“h.e.l.lo, Tang Xiaoyu. Let me re-introduce myself. My Chinese name is…
“Shen Rui.”
The woman went Sparta once he was done re-introducing himself.
She gawked, clearly in shock.
She only spoke after a long pause.
“She-Shen Rui?!”
She could not believe her ears. No amount of guessing would lead her to conclude that this guy was the Little Fatty whom she used to despise!
“Did you just say that you’re Shen Rui?!” She repeated her question in disbelief.
He nodded. His manner was unspeakably elegant. As if a n.o.ble prince fresh out of an oil painting, he was eye-catching.
Eyeing the guy, she became increasingly certain that he was messing with her! She could not link this outstanding person to that fat boy in the past.
“Ha ha ha ha!” She laughed dryly as she refuted it. “How could that be? Isn’t this entirely impossible! How could you be Shen Rui? He’s a fatso!”
“Yes. I used to be fat. I remember how you used to tease me for it because you were unhappy that I became your best friend’s tablemate.”
The guy only found her disbelief hilarious.
Inwardly, he started looking forward to Pei Ge’s reaction when she saw him later.
“Ah! Are you really Fatty Shen?!”
His words caused the woman in front to believe that he was that fat boy she used to laugh at.
“Yes,” he replied teasingly.
She suddenly felt that it was all surreal as she looked at the refined smile on his face.
“B-But you used to be so plump! How… How did you become so skinny and so good-looking?”
More importantly, his entire aura had changed!
Her thoughts began to run wild. “Did you have plastic surgery!”
Her eyes lit up at that.
She thought that she had guessed it right; thus, she became increasingly confident.
“D*mn! You’re good! You actually went and did that! Tell me; which hospital did you get this done? The results are amazing! Wow!”
She looked excitedly at him.
By then, she had completely forgotten about her best friend.
“Sorry to disappoint you, but I didn’t do any of that.”
Egger shook his head exasperatedly. “You’re the same as ever.”
From this… would that woman be the same as she was before.
A gentle smile appeared on his face at this, and his urge to see her surged even more.
“By the way, where is your best friend getting her checkup done? It’s been a while; she should be done by now.”
Tang Xiaoyu only remembered her best friend when she heard his query.
“Oh! She shouldn’t be done yet. We have a deal; it’s that she’ll call me once she’s done with her checkup.”
Speaking of which, she recalled that this guy had a crush on her best friend before. Her eyes lit up as her thoughts went toward matchmaking the two.
“Right, Fatty Shen; do you have a girlfriend?” She blinked inquisitively.
Gu Zhengrong put a stop to this at once, alas.
“Tang Xiaoyu!”
The man, who had been staying silent, showed an ugly expression at this point. It was as if there were flames burning in his eyes.
“Huh?”
The woman froze when she heard her boyfriend’s reprimand and turned to look at him.
She could not fathom what she had done to offend him.
“Mr. Egger and I still have something on; don’t mess around.”
Taking a deep breath, he pulled her to the side.
His actions made the other man’s blue eyes flash across with light. His thin lips then curled a little.
“Zhengrong, I think it’s most important for me to meet my G.o.ddess.”
As he spoke, he grabbed hold of Tang Xiaoyu’s other arm.
His blue eyes peered into her orbs as he replied with a smile, “I don’t have a girlfriend, nor do I have someone I like, and neither am I married.”
His sincere manner of speaking stunned the woman, and then she quickly cheered up.
“Really? That’s great!”
She looked at him with bright eyes. After hearing his reply, she temporarily ignored her boyfriend, who had gone back to acting reticent.
“What do you think of Ge Ge? She’s single!”
She was akin to a big bad wolf baiting a small rabbit at present.
This gave Egger a pause before he asked, “Can I ask if my G.o.ddess is still the same as before?”
“Er…” She got a little upset at his question.
“Why? Does that mean that you won’t like her if she’s different now?”
Seeing her get a little upset, the guy decided not to tease her anymore.
He collected his emotions and replied in a soft but firm voice, “Of course not. It doesn’t matter if she’s fat or skinny, pretty or ugly, or good or bad. I’ll like her as long as she’s Pei Ge.”
As long as she was Pei Ge, he would like her no matter what she turned into.
Right now, he could not wait to see her.
Having not seen her for so many years, he truly missed her.
