"How is it?" Chen Nuanxin asked nervously.

"..." Jiang Xintong glanced at her, then looked away and said softly, "It's quite delicious."

"Yay!" Chen Nuanxin was overjoyed and stood up with her hands raised, but was pulled back to her seat by Guangchang Chen next to her. She felt that something she liked had been recognized!

How could anyone in this world not like junk food?! If you're feeling down, order a burger and fries! If that doesn't improve your mood, add a Coke! Feeling down just means you haven't had enough sugar! Let's be steadfast sugar warriors together!

Even though Jiang Xintong was very hungry, she still ate in an orderly manner. It seems that she was raised with strict family discipline. This hamburger, which would probably be finished in half a minute by Wenxin, took Jiang Xintong five or six minutes to finish and there was still a little bit left.

Guang Guangchen actually quite liked Jiang Xintong's hypocritical behavior, or rather, she was genuinely disgusted at first. However, she didn't refuse to go to McDonald's because of her dislike, and eventually accepted other people's recommendations to try the food. She was really much more mature than Guang Guangchen had originally imagined her to be an arrogant person...

They ate for another twenty minutes before finally finishing. Jiang Xintong was really stuffed today, but the taste... was actually quite good. She really liked the flavor of the crispy roasted chicken wings.

“Boss! Different stores have different delicious things. Next time I’ll take you to eat something else, like Burger King’s double Whopper, Dicos’ chicken leg, KFC’s original recipe chicken…” Chen Nuanxin continued to recommend to Jiang Xintong with great interest, counting on her fingers.

Jiang Xintong's behavior was...

Jiang Xintong crossed her arms, her fingertips lightly tapping her other arm. She looked away and stammered, "Wait, wait until I have time next time..."

Yes, that's how she answered.

It seems that this small group may have developed a considerable degree of cohesion in a short period of time.

……

At the end of October, as November was approaching, Guangchang Chen had been staying in Jiang Xintong's small group for two weeks. After a rainy season, another batch of students with love-struck tendencies caught colds and fell ill. The school clinic was now in short supply of beds, the temperature was dropping sharply, and it was finally time to switch to winter uniforms.

Jiang Xintong used her connections to get an empty classroom approved by the school to serve as a base for her group. Therefore, there was no need for the club to exist at all, as Jiang Xintong herself was already comparable to the student council.

"Boss, it's getting cold, put on a coat." In the empty classroom, Chen Nuanxin casually draped a coat over Jiang Xintong's shoulders. They say money nourishes people, and it certainly does. Chen Nuanxin is now looking full of energy. She just received a monthly salary of 30,000 yuan from Miss Jiang a couple of days ago, and she hasn't completely shaken off her sycophantic state yet. She'll probably stay in that state for a few more days.

The air conditioning in the empty classroom was warm and cozy. Jiang Xintong felt a little sleepy and yawned. She was gradually starting to regard this place as her new base. In the future, she would inevitably add all sorts of furniture and decorations, just like the president did in the botanical garden. Choosing an empty classroom was obviously a step below the president's level.

"Heartwarming, could you please go to the classroom and get my schoolbag for me?" Guangchang said at this moment.

"Do we have to move our review sessions here from now on?"

"Maybe."

"Oh, oh." Chen Nuanxin nodded repeatedly, then quickly left the classroom through the front door. In terms of executing orders, the leader still has more say than the boss. Who knows if she will become a rogue ninja in the future.

After Nuanxin left, Jiang Xintong slowly slumped onto the table, raised her right hand, and lazily pointed to the classroom front door that Nuanxin had left without closing it: "Close the door."

A gentle, cold breeze blew in, and Jiang Xintong felt for a moment that it would freeze her awake.

Guangchang responded, got up and closed the door. He turned to look at Jiang Xintong's lazy appearance, and after three or four seconds, he couldn't help but ask, "Miss, so what exactly is our group supposed to do?"

Two weeks have passed, and the group has done absolutely nothing! This behavior of taking wages for nothing has instilled a strange sense of panic in Guang Chen. No! I'm not a scab! It's not that he thinks a leisurely job is bad; he just can't accept the fact that one day Jiang Xintong will suddenly discover that the two of them are actually complete wastes, and what kind of disappointed look she will give them.

