Dedicated to studying, yet forced into a chaotic situation.

Chapter 125 Oh no, he's become effeminate.

After repeatedly emphasizing to Song Xinying that they were just best friends and that girls shouldn't date, Shi Sui was finally forced to make a guarantee that girls shouldn't date boys either, and then she ran away.

My heart is so tired.

Shi Sui felt like she hadn't done anything all night, except for getting a table full of desserts at the ball, being invited to step on someone's foot, and kicking four men away... Hmm? Looking back, it felt like quite a lot had happened, no wonder she felt so tired.

Although Song Xinying said she didn't need to pay for the dress, Shi Sui still thought about searching for a similar dress when she got back and buying a gift of similar price to send back.

She was still wearing Chi Yan's coat, so Shi Sui ran to find him.

Yan Ze was chased away. Chi Yan gripped his phone so tightly that his knuckles turned white. The phone displayed a message from Shangguan Ying.

He couldn't figure out which side Shangguan Ying was on.

Although she hasn't married Pei Shuoxun yet, their marriage is basically a done deal, only lacking a ceremony.

So, as Pei Shuoxun's future fiancée, shouldn't she keep a close eye on him?

Instead, he was sent a video of Pei Shuoxun and Shi Sui dancing together. What does that mean?

There must be something wrong with your brain.

Just as Chi Yan was about to call Shangguan Ying to get some answers, he saw Shi Sui running towards him.

The girl wore a halter-neck tulle dress, her slender, fair neck connecting to her straight shoulders and back. The crystal halter straps outlined a beautiful curve, and her skin was dazzlingly white. When she ran, the hem of her dress swayed back and forth.

He unconsciously opened his arms, wanting to see the girl rush into his embrace, and then do this and that.

"What are you trying to do with your arms outstretched?" Shi Sui asked, puzzled.

Chi Yan withdrew his arm, snapping out of his reverie and returning to reality, slightly embarrassed: "It's nothing."

"Oh, right." Shi Sui tilted her head, looked up at him, and said, "Today at the club activity, our department set up a stall to sell milk tea. I specially saved a cup. Do you want to try some?"

Chi Yan was taken aback: "Milk tea?"

“Yes.” Shi Sui nodded slightly. “It’s in the small refrigerator in the dorm. It certainly won’t taste as good as when it’s freshly made, but—I hope the taste won’t be too bad.”

After the milk tea stall closed, each employee used the remaining ingredients to make milk tea.

Shi Sui originally intended to save it for herself to drink that evening.

With its rich tea base, drinking milk tea will keep you awake and give you more energy to study late into the night.

But when I saw Chi Yan, for some reason, I just wanted to give him a drink.

Chi Yan was still in a daze: Milk tea specially saved for him? Isn't this love?

"Want some?" Shi Sui asked again. "The milk tea is in my dorm. I'll go get it for you if you want some."

Chi Yan's Adam's apple bobbed, and he looked down at her, saying, "Yes, I want to drink."

Gu Chenyi lay blankly on the fountain, his eyes wide open in a disheveled state. Water droplets flew into his eyes, and he looked helplessly at the sky.

All that remained in my mind was Shi Sui's words, "Long time no see. Did you have a good time last weekend?"

means something.

He was forced to recall the nightmare of that night, the overlapping figures, the humiliation and pain, which tormented his nerves repeatedly.

The water splashed on his face, like countless slaps, waking him up.

Gu Chenyi wasn't stupid; he quickly figured it out.

The men he sent to deal with Shi Sui were either insane, mentally unstable, in a vegetative state, or had lost their dignity as men. None of them escaped unscathed, and none of them had a good ending.

They disguised it as an accident, so they couldn't find out who did it.

He thought Shi Sui lacked the ability and means, and that he was framed because the Gu family had offended business associates.

It turns out that this wasn't the case at all. What he thought was a flawless plan had long been seen through by Shi Sui, who then took ruthless revenge.

Gu Chenyi lay on the fountain, the cool autumn night water soaking into his body. It took him a while to recover.

He jolted awake from the fountain, his face contorted in a grimace, his features dark and sinister, his eyes brimming with hatred like a tidal wave.

He will repay that humiliation a hundredfold, a thousandfold.

On an autumn night, the bright full moon casts its gentle light.

The dance was still going on, and the boys and girls were still dancing together, so there were only a few people scattered around on the campus roads.

Shi Sui went back to her dorm to get milk tea, thoughtfully inserted a straw, and handed it to Chi Yan.

"Here you go, have a taste."

Chi Yan accepted the milk tea.

The milk tea, fresh from the refrigerator, was ice-cold, with tiny water droplets still clinging to the cup. But more than anything, it held the lingering warmth of the young girl.

Under the starry sky above Shi Sui's eyes, Chi Yan obediently took a sip of milk tea.

"Is it good? Is it good?" she asked him in a light, repeating voice, like a broken record.

"It's delicious, very sweet." Chi Yan stared at her face.

It felt so good to be recognized, Shi Sui was extremely proud: "Of course it tastes good! I think I have a real talent for making milk tea."

Seeing Chi Yan smiling while drinking milk tea, it must be because it tastes so good that she has such a sweet smile.

Shi Sui is bursting with confidence.

According to the original novel's plot, if she hadn't been tricked and imprisoned by Gu Chenyi, she would definitely have become an outstanding employee, promoted to assistant store manager, store manager, and joined headquarters...

I've digressed; we should still focus on our studies.

Shi Sui was in a good mood today and chattered on and on about her day’s events to her older brother.

"This is a plush toy I won in the ring toss game at the amusement park. I'm giving it to you."

Chi Yan then saw her conjure up a doll, only the size of a palm, a pink lop-eared rabbit.

Pink and fluffy.

He no longer finds plush toys tacky; he only finds them cute, then takes them home, puts them on his bed, covers the lop-eared rabbit with a blanket at night, and sleeps with them.

Oh no, he realized he was becoming effeminate.

Chi Yan accepted the pink lop-eared rabbit, his fingertips brushing against her hand, and he couldn't resist hooking her little finger with his.

Shi Sui paused for a moment, then tried to pull her hand back.

But then he said, "I heard you danced with Pei Shuoxun tonight, shouldn't you be with me?"
