After Filming a WLW Movie With My Straight Girl Crush 84

Chapter 84: What-If Storyline 2

After returning home, Xu Ling immediately started to make a plan, putting all the places she found unique and fun into her notes.

But after passionately listing them, she found that there were too many. A day was not enough to visit them all. She hesitated for a long time, then took a screenshot and sent it to An: [See if there’s anything you want to do here.]

She also sent a cat emoji.

An: [So cute.]

Huh? Who was cute? Me? Oh, she must be talking about the cat. You scared me, you scared me.

An: [They all seem very interesting, but we can’t see them all in one day, right?]

An: [But I happen to be in London for a week.]

Xu Ling was dazed. Was this a hint that she wanted her to accompany her for a week?

If it were really a week, she was afraid that even her underwear would be tricked away.

But actually, it didn’t seem so bad.

“Yanzi!” Xu Ling heard Li Yan come out of the bathroom and ran over to ask, “Did you see that beautiful woman sitting next to me at the bar?”

“Mhm.” Li Yan was unusually cold, but at this moment, Xu Ling didn’t notice this abnormality at all.

“Do you think she’s a scammer?”

“Why do you ask that?”

“She’s too beautiful, and she even took the initiative to talk to me. Does she think I’m easy to trick?” Xu Ling was suspicious. “And we ran into each other this morning. Could she have been following me since then?”

“It’s possible.” Li Yan walked to the sofa and sat down, drying her hair. “You should be careful.”

It was over.

If even Yanzi said so, then there was definitely a problem. Yanzi was a senior who had been in London for two years before her. She might have heard of this kind of scam targeting international students.

“By the way,” Li Yan said, “what should we eat for my last meal before graduation?”

Xu Ling’s thoughts, which had been racing towards An, finally returned at this topic. Yanzi was graduating and going to Germany. She wouldn’t be able to eat her desserts anymore.

Xu Ling said, “I’ll book a Michelin restaurant. Let’s ask Meng Bai and Naoko and the others to come too.”

Li Yan looked around the room. “Let’s just eat at home. There’s not much time left here. And we’ve already eaten at Michelin restaurants.”

Xu Ling hadn’t expected her to have such deep feelings for this apartment. But it was true. She had lived here for a full four years.

“Then let’s have hotpot at home?” Xu Ling thought. “If we have hotpot, I can prepare the ingredients. You can just prepare the soup base.”

“Okay.”

“Then I’ll let Meng Bai and the others know.”

“Actually, I just want to have a meal with my roommate.”

“Ah…” Xu Ling was instantly moved. They had been roommates for two years. Their bond was indeed deeper than with others. “Okay!”

Li Yan smiled and nodded, then heard Xu Ling’s phone vibrate again.

An: [Let’s go to the British Museum first tomorrow, and then decide. Is that okay?]

Xu Ling quickly replied: [Okay! Actually, I’m an art student. I can introduce you to many of the exhibits, even more detailed than a guide, and it’s free!]

After sending it, Xu Ling regretted it. An hadn’t said anything. Why had she been so honest?

Looking at the line of text she had sent, Xu Ling felt as if she were begging to be her tour guide, like a big fool who would even help count the money after being sold.

Xu Ling retracted the message and then replied with two cool words: [Okay.]

Qin Cong’an didn’t understand why the other party had retracted the latter part of the message and sent another cute emoji of Mo Yun. The other side didn’t reply for now.

But after a moment, another message came: [Then remember to wear a pair of comfortable shoes.]

Qin Cong’an’s lips curled up. She replied: [Okay.]

So Ling was an art student. Was modeling a part-time job? What path would she take after graduation? Would she return to the country? Stay in London? Or go to other parts of Europe for further studies?

Qin Cong’an became even more curious. And… what was the relationship between her and the person who had come to find her to go home?

But no matter what the relationship was, Ling had agreed to show her around and had even sent so many options.

The date on the notes showed that it was created tonight. So these options were newly listed by Ling, not from when she had helped others before.

She was looking forward to meeting tomorrow.

The weather was not good the next day. It felt like it could rain at any moment. Qin Cong’an brought an umbrella in her small bag.

She had struggled in front of the mirror for a long time about what to wear and had finally decided on a simple dark gray high-neck tank top and jeans, with a trench coat on top in case it got cold.

Ling had arrived early.

After seeing her, Qin Cong’an quickly walked over and, standing next to her, looked up at her slightly. “You’re so tall.”

You’re so sexy… how can this high-neck be so sexy!!!

When Xu Ling saw An walk towards her, her whole body froze. Her trench coat was also just right, very elegant as she walked over. An was probably close to 170cm, with good proportions.

Xu Ling was dressed very conservatively today, a blue long-sleeved shirt and a skirt, not as distinctive as yesterday. This was intentional. She didn’t want to show too much, didn’t want to be touched by her. If she were accidentally touched, she couldn’t imagine if she would voluntarily sell herself.

The two of them were actually wearing the same Adidas sneakers, just one black and one white.

“What a coincidence,” Qin Cong’an said.

“Haha, yeah.” Xu Ling thought to herself, she’s figured out my preferences after just two meetings and is wearing the same style as me. Such strong insight, such a scheming woman!

But what if it really was fate?