Even if you don't do it, just fulfilling your obligation to remind others at all times will make you feel much more secure about receiving the money.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xintong immediately raised her head halfway, her sharp eyes looking over, and said in a deep voice, "You rascal, just a couple of days ago when we were handing out money you were calling me 'boss,' how come you've changed your address so quickly? You money-grubber!"

Guangchang spread his hands and said, "Doesn't that better demonstrate my noble character?"

Walking back, Guangchang sat down in the seat in front of Jiang Xintong, a position they had never been so close to before. This surprised Jiang Xintong, who muttered to herself, "What did you want to say?"

"What I want to say is that someone who made a big show of going to defeat the student council president at the beginning of the semester is now sitting in an empty classroom with the air conditioning on, taking afternoon naps, just two weeks later. What's going on with this drastic contrast? Have you been moved by me and my kindness these past two weeks? Suddenly realized the aura of the beauty of humanity, quickly achieved inner peace, and switched directly to the standard happy ending of the story?"

"..." Jiang Xintong didn't reply, but her body suddenly tensed up, showing that she had listened.

"Let me guess, I might be wrong." Guang Chen's gaze lingered on the other person several times, but the other person remained unmoved. He was truly stubborn...

"You actually stopped disliking the student council president a long time ago. It's just a reason, or perhaps a past habit, that made you choose to come to this school, right?"

"..." This time, Jiang Xintong's silence lasted much longer. Anyone who didn't know better would have thought she had fallen asleep. But coincidentally, Guangchang was also a stubborn person, so he sat quietly waiting for her reply.

After a long while, Jiang Xintong slowly raised her head, her expression somewhat embarrassed and a little unwilling. She bit her lower lip and responded in a very soft voice, "Mmm..."

That's right, it's exactly what Guangchang guessed.

Why...why would I think that way?

"It's simple. From what I've learned about you over this period of time, you don't seem like a petty person. On the contrary, you have empathy, are quite mature in your thinking, and will take the initiative to apologize when you discover a problem. You don't seem like someone who would keep holding onto things from your childhood."

"That's not right."

"Hmm? Something's not right?"

Jiang Xintong slowly sat up, smoothed her hair, and decided to speak.

“I wasn’t like this before. I was much more willful than you can imagine. I wanted to compete with Yan Xingmeng in everything, but I lost in everything. Later, when Yan Xingmeng told me to control my emotions and to think from other people’s perspectives, I gradually started to win. That’s when I learned some lessons. Only when your thoughts mature can things turn around. If Yan Xingmeng hadn’t taught me these things, I’m afraid the people around me would never have mentioned these things to me.”

"So, it sounds like you and Yan Xingmeng are more like rivals than enemies, growing together, huh? Ah~ I get it. So what you said in the president's office when you first came to school was just pre-match trash talk, and didn't represent your actual intentions, right?" Guangchang suddenly understood.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xintong blushed, still reluctant to admit it...

"I've only told you about this! You're not allowed to spread it! And you're even more not allowed to tell Yan Xingmeng! Let her be the enemy, let her continue to be the stepping stone on my path to growth!" Jiang Xintong pointed at Guang Chen and declared her heroic words.

I understand, but isn't this a bit too lenient? After all, they've only known each other for two weeks. If Guangchang were replaced by Han Junche, they might have already been completely fooled and blackmailed with leverage. Naive, just too naive...

“What the young lady says is true.” Guangchang nodded in agreement.

"So you're telling me all this because you don't want to stay in this group anymore? You think this group is just a game, right?" Jiang Xintong's tone suddenly turned fierce. You never know how temperamental a girl can be; she was practically poking Guang Yunchen's nose with her finger.

"At this point, it's not even a game. Since you want to compete with the president, then compete with the president fairly and squarely. When you come to the new school, you can compete in all subjects, special courses, and sports. Warmheart and I will fully support you."

"Is it Qian Li who's supporting this?" Jiang Xintong asked suspiciously.

"It hurts me a little when you say that, Miss."

"Then give me back the 30,000 I gave you a couple of days ago." Jiang Xintong reached out and demanded the money.

Guang Guangchen smiled slightly after hearing this. Sure enough, the game of playing house was over. He had been wondering which male protagonist would step in to resolve the conflict between the two girls. Guang Guangchen had even imagined the two girls screaming and cursing each other in the rain until they reconciled, which he felt was in line with the basic social logic.

