The sweet and gentle boy is actually crazy and bad.

Huang Kailang, the head teacher of Class 1 of the military training, and the counselor arranged for the students to board the bus.

"Names are posted on the seats. Please find your seat, sit down, and refrain from loud noise or moving around inside the vehicle!"

"Military training is a completely closed-off program. No leave is allowed during training, and cell phones are prohibited. Students who bring cell phones in must hand them in immediately; the consequences will be very serious if discovered!"

Wen Yisheng got on the bus and found her seat. She had gotten up early and was a little sleepy, so she yawned groggily as she leaned back in her seat.

"Hello, classmate, my seat is inside."

A very soft, low female voice rang out.

The first thing she saw was a pair of clean, faded canvas shoes and baggy cotton trousers. Wen Yisheng blinked away the tears welling up in her eyes and quickly stood up to make room for her.

The girl whispered, "Thank you."

Wen Yisheng smiled and shook her head, glancing at the name pasted on the handrail next to her.

It is a lotus leaf.

That guy who got second place in science!!

Oh my god, Mom and Dad! Did you see that? It's a genius! Wen Yisheng's heart skipped a beat!

From elementary school onwards, she had a deep sense of admiration and awe for top students, especially those of the same sex!

She wanted to strike up a conversation with the academic genius, but she wasn't the type to take the initiative.

"Hello, classmate, my name is Wen Yisheng." Wen Yisheng wanted to start a conversation, but after hesitating for a long time, she finally managed to say hello.

The academic genius, clutching his schoolbag, pushed up his unfashionable black-rimmed glasses that covered most of his face, glanced at Wen Yisheng, nodded hesitantly, and leaned close to the window, seemingly unwilling to say anything more.

Wen Yisheng sighed softly. The academic genius really wouldn't bother with a mere mortal like her...

"Ahhh, look! It's Wen Zhi!!"

The two girls sitting in the back exclaimed excitedly in hushed tones.

Wen Yisheng looked up.

At the car door, the homeroom teacher was looking at Wen Zhi with a big smile, as if he were looking at a shiny gold ingot.

"Teacher, I'll get on the bus now."

"Go ahead, go ahead. Are you carsick? Do you need any motion sickness patches?"

"Yes, thank you, teacher." Wen Zhi paused for a moment before nodding.

After Wen Zhi got into the car, the interior became much quieter.

Before Wen Yisheng could look away, she met his gentle, pure eyes, as clear as water.

Wen Zhi raised the corners of his eyes slightly and smiled at her.

"Wen Zhi... seems to be smiling at me."

"He seems to be... flirting with me, sending me electric shocks!"

The two girls in the back seat lowered their voices and whispered to each other, their faces flushed.

"Don't get all lovey-dovey. Wen Zhi looks at even a dog with that kind of affectionate gaze!"

"Shooting electricity, huh? Do you think Wen Zhi is Thor wielding a hammer?!"

"So he really did smile in my direction!"

"..." Wen Yisheng felt a little guilty upon hearing this and turned to look out the window.

Wen Zhi is really popular at school.

A moment later, someone poked her shoulder with something.

Wen Yisheng turned her head and saw that it was Xie Yu who had poked her with the edge of the medicine box.

"Wen Zhi asked me to give this to you." Xie Yu handed her a box of motion sickness patches.

Wen Yisheng paused for a moment, then took it: "Thank you."

Xie Yu finished his task, put on his baseball cap, pulled the brim down, and sat back down in his seat with a blank expression.

Wen Yisheng looked at the motion sickness patch and recalled how she had deliberately said she was carsick and needed to sit in the passenger seat in order to stay away from Wen Zhi. She didn't expect him to remember.

Actually, she... rarely gets carsick.

I feel a little guilty for lying.

Wen Zhi and Xie Yu sat side by side to the left and behind Wen Yisheng. As if noticing her gaze, Wen Zhi looked up.

He smiled at her, then winked his left eye. It was an alluring, captivating gesture.

Wen Yisheng's heart tightened, and she quickly looked away, her face burning, her fingers clenching the motion sickness patch.

Wen Zhi can be so flirtatious sometimes...

No wonder so many female classmates like him!

If she hadn't known that he was so gentle and considerate to everyone, she would have thought he was... seducing her!

Xie Yu glanced at Wen Zhi and lowered his voice, "Are you serious?"

Wen Zhi nodded casually.

"You like her?"

"What is liking?" Wen Zhi asked rhetorically, looking up at the girl's beautiful profile from this angle.

A smile played on his lips: "Does wanting to protect her count as liking her?"

"Protect?"

"Yeah, this society is too dirty and filthy, I want to lock her up."

"That way I can keep an eye on her, protect her, take care of her, and keep her from being corrupted by society, so that she will always be safe, always pure, and always belong to me."

Wen Zhi sighed.

For the first time, the young man felt melancholy about love: "If only I could spin a cocoon."

"Put her in a thick cocoon, wrap her up and entangle her, and no one can hurt her."

Xie Yu listened in silence for three seconds before calmly saying, "Don't you think...?"

"The greatest danger and harm to her may not be society."

Wen Zhi frowned: "What is that?"

Xie Yu: "..." It's you, okay?

Xie Yu didn't say it aloud, though he was well aware of Wen Zhi's eccentric and extreme personality.

Further discussion is pointless.
