Chapter 79 It's My Right to Like Whoever I Want



Yang Tian is a very carefree and easygoing teacher who never sits in the classroom during morning and evening self-study sessions.

He directly allowed students to discuss problems during self-study periods, but they couldn't be too loud. If the director came to investigate, he would cancel the policy.

Students strictly adhere to this rule in order to be able to chat freely with their friends.

Occasionally, when the noise got a little loud, Ye Qingyan, as the class monitor, would stand up and stop it.

For example, now.

"Alright, alright, everyone, your voices are a bit too loud. Please keep it down." As soon as Ye Qingyan stood up, everyone realized and consciously lowered their voices.

A few mischievous boys teased Ye Qingyan for a few moments.

"Get lost, you want to get beaten up?" Ye Qingyan waved her fist.

"Hey, the college entrance exam is over. Did Brother Ji say which university he wants to apply to?" Ye Qingyan continued the conversation she hadn't finished with Zhen Tian.

"No." Zhen Tian paused in her drawing, and thought carefully for a moment: "I don't think I asked him."

"How can you be so uncaring about your fiancé!" Ye Qingyan pinched her.

“What fiancé…” Zhen Tian bit her lip, her face turning red again.

"A pure and innocent girl, a pure and innocent girl," Ye Qingyan sighed, typing rapidly on her phone.

Are you still texting the boy from the next class?

"Mmm."

Zhen Tian licked her lips, searching her mind for words of comfort, but to no avail, and instead felt her mind was empty.

Last time, because of her, Ye Qingyan and senior Liu Zheng had a big fight, and Qingyan shattered the ambiguous atmosphere between them. After that, she turned her attention to the boy she had hit on on the basketball court in their first year of high school.

The two maintained their relationship for quite a while, communicating only by phone and occasionally going for walks together.

"Do you like him?" Zhen Tian asked.

Ye Qingyan put away her phone and seemed to think seriously for a moment before answering her question: "I wouldn't say I like him. I think he's quite handsome and humorous, much better than that jerk Liu Zheng. I guess I have a bit of a crush on him."

Just as Zhen Tian was starting to relax, Ye Qingyan's next words jolted her back to reality.

"But I've been a bit bored lately. I discovered there's a hidden gem in the second year of high school. Look, look, here's a picture I secretly took." Ye Qingyan tilted her phone towards her: "He's the cute puppy type, super adorable."

"!!!"

"Isn't it unfair that a boy can be this cute?" Ye Qingyan grinned foolishly as she looked at the photo.

"..."

Zhen Tian moved her lips, but in the end she only said, "Isn't this inappropriate?"

"What's wrong with it?"

Ye Qingyan regained her composure and put her phone back in her backpack.

"You already have Cao Heng, and you still like a senior in the second year of high school. That's not a good idea."

"Here we go again, with this 'white lotus' quote." Ye Qingyan rolled her eyes. "I didn't marry Cao Heng, and I didn't even date him. I'm free to choose my own time now. It's my right to like whoever I want."

Ye Qingyan glanced at Zhen Tian's dazed expression and smiled maliciously: "You don't understand. You should just cherish Senior Ji. That will make your life worthwhile."

"My family didn't give me the chance to meet a childhood sweetheart like this, so I can only rely on myself to pursue happiness~"

Seeing that Zhen Tian was still acting silly, Ye Qingyan straightened her head.

"Go, go, go and paint your picture."

Zhen Tian was dismissed just like that; her not-so-capable brain had already forgotten what the two of them had been discussing.

After school, Zhen Tian saw that tall, slender figure as soon as she stepped out of the classroom.

Girls passing by would pretend to glance back unintentionally, as if out of curiosity or admiration.

Ji Yuzhi has a cool, gentle, and refined appearance. He naturally exudes a detached and aloof air, and everything he does carries an air of indifference and detachment. Ironically, thanks to the poisonous influence of various online novels, young girls find this kind of guy irresistible, and they practically want to stick their eyes to him after seeing him.

However, Ji Yuzhi is also somewhat deceptive. Just by looking at his face, you might sometimes get the illusion that he is easy to talk to. But after getting to know him, you will find that this man is capable of killing you with words alone. The important thing is that he doesn't use foul language, but kills you invisibly with just a few simple words.

As Zhen Tian stood at the door, the image of Ji Yuzhi analyzing the girl's fall using physics principles suddenly came to mind, and she couldn't help but laugh.

Ji Yuzhi leaned against the classroom door, his hands casually in his pockets. Hearing the laughter, he slowly turned around, his previous aloof demeanor vanishing.

"School's out." He took Zhen Tian's backpack, smiling gently.

"Mmm." Zhen Tian nodded and obediently let him lead her downstairs.

Ye Qingyan leaned against the door frame, her hands clasped over her chest: "What an amazing man this is!"

"No, it's a love story from heaven."

"What love? Does Tian Tian look like someone who understands love?" Yuan Yuan said bluntly as she passed by.

"I don't care, it's a fairytale romance." Ye Qingyan snorted and tugged at Yuan Yuan's arm: "Want to get some junk food?"

"No, go home and do your homework."

"Why are you such a rigid woman?"

"Then don't copy my homework tomorrow."

"No, no, no, I'll buy you fries. You're doing your homework at McDonald's, right? I want chicken nuggets..."

"I'm not going."

"Round, round, round..."

...

"My leg is all better, why are you waiting for me at the classroom door?" Zhen Tian took the takoyaki that Ji Yuzhi had just bought in line and stuffed a whole one into her mouth.

The salad, mixed with wasabi and octopus pieces, exploded in her mouth, and her little face scrunched up with delight.

"Slow down." He watched her enjoy the bowl of noodles, patted her head, and then answered her question: "I'm used to it."

"Um?"

I've gotten used to waiting for you at the door.

"profound."

Zhen Tian ate quietly. She blew on the takoyaki stick on the skewer and handed it to Ji Yuzhi: "Here, it's delicious."

"I won't eat it, you eat it."

"Mmm..." Zhen Tian's voice trailed off, and she unconsciously curled her lips upwards at the end: "You eat, you eat."

Ji Yuzhi couldn't resist her charming appearance at all.

He lowered his head and, following her wishes, put the dumpling into his mouth.

The smell of wasabi immediately choked his nostrils, and he couldn't help but cough.

"What's wrong? Is it spicy?" Zhen Tian looked at him helplessly.

"It's okay, it's delicious." Ji Yuzhi cleared his throat and gave her a reassuring smile.

"Right? I knew it would be delicious."

Zhen Tian was easy to fool; he could easily coax her into smiling.

"Where's Dad?" She looked around but didn't see any familiar cars.

“Uncle didn’t come today, so I’ll take you somewhere.” Ji Yuzhi took her hand and hailed a taxi.

"Where are we going?" Zhen Tian asked softly, holding the empty takoyaki box.

You'll know when you get there.
