Marriage as a Game

Chapter 61: I kissed you once, why can’t I kiss you a second time?

There was a hint of smile in Shang Jiang's dark eyes.

"I kissed you once, why can't I kiss you a second time?"

This statement is a bit annoying.

Shen Chaoxi didn't hesitate and stretched out his hands to slap him on both arms.

She was very strong and Shang Jianghan was pushed directly to her position.

Seeing the girl's blushing cheeks and angry eyes, Shang Jianghan had no choice but to beg for mercy.

"Okay, I won't kiss you anymore. Then wipe it yourself, or you'll catch a cold!"

**
The weather was getting colder and colder. As Christmas was approaching, it suddenly snowed heavily and lasted for two days and two nights.

All the roads in the city were closed for half a day because of the snow. This had never happened before.

Because of the heavy snow, the monthly exam originally scheduled for the end of the month was postponed to after the New Year's Day holiday.

These days, the class has been participating in voluntary snow shoveling activities during breaks in the morning and evening.

Except for the senior year, students from other classes took turns to help clear the snow and roads outside the school.

Early in the morning, as Shen Chaoxi and Zhongli walked into the back door of Class 9, they saw a group of people gathered around their desks, talking.

"Hey! It's coming, it's coming!"

Seeing the two people come in, the classmates who knew them surrounded them, and the other students returned to their seats.

However, everyone's ears were perked up, for fear of missing any news.

Since the sports meet, Shen Chaoxi and Zhongli’s desks have almost never been empty, and they receive different gifts every day.

There are mostly snacks and small accessories, as well as handwritten "love letters". In short, there are all kinds of things.

Everyone has become accustomed to this, and it seems that this is how influential people should be.

Today's gift is different, it is a bouquet of red roses.

Fang Yuan held the flowers in his arms and counted them carefully, "11! What does that mean?"

"Of course, the red rose represents love, passionate love. 11 is naturally devoted to you and only loves you!" Xiao Xiaoyu said, and then she asked: "Guess who these roses are for?"

Xiao Xiaoyu was only interested in food in her life. Flowers could only be looked at but could not satisfy hunger, so she just joined in the fun.

"There is only one bouquet of roses, so it must be either Zhongli or Chao Xi?"

"Nonsense! Of course I know. Isn't this asking which one of them it's for?"

When the roses were delivered, they were sandwiched between two desks.

Shen Chaoxi pointed at Zhongli, then collected the things on the table and stuffed them into the storage box behind his seat.

The sixty-square storage box was filled with all the gifts she had received during this period, and she put them all in without even looking at them.

"Why me?" Zhongli was called out, looking innocent, "It's not like no one has given me flowers, but isn't this too vulgar?"

Zhongli hates being seen as vulgar the most.

"Oh! I didn't realize there is a card in the flower!" Fang Yuan discovered a new world and pinched out the pink and white heart-shaped card from the middle of the flower.

She took a look at it and then handed it to Shen Chaoxi.

The other people didn't see the content and were pushed away by Fang Yuan.

"Everyone, go study. We promised the day shift that we would reduce the gap between the average score of the monthly exam and that of Class 8 by another five points. How can we achieve our goal if we don't study?"

Fang Yuan asked after everyone had left.

"Who is Gao Fan? Is he the athlete in the first year of high school? It is said that his legs are two meters long and he looks quite handsome!"

"Oh my god! The little freshmen are chasing our tide!" Xiao Xiaoyu came closer.

Shen Chaoxi had originally not intended to pay attention to this matter, but when she heard the other party's name, she looked at the card.

See it written above:

Let's meet at the west courtyard of the administration building at noon. If you don't come, you'll be waiting for me! Gao Fan. Shen Chaoxi frowned. Since the sports meeting, this Gao Fan has written to her and sent her gifts almost every few days. He doesn't know how to keep a low profile and always leaves his name.

Is this an appointment with her?
West courtyard of the administrative building?
Shen Chaoxi usually wouldn't pay attention to such things. After Xiao Xiaoyu and Fang Yuan asked her, seeing that she didn't reply, they talked for a while and then the others went back to their seats to study.

This month, the day shift set a test score line for everyone, and parents would be called in if they failed to meet the line.

I have to say, the day shift is pretty cruel!
In the first math class, Shen Chaoxi was a little distracted while reviewing functions.

One reason was because of the card asking her to meet him, and the other was because of the three words "Administrative Building" written on the card.

The man on the third floor of the administrative building disappeared for more than a month.

Zhongli said that he was going abroad. This was the first time that he, as the future successor of Lianzhong, led a team abroad alone to discuss business.

When he sent me home that night, he was called away by a phone call. Before leaving, he said he would come back to talk to me.

What to talk about?
Want to talk about why you kissed her?
After lunch, after much deliberation, Shen Chaoxi went to the west courtyard of the administrative building.

Over there was a separate grove of thickets, thick with trees and almost deserted.

When Shen Chaoxi walked over, Gao Fan had been waiting for a long time.

The weather was cold and he was wearing a black down jacket, stamping his feet in the cold.

"Shen...Chaoxi," Gao Fan hesitated for a moment and called her name when he didn't know what to call her.

He was admitted to No. 1 Middle School as a sports student and spent a year in a special training camp. He is seventeen years old this year and is older than his classmates in the first year of high school.

"Hello, do you have something to talk to me about?" Shen Chaoxi asked in a calm tone, holding a black plastic bag in her hand.

She handed the plastic bag to the older boy in front of her.

Gao Fan was a little flattered, and when he saw what was in the black bag, his face turned pale.

Of course he was familiar with these things, as they were all gifts from him to the other party, even the rose that he had mustered up the courage to buy was among them.

Because it was placed together with other things, there were traces of friction on the delicate petals, which was a pity to see.

Gao Fan took out the flower and carefully smoothed off the crumbs on it.

"I don't mean anything else. I almost tripped you during our last long-distance run, and I felt bad about it, so..."

"You've already apologized that day, and your grades have been invalidated. There's no reason for you to give me things over and over again." Shen Chaoxi ruthlessly exposed his little thoughts.

Gao Fan didn't expect the other party to be so direct, he gritted his teeth.

"Yes, I have selfish motives! Shen Chaoxi, you are so smart, you must have figured it out. I like you!"

Once you make up your mind, it won't be hard to speak your mind.

Shen Chaoxi gave the other person a cold look and exhaled a puff of white mist.

"You are in a premature love relationship!"

"Ah? No way?" Gao Fan felt that he couldn't keep up with the other person's train of thought. "Puppy love is in junior high school, and I'm almost an adult!"

Shen Chaoxi twitched the corner of his mouth because of her teasing, but his eyes were still cold.

"Love without the intention of getting married is puppy love!"

Gao Fan: ...

Some of it is incomprehensible!
In fact, Shen Chaoxi wanted to say that he was being a hooligan, but this word didn't seem to be suitable for the big boy in front of him.

Better suited to someone else!

"I'm going back to the classroom. Don't send me anything anymore. I've made it clear to you!" Shen Chaoxi was about to turn around.

Looking at the cold eyes of the girl opposite him and listening to her calm rejection, Gao Fan's courage, which he had just mustered, was already more than half gone.

He took a few steps forward, walked around Shen Chaoxi and stood in front of her.

"I understand what you mean. I won't bother you anymore. I've already bought the flowers. It would be a shame to throw them away. Just consider it as a gift of apology as a favor to you last time."

On the third administrative floor, a window was pushed open by a cold white hand.
