I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 80 is enough; this is my confession.

"Ugh..."

"What's wrong with you? What are you worried about again? Is it because you didn't do well on the test? Did your family scold you?"

Tian Run patted Tong Yining on the shoulder. Seeing her listless appearance, he assumed she was upset because she hadn't done well on the exam.

But Tong Yining shook her head, stretched out her hand, and pointed in one direction of the classroom.

Tian Run looked over and saw Yin Mengran sitting in front of Zhou Heng and Tang Zhi. The three of them were eating and chatting, and seemed to be getting along very well.

Yin Mengran often had a smile on her face, and seemed much happier than when she played with me.

Tian Run immediately understood what Tong Yining was worried about. It turned out she was jealous. Seeing her former best friend now having other friends and being so happy, wasn't that a kind of NTR?

"Oh dear, don't be sad. I never expected Tang Zhi to be so good at bewitching people; she actually managed to completely deceive Yin Mengran..."

"Not really. The main reason Yin Mengran went there was because Zhou Heng was there."

"Eh?"

Tian Run looked at Tong Yining with surprise, wondering what she meant by those words.

Does this mean that Yin Mengran likes Zhou Heng?

How did those two get involved again?

"Um... I don't understand their relationship... but I advise you not to get involved..."

"participate..."

Tong Yining stared blankly at the three people in the distance, her eyes lifeless, and muttered, "I need to be able to participate too..."

Even now, the word "I like you" that Yin Mengran replied to her yesterday still keeps echoing in her mind.

She hadn't expected Yin Mengran to be so honest, to be so open about her feelings for Zhou Heng.

Even she couldn't do it... as if that last fig leaf could never be torn off again.

Now she can only watch helplessly as Yin Mengran frequently appears around Zhou Heng, their relationship growing ever closer, far surpassing that of herself...

There's no use in getting anxious, because there's nothing you can do about it.

After school in the evening,

Tong Yining witnessed Yin Mengran and Zhou Heng leaving together. The thought that the two of them would soon be returning to the same home made her heart clench.

She walked out of the school gate, her mind wandering as she thought about these things.

She didn't even notice that there was someone standing in front of her.

"Snapped!"

The person in front of her snapped their fingers, instantly snapping her out of her daze. She looked up, surprised, at the person.

Standing in front of me was a boy wearing glasses, with a neat hairstyle; he looked like the type who was a good student.

The boy spoke slowly and softly, "Excuse me, I have something I want to talk to you about. Could you spare a moment?"

"Liao Haomiao from Class One?"

The boy seemed a little surprised, raised an eyebrow, and asked, "Do you know me?"

"Nonsense, you're number one in the grade, everyone knows you, there's a picture of you hanging in the hallway."

"In that case, I won't bother with introductions. Could I take up a little of your time to chat with you?"

Liao Haomiao stepped forward, getting closer to Tong Yining, which made her a little nervous.

"What...do you want to talk about?"

Liao Haomiao put his hands in his pockets and said casually, "You're Yin Mengran's good friend, right? Could you please help me arrange to meet her? I want to confess my feelings to her."

"..."

Tong Yining's eyes widened, she was genuinely stunned, and her mouth gaped open.

"Huh? No... what did you suddenly say?!"

"What's wrong? I mean, I like Yin Mengran and I want to confess to her. Can you help me? I'll pay you for it."

Liao Haomiao didn't understand why Tong Yining was reacting so strongly, but he remained calm, as if he were talking about something insignificant.

Tong Yining calmed herself down and began to speak:

"Your news is so outdated. I'm not friends with her anymore, and I advise you not to waste your time. She has someone she likes, someone in our class."

Upon hearing this news, Liao Haomiao didn't seem too surprised.

After a moment of silence, he continued:

"It's okay. As long as we're not together yet, I still have a chance. Sorry to bother you."

After saying that, he turned to leave.

Tong Yining's lips twitched; she couldn't believe there were still such optimistic people.

"No! You don't have a chance anymore! They're already living together! They're living together!"

"Ok?"

Liao Haomiao turned to look at Tong Yining, a look of confusion on his face.

After a moment, his brow relaxed, and he said:

"It's okay, I don't care, I don't have a virginity complex."

"Damn...you're unbeatable, kid! That's not the point! The key is that they've already slept together, is it really necessary for you to interfere?"

Have they officially announced they're together?

"without..."

"That means having substance but no reputation. Let me ask you, in this day and age, do you think having substance or having reputation is more important? At least in my eyes, they are equally important. Having substance but no reputation is just being a mistress, so it is of course necessary for me to get involved."

Liao Haomiao's words were so righteous and forceful that Tong Yining was speechless for a moment, unable to refute them at all...

Normally, most people would give up if they heard they had someone they liked, right?

Who would know that the other person is already living with someone else, and yet they're still so optimistic? They even want to do something about it, it's truly outrageous...

I never expected that the top student in the grade would have such unique ideas.

but...

Tong Yining thought for a moment, what if he really could? He was, after all, the top student in the entire grade, so surely quite a few people would like him, right?

No matter what Zhou Heng does, his grades are a major weakness. No matter how much he improves, he will never catch up with Yin Mengran's grades.

She's such a good student, she shouldn't date someone who's so bad at studying. Wouldn't someone like Liao Haomiao be a better match?

If Liao Haomiao succeeds, wouldn't that mean he's successfully separated Zhou Heng and Yin Mengran?

"Hey! Wait a minute!"

Tong Yining quickly chased after him; she felt that the idea that had popped into her head should be feasible.

Yin Mengran and Zhou Heng have only known each other for a short time. Even if she likes him, it certainly isn't that deep.

Since she can like Zhou Heng, it's normal for her to like someone else, right?

Thinking about it, she realized that Liao Haomiao might actually have a chance!

Liao Haomiao was stopped by Tong Yining, turned to look at her, and asked:

"Anything else?"

"I also think you have a good chance! Let me help you! What are your plans?"

Liao Haomiao frowned slightly and muttered, "Plan? What do you mean?"

"You... weren't you going to confess your feelings? You don't have any plans at all?"

"What kind of plan do I need? True love means confessing your feelings openly and honestly. I don't necessarily want to be with her. I just want her to know that someone is attracted to her personality. That's enough. That's my confession."
