Ji Wanmei nodded and said seriously, "Yes, I want to talk to you for a few minutes."
Upon hearing this, Lei Tingjun's two brothers were dumbfounded.
When did the Oriental Pearl Tower become so familiar with their boss?!
This is truly explosive news!
Lei Tingjun stared at her with his dark eyes for a moment, then lowered his head to pinch the back of his neck before turning to his two brothers and nodding at them: "You two go first."
The two men glanced back and forth between Lei Tingjun and Ji Wanmei a few times, then exchanged knowing glances and left.
Once they were alone under the shade of the tree, Lei Tingjun glanced at Ji Wanmei, who was standing prettily opposite him, and stopped staring directly at her face.
He was very tall, at least 1.85 meters, and his muscular arms, visible through his white short-sleeved shirt, were very firm. Ji Wanmei, who was petite, only reached his chin, and he exuded an indescribable arrogance and aggression.
Although he appears nonchalant, it seems to be nothing more than a male leopard's camouflage and a brief rest. Once prey enters his territory, he will immediately become poised to strike.
At this moment, his tall figure leaned casually against the tree trunk, his left leg propped up on the trunk, and he reached into his jeans pocket to take out a cigarette case, taking out a cigarette to light.
When Ji Wanmei saw him about to light a cigarette, she subconsciously frowned.
Seeing this, Lei Tingjun paused in taking out his lighter, held the cigarette between two fingers, and looked up: "What does Miss want with me?"
Ji Wanmei clasped her hands in front of her and cleared her throat: "Lei Tingjun, how old are you this year?"
Lei Tingjun subtly raised an eyebrow, pressed his tongue against his teeth, and said in a deep, resonant voice, "Twenty-four, what's wrong?"
He put his hands in his pockets, propped himself up from the tree trunk, took a long stride, and walked closer to Ji Wanmei. He casually looked down at her, exuding a wild aura: "Could it be that Miss wants to date me?"
The 20-centimeter height difference between the two immediately made Ji Wanmei feel oppressed.
But she wasn't afraid of him at all.
She knew that this man only appeared wild and untamed on the surface, but he was actually loyal and affectionate by nature. The reason he had become the way he was was because of his bad experiences in his youth.
She mustered her courage and looked up, her clear, bright eyes meeting his directly.
When Lei Tingjun saw Ji Wanmei's delicate and jade-like face so close to his eyes, he was caught off guard, his breath caught in his throat, and he abruptly looked away.
His wheat-colored skin was flushed with a suspicious redness at the base of his ears, but he put on an impatient look, irritably stubbed out the cigarette between his fingers and stuffed it back into his pocket: "Get to the point!"
"Lei Tingjun, I have some college entrance exam review materials. Do you want to take a look?"
Lei Tingjun frowned and turned his head, giving Ji Wanmei a half-smile: "Miss, why did you stop me for no reason, just to talk to me about this?"
He smirked: "I heard that Miss Ji got her admission letter to a top city university. She'll be a highly educated intellectual from now on. Why is she hanging out with us thugs all the time?"
After saying that, he gave her a long, meaningful look, then turned and left.
Lei Tingjun couldn't describe his feelings at that moment; he just felt extremely agitated.
His left hand, still tucked into his pocket, was tightly clutching the hair clip he had been carrying there all along. He had such a good opportunity, yet he still hadn't given it to her.
He chuckled to himself, realizing he probably wouldn't have the chance to give it away in his lifetime.
She was the high-ranking daughter of a factory director, while he was just a poor boy with nothing.
People from two different worlds.
As Ji Wanmei watched Lei Tingjun's figure gradually disappear into the distance, she didn't know what she was thinking at that moment. Before her mind could even process it, the words had already slipped out: "Lei Tingjun! If you can get into university, I'll date you!"
Lei Tingjun suddenly stopped, his whole body frozen in place.
After a long pause, he lit a cigarette, turned around with a fierce look in his eyes, and said, "What did you say? Say it again."
Ji Wanmei remained standing still, only pursing her lips and softly repeating what she had just said: "If you can get into university, I'll date you."
Lei Tingjun frowned. He finished half a cigarette in one go before bending down to throw the butt out and stomping it out. He strode towards Ji Wanmei and said fiercely, "You're not messing with me, are you?"
Ji Wanmei shook her head. Why would she play him for a fool?
She was thinking that Lei Tingjun was twenty-four this year. If he enrolled in a night school and studied hard, he might be able to get into a junior college in two years. This way, he could prevent the tragedies that happened in their previous life, change his and her own fate, and...
Ji Wanmei subtly lifted her eyelashes and glanced at the man opposite her.
He wasn't much older than her, and he was tall and handsome. In short, he was a better person than that scumbag Yang Zhiping. If she got to know him before graduation and genuinely felt that he was reliable, then marrying him wouldn't be out of the question.
This is how I repay the debt of gratitude he owed me for saving my life in my past life.
This time, Ji Wanmei was confident that she wouldn't misjudge the situation.
When Lei Tingjun saw her shake her head, his heart suddenly started pounding. He reached into his pants pocket and pinched the hair clip, his gaze sweeping over her two shiny black braids.
"You better keep your word. Once I pass the exam, don't go back on your word!" His tone was somewhat bluffing.
"Of course I keep my word, but the condition is that you have to get into university," Ji Wanmei said seriously.
Lei Tingjun suddenly grinned, a bright and dazzling smile. His pearly white teeth added a touch of charisma to his handsome face. He reached into his pocket, pulled out a hair clip, and placed it in her hand: "Alright, you wait here, I'm going to take the exam right now!"
Ji Wanmei looked down and saw a crystal hair clip shaped like a bow in her palm.
When she looked up again, she found that Lei Tingjun had already walked backwards into the distance, waving his hands at her with a radiant expression on his face. The heroic spirit of a young man was evident in his words, and he even shouted to her, "Ji Wanmei, you wait!"
Remembering that he had left those two younger brothers earlier, Ji Wanmei quickly said, "Lei Tingjun, you're not allowed to fight."
Lei Tingjun had already crossed the road; it was unclear whether he had heard anything.
Ji Wanmei held the hair clip he had given her, and after a moment, she smiled gently.
Okay, Thunder Army, I'm waiting for you.
