notes

After a brief eye contact, Lin Yuan turned her head away and resumed her studies. Nangong Ye looked at her, hesitated, and finally turned away helplessly.

In this inexplicable and awkward atmosphere, Xu Feifei, who was sandwiched between the two, was fast asleep, occasionally letting out a silly laugh.

The sound was very soft, but Lin Yuan still caught it. Seeing that she was still asleep and hadn't been woken up, the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up.

Xu Feifei slept until class started, and when she opened her eyes, she saw the teacher had just arrived in the classroom.

"How are you?" Lin Yuan asked, looking at her after she woke up.

Xu Feifei yawned and mumbled, "Oh no! I feel even more sleepy after a nap!"

Lin Yuan frowned slightly as she looked at her and asked, "What time did you go to sleep last night?"

Xu Feifei was still not fully recovered. "It's past one in the morning..."

He realized his mistake as soon as he said it, and quickly corrected himself, saying, "No, I'll go back, wash up, and go to sleep."

Lin Yuan immediately understood, her face showing slight anger.

Seeing this, Xu Feifei defended herself again, saying, "Really, you believe me!" She opened her big, bright eyes and looked at her "innocently."

Lin Yuan remained silent, continuing to do her homework with a calm expression. Xu Feifei, startled, lowered her head guiltily, staring at her workbook.

A while later, she secretly glanced at Lin Yuan and saw that she was still focused on her homework and didn't seem to want to talk to her. She pouted a little in grievance and listened quietly to the teacher's lecture.

After class, Xu Feifei couldn't help but obediently confess to Lin Yuan, admitting her mistake: "I went to bed after 1 a.m. yesterday. I was so tired after finishing my homework that I wanted to relax by watching some videos. I even made a rule that I would turn off my computer and go to bed at 11:40 p.m., but I accidentally watched too much..."

As she spoke, her head drooped lower and lower. Her bangs slipped down her forehead, and her downcast eyes made her look pitiful.

Looking at her pitiful state, Lin Yuan reached out and pressed her forehead, gently pushing her to lift her head. "Don't let this happen again!"

Xu Feifei's eyes lit up when she saw that she had been forgiven, and she laughed, "Definitely! Hahaha!"

"Feifei!"

Someone was calling from the back door of the classroom. Xu Feifei turned around and saw Zhang Jiayi standing there looking at her, beckoning her over.

A small commotion arose in the classroom again. Xu Feifei stood up, puzzled, and walked towards the back door. Lin Yuan remained in her seat, her hands clenched into fists, looking at Zhang Jiayi with displeasure.

When Zhang Jiayi saw her come out, he was very happy and said, "Feifei, can I treat you to dinner today?"

"You rejected me at the last game, and I thought about it for a long time but still couldn't understand it. So I'd like to invite you to dinner again, is that alright?"

Xu Feifei looked somewhat embarrassed, glancing around and noticing everyone staring in her direction. She was experiencing that awkward, Friday-like social scene again.

Seeing Xu Feifei's troubled expression, Zhang Jiayi said hopefully, "Is today inconvenient? How about Wednesday evening? I've seen your class schedule; Wednesday's classes are less demanding."

Xu Feifei gave a vague reply: "Um...uh...it should be okay."

Zhang Jia smiled and said, "Then Wednesday night will be it!"

As soon as he said that, Xu Feifei felt like she was being pricked by thorns, with eyes staring intently at her from behind.

Despite the intense hostility, Xu Feifei nodded stiffly and agreed.

Just then, the bell rang for class. Each lost in their own thoughts, the two returned to their respective classrooms.

Xu Feifei pretended not to be afraid of other people's gazes, calmly returned to her seat, and waited for the teacher to arrive with one hand supporting her cheek.

The teacher hadn't arrived yet, but the male protagonist had.

Nangong Ye walked lazily to her side, as if bestowing a favor, and said, "Xu Feifei, you've successfully caught my attention. Using Zhang Jiayi to provoke me, how about this, I'll be waiting for you and Lin Yuan on the fifth floor of the restaurant on Wednesday night."

The male protagonist's actions successfully brought the atmosphere in the class to a climax. Everyone around was talking about it.

Xu Feifei was inwardly choked with tears and cried out, "Male lead! Don't add fuel to the fire now, I'm scared!"

He forced a smile and said, "I have plans for Wednesday night, you'd better find someone else!"

Xu Feifei glanced unintentionally at the female lead and saw that she was looking down, holding a pen, and not moving for a long time, with her eyes seemingly looking in her direction.

Nangong Ye raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. He then said, "Lin Yuan, let's go together. My treat!"

After hearing these words, Xu Feifei looked towards Lin Yuan, while Zeng Hao watched the situation with considerable tension.

For some reason, I have a feeling this place is about to descend into complete chaos!

"I'm not going!"

Xu Feifei glanced at Lin Yuan, then at the male lead, then at the female lead, and finally at Zeng Hao. Her little head darted back and forth between the four, showing considerable interest. Before she could get her fill of looking, Nangong Ye grabbed her head, saying, "What are you looking at? Your head's practically spinning like a top!"

Xu Feifei was instantly like a snake caught in its vital spot. Feeling guilty, she deflated and shook her head.

