This Witch Transmigrated into the Romantic Novel's Supporting Role

Chapter 39

“I have a basketball game next week, do you want to come watch? I'll get you tickets.” Chi Yan said.

“Sure, can I bring my roommate too?” Chu Yang thought she could go, she didn't have much going on anyway.

“Okay, I'll get you tickets if I have time.”

“Mm.”

The two were eating when five people came in, Chu Yang accidentally saw that it was the male and female leads, Lin Shushu and two other girls.

Chu Yang glanced at them then looked away, but unexpectedly they happened to pass by their table when coming in. As soon as Lin Shushu saw Chu Yang she rolled her eyes, but she had learned her lesson and didn't come up to Chu Yang to mock her. If it was before, she would have come up to ridicule her already.

But she still whispered in Li Qinglu's ear: “How unlucky, ran into Chu Yang again, she's like a vengeful ghost.”

Li Qinglu shook her hand, signaling her not to speak recklessly, and glanced at them before looking away too. If she didn't see wrongly, the boy eating with Chu Yang was the same one who had spoken up for Chu Yang last time, and was also the campus heartthrob from the neighboring B University.

Thinking about how people said that Chu Yang had found someone better which was why she distanced herself, Li Qinglu felt this reason seemed quite credible.

Chi Yan of course saw the people, and said to Chu Yang: “Did they bully you again after that?” Because it seemed like every time he ran into them he felt Chu Yang was being bullied by those people. And he had also heard Chu Yang really liked that Gu Xiao before, in his opinion that Gu Xiao was just average.

Chu Yang shook her head, “No, they didn't bully me, I’m not someone that can be bullied by just anyone.” In her view, verbal sparring did not count as bullying, and she did not feel bullied.

“That’s good then. That Gu Xiao...just average.” Chi Yan looked at Chu Yang, then said with lowered eyebrows.

Chu Yang felt there was nothing wrong with this statement, and agreed: “Mm, just average.” He was still quite good compared to ordinary people, after all he was the male lead. But he was probably just average in Chi Yan’s eyes. As for her, she was indifferent to Gu Xiao, but it was quite annoying how he looked at her like trash every time.

Hearing her say this, Chi Yan let out a breath of relief.

After eating their fill, this time Chi Yan did not take the initiative to pay, and let Chu Yang foot the bill. There should be give and take for a good relationship.

The two walked out of the restaurant. Chi Yan skillfully handed Chu Yang a helmet, and put one on himself too. They then got on the little lambretta and left. Inside the restaurant, Lin Shushu had been watching them the whole time. Seeing them leave on the little lambretta, she couldn’t help letting out a mocking laugh. “Look at Chu Yang and that guy, riding a little lambretta? Hahaha.”

One of the girls, Feng Wenwen, was puzzled and asked: “Ah? What’s wrong with a little lambretta?”

Lin Shushu said arrogantly: “Nothing much, just feels like with Chu Yang finding a guy like that, he doesn’t look like much. Not like Qinglu and Gu Xiao who both have cars, his is just a little lambretta. A poor loser really doesn’t deserve to date.”

Feng Wenwen looked at Lin Shushu but didn’t say anything. She didn’t agree with her viewpoint, but it wasn’t good to start an argument either. One look and you could tell Lin Shushu and that girl were not on good terms.

The other girl, Zhao Xing Er, directly said: “Huh? But that guy just now was Chi Yan! If Chi Yan took me for a ride on his bike I’d be overjoyed!”

Lin Shushu: “Is Chi Yan that amazing? He’s just a guy from the neighboring B University who looks decent. He doesn’t look rich either, just ordinary.” Of course she said this partly out of her own motives: that guy had spoken up for Chu Yang last time and said they were bullying Chu Yang, ganging up on her!

Zhao Xing Er’s eyes widened. “What? Amazing? You really don’t know? His parents are famous professors, intellectual elites. I heard his family has government officials too, not sure about the rest, but his family background is impressive.”

Lin Shushu was stunned. “That great? But he looks so ordinary in how he dresses, none of it branded.”

Zhao Xing Er rolled her eyes. “Don’t you know the richer people are the more low-key they are? He doesn’t care about stuff like that at all. And how do you know his stuff isn’t all custom-made?”

Lin Shushu: ......

Zhao Xing Er: “Don't offend him, okay? If you offend him don't say you know me in the future.”

Lin Shushu laughed in exasperation. “Come on, can one person really have that much power?”

Zhao Xing Er: “No, I just feel people with such narrow perspectives should be avoided.”

Lin Shushu: “You...”

Li Qinglu quickly smoothed things over: “Xing’er, sorry, we were originally friends with Chuang Chuang, just had a falling out, and we don’t really know Chi Yan either, just that he knows Chuang Chuang. We didn’t offend him.”

Zhao Xing Er wiped her mouth: “Then that’s fine. Hurry up and eat, I still have things to do.”

Zhao Xing Er and Feng Wenwen had only become roommates with Li Qinglu this semester. Today, Li Qinglu’s boyfriend Gu Xiao treated their whole dorm to a meal. Li Qinglu and Lin Shushu were closer, while Zhao Xing Er and Feng Wenwen didn’t want to turn down the free meal despite not knowing them well. After the meal, they felt it would be better in the future not to get too close with these soon-to-be roommates.

After splitting up, Lin Shushu said to Li Qinglu: “Didn’t expect the guy Chu Yang knows to be so powerful. How did she get to know such an influential figure? Do you know, Qinglu?” Li Qinglu shook her head, she definitely didn’t know.

Lin Shushu went on: “It’s also because she knows such an influential figure that she wouldn’t tell you, she was afraid you’d steal him away. I think she must have seduced him with her looks. Definitely.”

Li Qinglu was preoccupied: “Maybe so.”

Lin Shushu asserted: “Definitely. Isn’t that how she wormed her way to your side? Acting pitiful and trying to get those guys’ attention on her. Qinglu, you have to be careful of girls like her, those green tea bitches are all pretenders, they love to steal other girls’ men the most.”

Chi Yan dropped Chu Yang off at her dorm building. Chu Yang returned the helmet to him, “Bye bye.”

Chi Yan also bid farewell and the two parted ways.

Returning to school, Chi Yan asked Yuan Zhi: “Are there still tickets left for next week’s basketball game?”

Yuan Zhi: “What, you want to give them to someone? How many?”

Chi Yan thought for a bit: “Four, for Chu Yang and her three roommates.”

Hearing this, Wei Feng hurried over and cut in: “Oh~ so what happened? Did the beauty seduce you? Where did you go today? You were absent this morning and disappeared after school, and left on the new little lambretta. And you were carrying two helmets, did you go play with the beauty?”

Chi Yan pushed away his nosy head: “I had something this morning. Are there tickets?”

Yuan Zhi nodded: “There are. But it’ll have to wait until tomorrow, they’re at the student union office.”

“Okay.”

Wei Feng said on the side: “He definitely went on a date with the beauty just now.”

Sitting at his desk, Chi Yan said: “No date, just ate a meal.”

Wei Feng: “That’s still a date!”

Chi Yan ignored him and sent Chu Yang a message: “Are you free tomorrow? I’ll bring the tickets over tonight.”

Chu Yang replied with a thumbs up emoji.
