Chapter 13: Brother Lujing

Mu Youyu pressed her brow, typed the two words "campus belle", and many results popped up.

Lan Lin's Five Campus Belles: Bai Yun, Luo Yi, An Guan, Leng Yueyou, Leng Yueyue.

They are all prominent figures from West City's wealthy families, not unfamiliar.

She flipped through, but saw no useful information.

So she simply closed her eyes and slept.

When she opened her eyes again, Lan Lin was already in the second class of the afternoon.

If she set off for Lan Lin now, the class would almost be over.

Mu Youyu tidied up and then took a vehicle to Lan Lin.

She entered Class A and gave a report.

After receiving the teacher's signal, she then walked into the classroom and sat in her seat.

She had just settled when the dismissal bell rang.

As soon as the bell rang, Mu Youyu's phone also suddenly rang.

She glanced at it; the contact labeled "Lujing Gege" was her cousin, Song Lujing.

Mu Youyu stood up, left the class, answered the call, and spoke in a soft voice: "Lujing Gege?"

"Baby! Brother just finished his exams and returned to West City; I heard from Xige that you're back in West City?" Song Lujing's clear, warm voice came from the other end.

Mu Youyu's lips curled up: "Yes, Lujing Gege."

After she spoke, she faintly heard many boys' noisy chatter coming from Song Lujing's side.

She asked, "Lujing Gege, where are you? Why is it so noisy?"

On the other end, Song Lujing had just entered an internet cafe; hearing his sister's concerned query, he helplessly walked out.

He quickly walked to a relatively quiet spot and gently said, "Youbao, I was just in the internet cafe."

Song Lujing loves gaming, even somewhat addicted, which Mu Youyu knows; plus he has a close brother who runs a high-end internet cafe at home.

The internet cafe referred to is probably his brother's, so she didn't say anything else.

Song Lujing spoke indulgently: "Youbao, are you studying at Nan Feng now? Brother is coming to the school to find you."

Xige just told him that Youbao had returned to West City, without specifying where she studies.

Song Lujing naturally assumed she attended Nan Feng.

After all, he and Xige are there!

Mu Youyu obediently replied, "I'm at Lan Lin."

Song Lujing visibly paused, full of surprise: "How did you end up at Lan Lin? I and Xige are both at Nan Feng."

"I heard Lan Lin is well managed." Mu Youyu said in a gentle tone.

Song Lujing naturally wouldn't oppose his sister; he smiled and didn't ask further, saying, "Which class are you in at Lan Lin?"

"Class A."

"In a bit, just before class ends, I'll sneak into Lan Lin to find you and take you out for a stroll." Song Lujing proposed.

Mu Youyu had nothing else to do, so she quickly agreed.

After finally enduring until the last class's dismissal bell rang, she had just stepped out of the classroom doorway when she caught sight of a figure at the entrance of Class A.

The boy appeared to have been loitering at the Class A doorway for a while, his hair dyed gray‑pink, wearing a black baseball cap.

This made the hair color not very noticeable.

He wore Lan Lin's classic black‑and‑white shirt, standing tall, looking down at his phone, yet not noticing his sister.

"Lujing Gege."

Mu Youyu called out once and walked toward him.

Hearing the sound, Song Lujing lifted his head, revealing soft, well‑defined features; his bright eyes slightly curved, matching the Lan Lin black‑and‑white uniform, enhancing his warm, jade‑like aura.

The eyes gazing at his sister were exceptionally clear and pure, radiating gentleness.

Students passing by Class A couldn't help but glance sideways and stare, exclaiming in amazement.

"Damn, he's so handsome! I want all his info!"

"This girl is so cute!"

"They dare to dye their hair at Lan Lin?"

"Isn't that guy one of Nan Feng's campus hunks, the young master of the Song family, Song Lujing?"

"He's from Nan Feng... how did he manage to get in here?"

"Young Master Song is so handsome; Lan Lin's campus hunks are all look‑but‑don't‑touch—I want to transfer to Nan Feng!"

"Wake up, Nan Feng's campus hunks are also look‑but‑don't‑touch; if you can get one, I'll consider myself beaten."

"……"

Song Lujing stepped forward, took Mu Youyu's hand, and gently said, "Youbao, shall we go out to eat?"

Mu Youyu replied, "Okay."

Afterwards, the two walked out of Class A shoulder to shoulder.

"How have you been enjoying A City, Youbao?" Song Lujing said with an indulgent expression.

"A City is quite fun, Lujing Gege—you've been there too, haven't you?" Mu Youyu replied with a smile.

As they spoke, she suddenly realized he was wearing a Lan Lin uniform, blinked, and asked, "Lujing Gege, where did you get that uniform?"

Song Lujing ruffled her hair, smirking proudly, "The guard uncle gave it to me."

He knows the guard; he often sneaked into Lan Lin before to hang out with people.

The two laughed and chatted as they walked to the first floor; just as they were about to head toward the school gate, a rather fierce voice sounded from afar, cutting off what they were about to say:

"Hey! You two up front! Dyed hair! Lanlin Gaozhong doesn't allow students to dye hair…"

Before his words even fell, the two were blocked by the discipline director.

The discipline director strode forward, his gaze fixed directly on Mu Youyu, his expression stern: "A Class transfer student, I told you this morning to dye your hair back to its original color, didn't I? How come it's still like this?"

Immediately after, his gaze shifted to Song Lujing standing beside him, and he narrowed his eyes slightly.

Seeing him more clearly, he wondered to himself: This student looks a bit unfamiliar, and he's even wearing Lan Lin's uniform.

If he really were a student of this school...

With such an outstanding appearance, I should definitely have an impression of him.

So, before Mu Youyu could even respond, the discipline director eagerly pressed Song Lujing: "You're not a student of our school, are you? How did you sneak in?"

Faced with the rapid-fire questioning, Song Lujing instantly put on a look of bewilderment, brows slightly furrowed, as if he couldn't understand why the director hadn't seen him before.

Then, with a tone of surprise mixed with disbelief, he said: "Teacher, you don't remember me? I'm an outstanding student of Lan Lin!"

Upon hearing that, Mu Youyu couldn't help but turn her face away.

Seeing his 'innocent person being suspected' expression, the discipline director couldn't help but frown, his eyes filling with doubt.

Logically speaking, aside from Mu Youyu, there haven't been any other transfer students recently...

Could it really be that I made a mistake?

Song Lujing watched the director's troubled expression, secretly amused—this teacher is quite entertaining—but he kept an innocent look on his face.

The discipline director quickly brought his thoughts back to the matter at hand, sternly reaffirming: "No matter what, Lan Lin does not allow dyed hair!"

Hearing that, Song Lujing immediately straightened his posture, earnest: "Teacher, we understand."

Mu Youyu also returned a smile, looking obedient: "Teacher, you can rest assured—I'll dye it back by the 32nd!"

Song Lujing quickly nodded in agreement: "Exactly, teacher—on the 32nd you'll see our jet-black hair."

The discipline director nodded satisfiedly: "Then you two..."

Before he could finish speaking, Song Lujing without hesitation took his sister's hand, turned, and sprinted toward the school gate.

... Wait, where does a '32nd' come from in May!?

"Hey, you two, stop right there!" the discipline director shouted, flustered and angry.

This guy definitely isn't from Lan Lin!

But, grayish-pink hair? Couldn't it be Song Lujing from neighboring Nan Feng?

Someone from Nan Feng daring to sneak into Lan Lin? That's outrageous...

Forget it.

Seeing the two gradually drift away, the discipline director couldn't be bothered to chase them; he merely withdrew his gaze and strolled slowly across the campus.

Ah, youth is just good.
