My Years as the Pure Love Interest at the Noble Academy

Chapter 93



Chapter 93

In the next moment, the man knelt down on both knees, took the ring out from the roses, and held both the rose and the ring in his hands, his eyes red as he gazed at his girlfriend, looking extremely affectionate.

From the crowd, it was unclear who started shouting first, "Marry him! Marry him!"

Human herd mentality is strong. Once someone takes the lead, others follow suit.

Only Song Yi frowned, watching the man, thinking to herself: How strange, it's the first time I've seen a marriage proposal with both knees on the ground.

Shen Yujing, on the other hand, didn't have time to think too much. He was already swept up in the lively atmosphere and started shouting along, "Marry him! Marry him!"

The next second, the woman took the rose, but contrary to everyone's expectations, instead of accepting the proposal, she threw the rose directly at the man's face and said, "I came today to break up with you. Three times in half a year, I hope you, such a scumbag, die early!"

After saying that, the woman got up and left, the sound of her high heels hitting the ground quick and sorrowful.

The scene fell into silence. No one could have expected that this would be the end of the matter.

The man, who had been hit in the face with the rose, was publicly exposed for his infidelity. Some people were whispering and condemning him.

The man in the suit, naturally, was extremely angry and in need of someone to vent his frustration on.

Surrounded by men who looked stronger than him, the man in the suit scanned the area and set his sights on a blonde teenager not far away, intending to make an example of him.

So he walked over and said, "Who are you? What right do you have to speak about the conflict between my girlfriend and me? What does it have to do with you?"

Shen Yujing: "?"

He just joined in the fun, what does it have to do with him?

Seeing Shen Yujing's silence, the man in the suit assumed he was scared and decided to use this to regain his "face."

He looked at Shen Yujing's blonde hair and said directly, "How old are you? Why dye your hair? I should teach you a lesson on behalf of your parents."

With that, the man in the suit reached out to grab Shen Yujing's hair, intending to give him a "lesson."

The man in the suit thought about making the boy lose face in front of his girlfriend, who looked delicate and weak. He imagined her being scared to tears by the scene...

Huh?

Suddenly, the man in the suit felt a hand on his arm, holding it in mid-air, making it impossible for him to push down with force.

He looked up at the owner of the hand, who was the blonde boy's delicate and weak-looking girlfriend.

Song Yi looked at the man in the suit with a smile, "What do you want to do? You deserved to be dumped for cheating. Are you taking out your frustration on unrelated people now? Out of all the people here, you picked a student. Trying to pick on the weak, huh?"

Shen Yujing: "?"

Was he a weakling?

"What did you say?" the man in the suit shouted angrily. He tried to break free but, realizing he was completely at the mercy of the young girl, his face turned even more grim.

At this point, someone couldn't stand it anymore and stood up, saying, "You're really something, taking out your frustration on a kid."

Someone else commented, "Yeah, as a man, isn't this just embarrassing?"

A woman in a suit, who also happened to be a lawyer, stood up and said, "I warn you, I'm a lawyer. If you dare to lay a hand on these two students, I'll call the police immediately."

The man in the suit's face turned black.

Bullying two students? Look who's bullying who!

Realizing this, he quickly understood that if these people saw his strength was no match for the girl's, it would be even more humiliating.

After weighing his options, the man in the suit turned and walked out.

Of course, he left a couple of threatening words, but it looked more like a hasty escape.

Song Yi didn't have any intention of holding him back, so she simply let go of his hand.

The lawyer sister looked at Song Yi and asked, "Are you two alright?"

As she spoke, she handed Song Yi a small cake from the table, saying, "Don't bother with such a scumbag. Here, this dessert is for you."

Song Yi smiled sweetly and said, "I'm fine, thank you, sister."

After saying that, the lawyer sister glanced at Shen Yujing, smiled, and looked at her boyfriend not far away as she returned, saying, "Student-era love is so beautiful. Look how well they match."

The voice wasn't loud, but it was just enough for Song Yi and Shen Yujing to hear.

