The school beauty's four boyfriends 08
Wang Ruoyun and Lin Lan chatted happily and even made plans for afternoon tea the next day.
However, Qi An'an was still scolded the whole way when she left the school with Wang Ruoyun.
She let it go in one ear and out the other, looking all happy.
Wang Ruoyun turned her head and saw her silly look, which made her even angrier.
"Qi An'an, don't provoke Yan Xingcun, understand?"
Qi An'an nodded, then asked, "What should I do if he tries to provoke me?"
Wang Ruoyun stopped abruptly, looking at her daughter's excessively beautiful face, feeling somewhat troubled.
Finally, he just gave her a serious warning, "Anyway, it's impossible for you two... His mother is terrifying when she goes crazy, so if you don't want to get hurt, just ignore him."
Wang Ruoyun felt quite distressed. Her daughter with her ex-husband was like a stumbling block in her climb to success, only causing her to stumble and fall.
But undeniably, her parents raised her so well that she simply couldn't bear to let her go.
We can only take it one step at a time.
Wang Ruoyun walked to the car, and her phone rang again. It sounded like someone was urging her on the other end.
She looked a little anxious and quickly said, "I'm on my way, there's a bit of traffic, I'll be there soon."
She put down her phone and looked back.
Her daughter stared at her with her clear, bright eyes.
"An'an, I have an emergency. Take the bus home by yourself. Message me if you need anything else."
As she spoke, the light in the girl's eyes gradually faded with the afterglow of the sunset, leaving only a layer of utterly calm gray haze.
"Okay." Her voice was carried away by the wind.
Wang Ruoyun sensed something and felt inexplicably guilty and ashamed. She opened her mouth, but in the end, she didn't say anything. She hurriedly got into the car without even giving any further instructions.
Qi An'an was not surprised by this result.
After the BMW disappeared into the traffic, she jogged to board the bus.
In the other car, Yan Xingcun withdrew his gaze.
Lin Lan was unusually calm. "I won't concern myself with your past with Qi An'an, but you two should have less contact in the future and focus on your studies..."
The only sound in the carriage was her voice.
Her son was as quiet as a puppet, only staring blankly out the window.
She didn't feel tired at all, continuing her monologue endlessly.
After she stopped speaking, Yan Xingcun turned to look ahead and asked, "Is that Mrs. Xu the one Grandpa has his eye on from the Xu family?"
Old Master Yan took a liking to Xu's youngest son, who had just returned from his studies abroad, and planned to arrange a marriage for Yan Xingcun's aunt.
Lin Lan paused for a moment after hearing his words before nodding.
"But she was remarried and didn't have much status."
Yan Xingcun didn't ask any more questions. He would find out for himself what he wanted to know.
Lin Lan couldn't help but say, "She's clinging to the Xu family now. Her daughter with her ex-husband can't be seen in the light of day. She's afraid of being gossiped about. No matter how much trouble Qi An'an causes, it won't make a difference."
Lin Lan said this casually, but Yan Xingcun's expression turned somewhat cold.
"I'm telling you all this so that you know that it's impossible for you and Qi An'an to be together. Your future marriage partner will definitely be someone from the same social class as you."
Lin Lan spoke with certainty, but Yan Xingcun's casual remark turned her face ashen.
He said, "But you and Dad are not from the same social class."
——
At the school gate, Mo Sinian looked away from the road and raised an eyebrow almost imperceptibly when he saw Wei Lin's figure.
It wasn't until Wei Lin asked, "Where did she suddenly get a mother from?"
Her parents never attended parent-teacher meetings, and the only people she had mentioned before were her deceased maternal grandparents.
In many people's eyes, she was an orphan who worked part-time at the library during her first year of high school.
Mo Sinian shook his head. "I haven't heard her mention it."
He thought her parents were gone, but judging from the current situation, her parents must have divorced and remarried, and... they don't care about her as their daughter.
Mo Sinian added, "If you care so much, you can go and ask them directly."
Wei Lin instinctively wanted to retort, but then felt it was pointless, so he didn't respond and simply adjusted his glasses.
Mo Sinian waved for a taxi, saying, "Yan Xingcun and Ji Yu both agreed to deny their relationship with her."
