Chapter 236: Chapter 235: Into the Jaws of the Tiger Chapter 236: Chapter 235: Into the Jaws of the Tiger She clearly remembered how angry the deity had been the last time she had spoken like this.

Moreover, given her current relationship with Gu Huai, saying that again would be too much…

So, Qi Yue quickly explained, “How could that be! I said we’re close! Very close! It’s just that they don’t believe me!”

Hearing Qi Yue say this, Gu Huai’s expression finally eased.

The sun overhead was too hot. Gu Huai had just been driving a tractor in the unsheltered field, and now his head was covered in sweat. The sweat droplets traced down his forehead, over his brow, and finally dripped into his eyes…

Gu Huai instinctively closed his eyes and asked Qi Yue, “Do you have a tissue?”

Qi Yue hurriedly pulled out a tissue from her pocket, “Yes, yes, I do…”

Qi Yue had intended to hand the tissue to Gu Huai, but he didn’t move and naturally tilted his body slightly toward her.

Qi Yue paused for a second, then reflexively raised her hand and wiped his sweat for him.

By the time Qi Yue realized what she had done, she had already finished wiping…

How had she wiped it so smoothly!

But, she really hadn’t misunderstood. Gu Huai had clearly leaned in wanting her to help him wipe it!

As his girlfriend, she couldn’t possibly refuse such a small favor…

Gu Huai watched the “swift changes” of emotions in Qi Yue’s eyes and his lips subtly curved up, “Thank you.”

Qi Yue: “Uh… no… you’re welcome…”

Then, Qi Yue glanced at the live stream.

Alright then.

The live stream exploded.

[Ahhh! What’s happening! Fairy Brother is too naive!]
[Exactly! Boss! You can’t be this innocent!]
[Can someone tell me! With such a high IQ, could he be a silly sweet boy? Boys also need to be careful out there!]
[Boss, you better be smart! Don’t throw yourself into the lion’s den!]
“Lion’s den” Qi Yue’s face was darker than the mud beneath her feet: “Hey! Enough is enough! I can see the comments!”

[So what if you see them! Dare you say you’re not interested in the boss? I’m embarrassed to expose you as the host!]
[Exactly! I’m betting a Potato! The way you look at Boss is definitely not innocent!]
Qi Yue looked at those comments, her lips twitching faintly.

Her gaze towards Gu Huai was of course not innocent!

If it were innocent, that would be weird, right?

Gu Huai also moved closer and started reading the comments with her. Seeing his intrigued expression, he seemed not to be upset but rather in a good mood…

So Qi Yue hesitated, wondering if she should end the live stream soon.

She was afraid Gu Huai would not like being so high-profile…

Qi Yue looked at Gu Huai, seeking his opinion, and Gu Huai glanced at her before addressing the fans in the live stream, “Let me explain, you’ve misunderstood.”

Hearing Gu Huai say this, Qi Yue was not angry. Given Gu Huai’s personality, it was actually expected.

The fans in the live stream started complaining again.

[Where is the misunderstanding! Boss, your actions just now were totally like a lamb entering a lion’s den, you know?]
[Exactly, how could you let her wipe your sweat! It should have been me!]
…
Qi Yue: “… ” Haha!

While Qi Yue was increasingly speechless, Gu Huai chuckled lightly, scanning those comments and then continued, “I really hadn’t walked into the lion’s den… I was already in it.”

I was already in the lion’s den…

In the lion’s den…

As soon as Gu Huai’s words fell, the fans in the live stream: […]
Qi Yue herself: “…”
