So, unlike in her previous life, she hadn't casually accepted Duan Xiaoyi out of curiosity about dating or the thought that just anyone would do.
Her actual reason for coming downstairs today was to make things clear with him.
Unexpectedly, she found herself cornered like this.
She looked at the smiling Han Lie. She wanted to ask for his help but was intimidated by his powerful presence. Suddenly, she didn't dare to bother him with this matter. She was incredibly conflicted.
As for Han Lie... he noticed Fang Feifei's pleading gaze.
For , resolving this is easy, he thought. The only question is how far I should take it. So, should I help her or not? Since Fang Feifei has already diverged from her choices in the other tiline, lending a small hand is certainly doable. Completely changing a classmate's entire life... not only is it interesting, but it also brings a great sense of accomplishnt.
However, just as Han Lie decided to lend a hand, he saw Xi Luting.
The Queen had been standing behind the crowd for who knows how long, but she had seen Duan Xiaoyi's persistence and Fang Feifei's rejection and dilemma.
She also noticed Han Lie.
During their brief eye contact, she smiled at Han Lie and gestured with her right hand, pressing down in the air.
Her aning was clear: Don't move. I'll handle this, he thought.
Then, she strode with her long legs over to Duan Xiaoyi and Fang Feifei.
The onlookers were sowhat stunned.
A girl? Stepping up to cause trouble?
At this ti, Xi Luting, having refused to host the New Year's Eve party, wasn't as famous as she had been in her previous life.
But her height of 1.8 ters, combined with an aura that magnified her presence imnsely, still made her the center of attention in any setting.
Amidst the shocked gazes of the onlookers, Xi Luting snatched Duan Xiaoyi's flowers and spoke with an icy tone.
"Explain jackshit to you?!"
HOLY HELL!
Many were stunned by her audacity, completely flabbergasted.
Raw, wild, and domineering!
And it didn't end there.
Xi Luting casually picked up the jewelry box from the bouquet, glanced at it dismissively, and tossed it back to the dumbfounded Duan Xiaoyi.
Her phoenix eyes narrowed, her gaze as sharp as a blade.
"Hitting on first, then chasing after her? And using a mass-produced Tiffany necklace to try and force her hand? You've really got so nerve!
We find you annoying, and it has nothing to do with money. It's simply because you're too low-class. Understand?
If you do, then get lost, and stop freaking bothering my girlfriend!"
Duan Xiaoyi was completely numb.
Girlfriend?! he thought, stunned. Are they... actually together?!
The surroundings quieted down, a chill hanging in the air.
Xi Luting pulled car keys from her pocket, pressed them into Fang Feifei's hand, and instructed, "Wait for in the car."
Then, with a casual shove, she pushed aside the stupefied Duan Xiaoyi. Holding the roses upside down, she marched straight through the heart-shaped arrangent of candles and walked up to Han Lie.
People in her path instinctively moved aside, clearing a way for her.
Only then did everyone realize that hidden among the crowd watching the commotion, a true big brother had been quietly lurking.
Brother Lie struggled to suppress his laughter, watching Xi Luting with curiosity.
Queen Luting wore a long down jacket, open to reveal adorable pink pajamas underneath. Despite this, her expression was utterly badass.
Reaching Han Lie, she held up the inverted roses and stuffed them into his arms.
"A borrowed offering for the Buddha. Saves the trouble of preparing my own."
"Why?" Han Lie asked, amused.
Xi Luting fell silent for a mont, then suddenly sighed.
"I reckon you won't be spending much more ti at school. Seeing soone else confess just now stirred up a lot of regrets in . So things can no longer be nded, but others still can... Stand still!"
Han Lie instinctively straightened up. Imdiately, Xi Luting leaped and lunged at him.
Han Lie quickly opened his arms. He had just caught her when the frenzied Queen threw her arms around his neck, locked her legs around his waist, lowered her head, and kissed him forcefully.
WHOA!
Every single onlooker was struck dumb.
What the hell kind of plot twist is this?!
But despite their shock, the two kissing under the streetlight stirred endless envy among the boys and girls.
It was the kind of romantic fantasy they often imagined but dared not hope to achieve. This was the quintessence of youth—beautiful, unrestrained, yet a version of youth not everyone experienced.
So, they could only exclaim, only scream, only envy, but never possess.
Thus, the more profound their shock, the deeper the mory beca.
In the midst of the uproar, an unknown number of people raised their phones to capture this beautiful scene.
On the last day before leaving school after the final exams, Queen Luting had still managed to create major news.
But Han Lie wasn't bothered by it. Instead, he felt a trendous satisfaction.
My little queen, finally showing the first hints of her true royal deanor.
Can you understand that feeling?
Hah, this feeling of not having to lift a finger... it's truly delightful...
