Chapter 804: Rejection

Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation

After listening to Ye Lengans response, Murong Yumeng couldnt maintain her careful smile any longer. Junior Sister Ye, did you perhaps mishear what I said just now?

She couldnt believe her ears. Ye Lengan had actually refused her. How was that possible? She dared to claim that no student in the entire Capital University could resist such temptation.

I heard you loud and clear. Ye Lengans lips curled into a smile as she continued, Senior Sister Murong, werent you inviting me to join the Student Council? Since youve extended a formal invitation, I naturally have to formally decline.

With Ye Lengans answer confirmed, Murong Yumeng didnt furrow her brows. Junior Sister Ye, do you know how many people in the whole school want to join the Student Council? Being a part of it would add a splendid note to your resume.

Im aware, but Im not interested. Ye Lengan shrugged, indifferent. Besides, I have plenty of other things to do. I simply cant spare the time to juggle Student Council responsibilities.

Junior Sister Ye, the Student Councils tasks arent burdensome. Murong Yumengs brow relaxed as she continued to persuade her. Its definitely a great opportunity for you. You dont need to rush your decision. Take your time to think it over and give me your answer later!

Despite her efforts to control herself, disdain leaked onto Murong Yumengs face.

This Ye Lengan truly came from a sheltered background. She didnt even know how to seize such a golden opportunity. If it werent to get closer to Ye Lengan, she wouldnt have given her a chance! In this school, countless people wanted to join their Student Council and curry favor with her. Yet, Ye Lengan, in her ignorance, failed to appreciate the opportunity.

I dont need to think about it, Ye Lengan replied without hesitation. Senior Sister Murong, I truly dont need such an opportunity. Please save it for someone else who needs it more!

Though she didnt understand Murong Yumengs true intentions, she was sure they werent good. She didnt believe Murong Yumeng genuinely wanted to build a good relations.h.i.+p with her. After all, all their past interactions had been unpleasant.

Furthermore, she had zero interest in the Student Council. If she were just an ordinary student, perhaps she would consider joining to develop herself. But now, if she had any spare time, shed rather spend it refining pills than waste it on the so-called Student Council matters.

Ye Lengans words wiped the smile completely off Murong Yumengs face. Her expression soured. So, Junior Sister Ye isnt willing to give me any face, is that it?

Oh, is this an invitation or coercion? Ye Lengan asked with a smirk. Senior Sister Murong, this isnt an invitation, but coercion, isnt it?

Murong Yumengs expression darkened further. She struggled to maintain her composure and forced a smile. Junior Sister Ye, what are you saying? Of course, its an invitation, not coercion. I just feel itd be a shame if you miss such a good opportunity.

Whether its a shame or not, its up to the person involved, not others. Ye Lengan raised an eyebrow. As long as I dont think its a shame, then it isnt. Senior Sister Murong, save such a good opportunity for someone else who needs it! Thank you for your kindness, but I decline.

Since Junior Sister Ye is so adamant, I wont say anything more, Murong Yumengs smile became stiff. But my invitation remains valid. If you change your mind, you can always find me.

Ye Lengan smiled but remained silent.

Junior Sister Ye, were all students at the same school. Murong Yumeng took out her phone. And you might not know! Im also in the major of Chinese medicine. Lets exchange contact information! If you ever need help or have questions, feel free to reach out. Ill do my best.

Although her invitation for Ye Lengan to join the Student Council had failed, it didnt stop her from trying to get closer to her.

I didnt expect Senior Sister Murong to be so kind! Ye Lengan blinked and smiled. Taking care of me like this, even though weve only met a few times. Its quite rare!

I just feel like Ive hit it off with you. Murong Yumeng smiled sincerely. Ive always wanted a sister like you. So, without realizing it, I just wanted to befriend you. I hope you dont find me too forward.

Ye Lengan smiled but said nothing more.

Murong Yumeng wasnt sure what Ye Lengan was thinking, but she asked for her contact information again.

Fortunately, when she asked again, Ye Lengan still told Murong Yumeng her contact number.

Though todays attempt to recruit Ye Lengan into the Student Council had failed and Ye Lengan even mocked her, they had made some progress.

After exchanging some pleasantries, Murong Yumeng and Ye Lengan departed.

Upon returning to the dormitory and opening the door, the other three occupants fixed their gaze on Ye Lengan.

Whats with those expressions? Ye Lengan remained unfazed by their intense stares. Are you welcoming me with your eyes?

Lets not talk about this.

Zhu Bixuan couldnt keep secrets. Upon seeing Ye Lengans return, she immediately approached her, her face full of curiosity. So, why did Murong Yumeng look for you? Did she give you a hard time?

Its nothing. Ye Lengan shook her head, not hiding anything. She disclosed Murong Yumengs intentions. She said she wanted to invite me to join the Student Council.

What? Zhu Bixuan exclaimed.

Zhou Cuian and Ling Weiwei were equally shocked upon hearing this. Zhou Cuian, in particular, couldnt help but feel a tinge of jealousy.

No one had expected Murong Yumeng to personally extend an invitation to Ye Lengan. Considering the countless students vying for a spot in the Student Council, the entry requirements were incredibly stringent.

However, I didnt accept, Ye Lengan continued. And then, Murong Yumeng left.
