Chapter 2271: A Match Made in Heaven

Li Moning immediately widened her eyes: "She dares!"

"People with ambition are capable of doing anything."

Ambition?

Hearing these words, Li Moning suddenly thought of the way Xu Huan approached Qingkong.

For a moment, Li Moning pursed her lips and fell silent.

But Ling Xiaoxiao did not let her remain silent for too long.

Ling Xiaoxiao nudged Li Moning with her arm: "Let's talk about you, why didn't you seize the opportunity to chat more with Qingkong?"

"I had just chatted with him for two sentences when he was called away by the music teacher."

The music teacher?

Ling Xiaoxiao's lips moved, about to say something.

But she suddenly changed her mind and instead cheered Li Moning on: "Don't be discouraged, there's plenty of time ahead."

Ling Xiaoxiao was comforting her friend.

It was just a pity that her comfort didn't have much effect.

Li Moning let her shoulders droop and sighed: "I'm just afraid there won't be plenty of time ahead."

"Oh, why are you saying such disheartening things!"

"It's not that I'm being disheartening, you didn't see the scene at the time; the music teacher was standing beside him, and the two of them... were a perfect match."

When Li Moning said this, her heart felt sour.

The girl who was always sunny and positive suddenly understood what it felt like to have low self-esteem.

But Ling Xiaoxiao could not bear to see Li Moning wallowing in self-pity.

She immediately said: "I think you and Qingkong are a better match!"

"Really?"

"Of course it's true, Qingkong is steady and handsome, and you, you're charming and cute; standing together, you're a match made in heaven!"

When Ling Xiaoxiao spoke, she clasped her hands together and placed them under her chin.

The expression on her face was full of longing.

Li Moning couldn't help but cough lightly: "Cough, that's an exaggeration."

"Not at all, you two are like the prince and princess in a story, you'll be together sooner or later!"

Ling Xiaoxiao was adamant.

And her words made Li Moning secretly happy.

Actually, Li Moning also knew that Ling Xiaoxiao's words were exaggerated.

But she still couldn't help but feel her heart surge.

Seeing Li Moning purse her lips and smile secretly, Ling Xiaoxiao knew her comfort had worked.

This made Ling Xiaoxiao heave a sigh of relief.

But there were some things she had to remind Li Moning of: "Qingkong is very excellent and very charming; a man like him is not only appreciated by you, but by others as well."

Ling Xiaoxiao was right.

Hadn't Qingkong just arrived today and already had his charm discovered by others?

Li Moning thought again of the scene of Qingkong walking away with the music teacher.

This made her slowly retract the smile at the corners of her mouth.

"If, I'm just saying if, someone really makes a move on Qingkong, what will you do?"

Li Moning was dazed for a moment.

Afterwards, she said forlornly: "It depends on Qingkong's choice; if he finds his true love... I will wish him well."

"Huh? Wish him well, what wish him well, you have to step in and snatch him!"

"Things that don't belong to me are useless to snatch."

"But love is different, love must be fought for!"

"……Hmm, I'll try fighting for it."

Don't look at how Li Moning said she would fight for it; the dejected aura she was giving off didn't look like she was about to fight for anything.

Ling Xiaoxiao scratched her hair, feeling a bit puzzled: "The Li Moning I know fears nothing, how come the moment she encounters matters of the heart, she becomes like a shrinking turtle? You wouldn't have backed down a while ago!"

"I... sigh, he treats me like a younger sister, so naturally I can't be optimistic."

These past few days, whenever Li Moning thought of what Qingkong said, she felt her heart tighten.

Having just seen Qingkong walking with someone who was a perfect match for him, Li Moning's heart was instantly shrouded in pessimistic emotions.

Even now, she hadn't quite recovered.

Ling Xiaoxiao understood Li Moning's mood.

Facing the person they like, girls will inevitably be anxious about gains and losses.

As a friend, one must definitely provide unconditional support at such times.

But just as Ling Xiaoxiao was about to say something, she noticed two figures walking this way.

And one of them successfully made Ling Xiaoxiao's eyes light up.

She hurriedly tugged at Li Moning's sleeve and urged: "Look quickly, speak of the devil and he shall appear!"

Huh?

Li Moning was confused.

When she looked at Ling Xiaoxiao, she found Ling Xiaoxiao signaling her to look behind.

When she turned her head like that...

Li Moning saw Qingkong walking over with the music teacher.

The two of them were chatting as they walked.

Qingkong's expression was as usual, gentlemanly and polite.

But on the music teacher's face hung a brilliant smile.

This music teacher was usually indifferent to everyone.

She even carried an air of arrogance about her.

It was precisely that air of arrogance that had so many boys infatuated with her.

If they were to see the brilliant smile on the music teacher's face right now...

They would probably be disillusioned.

The music teacher raised her hand to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear and said in a soft voice, "I have no experience in organizing activities before, so I might have to trouble you to look after me a little."

The director had just called Qingkong over because he wanted him and the music teacher to be responsible for the student photography exhibition being held in a while.

A small activity like this would not take up much time.

Since Qingkong also happened to want to see how his teaching effect was after a period of time, he agreed.

Now hearing the person beside him express gratitude, Qingkong said politely and distantly, "I also have no experience in organizing activities; this time it is a mutual cooperation."

"But you have experience in participating in activities. Come to think of it, it is all thanks to the director, otherwise I wouldn't have the chance to cooperate with a famous photographer like you."

Qingkong could not stand this woman's coy, delicate voice anymore.

To avoid this person continuing to thank him back and forth, he changed the subject: "For your director to dare let two people with no experience organize an activity, he is truly bold."

"Rather than saying he is bold, it is better to say he has a discerning eye for talent."

After saying this, the music teacher realized her words could easily cause ambiguity and hurriedly explained: "Oh, I mean, you are that bright pearl."

Logically speaking, after hearing this, Qingkong should return the courtesy and also use some beautiful vocabulary to describe the female teacher.

But Qingkong only smiled and did not speak.

This caused the expression on the teacher's face to stiffen for a moment.

However, very quickly, the teacher found a new topic again and made awkward small talk with Qingkong.

Because of the distance, Ling Xiaoxiao and Li Moning could not hear the content of the conversation over there.

But judging from the music teacher's smile, which was as bright as peach blossoms, the atmosphere between the two was quite harmonious.

Ling Xiaoxiao rubbed her chin and asked Li Moning: "Have you discovered a pattern?"

"What?"

"The people who can stay by Qingkong's side are all soft and weak."

"Is that so?"

"Of course! Look at how Xu Huan gained Qingkong's special attention because of her fragility, and our music teacher also had contact with Qingkong because she is coy and delicate."

Li Moning thought for a moment and murmured thoughtfully: "It really is like that. So, Qingkong likes this style?"

"It must be like that!"

Ling Xiaoxiao was about to say something more.

But her peripheral vision caught Qingkong walking quickly in this direction.

It looked like...

He was coming over to find Li Moning.
