Chapter 11 Campus Goddess Bai Yueguang 11 Let's Break Up
It was late at night and there was only silence in the house.
Ji Hanlin had already fallen into a deep sleep, but in a trance, he felt the sofa sink slightly.
He opened his eyes as if he realized something, and the person in front of him quietly crawled into his quilt like a bewitched goblin.
The eyes of the girl who couldn't be more familiar to him flickered, hiding a hint of mischief and a smile. Her slender fingers slid casually to his waist. The corners of her mouth raised slightly, and she gently bit the edge of his pants. Her movements were bold and seductive.
Ji Hanlin felt his heartbeat suddenly accelerate, his chest heaving, and his rationality began to collapse in this ambiguous atmosphere.
He tried to struggle, wanted to get up and stop her, but the burning feeling in his body was like a flame, and he could hardly control himself.
Just when desire was about to consume everything, he suddenly opened his eyes.
The familiar ceiling was still before him, and the sky outside the window was already dim. He turned around and saw Wen Qianning's door was still closed. There was no girl in his arms. Everything that had just happened was just a dream.
Ji Hanlin looked down and saw that his pants were wet and slightly stained. Shame instantly washed over his cheeks, and he felt a surge of heat in his chest.
He closed his eyes, his mind mixed, trying to calm himself down. Finally, he got up and walked towards the bathroom as if in compromise.

Wen Qianning was awakened by a few knocks on the door. Before she was fully conscious, she heard Ji Hanlin's voice outside the door: "Ningning, get up."
She got up sleepily, opened the door, and threw herself into his arms.
Ji Hanlin had never been able to resist such clinginess from her, so he could only touch her head helplessly: "If you don't change your clothes and go to school, you'll be late."
Wen Qianning smelled the boy's fresh breath, blinked, and gradually regained consciousness.
"Huh? You took a shower?" Smelling the shower gel, she looked up at him, her eyes full of confusion, "Why are you taking a shower so early in the morning?"
As if he had thought of something, Ji Hanlin was silent for a while and did not answer. He just urged, "Go change your clothes quickly."
"oh……"
After Wen Qianning changed and washed up, they headed to school together. It had stopped raining, but the puddles and dampness still showed that the area had been battered by a storm the previous night.
When they were almost near the school, Wen Qianning stopped and suggested again that they walk separately to avoid being seen together by others.
But this time, Ji Hanlin stood still, staring at Wen Qianning with a somewhat cold expression: "Ningning, I don't want to do this anymore."
"I want to walk with you openly." He lowered his eyes and held her hand tightly. "What are you worried about? If you are worried about being punished by the teacher, our school doesn't have such strict prohibitions on premature love. If you are worried about other students, then there is no need to worry..."
"I know you're very popular and there are a lot of people who like you. But, their opinions don't matter. I just want to be with you openly."
The young man spoke every word, his tone more serious than ever before.
It’s just... she understands his feelings, but if they make their relationship public like in the original storyline, it will only bring bullying to the male protagonist.
"..." Thinking of this, Wen Qianning took a deep breath, cruelly pushed his hand away, and quickly said, "I said I don't want others to know. Okay, okay, I'll go to school first." After that, without waiting for his reaction, she turned around and was about to leave.
Ji Hanlin remained motionless, feeling a pang of loss deep within him. The unspoken plea to stay stuck in his throat. He stared fixedly at her resolute back, not even turning back, and for a moment, his lips curled in self-mockery.

