Chapter 57: Chapter 57 Qili, be my girlfriend

Gu Qili originally arranged to meet with Chen Yishu here to discuss matters, intending to explain everything to him before he confessed his feelings. Unexpectedly, he was already prepared and took her by surprise.

She hadn’t even had time to think about what to do when another bashful junior girl ran over and stuffed an identical card into her hands, saying: "Wishing you and Senior Chen to grow old together."

More and more cards kept coming one after another, and Gu Qili was overwhelmed. In the blink of an eye, almost all the students who had borrowed books from the foreign literature section had sent a card.

Those who were more direct would give blessings, while the shy ones would place the card down and leave. There were so many books in the foreign literature section, densely packed into several large rows, it seemed like he had tucked a card into every single one.

Gu Qili walked to the bookshelf, picked a book at random, and upon opening it, indeed found a sticky note inside.

Each card was handwritten, very serious and formal, it was hard to imagine how long he had prepared for this.

There were no expensive items, nor was it wastefully extravagant, every stroke and line was his sincere sentiment.

If it were anyone else, they might have been moved to tears by now, but Gu Qili couldn’t bring herself to feel happy. She somewhat blamed herself, wondering if she should have clarified things earlier. However, Chen Yishu had never shown any warm or inappropriate thoughts towards her, so if she had brought it up first, it might have seemed petty and could potentially ruin their future interactions.

This time, she thought she finally had the chance to clarify everything with him, but it was still a step too late.

Alas, those with deep emotions always face the toughest dilemmas.

Just then, the surroundings suddenly quieted down, and a familiar scent stealthily approached.

A clean and slender hand reached from behind, gently pulling the book from her hands, a pleasant voice with a deep masculine tone said, "Qili, be my girlfriend."

The words on the cards suddenly turned into reality, and Gu Qili was somewhat unaccustomed to it.

She didn’t turn around immediately, her hands tightly clenched at her sides, her cheeks slightly blushing, making Chen Yishu see a shy demeanor in her.

With her back to him, he felt more composed. Before coming here, he had chugged two bottles of Red Bull to fill himself with vigor.

Having known her for so long and interacting under the pretense of being just good friends, he could only hide and suppress his deep affection knowing she prioritized her studies.

However, they were about to graduate soon, and he couldn’t miss this chance, letting her go somewhere he couldn’t find her and lose contact forever.

If she liked Aus City, he would support her; if she cherished freedom, he would accompany her to the ends of the earth.

As long as she was there, he would be undeterred.

Chen Yishu straightened his back, his sunny face showing a young man’s bashfulness. Not far away, his dorm room buddies were waving fists of victory at him.

"Qili, please say yes." He moved in front of her, holding a bunch of fiery red roses, scratching his head shyly as she looked at him: "Those guys insisted on roses, do you also think it’s quite cheesy?"

The area was filled with onlookers, some even taking photos with their phones, many were cheering for Chen Yishu, and some just watched silently, among them were those who had quietly longed for and pursued Chen Yishu.

In their eyes, a social butterfly like Gu Qili was never good enough for Chen Yishu, and they felt she didn’t deserve him.

Seeing that Gu Qili had no reaction, Chen Yishu scratched his short hair again and looked into her eyes, saying softly, "I don’t need to kneel, do I?"
