Chapter 170 Withdraw from Class Monitor Election, I'll Be Your Girlfriend
Su Luming pursed his lips and said decisively, "I...I'm afraid you'll bully me, so I'm calling the ancestral spirit to come and give me some courage."
"..." Ye Fan almost laughed out of anger.
How could I possibly bully you? In broad daylight, in front of everyone, how could I possibly bully you?
"Alright, then tell me quickly."
Seeing Ye Fan's lazy demeanor, Su Luming frowned slightly, took a deep breath, and finally got to the point, her voice clear and serious: "Ye Fan, I hope you will withdraw from the class monitor election."
Ye Fan's expression remained unchanged, as calm as a deep pool of water.
This was entirely expected.
He was simply curious about what her "bargaining chips" were.
Su Luming stared intently at Ye Fan's face, trying to catch a glimpse of his emotions—surprise? anger? or hesitation? But he found nothing.
Originally, she thought that if the other party agreed, everything would be fine, and she would owe him a favor.
If she disagrees, she has other options, and using her beauty as a weapon would be perfect.
But now, Ye Fan remained expressionless, as if he had punched a piece of cotton.
This feeling of not being able to figure out the other person's true strength made her very uncomfortable, and her original confidence began to waver.
Just as she felt a chill run down her spine under Ye Fan's calm gaze, he finally spoke, his voice flat and even: "What's the reason?"
Su Luming was overjoyed, feeling that there was hope! The fact that the other party was willing to ask for a reason meant that they were considering it!
She immediately straightened her back, her tone carrying a sense of mission to "serve the class": "Because I feel I'm more enthusiastic and more willing to dedicate my time and energy to the class. And you..."
She paused, her gaze sweeping over Ye Fan's casual posture: "You seem too... cynical."
The implication is that Ye Fan was just playing around as class monitor and lacked a sense of responsibility.
Ye Fan didn't speak, but simply raised his chin slightly, signaling her to continue.
Su Luming felt uneasy because of his "I'm watching your performance" attitude, feeling that his inner thoughts had been seen through.
She gritted her teeth and decided to reveal her true colors: "There's another...personal reason. I have to become the class monitor."
"Pfft—" Ye Fan finally couldn't help but laugh. This was the truth! All that high-sounding rhetoric before was just embellishment.
He doesn't look down on this kind of pursuit; everyone has their own aspirations.
He knew exactly what Su Luming wanted: a prestigious university resume to pave the way for a future career in the system. This in itself was perfectly understandable.
That's how it is from a human nature perspective.
However, understanding does not mean backing down.
Su Luming has his own goals, and so does Ye Fan.
This class monitor was an indispensable part of his experience of a complete college life.
Ye Fan nodded and said calmly, "You finally revealed your personal reasons. You're quite honest... However, Su, I also have personal reasons. I have to be the class monitor."
"What personal reasons?" Su Luming pressed, his brows furrowed.
Ye Fan leaned forward slightly, looking into her eyes, a faint smile playing on his lips, and said casually, "Of course, it's for... my complete youth."
To Su Luming, these words sounded just as perfunctory as her earlier "enthusiastic service theory."
But Ye Fan was telling the truth, and that was precisely his main purpose. If it were for something else, he wouldn't have needed to do it at all.
Seeing that Ye Fan was unmoved by reason, Su Luming knew that he couldn't reason with him.
She sighed, as if making a firm decision, her eyes sharpening, and said clearly, word by word, "It seems we're destined to compete... but I admit, my chances of winning are slim. So, Ye Fan, what will it take for you to give up the class monitor position?"
Ye Fan smiled and slowly shook his head. His silent refusal was more resolute than any words.
Su Luming bit her lower lip tightly with her pearly teeth, and a thin blush rose on her fair cheeks, as if she were having a fierce internal struggle.
Finally, as if she had made a desperate decision, she suddenly raised her head, looked directly into Ye Fan's eyes, and said in a voice that trembled almost imperceptibly but was unusually clear: "What if... what if I agree to be your girlfriend? As long as you withdraw from the election!"
Beauty plan!
Ye Fan was genuinely taken aback. Good heavens! This girl is direct and ruthless! She's really willing to go to any lengths for her goal!
His gaze, almost unconsciously, slid down from Su Luming's refined yet resolute face. The graceful lines of her swan-like neck extended downwards... Holy crap! She's got a real figure! His gaze continued downwards, to her slender waist, her long, straight legs...
A true beauty, Su Luming's overall looks are in no way inferior to Pei Yi'an and Tang Yanning.
If these conditions were offered to Xu Bin and his ilk, they would be willing to give up anything, not just a class monitor position, but even their entire fortune.
However... Ye Fan's mind raced. He decided to wait and see what the best bidder would be.
A playful smile appeared on his face as he shook his head, his tone carrying a hint of "Do you think I'm stupid?" "Be my girlfriend? Too far-fetched. Su, what if you get class monitor tomorrow and then dump me? Wouldn't I be left with nothing but my underwear?"
Upon hearing this, Su Luming felt a glimmer of hope! He was negotiating! It meant there was room for negotiation!
She immediately assured him, her cheeks flushing even more: "Don't worry! I mean what I say! Being your girlfriend has a time limit; I won't break up with you right away! I'm not the kind of person who'd kick you away after using you!"
"Oh?" Ye Fan raised an eyebrow, leaning forward slightly, adopting a business-like posture. "Then... what's the timeframe?"
Su Luming tentatively asked, his voice even lower, "One...one semester?"
Ye Fan didn't speak, but the smile on his lips deepened, and he gently shook his head.
Too short; it lacks sincerity.
Su Luming's heart pounded even faster, his face burning, and he practically forced out two words through clenched teeth: "Then one year?"
Ye Fan leaned back in his chair, crossed his arms, and looked at her with a leisurely air, saying nothing more.
The ancestral spirit, who stood to the side like a wooden statue, had its mouth agape wide enough to fit an egg!
She went from being indifferent at first to being extremely shocked because the negotiation between the two people in front of her had changed so quickly that it was unbelievable to her. What was even more incredible was that such a thing could be traded in this way? It left her speechless.
They were talking about competing for class monitor, all very tense, but the next moment... they were talking about boyfriends and girlfriends??
This is so blatant...
She regretted coming here because she overheard a shady secret and got involved in this kind of deal. She felt like she would be implicated, like she had a thorn in her side, like she was doing something wrong and was afraid of being caught by the police.
Su Luming was burning with anxiety under Ye Fan's silent scrutiny. His face flushed, and he finally raised his voice, his tone desperate and resigned: "Yes or no! Ye Fan, give me a straight answer!"
