Chapter 429: Singing a Confession

~8 min read 1,443 words

The endless stream of customers at the milk tea shop left Wu Yueer feeling both pained and happy; the initial shot had been fired, the customer response was quite good, and from here on, she just needed to proceed steadily.

Building up the business was not a difficult task.

However, once things got busy, it was truly exhausting and overwhelming.

Since the milk tea shop was already on the right track, Shen Yan did not intend to continue wasting time here.

However, when he walked out of the shop door, the scene outside left him speechless for a moment.

He saw a stylish young man wearing a white T-shirt and sporting a Hong Kong-style side-swept hairstyle standing directly opposite, while the students queuing up all wore expressions of eager onlookers.

There was no other reason.

The pattern on that white T-shirt nakedly displayed the man's purpose for this visit.

In the center of the T-shirt, the three large characters "Wu Yueer" were depicted, surrounded by a heart shape and filled in completely with red paint.

This was a confession of love.

Additionally, the young man held a microphone in his hand, connected to a speaker by his leg.

It looked like he was prepared to sing a song.

When rivals in love meet, they are especially jealous; under normal circumstances, Shen Yan should have taken the initiative to stop this behavior before the young man even started.

However...

Considering the milk tea shop had just opened, would it not be a pity not to take advantage of such a good promotional opportunity?

Thus, Shen Yan pulled Chen Shanni to the side of the main entrance and quietly began to enjoy the young man's performance.

Chen Shanni was greatly puzzled: "Why not stop him now?"

"A man boldly confessing his love to a milk tea shop owner—what a great promotional gimmick, why stop it?" Shen Yan's eyes flashed with a sharp glint.

Chen Shanni's eyes widened into perfect circles; could one really do that? It seemed it was actually possible, and very much worth doing.

"You old fox!"

Although Chen Shanni muttered very softly, almost inaudibly, Shen Yan still heard it clearly.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one else was paying attention, he slapped Chen Shanni on her backside.

It was firm and bouncy.

"Dare to speak ill of me?"

"Ah!" Chen Shanni exclaimed, covering her little bottom, her pretty face flushed crimson.

"No... nothing."

How could she have known Shen Yan's ears were so sharp that he could even hear a sound as small as a butterfly flapping its wings?

"Can you not hit me like that in the future? There are so many people outside."

"Oh? Do you mean it's fine to hit you when there are fewer people?" Shen Yan's lips curled into a wicked smile, leaning close to her ear with a teasing tone.

The hot breath hitting her ear made Chen Shanni panic; once this guy became indecent, she had absolutely no room to parry.

The more she said, the more wrong she was; it was better to just ignore him.

At this moment, the young man was finally ready, and the performance officially began.

The song was titled "Love Is Simple".

Forgot how it started~

Perhaps it's just a feeling I have for you~

Suddenly discovered myself~

Deeply in love with you~

It had to be said that the young man did have some skill; he sang with deep affection, his pronunciation hit every beat, and his voice flowed through the heart like a gentle spring.

Many young girls present had eyes sparkling with longing.

He was tall and well-proportioned, looked quite handsome, and sang so beautifully.

If only he were their boyfriend.

The singing echoed over Gourmet Street, and the flow of people within a hundred meters was attracted by the commotion.

They cast curious gazes one after another.

Quite a few people even walked toward the milk tea shop, wanting to see what was going on.

The customers inside the shop could no longer be bothered to drink their milk tea and all rushed outside to watch the excitement.

"Wu Yueer, that person outside is confessing to you."

Someone shouted.

???

With her perfectly good business being disrupted, Wu Yueer was suddenly furious; she clenched her delicate fists, wanting to give the person causing trouble at her shop entrance a lesson they would never forget.

Like a birthday star hanging himself—tired of living.

Confessions were one thing; it wasn't the first time she had encountered such a thing.

The key was that this guy didn't come early or late, but had to pick the moment of the milk tea shop's trial opening.

She lifted the door curtain and walked out.

Seeing the main character appear, the young man couldn't help but sing even more vigorously.

I LOVE YOU~

Always here, baby~

Always loving you, oh...

After all, now that she was a shop owner, she couldn't be as willful as before; given Wu Yueer's fiery personality, she would normally have walked up and kicked the speaker over right then and there.

Then she would have pointed at the young man and cursed him out.

But this time, she did not act recklessly.

The young man before them, named Tao Zhe, was a sophomore at the Communication University of China, with a hide as thick as a city wall; a few days ago, when the milk tea shop was being renovated, he had acted as if possessed the moment he saw Wu Yueer, vowing that he would marry no one but her in this life.

"A person has 24 ribs; the moment I saw you, I grew a 25th."

His little mouth could chatter away, and sweet nothings rolled right off his tongue.

At a glance, he was clearly a veteran scumbag.

No amount of scolding worked, and ignoring him only made him more energetic; now he was actually pulling a stunt like this in public—if he wasn't taught a harsh lesson, he wouldn't know how many eyes the Lord of the Horse had.

Wu Yueer took out her phone, dialed 110, and held it up before Tao Zhe's eyes.

The singing came to an abrupt halt.

Of course, Tao Zhe did not shrink back because of this; he took a bouquet of roses from a companion.

Then, under the gaze of the crowd.

He knelt on one knee.

"Wu Yueer, love at first sight is the fate between you and me, but distance is the obstacle between us..."

Tao Zhe's voice was full of sincerity, but the moment the words left his mouth, he was mercilessly interrupted by Wu Yueer: "I'll give you two choices now: one, leave immediately and don't disturb my business; two, I call the police and report you for sexual harassment."

Upon hearing this, Tao Zhe did not show the slightest sign of panic: "Go ahead and report it; the police cannot change my determination to like you."

It was just singing a song to confess his love; what could the police possibly do to him?

Wu Yueer didn't waste words and decisively dialed the number.

Shen Yan could see that the other party was a shameless person, and calling the police wouldn't be of much use against someone like that.

In times like these, force had more of a deterrent effect than reasoning.

Thus, he walked straight to Wu Yueer's side and, under her surprised gaze, said coldly: "I'll give you one last chance to choose: are you leaving or not?"

"Who are you?" Tao Zhe's demeanor was arrogant, and he didn't put Shen Yan in his eyes at all.

"I am Yue'er's friend, and her business is my business."

As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers present all perked up, especially the students who knew Shen Yan and Wu Yueer; they were absolutely thrilled.

A stranger confesses to the Most Beautiful School Beauty, and the Rice Noodle Brother acts as the protector of the flower.

This drama was simply too exciting.

"If I don't leave, what can you do about it?"

Tao Zhe scanned back and forth between the two, his expression gradually turning gloomy.

Shen Yan elegantly unbuckled his watch, handed it to Wu Yueer, and then said to the surrounding crowd: "Everyone watching, please step back; it wouldn't be good if you were accidentally injured."

???

Holy crap!

Is it really this intense? If words can't solve it, they're going straight to force.

The crowd of onlookers retreated a few steps in fear, leaving an empty space, yet they didn't back away too far, terrified of missing a clear view of the heated fight.
