42. Calling someone "brother" is against the rules!

"But..." Seeing that Guang Chen wouldn't admit it, Shan Yimo didn't want to press the matter further, so she changed her tune, "Okay, as long as the matter is temporarily resolved, eat more."

"Yes!" Chen Nuanxin saluted Shan Yimo as if she had received an order, and then continued to devour the lobster. Shan Yimo had never seen anyone look so happy while eating, and out of curiosity, she took a few more glances.

With this matter resolved, Shan Yimo's original suggestion of pretending to be her boyfriend was also put on hold. Guang Chen was initially tempted by the 50,000 yuan a month offer, but now that it's gone, he still feels a little heartbroken. His pride in his previous life didn't allow him to earn much a month, and he still can't let go of his pride. He just hopes that his Douyin shop can earn more money.

Shan Yimo rarely spoke while eating, and this time she didn't even mention the president's affairs. Chen Nuanxin focused on eating, while Guangchang Chen scrolled through short videos. The three of them did their own thing, and soon the meal was over, and they all went home.

Standing in front of the Western restaurant waiting for a car, Shan Yimo said that she would go shopping with her sister for a while, but she would arrange for a car to take them home separately.

Just as Guangchang was pondering, Chen Nuanxin stepped forward, raised her right hand, and said, "No need for that. I drove here. I'll take the boss home."

drive?

Five minutes later, Chen Nuanxin, wearing a pink helmet, slowly rode over on a small electric scooter, drove up to Guangchang Chen's side, and even braked with her foot.

"How about it?"

"That's heartwarming. You actually bought a little electric scooter?"

"Yeah! I'm not quite used to it yet. Boss, sit in the back seat." Chen Nuanxin turned to the side and patted the back seat.

Guangchang didn't care and nodded in agreement. He vaguely remembered that the law stipulated that electric scooters could not carry people on the back, but if they couldn't carry people, then why did they have a back seat? This became a big mystery.

"They're here." Shan Yimo suddenly looked to the side, and a figure jogged over from that side, calling her "sister" repeatedly.

That's Shan Yimo's younger sister! They heard she's still in her first year of high school. Only when they got closer did Guang Guangchen and Chen Nuanxin see her clearly. She was wearing a pure white dress and had a slender figure. Standing next to Shan Yimo, she was half a head shorter. Shan Yimo is about 1.75 meters tall, and her sister is about 1.62 meters tall. But what shocked Guang Guangchen and Chen Nuanxin the most was that the two sisters almost shared the same face. It's amazing that such beauty can be passed down. They suggested that the parents keep having more children.

The biggest difference between the two sisters is their expressions. Shan Yimo has never shown any dramatic changes in expression and speaks very little, but her younger sister Shan Yimo seems quite cheerful. She greets everyone with a smile as soon as she arrives, and her voice is friendly and sweet.

It gives me the strange feeling that I'm watching a single woman with a dual personality; it's really weird.

"Sis, did you eat your dinner?" The younger sister, with her hair in a single ponytail, looked young and energetic as she asked with a smile.

In contrast, Shan Yimo responded calmly and then said, "Then let's set off."

"Hmm... We can set off, but are you sure you don't want to introduce your two friends, sister?" The younger sister frowned slightly and asked her older sister.

Shan Yimo gave a soft "oh," then remembered and turned around, only to see Guang Guangchen and Chen Nuanxin both looking dazed.

"I almost forgot."

Is this something that can be forgotten?

"Guang Chen and Chen Nuanxin from Class 4, Grade 11, this is my younger sister, named Shan Yaoning. Yao is the character with the 'king' radical, and Ning is the character for lemon."

"Lemon..." Chen Nuanxin murmured. She had been watching too many short videos these past few days and almost sang it out loud, but to her surprise, Shan Yaoning smiled and sang it out first, "The melancholy of that day, right?"

Wow……

Chen Nuanxin pointed at the other person, looked at the leader, and said, "I feel like we'll get along very well."

She is indeed very approachable. Many children from wealthy families in the school act aloof and superior, but Shan Yaoning is completely different. She is even willing to joke around with Chen Nuanxin. She immediately gained a lot of initial goodwill from them.

"Then this brother must be one of the newly promoted core members of the student council, right? That seems to be the setup, isn't it?" Shan Yaoning attends a different high school and can only learn about the core members of F6 from her sister.

“It’s not a setting, it’s a rule,” Shan Yimo said seriously, glancing at Guang Yuanchen out of the corner of her eye, and continued, “He’s in the student council, but not a core member.”

