The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1176: Chapter 444: Stand Up and Kick_2

The other boy who just handed the flower to Liang Yanlin, presumably his dorm mate, immediately looked at those around with disdain.

No one could refute him, and Liang Yanlin, upon hearing Li Nuoyi’s words, was also extremely excited. He hurriedly held the flowers and walked over, but just when he was about to kneel on one knee to offer the roses and then naturally take Li Nuoyi’s hand, Li Nuoyi stepped back in panic.

”Um, Senior Brother Liang, wait a moment, I haven’t finished speaking yet...”

”Okay, Nuoyi, take your time, it’s okay.”

Liang Yanlin stopped his actions and quickly spoke.

”Well, it’s just... but I’m not ready to be in a relationship right now, so I’m afraid I can’t promise you...”

Li Nuoyi hesitated as she spoke.

These words brought the boys on site back to life while the girls were secretly delighted.

Only Liang Yanlin was utterly shocked, confusedly asking, ”But, but why... junior Nuoyi, you clearly said you had feelings for me too...”

”Senior Brother Liang, how should I tell you?”

Li Nuoyi pursed her lips, speaking a bit sadly, ”I do have feelings for you, but after all, we haven’t known each other for long. In fact, I can’t quite determine if this is more like the fondness for an older brother; it feels more like a brotherly affection...”

”Can’t determine?”

”I, I’m a bit embarrassed to say, because I’ve never been in a relationship and don’t have much experience...”

Li Nuoyi’s expression showed a subtle hint of grievance at just the right moment.

”Then we can take it slow, junior Nuoyi, I’m sorry, maybe I was too hasty today, I should give you more time.”

Liang Yanlin began reflecting on whether he was too hasty and quickly apologized sincerely.

And the boys nearby, stirred by Li Nuoyi’s small expressions and feeling the urge to protect her, couldn’t help but stir up a commotion.

”Senior Brother Liang, not to point fingers, but you indeed were a bit hasty. You’re putting her in a tough spot.”

”Exactly, Nuoyi seems like an innocent girl with no experience. How could you pressure her like that in public?”

”Junior Nuoyi, don’t mind him, we are here for you!”

Amidst the boys’ clamorous voices of condemnation, feeling that it was more his fault, Liang Yanlin quickly self-accused:

”I’m sorry, I’m sorry, junior Nuoyi, rest assured, I won’t act like that again...”

”Actually, it’s not entirely your fault.”

At this moment, Li Nuoyi smiled brightly. Holding her book, she looked up slightly and said:

”I once told myself that I only want to fall in love once in this lifetime... Today’s world is too restless, and I really dislike those fast-food relationships, so I hope everything can go slower. If I hold someone’s hand, then we absolutely absolutely have to grow old together.”

Under the streetlight, Li Nuoyi’s smooth neck and side profile formed a perfect 45-degree angle with the light and shadow. The evening breeze brushed through her hair, giving her a pristine aura.

Especially those words full of some kind of longing, making everyone present unconsciously immerse themselves into it.

What a wonderful girl...

The boys in the crowd uttered this sentiment for the umpteenth time, and even the girls, who usually were somewhat averse to her, began to reconsider, thinking, had they misunderstood her?

”Pfft...”

Just then, a sudden burst of laughter echoed from a corner of the crowd.

This laughter was extraordinarily abrupt and seemed quite disrespectful, instantly drawing the angry gazes of the surrounding boys and girls.

The boy being stared at by the crowd quickly raised his hand and said, ”I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to laugh, but I really couldn’t hold it in... uh, excuse me, please let me pass.”

The crowd stirred a bit. The boys in the front didn’t initially want to make way, but somehow, they inexplicably stepped aside, allowing the laughing boy to pass through.

What made many frown was the strong smell of alcohol coming from this boy.

”Damn, if you’re going to confess, couldn’t you choose a more spacious place? This is stifling...”

Finally, the boy walked out of the crowd, stretched, and muttered under his breath.

The boys exchanged puzzled glances, wondering who this person was, but the girls’ eyes lit up.

Wow, I thought Senior Brother Liang Yanlin was already handsome, but compared to this guy, he seems a tad inferior.

With sharply defined features, a tall stature, and a slightly nonchalant gaze, the boy standing there exuded a blend of handsomeness with a hint of roguishness. Besides, there was a certain air about him that the university students present couldn’t quite grasp but could vaguely sense...

All these combined made him instantaneously the center of attention.

Even many boys present, including Liang Yanlin, couldn’t help their pupils constricting because those from fairly well-off families immediately recognized that Zhou Wang’s clothing, picking any piece, would easily start from six figures.

Who is this dude... oops, where did this super rich second-generation come from? Does our school have someone like this?

But the most shocked was clearly the heroine of this confession ceremony, Li Nuoyi, who had just been formally elevated to ’goddess’ in many people’s hearts.

She wondered if she was hallucinating, how did Zhou Wang suddenly appear here?

Since Zhou Wang didn’t allow them to actively contact him, neither Bai Feifei nor Li Nuoyi dared to break this rule set by Zhou Wang, so Li Nuoyi truly wasn’t mentally prepared at all.
