Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

The next morning.

Lan Yunxi arrived at school as usual, and sat down in the fifth row of the multimedia classroom with her books in her arms.

A white dress, a high ponytail, pure and refined, with a beautiful, curvaceous figure.

This attracted the attention of many boys around, and there were whispers. Many people should remember what happened last night, since they were from the same department.

There's always a gossip element, no matter where you are; that's something that can't be changed. People are naturally curious, so it's understandable.

Lan Yunxi didn't care about their probing gazes at all. Tong Xuxu, dragged along by her series of calls, arrived at the classroom still half asleep.

She was still chewing breadcrumbs and swallowing too fast, almost choking. When Lan Yunxi saw that her face was red, she immediately handed her a bottle of soda water. "Hurry up and drink some. I'm telling you to get up earlier. You had to stay in bed for five more minutes."

Tong Xuxu gulped down half a bottle of soda water, finally pulling herself back from the brink of death. "Ah...that feels so good! Why did you have to make me audit your graduate classes? Do you know how hard it is for an undergraduate like me?"

Today's class is taught by the strictest professor in the Computer Science Department at Blue City University. He's a master of subtlety, and anyone who's late or absent from his class will not only fail the course but will also be punished to the point of questioning their existence.

Computer science professors don't punish students by making them stand outside the classroom or copy course material; those are child's play. The professor's methods are truly amazing.

He will calmly tell you how much code you wrote today, using code to express your remorse, until he feels he is truly wrong. You need to experience this feeling for yourself.

This is what students are afraid of, because they simply cannot understand it.

The girl in the back seat had attended the masquerade party last night and had witnessed Lan Yunxi and Han Yue's scene. Curious, she leaned forward and asked, "Hey, Yunxi, was that your ex-boyfriend last night? He was really handsome! Why did you break up? Did that boy break up with you last night?"

The girl at the table behind her had a gossipy look on her face, hoping that Xixi's answer was exactly what she was thinking—that she had been dumped.

Tong Xuxu, who knew the inside story, was very dissatisfied with these questions. Xixi had just had a failed crush and cried so sadly that day. You can think about these questions in your mind, but asking them to the person in question is just being irresponsible and is like rubbing salt into Xixi's wounds.

Tong Xuxu glanced disdainfully at the girl at the table behind her. "Do you live by the sea? Is that any of your business?"

The girl was annoyed. "Did I talk to you? What does it have to do with you if I ask Xixi? Are you sick in the head? Xixi didn't say anything."

Then he muttered, "Neither male nor female."

Tong Xuxu has always been someone who likes what she likes and dislikes what she dislikes, and she won't compromise with anyone, except for Lan Yunxi. "So what if it's none of my business? You have a problem with that? Are your parents scientists? They produced a test subject like you."

The girl in the back seat started arguing back, and she wasn't one to back down either. "Hey, who are you? Did you forget to take your medicine before you left home? You keep trying to get on Xixi's good side, you're just a tagalong."

Everyone at school knew that Lan Yunxi had a particularly close relationship with a boyish student.

Lan Yunxi felt uncomfortable upon hearing this. Arguing is one thing, but if you can't win an argument and resort to insults, then it's a matter of character. Besides, it's Xuxu's freedom to wear whatever she wants. "Then what is your behavior? Are you a paparazzi? My affairs don't seem to be your business. Do you want me to teach you the word 'privacy'? It's impolite to pry into other people's affairs excessively. I believe your aunt and uncle didn't tell you that. You're welcome."

"Second Xuxu is my friend, please respect her."

Lan Yunxi rarely loses her temper, especially in public. Everyone has a red line in their heart; if you cross it, don't blame others for getting angry.

The girl in the back seat sat back down in dissatisfaction, muttering angrily to herself, "What's so great about you? You're just desperate. I bet you got dumped, or you chased after someone and failed."

Tong Xuxu grabbed a book and slammed it onto the desk behind her. "Are you being a jerk? If you think you're not ugly enough right now, I don't mind helping you out."

