Chapter 140: What’s Your Relationship With the School Hunk?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After eating with Huo Yichen, Murong Qiao bade farewell and returned to the dormitory.
As soon as she opened the door, she heard Yang Xin’s loud voice.
“You’re back from eating with the school hunk?” Seeing Murong Qiao return, Yang Xin grabbed her shoulder, her face filled with gossip.
When she saw Huo Yichen stop her today, Yang Xin couldn’t help but want to ask.
“School hunk?” Murong Qiao was puzzled for a moment before realizing who Yang Xin was talking about.
With Huo Yichen’s face, it was not strange for him to become the school hunk.
“Who is he? What’s his relationship with you? Tell me the truth.” Yang Xin’s eyes were filled with excitement.
Before Murong Qiao returned just now, the two of them had been gossiping in the dormitory.
This was because Huo Yichen with his height and aura was obviously not an ordinary person. Moreover, the way he looked at Murong Qiao was different from how he looked at them.
Yang Xin immediately concluded that there was something going on between Murong Qiao and Huo Yichen.
Zheng Yue had returned before Murong Qiao, so she also knew about this.
“Not related. We were just high school cla.s.smates,” Murong Qiao explained.
She felt that Yang Xin was just exaggerating.
Her relationship with Huo Yichen was at most that of a friend. Seeing that Yang Xin obviously wanted to find out about their relationship, Murong Qiao felt a little helpless.
Zheng Yue looked at Murong Qiao’s frank answer and immediately felt a little envious.
Murong Qiao actually knew such a handsome man like Huo Yichen.
Compared to Murong Qiao, who did not pay attention to the outside world, Zheng Yue had a deeper understanding of Huo Yichen’s popularity today.
When she was backstage, there were already five or six people asking him for his WeChat.
“Liar.” Yang Xin denied Murong Qiao’s explanation. “Why would your high school cla.s.smate look at you so pa.s.sionately?”
Although Murong Qiao’s att.i.tude towards Huo Yichen was not warm, Yang Xin and the others could still tell that the two of them were very close when they left together.
At the very least, from Huo Yichen’s att.i.tude, it could be seen that their relationship was definitely not as weak as that of just high school cla.s.smates.
However, they also knew Murong Qiao. If she could say such a thing, it meant that she was telling the truth.
“You don’t even know how to cherish such handsomeness.” Yang Xin curled her lips, “What a pity.”
Just the fact that Huo Yichen was able to win the t.i.tle of ‘School Hunk’ as soon as he entered school was enough to show how handsome he was.
Seeing that Murong Qiao was not interested in him, Yang Xin rolled her eyes and asked again.
“Does he have a girlfriend?” As soon as she asked this, even Jiang Weiwei, who was reading in the distance, turned her head and stared at Murong Qiao.
Girlfriend?
Murong Qiao was stunned. Recalling the Huo Yichen she had seen today, she shook her head uncertainly.
“I don’t know.” The two of them weren’t that close yet, and Murong Qiao didn’t know about Huo Yichen’s interpersonal relationships. Strictly speaking, today was the first time they had met in a while.
The meal just now was strange, so Murong Qiao was not in the mood to chat with him.
“The school hunk is so handsome. If he doesn’t have a girlfriend, I really want to give it a try.” Yang Xin’s eager look didn’t look like she was joking.
Jiang Weiwei also looked over and nodded, obviously agreeing with Yang Xin’s words.
“He’s very outstanding.” Jiang Weiwei also admitted that Huo Yichen was very attractive. Not only was his academic results top-notch, but his looks were also outstanding. It was only the first day of school, but many people were already planning to find him to confess to him.
Zheng Yue watched as everyone spoke one after another. She sat at the side and watched silently without interrupting.
She had seen Huo Yichen backstage before. The first time she saw him, she was stunned.
Zheng Yue recalled what happened today. Huo Yichen stood beside her and spoke in a clear and orderly manner. His voice was also very pleasant. Just talking to Huo Yichen made her heart beat faster.
