Chapter 4

"Zhang Peng, what are you saying, what did I do to her?"

Xu Ying glared back unconvinced.

"Hehe!"

Zhang Peng sneered, raised his right arm to gesture, and mocked:

"Your words are small, but your arms are really long enough. Not to mention occupying Qin Tian's seat, you directly occupied half of Xia Nuannuan's desk. Are you chatting, or are you deliberately bullying people?"

Hearing this, everyone suddenly understood in their hearts.

Xia Nuannuan looked at Qin Tian with surprised eyes, and while feeling moved, she suddenly felt a bit sour in her nose.

It was like a bullied child finally getting protection from a relative, and all the grievances suddenly surged up.

"You're farting, I didn't!"

Xu Ying, who was directly called out, had a somewhat hysterical expression on her face, roaring at Zhang Peng:

"When did I bully her, did I touch her, did I say a word to her? Zhang Peng, stop farting here, you're slandering people!"

Speaking of this, her voice even carried a hint of crying.

"If you don't believe me, ask Qiu Man and Cui Ying, ask them, did I bully Xia Nuannuan?"

Hearing this, everyone's gaze immediately fell on the two girls in the front row of Qin Tian.

The two girls had a good relationship with Xu Ying, so naturally, they were on her side, hurriedly shaking their heads to deny it.

"Didn't bully her, we were just chatting."

"Yeah, yeah, what is this!"

"Hehe, whether you did or not, you know in your own hearts."

Zhang Peng smiled with disdain.

"Alright, alright, enough, stop talking!"

Mu Nan suddenly shouted.

She still had a lot of say in the class, and everyone immediately quieted down.

"Qin Tian, apologize to Xu Ying!"

Mu Nan requested, looking at Qin Tian.

"Impossible!"

Qin Tian refused without hesitation.

"Qin Tian..."

"Class monitor, you don't need to say anything."

Qin Tian raised his hand to interrupt her, and said with reason and evidence: "Not to mention anything else, this is my seat, I've already returned, I've asked her several times to return the seat to me, and she didn't agree, so I had to do it myself, there's nothing wrong with that, right?"

"This..."

Mu Nan's head grew big instantly.

There was indeed nothing wrong with what he said, but you directly grabbed a girl like a little chick, isn't that a bit too rough?

Xu Ying, who was beside her, was even more furious when she heard this, her face turning purple.

But she couldn't find any loopholes in Qin Tian's words.

Therefore, she naturally turned her target to Xia Nuannuan.

"Qin Tian, you're defending Xia Nuannuan so much, you don't have a crush on her, do you?"

Xu Ying asked with a sneer.

As soon as these words came out, the classroom instantly quieted down.

Everyone was dumbfounded, and their disbelieving gazes looked at Qin Tian in unison.

Xia Nuannuan was also stunned for a moment.

After recovering, her chubby face instantly flushed red, and she anxiously opened her mouth to refute:

"No, it's not like that..."

"That's right!"

Qin Tian's calm voice directly interrupted her.

Xia Nuannuan's beautiful eyes were wide open, and like a robot, she stiffly turned her head to look at Qin Tian.

The classroom was even quieter.

It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

"That's right, I like her, so what? Is that not allowed?"

Qin Tian asked back with an expressionless face.

"You... she..."

Xu Ying was speechless for a moment, her shocked gaze scanning the two faces, and then she suddenly burst into laughter:

"Hahaha... I knew it, Qin Tian, you really have an eye for things, haha..."

"You really got that right, my taste has always been good, whoever could take a fancy to you must be blind."

Qin Tian sneered.

"You—"

Xu Ying was again so angry that she couldn't speak.

At this time, the substitute teacher for the next English class walked into the classroom.

The English teacher, Liu Xu, was a woman in her early thirties with a good appearance.

"What... is going on?"

Noticing that the atmosphere in the classroom was wrong, she looked at the direction of Qin Tian and the others, and asked with a surprised expression.

"Teacher Liu, Qin Tian laid hands on me."

Xu Ying pointed at Qin Tian and directly reported him.

Beside her, Mu Nan's eyes twitched, and she felt a bit more disgust toward Xu Ying in her heart.

As a class monitor, she had the responsibility to coordinate the relationships between students in the class.

Xu Ying's sudden reporting would make her look useless.

"Class monitor, what's going on?"

Liu Xu glanced at Qin Tian and asked Mu Nan.

"Teacher Liu, it's just some small conflicts."

Mu Nan smiled and briefly explained the matter.

After Liu Xu finished listening, the expression on her face also became a bit complicated.

After all, Qin Tian didn't really hit anyone, so it was better to make big things small and small things disappear.

And she also understood that it was actually Xu Ying who was wrong first, and Qin Tian was just defending his deskmate.

"Qin Tian, Xu Ying is a girl after all, you can't do this again in the future."

Liu Xu feigned a serious expression and criticized him verbally.

"Got it!"

Qin Tian nodded and agreed.

"Alright, alright, everyone back to your seats, class is about to start."

Liu Xu clapped her hands and smiled, changing the subject.

"Teacher Liu..."

Xu Ying still wanted to pester.

"Student Xu Ying, go back to your seat first, you both have things you did wrong."

Liu Xu said sternly.

Xu Ying gritted her teeth, turned her head and glared fiercely at Qin Tian, and returned to her seat full of unwillingness.

Before long, the bell rang for class.

This disturbance just subsided like this.

But the mood of the students in the class could not be calm for a long time.

It wasn't because of the argument between Qin Tian and Xu Ying, but because of Qin Tian's domineering response and his public confession.

Most of the students in the class were already adults and were about to graduate from high school.

They didn't have much avoidance of things like falling in love.

In fact, there were one or two underground couples in every class.

However, that was Xia Nuannuan, the chubby girl in the class who had no presence and was like a marginal figure.

While everyone was shocked, they were also confused about whether Qin Tian was defending Xia Nuannuan or if he was speaking from the heart.

Most of the students thought it was the former.

Including Xia Nuannuan herself.

After recovering from the shock, she also thought that Qin Tian said that deliberately to defend her.

Even so, her heart was still pounding like a little deer, and she was too shy to look at Qin Tian beside her.

From childhood to adulthood, this was the first boy who said he liked her.

And it was in front of so many people, such a domineering and direct confession.

Even if it was fake, she couldn't help but feel moved.

The Qin Tian just now was like the prince who descended on a white horse in a fairy tale in her eyes, so handsome, so dazzling.

Subconsciously, she picked up the water on the desk, unscrewed the cap, and took a sip to moisten her hot and dry throat.

She stared at the water in her hand.

That was the green tea Qin Tian had just given her.

The drink, which was originally only slightly sweet, seemed to have honey added to it, sweetening all the way to her heart along her throat.