"That's your business, don't drag me into it." Wei Lin's expression was somewhat mocking. "She has to bear the consequences of the mess she made. Now you're all lying together to protect her reputation, don't you think that's absurd?"
Mo Sinian's eyes sharpened, and he slowly said, "I just suspect that someone wants to deliberately make a big deal out of this."
Wei Lin: "Do you suspect that I was the one who leaked the information on the forum?"
Mo Sinian remained silent.
Wei Lin laughed in exasperation, "I suspect you've got a screw loose in your head."
Seeing his reaction, Mo Sinian removed him from a certain list and said, "I think it's An An now."
"What?"
"I'm just guessing, but Yan Xingcun seems to have found out something."
Yan Xingcun has a powerful background; if he wants to investigate something, it will definitely be easier for him than for them.
Wei Lin stared at him silently, the usual smile on his lips vanishing, his heart skipped a beat, and a thought flashed through his mind.
No student wants their parents called in by the teacher, but he felt quite fond of Qi An'an.
Her mother scolded her the whole way, but she could still laugh.
Mo Sinian got into the car and left, while Wei Lin remained standing there in a daze.
After wandering around for a while, by the time he came to his senses, he had already arrived downstairs at Qi An'an's building.
Unfortunately, he saw that Ji Yu had also arrived and was blocking Qi An'an in the alley.
"Qi An'an, aren't you being honest? Is it fun to expose yourself cheating on others on the forum?" Ji Yu's sinister voice came through.
Qi An'an shook her head without even thinking, "I didn't."
Ji Yu was somewhat annoyed, his brows furrowed, revealing a hint of fierceness. "You're still lying to me, Qi An'an. Do you dare to show me your phone?"
As he spoke, he reached for the phone in her hand.
Qi An'an put her hands behind her back, and his arm came around to her.
She backed away to avoid him, leaning against the wall. Ji Yu braced himself against the wall with one hand and held her arm with the other.
Her forehead bumped into his chin, and he suddenly came to his senses; their posture at that moment was far too intimate.
Ji Yu froze instantly, as if he were a wooden puppet. He felt that her arms were so thin, as if they would break if he bent them. He almost pulled her completely into his arms...
The next second, he felt a weight on his shoulder, and a hand pulled him backward.
He suddenly turned around, shook off the man's hand, and then realized it was Wei Lin.
Wei Lin looked very refined, but he had used considerable force just now, pulling her several steps back and creating distance between her and the girl.
"What are you doing here?" Ji Yu asked him coldly.
Wei Lin clapped his hands, as if brushing away dust, and said gently, "If you can be here, why can't I?"
He turned to look at Qi An'an, his glasses reflecting spots of light from an unknown direction, obscuring his sharp gaze. "Are you alright?"
Qi An'an touched her forehead, then waved her hand, "It's nothing."
Wei Lin seized the opportunity to take her phone and, while she was still stunned, unlocked it by looking at her face. This whole sequence of actions left Ji Yu completely bewildered.
As Qi An'an reached for the phone, Ji Yu stepped aside to block her, a hint of roguishness in his eyes as he looked on with amusement. "What's the rush?"
Qi An'an: "...You're being indecent. You weren't like this before."
Wei Lin couldn't stand Ji Yu, so he quickly pushed him away, pointed his phone screen at the girl, and said through gritted teeth, "Qi An'an, what is this then? Playing with us, is it fun?"
Qi An'an instinctively tried to grab the phone.
Her other hand was faster, taking the phone from her.
"Let me see." A deep, powerful voice came from the side, and a dark figure landed beside Qi An'an.
Mo Sinian held her phone and scanned her profile page on the screen.
It turns out she was the one who anonymously revealed the story about her cheating on four guys.
He turned to look at the girl, suppressing his imposing manner, and lowered his voice slightly, "Do you want to explain?"
She wasn't embarrassed by being caught, but her eyes held a complicated expression. She took back her phone, shook her head, and said, "I'm sorry, maybe what I did was a bit strange, but... I was just stating the facts. I should be condemned."
She took two steps back and said to the three of them, "You should go back now."
Without waiting for their response, she turned and ran away.
Ji Yu wanted to ask for clarification, but Mo Sinian stopped him.
"Don't pressure her."
Ji Yu pushed him away, "Who forced her? Don't act like I'm some kind of scoundrel."