Zheng Yue was so engrossed in her recollection that she didn’t notice Yang Xin’s question.
“Zheng Yue?” Yang Xin called out to her again. She reached out and poked her shoulder, trying to attract her attention.
After calling her name several times, Zheng Yue realized that she was calling her name. She came back to her senses and looked at Yang Xin.
“I’m asking you just now. What did it feel like to go on stage with the school hunk today?” Yang Xin looked at Zheng Yue and asked curiously.
Just now, they were discussing whether to pursue Huo Yichen. They almost forgot that there was someone beside them who had interacted with Huo Yichen.
Zheng Yue had just attended the school opening ceremony and was Huo Yichen’s partner so she must have interacted with him.
“Huh?” Zheng Yue did not expect the problem to involve her.
Looking at the few people staring at her, she subconsciously became nervous.
How was Huo Yichen?
This question brought up Zheng Yue’s broken memories again.
Zheng Yue was extremely nervous when she was rehearsing her speech with Huo Yichen backstage, but when she heard Huo Yichen’s voice at that time, she subconsciously relaxed. His voice was extremely pleasant, like a clear spring flowing in one’s heart, making one unconsciously immerse themselves in it.
Moreover, Huo Yichen was calm and self-controlled when he communicated with her. When he encountered trouble, he would resolve it in a clear manner. Zheng Yue admired him for being able to resolve problems so easily.
The more she thought about it, the redder Zheng Yue’s face became.
She lowered her head. In her mind, the two of them were standing side by side on the stage tonight. There were a few times when she almost said the wrong words, but the other party was very tactful and helped her.
As Zheng Yue’s heart warmed, she thought of Huo Yichen’s good-looking face and lowered her head even more. She looked like she wanted to bury her head in her chest.
“H-he’s pretty good. I was too nervous at that time and didn’t notice much.” Zheng Yue’s mumbling voice sounded faintly.
Not getting the answer she wanted, Yang Xin pouted and looked away from Zheng Yue.
Jiang Weiwei looked at Zheng Yue. From her angle, she could see Zheng Yue’s unclear expression. Seeing that her face was slightly red, Jiang Weiwei did not think that it was caused by Huo Yichen and simply thought that she was feeling hot.
While they were discussing Huo Yichen, there was also a post on the forum that was gradually gaining popularity.
It was a photo of Huo Yichen, the most popular boy in the past two days.
When it came to such an influential figure, everyone clicked on it at the same time.
Seeing that it was a photo of Huo Yichen eating with someone, everyone first sighed at Huo Yichen’s handsomeness. Only then did they see the other protagonist in the photo.
[Who is this girl? She’s so beautiful. Isn’t she prettier than the current school belle?]
Everyone slowly turned their attention to the other person.
The school hunk was a popular figure now. Many girls were secretly paying attention to Huo Yichen’s latest movements, but they didn’t expect to see a girl eating with the school hunk on the very first day.
[I saw that it was the school hunk Huo who took the initiative to ask her out for dinner tonight. What right does she have?!]
Soon, the onlookers who had witnessed Huo Yichen and Murong Qiao started talking.
At that time, everyone had just come out from the ceremony venue, and Huo Yichen was very eye-catching, so many people saw the two of them leave together.
[What’s the use of having a pretty face? The school hunk is the heir of the Huo family. Is she worthy of him?]
[In my opinion, this girl’s methods are really brilliant. She actually hooked up with the school hunk as soon as school started.]
[However, I have to say that the two of them look very compatible when they sit together. Especially the school hunk Huo’s gaze, it’s so gentle that water can be squeezed out of it. Who would believe that she’s not his girlfriend?]
[Just based on looks, 1 approve of this marriage!]
There were no restrictions on the students’ comments on the forum. For a moment, there were all kinds of comments. However, everyone discussed the girl in the photo and wanted to know who she was..