Tong Xuxu's temper flared up instantly, and Lan Yunxi was also unhappy. "Whether I caught up with him or not is none of your business. Your behavior is really embarrassing your parents."

"you............."

During the argument, a male classmate sat down next to Lan Yunxi. His movements were so exaggerated that they created a gust of wind, and the girl who was about to start arguing was drawn to his attention.

A pure white t-shirt, over which was a white shirt with light black stripes, and long legs encased in light blue jeans, making one's imagination run wild.

The brim of the black baseball cap was pulled low, and the black face mask covered the entire face.

It's like the standard attire for a celebrity's entrance.

The striped shirt buttons at the wrists were undone, folded twice to the elbows, revealing tanned skin, firm muscles, and a powerful, masculine energy.

Simple, comfortable, clean, sexy and wild, with a touch of mystery.

Lan Yunxi and Tong Xuxu were not in a good mood because of the argument with the student behind them. They did not notice the male classmate sitting next to them. A moment later, the professor came in, carrying a few books under his arm, and walked briskly toward the podium.

With his black and white hair and the marks of time etched on his face, the professor gently placed the book on the table, turned on his computer, and prepared to project his lecture.

Seeing that the male classmate next to Lan Yunxi not only didn't have any books but was also wearing a mask and hat, Tong Xuxu had a change of heart. He bypassed Lan Yunxi and reminded him, "Hey buddy, let me tell you, this professor is fierce. Don't be fooled by his kind face; he's got a lot going on."

"Just some friendly advice. If you don't want to die from writing code, I suggest you take off your full protective gear right now. You're welcome."

Lan Yunxi wasn't that gossipy, nor did she look to her left. She simply opened her book quietly to prepare for class and take notes.

"Hey you in the fifth row, while I'm in a good mood today, hurry up and take off your cool outfit."

The professor reminded him.

Upon hearing this, the man reached out his long, slender hand and took off his hat, then his mask. Tong Xuxu was stunned when the mask came off.

The mechanical impact struck Lan Yunxi, who was bumped several times. Lan Yunxi turned her head and looked at Tong Xuxu in confusion, asking, "What's going on? Are we getting ready for class?"

Tong Xuxu didn't speak, but simply raised her chin and gestured for Lan Yunxi to look to her left.

Following her guidance, Lan Yunxi turned her head slightly to look at her left side. An extremely handsome face came into her view, and she froze. Her throat instinctively swallowed, and her heartbeat became erratic.

The professor's praise came from the podium again; he seemed to be in a good mood today. "A rather handsome young man, why do you hide your good looks? Are you afraid of attracting too many attention?"

"You must not wear masks or hats to my classes from now on."

The male student smiled and politely said to the professor on the podium, "I'll remember that, Professor. I'm just worried about upsetting my future girlfriend, so I'm being virtuous."

Uphold male virtues.

Upon hearing this, Lan Yunxi remained silent, frowning slightly as she looked at the male classmate. She gasped in shock. Did those words really come from his mouth?

The next second, she quickly looked away, covered half her face, and explained to Tong Xuxu with her eyes: I really don't know.

The girl in the back seat was smitten. She thought the guy was handsome when she first saw him, and now he's even more handsome. What did he just say? A future girlfriend? Well, she doesn't have one yet.

Who cares what his relationship is with Lan Yunxi? As long as they're not together, she still has a chance. Saying this, she reached out and patted the man in front of her on the shoulder, "Hey, handsome, can I have your number?"

He didn't answer, but took out a tissue from his pocket and wiped his shoulder where he had been bumped, patted it twice in disgust, and then wiped his hands. His slender fingers had distinct knuckles and were full of tension.

Lan Yunxi couldn't help but turn around and look at his series of actions with curiosity. Her disdain was obvious. After watching for a while, she looked away again and told herself to calm down.

Without turning his head, he said to the girl in the back seat, "Are your parents' professions kicking people off walls?"

The girl was confused. What did she mean? Did she know about her family situation? Her mother ran a training center, and her father was a construction contractor; their family was quite well-off. "Ah... my mom is..."

Tong Xuxu certainly recognized the man, and she was quite pleased with this move, as it earned her some goodwill.

