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

As she spoke, Jiang Xintong unfolded the piece of paper with both hands, revealing it to be a check. Wait a minute, there it is!

"You wrote this yourself, right? Well then, I'll give you a hundred million! Now! Be my boyfriend!"

What the hell!

It was that check!

Guangchang's eyes immediately widened.

181. You will definitely regret it!

The memory instantly pulled him back to the scene of his first meeting with the young lady. He had only filled in the check that was handed to him for fun—one hundred million, a full eight zeros…

The number sounded so grand that it didn't move Chen at all, because it was such an abstract unit of measurement. He was more surprised that the young lady still remembered this matter, and... what was wrong with the young lady at this moment...?

"Speak! Answer!" Jiang Xintong shouted again, her voice still trembling, and her tone was tearful. Her eyes clearly showed that she had just been crying. Guangchang Chen stood there motionless, and Jiang Xintong waited for his reaction.

in fact……

Jiang Xintong didn't think the 100 million was of any use. Although Guang Chen was a money-grubber, he didn't really care about the money at all. The reason she took out the money was simply to vent her emotions, a childish mentality similar to a child asking an adult for candy. After seeing that check on her desk, she had kept it with her ever since, all for this moment, a step that was not in her best interest. Rather than taking it a step further, it was more like a step towards severing ties.

Guangchang must be very disappointed in himself if he hears him say such things, right?

That way, the two of them can...

Jiang Xintong slowly raised her eyes to meet Guang Guangchen's gaze. It was a gaze she had to face, and she was even prepared to be verbally criticized by him. She was about to lose a close friend...

However, when her gaze fell on Guang Guangchen's face, she did not see the disappointed look she had expected. On the contrary, Guang Guangchen, who had been a little tense, suddenly relaxed and looked at her with great tenderness.

No, it shouldn't be like this. You should have started to hate me after hearing what I said...

Jiang Xintong couldn't hold back any longer. She pursed her lips and tried her best, but she couldn't help but cry. Large tears streamed down her face. She kept her mouth closed but still made sobbing noises. Then she took a step forward.

Guang Chen didn't say a word. Just like comforting a child, he let Jiang Xintong lean gently on his shoulder and cry. He gently patted her back with his right hand, his eyes still gentle.

It seems that the young lady has experienced some great pressure, Guangchang can sense that. It seems that the young lady is doing this in order to make him hate her, Guangchang can also sense that, but none of this is the young lady's true intention, Guangchang can also sense that.

So since it's fake, what reason does Guangchang have not to comfort the young lady? Show some usefulness, Guangchang.

"Why, why won't you give me an answer..." Jiang Xintong's aggrieved and sobbing voice came from Guang Guangchen's arms. Guang Guangchen didn't speak, but just took a deep breath and let the young lady cry in his arms.

After calming herself down for about three or four minutes, Jiang Xintong's sobs gradually subsided. She finally gently pushed Guang Yuchen away, but didn't look at him. Instead, she turned her head away, seemingly having calmed down.

"Sorry……"

"It's alright." Guangchang Chen maintained his gentle smile. If it were any other arrogant person, they probably wouldn't be able to utter a single word of apology, but the young lady was different. She was special. She wasn't someone who hadn't grown. In fact, Guangchang Chen saw many strengths in her that he could never reach. It's just that he often compared his own weaknesses to other people's strengths, which made him feel very hurt. Admitting his mistakes and correcting them was already commonplace for the young lady. This was a quality that most ordinary people would find hard to possess, let alone a willful young lady.

So the young lady has already tried her best. To be honest, Guang Chen just can't bring himself to dislike her...

Guangchang then comforted the young lady and helped her sit down on a stone bench on one side of the corridor. It was getting dark, but what did it matter how much time it took?

"What exactly happened?" Guang Chen still didn't understand, and could only deduce from the way she came that perhaps she had chatted with Yan Xingmeng about random things again.

But what Jiang Xintong said next immediately moved Guangchang. She sniffed, lowered her head, and whispered, "I saw it, you and Shan Yimo..."

Guangchang was shocked and realized that he had been worried that the young lady would go berserk upon hearing the news, but he did not expect it to happen in this way.

"Are you angry?" Guangchang asked with a sly smile, his tone slightly cheeky as he said it.

Jiang Xintong glared at him, her haughty side returning, but she was still sobbing, saying, "Of course I'm angry! How dare you hide it from me and be with Shan Yimo! You don't care about me at all!"

"Heaven and earth bear witness, how could I not have cared about you, Miss? You've always been someone I consider extremely important." When Guangchang said this last sentence, there was a slightly strange quality to it.

To what extent is it important?

"Ok?"

"I'm asking you, to what extent is it important?" Jiang Xintong suddenly turned around and asked Guangchang.

"Um... it's something like friendship and companionship," Guangchang said truthfully.

"So, you don't like it?" Having broken through her psychological defenses, Jiang Xintong is now speaking directly. Now, she might be able to voice any doubts she has!

