Chapter 32 You're most beautiful when you're being malicious. Saying you're a mistress, and at the same time…
"Host," the system said, shrinking back, "this is so embarrassing."
Wen Han, slightly annoyed and exasperated, said, "Do I need you to remind me?!"
He added, "Luckily, it was just a touch on the hand, nothing else."
system:"......"
"It's all Gu Cheng's fault, that plague god, for bringing me bad luck."
System: "It was clearly you, host, who gloated first."
After the performance ended and everyone took their bows, they went to their seats to watch the next show. Jingyu was called away by the homeroom teacher to help out, and Wenhan unfortunately sat next to Wenruan.
Zhao Minyue was still showing off his peacock-like manner, making small talk with Wen Ruan. Wen Han, hearing the stupid things he said, had never wished she was hard of hearing so much.
Zhao Minyue was speaking enthusiastically when a rustling sound suddenly came from the back row. Wen Han frowned and looked back, only to see Gu Cheng walking over alone at some point. At his signal, several classmates sitting behind Wen Ruan "voluntarily" left their seats to make room for Gu Cheng. Before Wen Ruan could notice, Gu Cheng suddenly reached out a hand through the gap between Wen Ruan and Wen Han's seats and put it on Wen Ruan's shoulder.
Good heavens, this is unbearable!
Wen Ruan let out a soft meow like a cat, clearly startled. Wen Han looked at the hand next to her face, wondering if anyone had a lighter.
Forget it, I'll just try to bear with it.
Wen Ruan blushed: "Gu Cheng, put your hand down quickly."
Gu Cheng smiled and said, "No."
He tried it.
Wen Han suddenly stood up. The class monitor, who was sitting next to him, hadn't figured out what was going on when Wen Han said, "Switch seats with me."
"Okay." The class monitor didn't realize that Gu Cheng was sitting behind Wen Ruan until he stood up. He turned around and looked at Wen Han pitifully.
Wen Han's heart was harder than iron; she pointed at him and told him to hurry up.
The class monitor could only shrink back, giving Gu Cheng and Wen Ruan some space. Wen Han felt like vomiting just hearing them flirting.

"Wen Han".
"Holy crap." Wen Han was listening to the singing on stage when she saw Lin He's face and was startled. "What are you doing here?"
"You performed wonderfully," Lin He said with a blissful expression. "So beautiful."
Wen Han leaned back, noticing he was looking in that direction: "There's a handsome guy over there. If you want to see him, switch seats with him."
The squad leader cast a longing look at Lin He.
"Forget it," Lin He said with a slight smile. "I hate the smell of smoke."
Wen Han chuckled softly: "That's the only thing you're similar to me in."
Seeing that Wen Han didn't take his words seriously, Lin He deliberately moved closer and said, "Really, you look most beautiful at times like this."
Wen Han was too lazy to comment on his overused tricks, and deliberately made things difficult for him by saying, "Oh, then tell me when?"
When Lin He smiled, his eyes didn't crinkle, as if he wanted everyone to see the tenderness in them: "You're most beautiful when you're being wicked."
He closed his eyes and took Wen Han's arm: "I'm not lying to you. Has anyone ever told you that when you have bad ideas in your mind, they show on your face? It's really obvious, but you're most beautiful at that time, cutely sarcastic. I noticed that before."
"You're definitely more beautiful when you're jealous."
Wen Han pinched him.
"Ouch!" Lin He said, feeling wronged. "Why did you pinch me?"
The honey had an alcoholic taste, and Wen Han said incredulously, "You're really brave, daring to drink at school?"
It was probably a low-alcohol fruit wine, but this fool was clearly drunk and out of his mind.
“They’re going to come and beat me up again after school. If I can’t beat them, I won’t feel much when they beat me up.”
Wen Han asked, puzzled, "How exactly did you offend those people?"
That Alpha looked unfamiliar; he seemed different from a notorious hoodlum like Gu Cheng, and was more low-key.
Lin He, feeling wronged, tried to hug Wen Han's arm again, but Wen Han pushed his head away, preventing him from getting close. Wen Han said impatiently, "Either tell me or get lost."
"The person he likes likes me."
Wen Han raised an eyebrow: "There must be more than that. What good deeds did you do that made them so unwilling to let you go?"
"Hmm..." Lin He chuckled casually, "I never agreed to that Beta's request. It was all his wishful thinking. Why blame it all on me?"
Wen Han coldly looked away and sneered, "Then you deserve what you got for it."
“I didn’t ask anyone to ostracize him,” Lin He said softly. “Besides, he didn’t protect me when I was around, but now that I’m gone, he’s causing me trouble. How much affection could he possibly have? Why doesn’t he transfer schools with his sweetheart?”
After saying that, his tone carried a hint of coquetry: "Pay attention to me, I've been doing what you say to deal with people I'm not interested in."
Wen Han thought for a moment, and he asked Lin He to give Zhang Huihui the hope that she would ignore him again. In some ways, what he did seemed no different from what Lin He did.
Wen Han pointed at Wen Ruan: "If you can make Wen Ruan fall in love with someone else, I'll admire you."
Lin He looked hurt: "I just wanted you to be nicer to me, and you actually wanted to send someone to their death."