The two teenagers clashed fists and feet, their tension palpable. Wei Lin glanced around, then stepped aside, adjusted his glasses, and watched the spectacle.
Someone, drunk, walked through the alley, glanced at the three tall, upright teenagers, and hurried away, probably thinking they were some kind of thugs.
Ji Yu and Mo Sinian naturally had no intention of fighting; in fact, they disliked each other and kept their distance.
Mo Sinian thought of Yan Xingcun's words: Was she just using them to make things bigger in order to get the parents' attention?
Thinking about it now, she was acting a little strange before.
She's not someone who enjoys spending time on romance; she loves studying much more.
But she accepted his confession and secretly dated those three men.
That night, he saw her message saying she had a bad cold and didn't have the energy to buy medicine, so he hurriedly took a taxi to her house. Who would have thought he would run into Wei Lin and the other two at the door.
That same night, they learned that she was dating all four of them at the same time.
She wasn't flustered at all at that time, as if she had expected it all along. She calmly and coldly broke up with them, deliberately provoking them.
Actually, it was all part of her plan. She was probably waiting for them to retaliate against her, and once they didn't do anything, she anonymously leaked the information herself...
This inevitably alerted her parents.
Mo Si thought this way, and Ji Yu and Wei Lin naturally shared the same idea.
The three stood there for a while before leaving, their hearts heavy with sorrow.
——
[Task progress +20%!]
After returning home, Qi An'an finally heard news of progress on the mission.
But she couldn't figure out the specific reason for it at the time, and didn't think about it too much.
She can't live for the sake of missions; she's starting to enjoy every world and the life that's hers.
When Qi An'an saw Yan Xingcun the next day, she noticed that his cheeks were somewhat red and swollen, as if... he had been slapped.
But Yan Xingcun had a distant and unapproachable demeanor, so she didn't dare to ask.
The incident of Yan Xingcun's mother causing a scene in Class 1 yesterday did not spread widely. Teacher Lin simply dismissed it as a "misunderstanding," and subsequently, public opinion in the school began to develop in another direction—
The rumor that the school beauty cheated on her boyfriend is false; all four boys have denied the relationship!
More and more people are saying this, but nobody knows where it originated.
But since they all say so, it means that the school beauty was most likely wronged before and suffered a lot of insults. How pitiful!
Of course, a small number of people believe that this is just the school's way of downplaying the issue, and that the four boys were definitely forced to deny it...
None of this affected Qi An'an.
During class, Yu Qingying was engrossed in writing and drawing in her notebook, which didn't seem like she was studying.
Qi An'an solved the case very quickly.
Yu Qingying handed her the notebook and whispered, "An'an, study this carefully. You're so smart, you'll definitely be able to understand it... This is all I can do to help you."
"Hmm?" Qi An'an opened the notebook and saw the words written on it in large characters: "Fish Raising Techniques".
"I've compiled countless tutorial videos on Bilibili, and all the best ones are gathered here."
Qi An'an looked at the girl's dark circles and couldn't help but smile. "Okay, thank you, you've worked hard."
Qi An'an kept quiet about everything else, but she honestly confessed to Yu Qingying.
Therefore, Yu Qingying knew about her relationship with Yan Xingcun.
Qi An'an never expected that not only would she not despise her behavior, but she would also intend to "aid and abet the evildoer".
Yu Qingying waved her hand, "Hey, hey, it's nothing."
Her academic performance was originally a mess, but Qi An'an helped her fill in the gaps in her knowledge, which enabled her to catch up.
Most importantly, Qi An'an is so beautiful. She has absolutely no resistance to girls like her and feels that it would be perfectly acceptable for her to raise a few more fish.
Yu Qingying happily took a sip of water, then turned her head and saw that Qi An'an was already looking at her notebook intently.
She immediately became nervous, as if waiting for the teacher to grade her exam paper.
Seeing that Qi An'an's gaze lingered on a certain line of text for a long time, and that she even picked up a pen, she quickly leaned over and whispered, "Is there a problem?"
Qi An'an nodded and said seriously, "Well, it really depends on the person. Some people can't be kept hanging on forever, otherwise it might backfire."
Yu Qingying: "...Hmm!"
Let whatever the school beauty says go, since she doesn't understand anything anyway.
She humbly asked, "Then how do we know who can hang themselves and who can't?"
