Chapter 246: Boyfriend, Please Take Good Care of My Little Girl
Walking through the campus, every few steps I couldn’t help but smirk softly.
My eyes, curved in happiness, shimmered like I’d just discovered the secret to eternal youth.
“There’s gonna be more people up ahead… So, when it’s not crowded, I’ll kiss you. And you insisted on sticking out your tongue—annoying Dragon Bro…”
But despite the complaints, my face was practically glowing.
Kissing Dragon Bro is such a blissful thing—mind, body, soul, all tangled up in each other.
Every kiss, every tongue-tie, leaves this strange feeling on my skin.
It’s weird, kind of dizzying, like floating on cloud nine, but with a side of butterflies and rainbows.
And every single time, I lose myself in it, soaring above the clouds, totally unbothered.
“Hu Yu Ying.”
Today, Hu Yu Ying was in a fantastic mood. When someone called her, she turned around with a bright smile.
But oh, the sparkle in her eyes vanished faster than her favorite snack when she saw who it was.
Xue Shao Hua let out a sigh, tilted his head at that perfect forty-five degrees, confidently flipped his hair, and tried to wear a look that said, “I am the king.”
These days, hanging out with Ye Liang Chen, at least in terms of style points, Ye Liang Chen is second to none at A University—no one dares to claim the top spot.
In this age of fashion rebellion, “style” symbolizes being cool and free.
Just a flick of hair can make all the difference, a real finishing touch.
Xue Shao Hua put his hand in his pocket, flipped his hair again, and approached Hu Yu Ying without a word, just staring at her with an injured kind of look.
Sometimes, a look says so much more than words ever could.
That sad, melancholic gaze—like he’s been wounded to the core—he flicked his hair and said softly, “Long time no see.”
Hu Yu Ying scrunched her eyebrows lightly and turned to leave.
She remembered what Dragon Bro told her—stay away from Xue Shao Hua.
So she obediently listened and prepared to walk off.
Because she knew, just like before with Ye Liang Chen, her big Bro’s words had always been… words.
Seeing Hu Yu Ying’s cool attitude, Xue Shao Hua finally understood why Ye Liang Chen always yelped and clutch his heart, looking like it was being squeezed by a giant invisible hand.
Because it really hurt a lot.
“Hu Yu Ying, you’re really talented.”
Hearing that, Hu Yu Ying was touched—not because of Xue Shao Hua himself, but because someone else had once told her the same thing.
Dragon Bro had said she was talented too.
Was she really that awesome?
Seeing Hu Yu Ying pause because of those words, Xue Shao Hua’s eyes sparkled, and he hurried to catch up.
He put on a serious, almost knightly tone: “Hu Yu Ying, you truly are talented. That’s why you deserve someone outstanding by your side.”
Suddenly, he felt all nervous and awkward.
He adjusted his clothes, then gave a bright, sunshiny smile—like a good boy in a coming-of-age movie.
“I might not be that outstanding, but I definitely won’t be worse.”
“Compared to some people who might delay your future, I think you need someone who can walk with you towards success.”
Hu Yu Ying sidestepped him, rolling her eyes. “Thanks, but I don’t need you meddling in my life.”
“Besides, no one’s delaying my life anymore—I’ve already found the person who will accompany me through all of it.”
She smiled happily, revealing her happiness: “His name is Long Ao Tian. My boyfriend.”
Before, Dragon Bro didn’t accept her, and she couldn’t say such things openly. But now? She could boldly tell everyone—her boyfriend’s name is Long Ao Tian, and he’s her lucky star!
Hu Yu Ying’s blissful smile struck Xue Shao Hua deep in his chest.
She was so happy, and despite being supposedly better than Long Ao Tian in every way, why couldn’t she see him?
What’s wrong with him? Where does he fall short?
“From the moment you got into A University, your status has changed. You’re now in a different league from some small-town kid.”
“If he really cares about you, he wouldn’t be holding you back. He should let you soar high, free and unstoppable!”
“Hu Yu Ying, you’re so naive sometimes. You see everything too simplistically. Can you really promise you won’t regret it someday?”
Hearing that, Hu Yu Ying’s smile deepened—it was adorable how naive he was.
He almost decided to give up, to hand all the choice over to her.
Luckily, she held firm in her heart.
So she said confidently, “No regrets!”
Compared to everyone else, he—this rough-and-tumble guy who called himself a ‘tough guy’—was truly, truly outstanding.
If she didn’t work hard, she wouldn’t even be worthy of him.
“Thanks a lot,” Hu Yu Ying suddenly smiled at Xue Shao Hua.
He froze, heart pounding painfully—as she said the words “no regrets.”
But now she was smiling and thanking him?
He rubbed the back of his head, feeling awkward—like a sunshine boy caught off guard.
“Th-Thanks for what?”
“Thanks for helping me see how good Long Bro is.”
“Xue Shao Hua,” she said seriously, “He’s the man I’ve decided on. Even without him, it wouldn’t be you. So I ask you—please don’t try to show off in front of me. I have a boyfriend now. His name is Long Ao Tian!”
After saying that, she felt breathlessly lighter.
Her mood lifted, her steps became more lively.
Soon, she returned to her dormitory.
Sharing her goodies with her three roommates, she beamed proudly.
“My boyfriend, please take good care of my little girl at home,” she declared.
The dorm instantly burst into cheerfulness.
Gifts aren’t expensive, but once they’re in your hands, they make you happy—and happy friends mean closer bonds in no time.
“You really have a good boyfriend.”
“Can we see a picture? We wanna know what he looks like.”
“Fine, fine. I admit it—I’ve been bought by your boyfriend. From now on, I’ll treat you well…”
Hearing her praise her Dragon Bro, Hu Yu Ying nodded solemnly. “Mm, Dragon Bro really is wonderful.”
The innocent girl always wants everyone to know—her man is just that good, that amazing.
……
Leaving the dorm, she spotted someone sitting in the corridor.
Li Qing Xue hurried over: “You still remember to contact me? I thought you forgot about me!”
Hu Yu Ying smiled gently, taking Li Qing Xue’s hand and affectionately saying, “Don’t put me on the spot. How could I forget you?”
Pure friendship sometimes beats love—so pure and enviable.
“Ding-ding-dong~” Hu Yu Ying pulled out a cake, sweets, and milk tea: “Long Bro asked me to bring these for you.”
“Hmph! Well, even if he’s been monopolizing everything for days, I’ll forgive him this time!”
Her envy flickered beneath her smile, hidden behind her cheerful face…
