Chapter 140 I’m Willing to Accompany You
Li Jingran sighed softly. “I’ve already broken off my engagement. If I can’t find a suitable person to marry in the future, then—”.
He deliberately stopped at this point.
This time, it was Xu Wanwan’s turn to be anxious. “Then what?”
“Then I’ll have to trouble you.” Li Jingran couldn’t help but tease her when he saw how serious she was.
Xu Wanwan was completely stunned, and her face had completely turned red. Was he confessing to her?
“What are you blushing about?”
Xu Wanwan quickly lowered her head. “It’s a little hot.”
Li Jingran smiled happily. “Then are you willing to trouble yourself and live with me?”
Xu Wanwan could not figure out what he meant for a long time.
“When you say live with you, is it the same as now?”
“Of course not.”
Xu Wanwan said in surprise, “Don’t tell me…you want to marry me?”
Li Jingran couldn’t help but laugh. “It seems like Miss Xu doesn’t agree.”
Xu Wanwan’s heart was pounding. Looking at the man’s handsome face and thinking about how rich he was, she was still a little tempted.
The most important thing was that he treated her very well.
But he was such an outstanding person. He would definitely find someone better. If he married her, wouldn’t it be unfair to him?
Xu Wanwan bit the corner of her lips and gave this a serious thought for quite a while. In a serious manner, she said, “You are so good, anyone who marries you will be happy.”
“But if no one really marries you, I’m willing to accompany you!”
When she said this, her gaze was clear and pure. She clenched her fists tightly as if she had made a crucial decision.
Marriage was indeed a big deal for her.
However, she only needed a few seconds to think about such a big deal because the person was Li Jingran.
Li Jingran originally wanted to tease her, but he did not expect her to return to his question so seriously.
A spring breeze seemed to blow through his heart, and his expression became gentler. “Then you must keep your word.”
Xu Wanwan did not hesitate. “Don’t worry! I’m not the kind of person who doesn’t keep her word!”
The next day, when Xu Wanwan went back to school, the Study Committee Member brought a big group of students, surrounding her.

“Class Monitor, we heard that you succeeded in becoming a disciple. Congratulations!” “That’s right, you’re indeed worthy of being our Class Monitor. You’ve really given our class some face, the other classes are all so envious.”
The Study Committee Member took the opportunity to say, “Class Monitor, since you’ve successfully acknowledged Master Nanshan as your teacher, can you help us ask for a few works from Master Nanshan? We want to collect them for our appreciation.”
Xu Wanwan had thought that they were sincerely wishing her well, but after hearing what the Study Committee Member had said, she did not think so anymore.
When she previously wanted to acknowledge Master Nanshan as her teacher, one or two of them had objected to it and even said a lot of cold words.
She knew what they were up to. Master Nanshan’s works were actually not something that ordinary people could appreciate. They wanted his works for the sole purpose of selling them at a high price.
What a good plan.
Xu Wanwan’s lips curled into a distant smile. “I’m sorry, I just succeeded in acknowledging him as my teacher. I might not be able to fulfill these requirements.”
“No rush, no rush, as long as you promise us. It doesn’t matter if you ask for it again after a period of time,” the Study Committee Member took the lead and said.
“Yeah, money isn’t a problem. At most, if you want to, we’ll look for you to buy it.”
“We’re all classmates. Surely the Class Monitor wouldn’t be unwilling to help us with such a small favor, right?”
Xu Wanwan frowned slightly.
Did they not understand the meaning of her refusal?
She simply said directly, “I’m here to learn from a teacher, not to seek benefits. I’m also very troubled by your request.”
The Study Committee Member was very unhappy. “Why are you being difficult? If you don’t want to help us, just say so. Why are you still saying such polite words?”
Xu Wanwan could not help but clench her fists. “Do you guys treat me as a classmate? If I can’t satisfy your request, you guys will turn against me. What kind of classmate are you?”
The Study Committee Member was at a loss for words. “You just didn’t want to help us in the first place. We’re all classmates. I really don’t know what’s wrong with you helping us get a few pieces of artwork.”
“That’s right, it’s not like we’re not giving you money. Why are you rejecting us so decisively?”
Xu Wanwan was a little angry and turned her head away. “Since all of you have said so, then I definitely won’t help you with this favor.”
“Xu Wanwan! You’ve already forgotten that we were the ones who elected you to be the Class Monitor!”
“What do you mean by your attitude toward us now?”
“I don’t mean anything.” Xu Wanwan calmed down. “I’ll treat you the way you treat me.”
“You!”
“What do you mean by you, ah? Do dogs bite when they’re anxious?” Lin Jianan couldn’t take it anymore, she stood up and retorted, “When Wanwan wanted to acknowledge her master, all of you were talking nonsense. Now that she succeeded, you have the nerve to make demands from her.”
“Not only did you make demands, but you also didn’t allow Wanwan to reject. If you couldn’t achieve your goal, you would start slandering her. Who would do such a thing?”
Lin Jianan could not forget the ugly faces of these people at that time.
The Study Committee Member was extremely angry and led a group of people to leave.
“Everyone, disperse! A Class Monitor like this, we don’t want it!”
“Since she’s the Class Monitor that we raised up, we can still beat her back to her original form.”
Xu Wanwan looked at their backs as they left, and her gaze became colder and colder.
“Wanwan, they’ve really gone too far.” Lin Jianan was furious. “Don’t lower yourself to their level.”
Xu Wanwan sighed softly. “Forget it, I don’t even want to bother. Just ignore them.”
“Okay!” Lin Jianan heaved a sigh of relief.
After a few seconds of silence, she hesitated. “Wanwan, actually, I have something to tell you too.”
“But if you hear it, can you not be angry?” Xu Wanwan could see that Lin Jianan wanted to say something but was hesitating.
“It’s okay, we’re best friends. If you have something to say, just say it.”
Lin Jianan let out a deep breath and said in a low voice, “Well, my father has been begging for Master Nanshan’s works recently. It’s almost his birthday. I want to…”
“I want you to help me ask Master Nanshan if he can sell me a copy.”
Without waiting for Xu Wanwan to answer, Lin Jianan quickly said, “I know it’s difficult for you to do this. It’s okay if you can’t do it.”
After hearing that, Xu Wanwan smiled faintly. “There will be a formal ceremony on Tuesday. I’ll help you ask.”
“Wanwan, you’re so nice!” Lin Jianan was touched and hugged Xu Wanwan. “I’ll invite you and Big Boss Li to my Dad’s birthday party. You have to come!”
“I can go, but I don’t know if Mr. Li is free.”
Lin Jianan quickly said, “My Dad is quite a proud man. If he knew that Big Boss Li would come, he would definitely be very happy. Can you help me invite him?”
Xu Wanwan could not bear to reject her, so she smiled and agreed. “Okay, wait for me to help you ask Master Nanshan first.”
“Nice, I’ll wait for your good news!” Lin Jianan said happily.
