Chapter 47: Oh No, Looks Like I've Been Stuck With This Annoying Love Rival


Xia Changyu had been through a lot that day.


At first, he came to Binhai for a vacation, feeling happy and excited. After all, who doesn’t want to travel with a good mood?


But then, while walking past a small alley, he got robbed.


Just like Lin Yibai had done in the past, as a man, he felt it was his duty to protect his girlfriend, so he stayed behind to cover for her, even getting beaten up in the process.


And then, at the end of it all...


What if someone told you, it was all just a prank? No, it wasn’t even a prank!


His own girlfriend had worked with the robbers to “test” whether he really loved her?


If it were just a simple test, maybe it could be forgiven.


But the key thing is, those people really beat him badly. He still had bruises all over his body, and they hurt.


Xia Changyu felt angry, then bored, and finally... completely disappointed.


He let out a sigh and asked quietly, “Do you think my girlfriend might have...?”


“Don’t ask me,” Lin Yibai cut him off.


“Can’t I at least ask for advice?”


“And who am I to you? A therapist? You think I’m here to give you emotional support? Who do you think you are?”


“Haha.” Xia Changyu suddenly burst out laughing.


He couldn’t help but take a good look at the girl next to him. The more he looked, the more pleasant she seemed. Even his frustration started to fade away. The world didn’t seem so bad anymore.


Compared to her, his girlfriend...


Ah, no!

Xia Changyu quickly shook his head. He had totally given up on Gu Xiaoxue.


Bossy, selfish, fake, rude...

And even stupid enough to team up with thugs to beat up her own boyfriend. And not just a light hit, but a full-on beating.


Who would dare stay with someone like that?


There was nothing to think about anymore.


He’d just go back and break up with her. Simple as that. Ha!


While he was lost in thought, a QR code suddenly appeared in front of him.


“Huh?” Xia Changyu’s eyes lit up. He looked excited. “Wait, are you... adding me as a friend?”


“I’m just sending you something.”


“What is it?”


“Something good…”


Could it be... some private photos of the girl?


But no, it really was photos, but not of her. They were evidence showing Yang Yueping meeting secretly with Lian Haifeng and the others.


There was also an audio recording.


In it, they were discussing how to set up Xia Changyu, how to beat him up badly, and “teach him a lesson.”


After sending everything, Lin Yibai said, “Now you know why I came to Binhai. I didn’t really want to travel. I also don’t have enough money to enjoy a relaxing May Day holiday at the beach.”


Wait, what did she mean by that?


It was true. Lin Yibai didn’t have enough money for much sightseeing or fun. To her, just visiting this place was enough. That’s what mattered.


So to save money, she planned to leave as soon as possible.


But Xia Changyu didn’t like that idea. He almost wanted to say, ‘You don’t have money, but I do!’


If she was willing, he would cover all her expenses for the entire May Day holiday.


But he couldn’t say that, because they didn’t have that kind of close relationship.


In short, no status and no reason.


‘But what if I say I’m doing it to thank her?’ 


Thinking that, Xia Changyu said, “You helped me a lot. So to thank you... how about I pay for your trip?”


But before he even finished, Lin Yibai shot back. “Who do you think you’re looking down on?!”


She swore, she wasn’t exactly some noble gentleman. If one of her roommates had offered to pay, she would’ve taken full advantage and eaten them into bankruptcy.


But this was a love rival!


Even if she no longer had feelings for Gu Xiaoxue, that still made things awkward.


But no matter what, a love rival is still an annoying love rival, that will never change.


“Ah, I’m sorry,” Xia Changyu realized he had said something wrong. It sounded like he was using money to insult her, so he quickly apologized to the girl in front of him.


Then he remembered how hard Lin Yibai had worked at the convention, doing part-time jobs. All the money she earned was through honest hard work.


After all, it was money earned through sweat and effort.


And then he thought about Gu Xiaoxue and her roommates…


The words “parasites” suddenly came to his mind.


Compared to Lin Yibai, the difference felt even bigger now.


Looking at the message he had just received on WeChat, Xia Changyu quickly replied with a simple: “1”.


But then, a red exclamation mark popped up on the screen.


It turned out, after sending him the evidence, Lin Yibai had deleted him from her friends list.


This WeChat account was a new one she made just for her female identity, so she only wanted to keep important people as friends.


How could she give a spot to an annoying love rival?


Xia Changyu felt sad. He couldn’t help but ask, “Why… why did you delete me?”


Lin Yibai shrugged and said casually, “We’re not going to talk again anyway. Why keep you? For New Year’s greetings?”


After seeing the dark side of Gu Xiaoxue, Lin Yibai had completely let go of everything related to her. That meant she had no reason to interact with Xia Changyu anymore.


She would simply go back to living her life as before.


The car stopped at a small hotel by the beach. Lin Yibai got out and said, “Well, I’m off. Bye… actually, I hope we never meet again. Every time I see you, something bad happens.”


Xia Changyu also got out of the car.


He watched Lin Yibai jog toward the hotel. It looked like a cheap place.


Only about 100 yuan per night.


It was nothing like the fancy seaside hotel where he had been staying.


Xia Changyu sighed and said, “She came all this way just to help me… and she’s staying in a place like that… and I didn’t even get the chance to thank her. Sigh!”


His guilt started to grow deeper.


He went over to the side of the road and sat on the sidewalk curb. Now he didn’t even know where to go.


Going back to the hotel? No way.


He didn’t want to see Gu Xiaoxue or her friends ever again.


Just then, from the corner of his eye, he saw the same girl, Lin Yibai, walking out of the hotel she had just entered, looking completely frustrated.


“Damn it!!” she muttered angrily. She had forgotten she used her male ID to book the room.


Now, anyone who’s ever stayed in a hotel knows…


If a woman who isn’t listed as a guest comes in late at night, most decent hotels or motels will stop her. Lin Yibai had just been kicked out, mistaken for a sketchy person.


“I need to quickly figure out how to change back,” she mumbled, and Xia Changyu, who had just walked up, overheard her.


“Change back? What do you mean?”


“Hmm?” Lin Yibai was already annoyed, but when she saw it was that annoying guy again, she couldn’t help but frown.


“Ugh, why are you still here?”


“You really don’t like me, do you?”


“No.”


“Then—”


“I’ve got things to do.”


She walked faster. Today had been a terrible day. Because of this annoying love rival, she now didn’t even have a place to sleep.


She didn’t want to use her female ID to book another room. 100 yuan is still money, after all. It’s not like money falls from the sky!


She would only book another room if she really had no choice. Then, Xia Changyu followed her again.


“What do you want now?”


Ugh, how annoying. Why was he still following her?


Even though she was clearly annoyed, Xia Changyu felt strangely happy and asked, “Where are you going?”


“Getting some late-night food.”


“Let’s go together.”


“No way.”


“It’s just a midnight snack, no big deal!”


“Can’t you go back to your fancy hotel?”


“You saw what happened today. I’m afraid they might hurt me if I go back!”


Oh no...


Looks like this annoying love rival won’t leave me alone.
