Rooftop.
"I like you, Bro Shan." The girl in pigtails shyly confessed her love to the tall figure in front of her.
The six figures, who were hiding behind the nearby pillar, let out a gasp in surprise at her words.
Li Yuri's face turned bizarre and grim. '..She's confessing to Bro Shan?'
...
Few minutes ago.
Hearing Tang Min's words, everyone was shocked.
Mo Xuanji looked at Li Yuri before hitting the back of Tang Min's head, "You brat, what are you saying?!"
Su Lan also chimed in, "Yea, Bro Min, you can speak nonsense but don't eat nonsense!"
Qi Feng reminded her, "It's the opposite."
Su Lan's face turned crimson as she said, "Yea, what I meant was you can eat nonsense but don't speak nonsense!"
Tang Min snorted as he put his hand on his hips arrogantly, "You'll see it later!"
...
"It can't be, right.." Mo Xuanji dazedly looked at the scene playing out in front of her in surprise.
"Oh my gosh.." Su Lan remarked while watching intently.
Li Yuri felt extremely nervous as she listened to them while biting the chocolate in her hands anxiously.
From what she knew, the girl with pigtails was none other than Jin Li, their famous school belle.
Many boys in their school had a secret crush on her and there were even some who were bold enough to confess to her.
But alas, this school belle turned everyone down.
She openly admitted that she was interested in Bro Shan and also became the president of God Lu fan club.
In conclusion, she was a beauty with good grades and a powerful background. Everyone was envious of her.
She pursed her lips when she saw Jin Li shyly walking towards Lu Jeongshan. What was worse that Tang Min was even whispering in her ears.
"Say, Yuri. Will Bro Shan accept the confession or not? Well, I think he will accept it, after all, Jin Li is after all our school belle."
"...Shut up."
Li Yuri was agitated by his words as her hands around the chocolate tightened.
To be honest, she wasn't sure how Bro Shan would react either. But Tang Min was right. Who wouldn't like a girl who is beautiful, talented and rich?
If she was a boy and got confessed to by Jin Li, she'd readily agree to her confession..
With that thought, her face gradually started turning pale. 'Bro Shan won't really accept it right?'
Mo Xuanji was standing behind Tang Min and could clearly hear his whispers. She frowned as she pulled his ears, "Stop spouting nonsense!"
Tang Min's face contorted as he pleaded, "Xuanji, leave me! Don't pull my ears! I didn't- Ow!"
Li Yuri was about to turn back when she heard his groans, but stopped when Qi Feng spoke softly by her ear, "Don't turn back."
Qi Feng had taken Tang Min's place while Mo Xuanji was teaching a lesson to him.
"..Sis Feng?"
Li Yuri was surprised to hear Qi Feng's voice instead of the chattering voice she was used to.
"Mmh, shall we leave?"
"..No, let's just wait."
Li Yuri also wanted to leave but even though she was clearly anxious, she actually wanted to stay and hear Bro Shan's answer.
Just then, a lightbulb lit in her mind. 'Sis Feng is dating Bro Shan, so won't she feel bad if she stayed?'
Biting her lips, she opened her mouth but overheard Jin Li's voice and paused.
"Bro Shan, please think it over! I-I really love you a lot! So please, accept my confession!"
Lu Jeongshan became impatient. He coldly spat out, "Sorry but I already have someone I like!"
His words took everyone aback. Even Li Yuri and others were also astounded.
Jin Li staggered slightly in astonishment but she still mustered up her courage and asked, "..Bro Shan, who is it that you like?"
Lu Jeongshan was in a bad mood so he frostily glared at her, "Why should I tell you?"
Jin Li bit her lips, "..I understand." She stopped before continuing, "Is it someone from your class?"
She had naturally heard rumors about him and a girl from his class being couples. So she wanted to check it by herself whether they were just rumors or really true.
Lu Jeongshan's actions froze. His eyes slightly softened at the thought of a certain someone. "Mm."
His words gave another shock to the bystanders.
Jin Li hadn't expected it to true but she wasn't someone who interfered in other's relationship.
Hence, she smiled softly but her eyes were red, "Then I'll get going and won't disturb you anymore." Shen then ran away in a hurry.
Meanwhile, Li Yuri froze when she heard his response. 'Bro Shan likes someone from our class..?'
Her gaze flitted over to the silver-haired girl behind her and her lowered eyes became dull. 'He really does likes her, doesn't he..'
She pursed her lips and frowned.
'Since he likes her so much, I don't even stand a chance, right? Moreover, what would Sis Feng think of me if I had feelings towards her boyfriend?'
She raised her head to look at the towering figure and her heart hurt so badly, as if it was being torn apart.
She slowly looked at away, lowering her head again. She had a sudden thought.
'It was better to give up..'
Li Yuri felt how foolish she was that she thought that she stood a chance on winning Bro Shan's heart. Her eyes blurred with that thought.
She just wanted to run away from everything.
Taking a deep breath, she walked towards him and called out. "Bro Shan."
Lu Jeongshan looked at her with wide eyes, he panicked slightly. Did she hear his words? Then..
When he saw the others behind her, he set his thoughts aside and asked calmly, "What are you all doing here? Aren't you going home?"
Mo Xuanji let go of Tang Min and smiled as she wrapped her arm around Li Yuri's shoulder.
"We were here to ask if you would like to go home together! Right, Yuri?"
"...Mmh." Li Yuri nodded and repeated her words monotonously, "Let's go home together.."
Lu Jeongshan softly said, "Okay."
Just like that, the seven figures left the school grounds together.
Li Yuri walked alongside with Tang Min and Lu Jeongshan.
Behind them, Su Lan nudged Mo Xuanji and muttered, "Why do I feel something's off with Yuri?"
