Chapter Seven, The Price of Loving You.

That scoundrel actually took away my most beloved Qianqian. Just wait until I get back to deal with him!" Brother Minhe seemed to pay no attention to my explanation; instead, his anger grew even more intense. "Qianqian, that guy has a fiancée, and she is the young lady of the Shen family conglomerate. He is deceiving your feelings; you cannot be involved with him!"

The second day

Luo Zihan held me tighter, burying his face in my long hair, and did not let go for a long, long time

Yoon Ah, Yoon Ah...? Could it be that the other party is our grade's top-ranked "gifted student" Jeong Yoon Ah?

Luo Zihan said淡淡地, her voice not loud, calm and devoid of warmth, her gaze sweeping across the faces of each senior sister, imparting a chilling sensation that penetrated to the bone

Since he said that, I could only smile and nod in agreement, feeling grateful for his thoughtfulness

I am sorry, I cannot do it

In an instant, my mood plummeted from the highest peak into an abyss of despair

I gritted my teeth against the pain in my cheeks, widened my eyes, and defiantly stared at them.

Dear sisters, there is no need to worry. A well-mannered man would never lay a hand on a girl. Luo Zihan shifted his gaze, sighed softly, "Of course, today's matter is not over yet. Please pass a message to Jingyu, asking her not to provoke Qianqian again. Also, please tell Jingyu that I am well aware of everything she does. If she doesn't know how to restrain herself and crosses my bottom line, the consequences may be unimaginable!"

Through that long crack in the door, I can clearly see the situation inside.

Silly girl, you are too kind, truly foolishly confused, foolishly adorable

"Luo Zihan, you..." I was somewhat at a loss for words, unable to speak.

Qianqian, don't be angry. I have taken your face into consideration and reduced the punishment for them. If we strictly follow the rules of the Imperial View Academy, they will definitely be expelled.

I have explained to Luo Zihan that the small wounds on my cheeks and corners of my mouth do not require us to cancel tonight's appointment. However, he unhesitatingly vetoed me and insisted on confirming that my injuries were not a problem before feeling at ease.

Luo Zihan gazed at me deeply with a sigh, gently raising a hand to caress my cheek and the corner of my mouth, quietly furrowing her brows, and softly asked: "Does it hurt a lot?"

"Yao, what on earth are you doing?" Xia Chengxi hurriedly asked.

Knock knock knock

Yao Qianqian

I leaned forward, trembling slightly as I held his handsome face, and whispered: "Luo Zihan, please do not pursue today's matter any further, alright? The senior sisters were merely acting on someone else's behalf, and Jingyu... Jingyu's resentment towards me is understandable; after all, I did take away her beloved. Luo Zihan, I truly am fine; this little injury is nothing, you..." Luo Zihan, I truly am fine; this little injury is nothing, you..."

It seems that today is the unluckiest day of my life, as misfortune has unexpectedly befallen me

Hello, Grandpa! I left my desk and walked in front of Luo Zihan and Grandpa. "Well, I... I will go out for a while and take a walk downstairs. You two can talk slowly."

"I believe! Of course, I believe you." I playfully winked, affectionately wrapped my arms around his neck, and whispered in his ear, "Luo Zihan, don't worry about me; I am quite strong. As long as you are by my side, I will never be defeated, do you understand? Also, I hope you won't blame Jingyu; she truly likes you and has liked you for over ten years. Even if you cannot be with her, this feeling remains sincere and precious, and should not be trampled upon lightly. Luo Zihan, if all of this is the price I must pay for liking you, then I will accept it without any regrets!"

Qianqian also agrees

Recently, Minhe has been busy filming advertisements in other locations, so it is impossible for him to be aware of what is happening at the Imperial View Academy. Moreover, very few people know about my familial relationship with Minhe, unless... ? ... Uh? Could it be Sister Shangmei?

Qianqian, I am sorry

I suddenly find it somewhat amusing; Grandfather Butler is clearly family, so how can he be considered a guest? That guy, Luo Zihan, is really quite strange; does he still need to keep his distance from Grandfather Butler?

We should apologize quickly and leave here immediately.

Get started, she will soon give in and voluntarily withdraw from school

Luò Zǐhán finally spoke, and I leaned against the door, my heart beating much faster all of a sudden.

