Lover?

No, it's still in a state of ambiguity.

"no"

She answered decisively.

This answer immediately made those around him much happier.

Suddenly, everyone's gaze towards Su Yan changed from scrutiny to warmth.

Ah, as long as my crush is still single, everything is fine.

Almost every fan has probably experienced this to some extent.

Logically speaking, every idol will fall in love and get married, and we really want them to be happy.

However, once an idol announces their relationship, it's beyond rational control, and feelings of jealousy just keep welling up inside.

It's like a pig has eaten up your own cabbage.

My thoughts are complicated, and I'm feeling very upset.

Naturally, this group of people had similar feelings.

They still seemed to want to keep asking questions.

Su Yan spoke

You're blocking the way.

As soon as he finished speaking, someone finally moved his leg and made way for him.

Su Yan took her textbook and walked out.

Several more persistent pursuers followed behind.

He wanted to curry favor and become intimate with Su Yan.

He immediately tried to take Su Yan's arm.

"Su Yan, where are you planning to eat? Shall we go together?"

She bit into the strawberry milk candy in her mouth, leaned back, and dodged their outstretched hands.

Following the Way

"I like someone."

Those who caught up were a little embarrassed.

"Oh, I see. Then, could you get us a few autographed copies of Z's work?"

Su Yan thought for a moment, then shook her head.

"cannot"

Her unyielding attitude, her complete unwillingness to have anything to do with them, finally drew their dissatisfaction.

The group snorted softly, turned around, and left without saying another word.

After getting rid of these people, Su Yan headed towards home.

What she didn't know was that after dark...

He has climbed back to the top of the trending topics list.

The trending topic was a clarification: Fireworks and Z are just friends.

Then came a Weibo post from a relatively well-known blogger.

[According to reports, the female game streamer Yanhuo personally admitted to her friends that she and Z are not in a romantic relationship, but just ordinary friends. She asked all netizens not to speculate further and cause unnecessary misunderstandings.]

Immediately following was a noisy recording.

It was during the time Su Yan was talking to those people in class.

Su Yan was naturally unaware of these things.

She has never been particularly sensitive to electronic products or internet-related things.

I don't pay much attention to it.

However, it was a night with few stars.

Someone in a villa sat pitifully in front of the computer, staring at the trending topic for a long time.

Ji Yan carefully read the title: 'Personally Admits to a Friend' 'They're Just Friends'

His eyes were downcast, his face pale, and he looked sickly, enveloped in an atmosphere of oppression and sadness in the darkness of the night.

He listened to that recording more than a dozen times.

So I'm certain that it was her voice.

Does she only see me as a friend?

So these days, she has only felt pity for him.

I just felt sorry for him.

Ji Yan's entire body almost froze in place.

His little schemes were so ridiculous that even he himself found them somewhat laughable.

Yes, it seems there's nothing about me that could attract her.

Aside from pity, he couldn't find any other reason for her to stay.

The memory flashed through her mind of the phone call Su Yan answered this morning from Xiang Chong.

They used to be lovers.

Then, Ji Yan clicked the mouse a few times.

A short while later, the computer screen displayed the surveillance video of Su Yan on the balcony that morning.
