wasn’t his girlfriend, just a classmate.
But in the end, he just stood up and stopped looking at the posts.
“Boss, you’re too awesome. We’re proud to have a roommate like you,” Cao Jianhui said, smiling smugly.
It wasn’t clear if his pride was due to the incident involving Luo Ziling or because Luo Ziling had such a beautiful girl accompanying him.
Eventually, under the curiosity and pressure of a group of classmates, Luo Ziling was forced to talk about what happened that night. Afterward, he began to shoo them away: “Go back and sleep, it’s just a little thing. Anyone who saw it would’ve lend a hand; don’t get so excited, everyone disperse!”
Cao Jianhui also helped to send people away, finally getting rid of the classmates who came to gawk.
After things quieted down and seeing Cao Jianhui, Li Fuming, and Wu Longjiang acting all gossipy, Luo Ziling hurriedly warned: “Stop, don’t ask anything. I got hurt today and need to sleep early, gotta take care of myself. I still need to visit a senior tomorrow, don’t bother me.”
Hearing Luo Ziling say this, Cao Jianhui and the others had to deflate and lay down on their beds to play with their phones.
“Boss, a TV reporter wants to interview you!” Luo Ziling was washing up and getting ready to sleep when Cao Jianhui suddenly shouted.
Luo Ziling looked at Cao Jianhui with confusion: “How do you know a reporter wants to interview me?”
“The reporter left me a message.” Cao Jianhui shook his phone proudly.
“What’s going on?” Luo Ziling walked over and snatched Cao Jianhui’s phone from his hands.
He saw a post opened on it, featuring a photo of him and Cao Jianhui. Someone replied to Cao Jianhui saying they were a TV reporter, wanting to interview Luo Ziling, the person involved, and hoping Cao Jianhui could provide contact information.
“Who told you to post my photo?” Luo Ziling was a bit annoyed; he didn’t want to accept the reporter’s interview.
To him, he hadn’t done anything earth-shattering; it was quite ordinary, just lending a hand when passing by.
“I was promoting you, to bring glory to the school and our dorm, hehe, I’m getting my face known by tagging along with you.” Cao Jianhui smiled lewdly, “You haven’t done anything shameful, and we all know that you and Ouyang Huihui only happened to go out, it wasn’t a date. But you did a good deed together, full of positive energy, and we’re proud of you.”
With that, he suddenly reached out to grab the phone from Luo Ziling’s hand.
But Luo Ziling deftly dodged it.
Nevertheless, Luo Ziling still threw the phone back to Cao Jianhui, demanding that he delete the photo.
“Alright,” Cao Jianhui agreed downheartedly.
The next morning, Ouyang Huihui called to invite Luo Ziling to join her in visiting Ouyang Lingyun.
Last night, when they parted, they had agreed to visit Ouyang Lingyun together this morning.
But after the events that transpired last night, Luo Ziling was somewhat reluctant to go with Ouyang Huihui.
However, he eventually couldn’t resist Ouyang Huihui’s persistent persuasion, and went with her.
On the way, Ouyang Huihui asked Luo Ziling: “Did you see the news and the posts online last night?”
“I saw them!” Luo Ziling replied sullenly.
“So many people blessing us to ‘grow old together,’” said Ouyang Huihui, laughing cheekily, before immediately adding, “I would never marry someone like you.”
“That’s good,” Luo Ziling breathed a sigh of relief.
But his sigh of relief immediately drew Ouyang Huihui’s angry glare.
