A world where love reigns supreme? This is truly chaotic!

"Ah! Your greedy gaze is on me again."

"Why do you say that, boss?"

"Tch... This is the only time you'll call me boss. How boring." Despite her words, Jiang Xintong was quite pleased. She also heard Guang Guangchen mention that he had now taken over a group of Zhenxin Society members, with more than fifty people, which was comparable to the current student council. Once the number of people increased, wouldn't Guang Guangchen and Chen Nuanxin become core members in a way?

The image of himself commanding a group of people is very similar to the mastermind that Guangchang described before. It sounds... kind of cool.

In Guangchang Chen's eyes, he realized that he was actually much better than Yan Xingmeng...

This thought suddenly lingered in Jiang Xintong's mind. She was stunned for about twenty seconds until Guang Chen called her twice before she came back to her senses, immediately lowered her head, and looked at the exercise book on the table.

What's wrong? I feel a tightness in my chest. Is it because the air conditioning in the classroom is too hot?

"Did you tell her not to come, you kind-hearted person?"

"Yes, she just got back. I told her to continue her undercover mission."

"Nonsense, you clearly didn't want Nuanxin to participate in the review, so you told her not to come back, right?" Jiang Xintong pointed it out immediately.

Guang Chen was shocked. Jiang Xintong had actually noticed his little scheme. He had always thought he was meticulous and that he was the only one who knew about it!

After a long silence, Guangchang Chen tremblingly raised his right thumb and said, "Young Miss, you are exceptionally quick-witted..."

"I noticed it a long time ago, but that warm-hearted guy wouldn't think of it because he trusts you."

"..."

Please don't say that, Guangchang will be so ashamed he'll want to crawl into a hole.

"With all that effort, you're barely a few places ahead of Warmheart? Just how much of a slacker are you?"

Um... Guangchang is going to protest about this. He still thinks that the people in this world have some special abilities. Their brains are designed to develop to a higher level when love is mentioned. They should be sent to the world of Fairy Tail. That way, the continent would be at peace long ago. It's not fair! It's so unfair!

"But I've already given it my all..." Guangchang let out a long sigh, trying to maintain the last bit of dignity of the boss, which made him study until the early hours of the morning every night.

Jiang Xintong gave a soft hum and didn't look at him, but after a while, she still had an idea and said, "Since you're trying so hard not to lose to Nuanxin, I'll give you a hand."

"Ok?"

"Because you didn't want Nuanxin to find out, you probably didn't contact Qianwen as often when you encountered problems, right?"

"Ha ha……"

"Stubborn to the core..." Jiang Xintong complained again, stealing a glance at his helpless expression, and then said, "I'm free on weekends these days, so I can tutor you. Be grateful..."

"Really...?"

No… this is not the time to say such things. Guang Chen stopped in time, then looked at Jiang Xintong’s awkward expression. Her emotions were written all over her face, but she still had to pretend. Being proud and aloof is really an interesting trait. Guang Chen laughed and nodded repeatedly, saying, “Hmm! Thank you. Then I will accept your offer. As long as I can surpass Nuan Xin every time, that’s fine.”

"You really are very competitive, aren't you?"

"Haha, yes."

……

"What did you say? What do you mean you helped me make an appointment with the president? Why don't you listen to what you're saying?" Guang Chen's suspicious gaze was like needles pricking Chen Nuanxin's skin. Chen Nuanxin panicked and pressed her body tightly against the wall, her forehead already sweating.

"Ah, uh, um..." Chen Nuanxin waved her hands wildly. Actually, she couldn't explain it clearly. In that atmosphere, she just found it hard to refuse.

Oh, you inspired others with your passionate words, and then you refuse their first request after they've cheered them up? That doesn't make much sense no matter how you look at it, does it? Besides, Chen Nuanxin was so immersed in that atmosphere that she subconsciously agreed, and she agreed quite firmly.

