Chapter 926: Chapter 930: No One Survived (Part 2)
In a past life, Su Li, who had lived his entire life as a man, felt extremely uncomfortable when Qiu Yu came over to intimately hold his arm.
However, after a while, Su Li adjusted to it.
A beautiful girl is always more pleasing to the eye than a bunch of unruly boys.
Li Yiyang is truly a good boyfriend. For his girlfriend’s little whims, when going downstairs, he followed behind Su Li and Qiu Yu, a full ten meters away, looking rather pitiful.
This made Su Li seem a bit distant and unsympathetic.
Qiu Yu hesitated and looked back several times, wanting to speak to Su Li but holding back each time.
On her fourth glance back, she couldn’t hold it in any longer, "Ah Lee, are you really taking this seriously?"
Li Yiyang is the young master of a large conglomerate. Aren’t you afraid that making him do this will leave him unable to hold his head up in front of his friends?
Su Li turned his head curiously and asked, "Weren’t you the ones who agreed to this? He didn’t back out, but you’re starting to feel sorry for him. You’re really... the best friend in the world."
Qiu Yu’s expression froze, scrutinizing Su Li’s face to confirm she genuinely seemed to think this way, then gave an awkward laugh, "I was thinking of you. Li Yiyang is like a hot commodity; who knows how many girls have their eyes on him. You, this naive sweetheart, should be more vigilant."
Qiu Yu’s words carried a hint of frustration at Su Li’s naivety.
Su Li asked, "Does that include you?"
"Su Li, if you keep this up, I’m really going to get angry." Qiu Yu puffed up her cheeks like a pufferfish, angrily letting go of Su Li’s arm, loudly declaring her determination.
She gazed at Su Li with puzzled eyes, somewhat bewildered and annoyed, "What’s wrong with you today? Feels like you’ve turned into a completely different person, not at all like the kind you."
"You’re always suspicious, questioning everything. Don’t forget, you were the one who invited me on this ship trip; otherwise, I wouldn’t want to hang out with these rich kids."
"I’d rather peacefully watch shows and munch on snacks at home, isn’t that more comfortable than coming out here to find trouble for myself, and making you feel..."
As she spoke, Qiu Yu felt extremely aggrieved, her doe-like eyes fluttering, making others feel guilty, thinking they had committed an unforgivable crime.
Su Li said, "I was just joking, why are you so worked up."
Su Li’s calm tone left Qiu Yu unable to argue but feeling a bit moody, silently creating a rift between the two best friends.
Su Li glanced back, noticing that Li Yiyang was no longer where he had been.
"Ah Lee, I’m going to play games with Yacheng and the others first...."
Following the voice, Li Yiyang was already downstairs, being playfully dragged towards the game area by a tall guy towering over 1.8 meters.
Two other guys with different styles waved at Su Li with smiles.
After Li Yiyang’s figure disappeared around the corner on the first floor, a female voice appeared behind Su Li and Qiu Yu.
Judging by her familiarity, she seemed to have a good relationship with both Su Li and Qiu Yu.
"Ah Lee, Qiu Yu.... why are you just coming down now? I was about to head to your room to call you."
"Hurry up, everyone is waiting on the deck."
This girl had another style, glamorous and full of charm; compared to Qiu Yu’s innocence, she seemed more worldly.
She wore a bikini with only a few pieces of simple fabric, highlighting her curvaceous figure, sensually alluring.
Qiu Yu averted her gaze, looked down fiddling with her nails, and said, "Tian Yu, aren’t you afraid of catching a cold, wearing so little."
Mi Tianyu rolled her eyes dramatically, laughing exaggeratedly, "Qiu Yu, you’re so funny, we’re going swimming later, are you planning to dive in wrapped like a mummy?"
Three superficial flower sisters, this is how Su Li assessed them.
Mi Tianyu affectionately linked her arm with Su Li’s other arm and then, with a pointed emphasis, remarked, "Ah Lee, you’re naturally beautiful, with such smooth skin, even without makeup you’re stunning, unlike us, if we don’t wear waterproof cosmetics, there’s no way we’d dare to get in the water."
Mi Tianyu emphasized the word "us," making her target very obvious.
Mi Tianyu had fairly good skin, fair and flawless, whereas Qiu Yu’s complexion wasn’t very good.
A thin layer of foundation could still reveal traces of spots and blemishes. Her pores were also slightly large.
Qiu Yu’s face turned somewhat unpleasant, giving Mi Tianyu a fierce glare before turning aside to cling to Su Li’s arm as well, retorting against Mi Tianyu, "Unlike some people who also have grand dreams of snatching a rich husband back home."
"Not wanting to catch a rich husband, perhaps she has bigger goals."
"What nonsense are you talking about...."
"If you’re not guilty, why care about what I say...."
Qiu Yu and Mi Tianyu argued so fiercely that it gave Su Li a headache.
She retracted her previous evaluation; they weren’t close friends, probably enemies from a past life.
The two argued noisily all the way down the stairs, where a group of bikini-clad beauties and guys in shorts had already started having fun on the deck not far away.
Qiu Yu made an excuse to leave for a while; likely, Mi Tianyu’s bickering led her to touch up her makeup.
From Su Li’s view, she could naturally see those beauties engaged in a water-splashing game, each with a carefully crafted makeup look that was impeccable.
Not only did the water droplets not smudge their makeup, but they also made them glow under the sun as if their skin was like translucent white jade.
"A bunch of sly bitches," Mi Tianyu muttered under her breath.
Just as Su Li was happily admiring the beauties before her, Mi Tianyu suddenly adopted a secretive demeanor, pulling Su Li aside.
She glanced in the direction Qiu Yu left, confirming that she wouldn’t return for a while, then grasped Su Li’s hand, hesitatingly saying, "I have bad news, I don’t know if I should tell you."
Su Li replied, "Since it’s bad news, then don’t tell me."
Mi Tianyu started, "I saw...." Her words barely began before she realized what Su Li had just said, forcing the remaining half of her sentence to stop in her throat, feeling utterly uncomfortable.
Mi Tianyu’s face reddened, and she stood up for Su Li, "Among our dormmates, I know you and Qiu Yu are the closest, but you..."
It seemed like Mi Tianyu didn’t know how to convey this bad news to Su Li without making it too hard to accept.
After organizing her thoughts in her mind, Mi Tianyu decided that long pain was better than short pain and spoke out the news.
She took a deep breath and said, "I saw Qiu Yu and Li Yiyang kissing at your room’s door."
