Going home for Chinese New Year, I squeezed onto a bus with three energetic young women.

The two people who had just opened the car door stopped and turned around to look.

This is a boy with slightly dark skin and a short stature.

He stood about three meters away from the two of them, clutching the hem of his clothes, sweat beading on his forehead.

"What's wrong, Ailu Guan?" Jiang Ruyue asked.

She then explained to Bai Li:

"This is my classmate from Ping County. He was also assigned to the Wen County examination center."

Bai Li raised an eyebrow.

"Tsk." Bai Li looked at the boy and asked:

"Who are you to Ai Tianbi?"

This question completely baffled Ailu Guan.

Ailu Guan stared at Bai Li.

The man in front of me, standing at 1.87 meters tall, exuded an overwhelming sense of power.

With his naturally bright eyes and white teeth, Bai Li's face was unbelievably handsome.

Add to that the eye-catching brand-new BMW Mini behind them, and just that spectacle made Ai Luguan feel ashamed of himself.

He didn't even know where to put his hands and feet.

"Huh?" Elru stammered in response.

"Who...who is that? I...I don't know them..."

Bai Li couldn't help but laugh at his flustered appearance.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Li's gaze shifted downwards, and he saw that Ai Lu Guan was holding a pink envelope in his hand.

Bai Li took a long stride forward.

With two fingers, he snatched the letter directly from Ailu Guan's hand.

He waved the pink envelope in mid-air.

"I saw you were about to give this to Ruyue," Bai Li said casually. "What is it?"

"love letter?"

Bai Li's calm demeanor showed that he didn't take the matter to heart at all.

He had complete trust in Jiang Ruyue.

Ailu Guan, who felt ashamed of his own inferiority after being impressed by Bai Li's handsomeness, finally realized what was happening.

The goddess's boyfriend doesn't take her seriously at all!

Ailu knew his chances were slim.

After three years of being classmates, we're about to go our separate ways. If I don't confess now, I'll really miss my chance.

"Yes...yes." Elukan mustered his courage.

"Don't hit me yet..." He took a half step back. "I know what I'm doing is poaching someone..."

"But...but this is my sentiment of three years! I want to tell Kisaragi-san!"

Bai Li was surprised by Ai Lu Guan's shamelessness, but also found it amusing and remained completely calm.

Because he knew that even if he didn't take action, Ailu Guan would only be driven to death by Jiang Ruyue.

Seeing that Bai Li hadn't made a move, Ailu Guan grew bolder.

He turned to Jiang Ruyue and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Kisaragi-san, I've had a crush on you for a long time!"

Jiang Ruyue nodded three times, saying "oh, oh, oh".

"I understand." She opened the car door. "I have to go now."

This crisp and decisive answer left Ailu Guan speechless, unable to express the deep emotions he had prepared.

He panicked and took two steps forward to catch up:

"So, goddess... did you say yes or no?"

Jiang Ruyue stopped what she was doing and looked at him as if he were a rare and precious object.

"Huh?" Jiang Ruyue's pure and innocent face was filled with confusion: "Why do you think I would agree to your request?"

"How good I've been to you these past three years!" Ailu Guan began frantically recounting his good intentions:

"Every time we distribute drinks in class, I make sure to tighten the cap on the bottle you're holding! That way you'll come to me for help..."

He hadn't finished speaking.

"Stop." Jiang Ruyue impatiently raised her hand to interrupt.

"You stupid kid, that's targeting me, you understand?"

Ailu Guan stood frozen in place.

Jiang Ruyue rolled her eyes and continued outputting:

"Besides, I've always known it was you who did it, so I always opened it myself. I've never confronted you about it."

Ailu Guan stuttered; his mind couldn't process it.

"Then...why didn't you stop me?"

Jiang Ruyue spoke with righteous indignation:

"I think you're not good-looking and your studies aren't good either. I thought I'd let you practice your strength so you'd have more strength when you go to work on a construction site."

She paused:

"This is just me thinking of my classmate. You're welcome."