"Speak." Guang Guangchen reached out and pinched Chen Nuanxin's cheek. Although Chen Nuanxin was now a core member of the student council's F6, everyone in the class knew that Guang Guangchen was her superior. They had gotten used to seeing her, let alone paying attention to her.

Chen Nuanxin squinted, looking distressed, and mumbled, "I'm sorry, boss."

"Have you really been assimilated after going to the student council a few times?"

"No, that's not it! I just noticed that the president seems to be in a bad mood lately, so I wanted to cheer her up."

"She's in a bad mood again? She's often in a bad mood, so just leave her alone and let her think about it for a while. She doesn't need you to comfort her."

"No, this time the situation is a little different."

“Warm-hearted, you don’t understand. It’s all the same. Yan Xingmeng is just bored and looking for fun with me. The more I react, the happier she is. Don’t be fooled by her.” Guangchang Chen spread his hands, his tone helpless.

"But this time I really feel..."

Guangchang shook his head. Having confirmed it countless times, he knew the outcome all too well: the president would not change; she was still the same person, the high and mighty president.

Chen Nuanxin was naturally willing to trust her boss's judgment, but when she recalled her conversation with the president, she still felt something was off. Ah, she had witnessed a girl like Cao Ruoyu once, so why would she doubt her boss's judgment now?

Chen Nuanxin shook her head, nodded heavily, and said, "Boss, I was wrong..."

"It's alright, you'll learn from your mistakes, you'll see in time," Guangchang Chen said earnestly.

"Hmm... Shall we go learn from the boss for a while?"

"Hey, there's no rush."

91. I can't compare to her!

……

Since he had plans with Jiang Xintong and Yan Xingmeng over the weekend, Guang Guangchen decided to ask Jiang Xintong for her opinion on having another person join the meeting. Jiang Xintong was quite surprised when she heard the news and asked questions such as whether the two of them often went out together before, but Guang Guangchen denied all of them.

The weekend was originally planned as a study session, so having Yan Xingmeng there wouldn't be a problem. If Yan Xingmeng minds this, it's perfectly fine if she doesn't want to come.

"Sure," Yan Xingmeng replied readily on WeChat.

It really works...

For Yan Xingmeng, people are a much higher priority than things.

As for why I should heed the promise that Nuanxin agreed to, well... cough cough, as the leader, it's perfectly normal for me to stand up for my subordinates at crucial moments, regardless of whether they are right or wrong. It's not because I feel even a little bit guilty towards Nuanxin.

Universities let students go home at 4:30 on Fridays. Junior and senior high school students usually have two days off per week, and there are very few extracurricular classes scheduled on weekends. As Guangchang Chen said before, people only choose to date when they have too much free time. Adults in society generally maintain a regular eight-hour workday, and they are paid double for overtime. They will spend more time on their relationships and lives.

People like Guang Guangchen, who already consider one day off a week to be normal, are looked down upon by everyone in society. Even Nuanxin shook her head when she heard this, saying that she simply couldn't accept one day off a week. But what Guang Guangchen didn't say was that if you add the idea that 996 is also a blessing... Thinking about it carefully, a world that prioritizes love does have its own advantages.

……

Sunday. It's a sunny and beautiful day. We'll go for a walk together in the morning and then study in the afternoon.

Hey! It's not because Guangchang was lazy, but because he had already studied with Jiang Xintong for half a day yesterday, Saturday. After such intense studying, it would be a good choice to relax his brain and take a walk the next day.

In front of a shaved ice shop on the outskirts of a shopping mall, Guangchang Chen sat on a plastic chair, slurping a cup of cola smoothie. Visually, it was quite magical; he took out a bottle of iced drink, tapped it with chopsticks, and the beverage inside visibly turned into a smoothie. Ugh... eating ice on such a cold day, after only a couple of bites, my head started to hurt...

December is fast approaching, and the real winter is just around the corner. The weather forecast says it will snow in another week. Guangchang Chen has never seen a heavy snowfall before. The snow that doesn't even reach his ankles is probably the limit of what he has ever seen. It's the kind of situation where you sleep in, and the sanitation workers have already cleared the snow off the streets by the next day. You have to accept getting up early again to go to school.

