Chapter 3 Received a jealous and twisted text message

I felt something gently stroking my cheek; it was a little itchy, something felt wrong.

Yue Yiyue frowned and waved his hand with some dissatisfaction, only to bump into a warm body and hear a sound in his ear.

After entering the school, she suddenly went black and lost consciousness. She rubbed her aching head and wondered how she had fallen asleep here.

My head hurts a little, ouch.

She should be attending an event with Gu Nanqiu now, and then going back.

Her mind was still filled with some inexplicable thoughts, which she didn't have time to sort out.

Because she felt the warmth under her hand and the even breath spreading around her ear.

After a light laugh, a clear and crisp female voice reached Yue Yiyue's ears: "Get up if you're awake. You can't sleep here, Yue."

Yue Yiyue's sluggish mind finally processed two pieces of information: first, the voice sounded familiar; second, the person knew her.

She rubbed her eyes and carefully climbed out of his arms. As she looked down, a stunningly beautiful face came into Yue Yiyue's view. For a moment, she panicked and didn't know where to put her hands.

Her long, straight black hair was casually draped over her shoulders, but she didn't look very well. Her face was pale, and her pretty lips were pink, like a bouncy jelly.

Her beautiful peach blossom eyes were particularly attractive to Yue Yiyue.

Seemingly noticing that someone was watching her, the person smiled, their eyes crinkling.

In that instant, Yue Yiyue seemed to smell a faint fragrance of osmanthus.

It's sweet.

Without even having to dig into his memory, Yue Yiyue immediately knew who the person in front of him was.

Gu Nanqiu.

Gu Nanqiu, loved by everyone.

In the summer, the weather was rather hot and humid. She was wearing a loose white T-shirt, jeans, and a pair of comfortable sneakers. Even with the simplest clothes, she exuded the same sense of style that Yue Yiyue had once seen on the LED screen.

Because of the overhead view, Yue Yiyue noticed that the person's collarbone was smooth and slender.

A tiny red mole sits on it, attracting attention just right.

"Why are you staring so intently?" a teasing voice rang out, but the voice trailed off, sounding strangely tender, like sweet nothings whispered between lovers.

Upon realizing this, Yue Yiyue jolted back a step and immediately bowed in apology: "I'm sorry, I was still half asleep! Are you alright?"

The boy smiled and raised his hand. Yue Yiyue subconsciously reached out and pulled him up, and then Gu Nanqiu hugged him tightly. The faint scent of osmanthus blossoms became even stronger.

And that soft body, so hot that Yue jumped back two steps.

"Long time no see, I missed you so much. You didn't even tell me about this vacation. They're still lying to me, saying you abandoned me." Gu Nanqiu took Yue Yiyue's hand in return, put her arm around her, and said affectionately, as if they were very close.

The overly intimate touch made Yue Yiyue feel a little uncomfortable. She tried to pull away, but her mind gave her a strong command: "Accept."

Her limbs instantly became obedient, and she was less resistant to intimate gestures.

Feeling somewhat awkward, Yue Yiyue listened to Gu Nanqiu talk for a while, but he had a question: were the two people in the book really that close?

"What are you spacing out for? You seem a bit strange today, what's wrong?" Gu Nanqiu turned her head to look at the dazed Yue Yiyue, her eyes filled with a hint of inquiry, but more so with worry.

"You seem a little absent-minded today, what's wrong?" Gu Nanqiu placed her hand on Yue Yiyue's forehead, touched it lightly and then quickly withdrew it: "You don't have a fever, did something happen?"

The buzzing of the phone interrupted Gu Nanqiu's confusion.

Both of their gazes fell on Yue Yiyue's pocket, and Gu Nanqiu consciously took a step back: "You go ahead and do your thing."

Yue Yiyue's feelings for Gu Nanqiu soared as she watched this action, but when she took out her phone and saw the message on it, her hands and feet instantly turned ice cold.

Why were you standing so close to her?

"You're cheating on me!"

"Baby, you can't do that!"

"Baby, tell this bug to stay away from you! Why? Why? Why???"

"She did it on purpose, she deliberately disgusted you, disgusted, disgusted, disgusted, disgusted, disgusted, disgusted baby, don't be fooled by this disgusting person, she's just trying to bewitch you! Disgusting."

"Baby, don't you want to go back? Be good, when the time is right, we'll send you back."

"What's wrong?" Gu Nanqiu's voice pulled Yue Yiyue back to reality. She tilted her head and blinked, asking curiously like a cunning little deer in a dense forest, "Are they urging us to go up again?"

The voice instantly pulled Yue Yiyue out of the dense text messages. She subconsciously turned off the volume and gave a forced smile: "Just spam."

"Let's go, we should go up too, we can't keep them waiting."

Along the way, Gu Nanqiu slowly and methodically talked about her future plans, such as whether she wanted to rent an apartment together in college, and whether she wanted to do volunteer work to experience it.

Yue Yiyue would reply occasionally, but her attention was mostly drawn to the dense text messages.

Since arriving here, I've been sending messages much more frequently.

Yue Yiyue was somewhat troubled.

But the sender of this text message seems to know how to get himself back...

Yue Yiyue thought he could just ignore it as always.

After all, if I ignore them, I can still... go back, right?

"Would you like to live with me after this? You're the only person I know in that city."

"Huh? Okay, sure, we'll talk about it later." Yue Yiyue didn't hear what the other person said clearly, but subconsciously nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then it's settled. Thank you, it's so good to see you back."

This sounded a bit strange, but Yue Yiyue's racing mind didn't dwell on it.

Looking down the long corridor, she asked in confusion, "Do we usually have to walk this far to get to the classroom?"

