The two then entered into a harmonious conversation, with the student council president acting as her regular chatter partner. They would watch an episode of a newly released anime they were following during their breaks from work to relax and relieve work stress. After getting to know her over this period of time, Guang Guangchen discovered that Yan Xingmeng was not the kind of person who did nothing. On the contrary, she was genuinely fulfilling her duties as student council president. In some ways, she was a very serious girl, which gave Guang Guangchen a new understanding of her.

Another hour passed in a flash. Yan Xingmeng rubbed her tired face, took out the keys from her pocket, and handed them to Guangchang.

The standard script is here, and the key to access is in hand.

Guang Guangchen took the key, said goodbye to the chairman, and got up to leave. Halfway there, Yan Xingmeng called him back, and Guang Guangchen turned around.

"Didn't you say I only see you in the botanical garden? Then let's meet outside more often next time." Yan Xingmeng's voice was uniquely magnetic. Guang Chen had once described the president as an elf in the botanical garden, a specific environment with a specific spawn point. But now this elf in the botanical garden was saying that she wanted to leave and meet him outside next time. This was truly a... peculiar feeling.

Guangchang was momentarily infected by this inexplicable emotion, and after a couple of seconds he hummed in agreement: "See you next time."

Their meeting this time was quite ordinary, but when they parted, something seemed a little off. Guang Chen couldn't quite put his finger on it. He unlocked the door with his key, left the botanical garden, and headed straight for the teaching building.

As school was about to end, and it was raining again, Guangchang chose to return to the classroom via the corridor. As he walked, he bumped into someone, which seemed more like intentional than accidental.

Guangchang looked at the other person's face, and when he recognized who it was, he let out a long sigh in his heart.

How could it be you, Han Junche...

37. You just wait for me there!

Meeting Han Junche at this time was never a good thing. The sound of rain gradually getting heavier filled the air. Han Junche's image on campus had always been that of a friendly older brother. He was a bit taller than Guang Guangchen, standing at 1.81 meters, and had a model-like physique. There were no restrictions on hairstyles on campus, or perhaps it was the strange feeling that only handsome guys could have such hairstyles. He had short, choppy hair and was now standing with his hands in his pockets, his gaze fixed straight on Guang Guangchen.

This is blatant targeting...

"Guang Chen from Class 4 of Grade 11, right?" Han Junche asked, his tone somewhat condescending.

Guangchang was a little nervous at this moment. In the past, he had seen many types of intelligent villains, especially those who could pretend to be harmless little lambs in front of others. Just thinking about the various ways he might be bullied in the future, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness. He glanced at the other person's face and thought, why not just punch him and kill him?

While Guangchang was having a brainstorming session, Han Junche saw that he didn't speak, so he continued, "I know you even if you don't speak. Enough with the nonsense. I only have one condition."

He took a step forward and stood in front of Guang Changchen, uttering a line that only he found extremely oppressive: "From now on, stay away from Hui Chang. A high-class flower like her is not someone a weed from the foot of the mountain like you can reach."

Then came a sharp look.

Guangchang looked completely bewildered, as if he could still hear some strange background music playing in his ears. But wait, he was completely wrong. Guangchang had once again forgotten all the bizarre things that happened in this world where love reigns supreme. He was nothing like those intelligent villains who could endure for half a season. Here, the villains' lines were instantly recognizable as evil. However, naturally, only those who were talking to him would realize that he was a bad guy. Some mindless onlookers would only show their disbelief and strange behavior when the villain was truly exposed.

And... what kind of line is "high-class beauty"? Guangchang Chen wanted to rub his ears. You might as well just say I'm a stinky rat in the sewer, ugh.

Suddenly realizing that the other party was this classic villain, Guangchang felt relieved and calmly looked at the other party, waiting for his next move.

"I know you might disagree and think I'm abusing my power, but I can also tell you directly that even on my own, I'm better than you in every way." Han Junche's gaze turned to the outside of the corridor. To the right of the corridor was the school's west playground, and through the wire fence, he could see the starting line. He pointed there and said, "Then let's have a competition. Whoever finishes ten laps in this downpour first will have the right to pursue the president! The other must withdraw unconditionally. If you're a man, then compete with me."

The sense of déjà vu is getting stronger and stronger...

Guang Chen glanced at Han Junche, who was brimming with confidence, and then at the environment, which had turned into a moderate rain. It really was true that they would decide the outcome of the battle in the rain.

"Alright, since you want to compete, I'll agree. But I need to use the restroom first. You can wait for me at the starting line."

