Chapter 239: Chapter 238: Faster Than a Rocket Chapter 239: Chapter 238: Faster Than a Rocket A few days later, Qii Shuhang returned from the academic seminar.

The morning breeze at University A was gentle, and birds sang amid fragrant flowers. Qii Shuhang stopped at the entrance of the school, looking slightly nervous as he adjusted his collar.

He had made up his mind that, upon his return, he would immediately go and confess to Qi Yue without any delay.

This time, he definitely could not let himself be interrupted and leave things unfinished!

Taking a deep breath, he rehearsed his speech for the Nth time in his mind and then stepped into the school.

As he entered the school gate, the large screen at the entrance turned on on schedule, starting to play a new promotional video for University A.

It began with aerial shots, drone footage of the campus that spread over seven thousand acres, featuring beautiful environments, advanced laboratory equipment, extensive experimental fields…

And there, in the fields digging potatoes was Qi Yue, and on the tractor, plowing the land, was Gu Huai…

The camera then precisely switched to a close-up of the two exchanging looks…

Qii Shuhang was stunned. When had the school produced a new promotional video, and how had it involved Qi Yue and Gu Huai…

What’s more, why did the atmosphere in that scene seem somewhat romantically charged…
“Bro! You’re finally back! I’ve been dying here!”

Just then, the agonized voice of He Ming echoed in his ears.

Qii Shuhang had a bad hunch and immediately questioned upon seeing He Ming, “He Ming! Perfect timing, what’s the deal with Qi Yue and God Xiu?”

He Ming was also stunned by Qii Shuhang’s question, “You already know about Qi Yue and Gu Huai being together?”

Qii Shuhang’s pupils shook, “What? Qi Yue and Gu Huai are together???”

He Ming: “Uh… you didn’t know? Then why are you asking me… Did someone tell you something?”

Qii Shuhang raised his head and pointed at the big screen, “Tell me what? I saw it myself!”

He Ming looked up following Qii Shuhang, and after admiring the beautiful scene on the screen for a moment, he awkwardly started, “Ahem, well, bro, it’s just like what you saw… Qi Yue and Gu Huai are already together…”
Qii Shuhang stood frozen, taking several seconds to grasp the meaning of He Ming’s words, “How is that possible? They clearly had no signs of this! During the city sports meeting, I had been ready to confess while presenting the champion trophy, but got interrupted by a teacher, and I was planning to make a well-prepared confession again upon my return…”
He Ming sighed, “Who can tell!”

Qii Shuhang was anxious, “So what exactly happened?”

He Ming spoke reluctantly, “What could have happened? In the few days you were gone, the boss and Qi Yue made their relationship official and quickly announced it…”
Qii Shuhang looked dazedly at the big screen, his heart crumbling as he saw the boss on the tractor.

Qii Shuhang: “Are you serious? Even a rocket isn’t that fast…”
He Ming patted Qii Shuhang’s shoulder, “Hey, I wanted to tell you, but your seminar was completely closed off, you had turned off your phone, I couldn’t reach you at all, I could only wait until you came back…”
He Ming hesitated, then spoke, “Actually, I even made some moves for you, but it turned out to be helpless…”
Qii Shuhang: “Made some moves? What moves?”

He Ming scratched his head, “Ah, a lot happened after you left, do you know who ended up participating in that 10-meter air pistol mixed team event?”
