Chapter 725: Chapter 722: The Sinister School Doctor
Lin Tian and Qi Jing had different expressions; Qi Jing’s was awkward and gloomy, while Lin Tian’s was faintly cold. He had not expected that brothers in the same dormitory would face the same fate.
Liu Wenxing and Lin Tian’s situations were strikingly similar, both facing a wealthy and handsome rival. The only difference was that Liu Wenxing and Guo Heng were not brothers, whereas Lin Tian and Sun Decai once were.
Lin Tian wanted to see how He Mengxiang would choose. She was a student, perhaps without the pressure of making a living, perhaps without the experience of the hardships of earning money, but she was a high school senior facing the pressure of further education.
If a wealthy and handsome man told you, "Come with me, and I can get you into a prestigious university," doesn’t every girl have a dream of a Prince Charming?
Actually, whether it’s a white horse isn’t important. A black horse works too, even a zebra; what’s important is that a prince is riding it. And what is a prince? A prince is synonymous with being wealthy and handsome.
Lin Tian saw a flash of anger in Liu Wenxing’s eyes, but he had no way to refute Guo Heng’s words; love without material wealth is like building castles in the air, like bubbles that burst at the slightest bit of hardship in life.
Liu Wenxing had to admit that he currently didn’t have the means to acquire sufficient material wealth. He believed he could in the future, but Liu Wenxing didn’t want to make empty promises.
Promise of a future with a house, a car, a happy life, in Liu Wenxing’s view, men who promise these are irresponsible.
Seeing Liu Wenxing silent and not speaking, a more arrogant and smug expression appeared on Guo Heng’s face.
He smirked and said, "Liu Wenxing, step aside. You can’t give Xiao Meng happiness. Let’s just call this a beautiful misunderstanding. Once the misunderstanding is cleared up, this matter ends. The wise adapt."
"Guo Heng, get out of here! Seeing your face makes me lose my appetite for lunch!" He Mengxiang suddenly shouted loudly, surprising everyone.
He Mengxiang appeared to be a delicate and cute girl, but her outburst left all the men present stunned, including Liu Wenxing, who was agape, probably seeing He Mengxiang’s temper flare up for the first time.
"Wenxing, I don’t usually lose my temper. You don’t think I’m a rude girl, do you?" Seeing Liu Wenxing quite shocked, He Mengxiang nervously explained.
Liu Wenxing shook his head, smiling, "Xiao Meng, I think you are very adorable at this moment, really, no matter what you are like, as long as it’s you, I like you."
"Really? Then I’ll take that as your declaration of love toward me, okay?" He Mengxiang winked, playfully saying.
Liu Wenxing said somewhat nervously, "Then do you accept?"
"You blockhead, I’ve been waiting for you to say that for so long. What do you think, do I accept?" He Mengxiang playfully scolded.
Despite the presence of others, He Mengxiang and Liu Wenxing shared confessions of love, affectionately interacting with each other, causing Lin Tian to exclaim in bewilderment; he had not expected the usually honest Liu Wenxing to be so fierce.
Chen Xiaorou and Qi Jing looked at the boldly confessing couple, then stole a glance at Lin Tian, their eyes revealing envy.
The person most unhappy at the scene was Guo Heng, and the most jealous was the male school doctor, Lai Xiucheng. Guo Heng, being wealthy and handsome, lost to an ordinary student while Lai Xiucheng thought such a lovely and sprightly girl had become someone else’s girlfriend.
"Xiao Meng, I..." Guo Heng tried to say something but was interrupted by He Mengxiang.
"Guo Heng, shut up," He Mengxiang said with disdain, glancing at him coldly. "There’s no need for you to speak, I already know that no ivory comes out of a dog’s mouth. Do you only have money on your mind? All you do is threaten people with money every day."
Being scolded by a girl to his face, Guo Heng’s face almost twisted with anger. He took a deep breath and said coldly, "What’s wrong with money? Doesn’t everyone strive in their studies just for the sake of money? When you step into society, you’ll regret choosing Liu Wenxing!"
He Mengxiang smiled faintly and said earnestly, "You’ll never understand, we like and trust each other. I believe in Wenxing’s abilities; he will definitely achieve something in the future. Even if he remains an ordinary man, I will still be his girlfriend."
"If he becomes a CEO, I’ll share his glory with him; if he’s just a common worker, I’ll struggle alongside him; if he doesn’t have enough money to buy a house, I’ll rent one with him. We might fight over trivial matters like groceries, but I feel that love exists in those mundane details. Whether in poverty or wealth, I am willing to be the woman who supports him," He Mengxiang said.
Her voice wasn’t loud, yet it had a profound impact, stirring and moving those who heard it. Qi Jing fixed her gaze forward, unfocused, lost in thought.
Lin Tian looked at He Mengxiang, reminded of the humiliation Sun Decai had caused him in the park, the same experience as Liu Wenxing, yet a different outcome.
If only Qi Jing had spoken similar words back then, what would the scene be like today? But time can never flow backward.
Liu Wenxing was moved by He Mengxiang’s words, overwhelmed with emotion. He stared at her, and she looked up at him. Suddenly, he hugged He Mengxiang and kissed her deeply.
All the words were captured in that kiss; Lin Tian silently cheered for Liu Wenxing, "Brother, well done." Chen Xiaorou’s face turned red, shy to witness such intimacy.
"Liu Wenxing, let go of Xiao Meng!" Guo Heng was about to explode in anger. The woman he had his eye on was being embraced and kissed by another man, igniting a fire in his heart, ready to burst at any moment.
This shout awakened the deeply infatuated couple. He Mengxiang, remembering her dorm mates were around, hastily pushed Liu Wenxing away, her blush spreading to her neck.
"Wenxing, you’re so bad..." He Mengxiang whispered shyly, chiding him sweetly, but in such situations, when a woman calls a man bad, it’s actually a term of endearment.
Liu Wenxing understood this well, and chuckled.
"Liu Wenxing, you dare touch the woman I have my eyes on, you’re asking for death!" Seeing this, Guo Heng could no longer contain his anger and hurled a punch directly at Liu Wenxing’s chest.
As the captain of the basketball team, tall and strong, and striking out in rage, Guo Heng’s punch was not weak.
But Liu Wenxing was not someone easy to provoke either; coming from the countryside, he was slightly shorter than Guo Heng but more robust. Though he couldn’t beat multiple opponents, he wasn’t afraid of Guo Heng at all.
With He Mengxiang by his side and her roommates behind him, Liu Wenxing didn’t dodge but met the challenge head-on, taking Guo Heng’s punch squarely.
However, he also threw a fierce punch, hitting Guo Heng’s chin violently. Guo Heng screamed in pain, tears streaming down his face.
Lai Xiucheng, standing nearby, saw an opportunity and shouted pretentiously, "Fellow students, stop fighting."
He went to break it up, seemingly trying to stop the fight, but he only held back Liu Wenxing.