Although her memory was hazy, she vaguely remembered that her class was on the top floor of the fourth floor, which should have taken no more than eight minutes to get there, but today it seemed like it took a long time.

"Huh? Now that you mention it, it does seem a bit strange." Gu Nanqiu approached Yue Yiyue somewhat uneasily: "I heard them say there's a strange story at school during the holidays."

She lowered her voice as she spoke, and moved closer to Yue Yiyue, her warm hand holding his. Their delicate skin rubbed together, making Yue Yiyue feel a little uncomfortable.

For a moment, it felt as if something cold was wrapped around her hand, but when she looked down, all she saw was Gu Nanqiu's hand with the silver bracelet.

"Some people might accidentally enter the inner school, get lost here, and become food for ghosts and monsters."

Hearing this, Yue Yiyue breathed a sigh of relief, because this wasn't in the original book: "Perhaps it's just that we unconsciously slowed down because we were chatting?"

After saying that, Yue Yiyue looked up and pointed to the 4F sign: "Look, we're only on the fourth floor now, but it's okay. If you're scared, I can take you back later."

Wait……

Thinking about what happened next gave Yue Yiyue a headache.

These students don't seem to care about their lives; they dare to do this.

She had to find a way to escape before then.

Looking at Gu Nanqiu, who was a little taller than him but was leaning weakly against him, Yue Yiyue thought that he would take Gu Nanqiu with him when they ran away. With her protagonist aura, she would definitely be fine.

The others...

Others can try to persuade a few, but if they can't, there's nothing they can do but let her shed a few tears when they notify her parents.

After all, she was in dire straits herself, barely able to save herself.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have ended up in this place while delivering food, shrunk down, and even had to go to university.

"Alright, we're here." Seeing the familiar window, Yue Yiyue paused. Through the window, she saw figures standing and sitting inside. "This story was probably made up to prevent unauthorized people from staying at school. Don't be afraid, I'll protect you."

After he finished speaking, Yue Yiyue pushed open the door and looked at the two women and two men standing inside. A series of exclamations rose and fell.

"It's only been a few days of vacation, and I can hardly recognize anyone!" An exaggerated voice rang out, and an exaggerated girl with dyed red hair walked over casually, hooked her arm around Yue Yiyue, and squeezed between her and Gu Nanqiu: "Long time no see, you've finally come."

The exaggerated movements and striking hair color automatically brought the name Zhang Yang to mind.

"Wow, Gu Nanqiu, you really graced us with your presence! Today is our last meeting, I hope we can have a great time." The tall, burly male classmate in the shirt shoved the short boy next to him: "Zhao Heyi, hurry up and take out your good stuff to show everyone."

"You came with Gu Nanqiu? I'm so envious. By the way, how come you two went to the same school? I always thought you two got along well, but I didn't expect that." The girl with small eyes hadn't taken her gaze off Gu Nanqiu since she came in. She was clearly asking Yue Yiyue, but her eyes didn't spare a single glance for Yue Yiyue.

Only when Zhang Yang inadvertently touched Gu Nanqiu's clothes did he show a hint of disgust.

Zhang Yang naturally noticed it. She turned her head to look at the quiet, beautiful person standing there, and cast a provocative glance at the girl with small eyes: "Wang Xiaoyan, are you coming over here?"

"Don't just stand around the classroom door. Come in and close the door, or you'll get caught by the patrol and dragged inside." He said this in a deliberately low voice, trying to intimidate everyone.

“Wang Yong, you’re not scary at all—” Zhang Yang joked, then turned to look at Gu Nanqiu: “Come in, we’ve been waiting for you for so long, we thought you weren’t coming.”

Her tone was sweet and coquettish, as if she were pleading.

Despite being ignored, Yue Yiyue wisely lowered his profile, casually found a place to sit down, and propped himself up on his hands, watching the woman in the distance who was smiling as warmly as a spring breeze. As she answered her classmates' questions, she noticed Yue Yiyue's somewhat inquisitive gaze and quietly waved in that direction.

Unfortunately, Yue Yiyue's attention was drawn to a bird that suddenly jumped onto the windowsill from outside the door.

She turned her head and curiously glanced at the strangely shaped bird. It had a tuft of light blue feathers on its head and eyes like amethyst crystals. It didn't look like an ordinary bird, and she didn't know what kind it was.

She stared at it for a moment, then reached out to try and tease it, but the bird didn't react and just stood there blankly.

After a moment, Yue Yiyue found the silly little bird really boring, so he withdrew his gaze and continued to ponder the information he had just obtained.

She and Gu Nanqiu had a good relationship.

After that, I had to try my best to act as if I was getting along very well with Gu Nanqiu, so as not to arouse any suspicion that the person inside me had changed.

Try your best to maintain existing relationships, and then survive...

I remembered the only useful information in that jumbled text message: "If you behave yourself here, you can go back."

She will behave well, as long as she can take good care of Aunt Zhang.

The doubt that flashed through his mind was quickly put aside. His brain subconsciously avoided certain uncertainties, leaving only what Yue Yiyue cared about.

Noticing that the person's gaze was not on her, Gu Nanqiu lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment before casually withdrawing her hand.

He continued to answer everyone's questions slowly and deliberately, and asked them how their holiday was.

"I brought snacks to liven things up. What game are we playing today?"

Gu Nanqiu smiled brightly and asked in a friendly manner, but her gaze fell on Yue Yiyue, her classmate who had been staying out of the way and trying to minimize his presence, her eyes full of inquiry.

The people around them exchanged glances, their eyes fixed on the boy who was in the very center.

Making no attempt to hide the greed and possessiveness in their eyes, they exclaimed in unison, "A gift—"