Upon hearing this, Shan Yaoning was quite surprised: "Didn't you say that the core members and ordinary members have different classrooms? Why would you invite an ordinary member to eat here?"

At this moment, Chen Nuanxin raised her right hand, indicating, "I'm a person too."

"Oh, could this lady be a core member?"

"Me neither, I wasn't even in the student council," Chen Nuanxin said frankly.

"That's why..."

"In short, the reason we're all together is because of some romantic entanglements between men and women," Chen Nuanxin said, nodding seriously as she crossed her arms.

"Is that so!" Shan Yaoning exclaimed, her eyes widening in surprise and her fists clenched.

"..." Shan Yimo was speechless for a moment. Chen Nuanxin's words were correct, but when said in this context, they seemed to convey a different meaning.

Shan Yaoning's eyes then swept over Guang Yuanchen, gleaming with a sharp light.

For some reason, I had a strange feeling that I was watching something heartwarming.

Chen Nuanxin pointed at her again, facing the eldest sister, and said, "Let's just say we get along very well."

"It's hard to explain in a few words right now. I'll tell you slowly when we get home. You should go now." Shan Yimo chose to leave. Who knows what the two lively girls might talk about if they continued chatting.

But the next second, she received two pairs of expectant eyes staring intently at her, one from her younger sister and the other from Chen Nuanxin.

"Ha...then let's exchange contact information."

"Great!"

The two girls exchanged contact information without hesitation and were overjoyed. But then Shan Yaoning extended her WeChat contact information to Guang Chen and said with a smile, "Brother, please add me too."

What an enthusiastic girl! Especially since she keeps calling me "brother," it's against the rules no matter where you go.

"It's okay, I'll push it to you." Chen Nuanxin raised an eyebrow at her.

Shan Yaoning hummed in agreement twice and gave her a thumbs up.

The two sides finally parted ways. Guang Chen and Chen Nuanxin watched the two sisters leave. Nuanxin was a little reluctant to part, but thankfully they exchanged contact information.

"This little sister seems really interesting."

"Yes."

Guangchang then sat on the back of the electric scooter, holding onto Nuanxin's clothes. The scooter swayed and drove away. The sky was already setting. As they drove onto the bridge, they looked at the huge lake on the right, its surface reflecting ripples. A gentle breeze was blowing, and it felt wonderful.

“Boss.” Chen Nuanxin suddenly spoke up.

"Hmm?" Guangchang opened one eye.

"I'll definitely get into the same university as you, boss!"

"Really? Good luck then."

"Absolutely! Wow!" Chen Nuanxin leaned forward and shouted, turning the handle all the way down! The electric scooter carrying the two of them continued to move at a snail's pace.

43. A boring love game!

……

"Ah, so tired..." Guangchang plopped down on a bench at the edge of the circular flower bed, looking up at the bare maple tree above. He never expected that he would be so exhausted on the way back to the classroom from the student council that he would have to sit down and rest for a while.

My life lately has been more exhausting than fulfilling. Studying, making money, student council, special courses, and then constantly being bothered by the student council president... ugh... my brain...

Looking around at the bustling crowds, the men and women walking together, the saccharine scent of romance still emanating from them—are these guys superhuman? How can they manage to be in love and still study so well… Could it be that we only appear similar on the surface, but are actually completely different internally?

I'll try to catch up on some sleep during my lunch break today...

"Guangdong Chen?"

He heard someone calling his name again, and Guang Chen's nerves tensed up instantly. Why did someone always have to contact him at such inopportune times? Hmm?

Guangchang glanced to his right with a slightly unfriendly look, and his eyes met those of Vice President Sun Weizecheng. His faint dark circles and bloodshot pupils startled Sun Weizecheng, who had come over to greet him in a friendly manner.

"Wow, do you stay up late? You look so tired. You should get more rest."

"You're right, I'll go back and rest now." With that, Guang Chen got up and walked towards the teaching building.

“Well, let’s talk on the way back.” Sun Weize’s eyes narrowed into slits again as he followed Guang Yuchen, and continued, “I heard you’ve been getting quite close to the president lately. So you still have feelings for him after all…”

"Is it about love again..." Guangchang's tone was filled with resentment. Do these guys really replenish their physical energy through love? Guangchang tilted his head slightly, slowly raised one index finger of his left hand, and said, "Don't mention love to me again. There's no possibility between me and the president, and she probably doesn't have any feelings for me either."

"How could that be! I heard from the president that she even personally went to instruct you in your equestrian lessons," Sun Weize said, raising his voice to emphasize.

