Then I'll see how she cries.
Zhang Yuhan was furious and exasperated inside.
But as a schemer, she wouldn't act rashly.
She knew exactly what she should do right now!
She wouldn't tear off her mask with He Li and abandon wealth.
She would only suppress this resentment and dissatisfaction deep in her heart.
Only when her goal was achieved later would she take her revenge!
"Calm down, Yu Han, you are someone who is going to marry into a wealthy family."
"How can you succeed without some tolerance? Endure it, just endure a little longer!"
"You must perform well enough to truly enter the hearts of those Young Masters of wealthy families and manipulate them step by step!" Forcing herself to calm down, Zhang Yuhan managed a stiff smile.
"You are so good to your girlfriend."
"Just because you were afraid she'd overthink it, you rejected me like that."
"But this is truly the model of a good man!"
"You are so wonderful, you almost made my heart flutter."
As she spoke, she seemed to gradually regain her composure.
He Li was a little surprised. Goodness, she could still speak nicely to him calmly after being slapped in the face like that? Damn, this woman is formidable; her level is much higher than Liu Yuyan's.
If others encountered a woman like this, they might truly be captivated by her eventually.
Unfortunately, her little tricks were useless against him.
He Li didn't even bother to respond to her anymore; his gaze turned toward Miao Xiaoyu, who had returned with food not far away.
Beads of sweat still clung to her small face.
"I bought you your favorite dishes!"
"And something to drink, look..."
Coming to He Li's side, Miao Xiaoyu chattered away while presenting the fragrant food. Seeing this, He Li smiled, holding a small fan, and said, "Sit down and talk, I'll fan you!"
A gentle breeze blew from his side, and Miao Xiaoyu immediately showed a comfortable expression as she helped He Li open the drink cap.
"Oh right, what were you two talking about just now?"
Sitting next to He Li, Miao Xiaoyu was curious.
With her chopsticks, she picked up his favorite dishes for He Li.
He Li shrugged: "Your boyfriend is too handsome!"
"See, I just got hit on, but how could I look at anyone else when I have such a beautiful little girlfriend like you? So I just rejected her. Aren't you going to quickly praise your loyal boyfriend?"
Hearing this, Miao Xiaoyu looked up at the embarrassed Zhang Yuhan.
Then she said, her small face blushing, "Praise for what?"
"Isn't... isn't this just what boyfriends and girlfriends should do?"
"If someone hit on me, I would reject them for you too!"
Her voice was soft and sweet, yet firm.
He Li smiled in response: "That makes sense!"
As he spoke, he tucked a few strands of dark hair behind Miao Xiaoyu's ear.
The two chatted and laughed, their actions intimate and affectionate.
They looked just like a loving young couple... doing little things for each other.
Those things looked mundane but were very sweet.
Many people around them watched until their eyes turned red... "Holy hell, are they just boyfriend and girlfriend? They look like an old married couple!"
"Why aren't my girlfriend and I this sweet?"
"Confirmed, this is the love I envy!"
"This is hilarious, they are so loving and sweet, yet someone just tried to be a third party!"
"Beautiful girl, if he doesn't want you, I do! Choose me!"
"Give me a break, you're not as handsome as him!"
He Li and Miao Xiaoyu ignored the discussions of others. The two happily ate lunch and discussed various things, but none of the people around them were calm inside... Although Wu Gang was already used to this couple showing off affection.
Every time he saw it, he still felt a sour envy.
Zhou Qingming was even more affected. Although he had limited contact with He Li, he could see the affection between He Li and Miao Xiaoyu. He was already extremely envious of the love between He Li and Miao Xiaoyu.
Now, with this old-couple-style sweet critical hit, he immediately felt terrible.
A kind of obsession called sweet love... was crazily growing in his heart!
He felt that having witnessed He Li and Miao Xiaoyu's love so often.
He might find it hard to casually approach women again in this life.
