The sunlight was divided into even blocks of color by the window frames, and fell warmly on the table and the ground. The air was filled with fine dust, and even the low buzzing whispers in the classroom seemed exceptionally quiet.

Han Li nonchalantly twirled the pen between his fingers.

He raised his eyes, and his gaze naturally drifted to the other end of the classroom.

The young man lay on the table, deep in sleep, completely oblivious to the noise around him. Even the low voices of students talking and the noisy cicadas outside the window seemed to have no effect on him at all. He lay on the table calmly, as if his body was covered by an impenetrable transparent barrier that blocked out all the noise, like a big cat lying on its back sleeping without any worries.

It was totally different from when he was awake.

Han Li couldn't help but think back to when he was teaching Cheng Chen.

He was always so agile and cunning. No matter how hard he tried, he could never touch him at all and could only be thrown to the ground again and again.

The cold and sharp aura and the almost overwhelming strength and skill almost made it difficult for Han Li, who was standing opposite him, to breathe.

Han Li's gaze fell on his half-bent back, and his sight slid down along the deep indentation of the spine in a graceful curve, slowly sinking into the waist.

His eyes darkened slightly, his expression became more unpredictable, and an idea suddenly popped into his mind.

——Don't want him to be seen by anyone.

Han Li was startled by his own thoughts and came to his senses instantly. He lowered his eyelashes to cover up and stared at the pen that had stopped turning between his fingers.

My shoulders and legs burned where I had been touched yesterday.

It was as if the burning palm was still tightly pressed against his skin, and the roaring flames burned along the meridians and blood vessels into his bones and chest.

He tightened his fingers, his thin knuckles turned white due to the force, and his fingertips left faint marks on the pen.

stop.

Han Li said to his wildly beating heart.

——Stop.

Just then, the bell for the end of get out of class rang, and noisy and cheerful voices rose in the classroom.

The next class was physical education. Students stood up from their seats in groups of three or four and walked out of the classroom together.

Shen Kong was woken up.

He yawned, stretched in his seat, and then staggered out.

Han Li subconsciously stood up from his seat and called him, "Cheng Chen."

Shen Kong turned his head to look at him and made a lazy nasal sound: "Hmm?"

Han Li suppressed the movement in his heart and said, "Wait, I'll go with you."

Shen Kong raised his eyebrows and asked, "Isn't your leg an indefinite leave of absence? Do you still need to take physical education classes?"

Han Li's gaze paused for a second on his hair that was sticking up in all directions, and his face remained natural and frank: "Well, the classroom is also stuffy, I want to go out for some fresh air."

He walked towards Shen Kong and walked out of the classroom with him.

Ye Jinghuan, who was still sitting in his seat, slowed down his movements significantly, and stared at the backs of two people walking out of the classroom one after another in a daze.

His deskmate nudged him with his elbow and joked, "Come back to your senses, come back to your senses. Everyone has left, but you are still looking."

Ye Jinghuan was stunned, his fair face blushed imperceptibly, he withdrew his gaze from the outside of the classroom, and said stubbornly:

"Don't talk nonsense..."

My deskmate winked and said, "Don't lie to me. I've caught you peeking at Han Li for the sixth time this week. Tell me, do you have any ideas...?"

Ye Jinghuan's face flushed: "Shut up, it's better to memorize more words instead of thinking about it."

He put the neatly packed books on the table, hesitated for a moment, and asked:

"By the way...Han Li and Cheng Chen, are they on good terms?"

My deskmate shrugged. "It seems like they've only gotten better recently. They've both changed a lot. Cheng Chen used to be a nerd who only studies hard, but now he just sleeps all day. He's still quite withdrawn, but he seems to have become much more handsome. Han Li used to come to school once a week, which was considered a lot, but now he's been coming to school every day for almost two weeks. I've noticed that the teachers are a lot more restrained when teaching, which is interesting..."

Seeing that she was about to babble endlessly, Ye Jinghuan quickly interrupted her and begged for mercy:

"Okay, okay, I get it."

My deskmate asked teasingly, "Why, why are you asking this?"

Ye Jinghuan walked out of the classroom, blinked his honey-brown cat eyes, pursed his lips and said, "It's nothing, actually. I just accidentally touched someone's sore spot that time, and when I went to apologize to him, he got yelled at, so I've been a little concerned about it..."

He hesitated for a moment and continued:

"And... I don't know why, but I always feel like he gives me a strange sense of familiarity, and I can't help but want to pay attention to him."

