~9 min read 1,630 words

Xia Chaoyi turned his head with a zvzv sound, "Brother Jin, Sister Yu, I just went outside and saw a crowd—Leng Yueyue got beaten unconscious and was taken to the hospital!"

His tone carried a hint of disbelief; even if Leng Yueyue was arrogant, she's still a member of the Leng Family!

West City's sixth-ranked noble family, it's said she's the Leng Family's most beloved daughter!

And she's even engaged to Gu Xingnan!

... Although Xia Chaoyi could easily handle it, provoking her would be a bit troublesome.

Mu Youyu was playing a little game with Jiang Liangjin.

She couldn't help but tremble upon hearing this news.

The on-screen character stepped on a banana peel falling from the sky, slipped, and fell off the cliff again.

!!!

"The little game Second Brother made is too dark—traps everywhere!"

Mu Youyu stared at the black little figure on the screen that read 'You fell off the cliff again' dancing, scoffing at the screen with a soft 'tsk'.

She nudged the phone toward the corner of the desk, then turned to look at Jiang Liangjin, still holding a hint of resentment.

"If I'd known, I wouldn't have asked Second Brother for this beta version—I've fallen off the cliff four times in level five!"

Jiang Liangjin glanced at her puffed-up expression, then took the revival medicine he had just found and used it to revive her.

His voice carried a smile: 'Who let you get distracted just now?'

"Is it my fault? It's not like I heard she got beaten and got scared."

"How could it be Youbao's fault?"

"That's about right."

Seeing she had revived, Mu Youyu picked up her phone again, slid her fingertips across the screen, and controlled the character to jump over the first trap.

Saying that, she suddenly paused, turned her head to look at Jiang Liangjin, her eyes hinting at curiosity.

She whispered: '... Did you really have someone make this?'

Jiang Liangjin's fingers swiped the screen: 'Yeah.'

Mu Youyu glanced around; Yu Ci and Gu Xingnan were still asleep, and besides Xia Chaoyi, there was hardly anyone else to hear them talk.

So she felt safe saying: 'Remember to clean up properly.'

"You don't trust me to handle things?"

"Don't worry, don't worry—A Jin's work is the most reassuring!"

Xia Chaoyi: '... Why are you ignoring me, waa waa waa.'

What are you whispering about.

Bai Yun heard the sound, crawled up from the desk and gave him a tap: 'Stop the waa-ing.'

Mu Youyu seemed to think of something and asked: 'Xiao Yun, want to go for dessert after class this afternoon? My best friend is treating.'

Jiang Liangjin had already guessed she would invite Bai Yun, after all this person counts as her first new friend she met in class.

Bai Yun's eyes lit up: 'Sure! Where to? Anyone else coming?'

"Cloud Realm Pavilion."

Mu Youyu looked at her and added: 'A Jin, my best friend and a few of her friends are going, so there won't be many people! If you have any friends you want to bring, feel free to invite them.'

She had invited Jiang Liangjin yesterday afternoon.

Bai Yun immediately shook her head: 'No need, no need, we're just the right number! I've wanted to try Cloud Realm Pavilion for a while! And it was recommended by my older brother.'

This shop just opened, but because the big celebrity Lu Yuchu came by.

So lately it's been fully booked; yesterday everyone's Moments were full of posts showing off checking in here!

She's a huge fan of Lu Yuchu, but hasn't had the chance to go yet!

Xia Chaoyi immediately leaned over, squinting and waggling his eyebrows, shouting: 'Sister Yu, can you bring me too?'

Bai Yun only then remembered him, her eyes sparkling as she asked Mu Youyu: 'Can he come? Can he come?'

Mu Youyu had no objection: 'Sure.'

She was about to start the next level when she glanced over and saw Yu Ci rubbing his eyes as he sat up, his forehead bangs messed up from being pressed.

He glanced at the few of them, his voice hoarse from just waking: 'What are you chatting about? So lively.'

"They're going to Cloud Realm Pavilion this afternoon."

Gu Xingnan had woken early, but was still slumped over the desk: 'They say it's a new shop opened by Lin Ning's family, and Chu Ge even went to check it in.'

Seeing both were awake and hearing her speak, Mu Youyu turned her head and asked: 'A Ci, A Nan, are you going?'

Xia Chaoyi leaned up to Yu Ci's face: 'Brother Ci, Brother Nan, are you going? Are you going?'

Yu Ci glanced at him, picked up the mask on the desk and put it on: 'Let's forget it; we two have plans this afternoon.'

He pulled out his phone to check the time: 'It's only 9:30, and I'm already hungry.'

He hasn't had breakfast yet today.

Let's go eat now.

Thinking that, he pulled Gu Xingnan up to stand: 'I and A Nan aren't going to class today, bye!'

