I Went Viral After Dating a Superstar-Chapter 179 - 168: He is My Boyfriend

Mu Qianli thought, being with him made her feel like her entire age had regressed, and yet he didn’t seem to care at all.

At that moment, Gu Xunyi sent a message over...

She paused, opened the message, and upon seeing it, her heart suddenly tightened, almost making her throw her phone away...

Did Gu Xunyi just see them?

How was that possible...

Mu Qianli tried to recall, but no matter what, she couldn’t remember seeing Gu Xunyi.

It was just that she had been playing too wildly with Pei Jinxi and hadn’t paid attention to the people around her,

What a blunder, what a blunder.

She wanted to knock on her own head, really, her IQ seemed to drop whenever she was with Pei Jinxi, how could she make such a mistake.

"What’s wrong?" Pei Jinxi looked at the suddenly halted Mu Qianli.

Mu Qianli looked up, at a loss for words.

"What should we do, someone just saw us."

Pei Jinxi was taken aback, he leaned in, saw that it was Gu Xunyi’s call, his eyebrows moved slightly, and his expression gradually became calm, not frightened, but instead he took her phone and replied.

"What’s wrong, are you going to expose us? Go ahead, we don’t mind," he typed.

"Hey, how could you send that!"

Mu Qianli jumped up the moment she saw it.

"Quick, take it back!"

Mu Qianli shouted.

"That won’t do," said Pei Jinxi as he raised his hand, and Mu Qianli couldn’t reach it no matter how she jumped.

"What are you doing!"

Pei Jinxi smiled and embraced her, caught her dissatisfied hands, touched her nose with his finger, and looked at her anxious face, "If he saw it, he saw it. Whether he exposes us or not, the choice is in his hands. If you plead with him, he still has the initiative. So, why beg at all? Besides, we really don’t mind, we are not doing anything underhanded, so what is there to fear?"

"But... what about your career, your fans will curse you to death, okay!" she said.

"I am their idol, and I must do what an idol should do. This time I will teach them, as a man, the first thing to do is to take responsibility, to be honest. I’m not trying to sell my identity as somebody’s boyfriend, what I want to sell is my work, not my person."

Mu Qianli was suddenly at a loss for words.

She just stared at the handsome man in front of her, feeling in her heart that he was incredibly noble at this moment.

What he thought of was what so many celebrities needed to consider; they had forgotten what they were selling in their pursuit of popularity and the fear of disappointing people.

Or maybe selling their public image has already become mainstream, so those who don’t do it are a rarity now.

She took a deep breath, finally feeling a bit like it was all or nothing, she stopped trying to take back the phone, but she said, "Let me see what he says."

And the fact was, Gu Xunyi didn’t reply for half a day.

He probably didn’t expect Mu Qianli to respond that way.

Was she acting on impulse, or was it stubbornness after anger?

Or maybe she was scared?

After a full minute, he replied, "Am I that kind of person? But now that you’ve admitted it, is he your boyfriend?"

"Yes."

Mu Qianli knew then that there was no use in denying it anymore.

He replied, "I didn’t expect it, but since this is your choice, I wish you well. I’m not the kind of person who would cause trouble, you can rest assured."

Mu Qianli felt much better seeing his response,

Maybe she thought too poorly of the people in the entertainment industry, in reality, beyond the lights, they too are ordinary people.

"Thank you." She replied.
