Chapter 1066: Why haven't they approved anything yet? "Hehe, don't look at me like that—it was you who said it yourself. You never even asked about my affairs." Lu Yun innocently shrugged. After all, when someone suddenly goes off on a tangent with something completely out of nowhere, how can you blame the ears for hearing it over and over again? Although Wang Shiyu felt mortified, she was always outspoken and, ignoring Lu Yun's words, gave a cold snort. "Exactly. I intend to marry a solid, dependable man—someone like you, a mere ordinary guy, really? You want me to be your girlfriend? Good luck with that—next life, then." With these words, Wang Shiyu felt a great sense of relief, as if she'd finally delivered a solid blow to him. Yet when she saw Land Yun's expression suddenly darken, she felt a pang of regret. Though he was quite unbearable, aside from that one incident in the small grove, he hadn't really done anything serious to her. And didn't she still harbor a little feeling for him—one she wasn't quite willing to admit? Had her words hurt him? As Wang Shiyu hesitated, her heart fluttering, ready to lower her head and apologize to Land Yun, he suddenly smiled, revealing a bright row of white teeth. "Haha, Shiyu, what's so great about being a man of principle and strength?" Wang Shiyu was taken aback. Since they'd started sitting together, she'd hardly managed to listen to a single lesson in peace—constantly being interrupted by him. Fortunately, her foundation was solid, and she could always catch up during study hours. "If you're not going to be a man of principle and strength," she shot him a withering glance, "then what kind of man are you supposed to be?" Lu Yun chuckled, "That's true, but I suspect you're not looking for merely a man who stands tall and strong, are you?" "Not exactly. What else could there be? Men always need to provide a sky of their own for their women, don't they?" Wang Shiyu was puzzled by the depth of Lu Yun's words, though she knew he wouldn't have said such things without reason. Though they had only known each other for a short time, she had long since learned to appreciate his subtle intentions—her eyes brimmed with cautious alertness. "Hehe, don't look at me like that—I'll feel embarrassed!" Lu Yun beamed with a truly innocent smile. Wang Shiyu nearly choked on her words. If Lu Yun were actually shy, then indeed there would be no one else in the world with such a thick face. People say one must have a face and trees need bark—yet this person's face is so thick! "I'm asking you a question! Stop with all this irrelevant small talk!" "Lu Yun nodded and smiled, saying, 'Then let's continue from where we left off.' Yet, as he spoke, his entire demeanor seemed that of a master from another world, immersed in deep thought—his expression on his face, however, came across rather comical. 'Now speak up! Act all serious!' Wang Shiyu, intrigued by Lu Yun's demeanor, softly urged him. 'Being both upright and steadfast is perfect—just like Pangu, that huge, simple fellow, who managed to split the primordial chaos into heaven and earth. But really, do you only want a man who stands tall and firm as your partner?' Lu Yun asked her with genuine interest. 'Honestly, what's the point of all this circling around? Just tell me something meaningful!' Wang Shiyu realized she had been outmaneuvered by Lu Yun, and with no substantial point to offer, she now glared at him fiercely, her eyes blazing. If it weren't for the class still in session, she would have certainly scorched Lu Yun's face with her fiery gaze. 'Hey—don't you want to stand somewhere else?'
