Chapter 150: Be My Girlfriend
“Then after school? I’ll pick you up in a bit.”
Cheng Feng smiled warmly and took a step back.
Yin Manni didn’t know what Cheng Feng wanted to do, but since his attitude was good, she couldn’t refuse easily, so she just nodded.
After parting ways, Yin Manni returned to her classroom to attend class.
After school in the afternoon, Cheng Feng was indeed waiting at the doorway of Yin Manni’s classroom as promised.
Yin Manni was the undisputed class beauty, and everyone at Sacred Cherry Academy knew of Cheng Feng. Seeing such a handsome senior appear at their classroom doorway, they couldn’t help but be a little curious: “Huh? Isn’t that Cheng Feng from the school team?”
“He’s really quite handsome, and he performed super well in that match the other day.”
“What’s he doing here? Is he waiting for someone?”
“Could it be his girlfriend?”
Some people chattered and discussed.
After all, Cheng Feng was a year above them, and he wouldn’t normally be here.
When Yin Manni finished packing her things and came out, she ran into Cheng Feng waiting there and smiled, “Senior, you’re really here.”
“You don’t have to come if there’s nothing to do.”
Yin Manni said with a smile.
The coffee was just an excuse, and she didn’t know why Cheng Feng was looking for her.
“I said I’d wait for you, so I had to come. I can’t go back on my word.”
Cheng Feng smiled, then gestured for Yin Manni to follow him.
“Huh, Senior Cheng is looking for Yin Manni? They seem quite familiar.”
“What’s their relationship? I haven’t heard of them being familiar before.”
“They’re talking and laughing together, could they have a special relationship?”
Everyone knew what this “special” implied. Cheng Feng was quite popular among the men at Sacred Cherry Academy, but it was said he had always maintained his purity, and it had been years since his last girlfriend.
Yin Manni completely ignored the discussions of the crowd; after all, it had nothing to do with her.
A Western restaurant opposite Sacred Cherry Academy.
Yin Manni followed Cheng Feng inside.
The waiter handed them the menus, and Cheng Feng gentlemanly let Yin Manni look.
Yin Manni wasn’t actually hungry, and her purpose for coming wasn’t to eat. She casually ordered two dishes and pushed the menu to Cheng Feng.
“No, Senior Cheng, what did you want to see me about?”
“You acting like this makes me feel very awkward.”
Yin Manni said with a playful smile.
“What’s awkward about it? As a senior, can’t I treat a junior to a meal?”
“You don’t think I have ulterior motives, do you?”
Cheng Feng laughed heartily, as if he found the idea incredibly amusing.
“That’s not it, but after this long into the semester, for a senior to suddenly remember to treat me to a meal, it really feels like the intention isn’t just about the meal itself.”
Yin Manni wasn’t lying; she had no prior interactions with Cheng Feng.
For him to suddenly stop her and treat her to a meal, it had to mean something.
“That’s right, treating you to a meal is the pretense…”
Cheng Feng replied.
He then slowly added, “But I genuinely want to deepen our feelings.”
*Cough cough*~
Yin Manni couldn’t help but let out a soft cough; this was a bit awkward.
“Junior, you’re so beautiful~ How about you become my girlfriend!”
*Gasp*~
This confession was truly amazing!
Yin Manni never expected such a sudden turn of events.
“Uh, well, Senior, don’t joke around.”
Yin Manni felt awkward.
She couldn’t admit that she already had someone she liked; all her passion was directed towards Bei Ming Hao Chen. Although this senior was nice, being a girlfriend wasn’t quite suitable.
“I’m not joking at all.”
“It’s okay, junior, you don’t need to be nervous. You can consider it. After all, I’m not in a hurry to get your answer.”
“Or, you can get to know me first, and then make your decision.”
Cheng Feng was like a male god, considering everything for the other person. Even Yin Manni had to admit that she was speechless by his words.
Yin Manni rolled her eyes and replied, “Senior, you’re overthinking it. It’s impossible between us.”
“You know who I am?”
Yin Manni smiled.
Yin Manni, the little princess of the Yin family, a family that commanded respect from national leaders down to commoners.
Several members of the Yin family held important positions in government and key administrative agencies.
With such an identity, how could Cheng Feng possibly aspire to her?
It wasn’t that Yin Manni looked down on Cheng Feng, but some things were just realistic. For example, her family would absolutely never agree to her being with Cheng Feng because… he wasn’t good enough!
“Yin Manni.”
Cheng Feng said indifferently.
Of course, he knew she was Yin Manni, the most beautiful freshman in the first year.
Yin Manni chuckled.
“Do you know about my relationship with Bei Ming Hao Chen?”
Yin Manni continued to press.
“Bei Ming Hao Chen? You like him? It doesn’t matter, I don’t mind.”
Cheng Feng replied.
Yin Manni: …
So, where did you get the nerve and confidence to say you like me?
Liking Bei Ming Hao Chen? Yes, that’s a fact. But didn’t he know that between Yin Manni and Bei Ming Hao Chen, it wasn’t just Yin Manni liking Bei Ming Hao Chen?
Yin Manni was also Bei Ming Hao Chen’s childhood sweetheart. Regardless of their current relationship, her close relationship with Bei Ming Hao Chen and their families being old friends was something that could never change.
Yin Manni was very confident; she simply felt that Cheng Feng was not good enough for her.
She wasn’t very clear about the Cheng family’s background, but Yin Manni was certain that anyone who could be worthy of her would definitely be someone she had heard of and was very familiar with, and among those people, there was absolutely no one named Cheng Feng.
Every word Yin Manni spoke seemed to carry an invisible sarcasm, which Cheng Feng understood but it made him very unhappy.
Was it just the Yin family? Why did she think he wasn’t good enough for her? What was so great about it?
Cheng Feng was truly courting disaster. Instead of backing down, he kept pressing, “You think I’m not good enough for you? No…”
No?
Yin Manni scoffed and casually asked, “How much is your family’s fortune? How many brothers and sisters do you have? How much of the property belongs to you? Where do you plan to study after graduation? What are your future plans? What’s your estimated future salary?”
Yin Manni asked a string of questions proudly.
“Nine million in assets. Besides me, there’s a younger sister. It’s enough to support you, and you can have whatever you want.”
Cheng Feng quickly replied.
Nine million?
That’s hilarious!
Yin Manni pouted. Could she say that her pocket money alone was more than nine million? So why were these two coins being flaunted as if he were a tycoon?
The waiter happened to be serving the dishes, but Yin Manni had completely lost her appetite. Why should she sit with this kind of person?
It was really lowering her standards.
“Excuse me, Senior, my family’s driver is here to pick me up. I have to go back now.”
Yin Manni picked up her bag and got up to leave.
Cheng Feng immediately stood up and grabbed her hand, “Hey, we haven’t eaten yet. I’ll take you back later. You can let the driver go first.”
Yin Manni frowned, showing no interest. “Excuse me, my father doesn’t like me associating with messy people.”
Then, she left without looking back.
Cheng Feng stood there stunned. He was a messy person?
She’s just Yin Manni, she knows Bei Ming Hao Chen, so what?
Cheng Feng spat on the ground, sat down angrily, and ate the entire table of food by himself.
He had gone to great lengths to invite her here to eat in order to pursue Yin Manni, but she only ordered two dishes, which were the most expensive ones.
Cheng Feng frowned, thinking, what a spendthrift girl. This kind of girl shouldn’t be married. Alas, what a pity…
