Chapter 383: The Privileged Always Feel No Fear
“Alright, I’ll promise you!” Ye Liang Chen took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he solemnly swore, “I promise.”
Xue Shao Hua was his first man. Besides himself, nobody else was allowed to bully him directly.
“Hu Yu Ying, oh Hu Yu Ying, you really shouldn’t have provoked Shao Hua. Since you messed up, don’t come crying when I turn into an ice-cold stone-hearted monster!”
Hearing Ye Liang Chen’s vow, Xue Shao Hua sniffed, but didn’t seem that aggrieved anymore. Instead, she grinned and said, “Mmm hmm, I knew you’re the best for me.”
At those words—
Ye Liang Chen’s serious expression softened into gentleness. He cleared his throat, speaking in the purest bubble voice: “It’s not just you—who else are you good to, you silly fool?”
“I won’t let anyone who hurts you go unpunished!”
Hearing this, Xue Shao Hua felt that at this moment, Ye Liang Chen looked like the perfect gentleman.
He cast a glance at Hu Yu Ying, who was already seated, a flicker of pride and slyness flashing in his eyes.
The wounds he suffered now—one day, they’d all be spilled out onto her.
And then she’d realize—rejecting his love would come with a price!
Thinking of this, his heart finally found a bit of solace, and he felt much more exhilarated after the hurt Hu Yu Ying caused him just now.
“Okay, okay. It’s just that in your heart, I’m the most important. I was just in a bad mood earlier, but now I feel much better.”
“You really don’t understand my heart. In my mind, I won’t allow anyone else to bully the person I care about!” Ye Liang Chen slowly said, “Even a treasure girl isn’t exempt!”
If it had been before, Ye Liang Chen would believe everything and stand by his treasure girl.
But after all that’s happened—she not only refused his salvation but also repeatedly turned down his love confessions.
Her position in his heart is no longer what it used to be. That’s not his fault—she did it all herself!
If she had agreed to his salvation back then, things wouldn’t be like this now!
With a disappointed gaze at the sky, Ye Liang Chen sighed—unfortunately, there are no what-ifs. Too bad she didn’t cherish me!
Things have come to this point; it’s not what Ye Liang Chen wanted to see either.
Suddenly, a flash of Long Ao Tian’s figure appeared in his mind. A faint smile curved on Ye Liang Chen’s lips: “After the sports meet, you’ll know what cruelty really is!”
After hanging up, Ye Liang Chen strode back into the classroom confidently and charmingly shook his hair, just right showing off his earrings.
Seeing everyone’s gaze turn to him, he smiled and headed toward his seat. As he passed Zhou Li, he left a faint comment: “Elegance never goes out of style!”
Under Zhou Li’s admiration-filled gaze, he sat down gracefully.
Meanwhile—
Xue Shao Hua, now in a better mood, returned to the classroom. As he passed Hu Yu Ying, an arrogant smile couldn’t be contained on his face.
But Hu Yu Ying paid no attention to that irrelevant person’s glances.
Detecting this, Xue Shao Hua furrowed his brows slightly.
He couldn’t understand—everything he did was for Hu Yu Ying’s benefit. She didn’t accept his feelings, fine, but why did she look down on him?
What did he do wrong?
Liking someone—is there really a mistake in that?
Is it true that the favored always feel fearless?
He slowly closed his eyes, resisting the urge to call Ye Liang Chen and vent his frustration.
Just bitterly chuckling, he whispered, “It’s okay. One day, I’ll earn your body and your heart. Then you’ll see my sincerity.”
……
At the music college gate.
Ling Wan Ning’s voice came from her phone: “Big brother, don’t be in such a hurry. I want to go shopping today. I want to look pretty.”
“Ten minutes, I’ll wait for you at the gate.”
Listening to Ling Wan Ning’s sweet voice, Long Ao Tian responded: “Ten minutes, I’m right here at the school entrance.”
Since being with Wan Ning, her cold and aloof aura seemed to evaporate in an instant. Her smile grew more abundant, and she was getting better at acting cute.
Checking the time on his phone—already twenty minutes past the agreed ten.
“I knew it…” he was about to call Ling Wan Ning again when—
His shoulder was lightly tapped.
He turned around.
Long Ao Tian’s expression froze slightly.
Seeing the astonished look in Long Ao Tian’s eyes, Ling Wan Ning smugly flicked her long hair: “Is it good-looking?”
“Very,” Long Ao Tian nodded.
“So I didn’t make you wait in vain, right?”
“But aren’t you cold?”
Ling Wan Ning rolled her eyes immediately—hasn’t she heard of dressing up for someone she loves?
Without hesitation, she sat down on Long Ao Tian’s electric scooter’s back seat, refusing to say another word.
Long Ao Tian chuckled inwardly.
Today, Wan Ning looked especially stunning.
White coat, dress inside, accentuated her tall figure and elegant air perfectly.
Her skin leaned toward that cool white tone, subtle makeup, red lipstick—the whole look was truly beautiful.
Waiting at the traffic light, he gently pressed the brake.
Wan Ning, annoyed, immediately kept her distance after touching Long Ao Tian.
“Today, Wan Ning looks especially pretty,” Long Ao Tian glanced at her through the rearview mirror softly.
Hearing this, Wan Ning pursed her lips with a hum, then immediately hugged him tightly: “Big brother, you’re so annoying. I already have feelings for you, and you’re here trying to coax me again…”
“Can’t you just praise me for being handsome from the start?”
“Earlier, I was a bit distracted. When I was coming to pick you up, I spotted an island.”
“Nonsense, where? The music college and T University are only a few hundred meters apart. If there were an island, I would have seen it.”
“You’re right—you can’t see it because that island is called—yourHeart’sDistraction!”
Wan Ning looked up, eyes full of smile, at Long Ao Tian: “So cheesy.”
But her face was still full of that smile, and her arms hugged him tightly—her feelings betrayed her.
Long Ao Tian smiled and said, “Let’s go!”
“Yeah.” With one arm around Long Ao Tian’s waist and the other outstretched like wings, she waved happily with the breeze.
Before leaving, Wan Ning sent a message in the group chat.
When they arrived at A University, she saw Li Qing Xue waiting at the gate.
“Qing Xue,” Wan Ning jumped out of the car and hurried over.
Seeing how pretty Wan Ning was today, dressed up and made-up, Li Qing Xue felt a tad hasty about her own look—decided to rush back to the dorm and do a quick makeover.
Long Ao Tian looked at Li Qing Xue but didn’t know how to start.
He mustered courage and softly called out from a short distance: “Qing Xue.”
Li Qing Xue said nothing, just looked at him.
The awkward silence was thick—so heavy, one could cut it with a kn*fe……
