I, The Female Protagonist With Superpower, Am Super Fierce - Chapter 160

Chapter 160: Date

Shen Jiayi was a bit restless. After declaring her resolve to improve, she ran off like the wind.

Perhaps she finally found her direction this time.

Not even a full minute had passed since she promised to protect her friend. Without hesitation, she immediately decided to arm herself and receive some supplementary lessons.

Having a particular goal could really make people motivated.

Shen Jiayi discovered something new. An indescribable feeling of excitement bubbled up inside her.

Gu Yan felt satisfied and shook her head.

At this moment, a person walked up to her and laughed at her antics. “Gu Yan, you are really plotting hard to make Shen Jiayi stronger.”

Gu Yan teased back, “Ah, but you have graduated from the Primary Academy. Don’t you know ‘plotting’ is a derogatory word? Moreover, you already heard us talking. Why didn’t you say anything earlier? Surely, you already know Jiayi is looking for you, right?”

“It’s fine. We’re staying in the same room. She’ll find me eventually.” Guo Rou shrugged her shoulders and sighed. “Gu Yan, I really respect you.”

“Mhm, don’t admire me too much.”

“… You’re so polite with Shen Jiayi. Why are you bantering with me so much?” Guo Rou complained, “We’re the same age though.”

“Perhaps… because you’re stronger than Jiayi.” Gu Yan shrugged her shoulders as well. “What are your plans for tomorrow?”

“I’m going home,” Guo Rou replied. She observed Gu Yan’s expression and didn’t notice any change. Hence, she continued, “I’m going to check on Lin Xiaoyu.”

“Oh.” Gu Yan didn’t appear to be upset. In fact, she seemed calm

Guo Rou quickly finished her words. “She needs to give me an explanation for what happened.”

This time, Gu Yan raised her brow in surprise. “Explanation?”

“Mhm, for closure. And… Gu Yan, can we be friends?” Guo Rou looked sincerely at Gu Yan. There was a trace of nervousness and hope in her eyes.

Guo Rou didn’t notice it herself.

Right then, Guo Rou thought Gu Yan would be irked by her relationship with Lin Xiaoyu. She might even reject her offer. Contrary to her expectations, however, Gu Yan said, “Aren’t we friends already?”

Guo Rou suddenly raised her head.

Gu Yan was beaming. “Alright, let’s hurry back. Jiayi is still looking for you. I still have two questions unfinished.”

“Sure!”

Everyone seemed to feel relieved ever since the competition ended. The fatigue from these past twenty days was immediately washed away due to the incoming two-day holiday.

The next morning, Gu Yan had just finished washing when she saw Shen Jiayi and Guo Rou together. Both of them decided to return home, so they were headed the same way.

Guo Rou said, “Gu Yan, you’re not going to spend these two days studying at the dorms, right? How boring would that be? How about coming home with me? Our maid can prepare really scrumptious dishes.”

Shen Jiayi wanted to invite Gu Yan as well, but her status in the Shen family was a bit peculiar. She couldn’t casually invite friends home like Guo Rou.

In addition, she still had to inform her mother regarding her membership in the Arts Department next year.

Naturally, Shen Nana was irritated by her accomplishment, so she wouldn’t dare to share the news with the family.

Gu Yan was well aware of this fact. She smiled. “You can bring back some food for me. I’m busy today. I won’t be staying in the dormitory.”

“Where are you going?” Guo Rou asked curiously.

Gu Yan’s face blossomed with a sweet smile. “I’m going on a date with Captain Lu.”

Guo Rou: …

‘She shouldn’t have asked!’

Guo Rou complained, “No wonder! Not even good food can lure you! Let’s go, Jiayi. She doesn’t need our concern at all.”

Finally, those two had left her alone. Gu Yan was ready to go.

It was a bit cold today. She wore the cotton jackets that the military handed out. She knew going on a date like this wasn’t too formal, but she didn’t have the opportunity to buy a thick jacket yet.

When Gu Yan reached the door, she saw a man who was wearing a black jacket and black military shoes walking towards her.

‘Why is Captain Lu… dressed so formally?!’