Upon hearing this, Han Junche's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed with delight, "Great! It's a deal. I believe that as a man, you won't go back on your word."

After saying that, he walked straight out of the right side of the corridor and jogged towards the 100-meter starting line in the west playground in the rain. Guang Chen even remembered that there was a large loop between the entrance of the playground and this point. He just walked there in the rain. How amazing...

Anyway, let's go back to the classroom first.

Guang Guangchen rubbed his nose, slightly unable to hold back, and quickened his pace. Getting his shoes wet wouldn't be good. After returning to the classroom, Guang Guangchen packed his things and decided to go home when it was time to leave school. As for what happened to Han Junche, Guang Guangchen really didn't know...

……

"Han Junche has gone home to rest due to a severe cold."

"Haha..." Guangchang replied with an awkward laughing emoji.

At night, Guangchang Chen was targeted by Yan Xingmeng after dinner. It was rare for her to send him messages at night. So far, she had always been very ritualistic. Even though she had her own contact information, she liked to call him by using someone else's pager, thus completing a kind of condescending and amusing thing.

"Is it related to you? I've seen the campus surveillance footage. Han Junche only said a few words to you in the corridor, and then he stupidly ran to the playground to get soaked in the rain."

"So you really can see the campus surveillance footage... This really shows the power of capital."

Guangchang Chen didn't intend to hide anything. From Shan Yimo's words, Yan Xingmeng seemed to have a rather bad impression of Han Junche. Then she told him everything that happened before school ended. It seemed that Yan Xingmeng was also very familiar with Han Junche's true personality.

Sure enough, after she finished speaking, Yan Xingmeng sent two laughing emojis in a row.

"You did a good job. He really needs to get his head cleaned up."

See it.

Guangchang Chen had long noticed that on rainy days, more than twenty people at school would catch a cold from getting wet, regardless of gender. The heavier the rain, the more people there were, as if the rain could indicate how determined a person was—it was quite an exaggeration.

“I don’t want to talk about him anymore, I’m not interested in him. Let’s talk about you instead,” Yan Xingmeng replied.

Upon seeing this text, Guang Chen paused in his typing. The president's reply was far too direct. He wasn't interested in him, so why didn't he talk about me? It was as if he was extremely interested in me. Shan Yimo's comment, "He is the president's personal toy," almost ruined her image as an upright and incorruptible leader in Nuan Xin's eyes.

"What do I have to talk about?"

"Let's talk about... how we felt about our conversation today. I only realized after you left that you seemed to have been listening to me the whole time, without me saying anything profound."

Seeing this, Guangchang felt really embarrassed. He was really sorry for repeating this point over and over again. In his previous life, as a corporate slave, he subconsciously wanted to preach some grand principles to show that he was an adult. He was really sorry for that behavior!

"After you said that last time, you even told your two best friends in the student council about it. Now, I don't dare to preach anymore. No, from now on, I'm going to get rid of this bad habit."

"Bad habits?"

"I don't think it's a bad habit at all. On the contrary, I think some of your profound principles are still quite fresh. Just stick to your persona and stay the same Guangchang Chen who talks big and I make fun of him."

Hey friend, you've crossed a line.

Even without voice communication, the power of words can sometimes surpass that of spoken language, because it evokes a deeper sense of personal preference and imagination...

Whether Guangchang or Yanxingmeng possessed the succubus constitution was completely unclear at this point.

38. I don't dislike you either. (New)

……

Guang Guangchen felt that his life was quite fulfilling. He had to study for exams one minute and busy with his popular Douyin shop the next. Shan Yimo's reply was still pending, and there was also... Guang Guangchen's gaze slowly fell on the right side of the circular flower bed, where Yan Xingmeng was standing and waiting for him.

Just as she said two days ago, their next meeting would indeed be outside. But what was she trying to do by deliberately calling her out here this time?

"President... what are you doing hiding here?" Guangchang asked curiously. Was the president avoiding people? They weren't doing anything shady.

"Shh, come here." Yan Xingmeng put her right index finger to her lips and beckoned him over. She was so mysterious that Guang Chen's steps became stealthy. When he got to Yan Xingmeng's side, she pulled up her sleeve and walked away.

Behind the circular flower bed is another parking shed, but it's mostly filled with electric bikes; students wouldn't come here at this time.

Just as Guang Guangchen was about to ask another question, the two passed a pillar and Guang Guangchen immediately saw an old acquaintance.

Chu Ling.

And the three girls standing right in front of him.