My mind is somewhat confused, unable to keep up with the erratic thinking of the young masters. I inadvertently collided with Luo Zihan's gentle gaze, and my heart suddenly raced as I playfully stuck out my tongue at him

Honestly, I really like this old gentleman; he is amiable and easy to get along with. I wonder if Luo Zihan's father and mother would treat me with the same kindness

Luo Zihan asked again, his tone raised by a few decibels, cold and chilling, evoking a sense of heart palpitations

In close proximity, he and I gazed into each other's eyes, deeply and affectionately, as if we were immersed in a romantic and beautiful dream, experiencing a sense of illusion and ethereality

The short-haired senior sister in charge put away her fierce demeanor, as if persuading me, but I could tell that the coldness and annoyance in her eyes still existed.

Hmph! Becoming rivals with a fool, Jingyu is really pitiful. No wonder she asked for our help...

The reason is simple, I trust Luo Zihan! Luo Zihan told me to leave everything to him, and he would never allow me to suffer even the slightest harm again

Sigh, I really don't understand. How could a silly girl like you defeat Jingyu and steal Young Master Luo away?

Instantly, my tears welled up in my eyes and flowed down like a bursting dam.

Why is the temper so bad?

Yao Qianqian, are you trying to drive me to my grave before you are satisfied

Uh? ... This, this ... ... He actually said ... ...

Last night, while I was studying at the Platinum Hall, Luo Zihan invited me to go on a date to the seaside. Speaking of it, Luo Zihan and I haven't really had a proper date like a couple since we confessed our feelings to each other.

Lo Zihan, I'm sorry.

After speaking, Luo Zihan never looked at those senior sisters again, and hugged me as we passed by them.

No matter whether you truly like Lord Luo or whether Lord Luo has terminated his engagement with Jingyu, their relationship is not as simple as you imagine. Or, as you said, Lord Luo's affection is for you, not Jingyu. However, in the situation where both families are strongly pushing for their union, firmly supporting it, and not allowing Lord Luo to resist, what will be the final outcome? Yao Qianqian, you are destined to be the loser, so it's better to give up early.

So?

I know, she has explained it to me. Qianqian, my work here will be finished soon. After I return home, I need to have a serious talk with Luo Zihan, so please prepare him mentally.

I smiled awkwardly and said softly, "I don't quite understand what you mean, may I ask..."

Miss Qianqian, we shall meet again next time

Lo Zihan and I spoke in unison, understanding each other without words, and exchanged a knowing smile

A profound silence enveloped the surroundings, as if the air itself had ceased to flow, with only the shadows of the trees, illuminated by the setting sun, gently swaying on the path we walked.

I smiled and greeted them, trying to remain calm. But I could not understand what they wanted by stopping me like this

Enough, Jingyu

"Yao, stop stealing the spotlight here!" Hua | Hua | Gong | Zi Xia Chengxi blinked and said defiantly, "Hmph! Anyone with eyes can see it! I had already guessed that Zihan would ride the seven-colored clouds to pick up Qianqian."

If I teach her a few more lessons, I don't believe she will still dare to be stubborn

I shook my head with a bitter smile, suddenly feeling powerless in my argument with Luo Zihan; silence was the best choice.

The crisp ringtone of the mobile phone reached my ears, a melody that was very familiar, belonging solely to Min He.

Uh? No way, did Min Hege find out so quickly? Where did he get the information from?

I immediately opposed, giving a wry smile as I looked at the three young masters sitting opposite me, and quickly waved my hand.

In the presence of the person I cherish most, feeling his deep and gentle affection, I can only indulge myself in a blissful cry, as if the pain in my body and the grievances in my heart have become insignificant... Luo Zihan embraced me, allowing me to lean against his chest, and then slowly turned around, gazing coldly and silently at those second-year senior sisters. His expression was somewhat gloomy, his brows tightly furrowed, and his deep, pool-like black eyes were shrouded in a piercing chill. Even though the warm and bright rays of the setting sun illuminated him, they could not dissolve the powerful, frost-like coldness surrounding him.

Evidently, the conditions proposed by Luo Zihan seem too easy to his three accomplices

I always feel that the name "YoonA" mentioned by Ke Mu Li is very familiar, as if I have often heard this name

I slowly opened my eyes wide, staring in disbelief at Luo Zihan, his exquisitely proud face becoming clearer and clearer in my sight.

