Chapter 2325 - 740: It’s Me, Su Yu

Tang Song had never directly said he liked her; she knew her place in the senior’s heart wasn’t that important, maybe she was just a compatible lover or fling.

But she didn’t expect him to be so attentive, to care so much about her little wishes.

This feeling of being cherished was more heartwarming than the luxury car itself.

"Oh no! The game isn’t over yet!" Lingling suddenly remembered and hurriedly picked up her phone.

However, the phone had already sounded Victory’s winning sound effect.

The opponent’s crystal had already been silently pushed away by Gongsun Li.

Back in the room, "Su Yu’s April" had already logged out, the avatar turned gray.

But now, no one had the heart to pay attention to that.

Zhang Jiahong and Li Shumin, like two excited little birds, surrounded Lingling, chattering away about the car pickup arrangements for the afternoon; the room was filled with laughter.

Qiuqiu sat there dazed, watching Lingling’s flushed face, listening to their discussion about the "Mercedes CLS," "Senior Tang Song," and pursed her lips tightly.

So... Lingling and Tang Song... have that kind of relationship too?

He even specially gifted her favorite car?

Compared to me... he definitely likes Lingling more, right?

Indeed, Lingling designed the successful He Yi, helping the company make so much money; she’s his capable assistant.

And me?

To him, I’m probably useless, right?

Only causing him trouble, only making him worry, with a cold personality...

I have nothing, I am nothing.

Envy, jealousy, grievances, self-loathing...

All kinds of negative emotions flooded her heart like a tide, completely drowning her.

Above her head, [Dream Flower Seed] began to tremble violently.

...

She didn’t know how long had passed.

A sudden scream from Li Shumin broke Qiuqiu’s self-pity.

"Ahhh! Look, look! Su Yu’s new post has topped the hot searches again!"

Cheng Qiuyu shivered all over, immediately snapped out of the dark emotions.

Turning around, she saw the other three gathered together, heads touching, excitedly staring at the phone screen.

"Damn! The lottery is tomorrow? So soon?"

"I feel that no matter how bad the weather gets, anyone who wins will never give up the chance to go to Paris! That’s a chance to celebrate a birthday with Su Yu!"

"Qiuqiu, look! Su Yu posted new photos! It’s stunning!" Lingling handed over her phone screen.

Qiuqiu quickly leaned over, her eyes instantly fixating on the photo.

It was a lifestyle photo of Su Yu.

She posed playfully with a scissors gesture towards the camera, her smile bright and radiant, exuding a fairy-like charm that lit up the entire frame.

[Su Yu V: "Tomorrow night at 8 PM, we’ll start drawing the ’Birthday Luckfish’! Given the event involves international travel, some lucky fans might not be able to make it to Paris due to visa or other reasons. To make up for this, I’ll be hosting an all-network live broadcast on my birthday, December 25th, to personally announce the ’special fan’s’ name and ID, and @ their account, sending my sincerest thanks. Be sure to wait for me~"]

Looking at the idol’s lively smile and comforting words.

Qiuqiu’s dark jealousy and inferiority were melting away like snow under the sun.

Last time, when she saw the news of Su Yu "suspending all business activities," she was worried to the point of insomnia.

Seeing her so well now, actively preparing for her birthday, it seemed there was no major issue.

She couldn’t help but fantasize.

If... I could be as outstanding and brilliant as Su Yu, how great it would be.

In that case, Tang Song would surely love me especially, right?

I would be the person he cares about most, the one he’s most proud of, right?

"Ah, too bad that ’fake drama queen’ exited the game just now," Li Shumin pouted, still dissatisfied, and snarked: "Su Yu is busy planning her birthday in Paris, how could she have time to play Honor of Kings with us in Yan City? What a drama queen!"

"But come to think of it, I really hope I win! A romantic date with the goddess would be life at its peak!"

"Yeah, absolutely a life’s highlight!"

Lingling also sighed, but then hopelessly slumped onto the sofa: "Ah, rumor has it that millions are participating in the lottery this time! The odds are even lower than winning a five-million lottery! No hope, no hope."

Qiuqiu didn’t echo her.

She merely clasped her hands quietly, gently closed her eyes, like a devout believer, silently praying:

"As long as there’s a chance... what if? What if I’m the lucky one?"

In her heart, Su Yu was no longer just an idol.

She’s an inspiring legend who climbed to the top from despair, a mental pillar whose songs cured countless lonely nights.

If she could meet her, chat with her, wish her a happy birthday...

She felt it would greatly redeem her.

Perhaps the illness that had plagued her for years might also improve faster.

"Okay, okay! Stop daydreaming!" Lingling clapped her hands, breaking the silence, "Let’s watch a variety show; I’ll go cut a luxury fruit platter for everyone!"

"I’ll help."

Qiuqiu quickly stood up and followed her into the kitchen.

This apartment was co-rented by the two of them, as half a host, she naturally wanted to do her part.

In the quiet kitchen, the sound of water flowed noisily.

Lingling looked at Qiuqiu, who was quietly washing the apples, hesitated for a moment, then turned and gently closed the kitchen door.