"Well...I'm afraid..." Guang Chen suppressed his true feelings. If he spoke too bluntly, the young lady might not be able to accept it. At this moment, he had to be tactful, as tactful as possible...

"Hey, Guangchang."

"Hmm?" Guangchang Chen was just wondering when he saw the young lady move her body towards him and then actually hug his left arm!

"Then you should like me."

It was an incredibly soft and sweet voice, even with a coquettish tone! This completely startled Guangchang.

No, you're not some pampered young lady! What kind of attitude is this?! How could you abandon your carefully constructed persona like this?!

"Please, please like me, okay?" Jiang Xintong launched her attack with a sweet and soft attitude, her eyes revealing expectation and joy as she looked at Guang Yuanchen, continuing her coquettish act.

"Young Miss, are you out of your mind?"

"Yeah! Say what you want, I like you now."

"You'll definitely regret it when you calm down tomorrow."

"Will not."

"You will be extremely ashamed."

"No, just tell me you like me!"

Guangchang was deeply shaken. He slowly exhaled and said, "Miss, there are many things you don't know, and I can be frank with you. I do have feelings for Shan Yimo right now, and the president does too. I don't deny that I like two people at the same time. I don't know what will happen in the future. But as for you, Miss, I don't deny that I have feelings for you. Someone like you might even be a killer move for me. I'm quite susceptible to that. But feelings are feelings, and liking someone is liking someone. They're not the same thing. If I were to say I like someone, it might just be... a fleeting moment, a fleeting flutter of the heart. You should understand. So, Miss, I absolutely cannot give you the answer you want right now."

"..."

Jiang Xintong remained silent for a long time, about half a minute, before finally speaking: "So that means I'm currently in third place in your heart, is that right?"

"It depends on the nature of the relationship..."

"Regarding relationships between men and women."

"Yes," Guangchang Chen also admitted frankly.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xintong immediately relaxed and was no longer so nervous. She then stood up, turned her back to Guang Guangchen, and the next second, she suddenly turned around, pointing her right index finger directly at Guang Guangchen, and said loudly, "That means I still have room for success, right? I'm just one step away from winning his heart, right!"

"Uh...yes."

"Okay, then I'll definitely make you fall for me! Just you wait!" Jiang Xintong said, then glanced at the cake placed next to the bench and gave the order, "Eat the cake, then go home."

"Yes, Miss." Guangchang was taken aback for a moment, but then immediately saluted.

"Humph."

"Young Miss, will you be coming to school tomorrow?"

"Why not?"

I'm afraid you'll regret it.

"How ridiculous, how could I regret it?"

……

Jiang Xintong regretted it.

Jiang Xintong covered her face and sat up in bed, recalling how she had actually acted coquettishly towards Guang Chen yesterday, even asking him to like her. Ugh! She was completely insane! She couldn't stand it!

I think I'll take the day off today...

As for the young lady's situation, Guang Chen was not surprised at all. Yesterday's soft and sweet young lady was a kind of "what's the use" attitude under special circumstances. The extreme cuteness appeared, which was also a good experience. Actually... it was quite cute.

Guangchang couldn't help but smile knowingly when he recalled it.

"Hey boss, what's got you so happy?" Chen Nuanxin, who sat next to him, asked.

"Ah? Oh, I just witnessed a truly spectacular scene. I can't help but sigh. Humans really are complex creatures." Guangchang nodded and said.

"What a wonderful scene..." Chen Nuanxin thought it was also wonderful when she saw her boss holding hands with Shan Yimo yesterday. So it turns out that her boss likes Shan Yimo's type, who is aloof, tall, and academically excellent... Well... isn't that the complete opposite of her?

When Chen Nuanxin thought of this, she felt like she had lost half her soul.

Guangchang noticed Nuanxin's unusual behavior and asked, "What's wrong? You seem unhappy."

"Does the boss hate me?"

"Hmm? What makes you say that?"

"Because I'm short and have a carefree personality, and I'm not as good as you, boss..." Chen Nuanxin swayed her body and said dejectedly like a lost soul.

"Hahaha, how could I dislike you? In my heart, you're also a very important person." Guangchang laughed heartily, then reached out and rubbed Nuanxin's cheeks, giving them a quick touch-up. Nuanxin's face was radiant again. Similarly, in Lonely Rock, he smoothed out Little Lonely's overly frightened face, making her look radiant again, although her chin seemed a bit too sharp...

Their interactions were commonplace in the class, and no one would have any improper thoughts about their relationship. Boys and girls would pass by without even glancing at them, because it was all too normal, and there was absolutely no possibility between them.

"Guang Chen, someone is looking for you at the back door of the classroom."

Hearing the familiar message, Guangchang turned around and saw a familiar person at the back door of the classroom.

Got it, target! Botanical Garden.

182. The President's Offensive

I know the way so well, I can walk it to the botanical garden with my eyes closed after so many trips. Seeing Yan Xingmeng once a week is a regular thing. Counting the time, this is probably the last time I'll see her at school. After the final exams next week, it will be winter vacation, and all those things will be things to do during the vacation.