The door was gently pushed open, and an elderly man, over fifty years of age, walked in

My calf immediately felt sore, and my body stumbled a few times as well

Silly girl

Cough cough, cough cough

I am aware of the anguish, guilt, and helplessness he harbors within his heart, and I also know how deeply he cares for me and values me. He cannot bear to let me suffer even the slightest grievance, nor can he bear to allow me to face any danger at all

Snap

Why do you not heed my advice

I love you too, Luo Zihan

I was slightly taken aback, blinking my eyes in mild confusion. The school uniforms worn by the senior students were a refreshing light purple, which should belong to the second-year students. However, among them, there was not a single person I recognized

The short-haired senior released me, her lips curling coldly, a glimmer of icy brilliance flashing in her eyes

The three young masters smiled and told me that they were preparing to choose an auspicious day to hold a small celebration, specifically to celebrate my relationship with Luo Zihan

The short-haired senior suddenly stepped forward and grabbed my shoulder with great force, the strength in her hand causing me a moment of pain, and I couldn't help but furrow my brows

For a girl like me, who is lagging behind in grades, the top-ranked Zheng Yoon-a is like a towering mountain, an existence that is desirable yet unattainable, evoking deep envy and a hint of jealousy

Then ... ...

The short-haired senior let out a cold snort, returning to her arrogant and indifferent demeanor. She glanced at the other seniors and commanded, "Get to it. If we don't teach her a lesson, she won't know fear."

Miss Qianqian, do you have any instructions?

Qianqian! Luo Zihan held my hand, gently patted my shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Don't leave, stay here and continue with your homework. I will go to the lounge downstairs with Grandpa Butler. If you need anything, just use the internal phone to instruct the servants in the house, or come downstairs to find me"

I accepted the invitation from the Shen Foundation and am preparing to participate in one of their promotional events. During a casual conversation, the person in charge from their side brought it up. "Min Hege lowered his voice, his anger beginning to fade, 'Qianqian, the people I cherish the most are you and Liang Ma. I do not want to entrust you to anyone! That guy, Luo Zihan, is not qualified to take care of you! Qianqian, think it over again. Facing the pressure from the two major families, you will suffer greatly. I do not want to see my beloved sister get hurt.'"

Qianqian, I am truly sorry. I clearly promised you that I would never let you suffer any harm again, yet I failed to protect you. I apologize, it is all my fault! I broke up with Jingyu, and faced opposition from both families, which also gave Jingyu strong support, leading her to resort to any means to hurt you. Qianqian, please believe me, I ... ...

Since we have promised Jingyu, we must do it thoroughly

You know, both sets of parents are completely opposed to our breaking off the engagement. They have told me that they will use various methods to make you give up on Yao Qianqian and return to my side.

What?

The moment I saw the message, I immediately dialed Luo Zihan's number

Withdrawal from school

Fortunately, Luo Zihan accompanied the old man outside. If he had discovered that I violated his rules by using my phone while doing homework, his expression would surely have been frighteningly grim

After the school bell rang, I hurriedly packed my textbooks, slung my backpack over my shoulder, and rushed out of the classroom

I looked at him with tears in my eyes, smiling with gratitude and contentment

Continue speaking, continue speaking

Yao Qianqian, if you have any self-awareness, then give up on Young Master Luo

Hello, senior sisters!

Uh? When?

Luo Zihan cupped my face, the smile at the corners of his lips deepening, and he said in a low voice: "Qianqian, I love you"

Luo Zihan sat beside me, taking out a test paper from the Imperial View Academy.

C left the kitchen, and I headed straight for the staircase. At that moment, I heard faint footsteps behind me. I turned my head to see a servant holding a coffee pot just coming out of the lounge.

Having finished speaking, the short-haired senior walked away from me, indifferent as she observed the actions of others

Soon, those senior students became the subject of everyone's discussion, with many pointing fingers at them and speculating about which classmates they had bullied on campus. Ultimately, unable to bear the unusual gazes from those around them, the seniors submitted their applications for leave from school one after another and temporarily returned home to rest

He affectionately pinched the tip of my nose, his beautiful black eyes sparkling like stars: "Silly girl, if you didn't hear clearly just now, then I can say it again— I love you"

However

In my impression, Yao Qianqian is a girl who fears neither heaven nor earth. Although she is somewhat clumsy, not very bright, and tends to be muddled and impulsive in her actions, she is kind-hearted, straightforward, lovable, knows how to cherish, and understands gratitude. She is a good girl, precious like a diamond and pure like moonlight

At this point, the old butler glanced at me, and when our eyes met, he unexpectedly revealed a gentle smile.

