Chapter 390: 390 (first watch of the night)

I like you.

Wang Kai had said these four words countless times.

But never had he felt as nervous as he did now.

As he spoke, his heartbeat suddenly quickened, as if it might leap out of his throat at any moment.

Because no girl had ever rejected him before, Chu Jin was a challenge and a conquest to him.

His own circumstances weren’t bad either, whether in terms of looks or family background, he was among the best in Capital City.

She wouldn’t reject him, would she?

Wang Kai looked expectantly at Chu Jin.

Chu Jin gently withdrew her hand, "Thank you for your feelings, but I already have someone I like, and we’re together now, so, goodbye." With those words, she turned and walked away without hesitation, leaving Wang Kai with a serene view of her back.

Was he...rejected?

Although he had mentally prepared himself, Wang Kai couldn’t help feeling disappointed.

She already has someone she likes? Even if she didn’t like him, there was no need for such a lame excuse to brush him off, right?

Was it because she thought his confession was too hasty? Not romantic enough?

After all, every girl has a bit of vanity, and even a cold beauty like her couldn’t escape that, could she?

Wang Kai clenched his fist, a glint of determination in his eyes, and set off towards the school gate.

There were still 15 minutes left until the end of the exam, and many parents were gathered outside the school gate. In the sweltering heat, some held umbrellas, some stood in the shade of trees, and others stood directly under the blazing sun, their foreheads glistening with fine sweat. Despite the crowd, nobody was speaking loudly; everyone was having quiet conversations with implicit understanding.

Chu Jin almost instantly spotted Mr. Mo leaning against the car door. Different from his usual stern and aloof demeanor, his posture was relaxed, with a cigarette dangling from his lips. Even so, his distinguished aura and sharply defined features still attracted many sideways glances.

The cigarette at Mo Zhixuan’s lips had only burned halfway when he saw her slender figure reflected in his eyes. He immediately stubbed out the cigarette and greeted her, "Are you done with the exam?"

"Yeah, I turned in my paper early," Chu Jin replied as she followed him in the direction of the parked car.

When Wang Kai came out, he saw Mo Zhixuan opening the car door with one hand, while his other hand gently supported Chu Jin’s shoulder to guide her into the passenger seat, with graceful movements.

After that parents’ meeting, almost everyone in the school knew that Chu Jin had an extremely handsome uncle. This must be that uncle, Wang Kai thought, squinting his eyes and stroking his chin, considering that he should make a good impression in front of a parent rather than impulsively chasing after her. Thus, with a smile on his lips, he shouted, "Chu Jin, see you in the exam room this afternoon!"

Wang Kai, under the sunlight, looked exceedingly handsome and full of youthful vigor, radiating an aura of adolescence. Standing at six feet tall, he already stood out from the crowd.

So young...

Mo Zhixuan’s mind suddenly recalled the crisp ’Mo Daddy’ from before.

His expression turned icy in an instant, his fingers gripping the steering wheel tightened unconsciously, his lips nearly a straight line, and his whole body exuded a chilling aura, creating a sense of oppression in the car, "Someone is calling you, do you want to go see?"

"No need, let’s go," Chu Jin said indifferently, looking ahead at the traffic, completely unaware of his change in demeanor.

What a carefree girl!

Mo Zhixuan started the car engine, "Is he your classmate?"

"Not a classmate, just a schoolmate, we happened to be in the same examination room," Chu Jin answered casually while she picked up her phone from the storage compartment and began rapidly tapping on the screen, her eyes sparkling, seemingly engaged in conversation with someone.

Is she chatting with that young guy from before?

Mo Zhixuan suddenly felt the car was a bit stuffy and asked, "Did he just confess to you?"

"Yeah, but..." Chu Jin hadn’t finished her sentence.

’Screech—’ a piercing sound of emergency braking filled the air, and the car stopped just 0.01 meters away from the roadside green belt.

"Are you okay?" Chu Jin quickly put down her phone and looked up at Mo Zhixuan, visibly shaken.

Mo Zhixuan’s gaze was serious as he looked at her, the pristine white shirt unable to hide the chill emanating from his body. He didn’t reply but countered, "Did you agree?" His low and cold voice was almost suffocating.

Only then did Chu Jin realize, and a bright smile suddenly appeared on her calm face, as she reached out to smooth his furrowed brow, "No, I rejected him. Don’t worry, I’m not the kind of person who starts things I can’t finish."

Chu Jin’s eyes curved charmingly, dimples lightly gracing her cheeks. She seldom smiled so unguardedly and only showed such heartfelt joy in front of those closest to her.

Mo Zhixuan’s frown smoothed instantly, but the thought of someone coveting his girl still unsettled him.

Mr. Mo started the car again and commanded coldly, "From now on, you’re not allowed to meet him."

"Okay," Chu Jin nodded.

"And you’re not allowed to talk to him either."

"Okay."

"You need to keep your distance from those male classmates as well."

"Okay."

"..."

Seeing the young girl’s compliance, Mo Zhixuan’s tone softened a bit, "Who were you chatting with just now?"
