Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes

Chapter 161: A Wish Come True


Speaking without reason about these things, Shen Han couldn't help but frown.

How Qiu Shuyin came to Tianyi Academy, acquainted with the students of Mountain Sea Academy, what does it have to do with me?

"Classmate Qiu, if you have something to say, just say it directly, no need to beat around the bush."

Upon hearing Shen Han's words, Qiu Shuyin did not hesitate.

"I actually came to see you today to introduce a fairy to you.

Fu Meng'Er from Mountain Sea Academy, Fu Family's Fu Meng'Er~

Dream'Er has been a long-time friend of mine. If I didn't think you were quite good-looking and decent in character, I wouldn't bother to bring her to meet you.

Of course, I'm not letting you meet Dream'Er for free; you need to agree to one condition of mine..."

Before Qiu Shuyin could finish, Shen Han interrupted her with a frown.

"No need for Classmate Qiu to worry, Shen Han has no intention of meeting this Fairy Fu, don't trouble yourself."

Shen Han refused with a frown, yet Qiu Shuyin continued talking incessantly, despite the refusal.

"You don't have to refuse so quickly; the condition I propose won't cost you much money.

Dream'Er's family is also wealthy. If you connect with Dream'Er, your life will become much easier in the future."

After a brief pause, Qiu Shuyin continued.

"You must have heard the recent rumors, right, about you and Su Jinyu.

To tell you the truth, I had someone fabricate these rumors and spread them out~

I came to see you today hoping you would help me create some momentum, so that these rumors spread even wider.

Introducing Dream'Er to you is your reward.

Of course, Dream'Er will not open her heart to you just because you help me; it's merely giving you an opportunity.

Rest assured, as long as you care for her and look after her more, there's a good chance you two can be together.

Additionally, Dream'Er likes the peach crisps and pastries from Xiangyun Pavilion. You can bring two boxes when you first meet her~"

Qiu Shuyin spoke eloquently in front of Shen Han, as if she genuinely believed she was helping Shen Han.

Even a random Fu Meng'Er would require him to bring pastries and peach crisps to win her favor...

Was his mind malfunctioning?

Shen Han's face already bore a hint of coldness, as these rumors were already bothering him.

Yet Qiu Shuyin still wanted him to help her build momentum.

What on earth was she thinking?

"Spreading baseless rumors, why would Classmate Qiu think I would help you at all?

The fact that I haven't sharply reprimanded you is already an exercise of restraint."

Shen Han looked sullenly at Qiu Shuyin before him.

Yet this Qiu Shuyin still seemed oblivious to anything wrong.

"Why scold or rebuke me...

Being able to spread some rumors about you and Su Jinyu, one would think you should be eager for such a thing.

Can you honestly say you don't have any thoughts about her?"

These words almost made Shen Han laugh in anger.

He clearly felt more dislike towards Su Jinyu, but in Qiu Shuyin's words, he became a fool mindlessly chasing after her.

Shen Han chuckled softly, shaking his head, "If according to Classmate Qiu's logic, my heart is set on Su Jinyu.

Then why are you introducing Fu Meng'Er to me, really?"

Seeming a bit tired from standing, Qiu Shuyin took two steps to the right, dusted off a spot, and sat down on a stone bench.

"Even with a bronze mirror in hand, many people cannot see themselves clearly.

From Yun'an City to the Capital City, Shen Han, you have exhausted all your efforts; this is almost the peak you can reach.

The gap between you and your elder brother is too vast.

Su Jinyu, being appreciated by Shen Ye and bearing the title of a prodigy, even if she doesn't become partners with Shen Ye in the future, she would never set her eyes on you.

A girl like Dream'Er is already the best you can aspire to."

After a brief pause, Qiu Shuyin continued, speaking as if she was genuinely Shen Han's sister-in-law admonishing him.

"Not all things in this world can be achieved with ambition alone.

Some things, even if you exhaust your entire life, you won't obtain.

But to your elder brother Shen Ye, he might achieve it with just a thought, a slight move of his finger.

The gap between people can sometimes be greater than the gap between human and beast."

Speaking, Qiu Shuyin's expression was serious.

As if she was imparting some profound life wisdom.

Spring had already arrived, a breeze swept by, carrying a hint of floral fragrance.

"Classmate Qiu's words have some truth, but after being rejected by your cousin, haven't you also been pondering various schemes?

This matter, it seems more like something unachievable despite ambition~"

Shen Han chuckled, directly using Qiu Shuyin's own words to retort her.

Qiu Shuyin was left speechless for a moment.

After a while, she pursed her lips, shifting the focus away from herself.

She continued talking about Shen Han.

"You possess some talent, last month's end examination, you outperformed Dugu Tian, showing some prowess.

But truly, it doesn't count for much.

That Dugu Tian, with disrupted meridians, is fortunate if he can use even half his strength.

In Mountain Sea Academy, there are many who surpass him."

After belittling Shen Han a bit, Qiu Shuyin once again started praising Fu Meng'Er.

"You once had a marriage arrangement with that prodigy Su Jinyu.

But this engagement was just an accident; you and she are from two different worlds. I suppose she never even looked at you directly.

You cannot use Su Jinyu as the standard for seeking a partner.

Dream'Er's family background, talent, and strength are the best choices for you.

If you help me make these rumors more widespread, I will do my best to win Dream'Er over for you."

Qiu Shuyin said a whole lot.

In essence, there was only one meaning in her words; she wanted Shen Han to help spread the rumors.

"By spreading these rumors, does Classmate Qiu think that my brother Shen Ye will favor you?"

"Whether he will favor me, I do not know.

But being able to displease Su Jinyu, to agitate her, makes it worth it."

Hearing this, Shen Han couldn't help but chuckle lightly.

The discord between women could lead to such underhanded tricks.

"Sorry, I really don't want to get involved in the affairs between the three of you.

As for Su Jinyu, I also have no interest in her, nor do I wish to meet that Fairy Fu.

So please, Classmate Qiu, refrain from fabricating more rumors.

I will also do my best to dispel them."

With that said, Shen Han, without waiting for her to say anything more, turned and headed towards Mr. Zhong Nan's yard.

Watching Shen Han's departing figure, Qiu Shuyin shook her head somewhat helplessly.

She didn't know how many good words she had put in front of Fu Meng'Er to make her willing to meet Shen Han.

Yet Shen Han was even more self-conceited than she had imagined.

He truly regarded himself like Shen Ye, not looking down upon himself at all.

Seeing Shen Han ignoring her advice, Qiu Shuyin pondered for a moment.

Perhaps, she could look for Shen Han's tutor to guide him a bit.

Being able to be associated with a girl like Fu Meng'Er was truly quite good.

In essence, it was definitely Shen Han reaching beyond his grasp.
