The Goddess is a Little Pitiful, I Invested in Her! - Chapter 37

Chapter 37: Lian Qingxue avoiding Qi Yun!

In the evening, at the orphanage.

Lian Qingxue was confiding in Xiao Yu while hugging her.

“It’s really annoying. I’ve already said I don’t like them, but they act like they can’t understand human words.” Lian Qingxue felt wronged.

“It’s normal, Qingxue. You are so beautiful. It’s natural for boys to like you.” Xiao Yu comforted her.

“But I don’t want to be liked by other boys!” Lian Qingxue said.

“You don’t want to be liked by other boys? So what? You only want to be liked by Qi Yun?” Xiao Yu teased her with a smile.

“Xiao Yu!” Lian Qingxue protested.

“In my opinion, they all want to be your boyfriend, right? You just say you have a boyfriend and that’s it. Isn’t Qi Yun your boyfriend now?” Xiao Yu asked curiously.

“I don’t know.” Lian Qingxue was a bit confused.

“You don’t know?” Xiao Yu was surprised: “Everyone with eyes can see what’s going on between you two. How can you not know?”

“Because… we never made it clear. Actually, I don’t know what our relationship is.” As a rookie in love, Lian Qingxue felt her mind was messy.

To say that she and Qi Yun were lovers, it didn’t seem like it.

But friends were not enough to describe their relationship either.

They were more like a natural fit for each other.

“So Qi Yun never confessed to you?” Xiao Yu widened her eyes.

“Confess? No, I guess?” Lian Qingxue said.

“You like him so much without him confessing?” Xiao Yu thought that Lian Qingxue and Qi Yun had already confirmed their relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend.

But it turned out that they hadn’t even talked about it clearly.

But her best friend was already deeply in love!

She might not marry anyone else but him.

Lian Qingxue shook her head: “I don’t need him to like me. I just like him.”

“And besides, I know he likes me.” Lian Qingxue blinked her eyes and smiled foolishly.

Xiao Yu was dizzy by Lian Qingxue’s smile and sighed helplessly: “You are such a fool. Love without confession is incomplete! And besides, if you like someone, you should tell them loudly. They will be happy!”

Lian Qingxue heard this and blinked her eyes again, as if thinking about something.

…

The next morning, after the morning self-study session ended, Qi Yun finished his breakfast.

As soon as he returned to his seat, he saw an envelope in his desk.

The envelope was thick and had three big words on it: For Qi Yun.

Qi Yun smiled as soon as he saw it.

This was Lian Qingxue’s handwriting.

He opened the envelope.

He took a look and was stunned immediately.

Inside was a stack of neatly arranged hundred-yuan bills.

He roughly counted them and there were eighty or ninety of them.

This envelope had almost eight or nine thousand yuan in it.

He turned his head to look for Lian Qingxue, but found that Lian Qingxue had already left the classroom.

…

“Qi Yun, what are you doing here? The flag-raising ceremony is about to start!” Teacher Xu walked to the classroom door and saw Qi Yun. He urged him immediately.

“Oh, I’m coming!” Qi Yun put the envelope in his pocket and followed Teacher Xu out.

The flag-raising ceremony was on the playground.

When Qi Yun and Teacher Xu arrived, all the senior three students had already lined up on the playground.

Yi Zhong was a big school. There were ten classes in senior three alone, with five or six hundred people.

They looked like a dark mass on the playground.

On the east side of the playground, next to the flagpole, there was a high podium.

Qi Yun and Lian Qingxue would both speak here.

Qi Yun saw some figures next to the podium.

One looked like a leader, one was arranging the podium, and one seemed to be checking the microphone wires or something on the podium.

He even walked up to the podium, tapped the microphone twice, and then shouted into it: “Hello, hello, good…”

He didn’t know what was good.

Lian Qingxue was also here. She acted as if she didn’t see Qi Yun. She looked around, but didn’t look at Qi Yun.

…

After a while, the vice principal finished his speech.

Lian Qingxue walked up to the podium.
