The Romance Extras Turned Out to Be a Yuri Story - Chapter 15

Zhang Qiu also crouched down next to her: “Then I’ll wait with you.”

She didn’t ask Lin Luoluo if she was in a bad mood, but instead smiled and started talking about the interesting things that happened during her internship.

“I just started today, and the teacher guiding me asked me to handle reception.”

“I thought it would be very simple, but I didn’t expect the people I was receiving were parties involved in a divorce mediation case.”

“I didn’t know they were getting a divorce, so I arranged for both of them to be in the same reception room. They almost started fighting! Luckily the teacher arrived quickly and pulled them apart, otherwise, I probably would have been fired on my first day.”

“How could that be!” Lin Luoluo gradually became engrossed, tilting her head to look at Zhang Qiu. “You didn’t do it on purpose!”

“Exactly, so the teacher only criticized me and told me to write a self-criticism to hand in tomorrow.”

Zhang Qiu looked at Lin Luoluo, whose beautiful eyes were squinted in a smile. “How about that? After hearing about my miserable experience, do you feel a little better?”

Lin Luoluo pursed her lips: “Who comforts people like that?”

“Didn’t they say that seeing a situation more miserable than your own brings a little comfort?” Zhang Qiu also tilted her head to look at Lin Luoluo.

The setting sun cast a dim light on her face, and the shadow that spread out behind her was partially blocked by her slight figure. Lin Luoluo felt much better.

She covered her mouth and chuckled: “How is that a miserable experience?”

“Isn’t it miserable enough?” Zhang Qiu pretended to ponder, but quickly gave up, smiling as she said: “My life hasn’t been too tragic, I guess, so I really can’t dig up any truly miserable stories.”

“But do you want to hear an embarrassing one?”

Lin Luoluo’s eyes were momentarily stunned.

Isn’t Zhang Qiu’s life tragic?

Orphaned, living only with her grandmother, relying entirely on scholarships and government subsidies for her education.

She tightened her lips, looked at Zhang Qiu for a moment, and then smiled.

“Tell me.”

“Ah, that involves my Puppy Pi. Pi is my Labrador, and I adopted him. It was my first time having a dog, so there are always accidents. That day, I accidentally stepped on Pi’s tail as I entered the house. The silly dog deliberately took revenge that night by peeing a large puddle under my bed.”

“It stank for three days before I finally found the culprit.”

“I was going to beat him up, but then the silly dog ate something bad and I had to take him to the vet, losing several hundred [Yuan] just like that.”

“Seeing how pathetic he looked, not only did I not have the heart to punish him, but I even gave him an extra chicken drumstick.”

Zhang Qiu lowered her eyes, lamenting her soft-heartedness at the time, which now made the silly dog lawless, only listening when Grandma spoke.

Lin Luoluo couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

Seeing her laugh, Zhang Qiu also curved her eyes, looking at her with gentle affection.

Lin Luoluo’s face flushed slightly. She coughed and lifted her chin slightly, saying: “Alright, in exchange for making me, the Young Lady, laugh today, I’ll treat you to a meal tomorrow.”

“Are you free tomorrow?” Lin Luoluo sounded a little uncertain.

Zhang Qiu nodded.

“Lunch works.”

“But I won’t be at school in the morning.”

She smiled at Lin Luoluo: “I’ve been interning at a law firm recently.”

“Then I’ll come find you!” Lin Luoluo blurted out.

“No classes tomorrow?” Zhang Qiu countered.

Lin Luoluo thought about it, then shook her head decisively.

Zhang Qiu stood up, pulling Lin Luoluo up with her: “Your car’s here. I’ll send you the address on your phone.”

Zhang Qiu watched Lin Luoluo get into the car before turning to walk back into the school.

She hadn’t gone far when she ran into Fang Duo, who had just finished a meeting.

Fang Duo enthusiastically waved at her: “Vice President! You’re off work.” She jogged closer, pushed up her glasses, and reported to Zhang Qiu: “Vice President, you weren’t at school today, so you don’t know how those women were trying to get close to the President! I stopped all of them for you! The President can only belong to the Vice President!”

Fang Duo clenched her fist, looking extremely serious.

She absolutely had to ship this couple!

Forget the Lin family’s Young Lady! Forget the senior student Miss Zuo! None of them should even think about breaking up the couple she was shipping!

Zhang Qiu looked at Fang Duo with a slight headache. “Gu Beichen and I have already broken up…”

“Vice President, don’t worry! I’ll keep an eye on the President for you while you’re not at school these days!”

“That Lin family Young Lady, didn’t she participate in the election just to get close to the President? I already made her look bad today. Eventually, she’ll know to retreat! She shouldn’t think about using student council matters to bother the President!”

“Fang Duo.” Zhang Qiu’s expression became solemn at this point. “The student council is not a fighting arena. As a council member, you must lead by example. If even you are being unreasonable, how can we be confident in entrusting the student council to you?”

