Just like that, he was ensnared, a model student, a Five Good youth, and a foul-mouthed bad girl wrapped around him. From that moment on, they became the biggest talk of Jiangzhou University, unfolding a scene every day: Master Ning, who everyone kept their distance from, loitered around the school all day long, and even openly claimed to be Ye Feng, the school hunk’s girlfriend, accompanying him to classes and meals. She cheered for him when he played basketball and, of course, any girl who dared to confess their feelings to him would be cursed out by Master Ning, leaving them to hang their heads low and walk humbly through school thereafter. A school beauty was unhappy that such a pure and upright school hunk had been tainted by this kind of woman and took it upon herself to "rescue" him. That time, the school beauty completely disparaged Ning Zijin. Ning Zijin sat on the railing of the sports field, slanting her eyes towards the young man standing beside her. "Did being my boyfriend wrong you that much?" The man shook his head and smiled, lifting her chin with one hand and initiating a kiss. Ning Zijin’s eyes lit up; she wrapped an arm around his head, and they kissed for over a minute, shocking everyone watching. The school beauty turned white and green with anger, as if she had lost all face. "Ning Zijin is my, Ye Feng’s girlfriend. From now on, anyone who messes with her is messing with me, Ye Feng," the man declared as he wrapped his arms around her shoulders authoritatively. Master Ning, usually brazen and roguish, now clung to him like a little woman. Rumors circulated from the outside that Ning Zijin had many boyfriends and led a chaotic private life, completely unworthy of Ye Feng. As the rumors spread, Ning Zijin asked him, "Do you believe them?" Ye Feng picked all the green onions and ginger out of his bowl and handed it to her. "I didn’t get involved in your past, but your future must belong entirely to me." The once innocent and shy boy had gradually grown up and learned to declare his dominance. Ning Zijin raised an eyebrow: "I did indeed have quite a few boyfriends." Official source is novel⦿fire.net She noticed his hand shaking as he held his chopsticks, a hint of amusement crossing her eyes. "Let’s see, starting from kindergarten up until now, one, two... thirteen..." Ye Feng’s expression grew darker and darker. "Ah, too many to remember clearly." With a "snap," he slammed down his chopsticks, looking at her sternly, "Ning Zijin, are you doing this on purpose?" He pursed his lips, "I don’t care how many boyfriends you’ve had in the past, as long as you belong completely to me from now on. I won’t take those rumors to heart." Ning Zijin pouted: "If you don’t take them to heart, it means you don’t care about me." Ye Feng got up and walked away. Ning Zijin hurriedly followed: "Are you angry with me now?" Ye Feng suddenly turned around; Ning Zijin had never seen him so angry, "Yes, I’m very angry, so angry I could strangle you. But what can I do? Who asked me to meet you so late, Ning Zijin? Are you sent by heaven to torment me?" Ning Zijin smiled and took the initiative to walk over and hug him: "Fool, you believe whatever others say." She slipped a room card into his hand: "Seaview Hotel, room 3012, I’ll wait for you at eight tonight." It was the first time she wore such a charming smile as she drifted away. Ye Feng stood there, stunned, suddenly feeling the object in his hand burning hot, so hot that his heart clenched. He was absent-minded in class all day, with Ning Zijin’s last smile lingering in his mind. He had always been a well-behaved child, never causing his teachers or parents worry. While other teenagers his age were interested in the female body, he was buried in his studies, preparing for TOEFL and IELTS, well aware of the responsibilities on his shoulders and not daring to take a wrong step. He had never even held a woman’s hand, which in Ning Zijin’s words made him a complete nerd. What did her last words mean? He realized belatedly, struggling all day with whether to go or not to go. He didn’t want to hurt her before he had the capability to make her happy, but he couldn’t control himself... As soon as school was over, he ran home, took a bath, changed his clothes, and even put on perfume. Fleeing under his mother’s suspicious gaze, he left the house. All the way there, he kept psyching himself up. Standing at the door of the room, he took a deep breath, ready to knock, when the door suddenly opened from inside. He had never seen Ning Zijin look so beautiful. She wore a long wavy wig, her face painted with delicate makeup, dressed in a slinky silk nightgown, looking seductive, vivid, and dynamic. She had lost her fierce edge and gained a bit more of a mature woman’s allure.