Luo Zihan keenly noticed my unusual behavior and worriedly ruffled my hair

Why

When Min Hege hung up the phone, he was still somewhat indignant, and I could only smile wryly in resignation. Alas, after talking for so long, my throat was dry, and I really wanted to have a glass of water to soothe my throat

I hurriedly apologized and pleaded, "I am sorry, Brother Minhe, please forgive us. Sister Shangmei and I did not intend to hide this from you; she hopes to achieve her ideals through her own efforts and does not wish to rely on the family's assistance, which is why..."

He slowly raised his lips, smiled gently, gathered my hair, and said with deep affection: "Silly girl, as long as you do not blame me or get angry with me, I will feel at ease"

Ah, I am always seen through by Mu Li, it is extremely frustrating

Brother Minhe, where did you hear ... ...

Yes, Master Luo is conversing with the guests

Another slap came at me. Fortunately, I reacted quickly this time, and the hand raised by that senior struck my shoulder instead of landing on my face

Dear senior sisters, whether you call me a fool or say that I lack self-awareness, in any case... I will not give up on Luo Zihan, nor will I be intimidated by you into leaving him! Perhaps you believe that Shen Jingyu is the most suitable person for Luo Zihan, but Luo Zihan does not like Shen Jingyu. Even if they were together, how could they possibly be happy? Ahem... I truly like Luo Zihan, and this feeling will never be overshadowed by Shen Jingyu or anyone else, so...! Perhaps you believe that Shen Jingyu is the most suitable person for Luo Zihan, but Luo Zihan does not like Shen Jingyu. Even if they were together, how could they possibly be happy? Ahem... I truly like Luo Zihan, and this feeling will never be overshadowed by Shen Jingyu or anyone else, so...

When the senior sisters ruthlessly raised their hands and feet, surging towards me like a tide, a low and stern reprimand sounded above my head

Min Hege's roar came through the phone, making my ears buzz. What is wrong with him?

Among them, the most incredible are the other three young masters residing in the Platinum Pavilion. Not only did they not advise Luo Zihan, but instead they applauded and cheered, continuously fanning the flames, as if they were eager for chaos to reign in the world

At this moment, I particularly envy Ou Shaozhu's girlfriend, Zheng Yuner. That girl is not only a "gifted student" in our grade, but also a martial arts girl. It is said that her taekwondo skills are on par with Ou Shaozhu's. In the future, I must learn a few self-defense moves from Yuner.

I raised my eyebrows and looked at him, gently holding his wrist, rolling my eyes, and nodded, saying: "Hmm, much better. Actually, you are overreacting; there is really nothing to worry about. By tomorrow morning, my face will definitely be less swollen, and in two or three days, the wound at the corner of my mouth will heal. So..."

The extraordinary skills of Young Master Luo, we cannot resist even in death

Luo Zihan remained as calm and composed as ever, a faint smile playing at the corners of his lips. However, everyone had grown accustomed to his cold and aloof demeanor, which made them even more wary of the rare, exquisite smile he occasionally displayed

The senior girl at the forefront is a short-haired girl; she arrogantly raised her chin and glanced at me with disdain. The light purple school uniform caught my eye, unexpectedly somewhat dazzling.

Jingyu, listen carefully, I will say it one last time. I like Qianqian and will never give her up! As for you, I can only say I am sorry. All along, I have been tolerant of you and understanding towards you, treating you as a sister...

A few senior students approached me, slowly closing in and blocking my path

He wouldn't want to take revenge for Yao Qianqian and turn to teach us a lesson, would he

Senior sister, are you ... ...

Why? Why do you treat me this way

A white "punishment notice" was posted on the bulletin board of the Imperial View Academy, and a similar post appeared on the forum. It was an official announcement of criticism from the school, and several of the students mentioned were indeed the second-year seniors who had bullied me.

I sighed with a sense of melancholy and helplessness, and my heart gradually became filled with a bittersweet feeling

The corners of my mouth hurt severely, and there is a faint taste of rust in my mouth, which should indicate that there is bleeding at the corners of my mouth. What is most concerning is that my ears also seem to have been impacted, as I can hear nothing but a buzzing sound.

This must be Miss Qianqian, right

Ou Qiyao's expression changed slightly, and he helplessly shrugged his shoulders, staring at Ke Muli with a half-smile.

