The Heartthrob Became My Boyfriend-Chapter 216 - 215 Wishful Thinking
Chapter 216: Chapter 215: Wishful Thinking Chapter 216 -215: Wishful Thinking Lady Chen’s words, although not explicitly harsh, implied that Qi Yue’s behavior was a slap in their faces, akin to criticizing their parenting skills.
Yu Shuhua looked at her husband and complained, “Look at how your brother has raised Yueyue. With the girl brought up like this, which reputable family would want her in the future…”
Qi Wanli, although wanting to defend his brother, couldn’t refute, “Okay, enough said, we had no choice but to leave Yueyue in the countryside back then, we share that responsibility…”
Hearing his parents and the Qi family’s conversation, Chen Jing’s face turned from green to white, “Dad, Mom, Uncle Qi, Auntie Qi…”
Chen Jing continued, turning to Qi Zhen at last, “And Zhenzhen… I think you all have misunderstood Qi Yue! She truly had no such feelings towards me! To speculate and misunderstand her thoughts just because she chatted with me for a bit…makes me seem too presumptuous!”
Lady Chen seemed upset upon hearing this, “What do you mean by ‘presumptuous’? Then how do you explain her suddenly deciding to join the shooting competition the moment she heard you would be there? Little Jing, there have been so many girls who have cared about you since you were a child, Mom knows very well what those girls are thinking…”
Chen Jing, unable to bear it any longer, interrupted his mother, “Mom! Stop it! Do you know who Qi Yue’s boyfriend is?”
Lady Chen clearly wasn’t interested in this question, “What does it matter who her boyfriend is?”
Chen Jing sighed, “Qi Yue’s boyfriend… is Gu Huai!”
Upon hearing this name, everyone present was stunned, especially Qi Zhen, whose expression changed instantly.
Qi Zhen: “What did you say…?”
Lady Chen muttered in surprise, “Gu…Gu Huai… which Gu Huai are you talking about… it can’t be…”
Chen Jing pinched the bridge of his nose, “Yes, that Gu Huai. The genius scientist I’ve mentioned many times before, who was personally invited several times by the head of our research institute…”
With that statement from Chen Jing, there was almost nothing more that needed to be said.
If Qi Yue had a boyfriend like that, there was no way she would still be harboring feelings or intentionally trying to get close to Chen Jing…

No wonder Chen Jing had mentioned being ‘presumptuous’.
Not wanting to face further embarrassment, Chen Jing hurriedly clarified everything in one go, “So do you understand now? The reason Qi Yue talked more with me that day was because the person I mentioned during the conversation, Gu Huai, is her boyfriend. If Qi Yue decided to join the shooting competition, it’s likely because she wanted to be with Gu Huai.
Even if she joined the competition to outshine Zhenzhen due to past conflicts, it definitely has nothing to do with me! This whole situation is truly a misunderstanding! Please don’t ever bring it up again, or I wouldn’t know how to face God Xiu!”
Lady Chen still seemed unconvinced, “Little Jing, are you… are you sure? How do you know Qi Yue’s boyfriend is Gu Huai?”
By implication, she still suspected that Qi Yue might be making it up.
Chen Jing, with a helpless expression, “When I went to find Qi Yue, Gu Huai was there too, he personally said it, how could it be false?”
Today, at the pigpen, it had been incredibly awkward…
He was nearly mortified to death, and he really didn’t want to keep recalling that scene over and over again.
