Don't think of rebirth.

Chapter 60: Not too concerned

The National Day holiday is over and the students who had had so much fun are back in the classroom.

Qin Yue brought back a big bag of chocolates and sent them to everyone one by one. When he sent it to Gu Qinghuan, he specifically asked her if she had read his circle of friends.

Gu Qinghuan took a piece of chocolate from the bag, unwrapped it and put it in his mouth: "Look, it's quite lively. You must be having a lot of fun."

Qin Yue was very satisfied. As long as Gu Qinghuan saw it, it would be fine. He couldn't be the only one who got upset because of the time difference when seeing the snacks sent by Gu Qinghuan.

He remembered something again and asked secretly, "What do you think of my brother?"

"Ah?" Gu Qinghuan paused as she unwrapped the second piece of chocolate, looking a little bewildered. "Are you really grateful to him for helping me join the student union?"

"No!" Qin Yue said, "What I mean is, do you think nothing of my brother?"

Gu Qinghuan was even more confused: "When did I see your brother? Weren't you in Germany during the National Day?"

"Photos! Photos!" Qin Yue took out his phone and flipped to his Moments. "Look, this is my brother Qin Min!"

Gu Qinghuan came over and suddenly realized: "So this person is your brother!"

She did see this young man in several photos, but not in every photo. Besides, she didn't only look at Qin Yue when she browsed her friends circle.

After looking at it from time to time, she was only focused on Qin Yue and the scenic spots and food in the photos, and had no time to pay attention to the other people in the photos.

Qin Yue's mood was a little subtle. How should I put it? It was a bit of a weird...sense of superiority?

He pursed his lips, but still couldn't control the corners of his mouth that slightly raised: "My brother is so handsome, you haven't seen him?"

Gu Qinghuan glanced at the phone a few more times and commented, "He is indeed very handsome, and has a very proper and mature appearance. He looks very steady just by looking at him."

She just made a simple comment and didn't continue to ask about Qin Min, but Qin Yue was very happy.

He stuffed all the remaining chocolates to Gu Qinghuan: "All for you!"

Gu Qinghuan was just secretly thinking about how to get a few more chocolates—mainly because they suited her taste—but when they were all stuffed into her hands, she was startled: "Huh?"

"He's showing off!" Jiang Chuchu couldn't stand it anymore and said unhappily, "In the past, people who saw photos of him and his brother would ask him 'Who is this?' or 'Is this someone you know?' He would be very disappointed."

"But since you didn't care about his brother, he felt that you didn't 'betray' him, so of course he was happy!" Jiang Chuchu exposed Qin Yue's little thoughts.

Qin Yue was a little embarrassed, and muttered softly: "Everyone would be unhappy if their attention was always taken away, right?"

After hearing Jiang Chuchu say this, Gu Qinghuan fell into deep thought.

"What's wrong with you?" Qin Yue asked curiously.

Gu Qinghuan looked up at him and said solemnly: "Sorry, I want to correct the mistake I made just now."

"What?" Her attitude was so serious that Qin Yue became a little nervous.

"During the holidays, many people were posting photos on WeChat Moments. I basically just took a quick look at them, so I didn't pay much attention to your photos." Gu Qinghuan said frankly.

"Not only did I not pay attention to your brother in the photo, I didn't pay attention to the rest of your family. I only paid attention to you and the food and the attractions."

"So?" Qin Yue didn't quite understand.

"I think it's normal for me to pay attention to you as a friend, but not paying attention to a friend's family is also perfunctory." Gu Qinghuan said, "So - I'm sorry."

Although it is also possible that she knew that Qin Yue had a brother named Qin Min, so when she saw the photo, she subconsciously regarded the older man in the photo as Qin Min.

However, Gu Qinghuan knew very well that she just didn't take it seriously.

If what Qin Yue wanted was for her to pay more attention to him rather than his brother, then according to Jiang Chuchu's explanation, Qin Yue obviously had a misunderstanding.