As if trying to get rid of the strange thoughts in his mind, Ye Jinghuan shook his head and said as if explaining to himself:

"Maybe it has something to do with a strange dream I had..."

"A strange dream?"

"Maybe I was too tired during the day. I had almost forgotten everything when I woke up, but I vaguely remembered that it seemed to be related to Han Li..."

The two walked out of the classroom together, and the noise became quieter and quieter.

Xu Linsheng, who was standing by the door, walked out from the shadow of the corner with a gloomy face - after two weeks of getting along, he had begun to feel a strange affection for this exquisite, beautiful, lively and sunny transfer student. He heard exactly what Ye Jinghuan had just said, and the jealousy that grew in him gnawed at his heart like a poisonous snake.

If it was someone else, it would be fine, but he really didn't dare to touch Han Li... After all, Han Li was said to be backed by the Han family of City A. Compared with them, the Xu family was like an egg hitting a rock...

But, think about it, how can such a big family let their children go to such a remote place to study, so it may not be a misunderstanding...

Xu Linsheng gritted his teeth, took out his cell phone from his pocket, and sent a message to his uncle who was far away in City A:

"Uncle, I want you to help me check someone..."

·

It's sunny outside the classroom.

The huge playground seems to be full of vitality because of the youthful boys and girls.

Han Li was unable to follow the team due to a leg injury, so he sat alone in a seat beside the basketball court. His dark and cold eyes narrowed slightly as he looked into the playground calmly.

After the whole class ran around the playground twice, the physical education teacher let everyone go for free activities.

Chen Kong yawned lacking interest, then turned and walked towards Han Li.

He hadn't taken a few steps when he was stopped.

Shen Kong frowned and looked at the four bald men blocking his way, and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

The leader's face turned green.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Cheng Chen, why are you pretending? It's like you really don't know us."

Shen Kong was stunned for a moment, and carefully looked at the people in front of him. It took him a long time to finally realize: "Oh! It's you!"

These are the hooligans who blocked him at the school gate before but were chased away by Lin Ziyu!

His eyes swept across the smooth heads of those people, and his expression was a little subtle for a moment.

Shen Kong turned his head to look at the leader and asked sincerely: "What are you doing...?"

The cockscomb-headed man, who could no longer be called a cockscomb-headed man, looked even worse, and was obviously annoyed by Chen Kong's attitude. He stepped closer and roared viciously, "Don't fucking pretend you don't know. Didn't you ask Lin Ziyu to find someone to avenge us? Don't think that everything will be fine just because you're with Lin Ziyu. We..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Shen Kong's sudden burst of laughter.

He laughed breathlessly: "Hahahahahahahahaha so your hair was, haha ​​...

The cockscomb-headed man's face suddenly turned red, and he walked forward in anger and grabbed Shen Kong's collar. He clenched his other hand into a fist and was about to hit Shen Kong.

The smile on Shen Kong's face faded, and his slightly moist light brown eyes glanced down slightly, landing on his fist that was clutching his collar.

He whispered softly, "Haven't you learned your lesson yet?"

The cockscomb-haired man felt a chill on his back when he looked at him. The fingers that had been broken before seemed to hurt again, and he subconsciously loosened his hand.

Chen Kong reached out to wipe away the tears of laughter from the corners of his eyes, slowly straightened his wrinkled collar, and the expression on his face returned to the nonchalant look just now.

——This is still a school, and your behavior in front of your classmates should not be too different from before.

He was too lazy to have any more conflict with these bald guys, so he just said "excuse me" lightly and walked around them.

Han Li had already noticed the commotion here, and there was a hint of viciousness in his dark eyes - he had already told Lin Ziyu not to let this group of people cause trouble for Cheng Chen again, but in the end he still didn't handle it cleanly, which was simply more of a hindrance than a help.

He restrained the emotions in his eyes, limped to Shen Kong's side as quickly as possible, and asked with concern:

"Well, what happened?"

Shen Kong shrugged: "Nothing..."

Before he finished speaking, Han Li caught a glimpse of the cockscomb-headed man who was insulted in public, stepping on the football that had rolled to his feet in anger, and then maliciously aimed at the back of Shen Kong and kicked with all his strength -

The spinning black shadow approached rapidly.

Han Li didn't have time to think about it, and subconsciously raised his hand to block Shen Kong's head.

The next second, a piercing pain came from the back of his hand. Han Li clenched his teeth and couldn't help but groan.

Cockscomb was dumbfounded.

Shen Kong was stunned.

The air suddenly became quiet.
