Before Ye Tianfan's voice fell, Lin Xiaofeng shook the love letter in his hand, grabbed him, and briskly walked toward the cafeteria, saying as they walked, "Hurry up, the beauty is in the cafeteria."
In the cafeteria?
This beauty is quite unique, isn't she? Most people would first check out their dormitory when transferring to a new school, but this beauty somehow got her wires crossed and came to the cafeteria first?
Ye Tianfan seriously doubted this beauty's intelligence. At the same time, seeing the love letter in Lin Xiaofeng's hand, he couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. It seemed the person more unreliable than the beauty was the one beside him.
"I say, Lin Xiaofeng, what age is this? You're still using love letters? That's pretty retro!"
Upon hearing Ye Tianfan's words, Lin Xiaofeng's mouth twitched, and he replied, "Man, if I had that beauty's WeChat, would I still write a love letter?"
"Then you should ask for her WeChat first, build some rapport, and then confess your feelings, step by step, got it?"
After hearing Ye Tianfan's words, Lin Xiaofeng immediately rolled his eyes and said, "Brother, you don't get it. A graceful lady is a gentleman's desire! Especially one as popular as Qin Ruomeng, she's a hot commodity! As they say, the only thing faster than martial arts is wooing women. You have to make the first move, or you'll never even see her shadow!"
Listening to Lin Xiaofeng's "earnest teachings," the two squeezed into Kyoto University's cafeteria. Usually, there weren't many people around, but today it was packed, mostly with boys, and a handful of girls joining in for the fun.
Seeing the bustling scene, Ye Tianfan immediately frowned. A woman who could attract so many boys was definitely a trouble magnet. Regardless of her looks, the ability to cause such chaos was utterly similar to Qin Ruomeng! Such a woman, no matter how pretty, was untouchable—dangerous, and she might ruin you for life!
"Quick, she's right up there, hurry!" Lin Xiaofeng urged Ye Tianfan to speed up as he squeezed his way forward.
Just then, a charming voice suddenly floated out from the crowd, "I've been looking for you all morning, I knew you'd come here."
As the voice finished, the crowd parted, revealing Huang Xiaorou gracefully walking toward Ye Tianfan.
Unlike her look at the bar before, this time Huang Xiaorou had already taken off the heavy makeup and only had light makeup on, perfectly accentuating her naturally beautiful face.
One must admit, disregarding personality, solely based on looks, Huang Xiaorou was indeed not inferior to Qin Ruomeng.
"Here she comes, here she comes! See that? That's charisma! Luckily, I prepared a love letter, or I would've missed the chance!" Lin Xiaofeng muttered excitedly in Ye Tianfan's ear in a low voice.
But by now, Ye Tianfan was frowning tightly, realizing that Huang Xiaorou's intentions were not friendly! Remembering the scene from the bar, Ye Tianfan's head started to throb. This little girl probably intended to cling to him!
Can't let her succeed! Must think of a plan quickly!
With a quick thought, Ye Tianfan came up with an idea. Since Lin Xiaofeng liked her, why not do him a favor and keep things relaxed for himself?
"Lin Xiaofeng, the opportunity is right in front of you, make sure to seize it! Such a godsend chance doesn't come daily, I'll step aside and give you space!"
Hearing Ye Tianfan's words, Lin Xiaofeng immediately gave him a thumbs-up in his heart.
The saying goes, brothers fight together, just like family; to take down a tiger, brothers are needed, and Ye Tianfan was truly brotherly! To stand firm in the face of beauty, that's something only a true friend could do!
Brother, if I win over this beauty, I'll definitely thank you personally!
Lin Xiaofeng thought emotionally, watching as Huang Xiaorou walked up to him. Just as he was about to hand her the love letter, she never even glanced at him, but instead called out to the turning Ye Tianfan, "Ye Tianfan, I like you!"
"Boom!"
Lin Xiaofeng felt as if struck by lightning, his passionate heart shattered instantly, still holding the love letter in his hand, while Huang Xiaorou had already confessed to Ye Tianfan.