Mu Youyu answered with a sound, then turned her head as the two walked out of the classroom.

Yu Ci didn't ask Jiang Liangjin, because he was sure he'd be with Mu Youyu.

Look, just now this person heard the two were leaving and didn't make a sound.

The last period of the afternoon was again a free practice class, and Mu Youyu didn't have much to pack up.

So she just sent Lin Ning a message: '【Lin Ning, I'm now bringing people out.】'

Lin Ning instantly replied: '【Okay, I'll come to the school gate to pick you up.】'

Mu Youyu put away her phone, reached out and poked Bai Yun on the front desk: 'Shall we head out first?'

Bai Yun and Xia Chaoyi have no objections.

Jiang Liangjin followed her.

Four people had just walked out of the teaching building when they saw Lin Ning leading Yu Anyi and Yan Yuan waving from the shade of a nearby tree.

"Youbao! Over here!" Lin Ning waved her arms, her face full of excitement.

"Ningning!"

Several people approached, Lin Ning took Bai Yun's hand first and smiled, "Is this Xiao Yu's new friend? She's really cute!"

Bai Yun looked at the several beauties of different temperaments, feeling embarrassed to reply: "Thank you, you're also very pretty."

Lin Ning then looked at Mu Youyu, "Yinyin has something today and didn't come!"

Mu Youyu nodded, "No wonder, she saw that these few people were together."

Yu Anyi stepped forward and affectionately linked arms with Mu Youyu, "Hey, Xiao Yu! Long time no see!"

Yan Yuan glanced at her, raised an eyebrow and said, "We just saw each other a few days ago."

Mu Youyu smiled and said, "An Yi, Yuan Yuan."

Yan Yuan returned the smile, her gaze lingered on Jiang Liangjin for a moment, showing slight surprise.

Isn't that Young Master Jiang?

Jiang Liangjin had always stood beside Mu Youyu, his presence strong, "Jiang Liangjin."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Lin Ning, tone flat: "Lin Ning."

This counts as a greeting.

"Since we've known each other for so long, don't be polite." Lin Ning waved her hand and flicked her pink hair.

Yu Anyi looked surprised, "When did Ningning get to know Young Master Jiang?!"

Moreover, Ningning never mentioned it before!

Could they be old family friends?

She put aside the thought and saw Lin Ning looking at Bai Yun and Xia Chaoyi, saying, "Hello, I'm Lin Ning, Youbao's best friend."

Bai Yun blinked, "Isn't that the young miss of the Lin family? One of the Five Campus Belles of Nan Feng next door?"

I never expected Xiao Yu's best friend to be Lin Ning!

She had thought they were from A City!

But she didn't show it on her face, "Hello, I'm Bai Yun, the 'Yun' from bamboo! Xiao Yu's friend."

Miss Bai Family?

"Hello hello, I'm Yu Anyi!"

Yu Anyi's eyes sparkled, "Hey, Bai Yun is really cute!"

Bai Yun, upon hearing another beauty praise her, this person being one of the Nan Feng Five Campus Belles, was overjoyed, "Thank you, you're even prettier!"

Mu Youyu looked at them amusedly, saying nothing.

Yan Yuan raised her brows, "Hello, I'm Yan Yuan."

Bai Yun: Alright, these girls are all from Lan Lin or Nan Feng as campus belles.

Xia Chaoyi saw the several girls acting like old friends meeting.

Just as he was about to say something, Yu Anyi looked at him and said, "Hey, this is also Xiao Yu's classmate, right?"

Bai Yun introduced, "This is my friend Xia Chaoyi."

Xia Chaoyi immediately straightened his back, revealing a hearty smile, "Hello, I'm Xia Chaoyi."

... Young Master of the Xia family?

Yan Yuan waved her hand.

Alright, besides her, others can get a number in C City.

"Such a handsome young man." Yu Anyi's eyes lit up.

Before Xia Chaoyi could react, Yan Yuan tapped Yu Anyi's head, "Are you looking at people like they're side dishes?"

"Eh, I don't drink alcohol."

"..."

Although it's still class time, people from both schools still come out.

"Holy crap, how did our Nan Feng campus belles end up together with the neighboring school?"

"Young Master Jiang's faded hair looks even better!"

"When these people stand together, their looks are off the charts!!!"

"Still, our Lan Lin new campus belle is the prettiest!"

"How did they meet?"

"Why is Miss Bai also here!"

"..."

Seeing that everyone now knew each other's names, Lin Ning took Mu Youyu's hand and walked toward the car parked by the road.

"We're all friends, no need to be formal! Come on, come on, the cars are ready."

The group split into two cars heading to Yun Jing Ge.