"That's true, but what I said is also true." Guangchang's gaze was blank ahead. He wasn't just making things up. Others often measure a person's feelings through their own perception. Sometimes, when they feel good about themselves, they may have the illusion that the other person likes them, and they may muster the courage to confess, only to end up failing miserably. But Guangchang is different. He has a cheat code that allows him to measure the level of affection. So far, the president's affection level for him has been hovering around 35 points, never reaching 40 points, which means he doesn't genuinely like him.

It's not exactly malicious, but it's still the same mentality of treating oneself as a toy. Maybe they heard me say that love is troublesome, so they treated myself as an experimental subject, teasing me from time to time. By the time I really fall in love, that's the day when the other person gets tired of playing with this toy.

Please, how could the leader of the F6 core members, who is unanimously recognized as the most difficult to pursue and the most popular among everyone in the school, be interested in an ordinary person like him? It's just that he happened to hear a new topic from himself and accidentally triggered some strange subservient concept in the world's view of love.

“How could this be? But I feel…” Sun Weizecheng paused, his words faltering. Although he had heard a lot about Guangchang from the president, from his perspective as a good friend, he could still vaguely sense that this way of speaking and attitude…

"Stop talking about it, Vice President. I know you mean well, and I can see your sincerity. If you still want us to be friends, then let's not bring this up again. I'll say it again: I won't be dating in my entire high school career. That's all, I'm going upstairs now, you should go back too." Guangchang Chen's favorability rating for Sun Weizecheng was 33 points. Even though the two hadn't met much, the other's favorability rating had risen quite quickly. Although he was a fun-loving person, he genuinely wanted to support his friend's relationship... But this time, things weren't actually quite right.

Winning someone's heart is never easy. Guangchang didn't think he would be liked by someone so easily. He hadn't shown enough. These weren't enough to support someone's liking, especially since the core members of F6 were a group of handsome men and beautiful women, a gathering place for wealthy people. Each of them must have had big problems to solve. After a very long period of redemption, the two finally got together.

So far, Guang Guangchen has only shown the president simple obedience and occasional glimpses of helpless gentleness. Gentleness can be a fatal flaw, but it can never be a reason to fall in love. In his past life, Guang Guangchen had seen too many gentle people suffer greatly in love. Had he been too indulgent with the president lately... or was it because Shan Yimo was giving him too much money...?

The two's companionship attracted the attention of many students around them. Guang Guangchen asked Sun Weizecheng to leave first. Guang Guangchen's reputation was truly great. It was confirmed that he had contact with every core member of the student council, and was even more familiar with the three core members. Now it seemed that it was indeed true. This rumor quickly spread throughout the school.

Guang Chen ignored the stares around him and went upstairs. But Han Junche saw everything from the corridor on the second floor of the opposite teaching building, right across from the stairwell. He gritted his teeth and confirmed the fact that had been troubling him.

……

"That's what he said?"

“Yes, he said he wouldn’t date during his high school years, and he seems really tired lately.” In the student council president’s office, Sun Weizecheng was talking to Yan Xingmeng about this. Yan Xingmeng was busy with her work, while Shan Yimo was helping her organize the documents.

"Really."

Seeing Yan Xingmeng's unmoved expression, Sun Weizecheng already had his own answer. He frowned slightly and said, "If this is your attitude, then what was the point of all the worry we've done for you all this time? Were we just being presumptuous? Now that Guang Chen has seen through it all, are you still going to continue with your self-amusing charade?"

"He's quite sensitive to emotions, so he wasn't moved at all. So he already knew all along." Yan Xingmeng murmured softly, then handed the work in her hand to Shan Yimo and continued nonchalantly, "Then let's not play anymore, okay? Why are you so angry?"

"As expected... you're incredibly twisted! No wonder you're so emotionally detached!"

"That's enough, stop talking." Shan Yimo interrupted Sun Weizecheng in time.

Sun Weizecheng was a little agitated. After calming down, he casually joked, "It's great that Guangchang could see that, so he won't get hurt."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the door of the president's office, opened the door and left. This was one of the rare times that the three core members parted on bad terms.

44. It's just an illusion!

……

"I will fully support you, Guangchang. Just do what you want to do."

Guangchang listened as Sun Weizecheng suddenly came to his side and talked about the president in a rather agitated and angry manner. Come to think of it, the two of them weren't really that close, were they? No, they weren't close at all!

"Why did you suddenly decide to stand on the sidelines all by yourself?"

