Before school was over, Lin Xiangyu's cell phone suddenly rang, breaking his somewhat peaceful thoughts.
He picked up his phone and unlocked the screen. Shin Young-ae's message lay quietly in the chat box, like a stone thrown into the lake of his heart, causing ripples.
[Xiangyu, can you talk to me after school? ]
Lin Xiangyu's gaze lingered on the line of words for a moment, and countless guesses flashed through his mind in an instant. Before he had time to think about it, his fingertips quickly tapped on the screen to give a reply.
【certainly. 】
Almost instantly, Shin Young-ae's message popped up again, each word clear and powerful, as if conveying unquestionable firmness.
[Okay, I'll wait for you in the office after school.]
Lin Xiangyu took a deep breath, calmed his slightly fluctuating emotions, and responded quickly.
【good. 】
After clicking the send button, Lin Xiangyu vaguely felt that this brief conversation might become another turning point in his life.
After replying the message, Lin Xiangyu subconsciously turned his head and looked at Zheng Xiuying who was sitting next to him.
In the past few days, Zheng Xiuying's behavior was really abnormal. She and Li Yizhen, who she was not familiar with before, became inexplicably close. Lin Xiangyu ran into them several times having intimate conversations in private, and their figures were inseparable.
"Could it be... that incident changed Zheng Xiuying's sexual orientation?"
Lin Xiangyu couldn't help but have this absurd thought in his mind. Even he found it funny, but he couldn't help but speculate like this.
As if they had telepathic connection, Zheng Xiuying seemed to have noticed Lin Xiangyu's gaze. She turned her head abruptly and glared at him fiercely. The anger and unwillingness in her eyes seemed to burn Lin Xiangyu.
Lin Xiangyu smiled bitterly helplessly. From that day on, whenever Zheng Xiuying found Lin Xiangyu looking at her, she would express her emotions unreservedly in this way.
But this also shows that she has not really let go of this relationship.
The school bell rang suddenly, and the sound was particularly harsh in the quiet classroom.
Lin Xiangyu did not get up immediately. He planned to wait until all his classmates left before going out. After all, if someone saw him going to Shin Young-ae's office after school, who knows what rumors would spread.
It is said that "If students are not active after school, they have ideological problems", and this is absolutely true. Most of the students in the classroom seemed to have been pressed the fast-forward button and disappeared after school. After a while, there were only a few people left in the classroom.
Among these people were Lin Xiangyu, Zheng Xiuying, Li Yizhen, and another classmate who was packing up and preparing to leave.
Li Yizhen glanced at Lin Xiangyu's seat and saw that he was sitting still and had no intention of leaving, so she stood up and walked towards the classroom door with brisk steps.
When passing by Zheng Xiuying's position, she tilted her head slightly and gave Zheng Xiuying a meaningful look. Zheng Xiuying bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and followed her.
Lin Xiangyu keenly sensed that there was something strange about this, but he did not follow to find out what was going on.
Firstly, he was about to go to Shin Young-ae's office for an appointment;
Secondly, he didn't want to disturb Zheng Xiuying's life too much. Now that he had made the choice, he should let everything slowly return to calm.
The classroom was soon empty and there were only a few students left in the corridor. Lin Xiangyu then slowly stood up from his seat and walked towards Shin Young-ae's office.
He had just walked out of the classroom not far when he saw Li Yizhen and Zheng Xiuying sneaking around in the corridor, looking at each classroom one by one. Finally, the two of them walked into a classroom.
Lin Xiangyu's heart skipped a beat and a bad premonition came to his mind. He was just about to follow quietly to see what was going on.
But at this moment, Shin Young-ae opened the office door and the two of them met face to face.
Shin Young-ae looked around and saw that there were no other students in the corridor, so she whispered to Lin Xiangyu, "Come in."
"Okay." Lin Xiangyu responded softly.
But he looked towards the direction of the classroom with some worry, and the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became stronger and stronger.
