Chapter 39: Forced Love

  Thousands of fire-red roses are neatly piled up into a giant heart shape at the entrance of Soochow University.

  Outside the Rose Hotel, hundreds of university students gathered and made a racket.

  Xia Lin pulled Song Jian out of Chevrolet.

  "Come on, uncle, there's more excitement to see. Last week, someone in our school, for his girlfriend, found over 900 people and suddenly released 999 sky lanterns at night. Oh my, you don't know how touching it was," Xia Lin pulled Song Jian's arm, running past him while enviously telling him about it.

  Song Jian reluctantly followed Xia Lin into the crowd, he really didn't think romance was that moving.

  "Agree with him! Agree with him!" The crowd around them shouted.

  Xia Lin tiptoed, looking inside, the boy in front was a bit tall, this little girl got impatient, directly pushed open the crowd, and pulled Song Jian to the innermost layer of the crowd.

  Song Jian exclaimed in surprise, and saw that the person inside the rose circle was actually Zhou Tong.

  At this moment, Zhou Tong had a small bag slung over her shoulder, with a bright red face. In front of her, a man was kneeling on one knee, who was Li Jian. Around the two people, there were twenty robust students wearing Taekwondo uniforms standing, and outside, there were fragrant roses arranged in a large heart shape.

  "Both hands holding a large bouquet of lilies, he said loudly: 'It's all my fault, Tongtong, please forgive me. In these days when you didn't talk to me, I couldn't eat or sleep well, turning over and over in bed. I know I hurt your heart, sorry Tongtong, just give me one more chance, one more chance to make it up to you, take care of you, love you, please forgive me.'"

  The crowd around him booed again.

  "Wooo... it's so touching. If my boyfriend could be half as good as him, I wouldn't have broken up with him back then." A girl whispered, sobbing quietly.

  "Yes, it would be great if I could be Li Jian's girlfriend," another girl said with stars in her eyes, staring at Li Jian.

  The boys around were booing, while the girls were moved by Li Jian's words and all supported him, asking Zhou Tong to forgive Li Jian, although they didn't know what mistake Li Jian had made.

  "Li Jian! I'm telling you again, stop messing around, we're done with each other!"

  Zhou Tong furrowed her brow and spoke in a cold tone, saying that as she walked over to one side.

  "Think thrice, auntie!"

  A man wearing a taekwondo uniform bowed and stood upright in front of Zhou Tong, blocking his way.

  "Get out of the way!" Zhou Tong picked up the bag on his arm, covered his hand, and went to push that man, but the man wearing Taekwondo uniform didn't budge.

  Zhou Tong changed direction again and went to push another man.

  The man also said loudly: "Please forgive Jian Ge, auntie."

  It was just a polite remark, but none of the twenty boys wearing Taekwondo uniforms in this circle made Zhou Tong leave.

  Xia Lin was also moved to tears, but seeing this situation, Xia Lin pouted and said: "It can't be, can it? If the pursuit of love is unsuccessful, one's personal freedom shouldn't be restricted."

  Song Jian furrowed his brow, gently pushed Xia Lin aside, and was about to walk in. No matter what, Zhou Tong was still his friend, and Song Jian didn't want to see him being humiliated in public.

  "Get out!"

  A loud shout rose from the crowd, a young man with a goatee pushed through the throng, stretched out his hand and sent one of the Taekwondo-clad men tumbling to the ground.

  "Li Jian, can't you just stop being so disgusting? Zhou Tong wants to agree, just let him agree. What's with all these people, do you want to resort to violence?" The boy stood beside Zhou Tong, his face stern and serious, sporting a goatee that didn't quite match his student status.

  "Shi Kaiwei, scram! This has nothing to do with you. You think you can be a guardian and pursue Zhou Tong? Don't you dare look in the mirror and see if you're worthy!" Li Jian stood up, looking down on Shi Kaiwei with disdain. He was half a head taller than Shi Kaiwei and much more handsome, making his words sound reasonable and confident.

  Zhou Tong grabbed Shi Kaiwei and glared at Li Jian, saying coldly: "Li Jian, you're really disgusting. Shi Kaiwei, let's go out, don't bother with this kind of person."

  Shi Kaiwei was about to get angry, but at this moment, Zhou Tong grabbed his arm, causing the bearded boy's heart rate to jump directly to 120 beats per minute. He quickly nodded, "Let's go, let's go, I'll take you out."

  Shi Kaiwei was not tall, but he was sturdy and had been practicing martial arts since childhood. He was the vice president of the National Martial Arts Association at Soochow University. Usually three or five people were no match for Shi Kaiwei.

  "What's wrong? Shi Kaiwei, doesn't he take our Taekwondo Association seriously? Let me teach him a lesson!" A lean young man standing beside Li Jian sneered.

  Zhou Tong let out a sharp cry of fright.

  Shi Kawei didn't flinch, seeing two boys in taekwondo uniforms approaching him. He suddenly threw a punch and knocked one of the boys to the ground, then kicked the other boy in the chest with a flying kick.

  One punch and one kick sent two tall boys tumbling down, which made others feel a bit uneasy.

  "Good! Good work!"

  The boys around were boiling with excitement, they originally thought that the people in the National Arts Association would only be good at slow and gentle Tai Chi, but unexpectedly, Shi Kaiwei had some real kung fu skills.

  The security guards in the school had obviously received instructions in advance, and at this moment, five security guards were holding rubber sticks and watching from a distance.

  Shi Kaiwei raised an eyebrow, letting out a disdainful snort as he said, "Little pretty boy, do you have the guts to go one-on-one? If not, then take back your trashy roses and get back on your basketball court."

