Junze called Yunyu fifteen times in a row until Yunyu showed up in the café. Junze was fidgety, he was about to call Duan family's men to search for Yunyu, because Yunyu would usually answer on the third or fourth call.
When Yunyu arrived, Junze hugged him immediately in front of many people. They became the source of attention in the café, two good looking boys publicly showing their display of affection.
The phones were capturing this scene between them, which made Yunyu feel a bit embarrassed. He pushed Junze gently, "People are watching."
"I don't care, you didn't answer my call fifteen times. I'm worried sick," Junze said in a low tone, but there was an obvious worry in his voice.
"I—I was just taking a walk outside, you worry too much…"
"Yunyu, I'm worried sick…" Junze repeated his words again. Yunyu could feel the sincerity in Junze. Yunyu could feel that his body started to heat up.
[System…]
[Pupa: Yes?]
[I will abort that plan we talked about on the road. I don't want to crush Junze's feeling like this. He is truly a good hearted man.]
[Pupa: If you really want to break the engagement now, Junze will definitely blacken and your life will be even harder in this world. Trust me, I am a heartless entity created by my master, but at least I still have more common sense than you.]
[I have common sense too!]
[Pupa: Your common sense about love is as good as a mouse holding a machine gun.]
[Wait, what do you mean? It doesn't make sense!]
[Pupa: Exactly.]
"It's okay, I'm here. Let's have a meal first," Yunyu pacified Junze and they sat at the table. Yunyu started the conversation by asking Junze about his Gaokao. As expected from Junze though, he was calm and collected, then he answered;
"It's easier than I thought, I think, we can top the ranking for this year," Junze said with certain assurance. His eyes darted at Yunyu who was munching the cake, "You finished way too early and left earlier, are you sure you are not meeting with someone?"
Yunyu's body froze for a second, he glanced at Junze's phoenix eyes then continued munching his cake, "I am just taking a walk, the test is stressful, you know."
"I see," Junze said nothing. He stared at Yunyu who subtly avoided his eye contact. Junze clenched his fist, but said nothing. But deep down, he knew that he had to tie Yunyu as soon as possible, because Yunyu's heart was still not completely his.
Junze felt like Ronghui's shadow always lurked around Yunyu, waiting patiently until Yunyu left his watch, then that guy would snatch Yunyu, like a hunter.
Junze was a possessive man, he admitted that. He just didn't want Yunyu to see him as an unreasonable man. But he wanted to tie Yunyu as soon as possible to relax his mind for a second.
Junze took a deep breath and held Yunyu's hand, he stared deeply at Yunyu's eyes, "I know that we will get accepted in the university, let's do the engagement next month, how about it? I will make sure that I have everything prepared for us to be formally engaged."
[Wow… Junze is not playing around…]
[Pupa: He never plays around. He is a serious man after he finds his true love.]
[So it is inevitable, right? I have to accept the engagement of he will blacken.]
[Pupa: Pretty much. Do you want to restart the world now?]
[… I still have a plan in me. But this is the last resort. Since there is no other way, then I guess, I will have to do it. It's just a bit unfortunate, because it will hurt three of us, especially me.]
[Pupa: Just like the previous world?]
[Yes.]
Yunyu nodded reassuringly and kissed Junze's hand, he giggled, "You are so impatient, let's do it next month~"
"That's what I want," Junze finally smiled. He was relieved, but there was one small thing that bothered him, "Why did you change your phone ringtone?"
"… why did you use your voice reciting poems as my ringtone?"
"Because it's romantic, of course," Junze blushed slightly, "If you want, I have fifteen more of me reciting poems. I will share it with you."
…

The news about Zhou Junze and Li Yunyu's engagement spread like wildfire. They announced the engagement party right after they were announced to be the top two of this year's Gaokao. With Junze as rank one and Yunyu only slightly behind him, as rank two. Junze scored flawlessly without any mistake at all in his exam, while Yunyu only had one wrong answer.
Their announcement was a trending topic in social media, although they were quite popular in Fujoshi circle, they were now popular even for common folks. Because of Zhou Junze and Li Yunyu's achievement in Gaokao, and Zhou Junze who revealed his identity as the future leader of Duan Family businesses.
Majority praised Junze's bravery to come out and announce his engagement with a man, although some people hated his guts, especially a man who was now sitting on a chair with a gun in his hand. Yang Ronghui blankly stared at the television screen showing Zhou Junze and Li Yunyu holding hands together after announcing their engagement, Duan Biya was standing beside them.
Meanwhile, Zhou Jiayi was in deep trouble right now, because Duan Biya had successfully separated the Duan family businesses from the Zhou family. On top of that, Duan Biya filed for divorce with cheating and neglect as the reason.
Ronghui felt that his world had completely crumbled, he scoffed, chuckled, and then laughed out loud. He didn't even know why he laughed. But he knew that he had lost against Junze, he was not good enough, not fast enough, not powerful enough.
He raised his hand who was holding the gun and stared at the ceiling, "If I can't have you, then nobody can."