Surprisingly, there was no conflict between the two girls at all; it was just that outsiders couldn't see it. So, wouldn't this monthly income of 30,000 be a hot potato? Guangchang's noble character...

Guangchang shook his head, slowly raised his right hand to block the other person's view, and said in an unusually calm tone, "Absolutely impossible."

Friend, you've crossed a line.

"Tch, money-grubber." Jiang Xintong rubbed her nose, but didn't continue the topic. Thirty thousand a month was something she could easily afford.

“However, your idea is also worth considering. Before we figure out how to defeat Yan Xingmeng, let’s compete with her in other subjects first.” Jiang Xintong breathed a sigh of relief. It was clear that she had been quite annoyed by this matter recently, and talking about it made her feel much better.

"I'm sleepy, let me rest for a while, don't bother me." Jiang Xintong yawned again, and felt even sleepier as she relaxed, so she slumped back onto the table.

"Hmm, then I'll head back to the classroom first." Guang Guangchen stood up, walked straight out of the classroom, and as he closed the door behind him, a bead of sweat slowly trickled down his forehead on his calm face.

That's great... my income is safe...

63. Come quick, brother!

……

"You guys have been quite active lately; I see you everywhere."

"Pretty much. Once you get the money, you have to do something worthwhile, especially since it's just a simple cheerleading squad."

"Jiang Xintong will definitely attend any course that the president attends. They really do compete with each other. I have to say, they are two lively and competitive people." Sun Weizecheng commented.

Guangchang ran into Sun Weizecheng at school and walked with him. Judging from the other's tone, it seemed that he knew all along that the two of them were not adversaries from the beginning.

"Competition is competition, as long as no dirty tricks are used, it's fine as it may. In fact, it's more intense than I expected. Jiang Xintong's grades in all aspects are quite excellent. Is this the standard for rich people...?" Guangchang originally thought that the arrogant persona would be that she was stupid in other aspects, but now it seems that he was wrong. Anyone who can regard the president as a competitor must be quite strong.

In this world, the wealthy maintain their looks, their intellect, and even manage to have romances. They must be aliens at their core...

Guangchang had long thought about expressing his envy countless times.

"The most important thing is that the president is also very enthusiastic now. She used to never go to special classes, but now she goes more often. It seems that she is not going there casually. It feels like the two of them are deliberately bumping into each other."

"Oh? Does the president also have a time when he shows his face and is combative?" Guangchang asked in surprise.

Sun Weize smiled with narrowed eyes after hearing this, and turned his head to say, "Isn't that all because of you, Guangchang Chen?"

"Me? What does that have to do with me?"

"Hmm... I remember Shan Yimo once said that you were a toy exclusively for the president. That was a bit of an exaggeration, but seeing you always hanging around Jiang Xintong, it's hard not to feel a little uncomfortable."

"Because of me?" Guangchang asked, puzzled. "But it was the president who asked me to go along with Jiang Xintong's antics. Isn't she upset about that?"

"Well, a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea. Maybe she doesn't want you to go at all. Maybe she's still angry with you. After all, you talked about what happened last time like it was goodbye forever. The president said she wasn't angry, but can she really not be angry?" Sun Weizecheng said incisively. However, Guangchang Chen could only see the other party's favorability rating. He simply saw that the other party's favorability rating hadn't dropped and mistakenly thought that the other party was no longer angry. In fact, being angry and dropping favorability ratings have no necessary connection.

"If you're angry, then be angry. You don't even tell me what you want to say directly. It's too tiring for me to guess," Guangchang said casually, shrugging his shoulders.

“Fan Chen…sigh…” Sun Weizecheng suddenly sighed, his eyes filled with helplessness as he looked at him. He then said, “I thought your special relationship with the president would spark something between you, Fan Chen. Is your heart made of iron?”

Guangchang looked at him, pursed his lips, and said, "You guys are all obsessed with romance. I've said it before, I won't date, and I believe the president feels the same way."

"As the president's first crush, shouldn't you feel great about that?"

Sun Weize's views became more radical, but Guang Guangchen didn't blame him. This was the basic setting of this world. Guang Guangchen then patted him on the shoulder. Guang Guangchen's expression remained calm, and he was not affected by the president's topic. After all, he had already learned a lot from the last incident, and when he encountered this viewpoint again, he felt like he had become more proficient.

