Chapter 33
Chapter 33 – A Double Rejection? You’re Overdoing It!
Across the room, Yan Ruoxin watched as Ling Tian approached step by step. Seeing Ling Tian’s indifferent expression, she couldn’t help but step back half a pace. The pressure emanating from Ling Tian made her instinctively feel fear and discomfort … She knew she couldn’t deceive Ling Tian!
Immediately, she hastily spoke, “I … I’m Yan Ruoxin, we’ve met before. I was at Lincheng University … we were desk mates for several days!”
As she spoke, Ling Tian stopped, standing right in front of Yan Ruoxin. Hmm … he did indeed go undercover as a student in Lincheng University before to investigate someone. He boldly sat in the classroom back then. No one knew he wasn’t actually a student … There was indeed a very enthusiastic girl who was his desk mate. Yes, it’s the one in front of him now!
“You remember?” Yan Ruoxin, wide-eyed with a hint of fear, looked at Ling Tian and continued, “Actually … I wasn’t a student there at that time; I am now! Actually … you’re my senior!”
“I’m not a student there!” Ling Tian responded.
This left Yan Ruoxin slightly dumbfounded, “Huh?” What does he mean?
“Other than the name being real, everything else is fake!” Ling Tian added. He didn’t deliberately disguise himself because he didn’t need to. Sometimes, not pretending turned out to be the best pretense. Therefore, he was indeed mistaken for a student and misunderstood by Yan Ruoxin!
“Then this …” Yan Ruoxin was speechless on the spot. So … what was all this? The senior she yearned for turned out not to be a senior? She entered Lincheng University thinking of him day and night! And in the end … he wasn’t even a student? What’s going on? Was everything she did in vain?
Yan Ruoxin pursed her lips, momentarily unsure of what to do. After a brief inner struggle, she made a decision! If he wasn’t a student, then so be it. It didn’t mean they couldn’t be together. After all, they were similar in age …
Immediately, Yan Ruoxin hooked her small hand behind her back, a hint of youthful shyness flushing her delicate face. Then, in a hesitant tone, she said, “Whether you’re a student or not doesn’t matter; I … I like you!”
This confession brought complete silence to the living room. She had imagined this countless times … She knew she would ultimately be the one to speak first. So, why not just confess directly!
The evening sun shone through the window, casting its glow on Ling Tian and Yan Ruoxin. At this moment, facing each other, one tall and one short, they formed a beautiful silhouette … Yan Ruoxin’s blushing face looked even more charming in the sunset, even making Lin Yaoyao think that this girl was quite fascinating … Even she felt they were quite compatible …
“I don’t like you!” However, at that moment, Ling Tian casually uttered these words …
So, this girl’s innocence and sincerity were genuine? She didn’t have any ulterior motives? Was this the reason she came looking for him? If that was the case, they could just leave now!
This statement instantly petrified the expectant and shy Yan Ruoxin. No … How could this be? Why was everything different from what she expected? The confession process, everything … was just as she imagined! But the result … was completely opposite!
He … rejected her? And so directly and unequivocally? How could this be?
Following her petrification, Yan Ruoxin’s eyes immediately turned red. Her small chest heaved, seemingly about to burst into tears the next moment …
“Miss …” Even the female bodyguard at the door didn’t know what to do. She could protect Yan Ruoxin from physical harm, but protecting her heart from being hurt … that was beyond her ability. That was beyond anyone’s ability!
Lin Yaoyao still remained silent. In the end, was this girl just wishful thinking? Alas, being in love with someone like Ling Tian, little miss, you’re really unlucky! As for me, I wouldn’t like him …
“Do you … do you like her? Is she your girlfriend?” Yan Ruoxin suddenly pointed her finger at Lin Yaoyao.
“I don’t like her either!” Ling Tian continued without hesitation.
For him, there wasn’t liking or not liking, there was only needing or not needing!
As soon as Ling Tian spoke, Lin Yaoyao was also instantly petrified …
Really? Where did he learn to reject two people at once? A double rejection? You’re overdoing it!
“Then who do you like?” Yan Ruoxin’s voice choked up, “I can change to be what you like! I can do anything!”
Ling Tian couldn’t be bothered to continue this discussion; he just glanced at the bodyguards by the door. The female bodyguard understood; Ling Tian was asking them to leave.
“Miss, let’s go back first!”
She then approached to take Yan Ruoxin away. However, Yan Ruoxin immediately struggled, “I’m not leaving, I …”
Before she finished her words, the bodyguard leaned close to her ear and whispered, “There’s no chance now, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be one in the future. You can’t leave a bad impression!”
Upon hearing this, Yan Ruoxin suddenly realized. That’s right, she couldn’t be capricious and leave a bad impression!
