Shock! I became the protagonist of a female-oriented novel.

Wow.

Judging from the question asked by the male lead's mother, it's clear that the male lead didn't say a word about the 'announcement of the engagement'.

"Auntie, don't you know?" Yu Ci was taken aback, then put on an acting performance worthy of an Oscar winner, "It was Leng... Brother who brought up the matter of breaking off the engagement."

"What?" Both Mr. and Mrs. Leng looked shocked.

In that instant, Yu Ci saw the male protagonist, who had been sitting calmly, suddenly raise his head and look at him with a very sharp gaze.

That fierce gaze—

Just like a husky, he's not afraid at all!

“It was before.” Yu Ci lowered his head, his shoulders shaking as he shrugged. “It was at the banquet at the Leng family’s house that Brother Leng told me that he already had someone he liked.”

The man sighed deeply, as if he were Lin Daiyu, "Although I like Brother Leng, I like Brother Leng who is single, not Brother Leng who has already fallen for someone else."

I have to thank that romance novel I read before that enabled me to say something so awesome.

"Besides, what Brother Leng said back then was right. Since I like him, I shouldn't force him to do things he doesn't want to do, nor should I interfere with his happiness!"

Seeing the male lead's increasingly dark expression, Yu Ci's performance became even more emotional, "So, Uncle Leng, Aunt Leng, let's cancel the engagement between our two families!"

He sat down, his spirits high, and said firmly.

Mr. Yu seemed to be moved by his daughter's noble words. He coughed twice and raised his hand, "Alright."

"Mr. Leng, Mrs. Leng, Xiao Ci's words have already been stated here."

"We arranged the marriage to fulfill the wishes of the elders and because we saw that the two young people were compatible, but now—"

The man is heartless, and the woman is indifferent.

“We were going to get married, but this will only create resentment, so… let’s cancel the engagement.” Boss Yu tapped the table and put his arm around Yu Ci beside him. “Even if the engagement is dissolved, the relationship between our two families will still be the same.”

"this--"

"Let me ask Leng Xing again." President Leng was unwilling to give up on the Yu family.

Don't even mention him! In the entire city, no matter who it is, no one would let go of the chance to marry into the Yu family, okay?

Yu Zhengguang has only one daughter, no wife, and no plans to get married. So, will the huge Yu Group become part of his dowry?

It's safe to say that whoever marries Yu Ci is essentially marrying into the Yu family. They can effortlessly acquire a listed company like this. Break off the engagement? Did they eat a rocket?

"Cold Star".

"Tell me carefully, is there a girl you like at school?"

All the elders' eyes were on the delicate-looking, effeminate man sitting in the seat. Yu Ci could sense that Leng Xing was a little scared.

However, the protagonist's halo at least made him brave once.

"Yes," Leng Xing said, her neck stiff. "Yu Ci is right. If you don't love each other, you shouldn't be together!"

Since then.

The engagement is now completely over.

After finishing their farewell dinner in the private room, Yu Ci smiled slightly at the two elders and said, "Uncle, Aunt, Dad and I will head back now."

"Xiao Ci, you can go first."

As soon as Yu Ci stepped out of the private room, he heard a slap behind him.

Gee tut.

Brilliant, truly brilliant.

-

In the afternoon, Yu Ci, who was happily going to school, soon received a text message from the male protagonist.

Cold Prince:

Yu Ci, are you out of your mind? Who told you to say that today?

Did you think you could get my attention this way? Let me tell you, you failed!

I wouldn't be interested in a woman like you!

Remainder: ...

Yu Ci: #Just kidding# It looks like I saw your uncle hitting you, Leng Xing, is your face swollen?

Cold Prince:

!!!

Ha ha.

No matter what you do, I will always be someone you can never have.

Don't get your hopes up. I won't give you any attention anymore.

Also, if you cause trouble for Xiao Ai again in the future, don't blame me for not showing any mercy!

Xiao Ai?

We can have a good chat if we don't mention Xiao Ai, but what happens when we do?

Do you deserve it?

In words:

I also want to tell you this: if you harass Xiao Ai again, I'll show you what cruelty is.

Cold Prince:

???

Of course, Yu Ci could no longer see this last reply because he had already blocked Leng Xing.

He's currently replying to messages from the lovely young girl.

Xiao Ai, cheer up! Senior, you seem very happy?

Yu Ci: Yes, a problem has been solved.

Xiao Ai, keep it up! (*?▽?*) What's the problem?

Yu Ci: Tsk, anyway, we've dealt with a self-important guy.

For some reason, Lin Xiaoai thought of her deskmate as soon as she saw the self-important guy's words.

After hanging up the phone last time, she was puzzled about the relationship between her senior and her deskmate, so she went out to inquire about it for a while.

I found out some news.

The senior student's name is Yu Ci, the eldest daughter of the Yu family. Her deskmate's name is Leng Xing, the eldest son of the Leng family. The two families were once engaged.

When Xiao Ai learned that her senior and her trashy deskmate were engaged, she was a little confused.

Since the senior already has a fiancé, why is he still being so nice to her and kissing her?

But after hesitating for a while, she slowly remembered that every time her senior mentioned her trashy deskmate, it seemed to be in a very annoying tone.

So she gradually calmed down and decided to wait until her relationship with her senior was more confirmed before asking Yu Ci about the specifics of the matter.

Then, I saw that the senior student had solved a problem.

Just as she was about to reply, the teacher came over, and she hurriedly put away her phone and sat down.

Leng Xing followed the teacher in.

However... judging from the marks on his face, it seems he's been beaten.

But that has nothing to do with her.

Listening attentively to the lectures, occasionally getting distracted by thoughts of her senior, Lin Xiaoai skillfully treated Leng Xing as if she didn't exist.

Apart from--

When I heard that sentence.

"Xiao Ai, from now on I can protect you openly and honestly!"

"I have dissolved my engagement and can now pursue you legitimately!"

The pen fell onto the table.

Lin Xiaoai suddenly turned around with bright eyes: "What did you say? You broke off the engagement?"

"Yes, yes." Having never been looked at with such intense gaze by her beloved female classmate before, Leng Xing blushed for a moment before immediately becoming smug.

Leng Xing's inner monologue: See, she still likes me after all! Women are all two-faced!

Meanwhile, Lin Xiaoai—

OS: So this is what my senior meant by "please help me with this trouble"! So... so she's been busy with breaking off the engagement lately?

Both dreamers revealed a mysterious yet sweet smile.

Chapter Twenty: I like you too, so let's lick each other's boots.

After the first snowfall of early winter.

The engagement between the wealthy Yu family and the wealthy Leng family has been officially dissolved.

The entire elite social circle was shaken. Hadn't the two tycoons always been working together so well? How could things suddenly fall apart?

Under public pressure, major media outlets rushed to report on the matter, causing the stocks of both the Yu and Leng families to decline. At the height of the public outcry, the heads of the two families suddenly held a press conference.

They acknowledged the annulment of the engagement, but criticized online claims that certain business dealings led to the breakdown of the relationship.

They simply said that times are changing, young people's thoughts are unpredictable, and everyone is more open-minded. They don't like arranged marriages and only break off the engagement for the sake of the children.

At the press conference, the parents from both families spoke sincerely, winning over a large number of onlookers.

Thus, the commercial hype came to an end. The stocks of both the Yu and Leng families rose slightly, major economic newspapers closed their reports, but entertainment newspapers reacted swiftly.
