After the man in the suit left, Ai Xiaoxing placed the flowers at the back of the classroom.
By then, an entire row at the back was piled high with flowers, each more beautiful than the last.
"Uncle, the flowers are full again today. You can come over now."
After a while, a security guard nearing fifty, yet with a head of completely white hair, walked over.
"I've already spoken with the flower shop owner. They'll buy them back at half price. Just go straight there; you don't need to negotiate. I estimate this batch will bring in around two thousand."
"Thank you, girl. You're such a good person."
"Don't thank me. Your wife's illness will definitely get better."
"Haha~ I came to terms with it long ago. If she goes, I'll follow her."
After the man in the suit returned home in a daze, the more he thought about it, the more unwilling he became.
Which damn man had made the campus belle take the initiative to ask him out?
How could he be so shameless?
I refuse to accept this!
After saying that, his expression suddenly turned ferocious. He opened the campus confession wall and hammered away at the keyboard.
"Fellow bros, does anyone understand? I ran into a real piece of trash today. He actually made Ai Campus Belle take the initiative to ask him out..."
When a man started acting like a drama queen, women had nothing on him.
The man in the suit posted his little essay, and it immediately sparked heated discussion.
Quite a few students had even put up a bounty.
The reward had gone from a bag of spicy strips and a packet of instant noodles at the start to the huge sum of one thousand yuan.
Everyone had only one goal: find that man and tear him apart!
The campus belle whom everyone had failed to ask out over four years had turned around and thrown herself at you?
Who could stand that?
But Xu Yi had no idea that he had already found himself at the center of the storm.
After collecting Ai Xiaoxing's red packet, he started farming.
Teammate: Old geezer, why aren't you buying the Electric Blade?
Eel Can Also Kill People: The Electric Blade ran out of electricity. It's charging.
Teammate: Then buy the Witch's Orb.
Eel Can Also Kill People: I washed it, and it hasn't dried yet.
Teammate: Our jungler is a bull.
Eel Can Also Kill People: Where's the wild bull?
Teammate: "..."
"Ugh~ Boring."
Xu Yi sighed. After experimenting several times, the facts proved that—
he couldn't obtain Emotion Points online.
Money was hard to earn, and shit was hard to eat.
Xu Yi prepared to go out and eat with the abstract girl.
At that moment, Wang Liang shouted excitedly, "Holy shit, Ai Campus Belle took the initiative to ask a strange man out to eat?"
Liu Yu: "She can do that~ She even made the girl take the initiative. Is he still a man?"
Xu Yi blinked. What was going on?
Although beauty was nothing more than a cloud to him, he did know a little about Ai Campus Belle.
Pure and untainted, elegant in manner, and talented in many fields.
She was not only the goddess of the Music Department, but also number one on the school's campus belle rankings.
One could say she had quite an exciting life.
Of course, all of that was hearsay.
Xu Yi had never met her. He had only seen her photos on the confession wall.
Still, Xu Yi was somewhat surprised that she was doing this so close to graduation.
Was she giving up her image? Not even pretending anymore?
Huh? Why hadn't he seen her when he went to substitute-teach today? Had she taken leave?
Wang Liang smashed his ten-yuan keyboard to pieces. "Damn it, which Rich Bro is snatching our goddess from us again?"
Xu Yi: "What if he isn't snatching her? What if the campus belle is simply throwing herself at him?"
Negative Emotion Points +50
Liu Yu: "I'm so jealous! If the campus belle appeared in front of me, I wouldn't even dare raise my head to look at her. Yet Rich Bro is eating with her."
Wang Liang: "If I catch that Rich Bro, I'll definitely... kneel and lick him! I'll lick him, I'll lick him, lick..."
Xu Yi made the subway grandpa meme expression. These two were impossible to look at.
Xu Yi immediately consoled them, "Calm down. Don't embarrass yourselves. Why are you licking? It's not like he's a jailer."
Liu Yu was stunned. "Xu Yi, aren't you angry?"
"What do I have to be angry about? With no woman in my heart, my blade will naturally become divine!"
"True. You're practically a crown prince now. You're already different from us." Liu Yu sighed, his expression somewhat melancholy.
Everyone's relationships had changed. He really missed two years ago.
