Chapter 87 "Tell me, what's our relationship?"

—

"It's so beautiful!"

In her eyes, the entire night sky had become a flowing ribbon of color, so stunning that it was impossible to look away.

She stared intently at the sky, her eyes sparkling.

Xie Lin's gaze shifted from the fireworks to her profile, and a few seconds later, he curled his lips into a smile.

"Yes, it's very beautiful."

Si Yue didn't notice. She sighed, shrugged, and said, "What a pity. If she had gone to Yi Yi's place, it would probably have been even worse."

Xie Lin raised an eyebrow casually and said nonchalantly, "What? Are you disappointed?"

Hearing his nonchalant tone, Si Yue's fist hardened.

She immediately punched him, saying in a sinister tone, "If you weren't so weak, would we be sitting on the sidelines?"

"hiss--"

Xie Lin clutched his chest, his entire being a mask of pain.

Doesn't this person know how strong he is?

Can't you have some self-awareness?

Will I get beaten to death later?

He said with a hint of resentment, "Could you be a little gentler?"

"Besides," he paused, then, to defend himself, "where did I lack confidence?"

"It's just that my body can't handle it, thank you."

Si Yue rolled her eyes.

Don't they all mean the same thing?

What about translating from Chinese to Chinese?

She snorted coldly, "As expected, men are all obsessed with saving face."

Xie Lin glanced at her, then looked at the fireworks still blooming in the sky, and pondered for a moment.

"You really like it?"

Si Yue waved her hand and casually replied, "Who doesn't like pretty things?"

Xie Lin nodded thoughtfully.

"Actually, this kind of thing is useless except for being pretty."

"The price is not proportional to its value."

Si Yue frowned.

Xie Lin caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye, and without changing his expression, changed his words: "However..."

"In certain contexts, it can still be very meaningful."

Si Yue: "?"

What on earth are they babbling about?

I couldn't understand it at all.

She patted his shoulder, her face full of concern: "Do you need to use the spinner?"

The topic changed so quickly that Xie Lin didn't react at first. He was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.

"Want to take a look around?"

"What's this?"

Si Yue kindly explained, "It's a secondhand market where people put things they don't need into the market to trade."

Xie Lin grew increasingly confused as he listened, and frowned, asking, "So you're asking me who I am?"

Si Yue smiled slightly, "It's nothing, I just wanted to ask if your brain was recycled after being placed up there."

Xie Lin: "...?"

"……No."

Si Yue twitched her lips.

He really made me cry my eyes out.

He actually gave a serious explanation.

"Really? I thought you were brainless."

"Otherwise, why would you keep saying things that are incomprehensible to people?"

Xie Lin: "..."

He sighed silently; dealing with girls was really difficult.

How could He Jinzhao be so flirtatious in front of his crush without batting an eye?

He was filled with awe.

Fireworks are fleeting, and the beauty they leave behind is only a moment of brilliance.

Xie Lin shook his head, stood up and said, "Let's go find them."

Si Yue looked doubtful: "Are you sure you can handle this?"

Unlike other boys who reacted immediately to this, Xie Lin raised his eyes and said lazily, "Not really."

"So I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you, Miss."

Si Yue glared at him, about to retort, but Xie Lin seemed to have guessed what she was going to say. He smiled slightly and said slowly, "To express my gratitude."

"I'll take care of your breakfast, lunch, and dinner for this semester."

Si Yue snorted coldly, "Who cares?"

It's not like she can't afford to eat.

Seeing that she remained unmoved, Xie Lin stroked his chin and pondered for a few seconds before saying thoughtfully, "I heard you mention before that you really like a female singer?"

"What was it called again?"

Si Yue blurted out, as if by reflex, "Summer!"

Xie Lin nodded: "Yes."

"And how about tickets to her next tour concert? Front row, small trumpet."

Si Yue was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed.

Summer is her idol. She heard one of her songs by chance in high school and was deeply attracted to it, thus joining the ranks of fans.

Merchandise, albums—everything is included.

Go to offline events and concerts whenever possible.

For this reason, she even transferred to the high school she had attended before.

After all, her goddess and her current lover had an enviable past in high school.

The forum still retains the posts from when the two confessed their feelings for each other.

Furthermore, he was recognized as an outstanding graduate.

As a long-time fan, how could she not be excited to hear Xie Lin say that?

This is the front row of the inner area, and most importantly, it's a small size.

Keep in mind that Summer is currently touring stadiums, but even so, tickets sell out instantly for every show, and scalpers charge exorbitant prices for good seats.

However, she quickly calmed down. Generally speaking, these front-row tickets are either obtained by lucky fans, or they are invitations or reserved for friends and family.

How could Xie Lin have that?

"How do you know Summer? You're not kidding me, are you?"

Si Yue looked surprised and hesitant.

Xie Lin scoffed, saying disdainfully, "Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

Si Yue stared at him silently without saying a word.

The two stared at each other, wide-eyed.

Xie Lin: "..."

A few seconds later, he was the first to surrender, saying listlessly, "I'm not familiar with Summer."

Just as Si Yue was about to retort, she heard him say, "But I know her husband."

Si Yue: "?"

"..."

"!!!"

She exclaimed in surprise, "Holy crap?! You know Roy?"

She grabbed Xie Lin's arm, her eyes gleaming with an astonishing light, and spoke rapidly, making it hard not to see how excited she was.

"No, who are you?"

Why are you hiding something this big?

"What's our relationship? Why didn't you tell me?!"

Xie Lin gestured, "Stop."

Si Yue blinked, obediently shut her mouth, and stared at him intently.

Xie Lin rarely saw her so well-behaved, so he clicked his tongue and said with a half-smile, "Tell me, what's our relationship?"

Si Yue's eyes were clear as she replied matter-of-factly, "Good buddy."

She patted her chest, exuding an air of righteousness.

"Don't worry, with me here, I'll go through fire and water for you, no matter what."

As the saying goes, brothers are in the heart.

"Just let me know if you need anything."

Xie Lin: "..."

He turned and left without any expression on his face.

He wanted to break off all ties with that idiot Si Yue for five minutes.

What nonsense are you talking about?

He's so angry!