Lin Yuan pushed Nangong Ye's hand away, "Don't touch me like that!"

A soft gasp rippled through the classroom. Even with her head down, Xu Feifei knew everyone was looking her way, so she lowered her head even further.

Nangong Ye rubbed his reddened hand, and surprisingly felt happy, saying, "Ah..."

"Gong Ye, it's time for class now, hurry back to your seat!" the homeroom teacher called out from the doorway.

Nangong Ye was interrupted before he could speak, and returned to his seat in a bad mood.

The chemistry teacher walked to the podium with his textbook, looked around at the students, and said, "Class, the monthly exam is this Friday..."

The students below sighed in dismay upon hearing about the monthly exam.

"Another monthly exam, exams every single day, it's so annoying!"

"that is......"

"Are you trying to kill us all...?"

Seeing the unrest below, the chemistry teacher slammed his hand on the table and said, "Quiet! Don't make a sound!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the class immediately fell silent.

"This monthly exam is crucial for your senior year class placement. Whether you stay in Class A depends on your scores. Alright, let's go over the comprehensive test we handed out last week..."

Xu Feifei didn't feel anything at first when she heard about the monthly exam, but when she heard the words "class division," her heart tightened, and she hurriedly asked Lin Yuan, "Were the monthly exams difficult before?"

"It's not difficult, it's very easy."

Xu Feifei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then I'm relieved!"

Lu Ren, who was looking down at his test paper, heard Xu Feifei's words and couldn't help but laugh, "You actually believe what Lin Yuan said! Their abilities are not equal. Besides, this chemistry test was set by Sister Qin, and Sister Qin's tests are notoriously difficult!"

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh. Xu Feifei, who had just relaxed, became anxious again. She quickly asked, "Who is Sister Qin?"

"Our chemistry teacher! She's also our grade head. Her name is Zhou Qin, and we all call her Sister Qin!"

Xu Feifei never paid attention to her teachers' names; she always referred to them only by the subject they taught. This was the first time she learned that Sister Qin was her chemistry teacher and also the head of her grade.

This devastating news hit her hard: if she didn't do well on her chemistry exam, she would be in real trouble.

"What if I don't do well on the test? Will I be called in for questioning?"

"Hey! I finally found the test paper!" Lu Ren happily picked out the one that Sister Qin was going to go over from a messy stack of papers.

"Do you want it or not?" Xu Feifei asked quickly.

"If you do well on the exam, you don't need to worry about this!" Lin Yuan comforted her from the side.

Lu Ren: "Ah! No way!"

"I don't drink tea, but I'll treat you to coffee!" Lu Ren added with a smile.

"Ah!" Xu Feifei hadn't even had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief when she was startled by those words.

"I attended the class! Cramming at the last minute is still possible."

After saying that, Lu Ren stopped talking and focused on listening to the lesson.

Sister Qin is now on the third question, and Xu Feifei took out her test paper and quickly kept up with her pace.

After the bell rang, get out of class ended on time. Before leaving the classroom, he said, "If you have any questions, feel free to come to my office anytime!"

Xu Feifei looked at the chemistry test paper, which was written in black ink before class, and it had instantly turned into a test paper covered in red ink.

My hands were so tired I could barely lift them. Looking at this exam paper filled with notes, a sense of pride welled up inside me.

Lin Yuan glanced at her from the side and said, "Feifei, you can't take notes like this."

"Hmm?" Xu Feifei looked at her in confusion. What's wrong with this? It's so diligent. It's obviously a test paper from a well-behaved child.

"Hey! Woman, are you copying a book?" Nangong Ye walked over and teased.

Xu Feifei covered the test paper with both hands, her face full of shame and indignation, and said, "You don't understand!"

“Yes, yes, yes! I’ve always disdained copying books!” Nangong Ye laughed.

"Hehe, I bet your test paper is still completely blank!" Xu Feifei quickly retorted sarcastically. Based on her understanding of old novels, male protagonists who were academically challenged usually only started studying hard and began their journey to success after getting together with the female protagonist.

"Woman, I think you've misunderstood me." Nangong Yeye denied her statement and went back to his seat to get his test paper to show her.

"look!"

Xu Feifei stared intently at the test paper; half were correct and half were wrong, and the handwriting showed clear and logical reasoning. This male protagonist isn't one of those academically challenged characters in novels, how is that possible?!

Seeing the incredulous look in her eyes, Nangong Ye said smugly, "This is the template for taking notes!"

Xu Feifei felt ashamed, angry, and resentful, and said indignantly, "Lin Yuan's is the template!"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Ye laughed instead.

Lin Yuan said coldly, "Nangong Ye, go back to your seat."

Nangong Ye retorted, dissatisfied, "Hey! I'm doing this for her own good!"

Lin Yuan stared at him coldly, their gaze meeting for less than ten seconds. Nangong Ye was the first to give in; the once-proud rooster finally retreated in resentment.

Xu Feifei watched the male lead's resentful back, a hint of amusement creeping into her eyes. Looking back at her own exam paper, she felt quite pleased with herself. It wasn't as bad as people said!

Turning to look at Lin Yuan's test paper, wow, not a single one had been corrected! All correct! No wonder the male lead smiled just now.

Lin Yuan took Xu Feifei's test paper and said, "I'll teach you!"
