Absolutely Spoiled - Chapter 45.4
Chapter 45.4
That night, Yu Zhiyi updated a new chapter with 10,000 words of the novel “My Heart Is Falling in Love with You“ for the first time.
Readers were enthralled and eagerly discussing the latest updates in the book review section.
Yu Zhiyi’s second book was a hit and gained a large number of readers. They also started to read her first book as well, and all of them, including those who were reading Yu Zhiyi’s first book since she started to post it online, were eagerly waiting to know the happy end of the real-life couple.
Among them, two accounts that commented frequently caught Yu Zhiyi’s attention the most.
One reader was with Yu Zhiyi from the beginning, and that account’s profile picture remained the same. It seemed that only her book was in that person’s reading shelf, and that person would leave comments on every chapter she updated.
Now Yu Zhiyi had confirmed that this was a loyal fan.
The loyal fan left a message in the new chapter. [It’s a good thing that the secret love has become an open love; congratulations!]
Yu Zhiyi casually sent a red envelope of book coins in return.
There was also a new reader who suddenly appeared two months ago. She called that person “the rich reader” because every time she updated a chapter, that person would give generous rewards.
This happened for two months, and Yu Zhiyi was embarrassed to accept such rewards anymore. Therefore, she sent back two red envelopes to that reader, but the reader sent her a message saying, [Don’t give me red envelopes].
There was no other wealthy reader who was so honest.
[Tl: A red envelope is a present of money placed within an elaborate red paper pocket; it is called hongbao in Mandarin. In China and certain other Asian countries, they are presented as well wishes on special events, including birthdays, weddings, and Chinese New Year.
People in China are currently using WeChat Pay and Alipay to send digital red envelopes to each other.]

Now Shi Yi would come and wait for Yu Zhiyi outside the training room every day without any complaints.
She had discussed this with him several times. Yu Zhiyi knew that her boyfriend was very busy with his studies and other things. Therefore, she felt sorry for him.
But in this matter, Shi Yi was very firm. “I have to take good care of my family.”
The vice president of the Arts and Literature Department heard Shi Yi’s words, and he walked out trembling all over.
He had some bad thoughts about Yu Zhiyi before, but after finding out about Yu Zhiyi and Shi Yi’s relationship, he decided to stay away from her.
Shi Yi was Yu Zhiyi’s childhood sweetheart, who was an outstanding one in all aspects, so how could the vice president think about snatching Shi Yi’s girlfriend from him?
***
Now Yu Zhiyi didn’t get any special attention from the vice president, so she could train with peace of mind.
They successfully completed their task by New Year’s Day and attracted many students’ attention, making them happy.
After that big festival was over, Yu Zhiyi’s big day was approaching: her 18th birthday.
Her 18th birthday was coming, but her friends seemed to have forgotten about it.
It was not that she wanted gifts from her friends, but she noticed something strange this time.
Qiao Lezhi, who would usually send blessings for others on every special day, and Wen Tingyu, who cared about Yu Zhiyi, seemed to have forgotten the birthday.
Once Jiang Mier casually mentioned her birthday, and that was it.
‘Maybe, it is because we have been apart for too long, and they have all made new friends.’ Yu Zhiyi thought with a little sadness.
***
Suddenly Qiao Lezhi messaged Yu Zhiyi one day before her birthday, saying she was coming to City C to celebrate her birthday.
Yu Zhiyi was very surprised.
As she was about to exit the message interface, Liao Zhewen, the monitor of Class 16 in high school whom she hadn’t contacted before, messaged her.
Liao Zhewen: [I’m Liao Zhewen. Are you free tomorrow? ]
Yu Zhiyi: [???]
Liao Zhewen: [I will come to City C tomorrow, so I can celebrate your birthday with you.]
Yu Zhiyi couldn’t help but wonder why everyone was coming to City C for her birthday.
She hesitated on declining Liao Zhewen’s invitation because she didn’t want to entertain a boy other than her boyfriend, but Liao Zhewen suddenly sent another message.
[Back then, I returned your notebook and protected your secrets. You wouldn’t refuse to even have a meal with my benefactor, right?]
‘Oh, I almost forgot that I still owed Liao Zhewen a favour.’
She couldn’t refuse such a simple request from her benefactor, so she reluctantly agreed to add him to the group.
Yu Zhiyi sent the dinner time to Liao Zhewen, and he said he would arrive around 2 pm.
Yu Zhiyi told Shi Yi about this.
After receiving this message, Shi Yi made a “tsk” sound.
At two o’clock, he would have already finished his work. At that time, would his girlfriend still have the mind to have dinner with others?
Have a nice day!

Ugh Liao Zhewen
