"Heh, Xu Jing, we have nothing to do with each other anymore. My personality is none of your business," Chen Xuan said, his voice turning cold.
Xu Jing shook her head and said with a resentful tone, "Chen Xuan, if you don't change your personality, even if you find a new girlfriend in the future, you'll end up breaking up with her, too."
Chen Xuan couldn't help but sneer. This shallow woman was the one who was money-grubbing, yet she used his personality as an excuse. Did she really think that made her conscience clear?
"Hahahaha! Jingjing, what are you joking about? Someone like him? Can he even find a girlfriend in the future? Oh, wait—maybe some wealthy, ugly woman would be willing to take in a penniless gigolo like him as a live-in son-in-law. Ha, ha!" Ou Yunfeng laughed at Chen Xuan without restraint.
Ou Yunfeng’s wild laughter drew the attention of many people around them. Among them were quite a few classmates who had witnessed Xu Jing dumping Chen Xuan for Ou Yunfeng just yesterday. Seeing Chen Xuan being humiliated once again, they couldn't help but sigh, "Damn, this guy is so pathetic. Not only was his girlfriend stolen by Ou Yunfeng, but he has to sit there and take all this mockery without saying a word. I guess money really can buy you anything."
"Who said he couldn't find a girlfriend?"
Just then, a clear, melodious voice rang out from behind Chen Xuan.
Everyone turned to look. A woman of stunning beauty was walking toward them slowly. Her long, black, glossy hair flowed down to her waist, and her exquisite, flawless face was framed by beautiful eyes that sparkled with life, captivating all who saw her.
She wore a graceful yet luxurious light blue off-the-shoulder dress, cinched at the waist with a white belt that highlighted her slim, elegant figure. A delicate, exquisite crystal pendant hung from her neck, resting against her full, soft chest, adding a dreamlike quality to her presence.
Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
The entire square was captivated. The male students stared, dumbfounded and silly, while the female students looked on with envy and jealousy. They were all women—why was she so beautiful?
This peerless beauty was none other than Qin Feixue, who had been watching from not far away.
Under everyone’s gaze, Qin Feixue walked up to Chen Xuan as if no one else existed. She took his arm with complete naturalness and leaned her body slightly against his chest, her expression intimate.
"What the hell!"
Qin Feixue’s actions instantly caused everyone’s jaws to drop.
Ou Yunfeng was also left completely stunned. He froze for a moment before asking in disbelief, "Qin Feixue, what is going on here?"
"Didn't you just say Chen Xuan couldn't find a girlfriend? I am his girlfriend," Qin Feixue said, her expression calm and collected.
*Pfft!*
Qin Feixue’s statement caused the onlookers to spit out their drinks. This couldn't be real! The school goddess of Tianhai University was actually with a nobody? Who would believe that?
It was said that ever since Qin Feixue had started at Tianhai University, she had never dated anyone. No matter how tall, handsome, or wealthy the suitors were, she had rejected them all mercilessly, never giving anyone a chance.
Then look at Chen Xuan—wearing cheap street-stall clothes and riding a beat-up electric scooter—somehow winning the favor of the school beauty. It was an eye-opener for everyone present.
"Damn, this Chen Xuan is a legend. How did he land the school beauty? I’m bowing down!"
"I thought Chen Xuan got cheated on by Ou Yunfeng, but it looks like Chen Xuan is the one who bagged the school beauty, and Ou Yunfeng just picked up his leftovers!"
"Haha, never thought the young master Ou would have a day like this, picking up the worn-out shoes that someone else didn't want. Chen Xuan is a beast!"
The onlookers, especially the guys, cast looks of admiration toward Chen Xuan. The man was a boss, a true role model for all the losers; you had to respect it!
Hearing the surrounding sarcasm, Ou Yunfeng wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into. He had just been mocking Chen Xuan for not being able to find a girlfriend, and now that Chen Xuan had bagged the school beauty, it was a slap in the face in the most literal sense.
"Chen Xuan, is this for real?" Xu Jing asked, her expression turning ugly.
Qin Feixue’s faint, pleasant fragrance made Chen Xuan feel a little dizzy. He reached out an arm to wrap around the school beauty’s lithe waist and smiled. "Of course it's real."
Xu Jing was speechless. She could see that every move between Chen Xuan and Qin Feixue was natural; they were clearly a couple in a close relationship, and there was no way it could be a ruse.
"Chen Xuan, let's go. There's nothing left to do here." With a radiant smile, Qin Feixue pulled Chen Xuan toward her red Lamborghini.
Seeing the multi-million-dollar limited-edition supercar, the onlookers admired Chen Xuan even more. The school beauty hitting on him and having a luxury car to drive—this was what a winner in life looked like. In comparison, Ou Yunfeng’s BMW, worth only a few hundred thousand, looked incredibly shabby, lagging behind by several tiers.
Inside the car, Chen Xuan said with a grin, "Thank you, Qin Feixue."
