Take the book

Xu Feifei turned her head and saw Lin Yuan stand up and say, "Let's go."

Nangong Ye frowned and said, "I'll go."

Xu Feifei was quite surprised by Nangong Ye's answer. She had thought she would have to persuade the male lead for a long time before he would help. But it was so easy!

Also, Lin Yuan seems aloof, but is actually warm-hearted?

Thinking about her own mission, she hesitated and declined, saying, "Lin Yuan, I think there will be a lot of books. We are both girls and we may not be able to carry them all at once. Let Nangong Ye and me go get them!"

Lin Yuan refused, saying, "I can do it."

Nangong Ye's brows relaxed as he said, "I can manage on my own, none of you need to go." There was a hint of pleasure in his voice.

Just then, Lin Xier hurriedly walked in through the back door. "Nangong Ye, your English teacher wants to see you in her office. It's urgent."

"I'll go over in a bit."

"No, this is about your English competition. We're going to classroom 306 for the test next period." Lin Xier looked on expectantly, wanting Nangong Ye to come with her quickly.

Seeing Lin Xier like this, and then looking at Xu Feifei and Lin Yuan, Nangong Ye couldn't help but feel depressed.

Lin Xier pleaded, "Please come with me quickly, okay? My English teacher is urging us."

Nangong Ye clicked his tongue impatiently, feeling extremely irritated. But seeing Lin Xier's appearance, he couldn't bear it and turned to Lin Yuan, saying, "Can you get the book when I get back? I'll go to the English teacher's place first."

Xu Feifei nodded helplessly, silently thinking to herself, "I still have class when you come back. Besides, the female lead is asking you to do chores, how can you possibly stay here obediently?"

The first step of the strategy was thus lost, and Xu Feifei felt extremely regretful.

He watched calmly as Nangong Ye followed Lin Xier away. No way! My time-travel machine!

"Let's go to the registrar's office to get the books."

Xu Feifei turned her gaze back to Lin Yuan and asked in confusion, "Huh?! The two of us?"

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow and said, "Otherwise, do you expect him to come back and get it for you?"

"No, let's go together then! The books might be a bit heavy." Xu Feifei still wanted to find someone to go with her and share the weight.

"It's nothing." Lin Yuan turned and left.

Xu Feifei walked beside her and suddenly realized that Lin Yuan was quite tall. She hadn't noticed it when she was sitting, but it was obvious when they were standing together.

"Lin Yuan, how tall are you? Are you over 1.8 meters?"

1.82 meters tall

Wow, you're so tall! You could be a supermodel!

"Are you interested in becoming a supermodel?" Xu Feifei asked excitedly.

"without."

"Why? What do you want to be when you grow up?"

"ah!"

A tremendous force shoved Xu Feifei, catching her off guard and causing her to fall towards Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan caught her in her arms to prevent her from falling.

"Excuse me, I was in such a hurry and didn't see where I was going. I'm so sorry I bumped into you. Are you alright?" The boy looked at them apologetically, his face flushed and him panting.

"Keep an eye on her, don't let her wander off." Lin Yuan said with a frown and an unhappy tone, holding Xu Feifei, who had just regained her footing, in her arms.

After standing up straight, Xu Feifei took a half step back. She looked angrily at the boy, but seeing his apologetic expression, sincere attitude, and somewhat cautious demeanor, her anger subsided considerably. Unable to say anything more, she helplessly said, "Don't let it happen again."

The boy touched his head and chuckled sheepishly, "Okay, there won't be a next time."

Xu Feifei nodded and continued walking towards the Academic Affairs Office with Lin Yuan.

As soon as they came down the stairs, the boy from before walked quickly in front of them and asked, "Excuse me, what class are you in?"

"We are from Class 1."

"What a coincidence! I'm from Class 2 next to yours. My name is Zhang Jiayi." Zhang Jiayi grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth.

Xu Feifei's previous displeasure vanished completely upon hearing his smile. She then introduced herself, "My name is Xu Feifei, and this is my deskmate, Lin Yuan."

“I know Lin Yuan, we call her the Ice Queen in private. You’re the school beauty who transferred from B Middle School, right?” Zhang Jiayi whispered to Xu Feifei.

"Let's go, class is about to start," Lin Yuan urged impatiently, pulling Xu Feifei's hand as they walked forward.

"Where are you going? Do you need my help?" Zhang Jiayi asked as she stepped forward.

"No need, don't follow me anymore," Lin Yuan said irritably.

Xu Feifei had initially considered asking Zhang Jiayi for help when he offered, thinking it was free labor and she might as well take advantage of it. But seeing Lin Yuan's resistant expression, she decided against it.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jiayi didn't shamelessly follow. "If you need any help in the future, feel free to come to me."

Xu Feifei was about to respond to him, but before she could say anything, Lin Yuan dragged her away forcefully.

Zhang Jiayi waved to their retreating figures and said loudly, "Remember to ask me if you need any help. Bye-bye."

Xu Feifei was being dragged along by Lin Yuan, her hand aching from the force of the pull.

She quickly called out, "Lin Yuan, stop, stop, stop..."

Lin Yuan ignored her and continued walking forward for a while. Only afterward did she release Xu Feifei's hand, finally freeing Xu Feifei's wrist.

