Although she didn't manage to "invite" Yan Can, Leng Shan's mood wasn't affected, and she still led a group of people to go hiking.

However, the result was not as satisfactory as expected.

Leng Shan posted on her WeChat Moments almost every hour, and afterwards she posted dozens of photos in the class group, ranging from classmates to flowers and plants.

Others, however, were the complete opposite of her.

Even the sports committee member, who usually posts a status to commemorate his "powerful" farts, surprisingly didn't post a single photo this time, and didn't even say a word in the group chat.

Yan Can could roughly guess what had happened.

Two days later, Xu Wei called Yan Can.

"Hey genius, what are you doing?" she asked.

Yan Can quickly wrote down the answers, put down her pen, and said to her, "I just finished a test paper."

Xu Wei glanced at the time and couldn't help but grit her teeth. "If I'm not mistaken, it's only seven in the morning. You finished a test paper so early? Is it really necessary to be so demanding?"

Yan Can said, "I woke up early and had nothing to do, so I did some homework."

Xu Wei: "..."

Is this human language?

If you wake up early, how can you have nothing to do?

Is your phone not attractive enough? Is your computer not fun enough? Or is it that you don't sleep well during your nap?

Every time she resolved to catch up with the academic genius, reality would give her a rude awakening, making her acutely aware of the gap between herself and the genius, thus extinguishing her ambition to surpass him.

Why!

She sighed, then had a sudden inspiration, "Would you like to see my schedule during my vacation?"

Before Yan Can could reply, she had already taken a picture and sent it over.

The requirement of "going to bed before 1 a.m." alone made Yan Can almost lose her composure.

"What have you been doing, staying up so late?"

Xu Wei said, "Is it too late? Every time the results are announced, everyone will discuss whether you are secretly studying. Otherwise, how could you always get first place in the grade even though you don't pay much attention in class?"

But she knew it was impossible.

Once, during a competition, she was in the same group as Yan Can. They stayed at a hotel owned by Yan Can's mother's company. Just after 10:30 p.m., the hotel manager came up to urge them to go to bed early.

She was so nervous she couldn't sleep, and Yan Can was talking to her when President Gu called.

Without a doubt, it's still about getting someone to sleep.

We've gone off-topic!

Xu Wei reminded Yan Can, "I posted this schedule to show you my colorful holiday life, like getting up at ten to go shopping, watching movies in the afternoon, and singing karaoke at night... Why are you only focusing on my sleep time?"

He paused for a moment, then said, "But none of that matters. The main point today isn't the schedule."

She asked Yan Can if he had contacted Ling Yu and Leng Shan in the past two days.

After hearing the answer, she said, "I guessed so. It's only been two days, they're probably too embarrassed to contact you... You've also checked the group messages, do you guess what happened?"

Yan Can: "Mm."

Xu Wei sighed again, "You're too calm. I'm starting to wonder if you're a bot."

Yan Can: "The human-machine interface isn't as smart as me."

Xu Wei was taken aback for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

After a long while, she finally stopped laughing. "I feel sorry for them. Lingling said that after leaving your house, no one wanted to go anymore. But as soon as someone suggested leaving, Leng Shan interrupted them on the grounds that it would be a 'disappointment,' so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and go hiking."

But the disappointment was just the beginning; the worst was yet to come.

They didn't carry much, but Leng Shan's gear filled an entire trunk. Ling Yu suggested that the driver or the scenic area staff take it up so that everyone could save some energy climbing the mountain, but Leng Shan disagreed.

She said that climbing mountains is all about capturing a certain feeling or atmosphere!

If you let others do everything for you, what's the point of climbing a mountain? You might as well have someone else do it for you too!

The students: "..."

The problem is, aren't you the one who insists on climbing the mountain?

You brought five or six sets of clothes just for taking photos, while everyone else had less stuff than you alone. And you didn't ask anyone to help you carry your luggage. In the end, all that stuff will have to be shared among the other people.

At this point, Leng Shan said something else: "We are all part of a group, so we should help each other."

The students: "..."

Mutual help and support?

Isn't it possible for everyone to help one person?

Xu Wei said, "In short, the whole thing was very unpleasant from the very beginning because of the luggage issue."

Everyone was still holding back at this point, but after climbing for a short while, Miss Leng's princess syndrome kicked in. Not only did she boss them around and treat her classmates like servants, but she also kept making sarcastic and subtle accusations against Yan Can and the Yan family.

Someone couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up, then Leng Shan launched into a tirade about the other person's family background, managing to make a sensitive boy, who had grown up living with relatives due to his parents' divorce, cry.

Ling Yu, the only one who could control Leng Shan, chose to let her be.

Yan Can: "He didn't even do any vanity work?"

According to Ling Yu's character, regardless of whether she thinks Leng Shan is right in her heart, she will at least restrain Leng Shan's behavior on the surface.

Xu Wei shook her head. "No."

Not only are there no restrictions, but everyone is also asked to be more tolerant!

How presumptuous of me!

Who does Leng Shan think she is to everyone that they should tolerate her unreasonable behavior?

The listener wasn't angry, but the speaker was already furious.

"I didn't say anything before because you two were on good terms, but now that you've distanced yourself from them, I just have to get it off my chest. You won't think I'm being nosy, will you?"

"Won't."

"Then I'll tell you!"

Once assured, Xu Wei opened up and recounted the events of the previous semester, highlighting several incidents where Leng Shan caused trouble and Yan Can was blamed for cleaning up the mess.

If her mother hadn't called her to eat breakfast, she probably would have talked all day.

Xu Wei had just hung up the phone when Ling Yu called.

Yan Can answered the call.

Ling Yu said, "Yan Can, you're finally willing to answer the phone."

Yan Can: "Get to the point, otherwise I'm blocking you."

Ling Yu: "..."

He was so speechless that he didn't know what to say for a long time.

Only after Yan Can said "I'm hanging up" did he quickly speak up, "Don't hang up yet, did you see the photos in the group chat?"

Yan Can: "What are you trying to say?"

Ling Yu said, "The photos are all an illusion. Shan Shan is just smiling happily in front of the camera, but she is actually very sad inside. She has realized her mistake and knows that she shouldn't have treated you that way, but she is too embarrassed to tell you."

Yan Can: "Oh."

Ling Yu: "..."

Does this mean they believed it or not?

He selected a few moments from the photo, saying that Leng Shan's smile was forced when Yan Can wasn't around, which shows how important Yan Can is to Leng Shan!

Yan Can: "Really?"

Ling Yu: "You know, she's just a child at heart, she doesn't have any bad intentions, and she doesn't hold grudges..."

Yan Can: "She doesn't hold grudges, but I do."
