The next morning in the first-year high school classroom.
Yin Tao sat on her desk, chatting and laughing with a girl.
She had gotten to know almost all of her classmates. Although most of them took the initiative to get to know her, Yin Tao was happy to get along well with them.
"Hehe, really? How come I didn't know about this?"
"Really! Listen to me..."
Many students had already arrived at school early and were chatting amongst themselves.
When it was almost time for morning reading, Yin Tao finally got off her desk, waved to the girl she was chatting with with, and said with a grin, "Class is about to start, I'm going back now~"
"Uh-huh."
Back in her seat, she stretched lazily and glanced casually to the side. Ye Qingzhou was fiddling with something, intently looking at her phone under the table.
"What are you playing?" Yin Tao asked curiously, leaning her face closer.
Ye Qingzhou frowned slightly, somewhat displeased. Yin Tao's chin was still casually resting on his shoulder. "Speak softly. If we talk this close, you'll deafen me."
"Understood--"
"You don't understand anything." Hearing her drawn-out reply, Ye Qingzhou shook her head speechlessly, "What was that girl's name? You were chatting with her so intimately."
"Um... I don't know."
"How can we chat for so long without even knowing each other's names?"
"Hehe, it's only the second day after all, and we're not very familiar with each other yet." Yin Tao playfully stuck out her tongue and poked his back with her finger.
"I see you're quite famous; now almost the entire class knows your name."
"Isn't this a good thing? I was planning to get along well with the whole class." Yin Tao's eyes shone, and she seemed a little smug.
Because of her lively personality and pretty face, she moved around the class like a gust of wind, and most people had already made a deep impression on her.
Like a hot-blooded idiot in a comic book or a witty girl in a novel, this kind of person is popular no matter where they are, and the atmosphere around them will be enlivened by their enthusiasm.
"Get along well with the whole class? I doubt it's that easy," Ye Qingzhou said casually, his eyes glued to his phone.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Seeing this, Ye Qingzhou didn't say anything, but just patted the empty table next to him. Xia Lian was unusually late today and hadn't even arrived at the classroom yet.
“Oh yeah… this girl is a bit difficult to get along with…” Yin Tao covered her cheek, looking troubled. Her not-so-bright brain was working overtime to think of a solution. “Yesterday, this girl didn’t want to go out to eat with us. Why is that…”
Ye Qingzhou looked at her as if she were an idiot. "Stupid, she definitely wants to eat with someone she already knows. Otherwise, there's no reason why an introverted girl like her wouldn't go out to eat with us."
"Huh? Is that so?" Yin Tao nodded in sudden understanding, then smiled approvingly, "You're definitely smarter, Qingzhou."
"Compared to your head, which is the size of a walnut, I am indeed one of the smarter ones."
"That's so hurtful... So tell me, who did she go out to eat with?"
Ye Qingzhou was too lazy to argue with her and put his phone in his pocket. "We met yesterday. He's the person Xiaolian cares about a lot."
Yin Tao blinked. "Her cousin?"
When Yin Tao listened to his speech before, she thought he had the air of a bad guy.
After getting to know him again, even the taciturn Xia Lian started talking in front of him. Maybe he's a good person after all.
"Looks like there's still hope for your head." Ye Qingzhou stroked his chin, a hint of a smile finally appearing in his eyes. "So things will be much easier from here on out. We just need to..."
"All we need to do is... kidnap Xiao Lian and have her eat with us when the president isn't looking!" Yin Tao excitedly blurted out.
"Couldn't you have invited the president to dinner too?!"
"Huh? Is that so?"
Yin Tao nodded in sudden realization. Looking at her clear and innocent face, Ye Qingzhou could only shake his head in the end.
It's hopeless.
Even after being cured, this person still drools.
...
As fewer and fewer students entered the school, Uncle Zhang, the security guard at the school gate, planned to close the gate in a few minutes. The next second, he caught a glimpse of the two cousins trying to sneak in from the corner of his eye.
"Xiao Mo?"
Wen Mo's body stiffened abruptly, and he smiled awkwardly, "Uncle Zhang, we're not late, please don't detain us."
Looking at the nervous young man in front of him and the introverted little girl hiding behind him, Uncle Zhang didn't say anything, but waved his hand to signal them to go inside.
"Why is it so late today? In two more minutes, we won't even make it to morning reading."
"I went to bed a little late last night, thank you."
Uncle Zhang leaned against the wall, closing the school gate while looking back at Xia Lian, who was pressed close to him.
"This girl is still so introverted. Do you want to help her correct this?"
Upon hearing this, Wen Mo paused in his steps.
Correction?
He didn't think introversion was a disease.
After pursing his lips and thinking for a moment, Wen Mo turned around and gave a hearty smile. "Thank you for your kind offer, Uncle Zhang, but I think she's already good enough as she is now, and there's absolutely no need to change anything."
As he spoke, he took Xia Lian's hand and walked straight through the school gate.
Seeing this, Uncle Zhang stared at the two's tightly clasped hands in astonishment, looking as if he'd seen a ghost. "Hey, hey, why are you holding hands?"
