If we were to say that Teacher Jiang Fang is a beautiful and vibrant purple peony in the Elite Training Camp.

Janet, in the prime of her youth, was like a budding red rose. With her remarkable talent and outstanding looks, it was no wonder that she was pursued by many male trainees in the Training Camp.

But this does not include Luo Zhe.

So-called love at first sight is nothing more than lust at first sight; love that grows over time is nothing more than premeditated.

In Luo Zhe's view, true love doesn't need to be spoken. Rather, it's the instant you meet someone, the moment your eyes meet, that you know he (or she) is the one you've been looking for.

Janet was indeed very beautiful, but in Luo Zhe's heart, she was not the one he was looking for.

Faced with Janet's invitation, Luo Zhe politely declined, saying, "I'm sorry, senior sister, I have gravity training in the gravity chamber tomorrow night, so..."

Janet was a smart woman and could sense a subtle distance in Luo Zhe's words. Although she didn't know the reason for this distance, Janet knew that her junior brother was not like other suitors who would fall at her feet with just a flick of his wrist.

There's plenty of time! There's no need to rush.

Janet's expression remained unchanged; in fact, her smile deepened as she replied, "That's a real shame. It seems I'll have to enjoy it all by myself."

Suddenly, the lights on the entire second floor dimmed, plunging the already dimly lit party area into complete darkness. Apart from a few female students who gasped in surprise, everyone else remained calm and stood still.

Snap!

Suddenly, background music started playing, and two white beams of light shone directly onto Candace in the center of the hall, as well as the giant heart made of 999 roses behind him.

Bathed in white light, Candace walked step by step to Janet, knelt on one knee, and as if by magic, produced a small red box containing a pendant made of rubies. He said tenderly, "Janet, from the moment I met you, every smile and gesture of yours has deeply touched my heart. Your joy is my joy, and your sorrow is my sorrow. Since meeting you, my heart has felt incomplete, as if a piece is missing, waiting for you to enter and fill the void."

There's a Huaxia saying: Buddha said that five hundred glances in a past life are needed to brush shoulders in this life. If that's true, I'd give ten thousand glances to meet you and tell you, "I long to love you properly."

I know it's hard to love someone, but it's even harder to give up on the one you love. I can no longer control my feelings, I can no longer control my heart. I love you, please allow me to walk hand in hand with you into a bright future.

Will you be my girlfriend?

It has to be said that Candace's heartfelt confession was quite impressive. Luo Zhe could even see tears welling up in the eyes of several female students around him, clearly deeply moved.

But Janet didn't seem to be buying it, especially since she had just been rejected by Luo Zhe's invitation and wasn't in a good mood.

Janet glanced at Luo Zhe instinctively, then turned back to Candace, giving her a sweet smile that made Candace feel like he was about to win her heart. Then, she coldly said, "Oh, I'm sorry, Candace. I already have someone I like, and I can't accept your feelings."

Luo Zhe took two steps back and walked to Zhao Ruo and Shi Jiang's side to avoid getting into trouble.

Candace's smile froze on his face. He seemed to have never expected Janet to reject him so harshly in front of so many students, showing him no mercy whatsoever.

The scene suddenly became awkward, especially as the surrounding students began to whisper among themselves, particularly those who weren't on good terms with Candace, who chuckled quietly.

Seeing the first in line to the Polenas Family lose face so badly, tonight's trip was definitely worthwhile!

Janet frowned and glanced around. She had clearly noticed the voices of the other students. With a low snort, she turned to leave. But then—

Candace suddenly stood up, grabbed Janet's hand, pointed at Luo Zhe, and demanded, "Is it because you like him that you rejected me?"

"Me???" Luo Zhe looked completely bewildered.

This sudden mention caught Luo Zhe off guard. He hadn't expected that even though he had deliberately stayed away from the battlefield, the flames of war would still fall on him.

... quiet...

A huge piece of gossip suddenly appeared, making the onlookers clap and cheer.

Today's drama, starring Candace Janet, is truly a masterpiece. I thought being rejected after confessing my feelings was the pinnacle, but unexpectedly, it also involves a third party, with the seeds of which are soaring in the Training Camp recently, Luo Zhe.

Hmm, this melon is huge! And very white!

Janet tried to shake off Candace with a strong jerk, but Candace held her right hand tightly and she couldn't break free for a moment.

"This has nothing to do with him."

Janet said coldly, "Candace, have some self-respect! The first in line to the throne of the prestigious Polenas Family, you wouldn't have to steal your girlfriend, would you? If you keep pestering me like this, I'm going to notify the Training Camp's security team!"

Candace remained silent for a long time before finally slowly releasing Janet's hand.

"Janet, I really like you, please give me a chance." Candace tried to continue, but Janet turned and left without looking back.

Candace was left standing alone, her fists clenched tightly.

As the lights gradually came back on, many of the trainees who had come to watch the drama realized that the female lead had already run away, and they had no interest in staying any longer, so they began to leave in twos and threes.

"Huh? That's it? How boring!" Zhao Ruo stomped her feet in dissatisfaction, her high heels clicking crisply on the tiles. "This kind of scene with two men fighting over one woman is a classic, the most exciting one. How come it's over so quickly?"

"Senior Sister!" Luo Zhe glared at Zhao Ruo, annoyed. What kind of person was she? Always stirring up trouble. He had almost been unfairly blamed just now.

Fine!

Janet didn't seize the opportunity to shift the blame, otherwise, judging from Candace's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot, he probably wouldn't have gotten away with it.

In just a short while, almost half of the students on the second floor had left, making the large second floor seem a bit empty. However, since Luo Zhe and Shi Jiang showed no signs of leaving anytime soon, the other students from Huaxia remained.

Huaxia Nation is a country that values interpersonal relationships the most. This is the perfect time to build good relationships. If you establish good connections now, you won't have to worry about not being able to get in the door when you need someone's help in the future.

Luo Zhe was also a bit hungry, since he had been tricked by Zhao Ruo and hadn't even eaten dinner that night. Since no one was really in the mood for chatting, he went to get something to eat.

To be honest, Candace really went all out this time. Just looking at the quality of the dishes, it's no less impressive than the time when Senior Brother Chu Qiang hosted a dinner party. Moreover, this time the scale was quite large. I estimate that it would cost at least 30 to 50 million to save face.

Just as Luo Zhe was enjoying delicious food and a special cocktail, silently thanking the 'good person' Candace, he suddenly felt someone else beside him.

Turning around, she saw it was Candace, the male lead of the night. He had a dark expression on his face, with his henchman William behind him. He said in a low voice, "Luo Zhe, as long as you're willing to leave Janet, name your price."

Luo Zhe: "..."

Why did that happen so suddenly? And how is he going to leave? The problem is, he didn't even get close! It seems Candace is quite shaken.

Luo Zhe patted Candace on the shoulder sympathetically and comforted her, "You can't force happiness in love. Take it easy, the next one will be better."

"What do you want from me to agree to leave Janet?" Candace gritted her teeth, her bloodshot eyes glaring at Luo Zhe.

"Hey, why don't you understand?" Luo Zhe scratched his head, looking troubled. "Janet never belonged to me, how can I leave her?"

"Brother, if you can't win over the girl you love, don't drag innocent people into this!"

Luo Zhe's words seemed to ignite a volcano about to erupt, burning away the last vestiges of reason in Candace's mind. Pointing a finger at Luo Zhe, she declared, "I challenge you to a duel! A fight to the death!"

"The loser leaves Janet!"
