Oh no, the aloof school beauty has been reborn too!

Lu Xing stood still, his mind racing.

Should you just walk up to him and say, "Hey, you're blocking my way?"

It's too stiff and feels too deliberate.

The other party might even develop a rebellious mentality of "competition from a rival," becoming even more enthusiastic.

Should I step forward and declare, "She's my friend"?

That's not appropriate either.

Although it hasn't spread widely yet, it's an undeniable fact that Shen Qingyi is considered a campus beauty.

If I rush in like that, I'll probably be seen as a clown trying to "save the damsel in distress."

Lu Xing didn't want to live in the shadow of other people's opinions.

After a few seconds of thought, Lu Xing suddenly had a somewhat mischievous idea that was likely to be surprisingly effective.

It's simple, he can just go and ask for his WeChat, right?

The logic was clear: if he went to strike up a conversation, he could instantly divert the senior's attention.

As long as Shen Qingyi cooperates and decisively rejects him on the spot, the senior will have no reason to continue pestering her.

After all, the psychological feeling of "rejecting only me" and "indiscriminately rejecting everyone" are completely different.

The former seems like it's targeting someone, while the latter simply means that the person doesn't want to add anyone.

In this atmosphere, even if the senior student was unhappy, he wouldn't be so shameless as to continue pestering him.

Instead, they will most likely direct their anger at his immature junior.

In this way, not only can we help Shen Qingyi out of this predicament, but we can also help her wash away the "arrogant" label that has been attached to her.

The only cost is being rejected once.

It has some flaws, but the method is acceptable.

A tribute to the legendary self-destruct king.

So, Lu Xing steeled himself and started walking.

Over there, the senior was frowning, seemingly trying to salvage the situation by saying something.

Suddenly, a voice cut in from the side.

"that--"

Lu Xing stopped beside the two, trying his best to make his tone sound like that of a normal pick-up artist:

"Student Shen Qingyi."

As soon as he spoke, Shen Qingyi and her senior both turned their heads to look at him.

The senior student's gaze clearly showed strong displeasure.

Who are you?

Can't you see that the senior is handling some business here?

But in the next second, Shen Qingyi's expression suddenly changed.

Like a frozen lake in the dead of winter, a soft ripple is instantly created by the spring breeze.

The chilling coldness and defensiveness she felt when facing her senior had almost completely vanished before her very eyes.

She stared intently at Lu Xing, a faint yet lively smile appearing in her eyes.

"Um?"

"What's wrong?"

Lu Xing: "..."

He was momentarily stunned.

no……

Isn't the speed and magnitude of your change of expression a bit too exaggerated?

The senior student standing next to him was clearly dumbfounded as well.

He glanced at Shen Qingyi, then at Lu Xing, and his expression quickly turned green.

Lu Xing was momentarily stunned by the sudden contrast.

But since we're already here, we can't just run away now, can we?

So he could only grit his teeth, endure his senior's murderous glare, and recite the prepared lines:

"Um, I'd like to add you on WeChat, is that okay?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xing himself felt that his words were dry and soulless.

Shen Qingyi gazed at him, her eyes shifting slightly.

In just a fleeting moment of eye contact, she had already seen through Lu Xing's trick.

This idiot, he even wrote out the rest of the script for her—

He was simply certain that she would reject him without hesitation, just as she had rejected that senior.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingyi couldn't help but smile.

She is clearly kind-hearted and considerate.

Yet they always seem to prefer this roundabout approach, which can even harm themselves.

He had simply forgotten...

Shen Qingyi has never been one to follow the rules.

Especially when facing him.

The smile in Shen Qingyi's eyes deepened, and the mischievous little devil in her heart quietly peeked out.

Since you want to be a good person and help me.

Then I...

Is it too much to go along with this plan?

Thus, under the watchful eyes of Lu Xing and that senior student, who seemed to have seen a ghost.

Shen Qingyi nodded slightly with a gentle smile, her eyebrows curving upwards, almost without any pause.

"Sure!"

Lu Xing: "...?"

Senior student: "...??"

The next second, Shen Qingyi had already taken out her phone from her pocket and smoothly tapped the WeChat QR code.

The movements were swift and decisive.

She even proactively moved the screen forward a bit, her tone light and natural:

"You sweep it."

Lu Xing was completely petrified.

No, buddy...

That's not how it is in the corner!

At this point, Shen Qingyi should have coldly rejected him.

Then he replied meekly, "Oh, okay, sorry to bother you," and turned away with a disappointed look on his face.

The senior student instantly regained his composure, and everyone was happy.

So what's going on now?!

Not only did she not follow the expected script, but she also agreed so readily...

This level of proactive feeding is even more outrageous than the time at the hot pot restaurant.

Back then, at least exchanging contact information at hot pot restaurants could be considered a natural exchange...

What is this now?

Lu Xing hesitated for two seconds, caught in a dilemma, and could only obediently take out his phone to scan the code.

Meanwhile, the student council senior standing to the side was practically bursting with rage.

One second he was sneering, thinking, "This clueless junior who appeared out of nowhere is just here to get himself killed."

The female student will most likely scold this guy even more harshly than she would scold herself.

Reality, however, delivered two resounding slaps to his face.

Why should I?!

As a student union member, when I asked for your WeChat, you just gave me a cold "inconvenient" response.

When it was this ordinary junior's turn, he became all sweet and coquettish, saying "Sure!"

They even proactively displayed their QR code?!

How can this be called treating people differently based on their status?

This is clearly like holding a scalding hot pot and shoving it directly in his face!

What's most infuriating is that Shen Qingyi doesn't even bother with the pretense.

The difference in treatment was made clear and open, as if they were afraid he wouldn't feel the huge disparity.

And then there's this junior who lacks martial ethics—

Do you even know the rule of first come, first served?!

The senior's face turned pale and then red, his expression as colorful as a palette.

Finally, his lips twitched violently twice.

In the end, he couldn't even muster a single harsh word to save face.

Damn it, I've become part of someone else's game.

He snorted coldly, then turned around abruptly and strode away angrily.

Lu Xing watched his retreating figure and couldn't help but twitch his lips.

...and he even hummed.

Do you think you're some kind of arrogant, twin-tailed young lady?

It wasn't until that figure completely disappeared into the vast crowd that Lu Xing finally came to his senses.

He glanced down at the lit-up phone screen.

As expected, after scanning the QR code, instead of the "Add Friend" page, I was redirected directly to the long chat window.

Lu Xing took a deep breath, just about to say something.

Then I looked up...

The girl stood quietly in the sunlight, her phone casually held in her palm.

She was looking up at him with her head tilted slightly, a sly smile playing at the corners of her eyes, her clear eyes brimming with bright laughter.

Those eyes gazed at him with such tenderness.

Lu Xing remained silent for two seconds.

So this is what a school beauty is like.

Shen Qingyi merely tilted her head slightly, her tone carrying a hint of teasing:

"Land journey".

"Thank you for helping me out of that situation!"

A gentle breeze blew by, and sunlight danced on the tips of her hair.

It was like a handful of crushed gold leaf, so dazzling that you couldn't take your eyes off it.
