His indifferent attitude only fueled the Class Flower's desire to conquer him even more. She began to intensify her efforts, showering Mu Yunze with concern in public settings. During breaks, she would deliberately approach him, asking about his studies with genuine interest. At the cafeteria, she would casually sit across from him, offering to refill his plate. Even on the way back to the dormitory, she would create opportunities for chance encounters, chatting about trivial matters as they walked together.
Not only that, but the Class Flower also started giving Mu Yunze various expensive gifts—limited edition sneakers, designer watches, high-end headphones—trying to win his heart through material means. Yet, Mu Yunze rejected each one without hesitation. However, the Class Flower did not give up; she decided to go all out and confess her feelings publicly.
On a sunny afternoon, she appeared in the crowded cafeteria holding a large bouquet of bright red roses. Taking a deep breath and summoning her courage, she declared loudly, "Mu Yunze, I like you! Be my boyfriend!"
The sudden confession sent shockwaves through the cafeteria. Everyone around stopped eating, staring in disbelief at the scene unfolding before them. Whispers began to circulate; some pulled out their phones to record while others whistled and chanted, "Get together! Get together! This is big news! The school beauty just confessed; if this gets out, it will definitely make headlines on the school forum."
Mu Yunze stood up expressionlessly and took the bouquet from the Class Flower's hands in front of everyone. Just when everyone thought he would accept her affection, he threw the flowers into a nearby trash can.
Then he coldly stated, "Sorry, I don't like you." His voice was not loud but was clear enough for everyone to hear—there was no hesitation, no hint of sympathy.
The Class Flower's face turned pale instantly; she felt as if her blood had turned to ice. She never expected Mu Yunze would reject her so publicly and so ruthlessly.
The murmurs of students around her transformed into sharp laughter that pierced her ears like needles. She felt like a clown being humiliated in front of everyone.
The onlookers were equally stunned by Mu Yunze's actions; they had not anticipated that this seemingly ordinary boy would dare to reject the school beauty so decisively.
"Wow! Impressive! This guy really has guts!"
"That's so disrespectful! The Class Flower is a big deal!"
"This kid is finished! The Class Flower has many suitors; he better watch out!"
However, Mu Yunze's rejection soon provoked retaliation from those pursuing the Class Flower. Zhao Qing, a wealthy second-generation heir who had been pursuing her relentlessly, had always disliked Mu Yunze. Seeing him dare to reject the Class Flower ignited his fury.
"Kid, you're pretty arrogant! Do you know who I am?" Zhao Qing approached Mu Yunze with several followers in tow.
Mu Yunze glanced at him dismissively and replied, "I don't care who you are. Get lost as far as you can; don’t bother me."
Zhao Qing's expression darkened; he hadn’t expected Mu Yunze to speak to him like that. With a cold laugh, he said, "Kid, you're asking for trouble! Brothers, get him!"
Several of Zhao Qing's followers immediately surrounded Mu Yunze, ready to fight. Mu Yunze smirked and cracked his knuckles; it seemed he would need to stretch his muscles today.
At that moment, a figure rushed forward and stood in front of Mu Yunze. "Stop! What do you think you're doing?"
It was Han Jincheng. She had been studying in the library when she heard someone mention that Mu Yunze was being cornered and rushed over.
"Oh look, isn’t this Han Jincheng? What’s wrong? Do you want to play the hero?" Zhao Qing said sarcastically.
Han Jincheng shot him a glare and replied firmly, "Zhao Qing, stop talking nonsense! I just can't stand by while you bully someone!"