Before the girl in the back seat could finish introducing Tong Xuxu, he interrupted her and kindly said to the girl who had just had a fight, "You can't even understand that I said you stole someone else's girlfriend? Are you stupid?"

Upon hearing this, the girl at the table behind her stomped her foot under the table in anger, "Hmph."

Tong Xuxu pinched Lan Yunxi's soft, smooth leg under the table. The skin was so delicate that it left a red mark immediately, causing Lan Yunxi to wince in pain. She leaned closer and whispered, "Ah... what are you doing?"

"I'm helping you to clear your head, to clear your head, because I'm afraid you'll make a mistake."

Tong Xuxu: This man is so damn handsome, and he's so roguish. Even when he's arguing with people, he's so calm. It's so easy to be captivated by him.

Lan Yunxi continued in a low voice, "You're too rough, it hurts so much."

Tong Xuxu: "You won't learn your lesson if I don't put in the effort."

Lan Yunxi: ".............." You don't have to torture yourself to learn a lesson.

The two thought they were speaking very quietly, and assumed the man next to them was deaf, so they chatted in hushed tones.

He leaned casually to one side, propping his face up with one hand, staring at Lan Yunxi who dared not look at him. He found her particularly adorable, and with a flick of his tongue against the corner of his lips, he added a touch of roguishness. He lowered his voice and asked, "You still haven't answered my question from last night. Running away won't solve anything."

Lan Yunxi didn't like hearing this, and Tong Xuxu couldn't stop her. She took a deep breath, tilted her body to the side like him, reminded herself to stay calm, and stared at him intently.

The two were in the same position, their eyes meeting, one filled with love, the other with resentment.

Lan Yunxi said with a hint of anger, but her voice was soft and sweet, "You're so hypocritical. When I was pursuing you, you didn't react, but now that you're asking me questions, am I supposed to answer them? By that logic, are you also running away? Humph."

The little girl had a determined look in her eyes. Although her voice was soft, it was full of confidence and aura, like someone who had come to punish someone.

Han Yue wasn't angry. Instead, he chuckled at the girl's forced bravado, his eyes filled with doting affection. He responded softly, "Mm."

Lan Yunxi: I said so much, and you only said one word?

"I'll ask you one more time now, is it too late to answer your question before you go back to Blue City?" Han Yue asked again with a smile in his eyes.

Lan Yunxi held her breath, but in reality, she was once again attracted by Han Yue's good looks, and her composure was thrown into disarray. She forced herself to regain her confidence, "It's too late."

After saying that, he quickly looked away. His eyes were as deep as the sea, as if they were about to suck her in. If they had looked at each other for another second, he might have changed his mind and said it wasn't too late.

Han Yue remained concise and expressionless, simply replying, "Hmm."

Tong Xuxu: This person probably hasn't had much schooling; their vocabulary is severely lacking.

How will I communicate with Xixi from now on? Just say "uh-huh," "ah," "uh-huh," and "ah"?

"To the boys and girls in the fifth row from the back: please don't date or show off your love in my class. Focus on your studies."

The professor pointed the back of his head at them as a reminder.

Today's professor was exceptionally kind and patient.

This statement doesn't name names, so as long as the person involved doesn't speak up, no one will know who it is. Besides, there aren't just two people in the fifth row; there's a whole row.

A deep, magnetic voice echoed in the large classroom, "Yes, Professor."

The professor nodded in satisfaction, indicating that the child was a good child.

Lan Yunxi is drunk. Doesn't that mean they're admitting they're a couple?

When did she agree? No, she didn't.

She turned around angrily, her cheeks puffed out, and asked, "When did I agree to that? I didn't." She seemed very angry.

Han Yue still propped his head up, turned his head to look at her small face, and curled his lips into a smile, "Mmm."

Lan Yunxi: "........."

Tong Xuxu: Xixi is finished. She can't outmaneuver this big bad wolf at all. He's so cunning and ruthless. He came to teach her a lesson and then falsely declared his dominance.

It was witnessed by the professor.

Niubi.