Guangchang was wearing a long black windbreaker, jeans, and the dark green long scarf that Jiang Xintong had given him. After a few practice sessions, he had already learned how to tie the long scarf. The feeling of being completely wrapped up around his neck, without letting in any wind, was so comfortable...

Now, several months later, Guang Guangchen measured his height again and found that he had grown a bit taller, reaching 179 cm. He was just a little short of being satisfied, since that centimeter wasn't visually noticeable, but it always felt like it could make a big difference.

The time I had arranged to meet the two girls was approaching, so I waited a while longer. In the distance, I saw Jiang Xintong running towards me with her head down. Her brown boots were flying as she walked, and she was wearing a long beige wool coat and a felt hat. Her cheeks were slightly flushed by the wind, but she was still full of collagen. That's the advantage of being young!

Jiang Xintong came over, smoothed her bangs with her hand, and was surprised to see Guang Guangchen eating ice in this cold weather. She exclaimed, "Are you crazy? Eating shaved ice in this weather?"

"I just really like this texture..."

Where is Yan Xingmeng?

"Not yet."

"Hmph! What an unpunctual fellow." Jiang Xintong pulled out a chair and sat down in the seat opposite her.

"That's not the case. There are still twelve minutes until the agreed time."

"Huh? Why are you still taking Yan Xingmeng's side?" Jiang Xintong's sharp little eyes swept over.

Guangchang quickly realized his position, nodded heavily, and echoed, "The president is really too wicked!"

"Hmm~" Jiang Xintong is not scheming at all. Although she is very smart, she is very transparent. Guang Chen has no trouble communicating with her.

That's great, it's just that it's not one of those old-fashioned tsundere characters. If a character like Taiga Aisaka from Toradora were to appear nowadays, I'm afraid more and more readers would find it unacceptable, since she's already calling the male protagonist an inferior dog from the very beginning...

"Have you memorized all the key points from yesterday?"

"I remember most of it."

"I'm going to do a spot check this afternoon."

"no problem."

Looking at Guang Yuchen's confident demeanor, Jiang Xintong couldn't help but slap him in the face: "If you're going to be confident, you should at least be in the top thirty of your grade before you can be confident, right? At your current level..."

Hmm? Miss Jiang is more aggressive than usual today.

Just then, from the other side, where the road connects to the shopping mall street and there is a circular fountain, Yan Xingmeng came out from behind. She was wearing a fitted knitted top and a black and gray color-blocked skirt. The belt at her waist was showing from one side. The aura she exuded made it hard for people to take their eyes off her.

When their eyes met, Yan Xingmeng was the first to step forward and greet them, first Jiang Xintong, and then Guangchang.

Jiang Xintong was already used to it and responded calmly, but her gaze fell on the two people in front of her who were also dressed in black... They looked quite compatible in the picture, so Jiang Xintong looked away and didn't want to pay attention to it.

Then her arm was suddenly put around her, and she was greeted by Yan Xingmeng's kind smile. Yan Xingmeng said, "Let's go for a walk together this morning, Xintong."

Isn't that a bit too enthusiastic...?

In fact, Jiang Xintong and Yan Xingmeng's relationship was originally just a special friendship, or rather, this way of getting along was more like the rhythm that the two of them should have. On the contrary, Guang Guangchen was completely left out, but Guang Guangchen didn't care about it. He didn't even need to come up with any topics.

Jiang Xintong dressed cutely, while Yan Xingmeng dressed maturely. The two walked together, with Guangchang following behind, keeping track of the time. The two girls wandered through different shops. Girls really do enjoy shopping. In the end, they had lunch at a Western restaurant, and the food was pretty good.