"Ningning? Ningning?"
Bi Shiwen waved his hand in front of her eyes, leaned closer and asked, "What are you daydreaming about? Why didn't you respond when I called you several times just now?"
Wen Qianning came back to her senses and pressed her aching solar plexus. She said in a tired voice, "I was lost in thought just now. What happened?"
"I say..." Bi Shiwen propped up her chin with both hands and said to Wen Qianning, "It's been almost three months now. How's the progress on Ji Hanlin's necklace?"
When this matter was suddenly mentioned, Wen Qianning remembered that Ji Hanlin had given her the necklace last night, and now the necklace was worn around her neck. She subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch the necklace on her neck, but stopped.
"Don't worry," Wen Qianning said calmly, "We'll get it soon."
Bi Shiwen looked at her in surprise and asked, "Really? What method did you use? You didn't just throw money at him to death, did you?"
She was speechless. Ji Hanlin's cold and aloof personality made it clear he wasn't someone who would bow down to a small fortune. However, she didn't want to tell anyone else about what was going on between them, so she simply said, "Whatever it takes, just get it."
*
Considering that she had already obtained the necklace, the plot point would soon be reached, and the mission was about to be completed, Wen Qianning felt that there was no need to contact Ji Hanlin anymore. Therefore, ever since their last unpleasant parting at the school gate, she had begun to deliberately ignore him, deliberately distancing herself from him, and almost cut off all contact with him.
After school at noon, she no longer went to the study room in the third classroom to ask him to help her with tutoring. After school in the afternoon, she always deliberately delayed time to avoid the opportunity to meet him.
After school that afternoon, Wen Qianning packed her things slowly as usual. When most of the class had left, she picked up her backpack and slowly walked out.
As soon as she walked out the door, she suddenly stopped because she saw a person standing at the stairs next to the classroom, as if he had been waiting there for a long time.
Ji Hanlin leaned against the wall, his expression cold and indifferent. He looked as if he didn't want anyone to approach him. Hearing her coming out, he looked up at her and suddenly curled his lips in a sneer, "Why are you deliberately ignoring me? It's been seven days. Ningning, you've been avoiding me for seven days."
Wen Qianning was speechless for a moment, remembering that the last time she replied to his WeChat was indeed a week ago.
"I'm not ignoring you on purpose, nor am I avoiding you. I'm just busy lately." Wen Qianning also imitated his indifferent tone and spoke.
"Really?" He smiled, but there was not much joy on his face, and instead it was a bit chilling. "Then let's go. I'll take you home."
"No thanks." Wen Qianning refused decisively and turned to go downstairs. "My driver is already waiting for me at the school gate."
"I'll take you out of the school gate." Ji Hanlin said, grabbing her hand to prevent her from leaving.
She subconsciously tried to break free, but couldn't.
Wen Qianning gritted her teeth, her tone extremely cold, almost heartless: "How many times do I have to say it, I don't want to walk with you."
He froze, staring at her intently, with unwillingness surging in his eyes.
"Let's talk."
"I have nothing to discuss with you." She shook her head, not wanting to say more. At this moment, footsteps were heard from the stairs, and someone was walking towards them.
Lin Weixi was originally helping a classmate deliver some things to the liberal arts class, but unexpectedly saw Ji Hanlin and... a girl with a cold expression here.
She recognized the girl. Wen Qianning was very famous at Shangde High School because of her good looks and wealth. She had heard about her from her classmates not long after she arrived. But now, the atmosphere between the two of them seemed to be a little tense.
Suddenly, the girl spoke coldly, "Ji Hanlin, let's break up."
The air seemed to freeze at that moment. For about a minute, Ji Hanlin remained silent, still holding her hand tightly and staring at her intently, his eyes seemingly piercing her heart.
Lin Weixi stood at the corner of the stairs, not daring to approach or speak. Although she didn't know what had happened, she realized that she seemed to have witnessed someone else's breakup, and Ji Hanlin's expression was so cold that it made her feel uneasy instinctively.
Wen Qianning exerted her strength and flung his hand away. Her innocent, beautiful face still easily moved and inspired sympathy, but the words she uttered pierced Ji Hanlin's heart like a sharp sword: "Does it really have to be so clear? Can't we both maintain some dignity? Do you understand... I'm completely fed up with you now and don't want to be with you anymore."
Ji Hanlin pursed his lips and uttered a few words with difficulty: "I don't agree."
Wen Qianning smiled, looking very innocent: "Does anyone need mutual consent to break up? I was the one who dumped you. Or, have you fallen in love with me?"
"No way? Are you really in love with me? But I'm just playing around." The girl had a cute and innocent face, but the words she uttered were quite sarcastic, causing Ji Hanlin to silently clench his fists. He opened his mouth, but still said nothing.
"Ji Hanlin, you are not worthy of me."
After Wen Qianning said the last sentence, he glanced at Lin Weixi beside him and left without hesitation.
Although I don’t know why the breakup scene was seen by the heroine, it’s not a big deal, everything will be over soon.
As the plot unfolds, the male protagonist, Ji Hanlin, will soon overcome the shadow of his breakup under Lin Weixi's gentle and considerate persuasion, and will soon be recognized by his biological wealthy family. And she, his white moonlight who cheated on him, naturally means nothing to him. Wen Qianning is just a proof of his humiliation in life.
Lin Weixi, who had witnessed the entire breakup, was deeply shocked. She considered her words and was about to offer comfort, but the cold-blooded young man walked away without even a glance.

After proposing the breakup, Wen Qianning immediately deleted all of Ji Hanlin's contact information. Since they had already fallen out, she was very decisive and cut off all contact with the male protagonist.
By the artificial lake on the west side of Shangde High School, tree branches hang low and the breeze ripples the surface of the lake.
Ji Hanlin stood beside the bench by the lake, staring at the water in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Hey, isn't this Ji Xueshen?" Bi Shiwen looked at him with his arms folded, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
His eyes swept over Bi Shiwen for a moment and ignored him.
She stood in front of him and asked nonchalantly, "Ji Hanlin, do you still recognize this thing?"
Then, she pulled something out of her pocket and shook it. Ji Hanlin was startled, and when he saw a silver necklace, his fingertips curled up slightly.
This is... the necklace he has been wearing since he was a child. After Wen Qianning came to his house, he gave her the necklace.
"Did she give it to you?" Ji Hanlin's eyes suddenly turned cold.
Realizing that Ji Hanlin was referring to Wen Qianning, Bi Shiwen raised an eyebrow and didn't answer his question. Instead, she sarcastically said, "You care about it a lot, don't you? What a pity! Who made you mess with me?"
"What on earth are you so proud of?" Bi Shiwen laughed and said casually, "I just touched this thing last time, and you slapped my hand away. Humph, I even despised this shabby necklace as a gift!"
"What do you want to say?" He clenched his fists secretly and said.
"I want to say..." Bi Shiwen raised her hand, and the necklace drew a beautiful arc, "Don't want this broken necklace anymore."
The next second, her fingers loosened. The necklace fell into the water, creating a small ripple before quickly sinking to the bottom of the lake. The lake quickly returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
Seeing the necklace being thrown into the lake, Ji Hanlin stood there without moving.
The school's artificial lake is large. Although not very deep, there are several hidden pipes underneath the lake, and the water is always flowing. Obviously, if a small object is thrown into the lake, it is unrealistic to retrieve it first.
Ji Hanlin's lashes, which had been lowered slightly, slowly lifted, his gaze settling on the spot where the necklace had fallen into the lake. The wind blew through his hair, brushing across his forehead, and the boy's face was extremely cold and silent.
He suddenly smiled.
The smile was light, yet piercingly cold: "If this is how you humiliate me..."
"Congratulations, you've succeeded." Ji Hanlin said expressionlessly, each word clearly emphasized. "I should have known that you enjoy teasing others and taking pleasure in it. I shouldn't have had any expectations of her."
