The confessions of these male classmates caught the attention of the female classmates. If this had been during their university days, it would surely have drawn jealous stares! But now, eight years after graduation, many had their own families and loved ones, and they viewed such matters more lightly.

Apart from a few who were particularly jealous, the eyes of the other female classmates revealed a hint of melancholy and reminiscence. While the male classmates used their confessions to put an end to their past emotions, didn't the female classmates also harbor memories of their university days?

After each male classmate finished his confession, he silently returned to his seat. There were no expressions of regret on their faces; rather, each one appeared relieved, as if they had lifted a burden off their shoulders!

Drinking, playing drinking games, and chatting, it was as if they hadn't just made heartfelt confessions!

"Your classmates sure know how to let things go!" Ling Feng said with a smile, "Looks like I'm no longer needed as a shield."

Seeing Chu Ziling's eyes slightly reddened, Ling Feng asked, "Should we go now?"

Chu Ziling hesitated for a moment and then said, "Let's wait a bit longer. This might be my last time meeting with these classmates, so let's wait until the reunion ends!"

Ling Feng shrugged indifferently.

A few minutes later, a male classmate stumbled in frantically and exclaimed, "It's bad, Zhang Zheng has been beaten up!"

Zhang Zheng has been beaten up! The initially lively scene instantly froze.

"Let's go! Let's see what happened!" Chen Fu, as the class leader and organizer, was the first to stand up and said, "Let's all go and see what exactly is going on."

The male classmate explained, "We were just going to the restroom when we bumped into a drunkard. He bumped into Zhang Zheng, who then scolded him, and then the drunkard and his buddies beat up Zhang Zheng…"

"What about you?"

"There were too many of them, and I…" the man's face turned bright red.

Chen Fu didn't bother to scold him, but asked, "Are they still in the restroom?"

"They are!"

Chen Fu led a group of male classmates as they rushed toward the restroom.

"Little brother, let's join them!" At that moment, Zhao Jin stood beside Ling Feng, smiling and said, "After all, we are men, how can we shy away from such a situation?"

While speaking, Zhao Jin's gaze discreetly swept over Chu Ziling.

Ling Feng smiled nonchalantly, "What's so interesting about a fight? With so many people here, could we possibly suffer a loss?"

A hint of disdain flashed in Zhao Jin's eyes, and he said earnestly, "As men, we must have passion and courage in our hearts. I think Miss Chu wouldn't want her classmates to get hurt either, right?"

Chu Ziling frowned slightly, then said softly, "Ling Feng, you should go and have a look. I'm a bit worried!"

Chu Ziling was well aware of Ling Feng's capabilities. If Ling Feng were there, her classmates would surely be safe!

Ling Feng nodded, "Alright, since you've said so, I'll go and check it out!"

As Ling Feng walked toward the direction of the restroom, Zhao Jin smiled and said, "Miss Chu, let's go check it out together!"

By the time Ling Feng arrived at the restroom, Chu Ziling's classmates and a few drunkards had already started a conflict!

Although the drunkards were tall and burly, they were ultimately at a disadvantage in numbers. Since both sides had been drinking, a fight erupted quickly, and Chu Ziling's male classmates soon knocked the drunkards down.

"You dare to lay hands on us? Just wait, don't run if you have the guts, I'm going to call people!" one of the drunkards said arrogantly, "I think you guys don't want to live..."

"Come on, just call them!" one of the male classmates said disdainfully, "Who can't make threats? Be more careful when you bully people in the future; don't think we're easy to bully!"

After dealing a good beating to those drunkards, Chen Fu helped up the bruised Zhang Zheng, asking worriedly, "Zhang Zheng, do you want to go to the hospital to get checked out?"

Zhang Zheng laughed out loud. "What hospital? They're not even enough to tickle me! Come on, let's go back and continue drinking!"

Soon they returned, and as for those drunkards, they didn't care at all. They even dismissed the drunkards' threats as nothing!

After returning, Zhao Jin turned to Chen Rou and whispered in her ear.

Chen Rou nodded slightly and then walked over to Chu Ziling with a few other girls. Speaking in a loud voice, she said, "Ziling, so many of your male classmates have just confessed to you, don't you feel something for any of them?"

Upon hearing Chen Rou's words, the place quieted down considerably, and many faces showed surprise. Wasn't Chu Ziling here with her boyfriend? What did Chen Rou mean by this?

The confessing male classmates couldn't help but perk up their ears, and even though they knew there was little hope, deep down, they still harbored a sliver of unrealistic expectations.

Chu Ziling frowned, "Chen Rou, what do you mean by this? Didn't you see that I came with my boyfriend?"

Chen Rou laughed lightly, "Ziling, of course I know he's your boyfriend. But, as your roommate for four years, I still have a piece of advice for you. When choosing a man, don't pick a dandy! A nice appearance is good, but without the responsibility of a man, what good is it?"

Chu Ziling's lips curled into a slight smile. "What do you mean, just say it clearly!"

Chen Rou said, "My point is simple, during the conflict just now, your boyfriend never showed up, right? I really don't understand, with that incident happening, he could still sit here comfortably— that doesn't add up. Is it because he is afraid of getting beaten up?"

"Exactly, with so many of us around, he's still so cowardly. What if you run into some trouble in the future, can he really be relied on?" another woman chimed in with a tone of disdain.

"A man who is afraid is hardly a man at all! How spineless!"

…

These women, speaking in groups, made it seem as if Ling Feng had committed some heinous sin!

However, hearing the women talk like this also made the faces of the male classmates present look not so good. Whether or not Ling Feng had taken action, his failure to step out showed his attitude.

Although they had no right to demand Ling Feng stand with them, he did drink on the same table, after all, they expected better from someone who had diminished their chances with their crush. This kind of behavior amounted to being somewhat cowardly!

A puzzled look appeared on Chu Ziling's face: "Hey, Ling Feng, people are talking about you, don't you have anything to explain?"

Ling Feng was speechless, this Zhao Jin really was relentless! Although these tricks were trivial and annoying, they were still disgusting!
