Nangong Ye's question left Xu Feifei completely stunned.

After a while, she realized what was happening and pretended to be shy, saying in a affected manner, "We haven't seen each other for a long time, so I wanted to come and see you."

After Xu Feifei finished speaking, she felt disgusted with herself; goosebumps rose on her hands. But she endured it in order to go back.

The teacup slammed heavily on the table. Xu Feifei turned around and saw Lin Yuan's gloomy expression. The tea in the cup was still sloshing, spilling out and wetting her hands and the table.

Nangong Ye took the tissues from the side, and Xu Feifei quickly pulled out a few tissues to wipe Lin Yuan's hands. She was about to wipe the table as well.

Lin Yuan took the tissue from Xu Feifei and wiped the table dry with a blank expression.

Nangong Ye glanced at Lin Yuan, "Xu Feifei, there's absolutely no way it's possible between us. Our relationship is just something our parents talk about, and besides, you're not my type."

Xu Feifei thought to herself, "Do you think I don't know who you like? The person you like is the female lead, Lin Xi'er. Although I haven't read the whole novel, I did flip through the ending."

And also, do you think I like you? I'm only doing this to get back.

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt pathetic.

"And I'm ordering you now, you're not allowed to like me. Woman, give up on that idea!" Nangong Ye looked down at her and said in a commanding tone.

Xu Feifei couldn't help but laugh at his current appearance. The male lead was indeed as domineering as the novel's title suggested. It's just that the dialogue sounded a bit childish.

Seeing Xu Feifei smile, Nangong Ye frowned and asked in confusion, "What do you mean by that? You're not scared out of your wits, are you?"

Xu Feifei forced a laugh and said, "No, I was just joking."

"I transferred to this school because I felt that the teaching resources at A High School were better than those at my original school. And I believed that I could get into the best university from A High School."

After Xu Feifei finished speaking, she looked at the male lead with a determined expression. She often effortlessly spouted nonsense.

"Xu Feifei, do you think I'm stupid?! You've never been able to get into school just because your family donated a school building, have you?" Nangong Ye said with disbelief.

"Yes, that's how I used to be, but now I want to save money for my family and learn new things. There's a saying that knowledge is power. I didn't realize it before, but now that I'm older and more sensible, I understand the importance of knowledge, so I transferred here," Xu Feifei said with a determined look.

Nangong Ye stared at Xu Feifei in disbelief. Lin Yuan, standing to the side, subtly smiled upon hearing her words.

Just then, there was a knock at the door. Nangong Ye, somewhat annoyed, said, "Come in."

The door opened, and a waiter carried in the dishes, placing them one by one on the table. After setting them out, he lifted the lids. The moment the lids were lifted, a fragrant aroma wafted out, and the delicious and tempting smell of the food surrounded Xu Feifei's nose.

There were four dishes in total. Xu Feifei had ordered three of them, and there was an extra plate of lobster on the table.

Do you think I would believe what you're saying?

But Xu Feifei's attention was now completely drawn to the food on the table, and she had no interest in listening to what he was saying.

Seeing this, Nangong Ye shouted in dissatisfaction, "Xu Feifei, are you even listening to me?"

This time, Xu Feifei did hear it, but she was only thinking about food, so she smiled sheepishly and said, "Let's eat first, then we can talk. Let's start eating."

She held her chopsticks, itching to eat, and now all that was left was for the male lead and Lin Yuan to say "let's eat."

"Let's eat first, and we'll talk afterwards," Lin Yuan said.

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Feifei started eating.

She had already eaten snacks until she was full, and then she ate a lot of vegetables, so Xu Feifei's belly is now quite round.

Xu Feifei was very satisfied with the meal. The meat in the dishes was all white and tender, and the taste was delicious. These dishes suited her taste perfectly. Truly worthy of a state banquet!

Thank you, Mary Sue, for letting her eat such expensive and delicious food!

After the meal, the waiter came in, cleared the dishes off the table, and then brought out the dessert.

"This shop's signature dessert is mango pomelo sago." Nangong Ye.

Upon seeing this, Xu Feifei was secretly annoyed, regretting that she hadn't eaten so much. She really couldn't eat any more now, fearing she might vomit if she ate any more.

Seeing Xu Feifei's annoyed expression, Lin Yuan laughed and said, "If you can't eat, then don't eat. Don't overeat and upset your stomach."

Xu Feifei looked at the tempting dessert in front of her, and could only nod sadly, turning her face away. She secretly touched her bag, thinking to herself, "It's okay, I'll come back next time. I have plenty of money now."

Thinking about this, I couldn't help but get excited. It was the first time in my life I'd owned a black card, and with so much money, I'd instantly go from a pauper to a rich woman. Just thinking about it made me happy.

Nangong Ye watched as Xu Feifei's expression suddenly shifted from annoyance to excitement, feeling utterly bewildered. "Did she eat too much and become stupid? If she does, will she keep clinging to me?" A sense of panic washed over him.

