Chapter 17: Qi Sui Said Sansan is a Stalker Fan
Feng Sa, who was inexplicably given a “good person” card: [?]
How did he become a good person?
Su Mu felt relieved because of Feng Sa’s words, and she slightly curved her lips: [I’ll treat you to a meal tomorrow, you choose the place]
Feng Sa: [Why? Did you get rich?]
Su Mu: [Because you’re a decent person]
The higher-ups had said not to spread the word, yet he immediately told her.
Feng Sa: [???]
Su Mu put away her phone. For now, her crisis was averted.
It seemed her answers to No. 73’s questions were satisfactory, without raising suspicion. Or perhaps it was the final trick with the moon water that had worked.
Su Mu planned not to stream next week. She knew too little at this point and wanted to wait at least until she completed the herbalism exam task and unlocked the next page of the “Witch’s Code.”
Hopefully, nothing unexpected would happen.
Su Mu opened a can of Coke to celebrate and then opened her textbook to start studying.
…
The next day.
Su Mu stood in a small noodle shop outside the school, her expression blank, a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
She had said she would treat Feng Sa to a meal, and he could choose any place. But as someone who grew up with her, Feng Sa knew her family’s financial situation well, so he chose a very cheap noodle shop.
…The most expensive noodle dish didn’t exceed thirty yuan.
Su Mu roughly estimated her income from the previous night. After deducting the platform’s share and Xiao Ding’s 30%, she was left with at least a hundred thousand yuan.
Well, she had money that she couldn’t even spend.
Su Mu didn’t order noodles. Instead, she sat at a table, waiting for Feng Sa.
She habitually pulled out her textbook, intending to read a few pages while she waited.
This noodle shop was small, with six or seven tables inside. At the moment, only the table next to hers had two customers, making it rather quiet.
“Su Mu?”
“Wow! Brother Qi, how about we eat here today?”
Su Mu didn’t lift her head, her cool face showing no change in expression.
A group of people had already entered the noodle shop, and Qi Sui, half-pushed and half-pulled, did not refuse them.
“Su Mu! Eating alone?” A boy sat across from Su Mu, grinning mischievously. “What happened? Did you get depressed after failing to confess to Brother Qi?”
Su Mu turned a page.
“I’m talking to you,” the boy said, pulling her book away. “Why aren’t you responding? Are you embarrassed?”
“Hahaha, now you know what embarrassment is? Weren’t you acting all high and mighty after failing to confess to Brother Qi?”
“Hey, Su Mu, right? Look up at us, will you? We’ve only heard about you, never seen you before!”
The group of boys chattered one after another. Finally, the girl sitting there lifted her head, her expression icy:
“What exactly do you want?”
Today, she had her hair in a low ponytail, with stray strands falling around her face. Her light-colored dress was clean and simple, and her eyes, as cold as the moon, gave an inexplicable sense of distance and mystery.
The boys fell silent for a moment, then suddenly all looked at Qi Sui.
Qi Sui also thought Su Mu looked very beautiful today. Sitting there, even without showing her delicate face, her entire demeanor was captivating, making her seem like a great beauty.
He had been a bit lost in thought. When everyone around him suddenly looked at him, he tensed slightly, and the words came out of his mouth before he could think, “Did you know I’d be walking this way and deliberately come here to attract my attention?”
“…” Su Mu reached out, her fair, jade-like fingers drawing the attention of many boys as she took back the book from the boy across the table. Her indifferent voice carried a natural chill, “If you have nothing to do, go away. Don’t bother me.”
Qi Sui felt a bit humiliated, “Even if you act like this, I won’t like you. Give up! Stay away from me from now on!”
“Fine,” Su Mu agreed immediately.
She didn’t want to get entangled with this person anymore. Even though she managed to hold onto her identity as a witch for now, she still had a lot to do and was not at leisure.
“…” Qi Sui was surprised by her response and choked up.
“Hey, Su Mu,” someone questioned, “you really don’t like Brother Qi anymore? Who are you kidding? You don’t stay in the dormitory, you don’t stay in the library, you come here to read? Don’t tell me you came to eat! You didn’t even order anything, did you?”
Su Mu grew impatient. Her eyes, already cold, turned as chilling as ice blades. “Stay away from me. Don’t bother me!”
The boy across from her froze, his mind blank for a moment, even forgetting to breathe.
Those nearby who hadn’t met Su Mu’s eyes directly also felt the terrifying aura!
The noodle shop fell silent instantly.
A few seconds later, one of the boys who realized he had been scared by a girl who didn’t even look of age changed his expression. He pushed his chair back with a sharp sound. “Su Mu! What do you mean?”
Qi Sui, his face darkened, added, “You use this kind of method to attract my attention, and then you won’t let anyone talk? Su Mu, you’re really disgusting!”
The boy’s words just now reminded him. Su Mu was here alone, not eating, reading a book. What kind of joke was this?
Was this a coincidence?
She must have known he was coming this way and deliberately put on a show!
So he was being watched?
Was she out of her mind?
Su Mu rarely got angry, but now she could feel her patience wearing thin. Yet Qi Sui continued:
“You said last time that you wouldn’t bother me anymore? So this is your way of not bothering me anymore? Su Mu! You’re just like those stalker fans!”
Endure…
Su Mu couldn’t endure it anymore.
Just as she was about to react, a familiar lazy voice came from outside the crowd:
“Oh? How come your mouth only knows how to spout bullshit?”
Feng Sa heard Qi Sui’s voice from outside. He had been wondering what Qi Sui’s expression would look like when angry. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered, he saw Qi Sui with a group of people surrounding Sansan.
Feng Sa immediately felt displeased.
After all, this little neighbour was also considered a half childhood friend.
Qi Sui turned around coldly, “Feng Sa, what do you mean?”
Naturally, he also recognized Feng Sa, who was rumored in the neighboring school to be like a star.
“What do I mean?” Feng Sa pushed aside a guy and walked directly to Su Mu’s side, placing a hand on the girl’s shoulder in a protective gesture. “Being so rude to a girl, I really wonder where your reputation as the school’s heartthrob comes from!”
Feng Sa was eighteen this year, a freshman, in the prime of his life. His youthful and unrestrained arrogance was fully displayed.
Upon entering the school, he became a hot pursuit target of senior girls due to his handsome appearance and a particularly lazy demeanor.
Later, with his reputation as a top student and skilled pianist, he became a prominent figure in the school within half a semester.
Such a character, standing beside the cool and gentle girl, looked exceptionally compatible.
Thank you for the chapter! 🙏