Wen Han felt a little guilty: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Wen Han!" Zhang Huihui had gone to buy water for Wen Ruan, but when she returned, she saw Wen Han and Lin He chatting and laughing. She was furious and immediately yelled, "Have you no shame? Do you really want to be a mistress?"
Fortunately, the other class was performing a chorus, and their voices drowned out his shouts.
However, everyone in those rows of their class heard what was said clearly. Wen Han's face immediately turned cold. He was sitting there properly, and Lin He was getting close and touching him inappropriately. Was Zhang Huihui just selectively blind to this?
"Zhang Huihui, you've misunderstood." The class monitor quickly stepped in to mediate. "They're just acquaintances; after all, they're colleagues."
Zhang Huihui questioned, "Would colleagues be this close?"
Class monitor: "Uh... there's nothing strange about good friends getting along like this, right?"
"He should also be mindful of maintaining distance," Zhang Huihui started to cry. "His behavior is just like a green tea bitch!"
Yang Lanjun sat in the front, looking annoyed: "Zhang Huihui, how are other people supposed to watch the performance if you keep making such a scene?"
"Lin He was the one who offered to sit here," Yang Lanjun sneered. "Whether he's your boyfriend or not is another matter. Has he ever admitted it? Don't you know what kind of jerk Lin He is?"
"Yang Lanjun, what's it to you? What gives you the right to talk about Lin He like that?"
Wen Han almost wanted to applaud him.
Lin He caused this chaos without any remorse, and instead leaned on Wen Han's shoulder in a very good mood.
Wen Han stepped aside in surprise, wondering if Lin He was a reincarnated pig spirit, given how shameless he was.
Seeing Wen Han's murderous gaze, Lin He finally lazily lifted his eyelids: "Wen Han and I are not dating."
Zhang Huihui's tone softened a bit, but she was still being stubborn: "Then you should be more careful. Why are you so close to him? Don't you know I hate him?"
"Ah..." Lin He chuckled, drawing out the sound, "Well, there's nothing I can do then. You shouldn't follow me anymore."
Zhang Huihui was dumbfounded: "What?"
"My friends won't change because of you. Since you care about these things, then it's over between us."
From the end of Lin He and Zhang Huihui's relationship to their "breakup," less than a week had passed. Wen Han really wanted to hit him. What good could such a short time possibly do?
Zhang Huihui said helplessly, "Lin He, don't be like this."
Wen Han watched as Zhang Huihui's eyes quickly reddened and tears streamed down her face in just half a minute, and she said humbly, "Lin He, I was wrong, please don't do this."
The effect was so great in just one week? Wen Han wanted to ask Lin He how he did it. He hadn't come up with any new tricks in a long time and was getting tired of causing trouble at home, so he couldn't keep up the chaos from morning till night.
Some people around were watching the spectacle, while others felt indignant on Zhang Huihui's behalf. Wen Ruan frowned and said, "Lin He, don't go too far."
Lin He turned his head and said with a smile, "See, since your friend thinks so too, it's better if we don't contact each other."
Zhang Huihui sobbed, "No, no."
Wen Han hesitated, then looked at Zhang Huihui, who was pleading with Lin He in fear. Wen Han felt like he was a dog.
If Lin He really made Zhang Huihui kneel down and beg him, Wen Han suspected that Zhang Huihui would do so in order to save the relationship.
Zhang Huihui was now completely devoid of his previous arrogance, appearing as humble as could be. Did Wen Han feel pity? Did she feel guilty? Wen Han, however, felt a secret sense of schadenfreude.
You went against me before, and now you're still acting tough? You deserve it, you deserve it.
Yang Lanjun couldn't stand it anymore and whispered a reminder: "I know you're enjoying yourself right now, but try to tone down your expression. It's too obvious."
Wen Han: "......"
——
When Jingyu returned, this was the scene she saw: Wen Han, who didn't want to look like she was smiling and pretended to be serious; Lin He, who was sitting next to Wen Han and was laughing disgustingly; and Zhang Huihui, who was standing to the side crying.
When Wen Han saw Jing Yu, she quickly waved and pushed Lin He, saying, "You've taken someone else's seat."
"He can sit somewhere else."
Wen Han said matter-of-factly, "This is the seat I saved for him. If you want to sit, find a place yourself."
Lin He smiled helplessly, and before leaving, he couldn't be honest. He whispered in Wen Han's ear, "I didn't lie to you, did I? You're most beautiful when you're being naughty."
Wen Han really wanted to slap him.
Seeing Lin He leave, Zhang Huihui quickly ran after him. Jing Yu asked softly, "What just happened?"
Wen Han was still angry: "Two people escaped from the mental hospital."
After the speeches finally ended, it was time to announce the rankings. The class monitor jumped up excitedly, while Wen Han still couldn't believe that their class had actually won first place.
"Host, be careful," the system said cautiously. "It seems Zhang Huihui wants to hang you on the school wall."
"He's incredibly bold." Wen Han felt she had been too lenient. "What did he say?"
"They say you're a mistress, cheating on several people at the same time."
"...How many people do I even know? Did the rest of you spring out of a rock?!"
