Chapter 389 - The Power Of Love
Chapter 389: The Power Of Love
“Ya, he must be delighted then?” Yun Xiangxiang didn’t feel the slightest bit uncomfortable about being surpassed by Yang Qi. Instead, she was happy for him.
“He didn’t go home this semester. He has been taking up summer jobs and staying in the school. His roommate said that he was so excited after checking his results that he ran two laps on the field, and then bawled on the field…”
Yun Xiangxiang: ???
What is this action, tears of joy?
“He was afraid that you would ignore him.” Feng Xiaolu couldn’t help but laughed as she said this. Yang Qi was a weirdo.
Yun Xiangxiang didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry, “We can tease him a little later during lunch hahahahaha…”
Sure enough, when it was time to eat, Yang Qi had always taken the initiative to eat with them.
In fact, half of the people in the whole school would like to eat with Yun Xiangxiang, but she was always surrounded by those from her dormitory and the adjacent dormitory. The others could only be tactful and not bother her.
Yang Qi was someone who had gotten privileges, and they sometimes had different schedules. There were two people from the adjacent dormitory who didn’t mix well with them.
Yang Qi must have mixed with them shamelessly. Although many people called him a dog behind his back, he would take it that they were jealous.
Today, he was like a kid who did something wrong. He didn’t dare look at Yun Xiangxiang and didn’t dare to come over to this side.
Yun Xiangxiang also pretended as if she didn’t see his pitiful and innocent gaze and did not even take a glance at him the whole time.
For this reason, many people who had known the grades felt that Yun Xiangxiang was petty.
Although Yun Xiangxiang was the goddess of their campus, not everyone in the school liked her. There were also many who didn’t like her.
Among them, most of them were girls. It could mostly be the same-sex repulsion, but there were not many who would play dirty tricks.
It could be that Yun Xiangxiang was not in school often. Hence there were not many opportunities. Yet they also didn’t dare to cause mischief because they feared Yun Xiangxiang’s huge fan club.
It was only until noon when Yun Xiangxiang and the others arrived at the library to self-study that Yang Qi dawdled over with a book in his hand.
He still didn’t dare to open his mouth and say anything in a quiet place like the library. However, he still sat down shamelessly, seeing that Yun Xiangxiang wasn’t rejecting him even though she ignored him.
Yun Xiangxiang, Tao Manni, and the others walked out after they were done with their revisions and when it was almost time for class. Only then did Yang Qi muster up his courage, “Goddess, I have something to say to you.”
Yun Xiangxiang almost couldn’t hold back from laughing out loud, seeing his lost and confused little look. She tried her best to sound flat and dull, “Speak.”
Yang Qi peaked at Tao Manni and the rest with a dejected look for them to make some space self-consciously, but the three of them didn’t seem to notice.
Yang Qi didn’t have a choice but to open his mouth, “I… I would like to confess something to you privately.”
“You’re not trying to confess, right?” Ma Linlin teased him intentionally.
Yang Qi’s face changed drastically in shock. He stopped, “No, no, no, I wouldn’t dare!”
Yun Xiangxiang glimpsed at him, but took the initiative to walk about ten steps to the side away from Tao Manni and the others, “Tell me.”
Yang Qi looked like he was too embarrassed to speak up.
Seeing him as such, Yun Xiangxiang also couldn’t help but be suspicious, “If you continue being like this, I would really suspect that you want to confess to me.”
“No, goddess!” Yang Qi immediately clarified, “I already have someone I like.”
“Oh.” Yun Xiangxiang nodded, “The person you like doesn’t like me? So you want to leave the fan club?”
Otherwise, would it really be necessary for him to be on his guard like this as if he was going to betray her?
“No, she likes you. She likes you more than I do.” Yang Qi denied it again.
“Then spit it out. Take a look around. There are already so many people evaluating curiously. If you continue with this look, the whole school would think you are about to confess to me. Then, the girl you like may not want you anymore.”
Many people wouldn’t crowd around Yun Xiangxiang, nor would they be as excited as those who rarely see Yun Xiangxiang due to the campus atmosphere.
However, Yun Xiangxiang was still the highlight. Regardless of where she went, she would not lack attention from others.
Yang Qi looked around and seemed to have the courage, “I, I, I… It’s just the person that I like. She said that as long as I can score better than you in the exam, she would agree to my pursuit. That is why l…”
So that’s the case. It was because of love that he made such an effort. One person threw away her throne in the top three for love; one person grabbed the throne in the top three for love. Sure enough, love had its pros and cons.
“Then what are you so nervous about?” Yun Xiangxiang was puzzled.
“I feel like I have betrayed my idol because of love.” Yang Qi was sad and also a little disgusted at himself.
Yun Xiangxiang really couldn’t hold back from laughing out loud. If it weren’t because she was afraid that the people in school would misunderstand, she would have burst out laughing outrageously.
In fact, the people Yun Xiangxiang had met were all toward the mature side. She liked hanging out with Yang Qi and the others because she could see the youth’s vitality in these people.
Such young and tender cuteness would make a person feel as if they have gotten several years younger at heart. It would curate a kind of ease that was indescribable.
“Kid, for the sake of your happiness, I hope that you can continue to maintain your excellent grades.” Yun Xiangxiang said to him, “I am proud of the fact that you could surpass me, and I don’t think that you have betrayed me. Moreover, your girlfriend also likes me a lot. I am thrilled for you to have found someone who shares a common interest with you.”
“She’s not my girlfriend yet,” said Yang Qi dully.
“Didn’t you beat me in the exam already?” Yun Xiangxiang was puzzled.
“She’s playing dumb. She said that I have only won the exam once, and it doesn’t count.” Yang Qi felt wronged and seemed like he was complaining to Yun Xiangxiang.
His look for having his feelings played by an emotionless scumbag made Yun Xiangxiang feel that this was unreasonable.
“It is a bit immoral.” Yun Xiangxiang seemed to agree. Since she had already given her word and was going back on it…
“However, it could be that she doesn’t like you. We can’t force things when it’s a matter of feelings.”
It wouldn’t be right for Yun Xiangxiang to judge others, so she could only comfort Yang Qi.
“She gave me two options.” Yang Qi was indeed pouring his heart out to Yun Xiangxiang. He was willing to share anything with Yun Xiangxiang, “One was that we get together now, and we break up when I couldn’t beat goddess’ grades.
“The other was that we don’t get together now, but I guarantee to surpass goddess in the exams for every upcoming semester. If I still like her, then she would consider marrying me.”
“Hearing this, I don’t think that she necessarily has zero feelings for you. It could be that she is motivating you to improve.” Yun Xiangxiang seemed to be in her thoughts. She felt that this way of work seemed somewhat familiar in a sense, “Who is this person that you are referring to?”
“It’s the president.” Yang Qi would not lie to Yun Xiangxiang.
“The president…” Yun Xiangxiang didn’t manage to respond immediately, but she managed to react after reciting the two words, “Mengmeng!”
“Yeah.” Yang Qi’s face turned bashful when he mentioned Song Meng. It was an innocent boy’s normal reaction.
Yun Xiangxiang felt as if her head was about to explode. How could Yun Xiangxiang not understand Song Meng’s kind of behavior?
She was someone who emphasizes physical appearances. Yang Qi was not ugly, but he was not a handsome man. How could Song Meng say something like this!?
