Ye Liangchen's expression turned sour as he returned to the classroom.
As he sat back in his seat, Ye Liangchen closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Wang Rui looked at him curiously.
What's wrong with this guy? He made Li Qingxue cry.
And now he's the one acting like he's about to burst with anger?
"Gao Quan, what's wrong with him?" Seeing Gao Quan walk in from behind, Wang Rui asked.
Gao Quan first glanced at Li Qingxue, recalling what Ye Liangchen had said.
After hesitating for a moment, he chose to tell Wang Rui in front of Li Qingxue, "Even though Brother Chen has given up on pursuing Qingxue, after all, they've been friends for so many years, so he can't just completely turn a blind eye. That's why Brother Chen went to look for Long Aotian..."
After saying this, he gave Li Qingxue a deep look before returning to his seat.
Hearing these words, Li Qingxue, who had been silent all along, unconsciously tightened her grip on the pen in her hand.
Her gaze toward Ye Liangchen became complicated.
Feeling Li Qingxue's gaze, Ye Liangchen remained unmoved, merely looking out the window with his sharp jawline exposed.
"Brother Chen, I'm sorry."
"Even though you told me not to say anything, I still mentioned in front of Li Qingxue that you went to pick a fight with Long Aotian for her." Gao Quan whispered, "You won't blame me, right?"
He felt that since Ye Liangchen was willing to go to such lengths for Li Qingxue, it shouldn't be kept a secret.
It had been a long time since he had seen someone so devoted, silently making sacrifices without expecting anything in return.
Such scenarios, Gao Quan had only seen on TV growing up.
This just showed how deep Ye Liangchen's love for Li Qingxue was.
Ye Liangchen's heart was elated, but on the surface, he still didn't show too much. He spoke in a deep voice, "Fool, why would Brother Chen blame you? You're just stating a fact."
At this point, Ye Liangchen self-deprecatingly chuckled, "Besides, these are all things I did willingly, and I never expected Li Qingxue to repay me or be moved by it."
"Brother Chen, your love is so great." Gao Quan was touched.
"That's what men should be like. You just haven't met someone you like yet. If you do, you'll act like Brother Chen."
When Ye Liangchen said this, he didn't deliberately control his voice.
Instead, he spoke in a deep, husky "bubble tone."
After uttering these words, Ye Liangchen kept an eye on Li Qingxue's back.
Seeing her about to turn around, Ye Liangchen raised his gaze 45 degrees in advance, his lips curling into a perfectly timed self-deprecating smile.
...
Elsewhere, Long Aotian and Hu Yuying finished their post-meal stroll and returned to the classroom.
His steps halted, and he frowned slightly, raising an eyebrow as he scanned the room.
Those who met his gaze instinctively turned away.
"Is there something on my face?" Long Aotian whispered to Hu Yuying.
Hu Yuying looked closely and then shook her head.
"Strange." After saying this, he walked toward his seat.
Soon, not only Long Aotian but also Hu Yuying noticed that their classmates seemed to be sneaking glances at them, giving off an oddly unsettling feeling.
She unconsciously touched her face, wondering if something was stuck on it.
This situation continued until the start of class, continuing until the teacher handed out the morning test papers.
Long Aotian, who had consistently been dead last, had this time risen to the 5th from last spot.
An improvement of a full four places!
If this had happened in the past, everyone might have thought Long Aotian had just been lucky.
But now, they all believed it was a change brought about by love, and the person who had spurred him to change was none other than Hu Yuying!
However, when Hu Yuying's score was revealed, the class fell silent for a moment before erupting into uproar. She had secured a perfect first in math, a full eleven points higher than the second place.
All the classmates couldn't help but turn to look at Hu Yuying, only to find that she showed no significant emotional response to her score.
Instead, Long Aotian's expression was filled with indescribable joy, as if he had just experienced the highlight of his life.
For him, rising from dead last to 5th from last was something incredibly amazing and worth boasting about!
Seeing this, Wang Shuo looked at the 5 points on his paper and his dead last ranking, his lips curling into a bitter smile: "It's over. There used to be Long Aotian at the bottom, but this time when I go home, my dad is definitely going to beat me to death with seven wolves!"
The teacher spent an entire class period explaining the test paper.
But Hu Yuying spent the entire afternoon meticulously going through every wrong question, taking notes, and listing corresponding exercises.
She assigned Long Aotian to redo them during evening self-study.
When focused on something, time always seemed to fly by.
Soon Long Aotian welcomed the second weekend of this world.
...
Saturday morning.
Li Qingxue habitually woke up early, gazing out the window at the gloomy world outside.
The weather wasn't great today; it was overcast.
She stared blankly at the overcast sky.
For some reason, she got out of bed, dressed, and grabbed an umbrella before heading out.
It was unusually early today; even her mom hadn't started preparing breakfast yet.
Li Qingxue took a bottle of milk from the fridge and hurried out.
The wind picked up!
Li Qingxue zipped her jacket tighter and quickened her pace.
Arriving at the riverside park, she looked up.
Due to the weather, the area that is usually bustling with elderly people exercising was only sparsely populated today.
As the first drop of rain fell, the remaining people began to head home.
Li Qingxue walked alone to the riverside lawn, opened her umbrella, and sat down.
The sound of wind rustling the river, the gentle flow of the water, the tapping of rain on the umbrella, the dampness on her face...
These sounds formed the most beautiful and unique musical harmonies of nature.
Listening quietly to these sounds, her mood became unexpectedly pleasant and relaxed.
The rain grew heavier, soaking the lawn.
Li Qingxue slowly stood up from the grass.
Glancing at the time on her phone, she walked up the slope to the flat cement ground above, once again looking around.
The rippling rain created a curtain of water in her vision.
Indeed, such weather is most suitable for sleeping.
Just as she was about to leave, her gaze caught a silhouette in the distance, lazily lying on a park pavilion bench.
Li Qingxue's eyes lit up; she changed direction and walked towards the park pavilion.
Before she even got close, she heard humming coming from inside.
Stepping into the pavilion, she closed her umbrella and placed the milk she had been carrying next to the figure.
Hearing the commotion, Long Aotian opened his eyes: "Did you come here especially to find me?"
Then he glanced at the milk beside him: "Is there something you can't figure out again?"
"You young folks, if only you could channel this energy into your studies, every one of you would be a prodigy."
lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