"Shouldn't a relationship be between two people who like each other? One person pursues the other relentlessly, and the other person makes a brief compromise, and then they break up peacefully after a year or two. In my eyes, this is not a relationship at all, but torture."

Guangchang witnessed many people at this school confusing the essence of love with being a "simp." Due to the importance of the topic of love, the country has banned some books and films on the subject of love from being read or watched by minors. However, minors still fall in love out of curiosity and pursue the other party. The other party, with the mentality of "you're pretty good too," and "I don't have feelings for you, but I'll see how it goes after we get to know each other," will start all sorts of big arguments after a period of harmony.

This is not what love should be like at all. Many students in this school have distorted love itself, mistaking admiration for love, longing for love, admiration for strength for love, pity for love, and so on. These are simply too ugly to behold...

"A love of compromise..." Sun Weize's voice suddenly weakened as if it had gone silent, his gaze shifted downwards, and his melancholy aura returned, as if he were recalling something in his mind.

Ah!

Guangchang suddenly remembered that Qianwen had mentioned that Sun Weizecheng had a white moonlight who had been abroad. She had said she was going to come back to China, but hadn't she returned yet? Considering Han Junche's revelation that he was a sister-complex, this white moonlight was probably older than him. According to the exaggerated way of attracting attention in movies and TV dramas, she was probably a sophomore or junior in college.

"Sun... don't take it personally..." The melancholy prince stopped laughing, so Guangchang could only smile. The two of them were now considered to be good friends. The other had stood up for him, and although his family was wealthy, he was down-to-earth. If he was just a fun person, that was not a flaw at all.

Sun Weizecheng snapped out of his reverie, a slight smile playing on his lips, tinged with sadness, as he said, "I was originally going to encourage you to keep going, but now you're the one comforting me..."

"What's wrong? Your white moonlight hasn't come back? Or is it..."

"You know? Yes...you should know too, who else in the student council don't you know?" Sun Weize's eyes dimmed, he stopped walking, leaned against a pillar, and struck a pose.

Depressed, so depressed.

"But you don't need to worry about me. I'll take care of my own affairs."

Guangchang Chen wanted to say something more, but in the end he just nodded. Love is poison, and unrequited love is an even more potent poison.

Just then, Sun Weize's phone rang in his pocket; it was a WeChat call.

Sun Weize glanced at Shan Yimo's WeChat message. She always contacted him via WeChat. What could be so urgent that she had to call him?

He pressed the call button, held the phone to his ear, and whispered, "Hello..."

Two seconds after the other person said something, Sun Weize's face turned to shock. He even straightened up, his face showing disbelief and a hint of surprise. This smile was not like the occasional polite social smile. Guang Chen could tell that the other person was genuinely happy from the bottom of his heart.

"What's making you so happy?" Guangchang asked.

Sun Weizecheng stared blankly for a while before raising his head, his eyes trembling slightly: "She... came to the school to find me."

Oh……

It turns out it was your white moonlight who came to the school to find you.

Ok……

I really want to slap you across the face. They just came to see you, why are you getting so worked up?

Guangchang was speechless, but seeing his friend acting like a child who had regressed ten years, he gestured with his chin to indicate the location and said, "Let's go and take a look."

Sun Weize nodded slowly, his pace gradually quickening from a slow walk to a running one!

Hey! You're just like Han Junche!

What the hell are you running for!

Guangchang had no choice but to jog to catch up. Finally, after Sun Weize ran around a corner, he saw the figure that haunted his dreams in the distance.

Her simple casual clothes couldn't hide her great figure, which she had maintained since she started dancing in elementary school. Her skin was slightly dark, her hair was up, and she had a pearl earring hanging from her earlobe. The girl was holding a bouquet of flowers and stood quietly in front of the building until she saw Sun Weize's arrival and revealed a charming smile.

To be honest, it was pretty perfect; at least it completely captivated Sun Weizecheng.

Brother! Wake up!

This time, it was the girl who walked towards them step by step. Guang Chen arrived shortly after and had a strange feeling when he saw her for the first time. He couldn't remember what it was, so he thought about it again.

Until the girl walked up to Sun Weizecheng, Sun Weizecheng was so nervous that he didn't move and felt completely suppressed.

"It's been years, Xiaocheng, how are you?"

"..."

Why aren't you saying anything? Don't you want to see me?

"We haven't talked in so long, what brings you here today?"
