The air was silent, and time seemed to stand still.

Wu Youyou didn't react for a long time, nor did she reach out to take the gift in front of her.

Seeing her vacant eyes, Shi Zhan wondered if she didn't like the gift he had given her. He frowned slightly, his rosy lips parted slightly, then closed again, and he slowly withdrew his arm.

Wu Youyou watched as the Qilin that had been offered to her was now moving away from her sight.

As Shi Zhan was about to take it back, she became somewhat nervous, as if she had some inexplicable feeling about that Qilin.

Wu Youyou stared at it, a hint of reluctance in her eyes.

“I really like this valuable item, but I don’t know why you gave me this Qilin pendant.”

Shi Zhan's slightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed. She liked this gift! This was the voice in his heart.

Shi Zhan took two steps forward and personally put the Qilin pendant on Wu Youyou's head. Instantly, her face turned red.

Shi Zhan took a step back and looked at the Qilin pendant hanging on Wu Youyou's chest, which emitted a faint green light under the night lamplight.

He was very satisfied, and a smile finally appeared on his face. This smile stunned Wu Youyou; she had never realized he looked so handsome when he smiled.

Shi Zhan's gentle voice then rang out.

“Youyou, this jade pendant is something I’ve worn since I was little. It has a spirit and can protect you. At the same time, it’s also a symbol of our family. No matter what happens in the future, the Shi family’s power will be at your disposal to protect you!”

Wu Youyou was overjoyed. This meant that she had obtained a trump card, which would at least provide a strong layer of protection should her family encounter any misfortune in the future.

Thinking of this, Wu Youyou instantly felt that this gift was truly precious. She looked at Shi Zhan with a somewhat excited expression.

"Shi Zhan, thank you so much for such a precious gift. Tell me what you want, and I'll give you everything I have!"

Shi Zhan's lips curled slightly. After pondering for a moment, he had only one request for Wu Youyou.

"I want you to promise me something!"

"I'll agree to anything, not just one, but a hundred."

Wu Youyou looked at him with delight.

"I want you to promise me that as long as I'm around, you can't fall in love with anyone else or date anyone else!"

"ah……"

"What? You can't do it!"

"No!" Wu Youyou was somewhat surprised. "There's only one condition? If you can't accept it, add a few more!"

"Can you please agree?"

Seeing Shi Zhan's determination, Wu Youyou quickly said to him,

"Sure, I definitely can! What's so difficult about that? It's just not dating, I can do that!"

Shi Zhan remained silent for a while, then, feeling it still wasn't enough, he added more conditions.

"If you have someone you like while I'm around, you have to tell me immediately. Whether or not you want to date them is up to me!"

Wu Youyou looked into Shi Zhan's eyes and seemed to see her older brother through the world reflected in them. The fact that the two of them were saying the same thing showed how afraid they were of being deceived.

Wu Youyou immediately straightened her posture and looked at Shi Zhan with a serious expression.

"If I ever find someone I like in the future, I'll tell you right away, I promise!"

Shi Zhan nodded in satisfaction before speaking to her in a deep voice.

"It's getting late, get some rest!"

......

Friday is usually a very exciting day for students because after Friday, it's the weekend. Some students go home, some stay overnight, and some go shopping with friends.

However, for Liu Xiaolan, her extracurricular time was completely filled with Shi Zhan's arrangements. As Liu Xiaolan's principle was to prioritize learning, she was very excited and couldn't wait to start tutoring with Wu Youyou.

Wu Youyou went to class, finished class, and went to lunch as usual, thinking that the day would end peacefully.

In the afternoon, the last class was physical education, and everyone had free time on the playground.

It was a bit hot, so she sat alone under a tree to cool off, and gradually, she closed her eyes.

Suddenly, she heard a rapid sound of footsteps.

By the time Wu Youyou opened her eyes and tried to see who it was, Liu Xiaolan had already run up to her, panting and shouting.

"Youyou, something's happened!"

After saying that, he pointed to Yang Min, who had a gloomy face, behind him.

Wu Youyou looked in the direction Yang Min was looking at her as if she were being asked to pay a debt.

Wu Youyou quickly stood up, looking at the two of them with a puzzled expression.

What's wrong with you two?

After Liu Xiaolan calmed down a bit, she felt that she could speak normally again, and Yang Min pulled her to the side.

Wu Youyou saw Yang Min angrily questioning her.

"Wu Youyou, do you like Wei Zhibin?"

"..." Wu Youyou looked completely bewildered. "What are you talking about? How could I like him!"

Liu Xiaolan was a little anxious.

"You're in the news! You're on the front page!"

Is it because of yesterday's acid attack that it's making the headlines?

I'm a victim, so even if it gets out, it won't have a bad impact on me!

Wu Youyou took the phone from Liu Xiaolan with a puzzled look and looked at Toutiao (a Chinese news and information platform).

≠Wei Zhibin's new girlfriend exposed≠

≠Wei Zhibin's girlfriend just turned 18≠

≠Wu Youyou dated Wei Zhibin while she was a minor≠

......

Soon, rumors surfaced online that Wu Youyou had also had an abortion, and that the child was suspected to be Wei Zhibin's. Immediately, all sorts of rumors about Wu Youyou spread like wildfire, with all sorts of speculations.