Shen Yujing felt his face heat up and unconsciously lowered his head.

Song Yi: "…?"

Why was Shen Yujing's expression so strange? Was it really that big of a deal?

At that moment, a waiter brought over a two-person serving of juice, saying, "Sorry for the inconvenience, customers. This is our newly launched juice, a small gesture from us to make up for the unpleasantness."

Strawberry juice, served in a large glass jug with two straws sticking out.

Shen Yujing's mind couldn't help but recall scenes from Korean dramas he had watched with his mother.

For example, the intimate moments where the male and female leads shared such a drink, each holding their straw, looking at each other after taking a sip...

Just as Shen Yujing was lost in these thoughts, he heard Song Yi ask him, "Want to drink?"

"Ah… sure," Shen Yujing replied. He reached out to grab his straw.

The next second, he watched as Song Yi took both straws out of the glass jug.

Shen Yujing's hand, still in mid-air: "?"

Song Yi lifted the glass jug, poured a bit of juice into a drinking glass, and asked Shen Yujing, "Cup, give it here."

Shen Yujing handed over the cup in a daze, and Song Yi filled it to the brim.

Looking at the grilled meat in the bowl and the juice in the cup, Shen Yujing's mind suddenly flashed the phrase: "Drink big cups, eat big bowls."

Setting down the glass jug, Song Yi muttered curiously, "Why design a jug like this? There's only one hole in the top, and the lid can't be removed. It's not convenient to pour."

Shen Yujing fell silent for a few seconds and said, "Didn't you think that putting two straws in the jug was for you to drink directly?"

"Drink directly?" Song Yi picked up the straw that had been set aside, puzzled, "With such a long straw, wouldn't it be hard to take a sip?"

Shen Yujing: "…"

Forget it, it's impossible to explain.

Just as Shen Yujing gave up on discussing the juice, he saw Song Yi put the two straws back into the jug, biting the straw and taking a sip.

She then said in surprise, "There are strawberry seeds and coconut jelly at the bottom. You have to use the straw to drink them."

"Is that so?" Shen Yujing held the other straw, aiming it toward himself, and took a sip.

Indeed, the strawberry seeds were sweet and sour, perfectly complementing the juice.

When he looked up, his nose lightly touched the girl's nose, and the distance between them was too close.

Shen Yujing froze for a moment, then swallowed the juice.

Song Yi stared at him wide-eyed, her expression equally surprised.

Time seemed to stop at that moment, until a "click" sound broke the silence.

Shen Yujing, as if waking from a dream, immediately straightened up and turned to look at the source of the sound.

A waiter held a Polaroid in his hand, smiling as he handed them the photo, saying, "It's our store's rule to give every guest a photo we consider the most atmospheric. I wish you a pleasant meal."

The photo was in Shen Yujing's hands. It was just like the scenes he had imagined from the Korean dramas, except Song Yi was even prettier than the leading ladies, but...

Shen Yujing examined the photo in his hand, then looked up at Song Yi's current state and asked, "Why are your eyes so wide open?"

Song Yi's hand was still on her chest, saying, "How could I have expected you to suddenly lean in?"

"Isn't this for both of us? Why can't I drink it?" Shen Yujing said, thinking for a moment, then added, "I see, are you scared?"

Song Yi looked at him in confusion, "What do I have to be scared of?"

Shen Yujing swallowed hard, suppressing his unease as he pretended to be calm and retorted, "How would I know what you're thinking?"

"You're the one with something to hide," Song Yi said, losing patience with the argument. She directly extended her hand and said, "Give me the photo."

Shen Yujing promptly stuffed the photo into his pocket and said, "It's mine."

Song Yi looked at him and smiled, enunciating each word clearly: "Shen. Yu. Jing."

Shen Yujing tried to negotiate, saying, "I'll give it to you, but you have to give me that photo of us together, and delete it from your phone."

Song Yi frowned and asked, "What photo?"

