Chen Pingjiang dragged Zhang Xinyue out of the KTV. The two formed a V-shape, with Zhang Xinyue following behind, her mouth pursed in anger, yet an unusual glint shone in her eyes.
"Why are you at Dongcai?"
Chen Pingjiang finally spoke after finding a secluded spot.
"Hey, who are you? Why did you bring me here?"
Zhang Xinyue snorted coldly, arms crossed, her small face stern.
Chen Pingjiang was dumbfounded.
He just wanted to make money, how did he end up entangled in romantic feelings again?
Adjusting his mindset, Chen Pingjiang took a deep breath and threatened,
"If you don't say it now, then don't ever say it later. We'll just pretend we never met."
"If we haven't met, we haven't met. Anyway, just now you pretended not to know me and stuck so close to that pretty girl."
Zhang Xinyue didn't fall for that at all, her small face full of grievance, eyes reddening, little pearls about to fall.
Chen Pingjiang gave Zhang Xinyue a meaningful look.
Without another word, he strode away.
Little girl, I've dealt with countless women, can't I handle a brat like you?
At this point, absolutely don't back down.
Back down once, back down for life.
Don't take the easy way out, keep arguing.
Whoever backs down first is a dog.
This bottom line must be raised, raised to the height of Mount Everest, to make sure she doesn't dare throw tantrums in front of you again.
Of course, you need to be realistic about your own strength, otherwise, it's extremely easy to screw up, and then turn around to find yourselves strangers.
"Chen Pingjiang, you jerk!"
Just as Chen Pingjiang's figure was about to disappear, Zhang Xinyue panicked.
Remembering all the grievances she suffered on the way, being ostracized in the dorm, tears fell like broken pearls.
At that moment, Zhang Xinyue felt that Chen Pingjiang's departure was a permanent farewell!
Perhaps all her efforts were in vain; he would only cherish her less and less.
Zhang Xinyue squatted by the roadside, burying her head.
One could still see her body trembling beneath her elegant curves, sobbing incessantly.
"Crying one moment, laughing the next, your two eyes are like cannons."
Just then, Chen Pingjiang's teasing voice, in an authentic Shanghai accent, came.
Zhang Xinyue felt a warmth spread to her palm.
Although her head was buried, she could still feel it was a tissue.
In an instant, the feeling of being abandoned vanished into thin air.
Zhang Xinyue's heart was filled with immense satisfaction and joy, but she stubbornly kept her head buried.
Are you kidding me?
Don't I have any dignity?
Absolutely cannot let Chen Pingjiang see, otherwise, he'd think she liked him so much.
Just as she was waiting for Chen Pingjiang to continue coaxing her, Chen Pingjiang had quieted down.
Zhang Xinyue, who had waited for a long time without any movement, quietly raised her head and saw Chen Pingjiang casually sitting on the curb, silently smoking a cigarette while watching the hurried crowd pass by.
Zhang Xinyue's delicate little nose crinkled.
She softly cursed, "Jerk."
Chen Pingjiang stared blankly at the bustling traffic in front of him.
Had his rebirth truly changed the butterfly's wings?
He wasn't stupid, so he could naturally guess why Zhang Xinyue appeared at the finance university.
It was just that the two parallel lines of his previous life suddenly began to converge, leaving him a bit flustered.
To be fair, even though he didn't have any special feelings for Zhang Xinyue, he couldn't help but be moved by her willingness to come to an unfamiliar place just to see him.
Don't miss good girls, don't waste bad girls?
Was it "this love crosses mountains and seas, and all mountains and seas can be leveled," or was it "love arises with the wind, but when the wind stops, the feeling is hard to settle, regret is regret after all"?
Who knows?
Chen Pingjiang felt he couldn't ignore Zhang Xinyue's "love that crosses mountains and seas," nor could he pull out the flag he had personally planted.
So, wouldn't it be good to be her older brother?
Thinking of this, Chen Pingjiang nodded in satisfaction and extinguished his cigarette butt.
