Chapter 600: Overly Jealous and Possessive ‘Psychos’

“Gaofei…”
Liao Gaofei hurriedly turned his head once he noted the wrongness in Fu Mingxuan’s voice. He then saw that his close friend’s perpetually smiling face was grim this time. It was obvious that he was not in a good mood.
“Mingxuan, what’s wrong?” He was shocked by the latter’s somber expression.
His question also caught the attention of Mu Heng, who was standing next to him.
Mu Heng looked over and frowned at the gloominess written all over Fu Mingxuan’s face.
“What’s wrong?” he asked as well, raising a brow in confusion.
“Yes. Didn’t you go get your goddess? Where is she? Why are you alone? Don’t tell me that she has disappeared again?” Carefree as always, Liao Gaofei started making wild guesses.
Little did he know that his wild guesses were all spot on.
He then saw his friend’s face turn gloomier after he had said that.
“Pfft! Seriously, Mingxuan! You’re tall, rich, and handsome, yet your goddess ran out on you?” As someone romantically inclined, Mu Heng could tell from the man’s face that all of their other friend’s baseless guesses hit the nail on the head.
“Yeah…” Fu Mingxuan pursed his lips into a tight line. His dark brown eyes no longer carried their previous tenderness. Right now, they were gloomy, as if dark clouds were cast on them, making anyone looking uncomfortable.
“She’s… always been different from other girls.” He sighed; his voice was full of helplessness.
With his heart full of joy earlier, he went to find the girl he had been waiting for over a decade. What he did not expect was to be abandoned by her again.
This kind of feeling was terrible – really terrible.
“She’s definitely different in her ability to abandon a rich and handsome guy like you! Tsk, tsk. Even I am a little interested now,” Mu Heng remarked offhandedly, his playboy eyes full of interest.
“Keep your hands off her.”
Who knew that their friend, who had a gentle disposition, would turn hostile the moment he heard him say that?
“D*mn! I was just kidding! Fu Mingxuan, are you serious?!” Mu Heng was shocked by his threat.
He truly did not expect there to be another overly jealous and possessive ‘psycho’ besides Ji Ziming in their small group of four.
“Pfft!” Liao Gaofei looked at the two and then chortled.
“Mingxuan, do you know your goddess’s contact details?”
He shook his head blankly at his friend’s question, giving the latter a pained smile.
“No…”
Yes, he did not know… He knew nothing. She did not even know that he liked her.
Still, he recognized her at a glance earlier… He did seem… a little laughable.
“That’s fine. Most of this event’s attendees are from our circle. If you really want to find her, you can easily do that.” Mu Heng gave the man a pat on the shoulder upon seeing his pain-filled smile.
“Yeah! Since she attended this party, she should be easy to find. Oh, right. What’s her name, and who did she come with?” Liao Gaofei agreed to Mu Heng’s words and started comforting him as well.
Fu Mingxuan felt a little better when he saw that these two honestly wanted to help him.
“I think she came with a boyfriend; her name is—”
Just as he was about to say Pei Ge’s name, to his surprise, his childhood friends froze and then started laughing aloud.
“Your goddess already has a boyfriend? This is a little tough, then! Men who can attend this party are usually big shots. Tsk, tsk!” Mu Heng looked at him sympathetically. “No wonder your goddess abandoned you in a heartbeat – she already has a boyfriend!”
“It can’t be that you want to be the third party, right? Ha ha!” Liao Gaofei guffawed as if he had heard a joke.
As he watched these two laugh aloud, the corners of his mouth twitched. He was moved a moment ago, but he was angry now.
This group of bad influences! Really bad influences.
“Hmph. She said she has a boyfriend, but I think she’s lying,” he said indignantly.
Although many years had passed since their last meeting, he thought that he had a pretty good read of her character.
When he asked her earlier, she averted her gaze and did not sound very sure, so he thought that she was probably lying to him.
“Ha ha! Why would she lie to you?” Liao Gaofei laughed, clearly not buying it.
Mu Heng was even more heartless. “If that’s the case, isn’t that even worse? She must be uninterested in you at all; otherwise, why would she make up a lie to you?” He asked this between his laughter.
“You’d better pray that she actually does have a boyfriend, or else there’s no hope for you!”
This Casanova continued teasing him, even giving the latter a wink.
“Pfft! Ha ha ha! I truly didn’t expect our prince of popularity and comrade, Fu Mingxuan, to encounter such a situation! This is so hilarious!” Liao Gaofei gloated.
The four of them grew up together. If they had to name the most popular with girls among them, it was not Mu Heng, who was an eloquent speaker, nor was it the Ji Ziming, who was the most good-looking of them four. It had always been Fu Mingxuan with his warm and gentle smile.
In college, he was indubitably the prince of popularity!
Of course, of them four, the one with the worst luck in ladies was Liao Gaofei.
Otherwise, he would not be this enthusiastic upon learning that their usually popular friend had suffered a setback with a girl.
Just as the two were mercilessly teasing him, whose face had turned dark again by now, an exclamation came from the dance floor.
“Wow!”
“So beautiful!”
The three turned their heads to the dance floor at this.
When he looked, he was first entranced, and then his face froze.
“That’s!”
