Chapter 265: Chapter 265: He Teng’s Promotion_1

You have to understand, this is a school, and the school recently issued a strict prohibition of students dating during school. Zhou Hongjin picking this moment to do such a high-profile thing on Phoenix Tree Avenue, isn’t this tantamount to committing a crime in defiance of the law?

Wasn’t he afraid of getting her implicated and reported to the academic affairs office?

But the most important point was, He Zhilan was confused. Didn’t she already tell Zhou Hongjin that she was married?

"Don’t rush to reject me. I’m not forcing you. I just want you to think it over. I said before that I can wait two years for your answer."

Zhou Hongjin daring to confess so boldly was not a solo act; he made all the preparations beforehand. The flowers were bought in advance, people were arranged to keep watch on Phoenix Tree Avenue, diverting teachers immediately if they were seen. Therefore, at this moment, many people were secretly watching. Seeing that He Zhilan didn’t take the flowers for a long time, those hidden in the shadows were even more anxious than Zhou Hongjin.

"Junior! Accept the flowers! Your senior guarantees you, your senior Zhou Hongjin is definitely a good man! You absolutely can’t miss this opportunity!" The first to stir up trouble was Zhou Hongjin’s current roommate, who had met He Zhilan before and was more familiar with her, constantly urging He Zhilan. "Agree without worry! If your senior Zhou dares to treat you wrong in the future, I’ll be the first one to beat him to death for you!"

Once the teasing began, others naturally followed, scaring He Zhilan quite a bit.

"Go away, all of you! Stop pressuring her here!" Knowing that He Zhilan is rather introverted, Zhou Hongjin hurriedly shoos away the teasers.

"Fine, fine! Zhou Hongjin, how ungrateful of you!" With that, the crowd reluctantly leaves the scene, disappointed that the show had ended prematurely.

Despite the complaints of his friends, He Zhilan genuinely appreciated Zhou Hongjin. At least, this meant he wasn’t trying to force her and it would be easier for her to explain things.

It was very awkward for Zhou Hongjin to keep holding the flowers, so He Zhilan took them. "Senior Zhou, as your junior and as your friend, I appreciate you giving me these flowers! However, there’s something I need to make clear to you."

"Okay, go ahead!" Zhou Hongjin was extremely pleased when He Zhilan took the flowers.

He Zhilan pondered for a few seconds, and then, in the calmest tone possible, said, "I told you before that I am married."

Zhou Hongjin was taken aback. "You’re only eighteen." After a pause, noticing the serious expression on He Zhilan’s face, he asked incredulously, "Are you really married? I thought you were just making excuses to reject me!"

"Yes, I am eighteen, but isn’t that old enough to get a marriage license?" He Zhilan gave a slight smile, "I got married over the summer break. Senior Zhou, speaking out of line with my married status, you’re really good and excellent. If I weren’t already married and committed to my marriage, I would definitely be with you!"

"You’re really married?" Zhou Hongjin was stunned, as if struck by lightning, muttering to himself, "I always thought you were lying to me."

"With how great you are, do you still worry about not having a girlfriend?" He Zhilan playfully lifted up the flowers in her hand, "If you don’t take back these flowers, I’ll consider them a gift from you, congratulating me and my husband on our hundred plus days of marriage!"
