Chapter 516: The School Tyrant Alpha Has Been Sanctioned Again! 21

That Omega's eyes became brighter.

He sniffled, full of hope, said: "I can study and improve together with Jin Chen, and it won't feel boring."

Jiang Xun choked again.

What's wrong with you all, you top students?

Jin Chen finally had enough of the Omega's angry look, put his arm around his shoulder, and said to the Omega classmate who confessed:

"I don't have any intention of dating you, sorry."

After saying that, he left with the person in his arms, without any hesitation.

That Omega choked back a sob, wiped away tears as he left, regretting that he shouldn't have confessed in front of everyone, ending up embarrassing himself.

Jiang Xun also didn't break free, walking along while sighing with a hint of sarcasm, "Top students are just different—you can even get confessed to while buying a snack."

"The school tyrant is no different—every time he goes to play ball, a bunch of admirers rush to bring him water."

Jin Chen teased, tore open the chip bag, and fed him as they walked.

"How come I feel a little sour?"

Jiang Xun's eyes widened, he clenched and unclenched his fist, "What, what sour? What are you talking about?"

He quickly took a few steps to overtake Jin Chen, his round back of the head full of unease.

"By the way, I need to tell you, on Saturday I'm going to see Shen Can with La Tiao and them—I can't have extra lessons."

Jin Chen showed understanding, and also suggested letting Jiang Xun come to his place on Sunday for a better study atmosphere, so he wouldn't be distracted by a bunch of video games.

What was originally just a simple suggestion made Jiang Xun overjoyed.

Exactly! Going to Jin Chen's place will surely let us know what he likes, then we can take them down one by one!

He nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes!"

Jin Chen found him cute and also nodded, "Yes, yes!"

"Why are you copying me..."

Jiang Xun muttered, pouting, but couldn't suppress the smile in his eyes.

However, Jiang Xun didn't expect that Shen Can's condition had actually improved quite a bit.

——

"He had spontaneous finger movements a couple of days ago, his brainwaves are much more active than before, the doctor said if he continues this trend, waking up isn't impossible."

He is a long-term Omega caregiver hired by Jiang Xun, specifically to look after Shen Can, the pay isn't low either, so he's also quite diligent.

"Where is the doctor now? I'll go see him later to find out."

Jiang Xun saw La Tiao's delight at hearing the news, couldn't help but sigh, and exchanged a glance with Xue Yuan.

Two years have passed; although La Tiao usually appears carefree, deep down he still thinks of Shen Can.

If it weren't so, he wouldn't risk being beaten by his family just to refuse going abroad.

"He should be upstairs; I'll go let him know first."

The caregiver knew they were catching up, so he couldn't stay inside, and left perceptively.

Lu Renjia sat in a chair beside them, watching La Tiao sit by the bed staring at Shen Can without blinking, hesitated a moment and asked:

"La Tiao, do you still like Shen Can?"

We're all brothers, nothing to hide; La Tiao nodded without reservation, his eyes clearly fervent, yet his fingers dared not touch even a bit.

He knows the person Shen Can likes isn't himself.

Otherwise he wouldn't have become like this for Jiang Xun.

The boy on the bed is frail and pale, an extremely delicate and lovely appearance that makes one feel pity just looking at him.

But those bright eyes haven't opened in two years.

"Mr. Su, the doctor said he wants to talk to you alone."

The caregiver returned again and knocked on the ward door.

La Tiao, that is Su Yongwang, composed himself and followed the caregiver out.

"Jiang Xun, you should sit for a while too."

Xue Yuan seeing Jiang Xun like this also felt uneasy.

Every time they come to see Shen Can, Jiang Xun is always tense, and his overall state isn't good either.

He's always afraid that one day that string will suddenly snap.

Xue Yuan fiddled with the petals in the vase, his expression also not good.

To say he has no opinion about Shen Can would be false; although people's feelings can't be controlled, if they hadn't known him from the start, none of this would have happened.

La Tiao almost broke off relations with them.

When Shen Can was first diagnosed as vegetative, his money‑grubbing parents, who had never shouldered any responsibility for raising him, kept causing trouble all day.

Jiang Xun couldn't come up with that much money, so he could only tell his family.

That was the first time he saw Jiang Xun's parents beat Jiang Xun so hard; Jiang Xun, who hates pain, endured it without a sound.

The petals snapped in his hand; Xue Yuan froze for a moment, then casually tossed them to the floor, but juice still lingered on his fingers, annoyingly so.

"I said, his hand just seemed to move again..." Lu Renjia suddenly said.

Jiang Xun and Xue Yuan immediately looked over.

All they saw was the boy's fingers resting on his chest twitch slightly, not a small movement, as if he were struggling to wake up.

"I'll go... really should have La Tiao come take a look."

Lu Renjia sighed.

Suddenly, they saw the fingers' trembling amplitude increase even more.

He widened his eyes in disbelief, looking at Jiang Xun, "No way, is he sensitive to that name or... is it my imagination?"

Shen Can does like him, right?

Boom—

The hospital ward door burst open, and Su Yongwang strode in, his excited expression impossible to hide.

Holy shit, you scared me!

Seeing someone rush over, Xue Yuan sprang up from his chair and asked, "What did the doctor say to make you so excited?"

The doctor... the doctor said, starting from when Shen Can's consciousness gradually began to recover, they started trying to awaken him using the names of close friends and relatives.

But... he only responds to my name.

Su Yongwang's eyes reddened as he spoke; he sat beside the bed, gently holding the youth's thin, weak fingers, and said, "So... you do have me in your heart, right?"

No one expected it, but Shen Can seemed to hear those words, his pallid, near‑transparent fingers slowly, weakly grasping Su Yongwang's hand.

Suddenly, a drop of Hot Tears fell and landed on their joined hands.

Su Yongwang's eyes were red with tears, unable to contain his joy and disbelief.

His wait wasn't in vain; he finally received the good news.

Jiang Xun's tightly wound nerves finally relaxed considerably.

He stared blankly for a moment, then walked over and patted Su Yongwang's shoulder; everything was understood without words.

Xue Yuan and Lu Renjia looked as if they had seen a ghost, unable to figure out what was going on.

Lu Renjia said weakly, "Do you think it's possible... that there's more to the confession back then?"

Otherwise, how could Shen Can have lain in bed for two years and yet developed feelings for Su Yongwang?

Xue Yuan looked up in surprise, his mind racing through countless possibilities.

Could it be related to Zhou Fangshu?

Jiang Xun's expression changed, his eyes narrowing slightly.

I'll investigate.

If there really is a hidden truth, he will definitely not let Zhou Fangshu off the hook.

As if something had occurred to him, he suddenly stood up and quickly tossed out a sentence.

You guys stay with him; I have some things to attend to.
