An Actor?

At the same time, Chen Yan was forming a  "strategy”  against Yu Qiaoqiao and her roommates. Yu Qiaoqiao was being questioned by her roommates.

In Kotoshima University, Room 301. 

"Qiaoqiao. Tell the truth. Who is that person?.”

"That's right. Qiaoqiao. Why have I never heard you say anything?."

"That person’s looks are ordinary. Is it your pursuer?.”

Yu Qiaoqiao listened to the roommate’s intense questioning, and said dazedly, "No. No. I...He..."

She hasn't said a complete word, yet her friends couldn’t wait to question her again.

"Qiaoqiao. He gave us a lot of things! He must like you very much, right?"

"Yeah! He’s so affectionate. How do you know him?"

"The man’s look is normal, but he’s really generous. Are you going to start a relationship with him?"

Yu Qiaoqiao was even more flustered, "I...I..."

Yu Qiaoqiao’s friend that accompanied her to meet Chen Yan spoke, "Okay! Don't continue asking. I'll tell you."

Her name is Zhao Ying, she is a very different kind of girl. She is straightforward, carefree, and has a more boyish personality.

Plus learning taekwondo from a young age, it comes with a heroic spirit, and is a well-deserved elder sister in the dormitory.

As soon as she spoke, the roommates suddenly stopped speaking and looked at her expectedly.

Zhao Ying felt the eyes of everyone,  raised her head, coughed, and cleared her throat.

Then from her own perspective, she told the story of Yu Qiaoqiao and Chen Yan.

When she was reciting the interaction, her eyes were brimmed with passion and a hidden glint of gossip.

And, she decided to change most of the story.

A wonderful encounter, the connection of fate, the gentle care, the overbearing love, and the sensational confession this morning.

The group of girls who were holding the urge to speak were shocked.

Yu Qiaoqiao, who was listening, looked at Zhao Ying blankly. There was only one thought in her mind, ‘This is... Me and Chen Yan? Are you sure it's not a novel about an Overbearing CEO?.’

After that, Zhao Ying talked more and more, she talked about "Ten Treasures of One Child", "Dad is Super Fierce" and so on. Yu Qiaoqiao sighed in her heart and decided to ignore her story. (T/L: Those are names of different novels).

She frowned, picked up her phone and took a look, Chen Yan still did not reply to her.

She sighed slightly, put down her phone, took out the movie tickets and buffet tickets given by Chen Yan, and looked at them silently.

The address of these movies and buffet tickets are in a large shopping mall not far from Kotoshima University. The movie is on the fourth floor and the buffet is on the second floor.

That shopping mall, Yu Qiaoqiao passed by when she was on the bus. In the dark night, there was a huge OLED screen flashed with huge photos or advertisements of stars, and the lights feasted and green, showing the bustling city.

Yu Qiaoqiao gently bit her lips.

These tickets shouldn't be cheap...?

Can I still refund them?

Yu Qiaoqiao checked the time, there was still 7 minutes before class.

So, she took the ticket and walked out of the classroom, and then followed the phone number on the back of the ticket and called them one by one.

After 5 minutes, Yu Qiaoqiao sighed and put down the phone in her hand.

She has asked about the movies and buffet tickets,  and they are both non-refundable and non-exchangeable once they are sold.

Even more, the price of the 12 tickets, the total is close to 800 yuan. ($125)

Yu Qiaoqiao looked at the sky outside the window, "800 yuan..." ($125)

That is her living expenses for one and a half months.

Oh... and that bouquet of flowers.

According to her roommate, the 99 flowers in a bunch are very expensive, and it costs 600 to 700 yuan. ($109)

Such a valuable thing, I definitely can't return it. Still I have to find a way to return the money back to Chen Yan.

After all, if I don't return it, how can I justify and explain to him that I don't want to fall in love and that he should stop disturbing me?

Thinking of this, Yu Qiaoqiao was a little at loss.

But, even if it was paid back, Chen Yan still spent the money, and he couldn't get it back. I still owe him so much money.

Can I really treat it as nothing happened?

For a while, Yu Qiaoqiao was even more distressed.

"Ring Ling Ling..."

The class bell rang, and Yu Qiaoqiao patted her delicate and lovely face to cheer herself up.

I came to school to study hard. Throw these things behind you first, so don’t delay your studies.

"Yu Qiaoqiao! Come on!". She clenched her small fist, and puffed her cheeks out cutely.

Then she walked back to the classroom.

Back in the classroom, the roommates have dispersed and stopped talking.

But Yu Qiaoqiao felt that other classmates looked at her a little bit strangely.

Oh, the sensational confession early in the morning, it must have been spread throughout the department right?

The flowers and the movie’s are really eye-catching.

When she thought of this, Yu Qiaoqiao's face turned hot and red involuntarily.

My God. How can I explain myself...

.....

For the next two classes, Yu Qiaoqiao has been trying to study hard.

But...

She found that no matter how much she concentrated, she seemed to be unable to learn.

The "debt" of hundreds of yuan echoed in her mind from time to time. 

Also, the weird expressions that her classmates looked at her just now.

After two more lessons, she had finished her school day.

The teacher dismissed the class. 

Yu Qiaoqiao closed the book with some annoyance: What the dean said is true that premature love is harmful!

I haven't even fallen in love yet, so I can't learn it!

"Qiaoqiao, let's go to the cafeteria." At this moment, Zhao Ying, who was sitting in the next row, stood up and greeted Yu Qiaoqiao.

"Oh, Okay." Yu Qiaoqiao responded aggrievedly, and quickly accelerated the speed of packing her things.

At this moment, the phone she put in her pocket suddenly "buzzed" and vibrated.

Then, there was another "buzzing" vibration.

Someone is texting her..

Yu Qiaoqiao put down her book, then took out her mobile phone, looked at it, and found that she had received several text messages.

[Qiaoqiao, I am Chen Yan. I'm sorry to bother you again. I'm here to apologize to you.]

[Just now I replied to your WeChat and found that you ignored me, so I took the liberty to send you a text message.]

[Actually... I lied to you these past two days. I don't like you at all, and I don't want to chase you. I...am an actor.]

A bunch of imaginary question marks appeared on Yu Qiaoqiao's head: ‘???’.

What the hell!

An Actor? !

What does this have to do with lying to yourself?

She then looked down, [I am doing a mandatory course for actors these days: experiencing human nature. Some other things happened... well, an accident.]

[This led to my confession this morning.]

[Sorry, I troubled you. I'm really sorry.]

Looking at Chen Yan's text message, Yu Qiaoqiao was stunned for a while. While there was a cloud of mud in her head, she also found a "problem" that was not related to the content of the text message.

She replied, [Why do you have my mobile phone number?]

"Buzz."

Chen Yan replied instantly, [It was given by Zhao Ying.]

Yu Qiaoqiao suddenly raised her head and looked at Zhao Ying, who was stretching her waist, biting her lips in annoyance and looking similar to a cute milk cat..