Qi An'an had already closed her notebook and said, "Stop slacking off and pay attention in class."
Yu Qingying: "..." Oh, she suspected that she was deliberately keeping her in suspense!
As soon as get out of class ended, Yu Qingying pulled Qi An'an aside to continue studying that problem.
As a result, Qi An'an's mind was filled with nothing but how to raise fish.
"An'an, all the news everyone's spreading is confusing me. Didn't you say... you really dated them?"
Qi An'an nodded, "I didn't lie."
"Then why are they all denying the facts?"
Yu Qingying was worried that they would retaliate against her, but now it seems... there's no sign of that at all.
Qi An'an thought for a moment, "Maybe she doesn't want to be talked about."
This is probably what Mo Sinian mentioned yesterday; they discussed denying their relationship with her together.
—Since the parties involved have said so, there's nothing for onlookers to comment on.
A thought popped into Yu Qingying's mind, "...Isn't it because I don't want you to be talked about, and I don't want to see you get hurt?"
Qi An'an: "That's also possible."
"..." Yu Qingying silently took the fish-raising notebook back.
Qi An'an asked, "Isn't it for me?"
Yu Qingying: "I don't think you need it, but I do."
Qi An'an: "..."
She touched Yu Qingying's face. "I can't take back what's given to me. I need to study it carefully."
Yu Qingying was instantly captivated. Why should she learn to raise fish? She just wanted to be the fish her deskmate raised!
Qi An'an got up to leave, but Yu Qingying belatedly asked, "The bell is about to ring, where are you going?"
Qi An'an bent down slightly and whispered, "Yan Xingcun missed a class. I'll go see what's wrong with him and comfort him while I'm at it."
Yu Qingying: "???"
My darling, your reputation has only just started to improve, so why did you brazenly go to find Yan Xingcun? Aren't you afraid of being scolded at all?
Watching Qi An'an's retreating figure, Yu Qingying silently gave a thumbs-up.
But it also feels a little bittersweet.
One second An'an was touching her face, the next second she was preparing to comfort another boy.
Yu Qingying quickly glanced back and saw that Ji Yu was still asleep on the table, which reassured her slightly.
She took out her phone and joined a group chat with dozens of people—the school beauty's boyfriend.
I started scrolling through the 999+ messages I'd missed.
This group was recently formed and is specifically for shipping couples of school beauties.
But starting yesterday, conflicts began to increase among the women in the group because they were shipping different couples.
[I only ship the school beauty and Mo Sinian, and I'll only ship them for the rest of my life. Last month, I caught the school beauty and tried to explain a physics problem to her, but she still couldn't solve it. In the end, she brought Mo Sinian over... Ugh, the two of them studied it in front of me for ages! Do you know that feeling?! I was holding my pee so hard my bladder was about to explode, but I didn't want to leave for a second! I'm dying from this ship!]
Ahh, I'm totally into Qinian's sweet moments!
[The school beauty and our class monitor are so sweet! Seriously! They're both so gentle, they look like a married couple! Last time Wei Lin represented our class in a basketball game, his glasses fell off, and the school beauty picked them up for him! He didn't even reach out to take them, he actually bent down and let her put them on for him! I still have that photo saved!]
[Photo.jpg]
【Aaaaaah! Is there any more?!】【They're all expired candy! They never even dated the school beauty (I'm so sad)】
[Ji Yu's side is so much more adorable! Yesterday, the school beauty almost got slapped, and it was all thanks to Ji Yu blocking that grumpy old lady. If the teacher hadn't come over, he would have hit her himself. That's boyfriend material! Who doesn't understand!]
[But it was clearly Yan Xingcun who pulled the school beauty away first, and they even hugged! Look at the picture!]
[Ahhh! He just hugged her?! To be honest, I don't think I've seen this handsome guy before! He seems to be the same style as Wei Lin!]
No, he's usually quite gloomy, with a handsome villain vibe. I don't even dare to meet his eyes.
...
After reading it, Yu Qingying thought about An An's attitude and couldn't figure out which one she liked better.
But the fact that An'an skipped class to go see Yan Xingcun suggests that Yan Xingcun is more important.
So Yu Qingying changed "奇遇" (Qi Yu) after her group nickname to "鹌鹑" (A Quail).
