At this moment, Wen Zhendong decided to forgo his dignity and charged forward, shouting, "Stop pretending to be Gu Qianqian’s boyfriend! Do you think you’re amazing? You beat me up like this and want to just walk away? I’m telling you, no way!"

Luo Fan was somewhat amused by this, "What, you want me to take responsibility?"

"If you tell me you’re not Qianqian’s boyfriend, I will let you go today."

Wen Zhendong was speaking recklessly, his handsome fair face turning bright red.

Actually, Wen Zhendong is a year younger than Gu Qianqian. He started school early and is now a first-year university student. Technically speaking, he’s not even eighteen yet, just a teenager going through a rebellious phase.

Looking at Wen Zhendong like this, Luo Fan really didn’t want to argue with him; that would be embarrassing.

At this moment, students passing by started looking their way.

If this were a crowded place, a big group would have gathered.

Standing in front of Wen Zhendong, Luo Fan, who was taller, bowed slightly, his gaze oppressive, "Student Wen Zhendong, I am formally telling you today that I am Gu Qianqian’s boyfriend. So, as her boyfriend, I warn you once again to stay away from Qianqian from now on. Don’t entertain inappropriate thoughts. Focus on your studies and become a useful person to society. Don’t even think about retaliation, or you won’t be able to handle the consequences!"

His voice carried a threat as he finished speaking.

"You..." Wen Zhendong, under a pressure he’d never experienced before, became intimidated, and the rest of his words got stuck in his throat.

Tian Hai noticed Wen Zhendong still had the energy to throw a fit and question someone, realizing Gu Qianqian’s boyfriend hadn’t gone all out—he just taught him a lesson. It was best to stop while ahead; this person obviously wasn’t ordinary. If you have reason, fine; if not, picking a fight would only lead to trouble.

Tian Hai, who was continuously complaining inwardly, stepped forward to pull the eager Wen Zhendong back, saying helplessly, "Let’s go. Soon, there’ll be more people, and if you’re reported to the educational center, you’d be done for..."

Just then, two middle-aged people walked towards Luo Fan and Gu Qianqian from behind. The man was elegant, and the woman gentle, their gaze shifting between Luo Fan and Gu Qianqian.

Luo Fan felt something amiss, turned around, and was startled, "Uncle, Aunt, why are you here?"

Gu Qianqian spoke together with Luo Fan, "Dad, Mom, why are you here?"

Then somewhat guiltily looked at them, unsure if they heard what Luo Fan just said.

Seeing Lian Yuhong’s eyeing disbelief between her and Brother Luo Fan, she knew they definitely heard it.

Feeling uncertain about what to do, Gu Tianfeng looked at the young students in front, frowning, and asked Luo Fan, "Luo Fan, what’s going on?"

Luo Fan did not hesitate, stating frankly, "Uncle, someone was pestering Qianqian and spoke obscenities. I beat him up to teach him a lesson."

"Who is this person?" Gu Tianfeng got angry. How dare someone insult his daughter; they need a beating.

Gu Qianqian pointed at Wen Zhendong, "Dad, it’s him, his name is Wen Zhendong."

Then she added, "He’s learned his lesson, let’s let him go today."

Gu Tianfeng looked at the young man before him, and although he didn’t see any external injuries, he knew with Luo Fan’s strength, the damage must be internal, with sure pains otherwise he wouldn’t look like this.

Being a teacher, he can’t stand students like this, so he sternly reprimanded Wen Zhendong.

The four then didn’t linger, exchanged few words quietly, and left together.

Teacher Gu’s lengthy reprimand was quite sharp, leaving several young male students red-faced. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

As for Wen Zhendong, "..."

Was already unable to express his feelings with words, just dot dot dot.

This time Tian Hai was unreserved, pulling Wen Zhendong away.

Wen Zhendong still tried one last struggle, holding his ground, "I’m not leaving, I’m not leaving..."

"How can you get examined at the medical office if you don’t leave? What if the injury is serious?"

"What can a medical office find? I want to go to the First Hospital, I’m going to find my grandpa..."

"Then what are you waiting for, let’s go." Tian Hai continued pulling Wen Zhendong while chattering, "If you keep delaying like this, the wounds will heal, and what would you be checking for then..."

"Tian Hai, are you my friend or not?"

"Yes, yes, yes, now let’s go, I won’t speak anymore, alright?"

Other students, "..."

Meanwhile, Gu Qianqian cradled her books at the bottom of the dormitory building, muttering, "I’ll deliver the books first, and I’ll be right back down."

Then her bright, spirited eyes quickly glanced at Luo Fan, who gently nodded to her, indicating she should not worry, he had everything handled.

Gu Qianqian bit her lip, then swiftly glanced at her calm-looking parents, knowing her mother was interested in Chang Qing, and wondering if she’d be angry hearing today’s news.

But, even if she’s angry, it’s too late now.

She already took the initiative to admit it.

Lian Yuhong, though not highly educated, was very sharp, instantly seeing her daughter’s thoughts, urged unsympathetically, "Hurry up, we’re all waiting for you."

Gu Qianqian had no choice but to quickly run towards the dormitory.

Lian Yuhong’s expression was complex as she looked at Luo Fan, suddenly recalling various past events, and realizing that Luo Fan perhaps had long been set on her youngest daughter.

Gu Tianfeng paused a moment, still softly asked, "Xiao Fan, what’s really going on?"

Luo Fan was about to explain when Lian Yuhong glanced at the students passing by, hastily interrupted, "We’ll talk at home."

Since it concerned her daughter’s lifelong event, this wasn’t the right place to discuss.

So, more than an hour later, in the main hall of Gu Garden, in front of several elders, Luo Fan formally proposed a relationship with Qianqian aimed at marriage.

If they agreed, he’d immediately have his grandfather come to formally propose.

Watching the shy Gu Qianqian and then the handsome, upright Luo Fan, although Lian Yuhong hesitated about her daughter being claimed so early, in her heart she approved.

She’d always been very satisfied with Luo Fan and had a great impression of him; before she didn’t think of him in this way, so she hadn’t given it much thought, considering him only as a younger generation. Now that he was to become her son-in-law, she found nothing but satisfaction.

Of course, being satisfied doesn’t mean voicing it, with her husband and grandparents present in the room.

She had to listen to others’ opinions.

The Old Patriarch was the first to speak up, expressing his contentment with Luo Fan, as did Lady Yu. Previously, Qianqian was young; now that she’s in college, she can have a boyfriend. Upon finding the right person, she must seize the opportunity, or losing it would be a great pity.