Qianqian, from the moment you stepped into the Platinum Pavilion, I was certain that you would become the most important person to Zihan

"Qianqian, I do not believe that what I said was romantic. " Luo Zihan slightly released me, his deep and affectionate gaze piercing into my eyes, "All of that is the truth, without any falsehood. When I confirmed that the person I like is you, I will take action to let you know my feelings and keep you by my side. Qianqian, you are you, not inferior to anyone! You are the girl chosen by me, Luo Zihan, the only girl who has captured my heart. Do you not believe in my judgment?" When I confirmed that the person I like is you, I will take action to let you know my feelings and keep you by my side. Qianqian, you are you, not inferior to anyone! You are the girl chosen by me, Luo Zihan, the only girl who has captured my heart. Do you not believe in my judgment?"

Boom

Currently, my academic performance is improving significantly. Completing practice questions and assignments has become quite easy, and my accuracy is steadily increasing. However, with the resit examination at the Imperial College approaching, there is not much time left for revision, and I must put in more effort.

Dear senior sisters, I understand that you want to stand up for Shen Jingyu, and I can empathize with your feelings. If this is the price I must pay for my affection for Luo Zihan, then I am willing to bear it. It's just that...

Stop wasting time talking to her, it's simply a waste of time

Wū——

I shook my head with a bitter smile, feeling a dryness in my heart, a piercing pain like needles, and my eyes involuntarily began to burn.

What should I do? I would rather give up everything I have than let go of Luo Zihan. To me, Luo Zihan is a person more important than life itself. We made a promise to always be by each other's side and never to part!

Enough

Heavens, the person that Young Master Ou likes is actually the clever and quick-witted Zheng Yoon-a!

Brother Minhe, thank you

Indeed, I have had such thoughts. Initially, I was compelled by Old Master Yao to enroll in the Imperial View Academy, and I wished to withdraw immediately, to escape from this prison.

Luo Zihan raised his hand to embrace me, his thin lips slowly curving upward, forming a faint arc, and he said in a deep voice: "Yao, I remember when Qianqian first met you, I told you not to make things difficult for her. Now that Qianqian has become my girlfriend, I will not allow you to..."

Hello, Minhe brother

At the critical moment, Luo Zihan suddenly stopped, leaving me feeling anxious, blinking my eyes rapidly, and staring at him with great anticipation

Driven by curiosity, I turned my steps towards the lounge a few meters away. Just as I was about to raise my hand to knock on the door, I noticed that it was not fully closed; perhaps the servant forgot to close it when delivering the coffee

I was stunned just by taking a glance. Finally, I understood the meaning of the servant's words. ... Indeed, there was a guest in the lounge, not the butler, but ...! ... Shen Jingyu!

Yao, if you bring YoonA to the Platinum Pavilion and let her become friends with Qianqian, I will agree to your three requests and hold a small celebration. How about it?

Those senior sisters clearly did not realize their mistakes, each wearing a hint of pride and disdain on their faces. The senior sister with short hair who hit me was particularly overbearing, arrogant, and brazen

However, their raised hands and feet could no longer be retracted; they could only continue forward, attacking my head, shoulders, and legs.

Uh? What does he want to do? The two questions are completely unrelated, they are simply going in opposite directions. What exactly is Ou Qiyao's intention!

Luo Zihan, you ... ...

How could I blame you? I am just afraid of causing you trouble and making things difficult for you

Young Master Luo, it turns out you can also speak sweet words

Thus, Luo Zihan, with his usual assertive demeanor, publicly declared that I am his designated girlfriend, his only girlfriend! The two of us are in a serious relationship, and no one is qualified to make arbitrary comments or evaluations!

I could not suppress my cough, my cheeks felt hot, and a burning pain rapidly spread across my face. The force of the slap from the other party was immense, completely catching me off guard, as if they had gathered all their strength and swung it at me with all their might, leaving me no chance to evade.

At this moment, the irreverent Young Master Ou is displaying a brilliant smile that fills me with immense fear, gazing at me with profound significance

Seeing their angry expressions, I vaguely guessed their origins and intentions

I smiled at him gratefully and nodded vigorously. How could I not believe him? Perhaps, from the moment he agreed to tutor me, I subconsciously regarded him as my support.

I have known this for a long time

The senior sisters showed signs of anger again, surrounding me all at once, their cold gazes fixed upon me. The expressions on each of their faces were as dark as storm clouds, instilling a sense of dread.

Luo Zihan raised his hand to embrace me, his warm palm gently pressing against the back of my head, he lowered his head and kissed the injured corner of my mouth, and then deeply kissed my lips

Luo Zihan insisted on taking me back to the Platinum Pavilion to treat the wound on my lip, and despite my numerous attempts to resist, I ultimately failed.