Perhaps Guang Guangchen didn't realize that Jiang Xintong wanted to call him several times along the way, but Yan Xingmeng interrupted her each time. She felt that Guang Guangchen was always following behind and couldn't join in, which might make him feel uncomfortable. So, she tried to ask him to participate several times, but failed. So, she could only make up for it by having him order more food at the dinner table.

Yan Xingmeng rested her chin on her hand, her fingertips lightly touching her cheek. How could she not see this? But she didn't say anything, just watched quietly.

"My milk tea has arrived."

"Then I'll go get it," Guangchang Chen said.

"No, you can just wait here." Jiang Xintong felt a little guilty for not talking to Guang Chen for more than an hour, so she decided not to let him run errands and went herself. She then turned around and left.

Guangchang Chen and Yan Xingmeng sat down on a bench to wait. They glanced at the time and realized they needed to prepare to start the study session. Then the day would be over.

"The weather isn't too cold today, is it?" Yan Xingmeng suddenly said.

"Yeah, today was alright."

"How did Guangchang spend his day at home yesterday?"

"study."

"So eager to learn? Then let's have another study session today. Isn't Guangchang a little too enthusiastic about studying?"

"If you don't have the talent, make up for it with hard work. It's the same old method."

"Achoo." Yan Xingmeng sneezed softly at this moment.

“You just said it wasn’t cold, but I think you’ll still be cold wearing this,” Guang Guangchen said, but he didn’t make any further moves. This made Yan Xingmeng puff out her cheeks slightly, and her gaze moved down to the scarf around Guang Guangchen’s neck. She said, “Shouldn’t a gentleman take off his scarf and let me wear it at this time?”

"Don't you feel cold being a gentleman?" Guangchang Chen made a statement that was typical of a straight man.

"Hmph!" Yan Xingmeng snorted softly, slightly dissatisfied.

Guangchang sighed softly and explained, "It's not that I don't want you to wear it, but this scarf was a gift from Jiang Xintong. It's not appropriate for you to wear something given to me by someone else, can you understand?"

"A scarf Xintong gave me?" Yan Xingmeng was taken aback. In her memory, Guangchang Chen had worn this scarf almost every day for the past two weeks, including at that event. Yan Xingmeng had always assumed that he had bought it himself...

"Yes, that's why I can't share it with you. How about this, you can just buy one at a nearby jewelry store."

"Oh? Guangchang, are you going to give me a scarf?" Yan Xingmeng smiled at him with narrowed eyes.

"Didn't I use the word 'buy'...?"

"My birthday is next month, so consider this an early birthday present for me~"

"real or fake?"

"Maybe~"

"You guy!"

The jewelry store was located on the north side of the same floor. The two changed their destination slightly, told Jiang Xintong on WeChat, and then started shopping for various scarves in the jewelry store. The prices were quite reasonable, with the most expensive being only three or four hundred yuan. Guang Chen wouldn't be so stingy with birthday gifts.

Meanwhile, Jiang Xintong, who was waiting in the milk tea shop, finally got the milk tea she wanted. Her phone vibrated, and when she checked WeChat, she saw that the two of them were currently in a nearby jewelry store. These two were shopping in a jewelry store? Jiang Xintong was a little surprised, and then carried the milk tea to their destination.

Upon returning to the third floor, I looked around but couldn't find them. Where did those two go?

Jiang Xintong frowned slightly. After turning the corner, when she turned her head to the left, she finally saw Guang Guangchen and Yan Xingmeng. The two were standing in front of a shelf, chatting and laughing. Yan Xingmeng had a light gray scarf around her neck, while Guang Guangchen was taking off the scarf around his neck to demonstrate for her.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Xintong was suddenly stunned for a while. Guang Chen and Yan Xingmeng's relationship was better than she had always imagined. Yes, after all, they had known each other before she did. Jiang Xintong felt a tightness in her chest again. At the same time, she recalled what Wei Zecheng had said.

"You know very well what your primal motivation is for ordering him around, right? And the chairman hasn't given him a single penny since he met him..."

92. We have a special relationship!
