Chapter 35: Yo, why are you alone, sis?

Yo, why are you alone, sis?

The speaker wore all black, stood very straight, and looked to be 1.7 meters.

They had a black wolf‑tail hairstyle, exquisite features, yet their brows betrayed a heroic spirit; their skin was fair, their high nose bridge above lips that curved slightly, and their tone of voice carried teasing.

At this moment, their charming peach‑blossom eyes lifted slightly, bright and clear, with long, upturned lashes adding a touch of allure, and their brows and eyes were full of smiles.

The surroundings fell silent for a few seconds, then a hubbub of voices, big and small, rose.

Damn, they're so hot!

Ahhhh, who is this? This young lady is about to shift her affections!

Is this person here for that A‑class transfer student?

……

Mu Youyu stood up, looking at the person before her with a full smile, and said, 'Ningning.'

This person was Lin Ning.

Lin Ning raised an eyebrow, slung an arm around her best friend's shoulder, imitating a male tone, lazy and carefree: 'Youbao, a day without seeing you feels like three autumns.'

Mu Youyu's eyes curved into smiles as she took Lin Ning's hand: 'Let's go, this isn't a good place to talk.'

She was a transfer student, had dyed her hair brown, and the students' attention had originally been on her.

Add to that Lin Ning standing beside her, and they were even more eye‑catching.

'Sure.' Lin Ning nodded obediently, letting her best friend lead the way.

Just a few steps in, she suddenly turned back, glanced at the students still watching her, and raised her brows slightly; her peach‑blossom eyes seemed to flash, instantly stunning a large crowd.

Ahhhh, it's really good! So handsome!

Could this be the transfer student's boyfriend?

No way, I've been dumped!

Is this person from our school? How come I didn't know!

Ahhhh, so jealous—Young Master Jiang, Yu Ci, Gu Xingnan, Xi Shao, and Jing Shao are all circling her! Now even a school‑hunk‑level guy is after her!

When will I be able to……

Go dream on.

……

Mu Youyu brought Lin Ning to the school gate.

The gatekeeper knew Mu Youyu; whenever she wanted to leave, they'd just open the big gate without a word.

Add that the gatekeeper also knew Lin Ning, and the two made it out successfully.

Lin Ning: 'You're not going to class?'

Mu Youyu: indifferent, 'Not going; whether I go or not, it's the same.'

Lin Ning felt the same—whether she went to class or not—and today she got up early just to come to Lan Lin to surprise her best friend!

She then thought of something, her eyes shifting: 'I heard Wanwan say you don't go to class in A City either, yet you're still first.'

Just a few days after the start of her first year of high school, she came to A City to hang out with Mu Youyu, met Wanwan, hit it off, and added her as a friend.

She also smoothly joined the A City Sheng Luo Middle School campus group, learned that her best friend basically skipped class every day, yet her grades remained the same—still first.

Lin Ning admired this about her best friend; unlike her, she was a total slacker, and whether she attended class or not made no difference.

After walking out of the school gate for about a minute, Lin Ning paused and said, 'Wait, I just got into Lan Lin and you're already pulling me out?'

Mu Youyu blinked, 'There are so many people at school, Ningning, take me out to play~'

Lin Ning grabbed her hand: 'Okay, okay, okay, let's go!'

She also didn't know where to take Mu Youyu; there really wasn't much fun here, and Mu Youyu had basically done everything fun in C City already.

Thinking this, Lin Ning pulled off the black wig on her head, and her pink hair, just past her shoulders, swayed gently with the motion.

Mainly, her dyed hair was too eye‑catching; otherwise she wouldn't wear a wig.

'Ah, Youbao, it's a shame you're not in Nan Feng.' Lin Ning tidied her hair and sighed.

Mu Youyu smiled slightly, speaking frankly: 'If I had known Jiang Liangjin was in Lan Lin from the start, I would definitely have gone to Nan Feng.'

It's a pity she never wanted to ask, look into it, or hear anything about him at first.

Now that the misunderstanding between the two of them is cleared up, she just wants to keep staying in Lan Lin.

Lan Lin is nice too.

Lin Ning couldn't help but purse her lips slightly: 'What's so great about Lan Lin? I saw on your school's forum that you and Jiang Liangjin made up?' And they even ate together!

Lin Ning and Mu Youyu have grown up together since childhood, only Lin Ning is one year older.

When they were little, Lin Ning only liked to play with Mu Youyu among kids her age, and she was quite clingy.

But Jiang Liangjin was even clingier.

Moreover, because Lin Ning knew what kind of person Jiang Liangjin was, she was mostly afraid, so most of the time Mu Youyu and Jiang Liangjin walked side by side while she trailed behind.

Many times Mu Youyu pulled Lin Ning to her side, Jiang Liangjin would look at her with a hostile gaze.

Later, in elementary school, they met Yu Ci and Gu Xingnan.

Thus it became Mu Youyu and Jiang Liangjin walking side by side, with Yu Ci, Gu Xingnan, and Lin Ning behind.

Sometimes Jiang Liangjin stood to Mu Youyu's left, she stood to her right, and Yu Ci and Gu Xingnan stood together.

'Exactly.' Mu Youyu only replied with the last sentence.

Lin Ning pondered for a moment: earlier, when Youbao went to A City, that thing Jiang Liangjin kept asking where Youbao was.

She refused to say, and afterward Jiang Liangjin stopped looking for her.

Then she also never mentioned him to Youbao.

Who would have thought that after all these twists and turns, the two of them would reconcile again.

To be honest, she doesn't have much good feeling toward Jiang Liangjin; this person has liked to pretend since childhood, and as a kid it seemed like she regarded him as an enemy who stole her friends.

However, Jiang Liangjin treats Youbao quite well, and it seems he might have a bit of affection for Youbao…

Forget it; anyway she has her senior, so let Youbao do whatever makes her happy.

"Fine, fine, as long as you're happy." Lin Ning waved her hand, looking like she couldn't be bothered.

She had an idea, snapped her fingers, and said, "How about I take you to play in Nan Feng?"

Lan Lin and Nan Feng are adjacent.

Mu Xi Ge and Song Ge are also in Nan Feng, and they happen to bring Youbao to meet the person she admires!

Mu Youyu agreed.

The two turned and entered Nan Feng together.

The gatekeeper of Nanfeng Gaozhong knew Lin Ning; it was after school, so the gatekeeper recorded Mu Youyu's information, and the two successfully entered.

Lin Ning brought her to the playground.

It was right after school, the playground was crowded and noisy.

Mu Youyu glanced over and could see many students had dyed their hair.

Lin Ning explained: "Most of our students like to compare with Lan Lin; Lan Lin's freshmen and sophomores aren't allowed to dye hair, but many of our students do, and walking back and forth at your school is a way to show off."

Nan Feng's management is relatively lax compared to Lan Lin's; as long as it doesn't affect studies, teachers turn a blind eye.

When it's time for class, they attend; when it's time to play, they play. Many wealthy youths who don't want restrictions come to Nan Feng.

"Ningning!" Just then, a clear female voice rang out.

The speaker was a tall girl with medium-length hair who ran toward Lin Ning, followed by two female friends, shouting loudly.

This drew the attention of most people on the playground, who began to whisper.

"Yo, school belle Lin, you're here so early today."

"Who's the person next to her?"

"Wow, goddess-level—could she be a transfer student from our school?"

"How come I didn't know about this?"

"..."
