Chapter Forty-Seven: Something's Wrong with Gantang

"Su Xun, can you teach me this problem?" Zhou Beibei poked Su Xun's arm. "I've been working on this for a long time, but I still can't figure it out."

Even during breaks between evening self-study sessions, few people move around; most are sitting and studying.

Su Xun was also working on a physics problem, but after spending more than ten minutes on it, he couldn't solve it and simply gave up.

He then turned around, looked at the question, and realized he knew the answer, so he picked up his pen and patiently explained the solution to her.

Zhou Beibei understood immediately and followed the instructions.

"I got it! Su Xun, you're amazing!" This was followed by a big hug.

Su Xun was suddenly pounced on, and caught off guard, he had to lean back to steady himself.

The person continued, "I might have to trouble you a lot to sit next to me in the future. I really want to sit next to the top student."

Su Xun found it amusing and gently pushed the person back to their seat.

"Okay, if you ever have any questions in the future, just come and ask me."

"Su Xun, you're so kind."

Zhou Beibei wanted to pounce on him again, but Su Xun stopped her.

Su Xun used to not talk much to her classmates, and everyone thought she was too quiet and was too embarrassed to go and play with her. But recently, after sitting next to Su Xun, she found that Su Xun had a very nice personality, which made her want to get closer to her.

Su Xun thought Zhou Beibei was great in every way, except that she was too clingy and liked to hug people when she got excited, but her personality was really cute.

She thought about it with a headache.

However, Zhou Beibei's subconscious dependence on her just now made her pause for a moment.

She was just as dependent on Pei Ke, always turning to him for help with problems she couldn't solve, as if he would never refuse her.

She glanced instinctively to her left, and even across two large groups, she could still spot the figure instantly. The boy sat upright, his back ramrod straight even while reading, and his white school uniform gave him a unique look.

At this moment, Gan Tang, who was sitting in front, was suddenly called to the teacher's office. He put down his pen and left the classroom.

"Su Xun, have you noticed that the goddess is acting a little strange lately?" Zhou Beibei suddenly leaned over and carefully asked in Su Xun's ear.

Gantang?

He shook his head subconsciously.

Although she was sitting right behind Gantang, the two of them weren't really close.

Seeing Su Xun's reaction, Zhou Beibei seemed to suddenly become interested and tugged at Su Xun's clothes to bring her closer.

Zhou Beibei: "I heard from some friends that Gan Tang broke up with someone again."

Su Xun: "Is there anything strange about that?" Realizing her mistake immediately, she quickly explained, "That's not what I meant, it's just..."

Su Xun didn't continue speaking. Ever since Gan Tang announced her relationship, she seemed to be under some kind of spell, changing boyfriends one after another, with varying durations of each relationship.

At first, everyone was surprised and discussed it privately, mostly making sarcastic and unfriendly remarks about Gan Tang. Later, perhaps because they got used to it, the discussions subsided considerably, but Gan Tang's reputation did indeed suffer a great deal.

Su Xun had heard some rumors before, so he had a general understanding of the matter.

Zhou Beibei ignored what Su Xun meant and continued, "The problem is that it's been almost a month since her breakup, and there's still no sign of anything happening."

Su Xun didn't understand what the "movement" meant at first, but then he suddenly realized it.

Gan Tang never broke up with anyone, but she would accept another guy within a week.

This has been going on for a month now, which is definitely "abnormal".

However, Su Xun didn't want to gossip about other people's private affairs. He calmly took the clothes from Zhou Beibei's hand and said indifferently, "Is that so? I'm not really sure either."

Seeing Su Xun's obvious distancing and unwillingness to continue the topic, Zhou Beibei also felt awkward and turned away.

Just then, the class bell rang, and the two picked up their pens again and got back to studying, which eased the temporary awkwardness.