He quickly asked, "Xu Feifei, can you tell me now?"

"What did you say?" The male lead kept asking questions, making it really hard for her to respond!

"Were you so full you went mad, or were you just pretending?"

Xu Feifei thought about what had happened earlier; she had eaten too much and it took her a while to process it. After a while, she finally came to her senses. "Oh~, I really came here to learn, believe me!"

She gazed at him with such sincere eyes, blinking rapidly. They say the eyes are the windows to the soul, and she refused to believe that the male lead wouldn't believe her sincerity.

So Nangong Ye looked into Xu Feifei's eyes, then turned his head away with a slightly disgusted look and looked towards Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan ate her dessert without saying a word, but a faint smile could be seen on her face.

"Alright, I'll believe you for now. But I'll still ask my parents to dissolve the engagement, so you should be prepared."

Xu Feifei said earnestly and loudly, "I am always ready. The country does not encourage early marriage. As a citizen of this country, I understand that."

The only thing missing from this impressive display is a salute.

Lin Yuan burst out laughing. Xu Feifei and Nangong Ye both looked in her direction, and Xu Feifei quietly touched Lin Yuan's hand under the table, signaling her not to laugh.

If we're expecting the marriage to be dissolved, that'll probably only happen in the finale. By the time she returns to the real world, the story here won't be over yet!

Nangong Ye looked at her with some disbelief and said, "Okay, I'll believe you for now."

After lunch, it's time for a midday rest.

While Nangong Ye went to pay the bill, he begged Lin Yuan, "I want to familiarize myself with the school's layout later. Will you come with me?"

Xu Feifei had considered asking the male lead to accompany her. After all, spending time together was a good way to deepen their relationship, and it would increase her chances of success.

But then, what I just said becomes unreliable. That's too embarrassing; I'd better forget about it.

Lin Yuan nodded and said, "Okay."

Xu Feifei smiled and said, "Lin Yuan, you're so kind."

After Nangong Ye paid the bill, Xu Feifei pulled Lin Yuan away. Nangong Ye looked at them and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Lin Yuan and I are planning to walk around the school and get familiar with the environment."

"I want to come too."

The male lead's words really left Xu Feifei puzzled. One minute he was complaining about her, and the next he wanted to accompany her to stroll around campus?

However, this is also a rare opportunity, and of course she can't miss it; she has to seize it.

“Okay!” Xu Feifei readily agreed. She didn’t notice that Lin Yuan’s face darkened after she said yes.

A cell phone rang. Nangong Ye took out his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and said, "Let me answer this call first."

"Lin Xier, what's wrong?" Nangong Ye asked as he walked to the side.

It's the female lead! Alarm bells rang in Xu Feifei's mind, so she stood on tiptoe and leaned forward, trying to eavesdrop.

Lin Yuan pulled her back impatiently and asked, "What are you doing?"

Caught red-handed, Xu Feifei pressed her fingers together on the ground, mimicking a leg-stretching motion. She stood up, laughing awkwardly, "You mean I wanted to stretch? Would you believe me?"

Lin Yuan looked clearly disbelieving and sighed, "I just spoke with my brother not long ago to tell him how much you miss him. Now, sigh~."

"When? I didn't see you make a phone call." Xu Feifei asked in shock.

Nangong Ye took a breath and said, "Excuse me, I have something to take care of here. You guys go ahead!"

Xu Feifei had already guessed this outcome, and waved her hand dismissively, saying, "Go, go!"

After Nangong Ye left, he asked, "When did you make that call?"

Before meals.

Xu Feifei thought for a moment and asked in confusion, "Before dinner? I was with you the whole time, how come I didn't know?"

"That means you didn't notice me," Lin Yuan said before walking forward.

Seeing this, Xu Feifei quickly followed. Recalling what had happened before dinner, she remembered that she hadn't seen Lin Yuan make a phone call. But looking at Lin Yuan, she didn't seem to be lying.

He walked up to her, looking annoyed, and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know what I was doing!"

Lin Yuan looked at Xu Feifei and smiled, "It's okay, I forgive you."

Changing the subject, he asked, "Where would you like to go for a walk?"

Xu Feifei thought for a moment and said, "I want to go to the library."

"Okay, let's go."

After walking for about ten minutes, we finally arrived at the library. The library was magnificent and grand, and the interior was clean and bright. It covered a large area, with half of the space dedicated to books and the other half to tables and chairs for students to read.

Xu Feifei walked into this library, which felt a bit like walking into a library in the city center in real life.

The two strolled around the library, stopping and looking at things here and there. They even took a break for a while. With only twenty minutes left of their lunch break, Xu Feifei checked the time and said, "Let's go back to class. You can take me sightseeing again when we have time."

"good."

As I left the library and entered the teaching building, a voice came from behind me: "Hey, Feifei, where have you been? You're back?"

Xu Feifei turned around and looked over, somewhat surprised, "Zhang Jiayi?!"
