Chapter 672 - 710: Michelle’s Dilemma
When Li Yifei came back again, Michelle was still playing mahjong with everyone. Seeing him return, her previously listless face instantly brightened. Li Yifei pulled up a chair and sat down next to her, saying, "How’s it going?"
"Not good at all, I’ve lost quite a bit again." Michelle pouted cutely, taking the rare opportunity to act coquettishly with Li Yifei, and now she did so very naturally.
A boy sitting opposite immediately laughed and said, "I tell you, Yifei, Michelle was distracted the whole time you were gone for over an hour. How could she not lose? She really cares about you too much. You didn’t go out to meet a lover, did you?"
Although that was a joke, it actually hit the mark. Li Yifei just laughed and said, "With a girlfriend like Michelle, why would I look for a lover? That would be foolish."
Michelle, hearing this, was even happier and said cheerfully, "Then play for a bit."
"No need, you play. I’ll just watch."
Michelle felt this was even better because she wouldn’t have to be dragged away by her female classmates and could stay with Li Yifei.
Thanks to Li Yifei’s return, not only did Michelle’s spirits improve, but her luck in the game did too. Following five consecutive victories, it took a lot of effort for her opponent to win a round and end her streak. However, she continued to win repeatedly and in less than an hour, Michelle had not only won back what she lost but also made a slight profit.
The stakes weren’t high; even when they lost the most, Li Yifei and Michelle together were only down a few hundred yuan, and now they had won just over a hundred. This amount of money was insignificant to Michelle, but she was genuinely very happy.
During this time, everyone naturally teased Michelle a bit, but she took it in good stride. The more others joked about her and Li Yifei, the happier she became.
