Shen Xin kept her gaze still as she asked, You really think Im very annoying?
Qiao Chens expression changed slightly as his hands tensed up.
Shen Xin quietly waited for his answer.
Mo Yesi and Qiao Mianmian turned over to look at him as well.
About a good ten seconds passed.
Qiao Chen took a deep breath and then calmly said, Yes. So, I hope you wont harass me in the future anymore. Shen Xin, you have a fianc now. Its not too good to be around other guys this way.
Shen Xins lips quivered, and she wanted to make things clear.
She wanted to say that she actually didnt have a fianc.
The person Shen Rou mentioned was not her fianc.

The parents of both families did have hopes of them marrying each other after theyd graduated from university, but that was it.
She didnt even agree to it herself.
But seeing how calm and composed Qiao Chen looked, with his brows slightly raised, she didnt see a need to explain anything anymore.
What was the point of saying so much to a person who didnt like her, and even found her a bother?
Would it make things any different for Qiao Chen, anyway?
Shen Xin felt a stab to her heart. It hurt so much.
Shed liked Qiao Chen for years.
When she saw him speak on stage as the class representative back when they were First Year students, it was practically love at first sight.
From then on, shed harassed him for three years.
In those three years, Qiao Chen had rejected her many times, and it wasnt the first time he said she was a bother.
But Shen Xin never thought that he truly detested her.
Because each time he said those words, there was never disgust or impatience in his tone or his eyes.
But this time was different
Shen Xin saw an expression that hurt her.
She could tell that Qiao Chen really didnt like her.
As much as she liked him, she had to leave herself with some dignity.
She had persevered over the years because shed believed that he would someday be moved by her sincerity. After all, even with three years of harassment, Qiao Chen had been so tolerant of her.
She really thought there was hope.
Until today
He was probably too tired of being pursued by her and didnt want to tolerate it anymore. Perhaps that was why he finally spilled his true feelings.
He already made it clear that he detested her.
What other reason had she to press on?
It was time these three years of harassment came to a close.
Shen Xin went pale the moment she made up her mind to give him up.

Tears immediately rolled down as she dealt with the heart-wrenching pain.
Shen Xin, you Qiao Chen furrowed his brows and felt even worse than before.
Qiao Chen, dont worry. I wont harass you again. Shen Xin smiled through her tears. Im sorry for bothering you for the three whole years and causing you so much trouble. I know Im rather annoying too, being unwilling to let you go despite knowing you dont like me.
But in the future, I really wont anymore.
Im really, really sorry. With that, she bowed in apology.
And for what just happened, Im truly sorry too. Ill apologize on my sisters behalf. She bowed once again.
Qiao Chen looked at her in shock as he stiffened.
Shen Xin seemed to have unloaded a huge burden. Without giving him a second glance, she turned around and trailed after Shen Rou.
Qiao Chen was rooted to the ground as he watched her leave.
The look in Shen Xins eyes when she said shed never harass him again seemed to show that shed really let it all go.
