How come you're also my ex-girlfriend?

Qin Yifan, who was eavesdropping nearby, got goosebumps.

Wen Xueyu was puzzled as to why the other person would ask this question, but she still explained, "Well... he had a math problem he couldn't solve, so I helped him with it."

"Oh, I see. Hahaha."

Zhang Zhiwen, who was laughing for no apparent reason, looked at Qin Yifan next to him as if to say: See, I told you so, you just have to talk nonsense for no reason.

Qin Yifan didn't even bother to acknowledge him.

Overjoyed by the good news, Zhang Zhiwen suddenly remembered something and excitedly said, "Perfect timing! I also have a math problem I can't solve. Can you explain it to me?"

Since Xu Yan, the newly promoted student, can enjoy the opportunity to get close to Wen Xueyu, why can't I?

He was already imagining the two of them chatting about their studies in a tacit and sweet way, and he could even smell the fragrance of Chanel.

Wen Xueyu looked at him, then turned her head away.

"Isn't Xie Fei here? He's first in the class in math. Why are you asking me instead of asking him?"

Zhang Zhiwen: ?

Chubby Xie Fei grinned crookedly, "Yeah, Brother Wen, just ask me if you don't understand anything."

You fatso, you're laughing at me... Oh well, after all, he's one of my best friends in class.

He scratched his head awkwardly, "Then I won't disturb your rest..."

Qin Yifan, who had no show to watch, suppressed his urge to sneer.

It's said that people shouldn't be in love, and it's best not to even have someone you like, otherwise every step you take will feel like that of a clown.

Thinking about it, his gaze naturally shifted to Xu Yan's face, who seemed completely unaffected.

Xu Yan looked up and met Qin Yifan's gaze. "Is there something you need?"

Qin Yifan shook his head. "How well do you know the people in your class?"

"That's about it. What, would you like to introduce me to someone?"

"It's not impossible for me to help you if you need it... but you probably don't need it now, right?"

"That's not true. You seem to be popular. I might need your help in the future."

Qin Yifan suddenly felt that this newly promoted student was quite sensible. Although he wasn't as handsome as him, he was a decent person.

People gradually entered the classroom. Qin Yifan looked around and said, "You're absolutely right, I'm the most popular person in the class, there's no one I can't introduce you to..."

Just after saying that, Qin Yifan saw the front row of the fourth group, where a cascade of black hair fell down.

Like a fallen leaf drifting on the autumn waters of a pond.

He turned to look at Xu Yan, "Of course, except for Ye Shutong."

……

Chapter 23 Miss Jiang, you wouldn't want this either...

Xu Yan looked at Qin Yifan strangely, "Why get rid of her?"

Qin Yifan didn't explain further, just kept shaking his head, "You'll understand once you've experienced it, but you'd better not try it. That's all the advice I can give you."

"Oh, thank you."

"fine."

"By the way, what's your WeChat ID? QQ is fine too, let's add each other as contacts."

Xu Yan took the initiative to make the suggestion.

Qin Yifan was taken aback for a moment, "Add me as a contact?"

"Is it not allowed? Or is there an entry fee?"

Qin Yifan said irritably, "Do I need your paltry sums? Even though you're a newly promoted employee who's only been here for a day, since you're so insistent..."

"Stop with the nonsense, are you going to add me or not?"

"Damn, don't I need to grab my phone?"

"I understand~ That's what being a tsundere is like, right? It's embarrassing to have someone ask for your contact information, isn't it?"

"I'm shy, my foot!"

"If you weren't a guy, I'd almost see the progress bar above your head, like you're playing some obscure game."

"Get lost! Don't disgust me."

"Ha ha ha ha."

After adding each other's contact information, Qin Yifan casually added Xu Yan to the class group. However, Xu Yan had no intention of commenting for the time being, and put away her phone, looking ahead with a bored expression.

Even without classes, everything is happening vividly. The boys and girls are playing around, chasing each other in childish games, and the little boys playing pranks that make the girls angry.

Only the figure at the very front of the group remained firmly seated. When someone came to greet her, she would only give a perfunctory response, or perhaps just a nod.

