Chapter 121: Pursued by the School Belle
Chen Tianlong felt a bit confused, but after a short while, he finally realized that he was being pursued by Wu Mengting. No matter how it happened, this was a great opportunity. If he didn’t seize it, he’d be a fool.
Could it be that I’m too handsome, and Wu Mengting fell in love with me at first sight, so she can’t wait to confess to me? Chen Tianlong thought to himself.
"Chen Tianlong, I’m talking to you. Why are you ignoring me? Is it... that you think I’m not good enough for you?"
Wu Mengting’s face blushed. She had mustered up the courage to say her piece, but he was ignoring her, leaving the girl feeling frustrated.
"Oh, no, I was just surprised... Mengting, can I really be your boyfriend?" Chen Tianlong finally snapped out of it, and asked with a mix of surprise and joy.
"Yes."
When Chen Tianlong asked her like that, Wu Mengting’s face immediately flushed half red. Chen Tianlong was too direct, staring at her like that and asking, making her feel so shy she could die.
Hearing this, Chen Tianlong suddenly stood in front of Wu Mengting, his face becoming extraordinarily tender, leaving Wu Mengting momentarily stunned, then she couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Chen Tianlong was really amusing, but that’s exactly her type.
"Mengting, then... be my girlfriend."
Chen Tianlong’s words were half-joking, but in Wu Mengting’s ears, they brought a strange feeling. Many had written this line to her on paper, but only a few dared to take real action.
Listening to this, Wu Mengting felt both shy and happy. Although these words weren’t entirely serious, at this age, with this kind of love letter and face-to-face confession, it was enough to prove Chen Tianlong’s courage.
"Well... can I get a hug?" Chen Tianlong had long had this idea; he genuinely liked Wu Mengting from the bottom of his heart.
However, as soon as Chen Tianlong said this, Wu Mengting’s face immediately darkened, and she said, "Hmph, Chen Tianlong, are you just trying to take advantage of me by making me your girlfriend?"
"No, I... I like you, so I did this. Then... then I won’t hug you." Even though Chen Tianlong had been through countless experiences, he was suddenly at a loss with Wu Mengting.
Although usually calm and composed, when it came to matters of the heart, he was clumsy.
Upon hearing this, Wu Mengting secretly laughed inside. It turned out Chen Tianlong also had a cute side, not just a cold demeanor. So Wu Mengting looked around, found no one else, and before Chen Tianlong could react, she jumped into his arms.
Wu Mengting had never imagined that her first hug would happen in such a scene, with such a person.
But the happiness of this moment seemed to surpass all her dreams and any imaginary illusions.
Since it was summer, everyone wore light and thin clothes. Feeling the softness in front of Wu Mengting, Chen Tianlong got a bit excited, and his hold on Wu Mengting tightened a bit.
Wu Mengting noticed Chen Tianlong’s little move, and her face flushed, but she didn’t blame him. If they were ordinary friends, it would definitely be awkward, but they were a couple now; this kind of thing was quite normal.
"Chen Tianlong, are we progressing a bit too fast?"
After the hug, Wu Mengting was trembling, not from the cold, but due to excitement and nerves. She needed to confirm if this scene in front of her was real.
"Uh... not really, just moderately fast. I’ve seen some, as soon as they confirmed the relationship, they immediately started rolling in bed..."
"..."
Hearing this, Wu Mengting was speechless. Apparently, Chen Tianlong also wanted to roll in bed.
Wu Mengting’s face turned red with shyness, as girls would naturally feel awkward talking about such things.
"Alright, then we’ll start dating, but I have a condition. If you don’t behave or meet my requirements, I can break up with you anytime?"
Wu Mengting directly said, "Also, I think you should be more lively and cheerful. That way, you’ll look even more handsome. At least with me, you can’t always be indifferent and cold."
Upon hearing this, Chen Tianlong immediately understood Wu Mengting’s meaning. He couldn’t be as casual as before; he had to be considerate, like not being too violent in front of her or looking at other girls.
Thinking about it gave Chen Tianlong a headache. He regretted agreeing; now he was metaphorically ’hanging himself on a single tree.’
"I thought you’d like a cool demeanor. Actually, I’m not that cold. You’ll slowly find out in the future."
After some thought, Chen Tianlong agreed to the condition, then specially explained himself, afraid Wu Mengting would change her mind. After all, she was the school beauty; now that he’s with her, he needed to hold on.
As Chen Tianlong said, he wasn’t naturally sullen. It was the result of staying in the village and training for a long time. Beneath it all, he had the explosive energy of a typical young guy.
A bit mischievous, a bit wild, and a bit wicked!
"Then, Mengting, can you promise me one thing?" Chen Tianlong said with a mischievous smile that hinted at no good intentions.
"What is it? Tell me." Wu Mengting noticed something odd in Chen Tianlong’s eyes.
"It’s... can I get a kiss?" Chen Tianlong, a moment ago, heard Wu Mengting say he wasn’t lively enough and intentionally tried to show her.
"Hmph... I’m ignoring you." Wu Mengting’s face instantly turned red, but after a moment, she whispered softly, "I haven’t even brushed my teeth yet!"
"Hehe, I don’t mind!"
"Stop it, I need to go wash my face and attend class."
At this point, Wu Mengting was too shy to lift her head. A hug was one thing, but as for kissing, as a naive high school girl, she just couldn’t do it at school.
And Chen Tianlong was also just teasing her. Seeing her so shy, he didn’t continue. He escorted Wu Mengting to the dorm entrance, then went back to the dorm himself to prepare for class.
At lunchtime, Chen Tianlong was the first to appear at Class Three’s door, waiting for Wu Mengting to come out so they could eat together.
When Wu Mengting saw Nie Tian outside the door, she was surprised and happy. Their relationship felt so magical that Wu Mengting felt like she was dreaming. After exchanging a smile, everything was tacitly understood.
So, with that, Chen Tianlong held Wu Mengting’s hand, and they walked to the cafeteria together.
However, Chen Tianlong’s actions were seen by Mo Shaoyun a little ways behind, and it made him furious. Not only had Chen Tianlong taken Lin Wushuang away, but now it seemed this kid had snagged another chance at love.
As the saying goes, the uncle can endure, but the aunt cannot.
With this in mind, Mo Shaoyun began to scheme on how to deal with Chen Tianlong. Soon, a new plan was about to unfold.
