Why are other people's relationships so sweet?

"Alright, Wang Lao Er, you have such a pretty girlfriend and you didn't introduce her to us sooner? That's really not cool," Zhou Liu said, slinging an arm around Wang Ge's shoulders and teasing him.

"Yeah, so stingy," Huang Wenyan chimed in from the side.

"Stop barking, you dogs," Wang Ge rolled his eyes at them. "We just started dating, I haven't even had her all to myself yet."

"Haha," Zhou Liu let out a hearty laugh and glanced back twice. "Since everyone's here, shall we go?"

"Let's go, let's go."

The group chattered noisily as they exited the bathhouse. Wang Ge asked, "What's the plan for today?"

"Haunted house in the morning, then a murder mystery game in the afternoon, and KTV for singing at night. How's that?" Zhou Liu asked.

"Why not the haunted house at night? Wouldn't that be more exciting?" Wang Ge asked with a smile.

"I'd love to, but someone's not willing," Zhou Liu said, his gaze drifting unintentionally towards Huang Wenyan.

"It's mainly because Songyue is a bit timid, we have to look out for her..." Huang Wenyan explained.

Zhou Liu scoffed, "Don't use your girlfriend as an excuse. I remember the last few times we went to a haunted house, you screamed louder than Yang Songyue."

"You weren't much better. Last time, who was it that got so disoriented from fright they ended up running headfirst into a pillar, really scaring the staff..."

Neither of them was willing to back down, and they started digging up each other's embarrassing pasts. Wang Ge took this opportunity to glance back at Chen Yanxi. She was surrounded by Chen Man'an and Yang Songyue, who were bombarding her with gossip about her and Wang Ge.

"Chen Yanxi, how did you and Wang Ge meet?"

"We met on the awards stage."

"The awards stage?"

"Mm-hmm."

Chen Man'an's eyes lit up, and she declared confidently, "I know, I know! You must have met when you went on stage together to receive an award, right?"

"I think so too," Yang Songyue added.

"No," Chen Yanxi calmly shook her head. "We were presenting awards to someone else."

Chen Man'an: "..."

Yang Songyue: "..."

Is the world of top students really this complicated?

"And then? Who pursued whom? Or who confessed first? What was the process like, did anything dramatic happen?" Yang Songyue asked curiously.

"He pursued me, and I agreed. Nothing special, that's it," Chen Yanxi replied calmly.

Chen Yanxi's account was too plain, not fitting with what Chen Man'an and Yang Songyue knew of Wang Ge. The two of them, unwilling to give up, continued to probe, hoping to find some interesting gossip. Chen Man'an spoke first, "Did Wang Ge confess to you? How did he confess?"

Yang Songyue followed closely, "Mhmm, also, you two weren't in the same class, right? You probably didn't interact much normally. How did you fall for each other? And how did you confirm you liked each other?"

The two girls chattered on, but Chen Yanxi didn't seem annoyed at all. She answered very methodically, "Confessing isn't anything special. Phrases like 'I like you' and 'I love you' are things he says every day. If you have to say it, he probably confesses to me many times a day.

He and I are indeed not in the same class, but we do interact quite a bit. Like the award ceremony I just mentioned, we were both involved in most of the school's activities, so we got familiar with each other easily.

As for why I like him..."

Chen Yanxi paused here and shook her head. "Feelings of liking are probably impossible to trace back to their roots, right? If a feeling of liking can be traced back, it's often not pure enough and incredibly cheap.

I don't think my feelings are cheap. I've only ever liked him in my entire life, and I think it's the same for him."

"Wow..."

After Chen Yanxi finished speaking, Chen Man'an and Yang Songyue's eyes sparkled, their faces full of envy. "Your relationship is so good, like that... Immortal Couple..."

Chen Man'an sighed, "Why does everyone else's relationship seem so sweet, while mine is a complete mess..."

Yang Songyue nodded in agreement, "Exactly, it always feels like everyone else's relationships are different..."

They didn't know what kind of person Chen Yanxi was, but they knew Wang Ge's situation very well. They both knew that Wang Ge had been single before this, and despite many girls liking him, he had always been indifferent. This was the first time he had brought a girlfriend to see them.

It was precisely because they knew Wang Ge's situation that Chen Man'an and Yang Songyue believed Chen Yanxi's words wholeheartedly and were extremely envious of their relationship.

Chen Man'an and Zhou Liu had grown up together, Childhood Sweethearts, knowing each other too well. They were like an old married couple now, with no passion. Forget confessing every day, it was good enough if they didn't find fault with each other.

As for Yang Songyue and Huang Wenyan's relationship, while good, it wasn't particularly pure. Their union had a somewhat business-like nature, but since neither of them had anyone they liked, they just settled for each other.

Therefore, both of them envied Chen Yanxi, envying the beautiful and pure feelings between her and Wang Ge.

Chen Yanxi shook her head and said nothing.

In this world, are there really things that are purely beautiful?

"Sigh, I really didn't expect that just a few days ago Wang Ge was calling you a pervert, and now you're together, and your relationship is so good," Chen Man'an said with emotion.

"Hmm?" Chen Yanxi looked a little confused.

"Haha, you didn't know?" Yang Songyue laughed. "It's because Wang Ge is second in his family, and his ranking in school has always been suppressed by you, making him the eternal runner-up. So, every time results came out, we'd call him Wang Lao Er to tease him."

"Then he'd indignantly say, 'You guys don't know, the person who got first place is a pure pervert. How can someone who gets 730 out of 750 every time be normal?'" Chen Man'an continued, imitating Wang Ge's tone and laughing heartily.

"Is that so?" Chen Yanxi's lips curved into an almost imperceptible smile, and she gently shook her head. "Getting 730 isn't actually that difficult. If you study seriously, it's quite easy to achieve."

Chen Man'an, who had only scored 500 on the college entrance exam, couldn't laugh anymore.

Yang Songyue, who could now only score 450 points, also had a stiff expression on her face.

The world of top students is truly beyond the comprehension of mortals like us.

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" Chen Yanxi looked at the two of them with confusion.

"No, probably, maybe not?" Yang Songyue replied uncertainly.

Chen Man'an, however, coughed and suddenly pointed at a beggar at the mall entrance. Mimicking Chen Yanxi's tone from earlier, she asked Yang Songyue, "My dear minister Yang, you say, if the people have no grain to fill their bellies, why don't they eat minced meat?"

Yang Songyue was amused by her antics, gave her a thumbs-up, and burst out laughing, "You're so alike! Hahaha..."

Chen Yanxi was stunned for a moment, then also smiled helplessly.

I've been mocked...

Chen Man'an grinned and took out a hundred yuan bill from her pocket, handing it to Chen Yanxi. "Here, Your Majesty, please go and experience the suffering of the common people~"
