"Bangalore?" Luo Qianqian was taken aback, not immediately realizing which country it was in.
Gu Yunche chuckled softly, "In southern India, I'm going to meet someone at a Shiva temple on the outskirts of Bangalore."
"Oh, then... be careful," Luo Qianqian said.
"Hmm." Gu Yunche responded softly and hung up the phone.
Luo Qianqian silently pursed her lips while holding her phone, then immediately checked flight tickets to Bangalore and the location of the Shiva temple that Gu Yunche had mentioned.
She had just booked her flight and was checking local accommodations and transportation when Yuan Meng called again.
The first thing he asked when the call connected was, "Have you sent the photos? What was the old man's reaction?"
“He seems to have… really misunderstood,” Luo Qianqian said.
"Was it said over the phone or on WeChat? What about the chat history?" Yuan Meng asked.
Although she could recount the content of their conversation, some emotions needed to be analyzed from the tone of voice and manner of speaking.
Once they agreed on it, Luo Qianqian agreed that he would record their conversations so that she could help analyze any problems they couldn't solve.
“I’ll send you the recording of the call,” Luo Qianqian said.
Yuan Meng hung up the phone and listened to the recording of their conversation several times before calling back.
"It seems this old relic is getting a bit sour."
"Sour?" Luo Qianqian was a little taken aback and asked, "Really? I didn't hear it."
“That’s called being blinded by one’s own involvement. This is when my role as an advisor comes in handy.” Yuan Meng smiled proudly and analyzed for her, “However, it’s good that he’s jealous. It means that he still cares about you to some extent, even if he doesn’t realize it himself.”
"Really?" Luo Qianqian was skeptical.
“Old Dong said that the man in the photo isn’t right for you. He’s worried about you, and he’s just jealous.” Yuan Meng comforted him, then instructed, “When you meet him this time, you must use all your charm to pounce on him, or rather, make him pounce on you.”
"Sister Yuanmeng!" Luo Qianqian called out.
"This is a golden opportunity; it won't come again. It's time to take your relationship to the next level," Yuan Meng said.
She thought Gu Yunche would remain unmoved, but in the end he was moved after all.
Listen to the tone of his voice just now; I can't imagine how sour he felt.
"Sister Yuanmeng, can we not talk about this?" Luo Qianqian sighed.
"Okay, let's not talk about this. When are you going to see him?" Yuan Meng knew she was shy, so she changed the subject and asked something else.
Luo Qianqian pursed her lips and told the truth.
"I'll go in a couple of days."
"How about I go with you?" Yuan Meng suggested.
She herself isn't keen on pursuing old men, but if she did, she could create opportunities.
"No!" Luo Qianqian firmly refused.
"Fine, fine, I won't be a third wheel." Yuan Meng sighed regretfully and instructed, "Then you should try your best. Even if you don't pounce on him, you can at least kiss him a few times, right? You have to get something out of it, right?"
What are they trying to achieve by constantly chatting like this? Is it online dating or a platonic relationship?
"Sister Yuanmeng, thank you for your kindness, but can I go to the meeting myself?" Luo Qianqian said, both amused and exasperated.
"Alright, good luck." Yuan Meng didn't press the matter.
Although she really wanted to go, upon closer reflection, she realized that if she went with her and Gu Yunche found out, it would only make things worse.