Min Hege, listen to me, their engagement was decided by the elders of both families. Luo Zihan has already proposed to break up with Miss Shen and has annulled the engagement. However, how did you come to know about these circumstances?

Young Master

What is this supposed to be

Uh? What does he mean by saying this?

From beginning to end, my answer is only this one; I do not wish to deceive my own heart, nor do I want to lose this precious relationship

"Ahem, I think that Yao is probably trying to make Yoon-er happy," said the composed Master Ke Mu-li, who had been leisurely sipping tea. He put down his cup and spoke with a gentle smile, "Zi Han publicly announced his relationship with Qian Qian, and many students in the school are paying attention to this matter. Given the relationship between Yoon-er and Yao, it is possible that someone has asked Yoon-er to help gather information about Zi Han and Qian Qian, right, Yao?"

I bounced down the stairs and poured a glass of cold juice from the kitchen. Ha! Refreshing and delicious, unparalleled; after finishing the juice, it felt as if my entire being had become uplifted.

No, no, no need!

"Min Hege, what has happened? Has the advertisement you endorsed been canceled, or has someone taken your role in a film? When we spoke on the phone yesterday, you clearly said that work was going smoothly, so why the sudden..."

Every day, I attend classes in an orderly manner. After school, I either attend tutoring sessions to do exercises or stay cooped up in my apartment drawing comics, leaving me so exhausted that I can hardly catch my breath. How can this be called "spring breeze and success"?

Uh? Is that not the case?

Qianqian, please answer me quickly

I took a deep breath and said candidly: "Yes, I like Luo Zihan, and we are in a relationship. Brother Minhe, I know there are some misunderstandings between you and Luo Zihan, and your impression of him is not very good, but in fact..."

It is possible that a few days ago, these senior students attacked me on the school forum, spreading rumors, which led to them being affected by the strong measures taken by Luo Zihan, resulting in certain warnings and punishments.

He raised his eyebrows and looked at me, smiling gently and radiantly: "So what do you think yourself?"

Indeed, Yoona is Yao's girlfriend

I apologize, senior. I am someone who tends to be stubborn. Once I make a choice, I will not give it up

Luo Zihan's response was very simple, his deep and magnetic voice carried an undeniable firmness

The elderly man, resembling a 17th-century English gentleman, replied with utmost respect: "I apologize for the sudden intrusion today, but my master and mistress have sent me to discuss a matter with you, young sir."

Ding ling ling ... ...

Although I, Yao Qianqian, may not be particularly intelligent and sometimes act impulsively, my beliefs and feelings have always been steadfast and devoted. I have long made my choice, and no matter what difficulties I encounter or what dangers I face, I will never take a step back!

Guest? What guest? Is it the butler grandfather?

As a result, our first date ended regrettably.

Luo Zihan's words came to an abrupt halt, and the lounge fell into a profound silence

Qianqian, are you feeling insecure?

"Not at all sudden!" Min He interrupted my words, speaking sternly, "Qian Qian, you honestly tell me, are you dating that guy Luo Zihan?"

Yes, I certainly understand the attitude of Luo Shen's two elders, and I am well aware of how strongly they would oppose my being with Luo Zihan... However, my rationality cannot overcome my feelings, nor can I control my heart...! ... I like Luo Zihan, and I wholeheartedly believe in him, even if it means flying into the flame, even if I will be bruised and battered, I have made my choice!

I suddenly froze, my cheeks felt as if they were being scorched by the sun, and I bashfully pounded on Luo Zihan's chest, yet my heart was overflowing with a sweetness akin to cherry jelly

Having learned a lesson from being slapped, I instinctively heightened my vigilance. As I watched my senior approaching, I immediately took a few steps back, striving to maintain a certain distance from her

Someone is knocking on the door, and it sounds particularly jarring in the silent study

Qianqian, do you feel better now

When the turmoil at the Imperial Academy arose, I, the person involved, unusually maintained silence.

Bang

Although there is an intercom in the study that allows the servants to bring water up, I do not like to order others around. I have hands and feet, so why should I trouble them?

He was taken aback, raising an eyebrow as he looked at me, the glimmering waves in his obsidian-like eyes: "Fool, why do you say that all of a sudden?"

Yao Qianqian

Indeed, I was correct in my assumption. However, this established fact has brought me unprecedented immense pressure

This time, the short-haired senior at the forefront cleared her throat twice and answered somewhat flustered: "No, that's not it. We did not bully Qianqian, we just... happened to run into each other on the road, greeted each other, and played a game, that's all"

Qianqian, are you still angry with me
