Chapter 011: I have my reason
WeiWei and Rourou looked at me with worried looks.
"Both of you know me the best. With my conservative character, do you think that I'd be able to fall in love with someone but get married to another?"
Both of them shook their heads either way in unison.
"So, There's no such thing like love, or dating for me."
Rourou hugged me from the side, hoping it would comfort me, while WeiWei clasped my hand within hers. We shared a few moments of silence. Both of them were feeling down. I didn't want to make them sadder, so I immediately cheered up.
"Hey, both of you, are you mourning for someone? So melancholic. Back to your positions! No more sad faces!"
Hearing that, both of them seemed to cheer up a bit and returned to their tables and continued with their study. Relieved, I let out a deep sigh.
Born in a prestigious Indian family of high social status, it was my duty to continue the bloodline of my family, since I was the only child

“How can you casually say that?” “Because I know how you feel.” It might have sounded romantic, in a romantic atmosphere like this, with a romantic guy standing beside me, holding an umbrella for me, and walking me back to my dorm. But right now, I was feeling very much pissed off. “Huh. Do you know how I feel? Do you?” “Take a good rest, I don't think you can manage this conversation.” “Can you please stop it? Stop acting as if you know me! It's really irritating!” Only the pattering of the raindrops on the floor was audible and nothing else. “I hate it when people act up as if they understand me. Don't you even dare to try that!” Saying that I left without another word. I don't know why I was so angry, but it was painful, so painful to hear his words. Especially when he said that he knew how I felt. I felt my legs automatically leading their way up to my dorm. I flung the door open. RouRou and WeiWei gave me startled
Conquering The Trial Of Love Chapter 013: The Chat and the Challenge
I tried my best not to yell at him and took some deep breaths to ease out the fury building up within me. “Chen Lan, let's talk.” “Isn't that what we're doing right now?” Is he stupid? Now that I try to be calm, he is purposefully trying to get on my nerves again by making those sarcastic remarks. “Come let's go and sit somewhere.” Saying that I found a stone table with a few stone stools located under a tree. It was the nearest option. I went there and sat, so did he. “So finally, you call me by my name.” Ah! Shit! I must have called him 'kid' or 'little junior'. “When you call a senior by name, why can't I call a junior by his name?” “Sounds logical. But for me, it really seemed like you did that subconsciously.” I must make sure and check that this guys majors in Data Science, not Applied Psychology. “I'm not here to chat leisurely with you, let me come straight to the… “ Befo
Conquering The Trial Of Love Chapter 014: The result of our challenge?
.... After a few moments of thought, I was literally sober enough and made my decision. Why should I do what he says? Would he even know if I think good about him or not? Silly guy. I'm gonna continue to treat you like trash within my mind. What can you do? I shot up from my seat. Both of those silly roommates of mine were silently munching up their food without even looking up. I left without a word. Would it help if I blame everything on them or yell at them? No. When I was almost at the exit, a student who was sitting there suddenly ran up to me and gave me a folded piece of paper. "A handsome guy wearing blue told me to give this to you." Handsome guy... To hell with his looks! I thanked the student and unfolded the paper as I left the cafeteria. "With your personality, if my guess was correct, you would trash this challenge straight away even befor
Conquering The Trial Of Love Chapter 015: The lingering ending...
He was looking at me keenly and didn't look very surprised, as if he was expecting I'd say that. “I admit that my behaviour was too hostile towards you, and other girls wouldn't probably have reacted unreasonably like me.” He didn't even blink. Now you must be expecting that I'd apologize. Huh. In your dreams. Here I come to break your expectation! I was about to speak when he cut in as usual, “Everyone is unique and so are you. Since it is you, you acted that way, and such things can't be judged with a common context. And it isn't like you are gonna apologize for behaving like that either. Then why bother saying those?” I was having goosebumps right now. Does he have the superpower of telepathy? Why does he always guess everything correctly before I say them out? I drooped my shoulders, totally lost by the interruption in the conversation. I took a deep breath. I must make things cl
Conquering The Trial Of Love Chapter 016: That 'something' within me
That punk! When I stood there frowning, unable to find the exact words to vent all my anger on him, he still stood at the same spot, looking at me with a strange amusement. A group of girls who were passing by happened to notice him, and of course, it is hard to ignore him. They all gave huge gasps and started to openly comment on how handsome he was. He turned around at them and gave them a polite smile. And with that, those girls went even crazier on him, attracting the attention of other girls in the surroundings. He didn't seem to feel awkward. He must have been used to being surrounded by girls who tell him how handsome he is. I didn't move but was still frowning at him while he continued to gaze into my eyes. It seemed as if time was passing slower, or maybe we were really staring at each other for a long time. I decided to prolong eye contact and direct all my fury at him through my eyes. At that moment, he suddenly broke e
Conquering The Trial Of Love Chapter 017: Let's inquire about him...
I must have gone crazy to have such a thought. I have been trying my best to drive him away and now that he's gone, how can I even think of going after him? I'm insane! It's nothing! Just going around and inquiring about him isn't a big deal. Anyone can do that but me. You're making such a fuss. Just think about it. What if he hears that I've been asking around about him? Why don't we send Weiwei or RouRou? But... After that apology, they won't make fun of you again. yes... Then what are you waiting for? Stand up and keep going! I stood up with a strange determination, while that 'strange determination' made my chair move with a screech which was loud enough to turn many heads in the pin-drop silence availing in the library. I, fill
Conquering The Trial Of Love Chapter 018: 'The result of our investigation', and the 'seaside getaway'
"What?" "Let's sit down first." Saying that WeiWei sat down, while I pulled up my chair next to her and sat down, directing all my attention to her. "I spotted a few Data Science freshmen with the help of some of my friends from that department and asked them about Chen Lan but they didn't seem to know him." I could feel my face turning gloomy and puzzled. She continued. "Then I looked up for more students when finally someone said that they knew him. And here comes the weird part." I hobbled up close to her and inclined forward. "Just in case, I wanted to check if his appearance and name matched. And when I described him they agreed to everything like tall in height, fair complexion, dark eyes, fit physique; and denied it right away when I said that he was strikingly handsome." "What?!" "They said that he was just a random guy with plain looks." "Chen Lan being handsome is a profound truth and how can t
Conquering The Trial Of Love Chapter 019: The abrupt getaway from 'The Seaside Getaway'
No one of us dared to turn back. Our interlinked hands were clasping each other even tighter. Though I was standing in the middle of the three, I felt as if I was deserted alone on that beach. "Laia!" Uh! again! When he called me, it sounded so precise and loud like a bullet being shot midst a pin drop silence. As in all the inexplicable reactions my body gave after meeting him, this time also my body did an inexplicable action. I freed my hands and turned around. Chen Lan was standing 10m away from me. He looked handsome as ever with his hands in the pockets of his light-blue jeans which was paired up with a white shirt. He was standing at a perfect spot where the setting sun's rays gave an illusion as if emerging from him and he continued to stand there with his mischievous look. I was aware that I was staring at him but didn't know what else to do. Thankfully Rou Rou came to my rescue. "Why are you here?"
