This woman who once betrayed him!
Bai Yan stubbed out his cigarette and crushed it underfoot. He raised his head and gave her a calm, indifferent glance.
"What I do, is it any of your business?"
Bai Yan’s voice suddenly became icy cold.
"Is it really none of my business?"
Jin Xuanxuan’s voice suddenly rose, with a hint of annoyance and exasperation, glaring at Bai Yan: "Don’t you know what my friends have been talking about these days?"
"They say you’re going to extreme lengths to get my attention!"
"Was it you who beat up Li Feiwu?"
"The posts on the campus forum, were they written by you?"
"And, the mysterious boyfriend of An Xiaowan, that was you too, right? I can recognize that the man in the photo is you! You Photoshopped it, didn’t you?"
Jin Xuanxuan fired her words like a machine gun, unrelenting: "I beg you to stop trying to create hot topics to get my attention! No matter how much you change, I will never like you! We’ve already broken up, please stop bothering me."
Who’s creating hot topics just to catch her attention?
Some women, though not born princesses, are afflicted with ’princess disease’, forever assuming that all men should revolve around them!
Bai Yan watched coldly, lit another cigarette, and said calmly, "Are you done?"
He was getting impatient, Bai Yan found he was starting to dis woman for the first time - how could he have been so blind as to fall for such a person?
"Sorry, I lost my composure."
Jin Xuanxuan calmed down, suddenly realizing she was already Li Feiwen’s girlfriend, there was no need to be so angry with her ex-boyfriend.
Her expression cooled, she straightened her newly styled hair, and spoke reservedly: "Don’t think that by creating these hot topics, I’ll reconsider. Li Feiwen is my love, he is my romance. Also, you should be careful yourself, don’t think that by Photoshopping a picture, you’ve really become An Xiaowan’s boyfriend. Are you even worthy of her?"
"Be careful, if she finds out the truth, she might come after you."
Jin Xuanxuan suddenly smiled, saying to Bai Yan: "If you promise to stop bothering me, not interfere with my relationship with Li Feiwen, and stop creating hot topics, I can assure you that I won’t tell An Xiaowan about this."
She thought she had Bai Yan’s weak spot, assuming it was to catch her attention that he risked Photoshopping that image to create a hot topic.
Bai Yan exhaled a ring of smoke, hitting Jin Xuanxuan’s face, and spoke faintly: "You should be thankful I don’t hit women."
Otherwise, for your betrayal back then and your inexplicable mockery today, I’d sacrifice you!
Bai Yan took a deep breath and strode forward.
Alas, if only this wasn’t a campus full of people, I’d really sacrifice this woman.
Jin Xuanxuan was furious, wanting to scold him, but didn’t know how to begin.
Bai Yan’s earlier gaze was too indifferent, so cold that it made her shiver involuntarily, making Jin Xuanxuan doubt whether this was still the naive, easily deceived boy from before.
An Xiaowan’s voice came from a distance, her beauty charming like a nightingale, attracting the amazed looks of the passing students, quickly she approached Bai Yan.
Behind Bai Yan, Jin Xuanxuan couldn’t help but gape, her face a mix of shock and disbelief at the scene.
Bai Yan, he actually knows An Xiaowan?
How is that possible!
He’s just a poor boy, how could he possibly know An Xiaowan!
"Xiao Wan, why aren’t you in class?"
Bai Yan asked somewhat bewildered, he had no interest in dealing with Jin Xuanxuan, nor did he care about the shock in this woman’s heart.
An Xiaowan called out softly, promptly walking to Bai Yan’s side, Bai Yan quickly noticed Li Feiwen following behind An Xiaowan, holding a large bouquet of white tulips, his face wearing a smile.
No wonder Xiao Wan didn’t go to class, she ran into this guy halfway and got held up.
Bai Yan’s gaze narrowed slightly, his aura suddenly becoming somewhat sinister and icy.
Meeting an enemy truly ignites fury.
"Xiao Wan, wait for me, don’t walk so fast."
Li Feiwen hurried over, his eyes flickering with an imperceptible shock and cunning upon seeing Bai Yan standing beside An Xiaowan.
This kid, he isn’t dead.
No wonder friends from the Chinese Association have been advising me to keep a low profile these days.
Li Feiwen quickly adjusted his attitude, his gentlemanly smile returning as he gazed at An Xiaowan, his handsome face filled with adoration and tenderness, saying: "Xiao Wan, it’s been a long time since I’ve been back to school; finding you was the first thing I did today."
"Look, here are flowers I’ve brought you, I know you love white tulips, these are for you."
Li Feiwen was full of affection, not bringing up anything else, just presenting flowers.
After speaking, Li Feiwen glanced at Bai Yan with an expressionless face but a trace of disdain. I can fully grasp An Xiaowan’s preferences, what about you? You poor boy, do you really think being close will help you get what you want first?
Chasing girls requires skills!
