Indeed, telling the truth will get you a lighter sentence .
The next morning, Ye Wan Wan went to class feeling at ease .
Soon after she sat down, a shadow was cast over her head . Ling Dong stood in front of her looking calm .
Seeing this, Ye Wan Wan shot a suspicious gaze over .
Everybody in class looked at the both of them, hungry for gossip .
Ling Dong pressed his lips together, looked at Ye Wan Wan with a serious face and said, "Ye Wan Wan, I don't know where you've heard that rumour but I swear, I'm definitely not pursuing you because of a lost bet or tricking you . I'm serious! Please believe me!"
"Oh——" All the students around burst into an uproar .
Ye Wan Wan's face darkened instead . She had painstakingly thought of this idea last night to refute the rumours but in the end, everything was ruined by this guy .
Looking at the boy's hurt face, Ye Wan Wan stroked her forehead in silence, "The things I told you yesterday were also true, don't you believe me?"
What did she tell me yesterday?
The part where she said that she has a boyfriend?
"Yeah right!" Ling Dong replied boldly .
"I'll bring you to meet him tonight . " Ye Wan Wan replied so softly that only Ling Dong and Si Xia beside her could hear .
Ling Dong suddenly realised who the "him" was and a flicker of amazement crossed his face but he quickly regained his composure, "Sure!"
Finally, class ended .
After dinner, there was no one in the school garden . Ye Wan Wan called Ling Dong out and both of them went to a restaurant not far away from school .
Ling Dong sat on the sofa opposite her with a look of certainty, as if he had already seen through Ye Wan Wan's scheme .
She would either give up and say it was all an act, or she would find someone to act as her boyfriend . The latter was more probable unless the guy was blind and couldn't see her ridiculous get-up .
Either way, he would never give up!
Ye Wan Wan naturally knew what was on Ling Dong's mind and didn't offer any explanation . She looked at the time on her phone--Si Ye Han should arrive in about twenty minutes .
"Can I ask you a question?" Ling Dong suddenly asked .
Ye Wan Wan nodded, "Yes?"
Ling Dong stared at Ye Wan Wan's heavily powdered face and coughed lightly, "You . . . You're so beautiful . . . Why do you do this to yourself on purpose . . . "
Ye Wan Wan took a sip of her juice and blinked, "Because my boyfriend likes it!"
Ling Dong was speechless like he got choked on dog food .
"Wan Wan, you don't have to pretend anymore, is it that hard to accept me? Even though I'm not as good looking as Si Xia, I dare say I'm not too shabby too . Anyway, when we're together, I'll never let anybody bully you and you can walk freely in school!" Ling Dong's tone was full of confidence . Of course, he had the ability to make all of that happen .
Ling Dong's popularity in school was only second to that of Si Xia, otherwise, his affection wouldn't have caused everybody to hate her .
Ye Wan Wan rested her chin, "I only have feelings for my boyfriend~"
Ling Dong gave a helpless expression, then his eyes slightly glistened, "Fine, Wan Wan, since you insist that I don't believe you, I'll start believing you now . I'll believe everything you said, believe that you have a boyfriend and believe that your boyfriend treats you as well as you said . But what if your words are proven to be false and you were lying to me this whole time?"
Ye Wan Wan took a big bite of caramel pudding and without thinking, said, "If I was lying to you, then I'll agree to be with you!"
After Ling Dong heard that, his face immediately brightened, "Are you serious?"
Ye Wan Wan nodded sincerely, "Of course I am!"
