Revenge Sevenfold

Hui Yin's seat mate had always weirded her out.

During their first class in the morning, he was asleep.

On their last class in the afternoon, he was asleep.

If he was that fond of sleeping, why did he even bother to get out of his mother's womb?

Hui Yin felt like this was one of her life's most pressing questions.

She never had many friends at school. She couldn't relate to any of the 'normal' girl talks because aside from going to school, Hui Yin spent most of her time working part-time jobs to be able to afford the tuition fee. Her father had died in an accident at work, and her mother followed soon after because of sickness.

Her brother used to be the closest person to her and the one who supported her during financial troubles, but when Hui Yin enrolled for her freshman year at college, he fell in with a bad crowd and abruptly left her. Even now, Hui Yin had no idea what happened to him. Maybe he had already died.

And as for male friends...male friends were no good at all. They would start by being overly nice to her, but would suddenly become jealous when she gets close to another man. By the time she became a sophomore, Hui Yin had long realized that it wasn't 'friendship' they wanted. So she stopped befriending them, and the jealousy of the other girls also slightly lessened.

Hui Yin only had a few close friends at school. Luo Lan, a few female colleagues...and Jiang Xu.

She never really knew when they started becoming friends.

Maybe it was when she joked to an annoying suitor that she had an 'unrequited love' for him.

Or maybe it was because he lent her a pencil when she forgot to bring one during an exam.

Or when she told him that she didn't like his hair...or the time he started calling her 'Wifey' as a joke...or when she got the trust of his twin brothers during their first meeting. Hui Yin couldn't really pinpoint the time they became close enough to treat each other as a 'best friend'.

Maybe Hui Yin should get mad at Jiang Xu for kissing her. But she couldn't.

Because she knew in her heart that Jiang Xu wasn't like those boys, who at the moment she turns them down, would never speak to her again despite being 'friends'.

So when they both pulled away at the same time and Jiang Xu was looking at her like he had just done a crime punishable by death, Hui Yin simply laughed.

"Are you going to take responsibility for that?"

Jiang Xu's eyes widened. "What?"

Hui Yin cuffed him under the chin. Her mouth turned up slightly at the corners as she taunted, "Oh? You're not going to take responsibility? How insolent for a man like you to take advantage of a maiden and not properly care for her."

Jiang Xu grabbed her hand. "Wifey, do you really mean that?"

Hui Yin folded her arms. "Do I mean what? I was asking you if you were going to take responsibility..."

She didn't manage to finish speaking when Jiang Xu jumped up and hugged her. Surprised, Hui Yin fell back on the checkered blanket.

"Jiang Xu!"

She wrinkled her nose in distaste, feeling flustered. She had already noticed that some people were looking at them when they kissed earlier, and Jiang Xu had the nerve to do another dramatic public display of affection.

But Jiang Xu was too happy to care. He looked at the girl with a disapproving expression beneath him, and his heart couldn't help but thrum with delight. How many times had he imagined this? Every time he did, it was always cold rejection that met his attempts in his mind. He had seen his Wifey reject without hesitation the countless boys that confessed to her, and Jiang Xu believed it would be the same ending for him.

So he patiently waited, because more than his desire of wanting her to be his real Wifey, was the desire of wanting to be always with her.

But she actually said that she wanted him to 'take responsibility'! Wasn't it the same as telling him that she was willing to date him?

Hui Yin stared at the face that resembled a lotus seed paste above her and pushed him away.

She had mixed feelings about this sudden development. She felt surprised that Jiang Xu actually felt this way about her, happy that he did, and sad because everything was soon going to be reset.

Hui Yin knew Jiang Xu. He was definitely going to treat her well, and in her heart, something subtle had also changed. As to whether this feeling was love or not...she sighed. Only time would tell.

And Hui Yin didn't have much time.

When they finally fixed themselves and sat up, Jiang Xu earnestly looked at her.

"Wifey, are you going to be my girlfriend now?"

Hui Yin: "..."

Well, that was fast.
