My roommate didn't notice her expression.
But I noticed the fleeting guilt in Shen Yuan's eyes.
"Shen Yuan, what's wrong?" I didn't expose her, intentionally asking.
However, she quickly caught on, chuckling, "I'm fine."
"Just ask, anyway, this thing was given to me by Gu Heng."
"But whether he admits it or not is hard to say."
Her tone when she said this was somewhat subtle.
I furrowed my brows.
Before I could think too much, I saw her sit in her own seat.
But I could tell, she was still looking at me from the corner of her eye.
I pretended not to notice and answered the phone.
Just as the person on the other end was about to speak, I spoke softly, maintaining Gu Heng's devoted persona in front of everyone.
"Darling, I'm sorry, I was busy just now, kept you waiting for so long."
Gu Heng was taken aback, apparently choked on what he wanted to say, after a moment, he cleared his throat and said in a low voice, "It was quite a while, how do you plan to make it up to me?"
Me: "?"
Where did he learn these suggestive words from again?
I didn't say anything, but Gu Heng chuckled deeply, "When acting, you have to go all the way, Xia Wan."
Me: "..."
After a moment of thought, I cut to the chase, pretending to complain, "Did you give another girl a twenty-thousand-dollar necklace the other day?"
"You didn't know how happy she was when she received the necklace."
"You've never given me a twenty-thousand-dollar necklace."
What I said was true, Gu Heng had never bought such a cheap necklace before. After the incident with the little golden man, I was afraid he would buy some weird gift again, so I quietly told him I liked rings, and he ended up customizing a nearly million-dollar pink diamond ring from overseas.
My brain shrunk when I saw the price.
I told him to just buy any gift, but he said the gift he gave me had to be unique.
This time, I also wanted to tell her that when girls receive gifts, they are very happy as long as the thought is there, it doesn't have to be expensive.
"Other girls? Twenty thousand dollars?"
Gu Heng sounded puzzled.
Then he seemed to remember something and smiled, "This act is really unnecessary, besides you, my mom, and my sister, where else would I have other girls around me."
"Even if I give them gifts, twenty thousand dollars is too perfunctory."
"You really didn't give it?"
"Then tell me, who did I give it to?"
I looked up and saw Shen Yuan not far away, she seemed busy, but in reality, she was leaning slightly to try to listen to our conversation.
I said casually, "Just our roommate, Shen Yuan."
Shen Yuan's figure visibly stiffened for a moment.
Gu Heng, however, didn't hesitate, "I don't know her."
"During the last dorm dinner, I took you over there, you've met her before." I reminded him.
"It's been so long, who remembers?" Gu Heng said frankly.
I never doubted him in the first place, and we've been together for so long, I know very well that Gu Heng's mind is simpler than most people's. If he were really lying to me, he would have been caught by now.
After a moment of thought, I hung up the phone without a word.
Both roommates hurried over to ask what happened, I shook my head, sighed, and remained silent.
Shen Yuan thought I had lost to Gu Heng, the tension on her face visibly disappeared, and she chuckled lightly, "Just pretend it wasn't him who bought it. After all, how many guys would admit to giving gifts to other girls?"
"But don't ask about this matter anymore, just pretend you don't know, I'm afraid it will affect your relationship."
"Don't worry, we're just simple friends, don't overthink it, guys hate suspicious girls the most, especially outstanding guys like Gu Heng."
"It wasn't easy for you to win him over, I don't want my actions to affect your relationship."
"Shen Yuan, say a few less words." One roommate sensed her adding fuel to the fire and spoke anxiously.
Shen Yuan sneered lightly, but unexpectedly didn't argue back.
However, soon enough, I understood why.
Because Shen Yuan started causing trouble in front of me again.