He really hadn't expected a beauty of her status to be willing to pretend to be his girlfriend, especially in public. It was a massive favor to him. Thinking of how Ou Yunfeng and Xu Jing’s faces were effectively swollen from the slap, Chen Xuan felt fantastic. The bitter frustration from being dumped the night before had finally been washed away.
"It’s nothing. You helped me out this morning, so it’s just a return of the favor," Qin Feixue said with a sly smile.
The idea of acting like a couple had actually been learned from Chen Xuan, but thinking about it now, she felt like she had been the one taken advantage of in every way, and a light blush appeared on her face.
"This kind of 'returning the favor' doesn't feel half bad. But since so many people saw us, does this mean we have to play the part all the way?" Chen Xuan teased.
Campus gossip traveled incredibly fast. The news that the school beauty of Tianhai University had been snagged by Chen Xuan would likely spread like wildfire very soon.
Qin Feixue rolled her eyes at Chen Xuan and pouted, "In your dreams!"
Since starting at Tianhai University, let alone dating anyone, she hadn't even had a single rumor attached to her. Pretending to be Chen Xuan’s girlfriend today was a huge step for her. At the time, she hadn't even thought about the consequences.
"Even if I dream, it won't help. I hear your line of suitors can stretch from the classroom building to the school gate," Chen Xuan continued to joke.
Qin Feixue said helplessly, "It’s not as many as you say. Besides, being pursued by people is actually quite annoying." Thinking of the persistent suitors who wouldn't leave her alone, she felt a headache coming on.
"Heh, well, that's better than getting dumped, right?" Chen Xuan replied with self-deprecation. Of course, inside, he had completely let go of the pain of being dumped by Xu Jing, and Qin Feixue had helped him regain his dignity.
"Don't be too sad. With your qualities, you shouldn't worry about finding a girlfriend," Qin Feixue said, her voice softening.
In truth, she was a blank slate when it came to romance and couldn't understand why Xu Jing would dump Chen Xuan for a spoiled brat like Ou Yunfeng. In her eyes, Chen Xuan was far better than a villain like him.
As they talked, the car drove out of the school gate. Chen Xuan glanced at her beautiful profile and smiled. "That kind of woman isn't worth me feeling sad over. By the way, where are we going?"
"To thank you for helping me this morning, I want to treat you to a meal. Does Student Chen care to do me the honor?" Qin Feixue turned, smiling at him in a way that was exceptionally charming.
The car turned into a bustling commercial street lined with high-end shops and restaurants.
"If a beauty is treating, it would be rude of me to refuse," Chen Xuan replied with a smile. The car pulled up in front of a high-end Western restaurant.
The restaurant was lavishly decorated and clearly not a place for the average person to dine, yet it was crowded with customers, business booming. As Chen Xuan and Qin Feixue walked in, the patrons were instantly stunned by her breath-taking beauty, and eyes turned toward them.
The men in particular looked like starved beasts, eyes wide and swallowing hard. They had never seen a woman so stunning and elegant. Yet, the man beside her looked completely average from head to toe—he looked like a total loser. How could he possibly be with such a gorgeous beauty?
Jealousy can make people lose their minds; the men present cast hostile glares at Chen Xuan, as if they wanted to tear him to pieces.
Chen Xuan ignored them all. He and Qin Feixue found a window seat, and a waiter soon approached. The waiter, too, was stunned by Qin Feixue. He couldn't help but think, *This guy looks just as pathetic as me, so how can he be dining with a beauty of this level? God is truly unfair.*
Since the restaurant was a place where meals easily cost thousands, the clientele was usually wealthy or powerful. Seeing Chen Xuan’s shabby appearance, the waiter silently looked down on him, assuming he was either a poser or a gigolo.
He placed the menu in front of Qin Feixue and asked respectfully, "Madam, what would you like to order?"
"Chen Xuan, you order. Feel free to get whatever you like," Qin Feixue said, pushing the menu toward him generously.
The waiter stared in disbelief. What charm did this guy have to make such a beauty treat him so well? He had seen many couples dine here, and it was always the man trying to please the woman—he had never seen a situation like this.
Chen Xuan didn't stand on ceremony. He had used his Evil Doctor Sage Hand to activate his X-ray Vision to treat Shen Binglan earlier, which had drained his energy significantly. He’d eaten two lunches, yet by dinner, he was starving.
So, as soon as he got the menu, he ordered over a dozen dishes, leaving the waiter dumbfounded.
Qin Feixue was also surprised and couldn't help but ask, "Chen Xuan, you ordered so much—can you finish it?"
"Uh, it should be fine. Do you want to order anything else?" Chen Xuan said naturally.
Qin Feixue smiled and shook her head. Chen Xuan had already ordered so much; she didn't believe two people could finish it all. If she added more, there wouldn't be any room left on the table.
"Alright, waiter, please get those orders in soon," Chen Xuan said. His stomach was growling; he felt like he had never been this hungry in his life.
The waiter nodded. Looking at the list of dishes Chen Xuan had ordered—totaling over ten thousand dollars—his mouth twitched, but he dared not say anything. He took the menu and walked away.
