Chapter 683 (2/2)
After leaving the Tomson Villa Complex, Tang Xiu hurriedly went to Shanghai University. The schooling had already started a few days ago and he had yet to appear on the campus at all. Han Qingwu had called him several times already during this time and was discontented. Today was Thursday, and even though he had no class in the morning, he still had to go there to see Han Qingwu and also gather together with his dorm brothers in passing.
Since he left the luxury sedan for Xue Yu, he took a taxi and came to Shanghai University’s entrance. There, he saw several luxury supercars driving inside, and not only did the guards at the entrance not stop them, they even saluted them with smiles on their faces.
“Some second-generation’s silk pants again?”
Tang Xiu sighed inwardly and walked inside. Along the way, many students greeted him, and Tang Xiu responded to each and every one of them. He was now considered a celebrity in Shanghai University, and nearly all the teachers and students knew him.
“Han Qingwu, I, Song Zicong, love you. Please marry me! I promise to love you with all my heart, loving you from generation to generation and until the Earth and Heavens get old.” The loudspeaker was placed on a yellow supercar with a handsome young man standing next to it holding a bouquet of roses. Next to the three other supercars nearby also stood three young men respectively, each hugging a tender, slim girl, while smilingly watching the play of Romeo courting Juliet.
Tang Xiu’s pace came to a halt as he looked up toward at the classroom building in front of him with a slight smile outlined on the corner of his mouth. He wanted to tell that wooing young man to not to be so foolish to set his eyes on Han Qingwu. But the idea immediately vanished as he recalled that those second-generation’s silk pants were not good creatures.
He was originally in a rush to go to the classroom building’s teacher office to report to Han Qingwu after returning from his leave, but now that he saw such a wonderful courtship in the making, he dismissed immediately and went to the big tree nearby, leaning on it and folding his arms there, while letting out a smile to see Han Qingwu ran out of the building.
At this time, Han Qingwu was donning jeans and a white goose down coat, with a brown scarf coiled around her neck. However, she wore a very annoyed expression and her eyes were as though blazing with fire. She then ran toward the young man holding the big bouquet of roses and scolded him right in the face, “Are you not done with all this farce, Song Zicong? You went to my house to make a ruckus, and now you even came to the campus to do the same thing? Do you not believe that I’m going to report this to the police?”
With a sincere and serious expression, Song Zicong knelt in front of Han Qingwu and pulled out a heart-shaped red box from his pocket and opened it up. A sparkling, at least two-carats diamond ring was then revealed as he spoke, “Qingwu, I really fell in love with you. Ever since you drove out those seven thugs to save me, your graceful and elegant demeanor caught my heart. I swear to God that I’m in love with you with all my heart. Please give me a chance, I’ll definitely make you happy. Marry me!”
With an indifferent expression, Han Qingwu flatly refused, “Sorry, you’re nothing but a pretty boy covered with makeup without a man’s spirit in my eyes. Hence, you can’t give me a sense of security and neither do I have any feelings for you whatsoever. Just quickly scram and get out of Shanghai University. You’ve caused enough of a ruckus here.”
“I’ll never give up!” Song Zicong said seriously. “I will always pursue you even if I have to spend more time, energy, and money, for I firmly believe that feelings need to be cultivated. My efforts will open your heart and you’ll accept me sooner or later one day.”
Flustered and exasperated, Han Qingwu raised her fist towards Song Zicong’s handsome face but did not go further. After pondering for several seconds, she suddenly said, “You may pursue me, but leave this cheap trick of courting me at the campus. Fine, I’ll give you a chance under a few conditions.”
With eyes lit up, Song Zicong hurriedly asked, “What conditions? Let alone a few, I’ll definitely do it even if you give me thousands!”
“Firstly, you are not to bother me later, unless you have trained your own muscles and can defeat several thugs by yourself. I’ll talk to you about the second condition after you’re done with the first,” said Han Qingwu.
Song Zicong was stunned and his complexion turned downcast immediately. He raised his arms, forced a smile and said, “I’m confident I can train my muscles, but beating a group of thugs by myself… isn’t this way too difficult? I never practiced kung fu before, even if I were to practice it now, it won’t bear significant results in a year or so!”
“Take it or leave it, your choice!” Han Qingwu sneered.
Song Zicong’s face turned white and blue and only after a long while did he finally reply, “I promise! But I’ll still come to see you regularly. I love you and I can’t sleep nor eat if I can’t see you. Furthermore, I must make sure that no man sneakily comes to see you, and I’ll also trash Tang Xiu in your class if he ever dares to hit on you!”
“What the hell does this have to do with Tang Xiu?” Han Qingwu shouted angrily. “You… JUST SCRAM!”
Hate and envy flashed in Song Zicong’s eyes as he said, “I know that Tang Xiu fella is very famous and you’re also quite close to him. But you’re the woman I fell in love with, thus I will never let him go if he dares to have some bad ideas toward you.”
“JUST GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!” Han Qingwu yelled.
Not far away from there, Tang Xiu watched Song Zicong with an expression of being at a loss whether he had to cry or laugh. This guy was obviously the Romeo courting Han Qingwu, how the hell did he come up with his name all of a sudden?
Nevertheless, he simply paid no heed towards Song Zicong’s threat. He had decided that he would never have the slightest emotional connection with Han Qingwu at all before the whole story of the reason and cause for Xue Qingcheng’s betrayal were made clear. On the other hand, once bitten and twice shy, he did not feel like entangling with this woman again.
He was also too lazy to respond to this guy, Song Zicong, as long as he did not have some crooked thoughts to look for him for trouble. After all, this fella was weak and had no strength at all, and he couldn’t care less about what he did even if his family was indeed quite rich.
A few minutes later, the four supercars left, and Tang Xiu looked at Han Qingwu who looked rather pale. He put his arms down and walked towards her. After he caught up with Han Qingwu who had just turned around to leave, he teasingly said, “Well, well, your market is truly hot, Teacher Han! Even your pursuers are all coming to campus.”
