She didn’t know what to reply, her cheeks burning fiercely, so she numbly said, "Oh, oh, I see..."

Ji Ruofeng: "...?"

Song Shijia returned to the sofa, dizzy, feeling like her feet were floating while walking.

As soon as she sat down, Yun Qiqi handed her a glass of juice.

She took it unconsciously, her mind blank, her brain completely shutting down.

It took quite a while for her to snap back to reality.

Yun Qiqi was the first to ask her: "How did it turn out?"

Song Shijia could only hear her own heartbeat, she instinctively replied, "He said... he was talking to me."

Yun Qiqi instantly looked as if she understood everything.

She thought so!! Ji Ruofeng definitely likes Shijia!!

"What do you think?"

Song Shijia took several deep breaths, shook her head, and said, "I don’t know."

When she heard he was talking to her, she felt relieved...

It means... Ji Shen probably doesn’t have anyone he likes yet, right??

Still, his words sounded so ambiguous, making one unable to help but overthink.

Especially with that look,

Thinking of that moment, Song Shijia’s heart couldn’t help but start beating fast, her mind a mess.

Perhaps influenced by those speculative comments, she couldn’t help but have a bit of a fantasy...

Yun Qiqi was quite composed, immediately concluding: "Since he was talking to you, the person he likes must be you."

Song Shijia’s heart skipped a beat.

Who knew the next second she saw Ji Ruofeng looking their way, feeling guilty, she instinctively covered Yun Qiqi’s mouth, and lowered her voice: "Luo Luo don’t speak nonsense, that’s just random speculation online!"

"Ji Shen is not that kind of person, how could he possibly like me..." She paused, as if to convince herself, firmly saying, "He just treats me as a friend!"

Yun Qiqi: "Then what about what he said..."

Song Shijia was silent for a moment, slightly relaxed her grip, tentatively said, "Maybe it’s just... thanking a friend?"

Yun Qiqi scrunched her little nose, wanting to say something more.

She interrupted her: "Enough about this, we’re not possible... he’s so great, how could he like me?"

After saying this, Song Shijia let go of her, turned her head, and started pretending calmly to eat something, completely unwilling to discuss the topic further.

Only her slightly trembling hand revealed her unsettled heart.

Yun Qiqi really couldn’t understand, with something so obvious, why Shijia just wouldn’t believe it??

To be honest, she wasn’t sure before.

But after seeing the comment Ji Ruofeng made during today’s competition, she was completely convinced, yet Shijia still refused to believe it.

The two sat in the corner for quite a while, then Ji Ruofeng and a few of his teammates came over and sat at their booth.

They were all a group of energetic young people, having just won the championship, each still excited, loudly insisting on starting some drinking games as soon as they gathered.

After they gathered around, one of the teammates asked Song Shijia, "Sis-in-law, are you and your friend joining?"

Earlier during the meal, Yun Qiqi and Ji Ruofeng hadn’t interacted or had any contact.

Everyone was unaware that Yun Qiqi knew him, but saw Ji Ruofeng constantly taking care of this orange-haired young lady.

Ji Ruofeng is their captain, his teammates knew long ago he liked someone, they’d seen Song Shijia a few times before, and the meal earlier further confirmed her connection to him.