  After finishing speaking, Shi Kaiwei waved his hand and pushed away another Taekwondo-clad boy who was blocking the way, ready to leave.

  "Hey, it's been a long time! Come on, come on, I was just about to spar with you and see if the useless people in your national martial arts association have made any progress." The thin, bespectacled young man who had given the orders earlier walked out, his hair curled up naturally, with a long face and an eagle nose, looking quite authoritative.

  "Yan Kuan! What do you mean? You clearly know that Zhou Tong doesn't like Li Jian, yet you're helping Li Jian with this kind of dirty business?" Shi Kaiwei turned around, looking at the self-righteous man, Yan Kuan.

  Yan Kuan sneered, "Vulgar? I don't think so. This scene is quite romantic. Alright, enough nonsense, today I'll see what you've eaten to dare challenge the Taekwondo Association!"

  As he spoke, Yan Kuan suddenly sprinted forward and kicked his legs "whoosh" towards Shi Kaiwei.

  Shi Kaiwei first knocked open Zhou Tong, then he stretched out his fist and a burst of punches hit Yan Kuan.

  This Yan Kuan really has some skills.

  Yan Kuan was once the third place winner of the Taekwondo competition in Gusu City, and he is also a well-known figure at Gusu University. When he announced that he would be starting a Taekwondo club at Gusu University, over a hundred students applied to join within just one afternoon.

  Yan Kuan and Li Jian's friendship was not very deep, Li Jian was a basketball star, while Yan Kuan practiced taekwondo and often participated in various taekwondo competitions with his teammates and coaches.

  If there is an intersection between Yan Kuan and Li Jian, it would be that both of them are pursuers of Zhou Tong.

  Yan Kuan's appearance is a bit off, and he really can't get Zhou Tong. Seeing Zhou Tong, this beautiful woman, coming back and forth every day, Yan Kuan's heart itches unbearably, so he encouraged Li Jian to pursue Zhou Tong again today. Of course, Yan Kuan has his own plan, he made an agreement with Li Jian that if Li Jian succeeds in getting Zhou Tong again and sleeps with her, then he must let Yan Kuan have a share of the spoils.

  Yes, the so-called "sharing a cup of soup" is a very ordinary thing among rich second-generation university students. For example, when opening a room, they bring cameras and exchange videos afterwards. Or they exchange girlfriends, even if their own girlfriend is unwilling, as long as they get drunk, it's still easy to take advantage of them.

  Yan Kuan Zheng was thinking of this idea, thinking that after Li Jian got on top of Zhou Tong, he would find an opportunity to get Zhou Tong drunk and let him play a few times.

  Needless to say, Yan Kuan's scissors-like legs kicked towards Shi Kaiwei in an instant.

  Shi Kaiwei's fist had not yet landed on Yan Kuan's leg, when Yan Kuan's foot was already "thud" and kicked Shi Kaiwei in the chest. Shi Kaiwei was not Yan Kuan's opponent, but the difference was not much, it was just that earlier when he started his move, Shi Kaiwei took care of Zhou Tong, first pushing Zhou Tong away, then exerting force, this delay caused Shi Kaiwei to be slower than Yan Kuan by a beat.

  Taekwondo emphasizes leg strength, and Yan Kuan has been practicing Taekwondo since he was young, so his legs are very strong. With this one kick, Shi Kaiwei immediately retreated five steps with a "thud", and it seemed like he would be tripped by the piles of roses.

  Yan Kuan's momentum was unstoppable, and he leapt into the air once more, kicking towards Shi Kaiwei.

  The students around all cried out "ah", and the security guards in the distance also hurried to make a phone call, fearing that the situation would get out of hand.

  Song Jian couldn't take it anymore, he took a big step forward, grabbed Shi Kaiwei with both hands and threw him out of the rose garden, at the same time lifting his foot and giving him a kick.

  With a "bang", Song Jian's speed was very fast, and this kick directly kicked on Yan Kuan's lower abdomen.

  With a "bang", Yan Kuan was kicked to the ground by Song Jian.

  "What's going on?"

  "So fast."

  "Who's this person again?"

  The people around looked at Song Jian, and comments flew about.

  Song Jian!

  Zhou Tong, who had been trembling with fear, saw Song Jian suddenly appear and immediately ran over to him, embracing him tightly.

  Zhou Tong's height was almost the same as Song Jian's. As they hugged, their lips were almost touching Song Jian's mouth.

  Xia Lin in the crowd saw this scene, angrily pouting her mouth, whispering complaints, "That's my driver! Mine!"

  Wow!

  The people around saw Zhou Tong actually gave a bear hug to a man, and they were all shocked. Li Jian and Shi Kaiwei, the two suitors, were also stunned.

  "Damn it, you're asking for trouble!"

  Yan Kuan, who was on the ground, got up and was kicked by Song Jian in front of so many people. How could he bear it? At this moment, he didn't care about Zhou Tong's safety either. He let out a loud "ah" and made a flying side kick, straight at Song Jian's chest.

  Yan Kuan was a second-degree black belt in Taekwondo, and this kick would have made an ordinary person vomit blood on the spot.

  "Absolutely not! Yan Kuan, you're crazy!" Skye shouted loudly outside the rose bush. With this kick, Yan Kuan could be sentenced to prison, and Song Jian would have to lie in bed for at least three months.

  Song Jian slightly sneered, shifted his feet sideways, and simply lifted his right leg.

  Bang, another simple high kick.

  Kong Zhong's stern shout was cut short as he was kicked flying sideways, landing with a thud on the pile of roses.

  Song Jian rubbed his nose and muttered to himself in confusion: "The lower plate is light and floating, this kind of rotten move can also become a martial art? It's really unthinkable!"
