The Heartthrob Became My Boyfriend-Chapter 89 - 0: Meeting Someone You Like

Chapter 89: Chapter 089: Meeting Someone You Like

Qi Yue’s heart skipped half a beat in shock as she stared at Gu Huai in disbelief!

God! Don’t just blurt things out, hey!!!

Am I not just twenty-some days older than you!

Not even a full month!

Round it up, and we’re practically the same age, okay!

This… is really unnecessary!

...

By the time Qi Yue had finally stopped coughing, Gu Huai let out a light laugh, retracted his hand, and leaned back in his chair, his expression utterly calm, as if he hadn’t been the one who just called her “sister.”

The more familiar they became and the longer they knew each other, the more she realized that Gu Huai wasn’t exactly the otherworldly figure he appeared to be on the surface; instead, at times he was quite…quite scheming…

Qi Yue was thinking about whether or not to explain when Madam Shen spoke up, “By the way, Qi Yue, where is your hometown?”

Qi Yue thought for a moment, “Although I have lived in City B since high school, I was only there for three years. As for my hometown, it’s actually Yin City. I’ve grown up in its villages since I was little…”

Madam Shen: “Yin City! That’s a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters!”

Qi Yue smiled faintly, “Yes! The scenery is especially beautiful! And the water quality is excellent too! It’s just that the development is a bit too slow… Before I went to university, I promised our village chief that I would come back to my hometown after graduating!”

Professor Shen sighed, “Young people all run off to the cities, naturally slowing down the countryside’s development. Rural revitalization can’t rely on the villages alone; it also needs technological support from the cities.”

Qi Yue said, “That’s right, so actually, figuring out how to get young people willing to come back to develop the villages and to stay is the most important thing. Otherwise, many villages will just become ‘hollow villages.’ Also, many poor areas used to rely on donations, which doesn’t solve the fundamental issues. It’s better to buy instead of donating. Livestreaming has become more and more popular recently, and I’ve tried for a while to use livestreaming to sell agricultural products, which turned out to be quite feasible…”

Professor Shen agreed, “Indeed, embracing new things and trying new methods is a very effective approach!”

…

Seeing that Qi Yue and Professor Shen were enthusiastically talking about “rural revitalization,” Madam Shen couldn’t help but interject with a slight cough, “Qi Yue, do you plan to return to your hometown after graduation?”

Qi Yue quickly looked at Madam Shen and nodded, “Yes.”

“Going back to your hometown to help its development is indeed a good thing. Young people like you who are willing to return are becoming rarer and rarer…”

As Madam Shen spoke, a look of concern crossed her face, tentatively adding, “But what after the hometown develops? Have you considered coming back to City A? With your abilities, if you go into research, you could do so much more!”

After Madam Shen finished speaking, she looked towards Professor Shen, “I’m right, aren’t I, Old Shen?”

Professor Shen also nodded in agreement in response to Madam Shen’s words, clearly recognizing Qi Yue’s capabilities, “I’ve read Qi Yue’s thesis. She’s very capable and has a lot of great ideas…”

Qi Yue scratched her head, embarrassed, “Thank you for the praise, Professor Shen, Madam Shen. But actually, I haven’t really thought that far ahead…”

Madam Shen pondered, “What if… after you go back to your hometown, and you meet someone you like there? Would you consider settling down in your hometown?”

“That…” Qi Yue had truly not considered this question, hesitated for a bit, then said, “Destiny is something no one can predict; such things are really uncertain…”
