971: Who Are They Fighting For?

Who Are They Fighting For?

Two equally exceptional young men stared at each other, one with quiet calmness while the other with cool indifference.2

Just the two of them standing like that made for a brilliant sight.

"I feel like I don't understand what's going on."

"Who are they fighting for?"

"Nonsense, of course it's for Huo Run!"

The students gossiped along those lines, but Huo Run knew that the standoff between Yan Sinian and Mo Ning was definitely not about her.

Or rather, it was not about winning over her.

Yan Sinian detested her, while Mo Ning was protecting her.

The thought made her feel equal parts touched and sorry for Mo Ning. Those emotions grew larger until they consumed her.

Yan Sinian raised an eyebrow and asked, "Respect? What gives you the right to say those words to me?"

For a moment, he felt that he was deluded.

Could he really have made a mistake? Was this truly Mo Ning, a man who like women, the brother of that little wild cat?

The moment of doubt lasted for only a second.

Yan Sinian had always been confident of his own decisions.

Since he had promised Mo Ning to play this game… 

When the time comes, he would know if he was right or wrong.

Mo Ning was not afraid to meet Yan Sinian's threatening smile with her own.

"Haven't you always behaved like a gentleman? I think of you as my model, but your actions today leave me baffled."

Very good.

You leave me no choice.

"It's because I am a gentleman that I always keep my promises."

Yan Sinian narrowed his eyes and smiled innocently.

Nevertheless, all Mo Ning could see was a cunning smile.

"By the way, may I ask, do you remember what I said to you last time, Mo Ning?"

What?

Wait a sec!

She remembered!

If she ever tried to flirt again, he would kiss her, no matter the setting or who was with them!

F*ck!

Mo Ning's eyes widened slightly with fear.

To prove that he would actually do it, Yan Sinian slowly took a few steps forward, ready to launch himself onto her and fulfill his promise.

Mo Ning was afraid, but there was no way for her to retreat. The commotion offstage was getting louder.

She inhaled deeply and faced her opponent.

"Senior Yan, who will you vote for?"

Yan Sinian's eyes twinkled in amusement at the sudden change of topic.

Are you trying to avoid this?

He would not let her win.

He would deliver the promised kiss!

Mo Ning read his thoughts from his face instantly and felt exasperated.

If he really kissed her in public, her plan would all come to nought and she would never be able to show her face there again!

The b*stard!

With all those thoughts racing through her head, Mo Ning lowered her voice so that only he could hear her say, "Yan Sinian, if you would be so generous and help me this time, I will fulfill one request from you, as long as it does not involve sleeping with you. What do you say?"

Yan Sinian halted in his tracks and considered the proposal.

"... Deal."

Mo Ning finally relaxed, but glared at him for causing such a ruckus.

Yan Sinian raised an eyebrow and looked at her challengingly. Nevertheless, he said out loud, "Seeing as we are roommates, I will follow your wishes this time."

He slowly turned around and declared, "I forfeit my vote."

Mo Ning was surprised.

Was he actually trying to help her calm things down?

"Senior Yan, I may not be running for this election, but I thank you. Your decision will make one beautiful lady very happy."
