A Chan – CH 140

Chapter 140: Forced Childhood Sweetheart (1)

Li Weiyi’s words were like a key, unlocking the switch of Zhang Jingchan’s memories. Many vivid scenes and chaotic emotions seemed to have happened yesterday.

After that night in 2014, everything returned to calm. 19-year-old Zhang Jingchan returned to his uneventful university life. But from then on, the name “Li Weiyi” appeared in his life, like a tight headband from Guanyin Bodhisattva, constantly binding his unruly young heart.

At school, Li Yunmo would whisper in his ear, “Aren’t you going to see your sister-in-law today?”

“You really don’t remember anything about the past few days? You don’t even remember Xu Yi stealing your wife?”

“Damn, you have no idea how shameless you became later, prioritizing women over friends and being extremely possessive. But considering you supposedly spent eight years as a monk before someone wanted you, I’ve decided to forgive you.”

…

At home, not only Wu Xinhui but even Zhang Moyun already considered Li Weiyi as their future daughter-in-law.

Wu Xinhui: “Ah Chan, this is some chocolate your Uncle Liu brought back from abroad. Take it to Weiyi.”

Wu Xinhui: “Ah Chan, Weiyi is taking the college entrance exam next year. I’m telling you, there are some things you can’t do. Don’t let them affect her college application.”

Wu Xinhui: “Why haven’t you gone to see Weiyi these past few days? Although you shouldn’t disturb her studies, you can’t just ignore her. What kind of boyfriend are you?”

Zhang Moyun had completely calmed down from the intense emotions of father-son bonding and defying fate he had felt a few days ago. Looking at his son, whose face radiated youthful arrogance, he found fault with everything about him and said coldly, “I didn’t care about your messy girlfriends before. But if you don’t uphold male virtues from now on, I’ll break your legs.”

Wu Xinhui: “What male virtues?”

Zhang Moyun smiled lovingly: “When this kid was in a vegetative state, I heard Weiyi constantly spouting new terms, basically telling him to be devoted to her.”

Zhang Jingchan, who had been silently listening to the lecture, suddenly kicked the coffee table heavily, stood up, and said, “What girlfriend? I didn’t even chase after her. I’ve barely seen her, and I’m supposed to uphold male virtues for her?” He slammed the door and left.

Zhang Moyun and Wu Xinhui were shocked. After a while, Wu Xinhui whispered, “Honey, we did not…make things worse, did we? What if he gets annoyed with Weiyi now and dumps her? What’ll we do in 2022? Cry while watching Weiyi marry someone else? That kid, sigh! He’s so hot-tempered.”

Zhang Moyun frowned deeply. After thinking for a moment, he said, “That kid hates being controlled. We should say less in the future, lest it backfire.”

Zhang Jingchan rushed out of the villa. The Ferrari had already been sold, leaving him only a slightly worn Audi. He drove to the gate of Li Weiyi’s high school.

He was actually quite annoyed, too. He woke up to find his future wife already arranged. Although he had prepared himself to be a Casanova, remaining chaste and waiting for her for eight years, being willing was one thing, but being forced into a relationship was another. And he was only 19, she wasn’t even an adult yet, and he was already expected to take on lifelong responsibility for her? He felt suffocated just thinking about it.

Zhang Jingchan hadn’t figured out why he’d come to the high school. True to his nature, he couldn’t be the only one unhappy.

After waiting a while, high school let out. He knew Li Weiyi was a day student, going home for lunch. He rolled down his car window, one hand on the door, fingers fidgeting, staring intently at the gate.

Such a handsome young man, driving a nice car, decked out in trendy brands, and utterly aloof, attracted many eyes.

Li Weiyi had no idea that her nominal boyfriend had gone crazy and stormed into the school gate. High school seniors were so busy; after the case was over, she hadn’t even had time to process her emotions or process information before being overwhelmed by the sea of ​​over forty unfinished tests and assignments. So much so that even now, she hadn’t realized she was “taken.”

She walked out of the school gate, arm in arm with her best friend, radiant. Today she didn’t have to wear her school uniform; she wore a shirt and skirt, revealing her shapely, fair legs. She’d always been a funny person. She said something that made all the girls around her burst into laughter, while she wore a sly smile; in the sunlight, you could even see the fine downy hairs on her cheeks. Then she leaned her head on her best friend’s shoulder, clinging to her like a boneless corpse. Her friend dragged her along, completely unconcerned about her appearance, her tiny frame hanging precariously on her taller friend’s back.

Zhang Jingchan touched his nose.

Damn.

So cute.

Li Weiyi hadn’t seen Zhang Jingchan and was about to pass by the car.

Zhang Jingchan honked the horn, and their eyes met through the car window. Zhang Jingchan clearly saw her small face flush instantly, her body stiffen, and she released her friend’s arm, tugging at the hem of her shirt.

Zhang Jingchan suddenly felt a sense of balance. He wasn’t the only one anxious about this.

Zhang, the seemingly calm young master, revealed his inherent arrogance. Leaning forward, he opened the passenger door and gestured with his chin towards Li Weiyi: “Get in; I have something to tell you.”

Her best friend’s eyes sparkled. She grabbed Li Weiyi’s arm and whispered, “Who’s he? He’s so handsome.”

Li Weiyi mumbled, “A relative. You go home first; we’ll go to class together at noon.”

As the car drove away from the school under everyone’s watchful eyes, Zhang Jingchan asked, “How come I didn’t know we were relatives?”

Li Weiyi: “Then what do you want me to say?”

Zhang Jingchan paused.

Li Weiyi just wanted to go home as soon as possible.

She had previously decided to wait for him for eight years, to be with him for eight years. But acting like a hooligan to a person who couldn’t move or speak was one thing; acting like that to a grown man, over six feet tall, incredibly handsome, and arrogantly aloof, was quite another.

“What do you want from me?” Li Weiyi asked bluntly.

In the past, if a girl had been this rude, Zhang Jingchan would have simply turned and left. He’d broken up with people after only three days; he’d done it before.

Now, the young master Zhang swallowed his anger.

“I’ll treat you to a meal.”

Even a fallen camel was bigger than a horse. Although Fuming’s assets were liquidated, Zhang Jingchan still received a much larger allowance than the average college student each month. He ordered a large table of dishes. Li Weiyi frowned at the sight and said, “Why are you so wasteful?”

The young master Zhang, in a bad mood, also remembered that he was no longer the same person he used to be and said irritably, “If we can’t finish, we’ll pack it up and split it equally. We can eat it slowly at home.”

Li Weiyi: “…”

It seemed reasonable, yet also incredibly stupid.

Zhang Jingchan tilted his head back and chugged half a bottle of iced cola, slamming it down with a “bang.” Li Weiyi’s heart skipped a beat. She looked up and met his direct gaze.

“What do you think about our situation?”

Li Weiyi’s face flushed again, and she wolfed down several mouthfuls of rice.

She blushed, but Zhang Jingchan smiled and said slowly, “Why are you blushing? It’s just those things between men and women. Anyway, we are destined to be together in the future, so let’s discuss it properly now and avoid detours. What’s there to be nervous about?”