If only time could flow backward. I'd definitely lick Xu Yi like crazy and become his number-one lackey.
It was all because I had licked the wrong person back then. Was Yang De even a damn man?
After licking him for so long, I ended up becoming a prison hero.
"That's enough, brothers. I have to continue with my part-time job." Xu Yi said.
The two of them had known about Xu Yi's part-time job for a long time, so they didn't ask further.
They simply regarded it as one of the young master's little hobbies.
After finishing this job, he would eat with Uncle Li that evening.
Xu Yi had just reached the door when his message alert rang again.
It was actually from Yu Xue. This surprised Xu Yi greatly.
Everyone at school knew Yu Xue as an iceberg.
Apart from music, she was cold toward everything else.
She wore the same icy expression toward boys, girls, and even the school leaders.
Her username was much more normal than the abstract girl's.
Flame Snow: You there?
Fiercely Lick Cockroach Jailer: ?
Flame Snow: I'd like to treat you to a meal... Are you coming?
Xu Yi took a deep breath. What was wrong with these girls?
Were they not even bothering to maintain their personas anymore?
Xu Yi replied without the slightest hesitation.
Fiercely Lick Cockroach Jailer: I'm not coming.
Flame Snow: Why?
Not coming meant not coming. Why ask why?
Although Xu Yi thought that, he didn't dare send it.
Fiercely Lick Cockroach Jailer: Teacher, I'm really busy. I'm about to graduate, so I don't have time. I still have several papers to write. (Peppa Pig riding a horse.jpg)
Dare you look directly at the sun?!
Flame Snow: Then when will you have time?
This girl was never going to let it go. Was her emotional intelligence really that low?
Didn't she know that in the adult world, not agreeing directly meant rejection?
Fiercely Lick Cockroach Jailer: Teacher, I'll definitely ask you out for a meal once I finish my papers.
Heh heh~ Whether I finish them or not is entirely up to me.
I make several yuan a minute. You don't place an order, yet you want to ask me out to eat?
Go eat shit!
After sending the message, Xu Yi simply stopped checking her reply.
He turned off his phone and headed toward the school gate.
When he arrived at the school gate, he found that nobody had come.
He was used to it. Girls were always slower; that was normal.
An hour for makeup, half an hour to change clothes.
Only then did Xu Yi suddenly notice that there were far more people at the school gate.
A large group of boys were loitering around the gate, some deliberately and some seemingly by chance, their eyes darting everywhere.
Xu Yi immediately perked up. As a Great Xia native, his bloodline awakened on the spot.
There was something juicy to watch! Let's go~
"Bro, what's the gossip? I'm curious."
"West's melon?"
"Heh~ You think you're funny?"
"There's no gossip."
"Then why are you all gathered here?"
"The campus belle is at the school gate. Didn't you see the confession wall? She's waiting for that person so they can go eat together.
"We were really curious, so we came here early to wait. We want to see who that damn man is."
"Are you all really this bored?" Xu Yi couldn't help complaining.
"Heh~ Then you don't know how beautiful the campus belle is. Just standing there is pleasing to the eye."
A bunch of simps. They were beyond saving.
Xu Yi sighed. When would simps ever stand up?
Just watch. Your bro is going to eat with his boss.
As soon as Xu Yi finished muttering, he felt the hem of his clothes being tugged from behind.
Xu Yi turned around and saw an exceptionally delicate-looking girl.
She lowered her head shyly, her little mouth puckered.
"Senior Xu Yi, I..."
"Then let's go eat."
Surprise Points +10
"Huh? Eat. Senior Xu Yi, you're being so proactive? But I haven't put on makeup yet. I'm not ready..."
Xu Yi's face went blank. No, wait, what the hell were you calling me for?
You asked me out to eat, but you weren't ready.
Hearing Xu Yi say that, Jiayi's eyes nearly filled with tears. "I... I didn't call you. I can go without makeup."
Xu Yi was stunned. "You weren't the one who asked me out to eat?"
"No."
"Xu Yi!"
A melodious voice rang out.
Ai Xiaoxing gritted her pearly teeth in anger. I had waited for you in the cold wind at the gate.
Yet you turned around and started flirting with a girl.
Scumbag!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~
Immediately afterward, countless gazes from the surrounding people turned toward Xu Yi.
