Jiang Linyuan felt that one saying was very well put—poets' souls are often lonely.
Xiao Su and the Departnt Head couldn't understand his romance; that was normal, understandable.
He stood between the two of them, silently watching the confession scene.
Seeing that the girl wouldn't agree, the boy shouted again at the top of his lungs:
"Yi Yi, be with ! From now on, if you shed a single tear, I'll raze an entire city!"
Jiang Linyuan ruthlessly critiqued without holding back:
"Don't you guys think his lines are super cringey? He's literally reciting copy-pasted garbage he found online!"
He paused, flashing a smug grin:
"If it were , I'd definitely say sothing like, 'From now on, if you take a single shit, I'll bring you a pack of tissues.'"
Su Muzhi didn't want to look at him anymore, leaving him only the back of her head.
Shen Wanyu let out a sigh and moved a bit farther away from him.
The people around who'd been cheering shot Jiang Linyuan a weird look.
What kind of strange creature was this?
The girl being confessed to just stood there, painfully embarrassed as she faced the boy. Being publicly confessed to was already awkward enough, and now he had to recite lines so cringey they made your toes curl.
She mustered up her courage and shouted loudly:
"I'm sorry, I don't want to be with you!"
This ti, her voice was loud enough that even Jiang Linyuan, standing at the outermost edge, could hear it clearly.
But the people cheering seed to act as if they hadn't heard her at all. Their shouts grew even louder, as if deliberately trying to drown out the girl's refusal.
"Get together! You've gotta get together!!"
"Say yes! Say yes!"
The boy confessing felt a surge of joy inside. For today, he'd hired a few people to deliberately stir up the crowd.
Yi Yi had a thin skin. The refusal she'd just mustered had probably exhausted all her courage. From here on out, as long as he pushed forward while she half-heartedly resisted, the job would be done!
Seeing this, Su Muzhi shot Shen Wanyu a provocative smile:
"How romantic, hehe."
Shen Wanyu pressed her hand to her forehead, letting out a very helpless sigh:
"What a downer. Having to run into sothing like this."
Su Muzhi looked at Jiang Linyuan with interest:
"Jiang-classmate, aren't you going to do sothing? If you stepped up for that girl right now, you'd rack up quite a bit of goodwill."
Xiao Su was scheming again!
But first, let's check her level.
[Target: Bai Yi, Bad Woman Level: D]
D level, huh. Not worth getting involved.
Wasn't there any other righteous hero in the crowd?! Step up! I'll back you up!
"So disgusting."
The righteous hero appeared!
But wait—why did that voice sound exactly like the Departnt Head's?
Jiang Linyuan turned his head. Shen Wanyu pushed through the crowd, walking straight up to the boy making the confession:
"She rejected you. Did you not hear her?"
"Hehe, I knew it."
Su Muzhi let out a faint smile, looking at Jiang Linyuan:
"This is a good opportunity, Jiang-classmate."
Was this whole scene Xiao Su's doing?
Jiang Linyuan sucked in a cold breath and looked at Su Muzhi.
"Don't look at
like that. I'm not like Shen Wanyu—I'm not the type who likes to casually pick at people's wounds."
Su Muzhi lounged lazily in her folding chair, looking perfectly at ease, like she was just enjoying a show.
The boy who'd been confessing stared at Shen Wanyu, who'd suddenly appeared, stunned for a mont.
Who the hell was this?
"That's right! Yi Yi already rejected you! What are you still doing!?"
Just then, another girl's voice rang out. A petite young woman glared angrily at the boy.
Seeing her, Bai Yi hurried over and grabbed her hand, looking like she'd finally been saved:
"Xiao Xiao, you're finally here."
The two seed to be close friends.
Another righteous hero who showed up late?
Jiang Linyuan raised an eyebrow, looking at the newly arrived girl.
[Target: Zhang Xiaoxiao, Bad Woman Level: B.]