Guangchang's mind raced, recalling the character relationship diagram that Yan Xingmeng had personally drawn on the whiteboard in the center of the botanical garden last time. Chu Ling was connected to three girls, making the current situation quite clear. Combined with the inexplicably tense atmosphere in the garage, Guangchang squinted and turned to look at Yan Xingmeng beside him. No! You've come to show me a scene of chaos!

I take back what I said earlier; this really is something shameful.

Guangchang pursed his lips, awkwardly exchanging glances with Yan Xingmeng. Yan Xingmeng seemed quite enthusiastic, no wonder she had been messaging him to come down quickly. Guangchang had been wondering what had happened to make Yan Xingmeng not go through anyone else but directly message him via WeChat. Wasn't that embarrassing for a leader like him? Oh, so that's why…

Yan Xingmeng slowly extended her right index finger and poked Guangchang Chen's cheek, forcibly turning his head to the "front line".

Cough, it wasn't that I wanted to see it on purpose.

Inside the garage, Chu Ling stood in front of three girls with different types and temperaments: a petite younger sister type, a tall and mature older sister type, and a girl wearing glasses who looked very well-behaved. However, the three girls seemed to be having a very delicate conversation. They all looked quite excited, their faces flushed, and their eyes were all fixed on Chu Ling in front of them.

"I called you all out today just to clarify our relationship!" Chu Ling finally raised her head, which had been lowered, as if she had made up her mind.

Apart from the well-behaved girl, the other two looked noticeably worse.

"You may not be able to accept it, but in my heart, Qingrou is my girlfriend! Although we haven't known each other for very long, I truly love her from the bottom of my heart! I hope you can understand that!"

"But didn't I catch you looking really sad the other day? Did you have a lot of unpleasantness with her?" the mature-looking girl retorted.

"Yes... but relationships are never smooth sailing. I can understand your feelings for me all this time, but my heart has never changed. No matter what happens, I love her and will not leave her. So, please give up on me!" After saying this, Chu Ling bowed deeply to the two girls. This formal rejection left the two girls feeling incredibly shaken, and countless memories flooded their minds.

"I...I can't accept it..."

"Yiyun! It's come to this! Show some backbone!" The mature woman suddenly shouted, stopping the petite and cute girl from saying what she was about to say in a desperate attempt to defy the situation. The girl bit her lower lip tightly. Although she was very unwilling, she knew that she had no chance anymore.

"I wish you happiness. After going through so much, I think your relationship will be even stronger in the future." The mature woman was truly magnanimous. She smiled slightly at the two of them and then led the petite woman away from the side.

Only Chu Ling and the bespectacled, well-behaved girl remained. They looked at each other, as if they had a lot to say, but when the words reached their lips, they could only smile faintly. The two then embraced, ushering in a happy ending.

Ok.

What exactly did I see?

Guangchang looked bewildered. "Who pressed the fast-forward button for me and jumped straight to the finale of the Taiwanese drama? After a series of torturous love stories, the male lead confronts his true feelings, rejects everyone else, and ultimately chooses to be with the female lead."

"How is it?" Yan Xingmeng's voice came from Guangchang Chen's ear.

"What do you mean, 'how come'? This is a happy ending, isn't it?"

"Yes, then can we update the topic with a new reference? In the end, despite being surrounded by a lot of romantic opportunities, Chu Ling still chose true love."

Guangchang Chen suddenly understood why Yan Xingmeng had called him out when he heard her say that. The project from last time was still ongoing! He had just said that high school romances were nothing more than fast-food relationships, yet she had invested so much time in them. Did she really have nothing better to do? Hmm?

Guangchang Chen gave a helpless expression, and then Yan Xingmeng pulled him back.

"Is this matter that important? Why are you bringing it up repeatedly, President? Or are you just trying to refute my idea?" Guangchang asked.

“Half and half.” Yan Xingmeng sat down on the bench by the flower bed, resting her elbows on the armrests, her palms supporting her cheeks, her fingertips lightly touching her cheeks, and then continued, “At that time, I just thought your topic was very interesting, and I couldn’t give a conclusion immediately. Driven by curiosity, I naturally thought about doing more experiments, but… the results of the experiments are obvious. Although there was one example of Chu Ling, the other three examples in the student council all ended in failure. Your argument may really be correct.”

Yan Xingmeng seemed a little disappointed. Guangchang Chen didn't understand what was wrong with her. The two of them weren't in a competitive relationship. Did she suddenly realize that the love of the people around her was actually just a momentary impulse, not lasting long, and felt cheap, which was why she was disappointed?

