His Breathtaking and Shimmering Light

Shi Guang hesitated for a moment before looking at Li Fangfei. “Do you think… should help him?”

Li Fangfei bit down on her lips before she chuckled out, “Well… I don’t know! Decide on it yourself alright?”

Huo Zhan stood up and went behind Shi Guang, massaging her shoulder and thumping her back while remarking in a sobbing voice, “Great Queen! We’ve grown up together, and have such a close relationship together! You don’t want to see me having to face death either, right? If I were to die, you would have no bosom buddy anymore! How lonely would your life be by the…”

Shi Guang cut him in his remark, “I know it’s because you can’t bear to die.”

“Now, don’t say that of your bosom buddy.”

“Stop flattering yourself!”

“Well, we’re at least childhood sweethearts then, right?”

“It’s easy for you to say. Gosh, it’s really troublesome, alright?”

Huo Zhan, who was rejected straight up, went back to sit where he was with a dark face. “Little Shi Guang, you’re way too unbuddy! All I want is to ask for your help for a month, and you refuse me even that! Had I known that, I would have unfriended you back in year three of primary school!”

Looking at his infuriated expression, Shi Guang felt her heart soften a little. “One month?”

He nodded his head furiously right away. “That’s right, just one month! After the month, I’ll head back to school. A while after that, I’ll tell my mum that after we tried getting along for a period of time, we found ourselves to be incompatible and broke up.”

Shi Guang was still hesitating. She felt that if she were to do that, things would not really end as easily.

Li Fangfei nudged Shi Guang gently with her elbow. “Or… just help him?”

Shi Guang knitted her brows. “Will it be alright?”

Without giving her any time to back out, Huo Zhan slapped down onto her back with his palm once more. “Of course, it will! We’re agreed then… one month!”

Shi Guang nearly spat out blood once more with that palm slap. “Can’t you be any gentler! I’m a woman.”

Huo Zhan put on a totally enlightened look on his face. “Ah? So, you’re a woman!”

“If I was not a woman, why would you ask me to pretend to be your girlfriend?” Shi Guang sent a kick flying over.

Following suit, Huo Zhan fell over while clutching his chest, lying on the ground with some extremely exaggerated acting such that Shi Guang and Li Fangfei could not help but roar out in laughter.

Gym…

Chu Mubei looked at Lu Yanchen’s fatigued expression, the latter’s eyes seeming to be a little bloodshot. Raising his brows, he asked, “You… couldn’t have broken out of fasting, have you? That’s the reason why you’re not sleeping well at night? Haha, why don’t you find a period of time when we’re freer to do it? We’re so busy recently!”

Lu Yanchen furrowed his brows. “What nonsense are you spouting?”

“Well, your footsteps seem light today and your eyelids are sunken,” Chu Mubei sniggered out naughtily as he teased, “A single look and I can tell that it’s a virgin man breaking out of his ‘fasting’. Because you can’t hold the libido back in, you had to come to the gym to let it out, right? Now, this is going to cause you to faint really easily.”

Lu Yanchen continued with his sit ups, ignoring him with a forehead full of sweat.

“Could I have guessed it wrong? Have you guys not even held hands yet?” Chu Mubei’s eyes widened as his tone mocked with incredulity. He then came to a stop and stood at the side. “I’d say, Old Lu, if you really like her, you should just tell it to her straight. Don’t always get her to just feed your cat or cook your meals. If you don’t make it clear, how would she know that you like her? It’s almost a month now. If you don’t go for it, someone’s going to steal her away. By then, you’ll definitely get flustered…”

Lu Yanchen ignored him still; after doing 100 sit ups, he turned to the side and trained his arms with dumbbells. Meanwhile, Chu Mubei followed over again. “If you don’t wish to say it that badly, then just go sleep with her!”
