Qi Yusen’s lips curled up. He held Qiao Qing by the shoulder and walked out.

  After everyone left, Feng Heng remained where he stood and didn’t move.

  Qi Feng hesitated for a long time before weakly suggesting, “Sect Leader, since Ms. Qiao likes that demonic sl*t, you should give her up. There are many other nice girls in the world.”


  He didn’t sound very confident in that last statement. It was true that there were many nice girls in the world, but he’s never met one who’s as capable as Qiao Qing. It wasn’t a surprise that the Sect Leader and third young master Jun were both in love with her.

  But no matter how nice the girl was, if her heart wasn’t with you, it was no use.

  Feng Heng used his thumb to rub the fishbone shaped necklace that he wore around his neck, “Give up? How’s that possible? I have tried for three years and I didn’t give up. Why would I retreat now? As long as she’s not married, I will dream about getting her into a wedding dress for me.”


  Qiao Qing and Qi Yusen left the school gate and were just about to get into the car when Jun Yexuan grabbed onto her hand, “Brother, I need to borrow Qingqing. I just need her during the ride back!”


  Then, before he allowed them to react, he ran away holding onto Qiao Qing.

  Ning Ye stared at the duo who dashed away like a female and male lead in a drama and shook his head, “Third young master sure is happy tonight.”


  When he said that, Qi Yusen’s face darkened and he had to shut up.

  Qiao Qing was forced into Jun Yexuan’s car. The moment she sat down, he occupied her hands.

  Jun Yexuan stared at her excitedly, “Qingqing, have you accepted me?”


  Qiao Qing, “.…… how many times must you ask every day?”


  Jun Yexuan, “So that means you’ve accepted me, right?”


  Qiao Qing, “.……”


  Jun Yexuan pulled her into a hug, “You say I ask you every day, but you’ve never given a straight answer.”


  “I have been taking advantage of the ambiguity. Though I go around acting like I got the title, I cannot truly overlook the doubt and uncertainty I feel inside.”


  “Like today, I was happy thinking that you rejected Feng Heng for me. But at the same time, I was worried that I had assumed things. Can you make me feel more secure?”


  Qiao Qing remained silent for a while before she opened her mouth, “If you are asking whether or not you have the title of the boyfriend, I think you do.”


  Before Jun Yexuan could get too happy, she continued, “But like I’ve also said, I cannot be honest with you right now. There are more important things for me to do right now.”


  “If I succeed and you still like me, then I will tell you all of my secrets and take you to meet a very important person.”


  Jun Yexuan’s heart quivered at those words. Of course, he knew what she was referring to.

  He hugged her very tightly and ran his fingers through her hair, “Stupid girl. When you have ever been so unconfident? You’re the baby I’ve given my all to get. How is it possible that there will come a moment when I don’t like you?”


  “I even think that a lifetime is too short to express my love to you. If you don’t believe me, then let time prove it.”


  When they arrived at the manor, Qiao Qing went to the library like normal. Jun Yexuan on the other hand went to the study room to make a call.

  After the call, he turned on his laptop and his camera. On the screen was a medical team.

  One of the doctors spoke, “Young master Jun, you should know that there is a lot that remains unknown regarding patients in a vegetative state.”


  Jun Yexuan said, “That’s why I am asking you to research it. Funding is no problem.”


  The doctor sighed, “Then, we will give it a shot. But I must ask, why did you decide to research into this field?”
