The moment the word "flyer" was spoken, Jiang Xueli was like a startled kitten.
She stammered, "Huh? What flyer?! Oh..." She forced an awkward grin and looked away. "You mean the flyer? That was actually just something I picked up off the street..."
Her gaze drifted to some of her fellow singers chatting in the distance. Some of them looked her way, giving her a little wave or covering their mouths to giggle.
It was the kind of look you'd see in school when people were trying to play matchmaker for a couple, silently cheering them on.
Jiang Xueli turned to Lin Zhengran and, mustering her courage, said, "I'll ask you a question first. After you answer, I'll tell you!"
Lin Zhengran eyed her.
Her lips trembled as she struggled to speak. "You big dummy... to you, am I an important person? Or, in your heart, am I just a childhood friend? Would you even be sad for long if you couldn't see me one day?"
