Pursuing Her Best Friend after Confession Failed

Chapter 427 175: Using the Sky as a Blanket, the Earth as a Bed_5

Li Yuan smiled slightly. "Alright then. Just come back to school tomorrow."

Actually, sending Bai Weixi back to her dorm would have been very simple. After all, he possessed the superpower of money. As long as the world was a society built on human relationships, not one run by robots, there were plenty of ways to get things done.

But since Bai Weixi's words indicated she didn't want to return to her dorm, he might as well take her home with him. Besides, they could play a few more rounds of poker tonight.

The paths on campus were already deserted. Li Yuan carried Bai Weixi on his back to the Lamborghini and gently set her down.

Bai Weixi stared at the cool-looking supercar and asked curiously, "Brother, when did you buy this sports car? What brand is it? The logo looks like a bull."

"It's a Lamborghini," Li Yuan replied with a casual smile, pulling open the scissor door. "I didn't buy it. It was a gift."

Bai Weixi was stunned. Overcome with curiosity, she asked again, "Brother, who gave it to you?"

At this point, there was no need to hide Jiang Zhiyu's existence. In fact, revealing it would give Bai Weixi an even greater sense of crisis. The favored are always complacent—that's just how it is. It's only when you realize you aren't the only one, when you have to compete, that you learn to truly cherish what you have. This holds true in work and in love, because that's just human nature.

"A girl gave it to me," Li Yuan answered with a placid smile.

When Bai Weixi heard that the expensive-looking sports car was a gift to Li Yuan from another girl, her heart tightened. She asked, her voice a little strained, "Brother, do I know her?"

Li Yuan stroked Bai Weixi's head and smiled. "Her name is Jiang Zhiyu. She's an incredibly talented musical prodigy and also very wealthy. The car was a gift from her."

Bai Weixi was no stranger to Jiang Zhiyu. She had watched the video of Jiang Zhiyu's duet with Li Yuan at the Ji University welcome party many times. She was a strikingly beautiful girl with a special aura, one that could make others feel inadequate with just a single glance. In the stories Li Yuan had told, Jiang Zhiyu had offered him immense help and encouragement with his novel writing. During his most difficult times, she had helped him out of the mire... She had never imagined that this direct competitor was not only gorgeous and a wonderful singer but also fabulously wealthy. To give away a sports car so casually... this woman was the real deal—a stunningly wealthy beauty.

This made Bai Weixi, who was already worried that Li Yuan might leave her, even more nervous and filled with a sense of crisis.

She couldn't sing as well as the other girl, her aura wasn't as exceptional, and her family background wasn't even worth mentioning... She had no idea what she could possibly use to compete.

Bai Weixi sank gloomily into the Lamborghini's passenger seat, her heart heavy with worry.

After today, she finally understood. Aside from occupying the 'first love' position in Li Yuan's heart, she didn't have a single other advantage. What if, one day, Li Yuan grew tired of his 'first love'?

Seeing the look on Bai Weixi's face, Li Yuan knew exactly what she was worried about. This was precisely the result he wanted. He needed to give her hope and a sense of security, but also make her understand that she was neither unique nor irreplaceable.

"Bai, don't worry. I like you all the same."

"As long as you don't leave me, I will never abandon you."

Hearing Li Yuan's promise, a faint smile returned to Bai Weixi's worried face.

"Brother, I love you so, so much. I will never, ever leave you."
