Chapter 95 (1/2)

“State your condition,” Zhao Yuan said in a low voice.

“Be my boyfriend. And I want you to stop all forms of communication with Lin Wenxi!” Chen Wanxin said.

“Impossible!” Zhao Yuan said.

“Then it’s impossible for me as well!” Chen Wanxin replied coolly.

“Wanxin, I have nothing but gratitude for you. I thought of many ways to repay your kindness but it’s not something like being your boyfriend. A relationship that exists only in name has no meaning whatsoever! Why will you slowly reduce the affection between us into dust? We’re at least good friends, aren’t we?” Zhao Yuan said sincerely.

“To me, you being my boyfriend in itself is the meaning of everything!” Chen Wanxi retorted loudly.

“The ‘boyfriend’ title is the most meaningless one in the world,” Zhao Yuan said.

“I’ll make sure that the title will become meaningful.” Chen Wanxin chuckled softly. “So is that a yes or a no?”

“I can be your boyfriend but I want to remain friends with Wenxi. We… have always been innocent,” Zhao Yuan said.

Chen Wanxin tried her best to control her emotions and asked neutrally, “Who’d believe that? Will Zheng Kai? Wang Xiang? How about An’an and Shu Xiaoman? Gu Xi and Nannan even less so! More importantly, will Lin Wenxi?”

“Alright. I promise you. Our agreement will last three years!” Zhao Yuan said.

“I have another condition. After Lin Wenxi comes back to Jifu University, you must move out of the dorm. I’ll rent an apartment outside and you’ll live with me,” Chen Wanxi said.

“Impossible,” Zhao Yuan said forcefully. The reason he wanted Lin Wenxi to stay was so that he could see him and hear his voice every day. If he were to move out, he would rather Lin Wenxi move to another province. If worse comes to worst, he would just meet Lin Wenxi three years later. That was better than moving out of the dormitory and seeing Lin Wenxi only during classes and gatherings that the latter were frequently absent from. How could he endure this?

“You have no right to make conditions,” Chen Wanxin said.

“Forget it then. Thanks,” Zhao Yuan said.

“Are you retreating to make an advance or are you truly refusing?” Chen Wanxin asked.

“I refuse!”

Chen Wanxin chuckled. “You’ll ignore him even though you live with him. Zhao Yuan, he’ll be in a lot of pain, you know? Can you stand it? This is a paradox.”

“Don’t you have confidence in yourself? I’m your boyfriend now but you’re asking that I ignore other boys. Won’t you be degrading yourself to ask that?” Zhao Yuan chuckled.

“Not worried, are you? Fine. You can befriend him but you must move out and live with me!” Chen Wanxin said.

“Deal,” Zhao Yuan said solemnly.

“Tonight. Mo Capital. Let’s discuss the details face-to-face,” Chen Wanxin said.

Chen Wanxin wasn’t the only one waiting for Zhao Yuan. Luo Yang was there as well.

“I believe there’s no need to introduce Instructor Luo,” Chen Wanxin said with a smile. Zhao Yuan nodded. The three of them took their seats.

Even after a round of discussion, they were unable to find a solution.

Chen Wanxin speculated that her father and Mo Qian had a level of influence in Jifu University but in her opinion, Lin Wenxi was very mysterious. She couldn’t understand why Jifu University would send Lin Wenxi away as an exchange student. She thought that his punishment would involve things like putting out an announcement criticizing him or asking him to write a public apology letter. However, the punishment was strange. In making Lin Wenxi an exchange student from Jifu University, the diploma that he would receive after graduation would be lacking prestige. This would effectively mar his future. This matter was certainly not so simple.

Did her father pull some strings?

Chen Wanxin and Mo Qian had questioned the former’s parents separately. Mo Qian inquired all of her friends and relatives about Jifu University. Yet, when they gathered the next day, they still couldn’t find the reason why.
