Chapter 102: I have someone in my heart, don't come near me

The commotion in the classroom continued.

Shen Li lowered her eyelids, masking all her emotions, and took a step to walk slowly into the classroom.

Zhou Mingyu was the first to see Shen Li. He quickly tried to shut his mouth, terrified of letting out any more brainless words.

Xu Zhouyuan, who was confused by this action, hadn't had time to resist when he saw Shen Li at the back door of the classroom.

His eyes widened instantly.

Holy crap, when did she get here?

As soon as she appeared, the surrounding voices seemed to quiet down immediately.

Shen Li felt as if many pairs of eyes were looking at her, which made her feel uncomfortable for a moment.

Before, when she came to class, few people greeted her, and her presence wasn't very high.

This time... she didn't understand why these people were all looking at her.

Being sick was already miserable enough, and she was too lazy to care.

She sat down near the back door, put her bag in the desk, and picked up her cup, preparing to go to the water room to get water.

Just then, Xie Qin, who was sitting in the last seat of the classroom, patted the table, put down his long legs, and stood up. The whole person was idle and lazy, speaking word by word: "I want to solemnly clarify one point here: I am still single. What she just said is purely fucking nonsense, spreading rumors about me."

Bai Chuyue, who was still standing on the podium, turned pale instantly, because being slapped in the face in public made her unable to step down.

Xie Qin continued, his tone annoying: "In the future, no matter who it is, can you have some self-awareness? If you're ugly, study more; why are you learning to date? Is it your turn to claim ownership?"

"I have someone in my heart, don't come near me."

"Thank you."

Yo, quite polite.

Zhou Mingyu clicked his tongue several times, looking at another seat with a malicious smile: "Oh my, he has someone in his heart, who could it be! So hard to guess!"

"If it really doesn't work, let's just name names and tell the whole world."

Xu Zhouyuan: "Exactly, save us from being harassed and implicated by you all day long."

Shen Li sat in her seat, holding her water cup, her thoughts sinking slightly. Xie Qin just said he had someone he liked.

Who is it?

Is it me?

Suddenly guessing it might be her, she felt a sense of unreality, but the moment she thought of it, Shen Li's heart seemed to beat a little faster.

But... during this time, her interaction with Xie Qin had been one of him ignoring her, and her mood quickly sank again.

It was probably her being wishful.

But at least she knew Xie Qin wasn't with her.

Shen Li couldn't describe her current feelings; they were a bit messy. She stood up, took her water cup, walked out of the classroom, and went to the water room to get hot water.

When she returned after getting the hot water, that girl was no longer in the classroom.

At the classroom door, Shen Li subconsciously looked in Xie Qin's direction. He was resting his head on his hand, chatting with Zhou Mingyu beside him. He looked over, and their eyes met.

There was only one class in the morning.

He slumped on the desk and slept for the whole class. By the last fifteen minutes, when it was almost time for lunch, Shen Li had been distracted during this time, her thoughts not focused, and she didn't listen to much of what the teacher on the podium was saying.

She was still thinking about whether she should eat something at noon.

In a daze, someone appeared beside her. Xie Qin probably hadn't woken up yet, his bangs messy, but he was still very handsome. That familiar, cold, cedar scent enveloped her.

Shen Li looked at him, not knowing what reaction she should have, her eyelids trembling as she withdrew her gaze.

Xie Qin rested his head on his hand and said lazily: "What are you being awkward about? Want to bully me with campus cold violence again?"

He was starting again.

Shen Li moved away from his gaze, her tone flat: "No."

Separated by two groups of seats.

Xu Zhouyuan pulled Qiao Lang up, sat down himself, and demanded a debt from him: "Pay up quickly, what did I say? I knew this kid wouldn't be able to hold out for more than three days."

Zhou Mingyu wanted to welch on the debt: "Fuck, this counts too!"

Xu Zhouyuan: "Still want to welch? Are you paying or not? If you don't, I'm grabbing it."

Zhou Mingyu conceded, using his phone to scan a thousand yuan to him: "Bad luck, bad luck to the core."

Xu Zhouyuan received the money, laughing while patting his shoulder: "No way, I just know him too well. From junior high until now, with our relationship, how could I not know his character!"

"Losing to me, isn't that expected!"

Just a while ago, Xu Zhouyuan and Zhou Mingyu made a private bet on who would be the first to lose patience and talk to the other between Xie Qin and Shen Li.

And look... Bai Chuyue had chased Xie Qin to this extent.

The guy didn't even give her a glance.

As soon as Xu Zhouyuan received the money, he happily went to find Zhang Zixin: "Wife, someone is spreading wealth today, giving us a thousand yuan for free. Husband will take you out for a meal in a bit."

Zhang Zixin looked in the mirror, applying colored lip balm. The weather was too dry recently, and her lips were peeling. She pursed them: "Sure! Call Shen Li along."

Xu Zhouyuan heard her humming a tune: "Wife, you seem to be in a good mood today!"

"It's alright."

She actually didn't like Bai Chuyue very much. If it weren't for her good relationship with Xie Qin, she wouldn't want to give her a good face. Last time, she deliberately brought Xie Qin along to ignore Shen Li.

If Xu Zhouyuan hadn't stopped her, she would have wanted to leave long ago.

Shen Li was a bit dull and didn't like to talk much, but once you found a way to get along with her, it was quite pleasant.

She also spoke very uniquely. After she left, who else would tell her cold jokes with such a straight face?

"No?" Xie Qin curled his lips and smiled, nodding slowly: "Alright, let's go eat together in a bit. This time, I won't let you split the bill."

Shen Li shook her head: "I'm still sick and haven't recovered, there's a lot I can't eat. You guys go ahead."

If she went, she was afraid of being a buzzkill.

He clicked his tongue, his tone sounding dissatisfied: "Are you planning to draw a line with me, not even being friends? I've been so humble and condescending to come to you, right!"

"Not giving me any face at all?"

This tone, plus the pitch of his voice, implied that she wasn't giving the school boss face, "not knowing what's good for you."

"You, you're quite heartless, refusing people so thoroughly."

Shen Li: "..."

She...

Heartless?

Just because she didn't go to eat with him?

Thinking about the atmosphere of the last meal, she didn't have any topics to talk about in his circle of friends. Sometimes they spoke in dialects she couldn't understand, and she couldn't adapt even if she went.

She thought it was better to refuse.

"Still no, my living expenses aren't enough lately, you guys go."

Eating with them was too expensive, and her wallet couldn't afford it.

If Xie Qin always treated, it didn't make sense, and she didn't like owing others. He said she didn't need to pay, but Shen Li felt she still should.

"... Not enough money? Didn't your boyfriend give you any?"

"So stingy, just break up with him." ===== CHAPTER 103 =====
