When Wang Xinghe said those words, he felt the air around him suddenly turn cold, as if two cold lights were staring at him.
"Seriously?"
"Mengmeng, listen to me, there really is a reason."
"Want to break up? Fine, then break up! Now leave! Get out of here right now!"
"Mengmeng, can you calm down?" Wang Xinghe tried to reach out to pull Liu Qingmeng, but Liu Qingmeng shook him off.
"You want me to calm down? Fine, this time it was an act, but next time it'll be real? How am I supposed to calm down?"
Wang Xinghe reached out and hugged Liu Qingmeng. Liu Qingmeng struggled in Wang Xinghe's arms, shouting, "Let go of me! Let go of me! You said you were pretending to be someone else's boyfriend, why didn't you just pretend and keep it a secret from me? Why are you telling me now? Isn't it just that you wanted to break up on purpose?"
"Mengmeng, don't move, let me explain." Wang Xinghe whispered in Liu Qingmeng's ear, his breath hot against her skin. Liu Qingmeng instantly felt her legs go weak and she lost all strength.
"Speak, I'll listen to your explanation."
"Wow! I thought these two were going to talk about something on the balcony, but it turned out to be quite a heated argument."
"Yeah, I didn't expect that Wang, the academic genius, would like strong men. I like it; it matches my impression of male protagonists in novels."
"What? You like strong? How about this?" Rong Xu asked, holding Xia Shishi and lifting her chin with his finger.
"Get the hell out of my way! I'm getting goosebumps. Only characters like Mengmeng and Wang, the academic genius, are the main characters in novels. We two are more like the villainous second male and female leads."
"Everyone is the protagonist of their own story, Shishi, you are the protagonist of my story."
"Get lost, get lost! I'm so embarrassed by what you're saying! Don't stop me from watching Mengmeng and Wang the academic genius." Xia Shishi shoved Rong Xu away.
"Why is it that when I'm so affectionate, she's not moved at all?" Rong Xu was still scratching his head, doubting himself.
"It's Sister Xueying, not someone else."
Feeling Liu Qingmeng struggling in his arms again, Wang Xinghe increased his strength a little more.
"Oh, Wang Xinghe, a teacher-student relationship? If this gets out, what do you think you'll do?"
"No, really no, can you let me finish?"
So Wang Xinghe told Liu Qingmeng what had happened yesterday.
"Just to appease her family?"
"Yes, I heard it with my own ears. Sister Xueying had no choice but to give her enough time to break free from their family's control. She is a pitiful person too."
Hearing about Qin Xueying's experience, Liu Qingmeng was reminded of herself. Two months ago, her father almost forced her to be with the young master of the Wu family, despite her objections.
Therefore, Liu Qingmeng felt lucky to have met Wang Xinghe.
"Then go ahead."
Liu Qingmeng left Wang Xinghe's arms.
"Mengmeng, are you still angry?"
"No, I agreed. Go ahead."
"Mengmeng, I'll call Xueying right now and tell her I'm not going."
"Idiot! I said I'm letting you go! If you don't want to help her, then so be it."
"Mengmeng, are you sure you didn't just say that out of anger?"
"I'm not saying this out of anger, but if you dare to take this too seriously, I guarantee you'll never find me again in this lifetime!"
"Mengmeng, I promise! There will absolutely be no real physical contact, not even a hint of it! If there is, may I be hit by a car and die as soon as I step outside!"
"Pah! Pah! Pah! What discouraging things you're saying. You think you're just pretending to be her boyfriend, so there should be some normal physical contact, otherwise it'll just look too fake."
"Mengmeng, you are so kind."
"Alright, it's cold outside, let's go inside."
"Let's go."
Upon seeing Liu Qingmeng and Wang Xinghe return, the two who had been secretly watching quickly returned to the sofa.
"Rongxu, it's getting late, let's go."
"Are you leaving already? Won't you play a little longer?"
"The dorms will be closing soon, and we need to take these things back to the dorms so they can eat them while they're still hot."
"Alright then, Wang, you two can go now."
"Let me know when you're going," Liu Qingmeng said to Wang Xinghe.
"Not so soon, we still have final exams, so we'll be going now."
"Uh-huh."
After Wang Xinghe and Rong Xu left, Xia Shishi pulled Liu Qingmeng along.
"Mengmeng, what were you talking about with Wang, the academic genius, just now? You've been outside for so long."
"It's nothing, just a small matter."
"Is something this trivial that you're so upset about? Something big must have happened. Hurry up! Confess and you'll be treated leniently; resist and you'll be punished severely!"
"He was going to pretend to be someone else's boyfriend, so he told me first."
"What? Pretend to be someone's boyfriend? What's going on? So you agreed?"
I agreed.
"Oh my god! Mengmeng, are you out of your mind?! How could you agree to this? You're such a love-struck fool! What if you agree and it turns out to be real? What will you do then?"
"No, I believe him."
"Tsk tsk tsk, just as I thought, my dear Mengmeng, your love-struck mind is invincible! You're hopeless."
"Alright, let's think about how to deal with all this leftover food."
"Let's put it in the fridge first. We won't need to order takeout for the next few days; we can eat the leftovers."
"I'll call Qinghuan over. Tomorrow's the weekend, let's resolve this together."
"Wow! What a great older sister from Huaxia! She didn't think of her younger sister when there was something good, and let Qinghuan eat the leftovers instead."
"How could this be a bad thing? Such delicious dishes are made by the chefs of the Kyoto Grand Hotel, showcasing their true skills. They're a rare treat. If this girl knew, she'd be overjoyed."
"Yes, yes, you are her older sister, you know her better."
"Of course."
When Wang Xinghe returned with several packing bags, three heads immediately peeked out.
"Old Wang, what are you holding in your hand?!"
"Old Wang, is it delicious?"
"Was our godfather a gift from us?"
"We ordered a bit too much today, and we couldn't finish it all. You guys got to eat it."
Upon hearing that Wang Xinghe had indeed brought it for them, the three cheered and crowded in front of Wang Xinghe.
"Slow down, Lao Li, where are your slippers? You're not even wearing slippers, these are all yours."
There were five dishes, all neatly packaged and untouched. The dishes were exquisite and clearly not cheap.
"Old Wang, you've struck it rich! You ate five dishes and packed up five to go. I don't mean anything by it, you're just rich?"
"What are you talking about? There was just a slight accident. I didn't mean to order so much. Since I ordered too much, it would be a waste to throw it away, so I brought it to you."
"You deserve to be called my godfather!"
"Godfather! This is so delicious! It smells so good!" the three of them exclaimed as they ate.
Wang Xinghe took off his clothes and went to take a shower.
"Guess which restaurant this dish comes from?"
