Chapter 1723: Different
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ma Yuanyuan felt rather aggrieved that she had to make such a person her target for marriage. What if that guy was ugly or had a bad temper? Worse still, what if he was abusive? What would she do then?
Compared to an ‘old man’ whom she did not know anything about, except for his name and family background, Ma Yuanyuan very much preferred Gao Feng, who was close at hand and who treated her well.
When her mom had suddenly brought up the topic, Ma Yuanyuan had only replied that she was clear about whom she had to marry in the future just to placate her mom. But Gao Feng treated her well, so she was using Gao Feng as practice and was just fooling around with him. She would definitely break up with Gao Feng in the future. There was no need for her mom to worry about that.

In fact, Ma Yuanyuan had thought everything through. If that person called Zhai Yi was really better than Gao Feng, it was not impossible for her mom’s words to become reality. But if Zhai Yi could not match up to Gao Feng in any other way apart from his family background, she would rather have Gao Feng instead.
Being a chief’s wife was her mom’s lifetime dream, not hers. She preferred having more practical things, such as the bags and clothes that Gao Feng had bought her. There was nothing fanciful about being a chief. No matter how high that position was, it was still of a lowly and poor soldier’s. She loved pretty clothes, jewelry, and bags. What could such a poor soldier use to buy her these things? Was he going to steal them for her?
Other people liked officials, but she preferred men with money!

But Ma Yuanyuan would never have expected that Gao Feng had overheard those words that she had said to her mother. It was true that one could not speak ill of someone behind their backs! How could it be so coincidental?
“Gao Feng, I can explain this. That’s my mom’s wishful thinking. My mom has had that dream since she was young. She didn’t manage to fulfill that dream, so I’m the only one who can help her fulfill that dream now. I only said those things to pacify her. I didn’t really mean it. That guy, Zhai Yi, is older than me by a few years. He’s probably almost ten years older than me. He’s such an old man. How can I possibly fall for him? Gao Feng, don’t get upset at me. Please don’t break up with me!”
If he gave her a second chance, she would never ever say such nonsense to her mom in school ever again. What made her depressed was that Gao Feng had caught her right in the act of saying these things to her mom. “Gao Feng, we haven’t been together for a long time. But can you really say that I haven’t been sincere to you? I’ve said that I was only trying to placate my mom. I didn’t mean those words at all. If you really mind, I’ll apologize to you. But I’m sure there’s no need for us to break up, right?”
Upon hearing Ma Yuanyuan’s explanation, not only did Gao Feng have no intention of turning back, but he became even wearier. He did not feel that Ma Yuanyuan was saying those things just to placate her mom. He could tell what was real and what was not.
Ma Yuanyuan might still have some interest in him now, but his elder brother, Da Bao, was also an outstanding person in every aspect. When Ma Yuanyuan found out about that, Ma Yuanyuan would definitely listen to her mom and break up with him to get together with his elder brother, Da Bao.
Of course, Gao Feng did not think that Zhai Yi would immediately accept Ma Yuanyuan even if Ma Yuanyuan was willing to break up with him and set her sights on Zhai Yi instead. Once Zhai Yi found out about Gao Feng’s experience with Ma Yuanyuan, Ma Yuanyuan was sure to be out of the game.
After hearing Ma Yuanyuan’s excuse, Gao Feng could not allow himself to continue being in a relationship with Ma Yuanyuan.
No matter how much Gao Feng liked Ma Yuanyuan in the past and how much Ma Yuanyuan tried to apologize to him, Gao Feng was still resolute on breaking up with her.
It was just a breakup, not a divorce. It did not need both parties to come to an agreement before it could happen. After Gao Feng made up his mind to break up with Ma Yuanyuan, he stopped inviting Ma Yuanyuan out. When Ma Yuanyuan tried to ask Gao Feng out, not only did he refuse, but he even asked someone to reject her on his behalf so that he would not have to face Ma Yuanyuan himself.
Gao Feng’s attitude made it so obvious that the whole school knew about Ma Yuanyuan’s and Gao Feng’s breakup within three days. After this rumor spread, the matter developed beyond Ma Yuanyuan’s control. No matter how much Ma Yuanyuan refused to break up with Gao Feng, and no matter how much she felt that the two of them were still in a romantic relationship, the other girls in their school had already started chasing after Gao Feng once again.
Gao Feng was handsome, had good academic results, and was even physically fit. In school, these studious and sporty guys were extremely popular. But in front of Ma Yuanyuan, Gao Feng never flirted with other girls. Since they were all schoolmates, Gao Feng kept his distance from every single girl.
Even when girls confessed to Gao Feng, he would always reject them in a gentlemanly manner.
Seeing the way Gao Feng handled this, many girls gave up their pursuit of Gao Feng. They felt that Gao Feng was the kind of student who was serious and conscientious about his studies. It was the three most critical years of their lives now that they were in high school. It was actually right to focus on their studies and only get into a relationship after getting into a good university and securing a good future.
Under Gao Feng’s leadership, the learning atmosphere in the entire high school was very good.
The problem was that Gao Feng had eventually gotten into a relationship with Ma Yuanyuan. At this time, the girls who felt that Gao Feng was outstanding suddenly felt as though Gao Feng had only been putting up false pretenses in the past and that their idol had finally come down to earth.
Ma Yuanyuan had already succeeded once. Since Gao Feng had gotten into one relationship, he would definitely be able to get into a second one. When would be a better time to strike than now?
Thus, the number of girls who confessed to Gao Feng upon knowing that he had broken up with Gao Feng only increased by the day. It caused such an uproar that even the teachers found out about it.
Because these students had not gone out of line, the learning atmosphere was still pretty good. Thus, the teachers could only try to convince them patiently and persuade them not to be distracted by other matters during such a crucial period. Their college entrance examination was the most important, after all.
But the law could not be enforced when everyone was an offender. Since there were so many people doing it, and none of them had gone overboard, there was nothing the teachers could do besides giving their advice.
Seeing those girls surround Gao Feng as though he was the only male in school infuriated Ma Yuanyuan. She had never even met that guy called Zhai Yi and knew nothing about him, but she was clear about how Gao Feng was as a person. She had not been in a relationship with Gao Feng for a long time, but Gao Feng had treated her well.
In the past, it was all right if she had not been able to spend like that. But everything had changed after she started dating Gao Feng.