“Vice President…” Fang Duo murmured. “I’ve been doing my student council work properly.” She lowered her eyes, looking uneasy. “Lin Luoluo didn’t join the student council to work, that’s why I targeted her.”

“Have you given her a chance? Do you know what kind of person she is?” Zhang Qiu sighed: “Don’t let me influence your judgment, Fang Duo. Don’t let me down.”

These words were quite heavy for Fang Duo.

Because Fang Duo came from a similar modest background as Zhang Qiu, both being students from humble families, she had always looked up to Zhang Qiu as a role model.

Zhang Qiu was essentially her Cinderella.

Cinderella should be with the Prince—this was Fang Duo’s obsession.

Looking at Zhang Qiu, it seemed as if her own dreams were being fulfilled.

Zhang Qiu patted Fang Duo’s shoulder: “Think carefully about what I’ve said.”

She didn’t want Fang Duo to become the same kind of person as Gu Beichen.

Everyone should have their own way of living, not just live as someone else’s shadow.

Back home, as Lin Luoluo opened the door, a clang-clang-clang sound rang out, confetti showered down, and her mother, Tan Yi, immediately hugged her, rubbing her cheek against hers.

“Did my good girl miss Mommy? Your brother said you were asking about Mommy yesterday. If you missed Mommy, why didn’t you call? Let Mommy get a good look at you! Oh dear, you’ve gotten a little thinner!” She then hugged and rubbed her again.

Lin Luoluo finally managed to break free from her mother’s overly enthusiastic embrace, saying helplessly: “I haven’t lost weight. I weighed myself this morning, and I haven’t.”

“My baby’s been away from Mommy for so long, of course you’re thinner. Look how small your face is.” Tan Yi pinched Lin Luoluo’s little face. “Mommy’s back, and I’ll make sure to nourish you well!”

Lin Luoluo felt a headache coming on and looked at Lin Xiangdong for help. Lin Xiangdong received the signal and quickly rescued his sister.

“Mom, didn’t you say you’d wait for my sister to come back to give out the gifts?”

“Where’s your Dad? Wasn’t he supposed to get the gifts?”

“Here I come!” Lin Dad pushed a shopping cart full of gifts out from the inner room. The cart was piled high, and the butler was beside it, making sure nothing fell out.

“Mom, you bought this much?” Lin Xiangdong’s eyes widened, and Lin Luoluo’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch.

She really didn’t know how all these things were brought back. But since her family had a private jet, it wasn’t a big problem.

Lin Mom took the cart and smiled at Lin Luoluo: “I accidentally missed your eighteenth birthday, so these are all your birthday gifts, nineteen in total, plus one is your birthday gift for this year, making up for it in advance. There will be more later.”

Lin Luoluo was so touched her eyes became teary.

“Mom, thank you.”

“What about mine?” Lin Xiangdong deliberately asked from the side. “Didn’t you say I had gifts too?”

“You’ll get yours later. I haven’t finished giving my surprise to your sister yet.”

“This much, and there’s still a surprise?” Lin Xiangdong mumbled.

In other families, sons were favored over daughters, but in theirs, it was the opposite. If Lin Luoluo hadn’t personally said that managing the company was too exhausting, the Lin family heir probably wouldn’t have been him. Even so, his mother and father wished they could give all their assets to his sister, feeling they were shortchanging her. He was merely the bitter person helping Lin Luoluo manage her assets—although he did have a small part of the assets himself.

The Lin family’s ancestral motto: A son must forge his own path! A daughter must be pampered! Also, listening to your wife will bring wealth!

In any case, it was a strange set of rules that only the Lin family knew, and they didn’t dare share it widely.

After all, outsiders envied the Lin family for having a son and a daughter with no battle for inheritance!

“Oh, and I have one more important thing to announce!”

Lin Luoluo thought it was another surprise.

“Didn’t you always want to marry Gu Beichen? Your father talked it over with the Gu family head this time, and now Gu Beichen is your fiancé!”

Lin Luoluo’s smile froze on her face.

System prompt: [Host, breathe in.]

[Host, breathe out.]

She took a long breath, and opened her mouth.

System: [If you dare to say it, we’ll die together.]

Lin Luoluo closed her mouth again.

Tan Yi pulled her into a hug, rubbing Lin Luoluo’s head: “See, the child is so happy she’s speechless!”

That wasn’t being speechless with joy; it was being speechless with fright.

Lin Luoluo hadn’t expected it to be so sudden. Although she had received Zhang Qiu’s blessings, she… she didn’t like Gu Beichen at all!

She only pretended to like Gu Beichen because of the System’s mission!

Compared to him, she preferred the female lead.

Preferred the female lead.

Lin Luoluo was completely stiff.

Could she be gay???
