Chapter 130 Recognition
After saving the person, they had to return the same way. Thinking of what they had encountered on the way there made everyone's scalp tingle. Plus, someone would be eliminated after returning, and for a moment everyone felt very depressed. After all, they had been together for a year, and their feelings for each other were definitely stronger than for a stranger who had wandered in mid-stream.
Wen Le, however, was completely focused on his new classmate. He felt that the more he looked at her, the more familiar she looked, especially her amber eyes. However, he couldn't recall where he had seen her before, so Wen Le couldn't help but secretly glance at her from time to time, desperately searching his mind for the person he had met before.
In short, the more I think about it, the more suspicious I become.
Jin Cancan felt guilty being watched by Wen Le, and even more afraid to acknowledge him. He had imagined their meeting would be like in movies and TV series, with ethereal music and flowers filling the sky, followed by his dazzling entrance. That was the proper way to meet, unlike now, with his face covered in dust and dirt, which looked miserable.
Wen Le wanted to go over and ask, but considering the current situation, he decided to wait until he got back. He also didn't want to incur public wrath at this moment. Everyone was already in a bad mood and didn't want to talk to the new student. If he eagerly approached them to get close, it would look like he was deliberately leaving the organization.
What's more, he was not familiar with the other person and had only met him today. It would be very impolite to go up to him and talk to him rashly.
Jin Cancan breathed a sigh of relief when his owner stopped paying attention to him. But he immediately started to worry again. Given Wen Le's temper, if he didn't acknowledge him now, he didn't know what he would do to him later. Jin Da Miao shuddered whenever he thought of the days when test papers dominated him. His owner, when angry, would make him do a whole set of tests. It was truly an unbearable burden.
So it’s better to confess yourself.
Thinking of this, Jin Cancan found an opportunity to confess to Wen Le on the way back. Otherwise, he was afraid that Wen Le would really ask him to write a test when he returned, which would be a very scary thing. Although he was an adult now, he still had to do homework and take exams before graduation. Wen Le asking him to write a test was perfectly reasonable and he couldn't refute it at all.
So in order to avoid being forced to write a full set of test papers in the future, Jin Cancan took the risk.
Wen Le finally understood Jin Cancan's identity. No wonder he'd felt so familiar before; it wasn't just his illusion; it was Jin Damiao. After recognizing each other, Wen Le felt that this way of meeting was quite confusing. If he had a choice, he would rather see her later than meet her in such an awkward situation.
Jin Cancan could roughly guess what Wen Le was thinking by looking at his expression. He immediately felt like he had found his source and said, "Do you think this arrangement is annoying? I think so too. I don't know who came up with this awful idea. It's such a shame."
Everyone looked at Wen Le sideways when they saw him chatting with the new student.
Looking at how familiar the two of them seem, it doesn't look like they just met. They are obviously acquaintances.
Everyone couldn't help but wonder what the relationship between Wen Le and the new classmate was, but they pretended to be nonchalant on the surface. Actually, their ears had already pricked up. Lily, who was sitting next to Wen Le, turned to look at him questioningly.
Wen Le whispered, "Cancan."
Lily's eyes widened upon hearing this, and she looked at Jin Cancan in disbelief. She had always remembered Jin Cancan as a chubby, immature cat who hadn't yet adapted to human form. She hadn't expected him to change so drastically in just a few months. He looked like a grown man now, and anyone would have believed him. He looked nothing like the beautiful young man he once was.
Jin Cancan smiled at Lily, revealing two little fangs: "Sister Lily~" This smile showed a little of her former liveliness and a bit of her old look.
For some reason, Lily couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief when she saw the big cat like this. Fortunately, it was still the same big cat as before, only the appearance had changed, but the internal strength had not changed much.
Little did Lily know that her reassurance was premature. Jin Da Miao had already evolved into a sesame-filled glutinous rice dumpling. While soft and adorable on the outside, his inner strength was a ball of black sesame filling. If you really mistake him for a soft, sticky, and delicious glutinous rice dumpling, be prepared to get your teeth stuck.
Seeing Lily also looking like she knew someone, the squad leader couldn't help but become curious. He didn't dare to ask Lily, so he leaned over and nudged Wen Le with his elbow, glancing in Jin Cancan's direction, his meaning self-evident.
How could this newcomer not understand the rules at all and not even introduce himself? Did he expect the seniors to come over and talk to him?
In this situation, everyone is angry and naturally cannot take the initiative to chat with the new classmate. Even if they are very curious about the new classmate's identity, they have to pretend to be reserved. But it is unreasonable for the new classmate not to take the initiative to introduce himself. He seems even more arrogant than them, and it is hard to like him.
Jin Cancan understood what the monitor meant after a moment's thought. Giving him a slightly shy smile, he explained, "Hello, monitor. My name is Jin Cancan, and I'm 25 years old." After a pause, he said sheepishly, "I wanted to introduce myself to everyone, but I see everyone is tired, so I didn't want to disturb everyone's rest. I was thinking of treating everyone to a meal when we get back to the Imperial Capital. This incident has caused a lot of trouble for everyone."
Although this matter has little to do with Jin Cancan, and he is actually a victim, in order to better integrate into the group in the future, Jin Cancan still gritted his teeth and took the blame on himself, but he will have to pay for this debt sooner or later.
Seeing the newcomer's good attitude, the squad leader's expression brightened a bit. Although he still didn't smile, he could sense that his mood was less tense than before. He pursed his lips and said, "Forget about the meal. I'm afraid I won't have time to come out when I go back this time."
After all, the elimination has already begun, and I guess no one is in the mood to have a meal together.
The monitor thought for a moment and whispered, "It's not your fault, don't take it to heart." Even without you, there would be others, and the school would find ways to mess with them. But the monitor didn't say the last part.
No one is a fool, everyone understands even if he doesn't say it.
Because they were still in the flight and couldn't leave their seats for too long, the squad leader said a few words and returned to his seat. Jin Cancan glanced at the squad leader and curled the corners of his mouth slightly.
