Chapter 40

Speaking to this point, Bai Lu covered her mouth with her hand and said with feigned surprise:

"Han Han Yajing, do you think he might be doing something illegal out there?"

"I've heard... some people are always thinking about crooked ways to get rich overnight and the like!"

Hearing Bai Lu's words, Han Han Han Yajing immediately furrowed her brows.

Of course, this was not because she suspected Lin Yi, but because she felt dissatisfied with what her roommate had said.

However, in Bai Lu's eyes, this meant that Han Han Han Yajing had already begun to develop negative feelings toward that loser Lin Yi.

Thus, she struck while the iron was hot:

"Han Han Yajing, when looking for a man, you must find someone reliable; don't just get carried away and think someone is good, but look at the long term..."

"Take someone like Lin Yi; he was originally a phoenix that managed to fly out of a mountain nest with great difficulty,"

"but what happened? He wasted his opportunity for nothing. Heh, once he is actually advised to withdraw by the school, even if he disagrees, he will be expelled,"

"and at that time, this guy will have neither a diploma nor money, and in the end, he will only be able to carry bricks at a construction site."

"Han Han Yajing, do you really want to be with someone like that, only to become an old, haggard woman before you even turn thirty?"

Speaking to this point, she paused for a moment before adding:

"To be honest, with your talent and beauty, which of your suitors is not far superior to Lin Yi? For example..."

"You mean Young Master Guo, right!" At this moment, Han Han Han Yajing's eyes had turned cold.

It was well known that Beauty Han was gentle in the dormitory,

and she basically never lost her temper with others.

But listening to her roommate constantly belittle Lin Yi, a fire rose in her heart,

and her voice had just become several decibels louder.

Seeing that Han Han Han Yajing's expression was off, Bai Lu emphasized:

"Yes, what is wrong with Young Master Guo? He has good looks, he has money, and his family background is first-class..."

"Is that so? Then how do you explain those incidents at the University of International Business and Economics? Don't tell me you think I never go to internet cafes!"

Han Han Han Yajing said.

Hearing this, Bai Lu naturally knew that the other party was referring to those dirty deeds of Guo Hong.

Although most of the public opinion regarding these matters had been deleted, some traces remained.

Moreover, Shanghai Engineering University and the University of International Business and Economics were separated by only a single road,

so any rumors spread extremely fast.

Han Han Han Yajing had long heard about those things concerning Guo Hong.

Although the rumors might not be true, Beauty Han, who had just entered university, had an extremely poor first impression of Guo Hong.

The naked intentions in his eyes when he saw her made people feel nauseated and sick.

In comparison, Lin Yi gave her the feeling of an old friend of many years; there was not a trace of lust or wickedness in his eyes.

With such a comparison, it was crystal clear whom Han Han Han Yajing would choose.

"Those... are just rumors...!" Bai Lu still wanted to explain something.

However, Beauty Han did not give her a chance to explain; she stood up directly and said:

"I have something to do, I'm going out for a bit!"

After saying this, she walked straight out of the dormitory.

Leaving behind Bai Lu, whose face was twisted with gnashing teeth,

she watched Han Han Han Yajing's retreating figure and said hatefully:

"Just wait and see!"

Meanwhile, in the dormitory, Lin Yi soon received a WeChat message from Han Han Han Yajing.

"Lin Yi, I am downstairs at the men's dormitory building; can you come out for a moment?"

After seeing the message, Lin Yi left the dormitory and came to the ground floor of the men's dormitory building.

Immediately, he saw a graceful silhouette.

"How did you come here!?" Lin Yi asked.

"What, are you not welcoming me?" Han Han Han Yajing said half-jokingly.

"How could I not welcome you? It should be that our entire men's dormitory building is illuminated by your presence...!"

Lin Yi said.

"You only know how to say nice things!" Following this, Beauty Han looked as if she wanted to speak but hesitated.

"Whatever it is, just say it; it's fine!" Lin Yi said.

Hearing this, Han Han Han Yajing fell silent for a moment before gathering her courage:

"I heard people saying that you, Lin Yi, are going to be advised to withdraw from the school; is it true?"

Hearing her say this, Lin Yi did not hide anything and said decisively:

"Mm, I heard the school leaders are discussing it, but since the news has already spread, it is probably ninety percent certain!"

Hearing this, Han Han Han Yajing immediately became anxious:

"But... but... like this..."

Seeing that she looked like she was about to cry, Lin Yi immediately smiled and said:

"Hey, hey, Beauty Han, you don't think that if I am advised to withdraw from the school, something terrible will happen to me, do you!"

Pausing for a moment, he continued:

"Do you remember what I said by the Huangpujiang? I want to become the King of Shanghai,"

"and you once said that you believed I could do it; so, do you think I will be defeated by this small setback?"

Saying this, he looked at Beauty Han and continued,

"Believe me, I will make you see that however the school forced me out, so too will they beg me to return..."

Han Han Han Yajing saw that even facing such a situation, the man before her

remained perfectly composed, his eyes instead filled with a fighting spirit, a confidence capable of making the school bow its head.

To be honest, if she had encountered such a matter, she felt there was no way she could ever turn the tables.

Yet, this man, Lin Yi, made her believe that a miracle was possible.

"However, Beauty Han, could it be that you cannot bear to see me leave the school, finding the long nights slow and loneliness unbearable?"

Lin Yi teased.

Hearing this, Han Han Han Yajing immediately retorted:

"You are the one with slow long nights and unbearable loneliness! Besides, I would never miss a fellow like you; hurry up and leave, hurry up and leave...!"

However, the moment her words fell,

she casually looked up and instantly dropped her jaw in shock.

It turned out that at some point, the balcony of the men's dormitory had already filled with people.

All of these people were staring at her and Lin Yi.

Perhaps noticing that the goddess had spotted them, someone from one of the dorm rooms shouted:

"Boss Lin, the Fairy Sister is telling you to leave quickly!"

Others also shouted:

"Fairy Sister, if Boss Lin won't do, what about this humble scholar? Am I acceptable?"

"Get lost, let me do it! Sister, torment me!"

Thanks to Han Han Han Yajing hitting the trending searches a while ago, on the internal BBS forum of Modu University of Engineering,

Beauty Han was immediately ranked number one on the Campus Beauty list,

directly surpassing several senior sisters from the second and third years.

Because her appearance was as ethereal as an immortal maiden, the students of the University of Engineering privately nicknamed her Fairy Sister.

These shouts immediately caused Han Han Han Yajing herself to turn as red as an apple in an instant.

"I... I'm leaving first!"

With that, Beauty Han did not wait for Lin Yi to speak before fleeing the men's dormitory area.

Seeing her flee, Lin Yi stood in place and chuckled.

But in the blink of an eye, his gaze turned cold again.

He had not expected this matter to spread so quickly, to the point that even Han Han Han Yajing's side had learned of it.

It was very likely that someone had deliberately spread the news.
