"Hmm." Jiang Jihe said nonchalantly, "So what's wrong?"

"Are you going out with your sister to celebrate Valentine's Day?"

Jiang Jihe just sent a message to Wen Zhining: [I've finished showering, Ningning. Call me on video when you have time. I'll teach you if you don't know how to use the computer.]

Upon hearing this, he simply continued texting: "[How about I take you to eat the new fried rice noodles near school after class tomorrow?]"

Then she replied, "Is there a problem? I even bought flowers for Ningning."

Rong Jingshuo turned to look at him. "Old Jiang, I heard from Brother Sheng that you gave him the idea to take away the phone of the person who asked his sister out, so that he wouldn't be able to contact his sister."

"You broke them up, and then went to find your sister? You even sent her flowers?"

"You told us before that you would break up with Yue Baiqing until graduation, but you haven't graduated yet."

"She harmed Ningning." Jiang Jihe's face turned cold.

"So the reason you broke this rule is because you've fallen for Wen Zhining, right?"

"Did I notice you've been wearing this pink hair tie all this time? I tried to touch it, but you always told me to move away."

"People who don't usually watch videos are now spending all their time waiting for people they follow to post updates, and they're the first to like their posts on WeChat Moments."

"Every night, whether I'm free or not, I make time to pick up my younger sister from her evening self-study session."

"In order to travel with your sister, you applied to advance the exams that you usually don't care about, and patiently went to the teachers one by one to discuss and get approval."

"You hugged your sister in front of Yue Baiqing, who was your girlfriend at the time."

"You were distracted the whole time you were arguing with Yue Baiqing, even Peng Ge noticed."

"I was a bit despicable." Wen Zhining didn't reply to him, and Jiang Jihe lowered his head to scroll through her videos, his voice still gentle.

Because they were talking about Wen Zhining.

"But the process isn't important; the key is who wins Ningning's favor and love."

"And clearly, I beat him today."

Jiang Jihe turned to look at him, a smug and frank smile playing on his lips.

Seeing it on his face, no one would get angry, forgive him, or even feel that it was their own problem.

No wonder Wen Yue refused to acknowledge her face; every expression and movement was so alluring.

"When did you realize you liked her?" Rong Jingshuo asked.

Jiang Jihe opened his mouth.

Just then, Wen Zhining called.

Jiang Jihe answered the call quickly, without even realizing that the corners of his lips had naturally curved upwards.

I feel this way every time I see Wen Zhining.

"Ningning."

"I'm sorry, brother," Wen Zhining apologized to him, "I have something to do, so I can't video chat with you tonight."

"I'll ask my brother about the computer problem tomorrow."

"I'll talk to you later." Wen Zhining said anxiously and hung up the phone.

Before the call ended, Jiang Jihe heard her roommate say something to her on the other end:

"Ningning, are you going out?"

He immediately dialed Wen Yuesheng's number.

"What are you doing?" Wen Yuesheng asked.

"Did you let Yue Ningning go?" Jiang Jihe asked bluntly.

"I had a meal with him and found he was pretty good. I thought things weren't like before. Ningning is in college now, and I'm not old-fashioned anymore. Not long ago, I gave him my phone and let him go."

"Whether he can get Ningning's forgiveness or not, I don't know. Anyway, I won't tell Ningning that I did it."

Jiang Jihe left the dormitory.

Rong Jingshuo glanced at it.

Someone got anxious.

My emotions were definitely different when it came to my sister.

School gate.

The old lady was still setting up her stall when Wen Zhining came out and saw him preparing to buy a bunch.

Wen Zhining called out to him, "Have you been waiting long?"

The tutor she mentioned, who was the top student in the school, turned to look at her.

He quickly bought a bouquet of flowers, paid for them, walked up to her, and began to explain.

"Ningning." A man appeared behind Wen Zhining and called her affectionately.

Then he stood beside her, tall and slender, with stunningly beautiful features that exuded captivating charm. He curved his lips slightly as he looked at the person opposite him, but his eyes remained indifferent.

His breathing was a little unsteady, as if he had rushed over.

"Ningning," Jiang Jihe said, "who is this?"

The person on the other end of the line had no idea what he was pretending to be unfamiliar with.

I clearly saw him before, after he came out of the tutoring center.

"Brother, have you forgotten? This is my tutoring classmate. You've met him before. I sometimes eat at his house. His aunt's cooking is delicious."

Jiang Jihe's face showed a look of sudden realization. "Oh, it's him."

"I see so many classmates that I'm not very familiar with every day, so I don't really remember them."

He took one of Wen Zhining's fingers in his hand and stroked it. Wen Zhining glanced at him but did not pull away.

"Brother, what brings you here?"

"I just sent Ningning two bouquets of flowers to wish her a happy 520. I saw that Ningning was very happy, so I thought I would pack all the flowers when I got back and send them to Ningning's dormitory."

Jiang Jihe glanced past the flowers in the hands of the person opposite him and looked at the old lady behind him who had stopped selling flowers to watch the commotion.

"Grandma, please wrap up all these flowers for me."

The old lady nodded quickly, beaming from ear to ear, and began to think about what price to set.

When she got home, she told the old man who sold pancakes that she had not only witnessed a love triangle, but had also met someone with a lot of money.

"I heard Ningning ran into someone who stood her up today. Could it have been you?" Jiang Jihe asked with a smile.

"Are you here to apologize to Ningning? Maybe I should leave now?"

"It's okay, I only spent the afternoon with Ningning. If Ningning wants to play with him, she can go ahead. I'll take the flowers back to my dorm first; my legs hurt a bit and I can't stand for that long."

Upon hearing this, Wen Zhining, who had been confused, became very anxious, "Brother, what happened to your leg?"

The study partner, holding flowers, opened his mouth as if to say to Jiang Jihe, "Then hurry up and go."

But Jiang Jihe didn't move an inch while saying this.

The old lady seemed to have received money as well, as she collected the flowers very slowly.

"Ningning," her study partner called out, "I want to explain what happened this afternoon. I didn't mean to stand you up."

"Wouldn't that be intentional?" Jiang Jihe said.

"Never mind, I don't know what you're thinking, Ningning, I'm leaving now," Jiang Jihe said.

Study partner: "..."

Then why don't you just leave?

He thought through gritted teeth.

The first time I met this person, he was sitting in the car, exuding a noble yet gentle aura.

Now she seems more like a green tea b*tch.

Jiang Jihe had only taken a few steps toward the old lady, his back to Wen Zhining, when he bent down and touched his feet in front of the old lady's meaningful gaze.

A hiss, a sound filled with pain, reached Wen Zhining's ears.

Seeing his condition, Wen Zhining quickly left his companion, walked past him, and went to stand in front of Jiang Jihe.

"Brother, are you alright?"

"It's okay." Jiang Jihe stood up straight with determination. "I'll leave after I get the flowers."

His companion realized he was doing it on purpose and asked, "So, you were the one who orchestrated today's events, weren't you?"

"Ningning, I wanted to come find you, but I was stopped as soon as I got to your school and they took my phone away."

The man wanted to tell Wen Zhining that it was her brother who did it, but he knew her brother and didn't want to offend Wen Yuesheng because of this.

He had liked Wen Zhining for a long time, and only after repeatedly assuring Wen Yuesheng did he get his phone back and immediately came to find Wen Zhining.

"Someone doesn't want us to meet." His companion looked at Jiang Jihe, his hostility clear.
