Cheng Yi was overjoyed.
The more He Jing acted this way, the happier she became, because if He Jing really didn't care, she wouldn't have said such things; she would have just acted as aloof and indifferent as usual.
Having seen what she wanted to see, Cheng Yi turned and went back to her seat.
However, she stumbled into a firm and warm embrace, and the pleasant scent of sea salt instantly enveloped her. When she looked up, she saw the boy's beautiful eyes, which were as clear as a pool. His handsome features were like a masterpiece of heaven, and his soft, thin lips looked very inviting.
Cheng Yi's cheeks flushed red, and she stammered, "Yan... Yan classmate."
That's Yan Hanxi.
However, the boy didn't even glance at her, merely taking a step back indifferently, as if she were invisible. Instead, he curled the corners of his lips at He Jing and said, "Good morning, model student."
The smile in her eyes was like shimmering ripples, more dazzling than the sunlight outside the window at that moment.
Hearing this, He Jing glanced at him, clearly displeased, and replied in a perfunctory tone, "Hmm, good morning."
But this didn't stop Yan Hanxi from finding her adorable; on the contrary, his smile deepened. He sat down beside her, took out his monthly exam paper, and said, "There's a question I don't know how to answer."
He Jing believes him like a ghost.
The all-powerful male lead has an IQ of 280. Even if he accidentally makes a mistake on a test, he's just absent-minded and carelessly hands in the paper. After the test, he can easily find the correct solution with a quick glance. Why would she need to teach him?
"Among the 'Three Good Students,' Laurede ranks first in moral character, intelligence, physical fitness, and aesthetics."
"I'm immoral."
Yan Hanxi immediately realized that his new deskmate was petty and was retaliating for his previous comment, "I am a human being."
Just then, a soft, clear female voice sounded from the side: "Yan, are you correcting mistakes on your physics test paper? Perhaps I can teach you."
The air seemed to freeze for a moment. Cheng Yi smiled gently and confidently. Fortunately, in order to solidify her image as a physics genius, she had her tutor explain the test paper to her in detail yesterday.
Although she didn't understand many physics terms and didn't quite grasp a long list of formulas, she had almost memorized what her tutor had said, so dealing with others shouldn't be a problem.
To everyone's surprise, Yan Hanxi merely lifted his eyelids slightly and lazily asked, "Why haven't you left yet?"
Cheng Yi's face paled, her fingertips clenching tightly around the hem of her suit skirt: "Yan, I..."
"Oh—" Yan Hanxi, whose memory was not good, recalled her previous words, "Thank you for your kindness, Cheng Yi, but we are not familiar with each other, so I won't trouble you."
Cheng Yi was utterly humiliated. Her eyes reddened, and she covered her face as she ran back to her seat.
He Jing felt inexplicably pleased; the unpleasantness from being disgusted earlier vanished completely. She smiled and glanced sideways at Yan Hanxi: "If you keep going like this, you'll be facing a wife-chasing hell later."
Yan Hanxi chuckled and said, "Do you have some misunderstanding about me?"
"Um?"
"She doesn't even deserve it?"
He Jing thought to herself: Judging from the current situation, it's unlikely. I just don't know what the real heiress will do next. In any case, he'll definitely change his mind.
In the first class, the homeroom teacher summarized the results of yesterday's monthly exam. When the teacher mentioned again that He Jing had surpassed Yan Hanxi to become the top student in the class, the whole class was still a little unable to accept it.
It wasn't until the homeroom teacher said, "He Jing is hereby appointed as our class's new academic representative. I hope everyone will learn from her."
Everyone gasped and looked at Yan Hanxi, only to see him with a slight smile and no other expression.