The only thing faster than martial arts is wooing women!
Lin Xiaofeng had just said this, but immediately got slapped in the face by reality. Fast indeed, but it was Huang Xiaorou who acted fast! Lin Xiaofeng couldn't have imagined in his dreams that Huang Xiaorou could move so quickly that he hadn't even lifted the hand holding the love letter before she confessed to Ye Tianfan!
What the heck is happening!
Lin Xiaofeng looked at the love letter in his hand, his face showing nothing but awkwardness, and could only hum a tune to relieve his embarrassment while painfully tearing the love letter into pieces and throwing it into the trash.
At this moment, countless pairs of eyes in the cafeteria were fixed on Ye Tianfan. The new school belle was publicly confessing to Ye Tianfan in the cafeteria—a piece of explosive news spreading throughout Kyoto University within ten seconds, shaking social media circles and WeChat groups alike.
"Damn Ye Tianfan, why is it him again! I'm gonna get him!"
"Damn it, after school, I'm gonna block him. If I don't beat him to a pulp, I'll go and fight the fan instead!"
First with Qin Ruomeng's ambiguous act with Ye Tianfan on the sports field, and now Huang Xiaorou publicly confessing in the cafeteria. At this moment, Ye Tianfan had thoroughly become the arch-enemy of all the male students at Kyoto University!
Meanwhile, in a corner of the cafeteria, Su Yueyi quietly eating, already had tears dripping into her bowl. With yesterday night's Lee Zexi incident, and today's sudden confession from Huang Xiaorou, it felt like her beloved brother Tianfan was drifting further and further away.
Yet, what could Su Yueyi do? In terms of looks, she couldn't compare to Huang Xiaorou. Family-wise, Huang Xiaorou was a high-born young lady, while she was just a small girl selling beef noodles, able only to silently wish Ye Tianfan happiness in her heart.
With tears streaming down her face, Su Yueyi nearly buried her face in the bowl, gulping down her meal as quickly as possible, then mumbled, "Brother Tianfan, I wish you happiness," and ran out of the cafeteria with tears in her eyes.
"Ye Tianfan, I like you!"
Just after Su Yueyi ran out of the cafeteria, Huang Xiaorou's voice rang again, as if worried others hadn't heard, raising her volume a few notches.
Ye Tianfan instinctively furrowed his brows, thinking that Huang Xiaorou, a young lady, was even bolder than an old lady from Northeast China! This fiery personality, like that of a little chili pepper, was surely going to drive him crazy!
Must decline firmly! Otherwise, this situation could get real ugly, as Ye Tianfan could sense a vague unease. Qin Ruomeng was probably on her way to the cafeteria right now!
This cafeteria was different from the bar. If two major campus beauties quarreled here over him publicly, there's no way he'd have peace at Kyoto University afterward!
Thinking this, Ye Tianfan immediately said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Huang, I don't like you."
As soon as he said this, the entire cafeteria erupted, with some cursing Ye Tianfan for being foolish, while others laughed with schadenfreude, relieved that Ye Tianfan hadn't accepted, leaving them a chance.
But none were happier than Lin Xiaofeng, who looked at Ye Tianfan, gave him a heavy pat on the shoulder, thinking he truly was his solid bud. Knowing that Lin Xiaofeng liked Huang Xiaorou, Ye Tianfan had decisively rejected her confession. Where else could you find such a loyal bro?
"It's okay if you don't like me for now; I've officially enrolled at Kyoto University, and there is plenty of time for you to fall for me slowly."
Faced with Ye Tianfan's straightforward rejection, Huang Xiaorou wasn't surprised. A man who could make Qin Ruomeng so anxious and off guard couldn't be that easily won over. Had it been so easy, Huang Xiaorou would've been disappointed since an unchallenging man wasn't her type!
As Huang Xiaorou's beautiful eyes lingered on Ye Tianfan, the cafeteria once again buzzed with exclamations. Some even stood on the cafeteria benches to see outside, exclaiming, "Oh my god, is today some auspicious day? Even Miss Qin is here in the cafeteria!"
