Standing Next To You-Chapter 216: Only exclusive for him

In this world, both in the past and the current lifetime, it was only Fei Chuan who gave so much importance to her. He devoted the rest of his life to accompanying her. And now, the current young him wanted to give her the best he could.

Who else could be this warm to her?

No one else could move her heart like Fei Chuan.

Fei Chuan was speechless.

She was still not over it, huh?

Even though Fei Chuan knew Bei Sangyun was unpredictable, with thoughts he could not comprehend, he could not help but be affected by her words. His eyes shook.

"I am still a beginner at this, so please be patient with me. I will make sure you fall for me, and you won’t look for anyone else other than me. Even if I have to drag you to the altar, I will do so."

Fei Chuan, who was about to be moved, was struck dumb. Was this a confession or a threat?

Bei Sangyun’s gaze became determined. "In this life, you will marry me. And we will live happily ever after."

Fei Chuan replied with skepticism, "I don’t believe in fairy tales though."

Living happily ever after? What did Bei Sangyun ate to utter such cringe-worthy words?

However, Fei Chuan wouldn’t admit that he was somewhat moved. Living a happy married life with Bei Sangyun? He couldn’t imagine it. But there was a part of him that was burning and looking forward to it.

Jang Shin glanced at the couple who had been dancing for three songs straight. How long were they going to keep dancing? Did they intend not to dance with anyone else?

"Aren’t you going to dance?" Lin Sunji returned to the table, having just finished dancing with another school grass* from a different section. Another person came up to her to ask her for a dance, but Lin Sunji rejected him.

Lin Sunji glanced at Jang Shin and hinted, "This is a beautiful song and very romantic."

Jang Shin nodded, not particularly paying attention to what she was saying, "You are right."

Lin Sunji bit her lips and said sweetly, "I have rested enough. How about we try this song for an impromptu dance?"

Jang Shin saw Bei Sangyun and Fei Chuan finally returning to their table. He stood up and quickly came up in their direction without giving a reply to Lin Sunji.

Lin Sunji, who was waiting for his answer, watched him leave speechlessly. Her face turned ugly when she saw him approaching Bei Sangyun.

.....

Fei Chuan handed a drink to Bei Sangyun, which she accepted. As soon as she put down the glass, she saw a handsome young man in white.

Seeing the familiar white suit that caused some ruckus in the previous homecoming dance, some blurry memories of the night of the previous homecoming dance resurfaced in her mind.

Oh, so this is Jang Shin. He wore the exact suit he wore in the previous timeline.

She remembered the garden behind the venue, the cold wind, the full moon, and the young man’s confession.

Bei Sangyun’s face changed. They don’t have much interaction this time around, so he won’t be like that again, right?

Jang Shin arrived at the table and smiled like a gentleman to her, "We meet again. Can I join your table?"

Bei Sangyun did not like disrupting her time alone with Fei Chuan, so she was going to reject him. But before she did, Fei Chuan spoke, "This table is only for two. If you are joining, should I leave then?"

Fei Chuan then turned his gaze at Bei Sangyun. His brows were furrowed, clearly telling her he did not want to move.

Jang Shin’s gaze darkened for a moment, "You don’t have to leave since I am not going to stay for long. I just want to speak with Young Miss Lin. But if you are going to be polite for me to hand me your chair, I’ll gladly accept it."

Fei Chuan tilted his head arrogantly, "I don’t want to leave my chair, though. You see, I am still tired from dancing. Actually, both of us are tired."

"Then you don’t have to leave. I am just saying since you seemed to be offering. But clearly, you are only offering with empty words."

Fei Chuan’s gaze narrowed, "Since you know it then why come here? Are you asking my partner for a dance? She is tired though. Aren’t you?" Fei Chuan turned his head to Bei Sangyun as he asked the last question.

Bei Sangyun blinked. Was Fei Chuan this enthusiastic in conversation? He took the initiative to speak for her. Wow.

Bei Sangyun turned to Jang Shin and gave a superficial smile. "If you have something to say, you can say it here right now. As my partner said, I am still tired from dancing."

Jang Shin gave a swift glance at Fei Chuan and her. He thought for a moment and finally said what he came here for, "I apologize if I came too rude for coming at you just after your ’exhausting’ dance. But if you have time later on, I wish to dance with you."

Fei Chuan’s gaze darkened. This man was too persistent. He gazed at Bei Sangyun, a bit anxious. If Bei Sangyun wanted to dance with him, he wouldn’t be able to stop her.

Bei Sangyun smiled, "I am sorry, but tonight, I am only solely exclusive for my partner. I won’t dance with anyone except him."

Fei Chuan’s eyelashes trembled, while Jang Shin was taken aback.

It took Jang Shin a long time before he could process what Bei Sangyun said. He did not expect to be rejected again without hesitation. After all, it was only a dance.

Jang Shin clenched his fist. "...I see. Then I hope you two enjoy your night." He then quickly left Bei Sangyun’s table.

Fei Chuan watched his back. His tight nerves loosened as he watched him walk away. For some reason, Jang Shin gave him a sense of crisis. He did not know why he was feeling that way, but he was on guard whenever Jang Shin approached Bei Sangyun.

Bei Sangyun waited until Jang Shin was completely out of their range. She winked at Fei Chuan, "I told you. Your charm works."
