When he saw her leave, Li Xuyi couldn’t help but furrow his brows.
Why was she different from other girls?
She gave him something and wasn’t angry at all. She left just like that?
With his many years of experience, if it had been any other girl, she would have definitely started acting coquettishly and pestering him.
How could Xu Wanwan be like that? She gave him food and refused to admit that she liked him.
“Since you don’t like the cookies that Wanwan made, then I’ll enjoy them for you.” Chen San said as he reached out to take the cookies from the table.
Li Xuyi pushed his hand away. “Don’t touch my things!”
“Didn’t you say that you don’t want them? How did they become your things again?”
“Nonsense, I bought them with my charisma. Why should I give them to you?”
Chen San saw through his thoughts at a glance. “If you want to take her, then take her. Stop pretending.”
After school in the afternoon, Xu Wanwan informed the driver to pick her up early. She packed her bag and walked to the school gate.
In the distance, there was a commotion at the school gate. The crowd was all gathered together, being noisy and disorderly.
From afar, Xu Wanwan could see the rose petals scattered on the ground, forming a heart. Someone was standing in the middle of it.
Lin Jianan complained quietly, “What’s going on? Could it be that someone is proposing in school?”
Xu Wanwan looked at the situation and nodded. “It might be.”
“So rustic, ah.” Lin Jianan could not help but say, “What era is this? Why are they still using rose petals to form a loving heart…”
Xu Wanwan thought the same in her heart, but she did not say anything. After all, it was someone else’s matter.
The two of them walked around the crowd and did not plan to watch the show.
“Xu Wanwan!”
A familiar voice sounded behind them, and the people around them began to jeer.
Xu Wanwan’s body stiffened. After a long while, she turned around and saw Zhao Zixuan walking toward her with a bouquet of flowers.
The people around her gradually surrounded her, and the scene became even livelier. Many people raised their phones to capture this scene.
Xu Wanwan did not react. She frowned and looked at Zhao Zixuan. “What are you doing now?”
“You must like the surprise prepared for you today, right?”
Zhao Zixuan was immersed in his own world and looked pleased. “Wanwan, I’ve owed you too much in the past. I’ll definitely make it up to you in the future.”
Xu Wanwan’s face suddenly turned red. Being in the crowd, she became more and more embarrassed.
She had never expected Zhao Zixuan to do this in public.
There was some anger in her tone. “Are you deliberately making me look bad?”
“How could you make a fool of yourself?” Zhao Zixuan argued, “Do you know how long I’ve been laying out the petals of the western rose petals? I know you’ve never received flowers before, so I specially bought a huge bouquet of roses just to let you experience my stature.”
“Look at the people around you taking photos of you. You should be happy.”
Xu Wanwan took a deep breath and said with a sullen face, “I’m asking you to leave now and stop pestering me.”
Not far away, Chen San was standing in a corner of the crowd. When he saw the scene before him, he clenched his fists so tightly that he could not help but want to rush forward.
Li Xuyi pulled him back and teased, “It’s so exciting. Take a look.”
“What are you still looking at?” Chen San was getting angry. “Can’t you see that Wanwan is getting angry? That man must be harassing her.”
“Later, if he gets physical with Wanwan, you’d better not stop me.”
Li Xuyi snorted coldly. Although he looked nonchalant, his eyes darkened.
On the other side, Zhao Zixuan forcefully stuffed the bouquet into Xu Wanwan’s hands. Then, he knelt down on one knee and took out a ring from his pocket.
“I know you’ve always wanted to marry me. In the past, it was me who didn’t understand your thoughts, but now I understand.”
“The ring is ready. After you wear it, the Zhao family will go to the Xu family to propose marriage. We can settle the marriage as soon as possible.”
The surrounding crowd that was watching the commotion instantly started to coax and make noise.
“Marry him, marry him!”
“The person proposed to should be this year’s top scorer in Science, right? Looks like there are still many people chasing after the top scorer.”
“But the person who is chasing after her is almost interesting. She is the top scorer after all. Why did he prepare such a small diamond ring?”
“Forget it. Since he has already proposed, it means that she has feelings for him. Let’s help him.”
Immediately after, everyone on the stage started shouting, “Marry him!”
Xu Wanwan thought that she had a good temper, but this time, she could not control her anger. She growled, “Are you done? I said that it was already impossible for us to be together. Why are you still bothering me?”
Zhao Zixuan did not want to lose face. After being yelled at by her, he said unhappily, “I came over to propose to you out of kindness. What do you mean by that?”
“You just broke up with me, and you came to find me. What do you take me for? A spare tire?” Xu Wanwan mercilessly exposed him. “Put away your hypocritical feelings. I don’t care.”
After saying that, she threw away the flowers in her arms and turned to leave.
Zhao Zixuan was unwilling to give up. He chased after her and grabbed her wrist. “Xu Wanwan, don’t go too far. You’re just a country girl. Have you ever seen such a spectacle?”
“I’ve given you enough face, and you’re treating me like this?”
Xu Wanwan laughed lightly, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes. It was so cold that it was frightening. “It seems that Young Master Zhao isn’t very generous. It’s just a bunch of flowers and a small diamond ring, and you want to buy people’s hearts?”
“I finally understand. Didn’t you just complain that I gave you too little?”
Zhao Zixuan said unhappily, “Xu Wanwan, I didn’t realize that you were so materialistic. Looks like I was wrong about you.”
“But it’s okay, I have money. One day, you’ll agree to it.”
Hmph, she was just a country girl. She hadn’t seen much of the world, so what right did she have to reject him?
However, he liked the feeling of not being able to get something. Since she wanted something more expensive, he could satisfy her.
Xu Wanwan did not want to tangle with him at all. She said directly, “I don’t care how expensive your gift is. Give up on this idea as soon as possible.”
After saying that, she turned around and left without giving him any face.
Zhao Zixuan was really furious. He rushed forward and grabbed her shoulder. He lowered his voice and said, “We’re outside. I advise you to give me some face.”
Xu Wanwan raised her voice. “Let go of me!”
“Agree to my proposal first. I’ll give you what you want later.”
Xu Wanwan said coldly, “I won’t!”
“Good, very good. Just reject me like that.” Zhao Zixuan’s tone was fierce. “Then don’t even think about leaving today. If you want me to lose face, you will lose it too.”
The two of them were in a stalemate. Neither of them was willing to back down.
Chen San couldn’t stand it anymore. He couldn’t stand it anymore. He squeezed into the crowd and was about to rush in.
Just as he was about to rush in, a black shadow flashed in front of him.
Li Xuyi stepped into the crowd first. He walked directly to Zhao Zixuan and without saying anything, he raised his hand and gave him a fierce punch.
“Who do you think you are? You have the nerve to propose to others?” His tone was full of disdain and contempt.
Zhao Zixuan backed up, his nose bleeding from the side of his face, and said incredulously, “Where did you come from? Who are you to hit me?”