She quickly withdrew her hand and saw that her wrist was completely red. She pressed on the red spot with her other hand and blew on it, trying to relieve the pain.

After a while, Xu Feifei supported her right forearm with her left hand and shook it, saying, "Look, it's all red. I can't move it. How am I going to hold the book later?"

Lin Yuan glanced at her hand, frowned, and looked away. "You don't need to take it, I'll take it." Her tone was still somewhat displeased, but much better than before.

Xu Feifei noticed Lin Yuan's unpleasant expression and asked in a low voice, "Have you had a conflict with Zhang Jiayi?"

"No." Lin Yuan's expression darkened further upon hearing Zhang Jiayi's name.

"No? I don't believe you. You don't look too good." Xu Feifei continued to press.

"It's just that I don't like it, nothing else. We've arrived at the Academic Affairs Office." Lin Yuan knocked on the door, then pushed it open and went inside.

The academic affairs office is quite large, decorated in a European style, with only three desks and a large table covered with various books. Currently, only one teacher is working there.

Xu Feifei looked at the rather messy books on the table, not knowing where to start, and walked over to the teacher's side.

"Hello teacher, I am a new transfer student. I'm here to collect my books."

The teacher looked up at Xu Feifei and Lin Yuan, pointed to the corner of the table, and said, "The new books are all over there, and the book list is also on it. Just go and get them yourselves. Remember to come back here to sign and register after you're done."

"Okay, thank you, teacher."

Xu Feifei walked in the direction the teacher pointed. A pile of books was scattered haphazardly, with the book list weighed down by a teacup, and there were some tea stains and dust on it.

Xu Feifei placed the teacup aside, then picked up the book list with her thumb and forefinger with a hint of disdain and looked at the titles on it.

Lin Yuan watched her movements without saying a word and started searching through the pile of books.

After Xu Feifei silently read the book titles, she was about to start looking for the books when she discovered that Lin Yuan had almost collected all the books and placed them in an empty space on the table. They were piled up high and arranged neatly.

Upon seeing the stack of books, Xu Feifei couldn't help but exclaim, "Amazing!"

She checked the book list against the books one by one, and after aligning them, she put the book list and teacup back in their original places, ready to take the books back to class.

Looking at the stack of books on the table, I couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. There were a total of 16 books, textbooks and workbooks, mostly workbooks, and each workbook was quite big and heavy.

Xu Feifei silently complained to herself: "If only the male lead were here, he could do the hard labor."

With a sigh, she went to the teacher to sign in. Turning around, she found that Lin Yuan had disappeared along with her books.

She hurriedly walked out of the academic affairs office, and as soon as she stepped out, she saw Lin Yuan walking back with the books in front of her.

"You're carrying so many books, why didn't you wait for me?" Xu Feifei wanted to take half of the books from her arms to help her with the weight.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yuan shifted her body slightly and dodged it.

"No need, I can take it."

"That won't do! Let me take some!"

"Really, you don't need to!"

"No, if others see this, they'll think I'm bullying you!" Xu Feifei said, making a move to forcibly snatch the book away.

Lin Yuan had no choice but to agree, saying, "Then take the three smaller ones from the top! Your wrist is still red!"

"My hand is fine now, just give it to me," Xu Feifei said with a smile, taking six books from Lin Yuan's arms.

Seeing her like this, Lin Yuan's expression flashed with displeasure, and she pursed her lips.

Xu Feifei took the opportunity to take a good look around the campus.

The campus covers a large area, and the greenery consists mostly of shrubs, which have been trimmed into small spheres by staff. The teaching buildings are in a European style, with a large lawn in front, a fountain in the middle, and several benches for relaxation.

When I got back to the classroom, class had already started, so I informed the teacher. I quickly went to my seat and put my books on the desk.

"I'm exhausted," Xu Feifei sighed.

Lin Yuan placed the books on the table and said, "You should have listened to me from the beginning, then you wouldn't have had to work so hard."

"Then what should we do...?"

"It's class time now, and I hope you will follow classroom rules."

Xu Feifei was interrupted by the teacher. She glanced at the teacher and found that the teacher was staring at the two of them.

So she obediently sat down and didn't say another word.

Xu Feifei was still in a daze, staring blankly at the blackboard.

Suddenly, she felt a cool touch on her hand, which startled her.

She turned her head and saw Lin Yuan holding her hand, gently pressing it. Xu Feifei tried to pull her hand away.

But she grabbed his hand tightly and stopped him, saying, "Don't move, let me rub it for you."

Seeing the situation, Xu Feifei gave up. Moreover, Lin Yuan's technique was quite good; her hands were cooler than Xu Feifei's, and her technique was gentle and just right. She was very impressed.

Xu Feifei rested her chin on her right hand, watching Lin Yuan massage her for a while. Then she turned to look at the male and female leads, only to find that their seats were empty.

They might still be holding an English competition right now, I never expected the male lead to be such a top student! No, the male lead was always a top student, he just didn't show his talent in the early stages.

But isn't this the early stage?! Xu Feifei was shocked. The male lead is already showing his true colors? What's going on?

Xu Feifei thought for a while, could this be...?

Just then, a voice called "Report!" came from the doorway.