"No, it's not about being on your side, but rather that I feel great just standing against Yan Xingmeng right now. So I will fully support you from now on, and you will be my friend from now on." Sun Weizecheng's emotions were unusually strong. He, who usually had a melancholic British style, looked a bit out of control now. It's not hard to imagine what he had been through.

Guang Guangchen only heard Sun Weizecheng complaining about the president, but still didn't understand the specifics. So he asked for a general overview, and Sun Weizecheng told Guang Guangchen in detail what had just happened in the president's office. The core reason for telling him in such detail was to hope that Guang Guangchen could give up any hope that there was still a chance with the president. He had overthought things and thought that Yan Xingmeng was really different this time, but he didn't expect her to be the same as before.

However, to Sun Weize's surprise, Guangchang didn't react much after listening, only giving a simple reply.

"Are you alright?" Sun Weizecheng watched for his next change in expression. Even though he knew that the president was looking for him for his own amusement, Yan Xingmeng was, after all, a girl who stood on a cloud. After spending a few weeks together, it was inevitable that he would be a little moved.

"It's all fine, in fact, I'm quite relieved. It's finally over. Thank you for helping me get things out of this. I was quite worried about the heavy schedule ahead, but now you've removed one of those things from my life. I think she'll be too embarrassed to contact me again in the future," Guangchang said.

According to Sun Weizecheng, Yan Xingmeng treated their meetings with utter indifference, concluding that she wouldn't play the game anymore. Was the farce finally over? Guangchang Chen was about to return to normal school life. Shan Yimo had only contacted him because of the student council president. Now that his connection with the president was severed, she definitely wouldn't contact him anymore. His relationship with the core members of F6 had finally been restored.

What Guangchang found most puzzling was that it was Sun Weizecheng, the person he was least familiar with, who wanted to become his friend. Seeing that Sun Weizecheng seemed quite excited, he asked, "Um, why are you saying these things for me? Didn't you initially approach me because of the president?"

Sun Weize hesitated for a moment after hearing this, a flicker of emotion crossing his eyes. It seemed as if a memory flashed through his mind. He turned his head and said in a deep voice, "I just feel that the feelings of being in love shouldn't be so casually squandered. By the time you truly fall in love and then apologize, it will be too late..."

Oh... In a sense, he's also a classic love-struck fool. At this moment, Guangchang Chen recalled some of his personal settings, such as having a childhood sweetheart he's liked since he was a child. This incident clearly touched a belief that he has always held in his heart. It may not only be for Guangchang Chen's sake, but also for his own.

"I see. Although there are still many things I don't understand, we can be friends." Guang Chen first sensed the other party's genuine nature, and secondly, the favorability score was 39 points. Data doesn't lie, so sincerity for sincerity, making friends is naturally no problem.

Sun Weize's eyes lit up, and a smile finally appeared on his face. He even reached out to shake hands. Guangchang was a little uncomfortable with such formality, but he accepted it nonetheless.

The two stayed by a shady spot under a tree at the foot of the teaching building. After chatting, they left together, and on the way, they called Chen Nuanxin, who had been waiting on the bench. Seeing that the two had finished talking, Chen Nuanxin got up and came over, still holding her phone, and said hurriedly, "Boss, boss, let's go to your house this weekend. It's been a long time since I've been there. Qianwen also said she would go. Do you have any plans for this weekend?"

"I'm free this weekend, right? Any fun things to do at my place?"

"Don't worry about that. We can make pizzas and cakes together. Qianwen has been helping her parents cook since she was little, so she's good at it. She's used to eating out, so it's nice to have some home-cooked food occasionally," Chen Nuanxin suggested.

"Sounds good, let's go on Saturday then." Guang Chen smiled. Sun Weizecheng had also seen this. It seemed that the other party really didn't take this matter to heart. Sun Weizecheng pursed his lips, hesitated for two seconds, then stepped forward and said, "Then I'll go too!"

"Huh?" Guangchang and Chen Nuanxin turned around at the same time and said in unison.

"I said I'd go too! Aren't we friends?"

"Well... actually, that handshake just now was part of the social etiquette..."

"is that a lie!"

Although the answer hurt Sun Weizecheng, after several rounds of debate, he finally agreed to let him come to his house to play, mainly because of the 39 points of goodwill he had with Sun.

……

Saturday arrived in the blink of an eye. In the days since he met Sun Weizecheng, Guangchang Chen had not received any more messages from Yan Xingmeng, nor had he seen her. It was as if she had vanished into thin air. Oh right, his evaluation of her was that she was like an elf in a botanical garden, unseen by ordinary people, only visible to certain people.
