  Chapter 62: I ’t Take It Anymore!

  TL: Etude

  “Feng Nanshu is really beautiful, Jiang Qin, you’re really lucky,” someone said.

  Jiang Qin snapped out of his daze, looking away from the beautiful face before him. “Gao Wenhui, you’re not bad yourself.”

  “Oh, e on, I know my pce. I’m not even in the same league as Feng Nanshu!” Gao Wenhui pouted.

  Jiang Qin’s eyebrows shot up, his expression turning serious. “Nonsense! As a proud female uy student, you should never belittle yourself. I think you and Feng Nanshu together would be a picture of beauty and grace.”

  “Really?” Gao Wenhui felt fttered and thought to herself that Jiang Qin should speak his mind more often.

  Jiang Qin nodded firmly. “Look at our little rich dy. Even after military training, she’s still as radiant and fair as jade, isn’t she?”

  “Well, that’s true. But if that’s the case, does that mean I’m the beautiful flower here?”

  Gao Wenhui realized something was ht after she spoke. ‘Ruhua’ was the name of an ugly character from the movie “Hail the Judge,” popur among college students sis 1994 release. The name ‘Ruhua’ had since bee synonymous with ugliness, and everyone k. Was Jiang Qin implying she was ‘Ruhua’?

  “Jiang Qin, are you insinuating that I’m ugly? I’m never going to help Feng Nanshu with her love life again!”

  “That’s exactly what I’ve been waiting for you to say! Let’s make it a promise!”

  Befao Wenhui could react, Jiang Qin raised his hands and hooked his little finger with hers. “I swear, if aeaches her about love again, they’ll stay single for life!”

  “That’s just cruel!”

  Gao Wenhui was stunned. retionship advice was her passion, and the thought of not guiding the pure Feng Nanshu was unbearable.

  But Jiang Qin ignored her protests, tent with the thought that as long as no oaught Feng Nanshu about love, all would be well.

  Why should they focus on love? Friendship was just as precious.

  He feared that if Feng Nanshu learned about love and one day fessed to him with i and clear eyes, he wouldn’t be able to resist. Jiang Qin was fident in his career aspirations, fog on earning money since his rebirth, but he had his weaknesses.

  If Feng Nanshu ever fessed to him, he doubted he could resist. She was incredibly beautiful and also a kied rich girl, which was his Achilles’ heel.

  However, Jiang Qin harbored an unexpinable fear of love. He didn’t believe he was mentally prepared to love someone.

  So, the best course of a was to keep the little rich dy from being too curious about love.

  What was this strategy? It was the wisdom of not falling into the trap of love.

  Love was too taxing on the body, only a fool would repeat the same mistakes.

  “Little rich girl, hurry up. After we finish shopping, I o go to sleep.”

  “I’m ing, I’m ing.”

  Feng Nanshu hurriedly responded, running from uhe streetlights. Her skirt fluttered, revealing her fair and slender legs, a breathtaking sight uhe dim night sky.

  …

  The uy’s supermarket was always bustling in the evenings, especially betwee a night. The area was crowded, as the supermarket’s back door led to Front Square of the campus. With an outdoor seating area and a milk tea bar nearby, it ur social spot.

  At Lin Uy, students maintained an unspoken uanding regardiionships. Those looking for love would socialize in Front Square, new couples would talk about their life dreams on the sports field, and those deeply in love would sneak into the small woods behind the prehensive building. Everyone had their space.

  The little rich dy, despite her mild social ay, became visibly nervous in crowded pces. Siering the supermarket, she had been following closely behind Jiang Qin, not straying an inch.

  Her delicate features attracted the attention of many uy students, leading to whispers all around.

  “Jiang Qin, I want that,” she pointed out.

  “Alright, let your lifelong good friend buy you a colorful cotton dy,” Jiang Qin said generously as he hawo yuan to the part-time female college student behind the ter. The student looked puzzled, w why he emphasized the ‘friend’ status despite being with such a beautiful girl.

  But Feng Nanshu seemed delighted upon hearing this, her pretty eyes lighting up instantly.

  After buying the cotton dy, Jiang Qin led Feng Nanshu out the back door and found a retively quiet er in the pza to sit down.

  Holding the cotton dy, Feng Nanshu licked it gently, her pink tongue flickering in and out of her cherry-red lips.

  “Jiang Qin, good friends really stay together for a lifetime?” Feng Nanshu asked, tilting her head and peering at him with her clear eyes from behind the cotton dy.

  Jiang Qin touched his nose, uain. “I guess they .”

  “Then, when I get old, I’ll still be eating cotton dy you buy for me,” Feng Nanshu half-promised.

  “When you’re old, you might not like cotton dy anymore.”

  Under her pintive gaze, Jiang Qin tore a piece of the dy and ate it. “But if you still want it when you’re old, just call me. I’ll e get it for you, even if I have to wheel myself there in a wheelchair!”

  Feng Nanshu responded with an “Oh,” but she didn’t seem as happy as expected. “Will we still not be living together when we’re old?”

  “Why aren’t you ed about why I’ll be in a wheelchair when I’m old?”

  “Eh??”

  Jiang Qin frowned. “I’m talking about being in a wheelchair, and you’re still thinking about your cotton dy? Feng Nanshu, do you even have a sce?”

  Feng Nanshu was dumbfounded. “I do have a sce…”

  “Then why don’t you ask why I’ll be in a wheelchair?”

  “I… I didn’t think of that.”

  “See? Love is a scary thing. Never fall in love. If you do, life will be full of such fusing twists and turns, impossible to guard against.”

  A hint of fear flickered in Feng Nanshu’s eyes. “I uand.”

  “Good girl.”

  Jiang Qin couldn’t help but smile, thinking to himself that Gao Wenhui should e and see whether she could teach faster than he could dismantle.

  “But Wenhui said friends ’t stay good forever, only lovers have a ce,” Feng Nanshu couldn’t help but add.

  Jiang Qin scoffed at this. “Nonsehe e for most lovers is either not seeing each ain or even being enemies. A lifetime? That’s too sci-fi.”

  “Oh.”
