Su Wan’er, who was waiting for Lai Weiyi to come back, was shocked to see Gu Bai suddenly sit down next to her and say all that.
Her entire body froze.
She had no idea what to say.
She was panicked, and also felt like crying.
‘What perfect disguise!’
‘Hadn’t Gu Bai seen through it with just one look?’
‘The good news was that Gu Bai didn’t know she wasn’t Su Shuhao.’
‘The bad news was that she didn’t dare to explain that she was Su Wan’er.’
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
Gu Bai looked at Su Wan’er as if trying to find something written on her face.
Su Wan’er forced herself to stay calm.
She turned her gaze to Gu Bai, lowered her voice as much as possible, and said in a flat tone.
“What are you thinking?”
After saying that, Su Wan’er silently prayed for Lai Weiyi to come back quickly.
‘She knew she couldn’t handle this situation at all, so she might as well just go along with Gu Bai’s words.’
Gu Bai felt that the Su Shuhao in front of him was a bit off, but her appearance and voice were indeed no different from Su Shuhao’s.
“You’re testing me again, aren’t you?”
Gu Bai said coldly.
“Just like before.”
“S-so what?”
Su Wan’er kept sweating from her forehead.
For the moment, she could only tough it out and not let Gu Bai see through her.
Just as Lai Weiyi had said, if Gu Bai found out she was Su Shuhao’s younger sister, there would definitely be no future.
So she couldn’t let him know.
At least not now.
“All I can say is, it’s childish.”
Gu Bai said with a straight face.
Su Wan’er carefully recalled what her sister might say.
“Heh… men can’t resist temptation. You’re no exception, Gu Bai.”
‘Yes!’
She thought.
‘That’s right. With that tone, Gu Bai would surely have an even worse impression of her sister.’
“I think you’re flattering yourself.”
To Gu Bai, the two of them were just ordinary friends now.
How could Su Shuhao meddle in his affairs?
Or rather, she had no right to meddle at all.
At this point, Gu Bai also guessed why he had to come to this mixer.
It must be because Su Shuhao wanted to annoy him.
In the noisy private room, the sound of their conversation was almost completely drowned out by the singing.
So to hear what Gu Bai was saying, Su Wan’er had to get close enough.
With the raucous music, the distance between Su Wan’er and Gu Bai was now less than 30 centimeters. They were almost touching.
After they looked at each other for a while, Gu Bai saw that the Su Shuhao in front of him couldn’t help but look away.
She seemed a bit timid, or maybe a bit guilty.
But regardless, the distance between them was indeed very close.
Gu Bai took a sip of Sprite and said.
“Su Wan’er is in this dorm too, right? Didn’t she come?”
“No.”
When asked about herself, Su Wan’er made a snap decision and nodded without hesitation.
Gu Bai didn’t bother to ask further.
From his understanding of Su Wan’er over the past few days, it would be a miracle if she came to a place like this.
After all, she was an otaku.
Karaoke and mixers like this were definitely not Su Wan’er’s thing.
If nothing unexpected happened, she should be lying in the dorm right now.
Thinking this, Gu Bai stood up and was about to leave.
Since Su Wan’er wasn’t here, he didn’t need to worry about that timid little hamster.
“Wait.”
Su Wan’er called out to Gu Bai.
After thinking it over carefully, she realized something.
Compared to her original identity, using her sister’s identity seemed to bring her closer to Gu Bai.
Even though Gu Bai might not give her a good expression, she could feel at ease getting closer to him.
So after realizing this, Su Wan’er said to Gu Bai.
“Leaving as soon as you see me? Are you feeling guilty? Or did you really come here to find a new girlfriend?”
Su Wan’er looked at the crowd wildly partying in the center of the room and said.
“Indeed, these girls are more open and have better figures. It’s normal to have some thoughts.”
As she said this, a hint of jealousy crept into Su Wan’er’s tone.
Gu Bai noticed that sour feeling.
He turned back to look at the girl in front of him.
Even though the lighting was dim, Gu Bai couldn’t help but admire.
Su Shuhao’s face was indeed beautiful.
She was like a princess stepping out of a fairy tale, aloof and only meant to be admired.
Gu Bai never hesitated to give compliments, so he said bluntly.
“No, none of them are as pretty as you.”
Such a straightforward remark turned Su Wan’er’s face bright red, but it also made her a bit irritated.
For some reason, even though no one else noticed anything, Gu Bai could tell at a glance that she looked a lot like Su Shuhao.
And the more she dressed up, the more she resembled her sister.
It was ridiculous.
‘Her eyes went lifeless.’
She sighed.
‘Would she have to wear that pair of black-rimmed glasses forever when she was with Gu Bai?’
While Su Wan’er was thinking, Gu Bai sat back down beside her and asked.
“How’s your preparation for the graduate school exam going?”
Before they broke up, Gu Bai had been helping Su Shuhao prepare for the graduate exam.
But after the breakup, he put that aside.
They were just ordinary friends now.
Of course, Gu Bai wouldn’t willingly help Su Shuhao prepare like before.
But since he had nothing better to do, Gu Bai decided to ask.
“Don’t come crying to me if you fail.”
“I won’t!”
Su Wan’er retorted instinctively, and Gu Bai continued.
“So? You’re not in the library studying. What are you doing here?”
“I… I just wanted to see you…”
Su Wan’er’s murmur was only meant for herself.
In her opinion, in this noisy karaoke room, there was no way Gu Bai could hear her muttering.
But contrary to her expectations, because they were so close, Gu Bai did hear what Su Wan’er said.
So Gu Bai was momentarily stunned.
He even wondered if he had misheard, so he asked.
“What did you just say?”
“Nothing!”
Su Wan’er blushed and shook her head repeatedly.
“I didn’t say anything!”
Gu Bai looked at her with a mix of suspicion and doubt.
Su Wan’er was also secretly observing Gu Bai.
In Gu Bai’s eyes right now, she was her sister.
‘Since he had mistaken her… then it wouldn’t hurt to get a little closer, right?’
So, while Gu Bai was playing with his phone, Su Wan’er directly sat down beside him.
The two were almost leaning against each other.
Seeing this, Gu Bai was even more confused.