Oh?
A D level and a B level were friends?
"Interesting."
Su Muzhi sat up straight, sizing up the newly arrived Zhang Xiaoxiao.
Zhang Xiaoxiao glared at the boy, frowning as she shouted:
"Gu Ming! Are you bullying Yi Yi?! She just rejected you!"
Gu Ming looked around, signaling to the few people he'd hired, trying to get them to say sothing.
But unfortunately, while there were plenty of people cheering, most of them were just random bystanders drawn into the commotion. Only two or three of the loudest were actually hired by him.
And they weren't stupid. Seeing this scene unfold, they imdiately vanished into the crowd.
After all, they'd already gotten paid.
Seeing them bail, Gu Ming's mouth twitched.
Damn it, these guys!
"If the girl rejected you, she rejected you, bro. Don't take it too hard!"
"What are you talking about? Weren't you just cheering him on a second ago?"
"Weren't you? Everyone's just here for the fun of it. What's the big deal?"
The crowd was a bit noisy for a mont, but no serious argunt broke out. Soon enough, they dispersed, each person finding a spot to wait for the sunrise.
"So disgusting."
Shen Wanyu closed her eyes and said it again.
But this ti, it wasn't clear who she was talking about.
"Gu Ming, if you do this again, don't even think about inviting Yi Yi out anymore!"
Zhang Xiaoxiao spoke with a serious expression.
Beside her, Bai Yi seed about to say sothing, but Zhang Xiaoxiao cut her off firmly:
"Yi Yi, Gu Ming is just that kind of idiot. Don't take it to heart."
Having said that, she turned back to Gu Ming and continued:
"If you don't sincerely apologize to Yi Yi this ti, she's definitely not going to forgive you!"
Bai Yi hesitated, her expression sour, and just gave a quiet "Mm."
Jiang Linyuan watched, an intrigued expression on his face.
No wonder she was B level. With just one sentence, she'd snatched away soone else's right to speak.
"So disgusting."
Su Muzhi, who'd been watching the show, said with a smile, then looked at Jiang Linyuan:
"But it's fun, isn't it?"
Jiang Linyuan ignored her and instead stared at Zhang Xiaoxiao. Should he swipe this B card or not?
Honestly, he felt a kind of visceral disgust toward this Zhang Xiaoxiao.
He wasn't particularly keen on swiping her.
"Forgive? You're actually going to forgive him?"
Shen Wanyu turned to look at Bai Yi, who had been silently standing there, and asked in confusion.
Bai Yi was just about to speak, but Zhang Xiaoxiao imdiately cut in:
"And who are you? Don't try to ruin our friendship!"
Shen Wanyu turned to Zhang Xiaoxiao, speaking without rcy:
"So disgusting."
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoxiao's eyebrows shot up:
"What do you an by that?"
Gu Ming, sensing that his future relationship with Bai Yi would depend on Zhang Xiaoxiao, glared at Shen Wanyu with displeasure:
"What's your problem?! You just love sticking your nose where it doesn't belong, don't you!"
"What the hell are you barking about? Feeling pretty proud of yourself for forcing soone into accepting your confession, huh? Your brain's as loose as your asshole—can't even hold in your own shit, can you?"
Jiang Linyuan stepped forward. He'd been annoyed by Gu Ming's type for a long ti, and this was a perfect chance to earn so goodwill with the Departnt Head.
"And where the hell did you co from, you lick dog? A boiling lamb, is that it?!"
Zhang Xiaoxiao glared at him.
You think you can talk about her without
saying anything?!
Jiang Linyuan turned around, ready to unleash a torrent of abuse, only to find Shen Wanyu had stepped in front of Zhang Xiaoxiao.
"Bam!"
A clean, crisp gut punch.
Shen Wanyu withdrew her hand, looking down at Zhang Xiaoxiao, who was clutching her stomach, and said calmly:
"So disgusting."
