She spoke very fast, and what she said was logical, specific, and well-founded.
Shangguan Qing felt his emotions swell, especially when translating the last bit. He was overwhelmed with pride.
Those boys went scarlet with embarrassment, looked at one another, then bowed at Su Xiaomo and Shangguan Qing.
“Sorry.”
The girl looked at Su Xiaomo in admiration and asked Shangguan Qing, “Who is she?”
Shangguan Qing smiled brightly. “She’s our genius painter!”
“Wow!” The girl looked even more amazed.
Shangguan Qing went up to Su Xiaomo, trying to strike up a conversation. “You were awesome back there!”
Su Xiaomo examined her wacom. Good, it still worked.
“The same to you. I said harsh words, that’s all.”
“No, no. I wouldn’t have been able to do it. I’m not as confident as you.” Shangguan Qing’s eyes sparkled. “You’re a genius and amazing. I envy you so much…”
Su Xiaomo paused a little.
Genius.
How she hated that word.
One had to admit that geniuses did exist in this world. They could outdo other hardworking people with a fraction of their talent.
But she wasn’t one of the talented ones.
She had been forced to give it all she had, but everyone ignored that and gave her the title “genius.”
Seeing the loneliness in her eyes, Shangguan Qing found the girl all the more attractive.
The Yu City delegation won that competition.
Shangguan Qing was exhilarated when he held the trophy in his hands. Summoning all his courage, he called out to Su Xiaomo. “I like you. Will you be my girlfriend?”
He repeated it in several other languages, which got all the other contestants excited as well.
Su Xiaomo didn’t say yes, but couldn’t bring herself to turn him down in front of so many people, either. She gave him a tactful reply instead. “Let me think about it.”
Delirious with joy, Shangguan Qing considered Su Xiaomo his official girlfriend since then.
Afterward, Su Xiaomo rejected him over and over again, but Shangguan Qing wouldn’t take no for an answer. One day, he followed her home and jumped out when she was opening the door. “Baby Mo, take me home to meet your parents!”
Su Xiaomo couldn’t take it anymore. “Are you a moron? Meet my ass! I don’t even f**king like you!”
Shangguan Qing was astonished by Su Xiaomo’s swearing. “You…”
“Get lost!” Su Xiaomo rolled her eyes. “I don’t want to see you ever again!”
Shangguan Qing ran away in grievance. A heavy rain began to fall and he wandered around the city aimlessly, making up stories in his head.
Su Xiaomo must have fallen in love with someone else… Yes! It was just like in the TV shows! She liked the rich and handsome guys!
He would become rich and handsome himself. After that, he would court her, get her to fall in love with him again, and dump her to get his revenge!
Shangguan Qing clenched his fists and made up his mind.

“Done… that’s all…”
“Just like that?” He Jiayu was speechless. “How does that count as a relationship?”
Su Xiaomo looked confused. “Why not? He at least pursued me…”
He Jiayu gave her a sympathetic look. “I see. You were really unpopular back then…”
“… I’ve told you everything! Let go of me!”
He Jiayu darted her a look, his eyes brooding. “You don’t like it this way?”
“Do you even need to ask?!” Try lying in a bathtub with clothes on yourself!
“Let me take them off for you, then.”
“No… that won’t be necessary. Hm…”
It was going to be a very long night.
