Chapter 180: Chapter 180: Dude, Did You Get It Wrong?

Hmm? What’s going on?

Jiang Man lazily lifted her eyes.

Who knew Lu Qingsong was staring at her intently, without blinking an eye.

His eyes sparkled brilliantly, filled with admiration.

"No way... the class leader’s confession, it’s to Sister Man, right?" Zhang Ziqi couldn’t help but exclaim.

Mao Lili was drinking water and almost choked.

Wen Rui hadn’t expected it either, and turned his head to look.

The class leader, standing at six feet tall with a crew cut, looked like the honest type.

Not like an art student, rather more like a straightforward sports student.

Nobody had thought that a guy like the class leader would fall for a cool girl like Sister Man.

Jiang Man herself hadn’t anticipated it; she almost choked on her cookie.

She picked up the mineral water and gulped down a big mouthful vigorously.

After calming her mood, she then looked up, staring at Lu Qingsong with surprise.

Their eyes met, and it seemed like she was saying: Dude, are you mistaken?

However, Lu Qingsong curved his lips into a shy smile.

His cheeks turned bright red instantly.

He stopped playing the violin.

But the music continued, the surrounding chords still served as his background music.

Lu Qingsong looked somewhat uneasy, licking his lips nervously.

"Jiang Man, you are very special, I’ve never met a girl as special as you."

"When you joined the club recruitment and played the guqin, I was so amazed I couldn’t forget you ever since,"

"Later, during military training, wearing the camouflage, you looked cooler than the boys, shooting ’bang bang bang’ and finishing all the bullets, each one hitting right in the center of the target! You have no idea how shocked I was standing in the crowd watching that!"

"Then your identity as Wildrose came out, and at that time, I didn’t even know what words to use to describe my feelings."

"All I know is, I like you, I like you more and more. If possible, would you be willing to be my girlfriend?"

"..." Jiang Man was expressionless throughout.

Was she becoming the subject of gossip herself?

Just now, Mao Lili and the others were guessing that Lu Qingsong liked Wen Rui, and she had thought so too.

But she hadn’t expected...

"Agree to him! Agree to him! Agree to him!"

It wasn’t clear who started it, but the heckling rose again.

Jiang Man felt her ears buzz, the noise annoying her deeply.

"Sorry, I don’t agree."

Before the heckling could escalate, Jiang Man spoke straightforwardly, without hesitation.

She didn’t have a microphone, so only the people close by could hear her reply, including Lu Qingsong himself.

Lu Qingsong had been mentally prepared, but his heart still hadn’t given up.

He forced a smile and asked, "May I know why?"

"I’m already seeing someone," Jiang Man said indifferently, her expression as calm as ever. "I don’t have any feelings for you; we’re not close."

"I see, now I understand," Lu Qingsong said with an awkward smile. "Anyway, I’ve spoken my heart out."

He then placed the violin back on his shoulder and strode toward the stage.

"Confession Night" was replaced by "Bubble."

"Bubble" is a song about a breakup.

So when the students heard this song, they immediately knew that the brave guy’s confession had failed.

The scene was suddenly filled with murmurs of sympathy.

"How did he fail? Thought we’d see a live kiss."

"Failure is quite normal, Jiang Man is after all so outstanding."

"That’s why this guy is so brave, he actually dared to confess to a girl like Jiang Man and made such a scene. If it were me, I would definitely do it quietly, so even if I failed, it could be as if nothing had happened."

"Let’s have a moment of silence for ’Courage Bro’, he’s likely to be mocked for this in the future."

"I envy Jiang Man, that young man is really handsome, if she doesn’t want him, I do!"

Lu Qingsong’s confession failed, but it won him the favor of quite a few girls.

Many girls like boys who dare to love and hate, who boldly proclaim their feelings, upright and guiltless, even if they fail, they won’t regret it afterwards.

Not like some playboys quietly breeding fish, never revealing who they truly like.

After Lu Qingsong’s final bow, the venue erupted into thunderous applause.

Though he failed, he received rave reviews from everyone.

"Brother Song, was Jiang Man too harsh? Rejecting you so mercilessly in front of so many people?"

After leaving the stage, several people went to the restroom.

Friends felt indignant for Lu Qingsong.

Lu Qingsong turned on the faucet and washed his face, finally removing the blush from his cheeks.

To declare his love for his goddess, he had mustered tremendous courage.

"I actually admire her even more now. She was so cool when she rejected me," Lu Qingsong said with a smile.

"What?" His friend wondered if his brother had lost his mind?

"Isn’t it true? By confessing publicly, I actually offended her. She didn’t let the audience’s heckling sway her but followed her heart instead. She remains herself, always so cool and no one could influence her will."

Lu Qingsong bitter-sweetly curled his lips: "I’m not worthy of her, but I have no regrets. Loving her is my own affair, I’ll carefully hide these feelings in the future, so as not to bother her anymore."

"Bro, are you some kind of love saint?" His friend shook his head, truly baffled.

What magic does Jiang Man possess, that even someone rejected by her still speaks so highly of her?

"Achoo~" On the playground, Jiang Man sneezed.

With the incident involving Lu Qingsong, she was even less inclined to stay.

She stood up, dusted herself off, and approached Wen Rui and the others: "I’m leaving first."

"Cousin, you’re leaving? There’s a segment coming up to present garlands to the instructors, and you’re on the list."

"Hmm?" Jiang Man had been infrequently at school lately, so she wasn’t very familiar with the school’s arrangements.

"It’s from the school’s selection of outstanding cadets to give a final send-off to the instructors."

"Alright then." Since it was the school’s decision, she might as well stay a bit longer.

Out of boredom, she pulled out her phone and played a few games.

Seeing that the friend list showed ’Learning is like Rowing Upstream’ as offline, she felt an odd emotion in her heart.

At this time, was Lu Xingzhou working overtime at the company, or had he already gone home?

As her thoughts drifted, Wen Rui tugged at her sleeve: "Cousin, let’s get ready to go to the front."

Jiang Man stood up, following Wen Rui.

Both were on the list of outstanding students.

Apart from them, there were about a dozen other students.

Nearly a hundred instructors had come for this occasion.

Like the outstanding students, sixteen excellent instructors had been selected.

A group of instructors dressed in camouflage were invited to the stage, standing in a line, exuding a powerful demeanor.

Men in military uniforms inherently give off an attractive vibe.

This kind of attractiveness was vibrant, strong, and very masculine.

Following a wave of cheers, Jiang Man and the other outstanding students methodically walked onto the stage.

Under the command of military posture, they stood neatly before the instructors.

Jiang Man position herself, and upon raising her eyes to see the half face beneath the military cap, her eyebrows instantly lifted.

Well, she hadn’t expected that Lu Xingzhou had been selected as an outstanding instructor?

The person she was to present the flowers to was none other than him...