You stand on the bridge and watch the scenery, while the person watching the scenery watches you from a building.
Chen Pingjiang was lost in thought, staring at the bustling traffic.
Zhang Xinyue was also lost in thought, staring at Chen Pingjiang's strong back.
Women always stay by the side of men who make them cry, while men stay by the side of women who make them laugh.
This saying is the most accurate depiction.
Her emotions were being completely manipulated by Chen Pingjiang, rising and falling at his command.
She had lost from the very beginning.
"Done crying?"
Chen Pingjiang's voice drifted over, startling Zhang Xinyue into a panic, her heart pounding like a deer.
She quickly lowered her head, becoming like a hedgehog.
"Little sister."
Zhang Xinyue: "?"
"Let's go back to the dorm. We still have military training tomorrow."
"Who are you calling 'little sister'?"
Zhang Xinyue reluctantly raised her head, frowning and looking left and right.
"You!"
Chen Pingjiang smiled.
"You're crazy! Who wants to be your little sister?"
Zhang Xinyue's proud face turned away.
Chen Pingjiang shrugged, not caring.
"I'm warning you not to be ungrateful. Plenty of people want to be my little sister."
"Ugh, shameless! Plenty of people want to be my older brother too, you're not the only one."
Zhang Xinyue's proud demeanor was on full display, her face full of disdain.
Chen Pingjiang: "Then I'll leave?"
...
Meanwhile, the people in the KTV room fell into a longer silence after a brief one.
Who was still in the mood to sing now? The fire of gossip burned fiercely in their hearts.
Zhao Shaoyang was lost in a world of lost love, unable to extricate himself.
Cong Nini was formulating a strategic plan to 'conquer' Chen Pingjiang.
The man you like is my simp.
Just thinking about it, Cong Nini's legs had to clench in excitement.
"Ahem."
Dong Tinghui, who had organized the gathering, coughed twice.
"How about we call it a day?"
Wang Liwen hesitated and said,
"Should we call and ask if they're coming back? It would be awkward if they came back and we were all gone."
"I guess they won't be back. They might not even return to the dorm tonight,"
Dong Tinghui analyzed logically.
Wow, this one sentence instantly ignited the atmosphere in the private room.
"Wow, that fast?"
"Are you silly, Tingting? Chen Pingjiang and Zhang Xinyue clearly know each other."
The girl named Yu Tingting looked bewildered and belatedly realized,
"How did you figure that out? I was just busy eating fruit, I didn't pay attention."
"When Zhang Xinyue came in, Wenwen pulled her to sit with Zhao Shaoyang, but Zhang Xinyue just plonked herself down next to Chen Pingjiang."
Yu Tingting dismissed it casually,
"What's the big deal? Chen Pingjiang is obviously the most handsome, maybe she just didn't fancy Zhao Shaoyang."
Zhao Shaoyang looked utterly bewildered, thinking,
"I've already lost my love, and you still have to stab me a few more times?" Yet he couldn't refute it, his face turning green with anger.
The thick-skinned Yu Tingting only realized she had said the wrong thing after a while.
She awkwardly stuck out her tongue and said to Zhao Shaoyang,
"My bad, don't take it to heart."
"Then there was Chen Pingjiang and Nini originally planning a love duet. How do you explain Zhang Xinyue snatching the microphone?"
Yu Tingting: "Perhaps... Zhang Xinyue is also a mic hog?"
The speaker had no intention, but the listener took it to heart.
Cong Nini's face grew increasingly unsightly.
The ordinary-looking Zhang Lu watched the sulking Cong Nini.
After a moment's thought, she took out her phone and sent a message in the "Go Sisters!" group:
"So, Chen Pingjiang being interested in Cong Nini was fake, right?"
Cong Nini was not in this group, nor was Zhang Xinyue from the other class.
Wang Liwen: "I also don't think so."
Yu Tingting continued to be thoughtless and outspoken:
"If I were a man, I'd like Xinyue too. She's pretty and playful, the prettiest in Dorm 403."
