Gradually moving away from the campus, until there were no familiar faces on the road, Xia Nuo finally erupted in anger, "Leng Yan, have you forgotten what you promised me?" "Have you forgotten what you promised me?" Leng Yan suddenly stopped, turned his head, and asked her. Xia Nuo was stunned, "What did I promise you?" "Before you graduate from college, not to date any men." Dıscover more novels at 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⟡𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕥⟡𝕟𝕖𝕥 Xia Nuo was infuriated, did her relationship with Zhang Jian count as dating? She harshly shook off his hand and said angrily, "Stop being unreasonable! Rest assured, I will keep my promise to you. I also hope you will keep your word and stay away from me!" After saying that, she strode forward, leaving Leng Yan standing there looking dejected. Unwilling to let her leave just like that, he caught up to her and blocked her path, his expression serious, "Xia Nuo, I’m only giving you five years. Five years from now, I won’t let you go." His last words sounded like a threat, but also carried an ambiguous implication. Xia Nuo blushed with anger and thought, five years later, if you don’t let me go, I might not care for you anyway. Yet, saying more is pointless since it’s impossible for them now. She pushed his body away and walked off, and he didn’t follow. Zhang Jian recently seemed off as well, blocking her every day saying he had something to discuss. She could avoid him once, twice, but didn’t mean she could dodge him every time. This day, he blocked her again. Losing patience, she refused, but Zhang Jian wasn’t as good-tempered as before and directly pulled her aside, cornering her in front of a big tree. "What on earth do you want!" Xia Nuo asked him angrily. Zhang Jian grinned sheepishly, "Don’t worry, I won’t do anything. I just want to ask you one thing: is there really no chance for us?" "Do you not like me at all?" "Alright then, I won’t pester you anymore. But, could you do me a favor, for the sake of our old friendship?" Xia Nuo wasn’t a fool; she suspiciously evaluated him, thinking that everything he asked earlier was just prelude, and the focus was on the final request. "Go ahead, what is it? As long as I can help, I will certainly not refuse." If it’s just to help an old friend, she’d gladly do it. Hearing her response, Zhang Jian couldn’t hold back his smile. He smiled awkwardly, "Actually, it’s not a big issue. Just, you see, I tried pursuing you and you didn’t agree, so could you help me pursue someone else?" Xia Nuo widened her eyes, feeling like she had seen an alien. Immersed in his own sweet dream, Zhang Jian didn’t notice her discomfort and continued happily, "The new girl in your class named An Ruo, right? I heard she’s quite indifferent and rejects all the boys’ love letters. But since you’re her desk mate, I wanted to ask if you could..." "You want to pursue her?" His mind was seen through, making Zhang Jian nod sheepishly, "...Yeah." Xia Nuo was so angry she sneered coldly, oh you Zhang Jian! Even if I don’t like you, you shouldn’t be so shameless. If you want to pursue An Ruo, go pursue her by yourself, why ask me those questions then have me help you? So because I don’t accept you, I should assist you in pursuing someone else? The moment I turn you down, you immediately choose someone else! If I accept you, would you not choose An Ruo then? What a scumbag, what do you take me, Xia Nuo, for? A backup?! "Xia Nuo, for the sake of our old friendship, could you help me out?"