Mainly, the moment he did, he would think of this young couple... Thinking of their sweet happiness, and then looking at the woman beside him who only cared about money, he felt incredibly lonely and desolate. At this moment, he suddenly regretted meeting He Li and Miao Xiaoyu.
If he hadn't met these two guys... he might still be happily indulging in pleasure and debauchery.
He wouldn't even be thinking about sweet love at all!
And besides Wu Gang and Zhou Qingming, the person most severely wounded by He Li and Miao Xiaoyu on the scene had to be Zhang Yuhan!
Looking at the loving appearance of He Li and Miao Xiaoyu.
She felt like she had been a clown moments before.
Especially hearing the ridicule from the surrounding people... Envy, jealousy, resentment, anger, and grievance constantly grew in her heart.
She envied the relationship between He Li and Miao Xiaoyu.
She was also human and hoped for a sweet love.
But she had never encountered it. The men she met before were all driven by lust, coming for her looks and figure. So she was also jealous: why could He Li and Miao Xiaoyu find each other?
Why were they so happy? Why couldn't she, who worked so hard, ever find her true love?
Surrounding her... there were only ugly guys, poor ghosts, and repulsive men.
The tall, rich, and handsome man of true love never appeared!
She also resented and was angry at He Li for embarrassing and shaming her, and at the same time, she felt wronged that she, such a beautiful young girl, had shamelessly tried to please He Li, yet he gave her no face and bullied her.
Furthermore, no one around was speaking up for her.
"Why? I was just bravely pursuing love!"
"What did I do wrong? So what if he has a girlfriend?"
"If they aren't married, I still have a chance! They should be encouraging and supporting me for being so brave and proactive!"
"Why are they still mocking me right now?"
Zhang Yuhan pursed her lips. She glanced around, then looked at He Li and Miao Xiaoyu, who completely ignored her, and finally retreated silently back to her seat without saying a word.
At this time, Song Lan also returned from outside.
"Yu Han, how did it go?" she asked as soon as she arrived.
Zhang Yuhan forcefully suppressed her anger and shook her head.
At the same time, she retorted, "What about you?"
"I asked you to help me stall his girlfriend for a bit longer."
"Why did she come back so fast?"
"I..." Song Lan said helplessly, "I did want to stall her."
"But, don't look at her gentle and obedient appearance next to Top Scholar He Li. That woman is fierce and cold outside. I was scolded by her the moment I approached and tried to say something."
"She... she even said... even said..."
Song Lan gritted her teeth, seeming hesitant.
Zhang Yuhan frowned: "What else did she say?"
"She said..." Song Lan swallowed and said, "She told us to quickly give up those useless thoughts, saying... saying that you couldn't catch He Li's eye, and even if given a chance, it wouldn't be useful!"
Hearing this, Zhang Yuhan gnashed her teeth almost to the point of breaking them.
But soon she was suspicious: "How did she know what we were planning?"
"I don't know!" Song Lan shook her head blankly.
Little did they know, Miao Xiaoyu was also an academic genius who scored 700 points.
She was also a Young Miss from a wealthy family, and she had met many people.
Miao Xiaoyu had guessed Zhang Yuhan's little scheme with just one glance back as she left. Miao Xiaoyu didn't turn back to stop her because she simply didn't view Zhang Yuhan as a rival.
She... wasn't worthy!
If it weren't for Liu Yuyan having some emotional foundation with He Li.
Miao Xiaoyu might even feel that Liu Yuyan wasn't worthy!
These people couldn't shake her relationship with He Li.
However, Zhang Yuhan was truly provoked now.
"Hmph, so what if she's a little prettier and moved a little faster?"
"What's so great about that? If I had met He Li first, it's uncertain who would have won!"
She said bitterly. Song Lan weakly asked, "Then... Yu Han, should we give up?"
"Give up? Those two words aren't in Zhang Yuhan's dictionary!"
She said coldly, "That woman dares to look down on me?"
"Then I will deliberately steal her man!"
"When the time comes, I'll see how she cries!"