Seeing that no one else had experienced this kind of trouble, and that they would still choose to date as usual even if they did, and move on to the next relationship after a breakup, Yan Xingmeng seemed to be affected by the shock of her own thinking, perhaps feeling disappointed in the real world...

Guangchang Chen let out a long breath, stepped forward, and came to Yan Xingmeng. He said, "But it's not easy to prove that there are exceptions. Don't be so disappointed. People can't control others, they can only control themselves. If others can't become it, then you should become it yourself. There are always people who persist like this, and I don't dislike such people."

Yan Xingmeng looked a little surprised when she heard this. She looked up and saw that the bare branches on the top of the tree did not look very good in the overall picture, but she found the boy in front of her to be more and more pleasing to the eye.

"Ah! Guang Guangchen, who loves to preach! He's back to life again!" Yan Xingmeng said playfully, pointing at Guang Guangchen and complaining.

Guangchang rolled his eyes at her and replied, "Didn't WeChat just say a couple of days ago that it's not a bad habit..."

"Hmm, it's not bad at all." Yan Xingmeng finally smiled, a smile that made Guangchang Chen subconsciously glance at her a few more times. You know, it's almost instinctive to look at something beautiful a few more times...

Yan Xingmeng stood up, supporting herself on her knees with both hands, as if she had regained all her strength. She took a deep breath and said, "Alright, alright, it's time to get busy. There's still a lot of work waiting for me."

"You still remember you're the student council president?"

"You've been talking too much," Yan Xingmeng said, glancing at him out of the corner of her eye. "Then I'm leaving. You should go back too."

"it is good."

See you next week at riding class.

"what?"

"What I want to hear is not 'ha,' but...?" Yan Xingmeng had only taken a few steps when she turned back, her magnetic voice seemingly possessing magic.

Yan Xingmeng had reverted to her super confident and aloof self as the student council president. Had Guang Guangchen encouraged her? Guang Guangchen nodded gently, saying with a hint of helplessness, "See you next week."

Yan Xingmeng left after hearing this. Guangchang Chen felt that he was really being controlled by the president, but as for whether he regretted saying those words, it seemed... not really.

39. I will trust him!

……

Time flew by, and it was next Monday. With only one day left until the equestrian lesson scheduled with the student council president, Guang Chen felt a strange anxiety rising within her. Did the president really intend to give her one-on-one instruction tomorrow? Wouldn't that be far too blatant? How was she supposed to get through high school? Being targeted by the president's ten thousand admirers! Or was this actually her ultimate goal?

"My brain, my brain..." Guangchang bit his nails. In the past two days, the president hadn't even spoken a word to him. This inexplicable distance only increased Guangchang's panic, as if something big was about to happen.

“Boss, the Douyin shop is doing well this week, shall we go get some sukiyaki again? Boss? Oh!” Chen Nuanxin saw that her boss was still in a daze, so she leaned closer, put her hands near her mouth, and called out in his ear.

However, Guangchang was still distracted. It seemed that the Douyin shop matter no longer affected him. Chen Nuanxin waved her hand in front of the boss's eyes, but there was still no reaction. Goodness, he was really obsessed.

While Chen Nuanxin was pondering, she took out all kinds of snacks from the drawer and brought them to the boss's front. They were as dazzling as if she were choosing goods, but unfortunately, they still couldn't impress Guangchang at all.

Chen Nuanxin spread her hands, indicating that there was nothing more she could do.

She was aware of the specifics. She had heard from senior student Shan Yimo that the leader and the president were currently in a strange relationship. Later, the leader had also told her on the way that the president would be assisting her with her riding lesson the next day. She was still too nervous...

"That's heartwarming, Guang." Zhou Qianwen walked over from the side. Having just handed in her homework and returned from the office, Zhou Qianwen immediately noticed Guang Guangchen's anxious expression and asked with concern, "What's wrong, Guang?"

Chen Nuanxin shrugged, shook her head, and murmured softly, "It's like the tension before the college entrance exam, and also like the fear before execution..."

"what are you saying?"

As he was asking the question, Guangchang Chen swayed as he got up. It was time for him to go to the student council classroom. He glanced at the two of them, then returned to his listless state and walked towards the back door of the classroom.

“Guang…” Zhou Qianwen was a little worried about him, her gaze fixed on the back door of the classroom.

"It's alright, it's alright. It's just a horse riding lesson I arranged with the president. Boss won't do anything to me." Chen Nuanxin waved her hand and said with a smile. Although she was also surprised when she first heard the news, from Senior Sister Shan Yimo's description, the president didn't seem to dislike the boss at all.