Shen Yujing's expression suddenly became strange, and he stammered, "It's... it's..."

Song Yi was even more confused and said, "What is it?"

Shen ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Yujing didn't answer but instead took out a hairclip from his pocket and handed it to Song Yi.

Song Yi: "..."

Oh, she understood now.

So, Song Yi put the hairclip in her pocket, took out her phone, found the photo of Shen Yujing with a head full of hairclips, and showed it to him with a smirk, "So that's the photo you want, huh? Let's meet halfway—I'll send it to you, and you give me the photo."

Such a gem would definitely come in handy for future blackmailing of Shen Yujing.

Shen Yujing: "..."

He fell silent for two seconds before nodding, "Deal."

As soon as he received the photo, Shen Yujing handed over the instant film print in his hand.

Song Yi took the print and looked at the image of herself, her eyebrows furrowing even more.

Her eyes were wide open like copper bells, and she looked really ugly.

So, Song Yi handed it back to Shen Yujing without hesitation, saying, "Forget it, I don't want it."

Shen Yujing, however, quickly took the print and carefully slipped it into his phone case.

After finishing their meal, the two prepared to head back, but they both stopped in their tracks upon seeing the claw machine on the first floor of the mall.

When Song Yi's gaze lingered on the claw machine for three seconds, Shen Yujing immediately walked over to the coin vending machine and made a purchase.

Song Yi asked him, "Do you want to try?"

Shen Yujing: "I think you want to."

Song Yi: "Don't be ridiculous."

Shen Yujing: "I already bought the coins."

Song Yi gave a reluctant expression and said, "Fine, I'll show you my skills."

Shen Yujing asked her, "How about a competition? See who can grab more?"

Song Yi grabbed a handful of coins and confidently said, "Bring it on!"

Fifteen minutes later.

Fifty coins were spent, and the score was—

Zero to zero.

Song Yi: "..."

Shen Yujing: "..."

Song Yi said, "This mall is really outrageous."

Shen Yujing nodded in agreement, "If you can't afford to play, don't play."

Song Yi said, "How about another fifty coins?"

Shen Yujing: "Sure."

This time, it was Song Yi who bought the coins and then split them evenly with Shen Yujing.

Another fifteen minutes passed, and the competition was fiercely intense, with both of them evenly matched, still at zero to zero.

Both of them were empty-handed, with nothing to show for their efforts.

Shen Yujing: "There must be something wrong with the machine."

Song Yi: "I think you're right."

Shen Yujing: "Let's go then."

Song Yi: "Okay."

Just as the two were about to leave, an excited shout came from behind, "Wow! I got a doll!"

They both turned around to see three elementary school students gathered around the same machine, cheering with excitement over their successful grab.

Song Yi & Shen Yujing: "..."

To preserve their dignity, the two chose to remain silent and ignore the scene, walking away together.

After sending Song Yi into the taxi, Shen Yujing turned around and headed back to the mall.

Still at the claw machine, this time Shen Yujing bought a hundred coins. He simply didn't believe—

Hmm?

Just then, the three elementary school students passed by Shen Yujing, each of them now holding several dolls.

Shen Yujing: "!!!"

The golden-haired teenager quickly stepped forward, blocking the path of the three kids. He stared at the dolls in their hands, as if deep in thought.

The three elementary school students were clearly startled and exchanged glances.

The only girl among them hid slightly behind the two boys, timidly said, "My dad said that if a senior student stops us to ask for money, we should just give it to them first and tell him later."

So, the three kids dropped the dolls on the ground and quickly took out all their pocket money, which added up to less than thirty.

Shen Yujing: "..."

Did he look that much like a highway robber to them?

He took a step forward, and the three kids took a step back in unison.

Shen Yujing tried to force a somewhat "friendly" smile and said, "Tell me, kids, do you want to eat some little cakes?"

The eyes of the three kids lit up.

Shen Yujing pointed at the dolls on the ground and asked through gritted teeth, "Quick, tell me, how the hell do you grab these things?"
