Although Guo Yi felt a bit awkward about saying "Could you pretend to be my girlfriend" to Wang Ruotong, Su Rou's words still echoed in his ears. Summoning up his courage, he walked behind Wang Ruotong and tapped her on the shoulder. "Class monitor."
Wang Ruotong was organizing her books. Hearing the familiar voice, she immediately turned around. "Guo Yi, what's up? Do you have any questions you don't understand?"
"Um... no." Hearing the question about not understanding something, Guo Yi instinctively responded, but quickly came to his senses and immediately shook his head. "No, no. I have something to talk to you about."
"What is it? Go ahead." Wang Ruotong asked, with a polite smile on her beautiful face.
"Um, it's just..." Guo Yi found it hard to get the words out. After all, Wang Ruotong was his class monitor, not a girl he liked. It was really difficult to say such things. Guo Yi hesitated for a while. "Forget it. It's nothing."
Wang Ruotong looked at Guo Yi's back in confusion. "What on earth is this guy up to..."
At noon, Xiao Yun came to find Guo Yi. "Hey, Guo Yi, how's it going? Did Wang Ruotong agree?"
Guo Yi looked at the tip of his shoe with a worried face. "No..."
"Didn't agree?" Xiao Yun was a bit surprised. "Your class monitor doesn't seem like such a stingy person. Didn't you explain it clearly to her?"
"Uh, no..." Guo Yi shook his head. "I haven't even said it yet."
"Haven't said it?!" Xiao Yun widened her eyes. "Are you stupid? Don't you want Fei Fei to wake up?"
Guo Yi looked at Xiao Yun embarrassedly. "I do!" Of course he did, but... "I haven't figured out how to bring it up yet!" It wasn't fair to Wang Ruotong to say this, and he didn't want to ruin their good relationship!
Xiao Yun sighed. "You..." Useless! Guo Yi was so carefree in high school. He wasn't a person who was afraid to cause trouble. How come he became like this when it came to matters of the heart?
"..." Guo Yi kept silent, letting Xiao Yun scold him.
"Then when are you going to say it?"
"Um... when I figure out what to say."
"..." Would that be next year?
In the afternoon, Guo Yi went to the hospital to visit Yu Fei as usual. "Xiao Yun, aren't you going?" Usually at this time, Xiao Yun would go with him.
"Yeah, I've got something to do. You go first. I'll come later." Xiao Yun waved at him.
Guo Yi didn't think too much about it. "Then I'll go first."
"Yeah."
After Guo Yi left, Xiao Yun went straight to Guo Yi's class. She knew that Wang Ruotong was a boarding student and wouldn't leave the school gate after school in the afternoon, unless there was something important.
So Xiao Yun easily found Wang Ruotong. She was holding her books and about to go for dinner with her friends. When she saw Xiao Yun, she smiled at her and greeted her actively. "Hello."
"Hello." Xiao Yun nodded. "Are you free now?"
"Yeah, what's up?"
"I'd like to have a chat with you."
Wang Ruotong looked at her friends, nodded at them, then handed her books to them, planning to let them take the books back to the dormitory. Then she looked at Xiao Yun. "Go ahead."
Xiao Yun thought that Wang Ruotong was really a very intelligent girl, so she didn't intend to beat around the bush and got straight to the point. "Well, you saw Yu Fei's situation the day before yesterday, right? We've been trying every means to wake her up, but we've tried so many methods. We've finally achieved a little result, so we're going to keep at it."
Wang Ruotong nodded and suddenly seemed to understand. "So, in this method of yours, you want me to help, right?"
"Yes." Xiao Yun said with a smile. "Sure enough, the class monitor is really smart."
Wang Ruotong said thoughtfully, "So, Guo Yi was going to tell me this this morning? But what's so hard about saying it?" She wasn't a heartless person. Of course she would help if she could.
Xiao Yun looked a bit helpless. "This matter... You know that a vegetative person needs a stimulus to wake up. We're planning to ask you to... pretend to be Guo Yi's girlfriend."
"..." Wang Ruotong was speechless for a moment. "Pretend?"
"Yes." Xiao Yun looked at her intently. "Because you're quite familiar with Guo Yi. But if you really don't want to, then forget it."
Wang Ruotong pursed her lips. "Sure, I'm willing to help."
"Really?" Xiao Yun had suspected that Wang Ruotong liked Guo Yi before. Now that she agreed so readily, could it be that she really liked him? "Thank you." Xiao Yun gave her a big smile. "We'll reward you."
"Hehe, there's no need for a reward." Wang Ruotong said with a soft laugh. "We're all classmates."
Xiao Yun looked at Wang Ruotong playfully. "Do you really just regard Guo Yi as a classmate?"
Wang Ruotong's expression froze for a moment, but she quickly covered it up. "Of course it's just a classmate. What else could it be?"
Xiao Yun just smiled but said nothing, but still thanked her sincerely. "Thank you."
...
That night, Xiao Yun sent a text message to Su Rou: Rou Rou, Wang Ruotong has agreed. But that Guo Yi is really useless. He didn't even dare to say it! I sorted it out for him!
Su Rou replied quickly: It's good that she agreed!
Su Yuze walked over and took the phone from Su Rou's hand. "Pregnant women should use their phones less. Be careful of the radiation."
"I just replied to a text message." Su Rou was a bit unhappy. Didn't those pregnant women still go to work in the company? Would the babies they gave birth to all be deformed?
"If you want to reply, just tell me. I'll reply for you." Su Yuze said.
"..." Su Rou opened her mouth. "You're... blatantly peeping at my privacy."
"Xiao Rou'er, we've already got our marriage certificates. We're husband and wife. Do husband and wife still need privacy?" Su Yuze said. They were not only husband and wife but had also lived together for nineteen years. In that case, where could her privacy be?
"Why not?" Of course everyone had their privacy.
Seeing this, Su Yuze raised his eyebrows. "I don't even hide any private money."
"Pfft..." Su Rou was amused. She wouldn't mind even if he hid some private money.
The phone in Su Yuze's hand vibrated a few more times. Su Yuze looked at the content and there was a playful look on his face. So this was how girls chatted... "Xiao Rou'er, how do you want to reply?"
"Let me think..." Su Rou thought for a while.
Su Yuze smiled and started typing on the phone on his own: Xiao Rou'er is going to sleep. If you have something to say, talk to her tomorrow.
Xiao Yun replied quickly: Okay. Good night, Boss Su!
Oh my god! It was so scary. How come it was Su Yuze chatting with her?