Furthermore, Guangchang was also thinking about something else. Yan Xingmeng was only contacting him at this time because it must be about the people around her. Yi Mo and the young lady were definitely things to mention. Don't be fooled by Yan Xingmeng's seemingly carefree and casual demeanor; she actually cares a lot about her friends. He really hoped she wouldn't hold him responsible for making the young lady cry, even though it was true...

Guangchang quickly arrived at the entrance of the botanical garden. It had been a while since he had been there. He put his hand on the doorknob, turned the knob, and pushed the door open. Immediately, a warm current rushed over him. Ah, so comfortable. This cold weather would probably last for another two or three months. There are only two seasons in a year, summer and winter.

At this time, Yan Xingmeng would usually stay at her job and wait...

Guang Chen scanned the area. Hmm? He didn't see Yan Xingmeng at the main table. Had she not arrived yet? He walked towards the central platform. As soon as he stepped onto the stairs, he heard a faint sound of movement. He then walked around the main table and saw Yan Xingmeng lying on a simple recliner. She was lying on her side, her long black hair cascading down her neck, ribs, and waist. Her slender figure revealed a noticeable curve in the skin of her waist. Her eyes were closed, and she was breathing softly and evenly.

Yan Xingmeng was taking a nap.

Even when the sun rises in the west, she still takes a nap.

Are you too tired?

Guangchang had always thought of her as a strong woman, someone with outstanding abilities and boundless energy. But now, the way she sleeps is not much different from Nuanxin. Nuanxin doesn't sleep soundly either; she only snores softly. If she doesn't talk, who would know that kind of person she is?

Hey.

Guang Chen then sat on the small sofa next to him, waiting quietly, pretending that Yan Xingmeng was working. He took out his phone, scrolled through videos, and checked every half minute to see if Yan Xingmeng was awake.

I moved the phone away, but she didn't wake up.

When he moved his phone away again, Yan Xingmeng was looking up at him, staring intently at him.

This startled Guang Chen so much that his phone almost jumped out of his hand, and he quickly grabbed it.

Seeing that the desired effect had been achieved, Yan Xingmeng smiled, used her right hand to support herself as she slowly rose to her feet, rubbed her eyes with her left hand, and yawned, saying, "You've come..."

She stretched and yawned, revealing her graceful waistline... Since the botanical garden was heated, Yan Xingmeng wasn't wearing her school uniform jacket. With her arms outstretched, her skin was exposed again. Guang Chen glanced at her and immediately looked away, saying, "If you're sleepy, then you can continue sleeping."

“Since you’re here, Guangchang, I’m naturally full of energy. Now, ha~ let me catch my breath.” Yan Xingmeng seemed quite sleepy, with one eye open and the other closed, slowly turning her neck.

"If only someone could massage my shoulders right now..."

"?" Guangchang's mind was filled with questions. After a few seconds, he sighed softly and said, "There are only the two of us here. Why don't you just say what you want?"

After saying that, he stood up, went behind Yan Xingmeng, and helped her massage her shoulders.

“People don’t like being disciplined. Always obeying orders will only make people more rebellious. So, instead of me asking you to do it, wouldn’t it be better for you to do it for me voluntarily? I’d be very touched, Guangchang.” Yan Xingmeng turned her head and smiled with narrowed eyes.

He said it all with such a serious expression.

Guangchang pinched Yan Xingmeng's neck, pressed his thumb against her jawbone, and pushed her head back as she turned it, saying, "If you were so thoughtful, you shouldn't have told me all this. Wouldn't that have negated the effect? ​​Besides, my massage might not have been effective, so don't have too high expectations."

"I didn't have high hopes to begin with~" Yan Xingmeng kicked her legs back and forth playfully, and before Guangchang Chen could reply, she continued, "And, how could I not be honest with Guangchang Chen, who has always been so sincere to me?"

Wow... you're saying this... only Yan Xingmeng could say something so cheesy. She doesn't need any preamble; she can get right on track.

Furthermore, they reversed the order of the answers, giving me the feeling of being given a slap followed by a treat. Could they still be scolding me?

Guang Guangchen couldn't discern the truth, and the cheat code he was given was rather useless. Although the favorability ratings were all correct, Guang Guangchen still had to rely on himself to guess people's hearts.

"Hmph, so it seems the president didn't call me here today to put pressure on me. Congratulations."

Since Yan Xingmeng wanted to speak this way, Guangchang Chen had no choice but to respond in the same way.

Yan Xingmeng frowned slightly, gave a haughty snort, and said, "Trying to get away with this so quickly?"

"A direct show of force will only work on me. Or should I go back to the door and come in again?"

"Guangdong Chen, you've really gotten bolder."

"Hmm? Shouldn't you call me Guangchang Chen? Isn't this the kind of 'romantic' thing you mentioned before?" Guangchang Chen replied with a faint smile.
