Chapter 796: Chapter 796: Pig... Miss, let me explain

Chen Shu was frightened by Shi Yaoguang.

He had never imagined that his sister-in-law could become so fierce.

Although he had gained a certain understanding of Shi Yaoguang when they first met,

After all, she was someone who could emerge unscathed from a group beating.

Even though he found this out later, it didn’t prevent him from being shocked.

His sister-in-law was truly too awesome.

He had to admit defeat.

In order to ensure his sister-in-law didn’t casually snap him like a twig, Chen Shu decided he had to cling tightly to her coattails from now on.

"Are you sure Quan Jinbei won’t hit you once he finds out what you’re thinking?"

Upon hearing Shi Yaoguang’s teasing question, Chen Shu realized he had inadvertently spoken his thoughts aloud.

Normally, that wouldn’t be an issue.

However...

It was a bit embarrassing to be overheard by Shi Yaoguang.

He immediately clarified, "I didn’t mean anything by it, sister-in-law, please don’t misunderstand!"

Chen Shu looked at her with a pleading face, "Sister-in-law, could you perhaps spare me a little for the sake of our past friendship?"

"In return, I could take you to see Old Jiu’s online romance!"

Shi Yaoguang was somewhat speechless upon hearing Chen Shu directly selling out Jiu Yanchuan’s online romantic interest, "Aren’t you afraid Jiu Yanchuan will come after you?"

"Ha, I believe Old Jiu will understand me!"

While saying this, he snickered sleazily, "Old Jiu hasn’t even met his online love face-to-face, whether it’s a person or a ghost he’s got no clue, if I help investigate a bit, I’m sure he’ll be very happy!"

Shi Yaoguang rolled her eyes at his sophistry and bluntly said, "I’m afraid that’s just your own wishful thinking."

Indeed, that was the case, but Chen Shu was determined not to admit it.

"Sister-in-law, we’re bound to meet her sooner or later anyway, so why don’t you just come with me to check it out?"

As Chen Shu spoke, his voice took on a singsong quality, "Pretty please~"

Hearing his voice, Shi Yaoguang rubbed her arms, "I’ve got goosebumps all over, school doctor, can you not be conscious?"

"Nope!"

Shi Yaoguang looked stern, "Are you really going to meet Jiu Yanchuan’s girlfriend behind his back? Are you sure he won’t hit you?"

"He won’t."

Chen Shu initially spoke with conviction.

But soon, he wavered.

He hesitated, "Cough, Old Jiu and I have been friends for so many years, he wouldn’t be so petty, right?"

"Are you sure?"

Shi Yaoguang asked again.

Chen Shu: "..."

Alright then.

The truth was, he wasn’t so sure after all.

He felt quite guilty.

"Well, I think... considering how tight Old Jiu and I are, he definitely wouldn’t disapprove of me."

Shi Yaoguang stayed silent, just quietly observing him with her gaze.

Chen Shu: "..."

Alright, alright.

He felt guilty.

"Forget it, I’d better not go see her."

Shi Yaoguang acknowledged with a grunt and then continued walking on campus.

Chen Shu caught up with her, "Sister-in-law, even though I can’t pre-approve Old Jiu’s girl for him, I can still accompany you at work!"

"Accompany me at work?"

Chen Shu straightened his back, "Have you forgotten why I am here? Shouldn’t you be looking for Professor Lin now? I am too."

"So, we’re heading the same way."

Shi Yaoguang nodded, "Then let’s go together."

"Sure thing!"

Chen Shu said, and then very obsequiously stood by Shi Yaoguang’s side, exuding an air of borrowed authority.

Shi Yaoguang, seeing him like this, couldn’t help but cover her eyes.

It was simply too cringeworthy to look at.

Chen Shu, however, didn’t seem to think there was anything wrong with his behavior and immediately flashed a toothy grin, "Sis-in-law, let me tell you..."

Before he could finish, he exclaimed in surprise, "It’s her!"

Shi Yaoguang instinctively followed his pointing finger with her gaze.

It was an adorable-looking girl.

She immediately asked, "Do you know her?"

Chen Shu couldn’t contain his voice and blurted out loudly, "She is a ’Pink Pig’!"

Shi Yaoguang: "..."

The cute girl on the other side also looked over.

There was a hint of surprise in her eyes.

After locking eyes with Chen Shu for a moment, the girl took the initiative to come over.

Her first reaction was that she was attracted by Chen Shu calling out her online nickname.

As she got closer, she recognized Shi Yaoguang’s identity.

"Empress of Shadows! I’m so happy to meet you here, I’m your fan!"

The girl’s face was full of excitement, so focused on Shi Yaoguang that she forgot the reason she came over.

Chen Shu hadn’t even caught his breath when their eyes met.

She pursed her lips and asked, "How do you know I am ’Pink Pig’?"

With that, a trace of confusion appeared in her eyes, "Do you know me?"

Chen Shu stuttered, "Sh-should know, I guess..."

Hearing his hesitant tone, the girl started to feel uncertain, "How do you know I’m ’Pink Pig’? I rarely add friends, and apart from Chuanliu Buxi, all the friends I’ve added are people I know."

With that, she scrutinized Chen Shu closely before declaring with conviction, "I don’t know you."

Then she asked, "Are you Chuanliu Buxi?"

Chen Shu looked somewhat embarrassed, "No, no I’m not..."

"Not?" The girl furrowed her brow, "Then who are you? How do you know me?"

Chen Shu blurted out sloppily, "Isn’t your nickname ’Pink Pig’? And your profile picture is of yourself, so it’s only normal that I’d know, right?"

Hearing this, the girl’s eyes went wide, "You’re saying my profile picture is of myself?"

"Yes, yes," Chen Shu said, hesitating, "Could it be someone used your photo for online romance?"

The girl shook her head.

Before Chen Shu could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard her say, "You must be Chuanliu Buxi."

Chen Shu: "???"

His face was filled with horror, "I really am not, you’ve got it all wrong!"

The girl pouted, "I’ve recognized you, why won’t you admit it?"

"We agreed before to meet at Emperor University, didn’t we? Now that we’ve met, you still won’t admit your identity. Is it because you don’t think I’m as pretty as you expected, so you don’t want to admit who you are and are looking for someone else to replace you and meet up with me?"

Listening to her words, Chen Shu truly felt like he was so smeared he could not wash himself clean, "No, Pig... Miss, listen to me, it’s not what you think!"

"Then what is it?" the girl asked sternly, "I won’t deny it, all my social media usernames are ’Pink Pig,’ but... only the account I added Chuanliu Buxi with has my own picture."

"And you even mentioned my online romance with Chuanliu Buxi."

As she spoke, she spread her arms in front of Chen Shu, her tone slightly imperious, "Do you dare to say you really are not Chuanliu Buxi?"

"I’m sorry Miss, I’m really not!" Chen Shu swore with his hands raised, "I just knew of your existence, although indeed I wanted to see what kind of person you were in advance, but I’m truly not your online romantic interest!"
