What are you doing, Mr. President? I'm just an extra!

In front of the art building.

Today, this place has been decorated like the Oscars ceremony venue.

The red carpet stretched from the main entrance all the way to the center of the square.

Both sides were filled with various flower baskets, with banners on them bearing cheesy love quotes.

Wishing Wei Lan's art exhibition a complete success!

"Wei Lan, you are my muse!"

There were even a few dwarfs wearing angel wings, sawing wood while playing violins.

This tacky yet luxurious aesthetic is really edgy.

In the very center of the square, there was a flashy pink Lamborghini.

On the hood of the car, a huge heart shape was arranged.

There were a total of 999 red roses.

"vomit--"

Lu Li mentally gagged.

This taste is absolutely amazing.

This might have fooled naive young girls twenty years ago.

These days, this kind of extravagant declaration of love is practically a social disaster, okay?

However, the girls around them were screaming.

"Oh my god! How romantic!"

"How much do all these roses cost?"

"If someone confessed their love to me like that, I'd marry them on the spot!"

Lu Li shook his head.

Indeed, the filter of money is powerful.

With enough money, even the most tacky behavior can be interpreted as romantic.

"Hmph, how tacky."

Shen Weilan pouted in disgust, but tightened her grip on Lu Li's hand.

"Brother Lu, if that pervert comes over later, you have to protect me, okay?"

Lu Li patted the back of her hand.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

The two were about to walk inside.

Suddenly, a group of bodyguards dressed in black suits and wearing sunglasses surrounded them.

They blocked their way.

"Is this the dog that Young Master Zhao hired?"

Lu Li raised an eyebrow.

The crowd automatically separated.

A man wearing a white suit, with slicked-back hair, and holding a large bouquet of roses walked out.

It was Zhao Tai.

He was actually fairly good-looking, but the puffy bags under his eyes clearly indicated excessive indulgence.

Zhao Tai didn't even glance at Lu Li; his gaze was fixed on Shen Weilan.

Especially when he saw those beautiful legs in white stockings, the greed in his eyes was almost overflowing.

"A gentle ripple!"

Zhao Tai strode over, a smile he thought was charming plastered on his face.

"You've finally arrived."

"I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Look, this is something I prepared especially for you."

Do you like it?

As he spoke, he was about to kneel down on one knee and hand the bouquet of flowers to Shen Weilan.

The students watching nearby gasped in surprise.

Some girls even covered their mouths, looking deeply moved.

After all, such a scene of throwing money around can be quite impactful for young, inexperienced female college students.

However, Shen Weilan didn't even glance at the flower.

She took a step back, pressing her body tightly against Lu Li.

"Zhao Tai, if you're sick, go get treatment."

"I already made myself very clear last time."

I have a boyfriend.

"And I love him very much."

As she spoke, she stood on her tiptoes in front of everyone.

He gave Lu Li a big kiss on the cheek.

"Trojan horse!"

The sound was crisp and clear.

Zhao Tai's smile froze for a moment.

But he didn't give up, and continued:

"Wei Lan, I know you're still angry with me."

"I was wrong last time; I shouldn't have been so impatient."

"But I mean it!"

"I've been preparing for this confession for a month!"

"If you agree to be my girlfriend, this Lamborghini is yours!"

He pointed to the pink sports car behind him.

Another gasp rippled through the crowd.

He took another step forward, trying to grab Shen Weilan's hand.

"Wei Lan, give me a chance..."

"Snapped!"

One hand firmly grasped Zhao Tai's wrist.

It's Lu Li.

"Young Master Zhao, is that right?"

"Staying so openly and brazenly stealing someone else's boyfriend right in front of him."

"Isn't that a bit impolite?"

Zhao Tai was stunned, and only then did he look at Lu Li properly.

He had been explaining it to himself in his mind.

He was just Shen Weilan's follower; Coincidence; Just a cheek kiss.

Now the attempt to cover it up has finally failed.

"Boy friend?"

Zhao Tai shook off Lu Li's hand and looked him up and down.

"Just because you're a pretty boy?"

Do you know who I am?

Do you know who my father is?

"You think you're worthy to compete with me for a woman?"

Lu Li shrugged.

He pulled Shen Weilan into his arms and pinched her slender waist.

"Do you know who his dad is, my little piggy?"

Shen Weilan rested her head on Lu Li's chest very cooperatively, with a sweet look on her face.

"I don't know."

All I know is that you're more handsome than him, you're taller than him, and... you're really good.

When she said the word "amazing," she emphasized it and glanced at Zhao Tai again.

"Unlike him, he looks incredibly weak."

That one glance.

It is not very harmful and extremely insulting.

As a man, this is the greatest shame!

Especially in front of so many people, to be humiliated like this by the woman he likes.

Zhao Tai was so angry that he was trembling all over. He pointed his finger at Lu Li's nose.

"good!"

"very good!"

"Pretty boy, huh?"

"I'd like to see what skills you have besides that face!"

Zhao Tai suppressed the urge to call his bodyguards to beat someone up; that would be too undignified.

"Since you are Wei Lan's boyfriend..."

"Then you must know a little about art, right?"

Zhao Tai sneered and snapped his fingers.

Several men carried up a white Steinway grand piano.

"Wei Lan studied painting, and I studied music."

"We are a match made in heaven."

"Today, I'll have a talent competition with you!"

Zhao Tai walked up to the piano and looked at Lu Li provocatively.

"Let's have a piano-playing competition!"

"Whoever loses has to kneel down and kowtow three times, then get out of Jianghai University and never see Weilan again in this lifetime!"

"How is it?"

"Dare you?"

The surrounding students erupted in uproar.

"Holy crap! A piano competition?"

"That's not fair! Young Master Zhao has passed the highest level of piano proficiency and even won a provincial award!"

"That's right, this is clearly bullying."

"That kid is obviously all show and no substance. Besides his good looks, he probably doesn't even know how to read sheet music."

"This is terrible, I'm going to be so embarrassed."

Hearing the surrounding chatter, Zhao Tai's smug expression grew even stronger.

He did it on purpose.

He wanted to humiliate this pretty boy in front of everyone.

Let Shen Weilan see who the true chosen one of heaven is, and who is worthy of her!
