Chapter 928: Chapter 384: What She Wants Most, I Can’t Give_3

The netizens grew more curious: "What kind of person could make Warm Sister’s heart flutter?"

Before long, an alumnus from Premier Normal University stepped forward with some gossip: "Chen Nuanhan is a famous goddess of our school. She has always had someone she liked—one of our school’s very well-known male gods."

He didn’t mention Su Huai’s name; because if he did, it would undoubtedly be censored.

But the omnipotent netizens still managed to uncover the truth—Warm Sister’s secret crush was the Tianyi Male God who briefly rose to online fame five years ago.

And as they dug deeper and deeper, they also unearthed connections to Xingyu. Soon, Pei Shuyu, Yan Mengqing, Chu Changkuo, Quanquan, and Yang Chaoyue were also dragged into the fray.

Gradually, related topics began appearing in Su Huai’s social circle too.

In the schoolmates’ group chat: Wow, Chen Nuanhan has also become a famous influencer now. Our graduating class truly was full of exceptional talents!

In the alumni chat: Wahhh, my Sour Plum Soup Goddess, from the small canteen window at school to the most fearless female guest on Heartbeat 7—she’s still the same person!

Inside Xingyu: There are a few good prospects on this season of Heartbeat. Should we think about signing them?

Mom: Oh dear! Nuannuan’s gone on a show to look for a partner? Pipi, you didn’t wrong her or Yueyue, did you?!

Gu also started following the show and would open his tablet to watch whenever he had free time.

In this kind of environment, there was no way Su Huai could remain oblivious, nor could he pretend to not know.

That day, Gu nestled in Su Huai’s arms, opened the latest episode, and halfway through, Le Yan asked Chen Nuanhan, "Warm Sister, confession night is coming up soon, and I’m really curious about one thing: what kind of confession would you accept?"

"A confession is just a formality. If two people can truly be together, it doesn’t need a confession."

Chen Nuanhan smiled, replying leisurely, "So if that person is wrong, I won’t accept any form of confession. But if that person is right, then as long as he gives me a signal, I’ll throw myself into his arms."

Gu Jiuyue suddenly turned her head and gave Su Huai a glance.

Gou Huai panicked internally but outwardly kept his composure like an old pro: "Wife, why are you looking at me?"

That one word—"Wife"—instantly made Gu Jiuyue beam with joy. She sweetly replied, "Stop playing dumb, Nuannuan’s waiting for your signal!"

This wife is truly sharp...

Gou Huai started sweating bullets but decisively denied, "I’m not a traffic light, where am I supposed to get all these signals?"

Gu Jiuyue gave him a quick kiss as a reward, then sighed, "Actually, Nuannuan is quite pitiful too. She’s been coaxing me for so many years—all for you..."

Gou Huai stared at the screen in a daze and suddenly blurted out, "She’s really matured now, hasn’t she? Been so long since we last talked, and she’s changed a lot."

"Pfft!"

Gu Jiuyue burst out laughing and decided not to press him further.

On screen, Le Yan asked in shock, "Warm Sister, you’re so brave. How come you didn’t win over your old crush?"

"I was immature back then, I guess."

Chen Nuanhan responded lightly, "Be it men or women, the arrogance we have in our youth is something we all eventually have to pay for. I’m no exception. There’s nothing strange about it. You mustn’t follow my example."

"Warm Sister, you’re really magnanimous."

Le Yan praised her sincerely, and the audience watching at home was equally impressed.

Such a beautiful goddess openly admitting it was her own fault—it strongly evoked the White Moonlight longing in men and stirred sympathy in the women rooting for her.

Gu Jiuyue, upon seeing this, suddenly remarked, "She told me she wants to sign with Xingyu and, when she has time, start working on her personal account."

Su Huai froze: "When did she say this?"

"Just before she joined the show."

"She’s not quitting her job?"

"No, she’ll continue with her main career in investment while managing the account part-time. She’s already found an assistant. Want to guess who it is?"

Su Huai quickly ran through the names of the e-commerce course students in his mind and thought of one person: "Shu Shengnan?"

"So smart~~~" Gu Jiuyue gave him another kiss and then tilted her head, asking, "So, are you going to sign her?"

"Of course. Why wouldn’t I? It’s a win-win—why stop it? By the time she’s off the show, her traffic will be big enough for an S-tier contract."

"Mm." Gu nodded, her voice gradually fading, "The thing she wants most, I can’t give her. If she has to settle for second-best, I hope she gets to shine."

Su Huai tightly embraced Gu, nuzzling her hair and cheek. He didn’t try to comfort her or say much.
