The Heartthrob Became My Boyfriend

The ringtone of the cellphone was still sounding incessantly.

Qi Yue pinched the bridge of her nose and answered the call with an expressionless face.

"Hello."

"Hello! Yueyue! You finally picked up the phone! What are you busy with every day? Why aren't you even answering Mom's calls?"

"Preparing my graduation thesis, conducting experiments."

"What experiments! Isn't it just raising pigs and planting potatoes every day! With the high scores you got back then, you could have chosen any major at A University, yet you insisted on choosing this farming major. I think your Second Uncle is the one who led you astray in the countryside..."

Qi Yue frowned slightly and cut off her mother's words, "Mom, did you call me for something?"

"It's about the arranged date I mentioned to you last time, how have you considered it? Yueyue, Mom is just looking out for you. Being a girl and studying this major, it really ruins your life. Even if you come back now and pick up shooting under your dad, it's still better than raising pigs and planting potatoes every day! And..."

Hearing this, Qi Yue's voice turned chilly, "Mom, I've said before, I will never touch shooting again for the rest of my life. That should be what you want to see, right? In case it agitates Qi Zhen again and puts too much pressure on her, will you have me give up once again?"

On the other end of the phone, the woman finally fell silent.

After a long pause, the woman finally spoke: "It was Mom who wronged you back then... but at that time... Mom had no choice... With Zhenzhen in that state... I couldn't just ignore her..."

Qi Yue chuckled, "So, you sacrificed me?"

She could understand; she couldn't compare to Qi Zhen, who had always been closer to them.

But she was also their daughter.

"Yueyue, can't you understand Mom? Given the situation back then, if something had happened to your sister, would you have been able to live with yourself? Besides, it's been so long, we're all family, who bears grudges?"

The woman on the other side of the phone was getting a bit agitated, then she softened her tone, "Yueyue, you are also Mom's daughter, how could I not care about you? Mom asked relatives to arrange a blind date for you. The young man comes from a decent family; he earns five to six thousand a month by himself. You could get married right after you graduate!

Listen to Mom, you unfortunately can't compare to Zhenzhen now. Being a girl, you don't know much, and you study such a major. How will you live in the future? It might be better to marry into a good family after you graduate, otherwise, are you really planning to go back to the countryside to farm..."

Qi Yue's voice was devoid of emotion, "Mom, I've told you, I really like my current major. Also, don't call me again in the future, in case Qi Zhen finds out and gets angry again."

Giving up shooting would be enough to repay them for bringing her into this world.

But she couldn't let them arrange her life for a second time, nor could she give up her dreams for them.

The woman on the other end sounded somewhat embarrassed, "It's okay, she's been really busy lately, seems like she's getting on some variety show, rarely comes home..."

Humph, her biological mother had to be careful about making a call to her...

Qi Yue didn't want to continue talking with her and abruptly hung up the phone.

"Yue Bao, are you okay..."

Song Qiuqiu looked concerned beside her, yet unsure how to comfort her.

Every time Qi Yue finished talking to her family on the phone, her mood was particularly bad.

She still preferred seeing her happy and planting potatoes...

Qi Yue took a deep breath, "I'm fine."

Song Qiuqiu angrily said, "I can't stand listening to this! What do you mean you can't compare with Zhenzhen? If you had continued shooting back then, you would have easily racked up championships by now! As for Qi Zhen, she hasn't even managed to win that championship medal dad always yearned for, and now she's all set on squeezing into the entertainment industry!

You are the only disciple of Professor He from the Agricultural Science Institute and received multiple top-notch job offers even before graduation. Do they need to worry about how you'll live? Do they really think you just plant potatoes?"

Qi Yue felt a warm touch in her heart, soothing Song Qiuqiu, "Alright, alright! Why are you getting angrier than I am? As long as I'm living a good life, I don't need to care about irrelevant people."

She didn't care what Qi Zhen was like.

That life had nothing to do with her anymore.
