Mu Yanran's eyes were sparkling as she said, "That summary was amazing! Where did you learn it from? Can you tell me, please?"
Shen Xueran's answer was simple, "I did it myself."
"It's just that during the days I stayed at home, I had nothing to do so I read my books to get rid of boredom."
"And I happened to learn these books, so I can do well in the upcoming exam."
Shen Xueran explained her situation to Mu Yanran so no one can suspect anything.
"Oh, so this is how it is going…" Mu Yanran mumbled while Shen Xueran was trying to hold back her laughter. Mu Yanran was a really cute one. She actually believed what Shen Xueran said to her without a second thought.
Since she won't go after the Male Lead, it's ok if she befriended the Female Lead. She continued to see as the class was going on.
It was lunch time when she finally had a break. So Shen Xueran headed towards the cafeteria. The area was already full with students when she entered. After buying her food, she sat in a corner, thinking of enjoying the food peacefully.
But her happiness didn't last for long as a hand fell on her back, " So you actually had the guts to come back to school again?"
Shen Xueran looked back at the guy indifferently as she said, "Yeah, so?"
"Looks like you haven't learned your lesson yet, Shen Xueran. Do you need another beating? Tell me, I'll gladly do it," he made a fist, ready to hit and fight with her again.
The person who was speaking and throwing tantrums right now was the one who beat up Shen Xueran, Qiao Jin from the Qiao family, one of the most popular guys in her class. He was quite popular among girls, too.
He was also the friend of the Male Lead Fu Jinyan. Because Shen Xueran chased after Fu Jinyan, Qiao Jin beat him frequently and no one stopped him that time.
"If you are looking for a scapegoat to beat up and vent your anger, then go somewhere else to find it. I recovered recently and also not chasing after Young Master Fu, so I don't think there's a reason for us to fight each other."
This made Qiao Jin feel slightly embarrassed, because every time he beat up Shen Xueran was not because he was chasing after his best friend, but sometimes he also needed to vent his anger on someone as well. So he went to find Shen Xueran and beat him up with an execuse of annoying Fu Jinyan.
Although Fu Jinyan told him many times not to beat him abruptly like that, still he continued to take advantage of this situation. And even when Shen Xueran didn't disturb them, he would go to find him and beat him up anytime.
"Also, thanks to Young Master Qiao, I was able to understand my situation. I'll not chase after anyone anymore, I want to focus on my studies. Young Master Qiao is generous, so he will leave me alone, right?" Shen Xueran smiled at him.
Her smile was like a blooming flower, alluring and seductive. This left Qiao Jin in a daze.
"You, you! I'll see you later. Just you wait, Shen Xueran!" Qiao Jin felt flustered after looking at him smiling. He left the cafeteria hurriedly.
This is the first time both of them met and did not get into a fight. So the students were very surprised and confused.
"Wow. This is the first time they came across each other and didn't fight, did anyone notice?"
"What's so good about it? If he goes running after Young Master Fu again, Qiao Jin won't let him off anymore."
"That's right. He actually dares to go run after Young Master Fu. Serves him right."
"See, someday someone will beat him to death if he doesn't change now."
Hearing this, Shen Xueran's eyes went cold .
'The person you are talking about has already died a week ago!'
She raised her head and said coldly, "It doesn't matter whether I die or not, but if you say one more word, I will make sure to haunt you down after I die and become a ghost."
The girl, "..."
Uwahhhh, That was so scaryyyy!
After that, Shen Xueran didn't pay any attention to the rumors that were going around her anymore. She simply put a random book in front of her and started to listen to music through her earphones.
***
At the lunchtime,
Mu Yanran came and sat down by her side directly.
"I can sit here, right?" she asked him with expectant eyes.
"School property, there is nothing wrong with wherever you seat," Shen Xueran answered without lifting her head and continued to eat.
'That means I can sit!' Mu Yanran secretly joyed as she sat down on her side smiling happily and started to eat.
Mu Yanran had taken a liking to Shen Xueran from the very first time since they became deskmates.
She always tried to befriend him, talk to him. It can also be called being a huge fangirl, but no matter what she did, she was not able to get his attention. For her, this experience was very frustrating.
But Shen Xueran always distanced himself from the girls that approached her. He also didn't have any friends, he always lived alone in the class always sitting in a corner, or wherever he goes. So Mu Yanran didn't have a chance to get close to him.
When the rumors spread out that he actually liked boys, she didn't believe in this nonsense.
But when she found out that Shen Xueran actually liked Fu Jinyan, she went mad.
To vent her anger, Mu Yanran tried to make Shen Xueran jealous by pretending to be Fu Jinyan's girlfriend, but Shen Xueran didn't even buzz. But the situation turned upside down when she found out Shen Xueran became jealous of her and started to avoid her.
