"Lu Weiguang, I don't like flowers," Yang Qingyin said, glancing coldly at a somewhat embarrassed Lu Weiguang and spoke in a voice that wasn't very loud, "Stop being silly and go back."

Having said that, she didn't wait for Lu Weiguang to respond and turned around to leave.

As she turned to leave, her eyes swept over where Luo Ziling had been standing.

Luo Ziling, whose eyes had been following her, clearly saw a faint smile on her face as her gaze swept over him.

When Yang Qingyin started to speak, everyone quieted down, and the whole love confession scene fell silent.

Even though Yang Qingyin's voice wasn't loud, everyone present clearly heard what she said.

She had refused—she had turned down the confession from Lu Weiguang, the universally acknowledged number one handsome boy among the girls.

Some people were thrilled, but many more were disappointed.

What had been a romantic and lovely affair had turned into a story that weighed on people's hearts due to Yang Qingyin's polite refusal.

This was a tragedy, at least for Lu Weiguang.

Many looked at Lu Weiguang with sympathy, watching him stand there dazed and at a loss.

His fan club members were also stunned, unsure what to do next—should they continue cheering or just stop altogether.

After a while, Lu Weiguang also came back to his senses and his eyes looked towards where Luo Ziling had just stood.

But where was Luo Ziling's figure?

Luo Ziling had left with Cao Jianhui as soon as Yang Qingyin turned to leave.

"Boss, aren't you going to stay and watch the excitement?" Cao Jianhui asked, still reluctant to leave, "It's really satisfying to see someone else make a fool of themselves, especially someone better than me."

"Now that the matter is settled, what are you waiting for, for her to take her anger out on you?"

Cao Jianhui's curiosity was piqued by Luo Ziling's words, and he asked, "Boss, don't tell me there's something going on between you and Yang Qingyin?"

When Yang Qingyin came down, she smiled in their direction, and he had assumed the goddess was smiling at him. Now it seemed he was totally wrong; Yang Qingyin must have been smiling at Luo Ziling.

Luo Ziling was handsome, and had been the center of attention for countless girls recently. It wouldn't be impossible for Yang Qingyin to take a liking to him.

Thinking this, Cao Jianhui's gossip fire blazed fiercely within him.

"Boss, did I guess right?" Seeing Luo Ziling simply smiling without answering, Cao Jianhui asked again.

"Get lost!" Luo Ziling kicked Cao Jianhui, "Stop talking nonsense and disrespecting her."

Cao Jianhui, touching the spot where Luo Ziling had kicked him, said with a wronged expression, "Boss, wasn't I just trying to help make things happen? If you manage to win Yang Qingyin's favor, you would shock the whole Yan University. You'd become the envy of everyone, and we could bask in your glory too!"

Luo Ziling simply ignored Cao Jianhui's words and headed towards the dormitory.

However, Cao Jianhui didn't care and still came over with a giggle, "Boss, don't tell me you've already got someone you like? Ah, I know it must be Ouyang Huihui. Haha, I said you two definitely have something going on, and you won't even admit it! Ouyang Huihui is really quite something, pretty and with a good figure. Plus her family must be very wealthy, being able to drive a luxury sports car; she might be the only one at Yan University. Right, what exactly did you two do today? Confess, or I won't let you off easily."

"Did you come to university to chase girls or to study?" Luo Ziling lectured Cao Jianhui with a heartbroken expression, "Stop blabbering and go back, rest early. We still have military training tomorrow. Keep yelling, and I'll thrash you."

"Fine, you can tell me when you're ready," Cao Jianhui said, seeing that people were coming and going all around them and not pressing Luo Ziling further.

He suddenly thought of something, smacked his head, and exclaimed, "Ah, I actually forgot to take a photo just now."

He had never managed to get a clear frontal photo of Yang Qingyin and still harbored some regrets about it.

Having met her in person today, he forgot to take a frontal photo, and he was incredibly bummed about it.

Back in the dormitory, Cao Jianhui immediately turned on his laptop and started browsing the campus forum posts, making a fuss over it. Luo Ziling leaned over for a look and, finding nothing novel, quickly lost interest.

Luo Ziling felt a bit excited yet didn't know what to do. He lay on his bed and started playing with his phone.

The notification sound of his phone went off while he was on it, and he found a new person had added him on WeChat. Opening it, he saw the nickname "Shallow Singing," and with some thought, he suddenly got excited and immediately accepted.

After adding the new friend, he quickly checked out her Moments but was disappointed to find no exciting content there. There were a few Moments posts, but none included her own photos.

Just as he was feeling a slight disappointment, the person sent him a message.

"Thank you for the medicine, truly a descendant of the Divine Doctor," followed by a few cute emojis.

Luo Ziling chuckled upon reading it; he wasn't entirely sure this was Yang Qingyin's WeChat before, but now he had no doubts.

"I told you, young master's medical skills are outstanding, how can you not believe it?" Luo Ziling quickly replied with a message, adding two smug emojis at the end.

"Then, this young lady will wait for your next treatment," came the reply promptly, still accompanied by two cute emojis.

"No problem. If there's a chance, I will personally take care of you and make sure you're healthy and well."

"This young lady thanks you in advance."

Luo Ziling suddenly didn't know how to respond and hesitated for a moment.

At that moment, he saw that someone posted a new comment in Moments, so he immediately clicked to check it out and saw it was Yang Qingyin commenting on the photo of him in military attire.

"Indeed quite nice to look at, a bit handsome," with a few giggling emojis following the comment.

Luo Ziling, pleased, quickly sent her a message, "How come I can't see your photo in your Moments?"

"I'm not like some people who like to show off," came Yang Qingyin's message accompanied by several disdainful emojis.

"Then how about you send me a photo of you looking your best, how about that?" Luo Ziling wrote the message and hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to send it.

After sending it, he felt a bit uneasy, afraid she might get angry and ignore him, or be unwilling.

To his surprise, Yang Qingyin didn't refuse but instead sent him a photo of herself in traditional attire after a short while.

Her charming eyes and demure allure were captured in this very clear photo, and Luo Ziling's heart raced with excitement.

"Do not show it to anyone else." Yang Qingyin's follow-up message included two rolling eyes emojis.

"I'll hide it away and admire it in secret."

"Tired, going to sleep," followed by a sleepy yawn emoji.

"Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise. I'm off to sleep too, good night."

The two never mentioned the events of the evening.