What if love had really come?

Aahhh, her mouth is so beautiful. How can it look so kissable, aahhh, aahhh, aahhh—

“Should we go in? By the way, I didn’t make a reservation.”

“It’s fine. We’ll go in through the back door,” Xu Ling said, acting calm, and walked towards the back door.

Xu Ling saw An walking beside her out of the corner of her eye. Mmm, would passersby think they were a couple? Aahhh, aahhh—

“What are you interested in? Do you want to see the foreign exhibits or the Chinese ones?”

“I want to see both,” Qin Cong’an replied. “Will it take a long time to see them all?”

“At least three hours. But some of the galleries might not be open. We’ll have to try our luck.”

Qin Cong’an looked at her. “It’s so great to have met you. Good thing you’re showing me around. Tonight, I’ll treat you to—”

“Watch out!” Xu Ling grabbed An’s arm. Although she hadn’t turned her head to look at her, she had been paying attention to her. She hadn’t been looking at the road, and there was a barrier in front.

Qin Cong’an grabbed Ling’s wrist, said thank you, and didn’t let go as they walked around the barrier.

Xu Ling twisted her wrist and awkwardly pulled her hand back.

The conversation was interrupted by this little episode. It wasn’t until they were inside the museum that they started to chat again.

The arrangement of the exhibits in the museum was actually a little illogical. Xu Ling used a more logical way to explain them to An. She was a little afraid to look at An’s eyes. As soon as she did, she felt her train of thought would be interrupted.

She didn’t want An to think she couldn’t even speak clearly.

But was An listening seriously? Could it be that she had talked so much, and this scammer An was just thinking, it’s just a formality, and you’re actually explaining it?

There were many people in the museum, and they could only stop briefly in front of many of the exhibits. But Xu Ling’s explanation was not at all vague.

“You’re amazing. You know everything.” Qin Cong’an felt that she must be a very serious student with a solid foundation in art. Her explanations were also detailed and easy to understand.

“…” Here we go again. I won’t be fooled by your light praise.

While they were walking around, they ran into many Asian faces. Xu Ling noticed that some of them would take out their phones to take pictures of An, and An seemed to be used to it, not even looking at them.

It was understandable to like to look at beautiful women, but wasn’t it a little too rude? It was one thing to take pictures secretly, but how could they just shove their cameras in her face?

Xu Ling was a little uncomfortable. “Let’s go over there. There are fewer people.”

“Okay, I’ll follow your lead,” Qin Cong’an said. “But I feel like I need to go to the restroom.”

“Then let’s go out,” Xu Ling said with a sigh of relief. “The restrooms in the museum are very crowded. We’ll have to wait in a long line. Let’s find a shop outside.”

Of course, Qin Cong’an was obedient and followed her out. She wanted to say something like, “It’s so great to have you,” again, but for some reason, she felt that every time she praised her, her reaction wasn’t very good.

Was Ling not used to receiving compliments? It didn’t seem like it. It was more likely that she wasn’t good at praising people. Could it be that she was too stiff?

As soon as they left the museum, they found that it had started to rain outside, a dense, fine rain.

“I brought an umbrella,” Qin Cong’an said as she took it out of her bag. “Which way?”

Xu Ling was a little unable to answer this question. Her mind was filled with the rain and the umbrella.

Actually, Xu Ling was already used to London’s crappy weather. She wouldn’t even consider using an umbrella for this kind of light rain, nor would she carry one with her.

But this seemed to be an opportunity to get closer to An.

Wait, what was with this opportunity? When had she taken the initiative to want to get so close to her?

Seeing that An had already opened the umbrella, and both the person and the umbrella were leaning over, the umbrella, which didn’t seem suitable for two people, tilted a little towards Xu Ling.

“No, no…” Xu Ling quickly dodged to the side. “I don’t need it. You can use it. It’s just over there.”

As Xu Ling spoke, she had already started to walk towards the bookstore she wanted to go to, her steps a little rushed.

But after walking for a while, she saw that An didn’t seem to be following. She looked back and saw An almost bump directly into her.

Qin Cong’an had run over and almost hadn’t been able to stop. But even if she had, she was still a little unsteady. It was only after being supported by Ling’s arm that she stood firm.

“Don’t walk so fast.”

“Sorry,” Xu Ling apologized, a little flustered.

“Let’s just go under the umbrella together.” Qin Cong’an moved the umbrella a little closer and then linked her arm with Ling’s.

Xu Ling instantly felt something and froze, her arm hanging straight down, as if wanting to pierce through the center of the earth. She had said it. How could a high-neck tank top be sexy? It turned out that the sexy one was her.

Shady! So shady!

How could An be so intimate with someone she had only known for two days? Although it was to avoid the rain, but, but… Xu Ling swallowed, just glad that she had worn long sleeves today. Otherwise, if she had been pressed against her like this, would she still have any rationality! She didn’t have much to begin with!

“What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?” Qin Cong’an turned her head to look at her and asked, “You feel a little hot.”

“H-how could I?” Xu Ling laughed dryly. “I just have a naturally high body temperature.”

“Is that so? I seem to be naturally a little cold,” Qin Cong’an said, and then the back of her other hand leaned over and touched the hand of the arm she was holding.
