Shen Jianxi fell silent after speaking, and this silence made both men's hearts leap into their throats.
Swallowing hard, Shen Jianxi stole a glance at them and asked, "Do you think I'm beautiful?"
"Beautiful!" they both said in unison, then glared at each other with disdain.
"Cute?"
"Cute!"
"Then... can't I have two boyfriends at the same time?" The softly spoken words left Jin Ke and Wen Huaizhi speechless.
77: "You really know how to play, host... can your body handle it?"
"...You're getting naughty, 77."
Jin Ke was the first to react. He tried to keep his voice calm, "Are you sure you can handle it?" His sister was as capable of attracting admirers as ever, and now she had learned to be even more audacious.
Shen Jianxi didn't answer Jin Ke. In her mind, she asked 77, "77, do I still have two missions left?"
77: "Yes, but host, I advise you not to court death." Sudan Novel Network
She cast this advice aside. Shen Jianxi pulled the still stunned Wen Huaizhi closer and kissed him. The soft touch made his eyes widen, and Jin Ke clenched his fist.
77: "Beep! Affection +9, current Wen Huaizhi affection: 91."
77 was somewhat speechless. This actually worked???
Then Shen Jianxi looked at Jin Ke and said with deep emotion, "I love you, and I love him too. I'm probably not the only woman who has fallen in love with two men at once, right?"
77: "Beep! Mission One: Confess to Jin Ke in front of Wen Huaizhi completed!"
"Beep! Mission Two: Kiss Wen Huaizhi in front of Jin Ke completed!"
Jin Ke stared at her expressionlessly. This was the first time Shen Jianxi had seen him like this, and she felt a little scared. She forced herself to stay calm and raised her chin, asking, "Wh-what's wrong!"
"Heh!" Jin Ke knew Shen Jianxi didn't love them. Although he didn't know why she said it, "I won't force you."
"I'm willing!" A loud declaration drew both Shen Jianxi's and Jin Ke's gazes to Wen Huaizhi.
Jin Ke:
Jin Ke grabbed Wen Huaizhi by the collar and pulled him outside, "Come, let's have a chat. Xi Xi needs to rest." He then turned to Shen Jianxi and smiled, "We're leaving now. Get some rest, Xi Xi."
"Bye~" As soon as he finished speaking, he closed the door.
The moment the door shut, both their expressions changed.
"Xi Xi kissed me just now, which means she likes me. Mr. Jin should give up sooner rather than later to avoid future heartache," Wen Huaizhi said with a smile, but there was a hidden warning in his tone.
Jin Ke's demeanor instantly turned sharp, and he stared at Wen Huaizhi with a grim expression. After a long pause, he suddenly burst into laughter, "Wen Huaizhi, do you really think I wouldn't dare to do anything to you?"
"I'll be waiting to see."
Their eyes met in the air, neither willing to back down.

Their goddess broke up with her boyfriend!
This news spread rapidly through S University. All the male students were in an uproar, and Shen Jianxi's confessions of love increased noticeably.
But among the many suitors, Wen Huaizhi was the most eye-catching. Not only was his pursuit extremely high-profile, but he was also a good friend of Ye Chuanqi.
The girls were all calling Shen Jianxi a vixen, too cunning and manipulative, having seduced their two male gods.
Meanwhile, the two at the center of the storm were having a candlelit dinner.
Shen Jianxi looked at the elaborately decorated restaurant, her lips twitching. She hadn't expected Wen Huaizhi to be so audacious now. Recalling his innocent eyes when he'd said, "I asked them to do a simple decoration, Xi Xi, you don't mind, do you?" when she saw the decorations upon arrival, she was filled with helplessness.
"Xi Xi, tomorrow is Liang Chengyin's birthday banquet. The Wen and Liang families have business dealings, so I have to go. Would you... be willing to be my date?" Wen Huaizhi asked, feeling particularly anxious. He knew Ye Chuanqi would also be there tomorrow and wondered if she would agree.
He knew his intentions were despicable; he wanted to be with her in front of Ye Chuanqi, to make Ye Chuanqi experience the feeling he had when he saw them together before.
Shen Jianxi looked at him with a complex expression, guessing his intentions. She didn't want to hurt Ye Chuanqi anymore, but she couldn't afford to neglect Wen Huaizhi's affection points. Fine, she'd just avoid Ye Chuanqi then. With this thought, Shen Jianxi nodded in agreement.
"Okay, what time tomorrow?"
Overwhelmed by the surprise, Wen Huaizhi excitedly said, "Tomorrow night at eight. I'll pick you up then. The dress will be delivered to your house tomorrow afternoon."