Bai Li's shoulders trembled uncontrollably.

This girl is usually cute and innocent in front of me, but she turns into a ruthless killer when it comes to outsiders.

Ailu Guan was stunned.

What does it mean to think about having the strength to do manual labor in the future?

So, in the goddess's eyes, I'm just someone who's good enough to do hard labor on a construction site?

Three years of unrequited love, and all I got in return was a manual for manual labor?

He swallowed hard, trying to save face.

Ailu reached into his pocket and rummaged around for a while.

He took something out, held it in his palm, and handed it forward:

"Kisaragi-san, this is a hair clip I bought for you. Please accept it!"

As he spoke, he opened his palm.

A weasel hair clip lay there.

Ailu Guan's voice trembled slightly, earnestly trying to evoke emotion:

"I saved up for a week to buy this! It cost a whole twenty-five yuan!"

Upon seeing the weasel, Jiang Ruyue's face fell.

"What garbage!" She backed away with a look of disgust. "I don't want it."

Bai Li was rubbing her temples beside her.

See you soon.

Where do you get weasel hair clips as gifts for girls?

Jiang Ruyue loves ducks the most, and her car is painted with little yellow ducks.

The fact that Jiang Ruyue didn't take off her shoe and beat him on the spot for sending that kid a weasel that eats chickens and ducks is already an act of leniency.

Ailu Guan's eyes widened in disbelief.

He hadn't expected the goddess to reject him so decisively.

"But... this is what I saved up for a week..." He kept emphasizing his efforts, trying to morally blackmail others.

"Alright, alright! I know this is the money you saved up for a week, twenty-five yuan!" Jiang Ruyue's patience had reached its limit.

She stretched out her fair, delicate finger and pointed at Elru's head:

"Do you have two testicles that form a cerebrum and a cerebellum, covered in wrinkles but unable to think?"

"How did you manage to move yourself like that?"

Ailu Guan looked at Jiang Ruyue in disbelief.

A pure and innocent school beauty, a cold and aloof ideal woman.

How could such vulgar and hurtful words come from her mouth?

Jiang Ruyue didn't care how many pieces he had broken into.

She didn't even want to waste time looking at Boiling Sheep, who was indulging in self-pity.

She turned around, opened the door of the Mini Yellow Duck, and sat in the passenger seat.

"This car was a gift from my boyfriend."

Jiang Ruyue leaned out of the car window and issued an ultimatum to Ai Luguan:

"I'm going back to the hotel with him now. Don't bother me anymore."

Ah? ? ?

Will you give me a car as a gift?

Ailu Crown suffered a severe blow.

He looked at the brand-new BMW Mini, which cost at least 300,000 yuan.

More than three hundred thousand...

I could buy over ten thousand of these hair clips I have!

Before he could even process his feelings of inferiority, he suddenly caught another key point in Jiang Ruyue's words.

Back to...

Back to the hotel...?

Why would the goddess she idolize follow this rich, handsome guy in a BMW back to his hotel?

In broad daylight, a lone man and a lone woman!

He imagined the scene: his eyes turning red, his breathing becoming heavy, and his fingernails digging into his palms.

Just then.

Bai Li slowly walked up to him.

He extended his large, well-defined hand and patted Ailu Guan's shoulder solemnly.

Then, in retaliation, he used two extra units of strength.

"Ouch!" Elru's shoulder slumped, and he grimaced in pain, feeling like his bones were about to fall apart.

Bai Li looked down at him, her thin lips slightly parted:

"Young man, I must excuse myself."

He leaned forward, lowered his voice, and spoke in a volume only the two of them could hear, aiming to kill with his words and wound their spirit.

"Because... your goddess wants to take me to a hotel."

That's all.

Bai Li opened the car door and got into the driver's seat.

The little yellow duck BMW Mini sped away, leaving Ailu Guan in a daze.

Only Ailu Guan was left standing on the curb.

He clutched the twenty-five-yuan weasel hair clip in his hand, which was disheveled in the wind.
