Ji Qingqian thought this in her heart, but didn't say it aloud. Because her answer was even more impeccable: "I skipped it."
Lu Yibei sighed: "Then that's no fun."
Ji Qingqian narrowed her eyes: "I thought you would say 'Isn't that even better?'"
Lu Yibei thought it over and over again.

Lu Yibei put his hands together in a gesture of worship:

"...What is that?"
"I ran ahead, and the security guard chased after me—'Ji Qingqian! You skipped class again!!'"
The aloof and reserved girl said calmly, "...Like this."
Lu Yibei: ...
He thought it over and over again, and was prepared to think it over and over again.