Xu Yan's mind was flooded with images from long ago, some of which were blurry and faded like old photographs.

The sounds were quickly dispersed by the school bell, turning into a sky full of floating clouds.

Normal classes, breaks, and evening self-study. Apart from the occasional brush past each other, there was no interaction, and even eye contact was rare.

When Xu Yan finished school in the evening, he was riding his bicycle not far from the school gate when he suddenly remembered something, stopped his bicycle, and took out his phone.

He sent a message to Jiang Yiyao, asking if she wanted him to give her a ride home.

I waited for two minutes but there was no response.

Xu Yan suddenly realized what was happening.

"Oh no, she's going to roll away!"

I got on the bike and started pedaling furiously.

He pedaled the bicycle to its fullest extent, letting out a deafening roar, like an angry lion!

"Um... the last train is almost here, are we sure we can get home if we don't get on the train?"

At the bus stop near the school gate, Xiao Lili had been with the girl beside her for a while.

Several cars had already passed by, but Jiang Yiyao insisted on waiting a little longer.

Xiao Lili didn't know what she was waiting for. Could it be that these cars weren't her favorite colors?

"Oh dear, the next bus is leaving soon, what's the rush? Is there someone you urgently need to see?"

Jiang Yiyao kept a close eye on the time on her phone.

Xiao Lili sighed, "I don't have anyone I'm in a hurry to see, but it seems like there's someone you particularly don't want to see?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Jiang Yiyao's whole body trembled.

Xiao Lili narrowed her eyes, "You seem to be running away from something, hesitating to go home... What happened?"

Jiang Yiyao quickly shook her head, "It's nothing, I just really don't want to part with you and want to chat with you a little longer."

"Do you even believe that yourself?" Xiao Lili couldn't help but roll her eyes. "You've been here with me for over ten minutes, and you haven't looked up at me more than a few times. You've been looking at your phone the whole time..."

"Okay, stop rushing us. Let's take the next bus, alright?"

"...I'm not in a hurry, it's mainly to see what you need."

"Okay, how about we don't go home tonight? Did you bring your ID?"

Xiao Lili's eyes widened. "I like men, so don't mess with me!"

"My orientation is fine too, what are you thinking? I've discovered that you seem naive, but you actually know everything."

"I'm not going to talk about that, the car's here, let's get going!"

Xiao Lili realized that she couldn't be too compliant with Jiang Yiyao, otherwise Jiang Yiyao would start attacking her.

She looks exactly like Xu Yan. Can't these two just be locked in for good?

From the moment she got on the bus until she got off, Jiang Yiyao remained in a state of worry.

To be honest, I really don't want to go home. Damn Xu Yan... how did he actually get promoted?

Don't ask yourself how you know; there's always a way.

Although she did indeed practice that song almost inexplicably, when the possibility became a certainty and was placed in front of her... just thinking about that scene made her wish she could turn into smoke and vanish into thin air.

Singing to him face-to-face alone...that's so weird!

She really wanted to leave, and she was terrified and acting suspiciously on her way home. Oh no, she'd been branded a dog thief.

I carefully entered the building, not wanting to wake the motion-activated lights, and instead used my phone's flashlight to guide me up the stairs.

I was praying in my heart.

It's this late... that bastard should be asleep by now, right? I should just get up early tomorrow and run away as soon as possible. If I keep doing this for a few days... this matter will probably really be off the hook.

Does Gun Dao feel ashamed? So what! He's lied to himself before; if he's lying, he's lying!

She reached the third floor without any trouble and breathed a sigh of relief. Once inside, she didn't plan to open the door no matter who knocked.

With a sense of relief at surviving a close call, she prepared to take out her keys to open the door.

In that very instant.

"Jiang Yiyao is quite good at dodging."

The demonic voice echoed in the upper hallway, followed by the motion-activated lights.

The light illuminated the boy sitting on the steps above, a cold smile on his face.

Jiang Yiyao's eyes widened, and she was so frightened that she almost dropped her keys.

Seeing Xu Yan about to get up and walk towards them, Jiang Yiyao had a mental whirlwind and made a decision in an instant.