Gu Qinghuan couldn't let him misunderstand her any further, because misunderstanding could lead to disappointment.

Qin Yue was a little stunned. He hesitated and said, "So, what you mean is that you don't care about my brother, but you don't care much about my affairs?"

"Yes," Gu Qinghuan nodded, "I don't want you to misunderstand."

Qin Yue fell silent, and didn't speak until the class bell rang.

This scared Jiang Chuchu. Did Gu Qinghuan's words cause Qin Yue psychological trauma?

I thought I had a good friend who cared more about me than my brother, but it turned out to be not the case at all. In fact, I didn't care much about him...

Wow, Jiang Chuchu put herself in the other's shoes and felt a little sad.

After finally getting through the first English class, Jiang Chuchu didn't even bother with the monthly English test paper that was handed out.

However, just when she was about to discuss Qin Yue's matter with Gu Qinghuan, Qin Yue actually grabbed Gu Qinghuan first.

"I've thought about it!" Qin Yue's eyes were sparkling, "You and I really don't have such a good relationship!"

Jiang Chuchu: ...What is he talking about?

"We've only known each other for a month at most, and you mainly hang out with Chuchu, Yu Xin and the others. I don't play with you that much. To be honest, I have a better relationship with Chuchu." Qin Yue said.

Gu Qinghuan nodded: "Yes, I think you and I should get along well, but we are not yet at the level where we can be confidants in each other."

"You didn't do anything wrong. Rather, you carefully read my Moments and even sent me photos of delicious food. That's pretty good." Qin Yue continued.

Jiang Chuchu: Wait a minute, what are the food photos sent specifically to Qin Yue?

"But this is not my biggest misunderstanding! You don't care about me, so you don't pay attention to my family, then it's the other way around! I always thought my brother stole my friends' attention from me - that's not the case!" Qin Yue said very hard.

"It is precisely because everyone is familiar with me and cares about my situation that when someone they don't know appears around me, they will ask about him. What they want to know is not 'Qin Min', but 'Qin Yue's brother'!"

A brilliant and relieved smile appeared on Qin Yue's face: "I have been entangled in this kind of thing for so many years, I am so stupid!"

Gu Qinghuan nodded in agreement: "That's right, whether it's stealing attention or not, when there are strangers around, people will always ask!"

To put it bluntly, Qin Yue had a preconceived notion and felt inferior to his brother, so he thought that when others asked about his brother, they were more interested in him and didn't care about him anymore.

Qin Yue laughed for a while, and Gu Qinghuan felt that he was a little crazy.

He suddenly stared at her again and accused her viciously: "But you're going too far! We've been playing for so long, can't you pay more attention to me?"

"Ah..." Gu Qinghuan bared her teeth in disdain, "No, you did better than me in the English test this time."

What kind of excuse is that! Qin Yue was so angry that he grinned at her: "Oh, you got such a simple question wrong~"

Veins popped up on Gu Qinghuan's forehead. Damn, this tone is so offensive!

Isn't it just two points? The difference of one multiple-choice question, she will win it back next time!

She was thinking about how to fight back when someone suddenly grabbed her shoulder. When she turned around, she was met with Jiang Chuchu's smiling face.

"Qinghuan, is there something you want to explain to me?" Jiang Chuchu smiled.

"Ah?" Gu Qinghuan felt her arms were a little cold, so cold that she seemed to have goose bumps.

"What are those food photos Qin Yue was talking about just now?" Jiang Chuchu kept smiling.

"Uh, these are photos of us going out for food and shopping during the National Day. I sent them to Qin Yue because I wanted to tempt him..." Gu Qinghuan explained while shrinking his neck.

"Why don't you send it to me?" Jiang Chuchu said.

"It's not something rare..."

“Why don’t you send it to me?”

"……I was wrong."

The outcome of the missed photo incident was that Gu Qinghuan vowed to send all the high-definition original photos to the three-person group chat as soon as he got home and connected to WiFi, without missing a single one.