It must be said, this guy does have some tricks up his sleeve, a lot smarter than his younger brother, knowing what methods to use for what kind of women.
An Xiaowan comes from a prestigious family, not the kind of woman you can win over with just money, as Shen Zhou Group’s market value could easily crush Li Group.
Thus, Li Feiwen chose to take a step back to advance, playing the role of a devoted suitor well, though persistent, he didn’t make any overly annoying moves.
If it were any ordinary rich girl, pursued so desperately by such a handsome guy as Li Feiwen, with all his dedication, she would likely have let her guard down and been completely won over by now.
Just when Li Feiwen was eagerly waiting for An Xiaowan to accept the flowers.
"I don’t like tulips."
An Xiaowan shook her head.
"How... how is that possible!"
Li Feiwen was stunned and asked with some puzzlement: "You’ve always liked tulips the most! Why don’t you like them all of a sudden?"
According to Li Feiwen’s investigations, even the flowers given to An Xiaowan by an ordinary boy out of admiration two months ago, and the flowers she grew in her own villa, were all tulips.
And An Xiaowan did like when others gave her tulips, not connected to feelings or other factors, she simply liked the flower.
But why the sudden change today?
"I really don’t like tulips, I don’t have a particular flower that I like."
An Xiaowan shook her head gently, sneaking a glance at Bai Yan, and whispered lowly, "It’s just that someone once told me, I am pure and naive like a white tulip. So from that day, I loved seeing tulips because they reminded me of him."
Now that he’s right by my side, what do I need your tulips for?
Li Feiwen was stunned, his handsome face full of astonishment; this wasn’t going according to the script in his mind!
Weren’t you supposed to shyly accept the flowers I offered?
Could it be because of this poor boy?
Li Feiwen couldn’t help but gaze at Bai Yan, his eyes flickering with a cold and angry light.
This kid is really lucky, to have survived thus far, seems I was too lenient before!
"Brother Yan, let’s go."
An Xiaowan gave Bai Yan a sweet smile, holding his hand, and headed towards the academic building.
Bai Yan coldly glanced at Li Feiwen, hesitated slightly, then followed An Xiaowan away.
It’s better not to shed blood in front of Xiao Wan.
When this bastard is alone.
Gang Qi slowly overflowed from the tips of Bai Yan’s fingers, silently spreading through the air, marking Li Feiwen’s body.
Just a mark, let’s see where you can run off to!
After An Xiaowan left, Li Feiwen’s originally smiling face instantly turned incredibly gloomy.
Watching the two hand in hand as they left, Li Feiwen snorted angrily and tossed the white tulips into a nearby trash can.
Jin Xuanxuan walked up somewhat uneasily, wanting to comfort her own boyfriend, yet not knowing where to start, filled only with bitterness.
She had just watched, helplessly, as her boyfriend, holding fresh flowers, chased after another woman, and she did not know how to stop him.
The old Bai Yan wouldn’t have done this; he would have only revolved around her, pampering her in every way, how could he do something so hurtful!
Li Feiwen roared lowly, giving Jin Xuanxuan a cold look, and said indifferently, "What are you doing here? I just saw you with that poor wretch, are you possibly hoping to rekindle old flames?"
Li Feiwen’s words were filled with faint sarcasm; he never considered Jin Xuanxuan his real girlfriend, in his eyes, this woman was nothing but a toy.
"No! Ah Wen, don’t misunderstand me, I was just warning him not to bother me anymore..."
"Mind your own business."
Li Feiwen had no patience to listen to Jin Xuanxuan’s explanations, turned around, and left her standing there alone.
He needed to change his plan; evidently, An Xiaowan was already involved with Bai Yan, and this was disadvantageous for him, he had to figure out a way to deal with this man!
Filled with bitterness, Jin Xuanxuan watched Li Feiwen turn away and leave, and recalling Bai Yan’s tender gaze towards An Xiaowan, she couldn’t help feeling the bitterness and confusion within.
In that instant, she thought of much.
She thought of her previous haughty mocking towards Bai Yan and her high-standing attitude, she also thought of Li Feiwen’s indifference towards her; she remembered Bai Yan’s past kindness towards her, and thought of An Xiaowan’s gentleness and trust towards Bai Yan...
She wasn’t sure, whether giving up Bai Yan to cling onto Li Feiwen, the "higher branch," was the right decision?
The current Bai Yan wasn’t the clown she thought she knew; he was genuinely entangled with An Xiaowan now! With Bai Yan with An Xiaowan, how could he ever consider a woman like her?
Undoubtedly, compared to An Xiaowan, regardless of popularity, family background, or social standings, Li Feiwen was nowhere close.
Bai Yan was getting better and better, but what about her current self? Had she really Clung onto Li Feiwen, the ’higher branch’?
She was bewildered at this moment.
Many people, only when they truly lose, do they realize the good he had done for them.
