Jiangyx Jiang felt she was facing the toughest problem of her eighteen years.
How to apologize to someone.
It shouldn’t be hard—everyone makes mistakes. She’d said sorry before.
But this time, the person was different.
He was a boy she’d always looked down on, even disliked. Yet last weekend, he’d saved her.
Afterward, he’d loudly called out her mistakes in front of everyone, sparing no feelings.
Jiangyx had almost cried from the hurt.
Later, she realized he truly wanted the best for her.
So she wanted to apologize for her past attitude and thank him.
But she couldn’t gather the courage to speak up.
She messaged Cheng Yu’s roommate, Zhou Weihua, hoping to create a chance through him.
“Zhou Weihua, I need to talk to Cheng Yu alone. Can you help?”
After sending it, Jiangyx sighed in relief and put her phone away to focus on class.
Zhou Weihua stared at the message, stunned.
He reread it carefully, picturing Jiangyx’s shy expression.
He glanced at Cheng Yu, snoring at his desk, and grinned mischievously.
“No problem. I’ll set it up at noon.”
Zhou Weihua replied, buzzing with excitement. He leaned forward to whisper:
“Hey, listen up… the class monitor’s gonna confess to Cheng Yu at lunch.”
…
Hou Chen and Bai Ka were Cheng Yu’s other law school roommates.
They’d passed out drunk before the weekend bar incident and knew little about it.
They’d only heard Cheng Yu had heroically protected everyone there.
So impressive. So cool. Of course someone would fall for him.
After Zhou Weihua’s story, they believed it instantly. Whispering together, they grew more certain.
They turned to their front desk mate:
“Psst… the class monitor and Cheng Yu are getting together!”
…
Words are like raw jade—you never know how others will carve them.
Rumors spread fast and twisted in class. Everyone whispered excitedly, adding wild details.
“Did you hear? The class monitor and Cheng Yu are already dating!”
“Pass it on—Cheng Yu confessed to her!”
“Pass it on—he’s been in love since first sight!”
“Hey, did you know? Cheng Yu likes our class monitor?”
“…Oh?”
Linsw Lin lifted her face, brushing a stray hair from her temple.
“…I’d really like to hear more about that.”
Jiangyx checked her phone, satisfied with Zhou Weihua’s reply.
Now she could finally apologize properly.
She let out a long breath.
…
Cheng Yu, the other party, had slept all morning.
After caring for his roommate Lin Jie all weekend, he was exhausted.
He snoozed through four constitutional law classes, yawning awake at last.
…Huh?
Why were his classmates sneaking glances at him?
Did his charm level rise again?
He checked his system panel—only a two-point increase.
No clue. Whatever. He still needed to grab lunch for Lin Jie.
Cheng Yu shook his head, noticing his roommates had vanished.
He frowned but didn’t dwell on it. Standing to leave—
“Cheng Yu!”
Two sweet voices rang out, drawing everyone’s attention. Cheng Yu turned to see Jiangyx Jiang and Linsw Lin.
Jiangyx glanced at Linsw, surprised to see the class beauty also approaching Cheng Yu.
Linsw smiled outwardly but glared inwardly at Jiangyx.
Get away from my prince, woman.
She didn’t believe Cheng Yu liked this loud girl, but her hostility flared.
She stepped forward first:
“Cheng Yu, are you free to eat off-campus at noon…?”
“Nope. I’m busy.”
Cheng Yu refused instantly, rolling his eyes mentally.
Eat alone with Linsw? Joke’s on me—that’s like sticking my head under a cleaver!
Linsw froze, then her eyes sparkled with excitement.
He rejected me again…? Ah, my prince truly is different from other boys!
But I’ll never give up!
“Then, Cheng Yu, um… would you join me for lunch in the cafeteria?”
Jiangyx stammered. Cheng Yu thought he heard classmates murmur “Ooooh.”
“…I’ll be at the cafeteria. What about it?”
“S-so… how about we eat together there, Cheng Yu?”
“!? Linsw Lin, I was here first…”
“Oh, class monitor, you hadn’t even asked. It’s Cheng Yu’s choice anyway.”
“Huh!? That’s not fair—no way!”
Cheng Yu sensed his classmates’ energy spiking. Had he slept into tomorrow?
He rubbed his nose, struggling to speak: “Well…”
