111: Go Back to Being Strangers

Go Back to Being Strangers

"What?" Su Qianxun froze for a moment. 'Why is she bringing this up all of a sudden?'2

"I'm asking you, is he handsome, tall, and rich? How is he like compared to Xia Chuxi?"

Su Qianxun furrowed her eyebrows. Long Sijue was certainly far more good-looking than Xia Chuxi. Those two were not even in the same league. But if she had to describe Long Sijue's appearance… 

She simply found him indescribable because she had never seen such a "striking" man.

'Ah-ha! "Striking" is the word!

'Of course, as long as one only focuses on his looks and ignores his oppressively cold aura.'

"I don't know how to describe him."

"Is he that ugly… Truth be told, Qianxun, when it comes to men, we shouldn't focus solely on their looks."

Su Qianxun propped her chin in her palm and began to make things up as she stared at the young woman across the table. Eventually, she could no longer think of anything else to say. She picked up the glass of water on the table and started to drink as if her life depended on it.

Su Qianxun did not want to talk about Long Sijue's appearance in front of Gu Mian because she genuinely believed that it was unnecessary. She only had a ten-month contract with him. Once it ended, they would have nothing to do with each other and go back to being strangers.

"By the way, about the issue with the photographs. What are you planning to do about it?" Gu Mian put down the glass of water in her hand and asked. 

"Frankly speaking, those photographs can't prove anything. I was fully clothed in all of them. It's just that everyone chose to see what they wanted to see. All they did was add insult to injury… Now, the director is threatening me with this matter. If I don't listen to him, he'll expel me. The moment I'm expelled from the university, the scandal would be authenticated, and my reputation would be utterly destroyed." Su Qianxun clenched her fists tightly.

"Teaching those scumbags a lesson isn't an urgent concern. It's more important to deal with the situation at hand right now," Gu Mian said. 

"That's what I think as well. I'm also overwhelmed at the moment. I haven't thought of a way to solve this problem." Su Qianxun was rather anxious. The most important thing to a young woman was her reputation. If her reputation was ruined, so was her life.

"I have a plan. It's a bit risky though." On second thought, Gu Mian found the plan rather impractical. She shook her head, suggesting that they should just forget about it.

"What plan? Why don't you tell me about it?" Su Qianxun definitely did not want to be expelled from the university.

Gu Mian proceeded to tell her about the plan. 

After Su Qianxun and Gu Mian parted, the latter headed back to the hotel she was currently staying in. She gave Su Qianxun the address and told Su Qianxun to give her a call should anything happen to her.

Su Qianxun did not return to campus. Considering her current predicament, she would only inflict humiliation upon herself if she went back to the university.

When Su Qianxun returned to Jin Garden, she wanted to look for a voice recorder as she would need it tomorrow.

She asked Aunt Qi where she could obtain a voice recorder. Aunt Qi told her that she might only be able to find it in the young master's study room.

The young woman was now stumped. 'Do I really have to borrow a voice recorder from Long Sijue?

'But if I don't, I won't be able to carry out the plan…'

Su Qianxun had no other choice but to bite the bullet and give Long Sijue a call. She remembered that he was with his fiancée the last time she called him. She honestly did not want to call him if it were not out of desperation! 

The phone kept ringing until it was disconnected. Long Sijue never answered the call. Su Qianxun had no choice but to wait for him to get home.

However, Long Sijue did not come back even though it was way past midnight. 

'Such a bad day.' Crestfallen, Su Qianxun walked towards her bedroom. But she stopped in her tracks when she passed by Long Sijue's study room.

'I can borrow it from him just for a while, right? I will definitely return it to him after I'm done tomorrow.'

As Su Qianxun pondered, she glanced around furtively. Once she made sure that no one was around, she mustered the courage to enter Long Sijue's study room…
