"Yeah, but those are just rumors. Junche has been here for a year and is practically a regular member now."

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for the popsicle. It's time to go back." Guangchang stood up; PE class was about to end.

Chu Ling then got up and handed a large bag of snacks to Guang Yuchen, which puzzled him.

"You can save it for Sister Nuanxin too." Chu Ling truly showed himself to be a perfect fanboy. However, Guangchang Chen could also understand why he was so close to him. The core reason was that he came from an ordinary background and couldn't really hang out with those rich kids. In comparison, he shared a high degree of similarity with him in terms of thinking, so naturally he would come to chat with him from time to time.

A peculiar psychology of sticking together.

"Okay." Guang Chen finally agreed, took the bag of snacks, and was about to leave when Chu Ling called him back. Turning around, he saw Chu Ling with her head down, looking nervous. After hesitating for three or four seconds, she finally said, "I have my monthly test coming up, please give me some encouragement!"

Hmm? These actions, these words...

That's not right now.

Guang Chen is 1.77 meters tall, while Chu Ling is 1.61 meters tall, creating a striking height difference.

Is he hoping I'll give him a gentle head pat? How dare he!

Guangchang Chen stepped forward the next second, grabbed him by the collar, and pulled him up: "Hey! Be normal!"

Chu Ling smiled apologetically and gently nudged his shoulder, saying repeatedly, "Sorry, it was just a joke..."

25. The Cat's Prisoner!

……

"Okay, boss, I'm going to change, I really am going to change." Chen Nuanxin's nimble fingers dangled like an octopus in front of Guangchang Chen, and then, at a speed that Guangchang Chen could clearly perceive with his naked eye, she moved the card under the table.

Guangchang's face is turning into a poker face, isn't it?

"How was it? Magic!" Chen Nuanxin was now very interested, her eyes shining brightly.

Guangchang Chen maintained his poker face, like the King in a deck of cards. Then, without changing his expression, he raised his right hand and pointed to the floor beside the table: "It fell out."

Chen Nuanxin turned her head and saw that the card did not fall on her lap as expected, but instead floated to the floor. Her face immediately showed astonishment.

Guangchang Chen interlaced his ten fingers, resting his knuckles on the bridge of his nose, and said in a deep voice, "However, the dexterity of the front fingers is not bad."

Chen Nuanxin felt a brief respite after hearing the encouragement.

"If only my fingers were this nimble when I was playing games."

Lifting something high and then slamming it down is what truly causes serious harm.

Chen Nuanxin turned ashen, as if she had lost all her strength, and was unable to utter a single word.

Guang Chen looked around and soon his gaze fell on Zhou Qianwen, who was collecting homework. The strange experiences of the past few days had slowly put the two of them in a delicate relationship. Data does not lie.

Guangchang Chen reflected on his actions. He had heard it was Qianwen's birthday and learned from Nuanxin that she seemed to like a bracelet from a jewelry store, so he impulsively bought it and gave it to her in his beginner ballroom dance class. She seemed quite touched at the time, but afterward, Guangchang Chen realized he had acted like he was pursuing a girl, which seriously violated his original decision not to date in high school. He had wavered. Had he already been swayed by the atmosphere of this new world after only a month here...?

Guangchang twirled the pen in his right hand, his gaze finally settling on Zhou Qianwen's face, who also wore a kind smile towards others. Or perhaps he wasn't swayed by the world, but rather by Qianwen's personal charm.

……

Guangchang had envisioned becoming a true academic king in this world where love reigns supreme during his first week in this world, giving everyone a shock. However, he soon discovered that reality was quite different from his expectations, because those handsome men and beautiful women were able to balance their love life with their studies!

Is it really true that some people shout out "love without limits" without any regard for logic? Is it possible to rank in the top ten or so in the grade by studying hard for a month?

Guangchang's hard work has only brought him to the middle level so far. Fortunately, with the encouragement of Qianwen and Nuanxin, he can barely maintain this level. Perhaps the high-pressure review has made him a little tired, so he usually engages in some leisure activities. At noon, he plays table tennis with his classmates to work up a sweat. The school also has special shower rooms. After playing ball, he takes a shower and feels completely relaxed.

Besides playing golf, Guang Guangchen would also wander around the entire school like Tan Tu. He hadn't explored the whole school yet; it was extremely large and encompassed all kinds of special courses. Guang Guangchen chose a course that didn't require a large venue. Some students who chose golf courses actually needed a venue, and the money just kept flowing out of their pockets.

Guang Chen had explored the baseball field the most. This time, after passing through that area, he arrived at a new area. His eyes were practically glued to the "new" sign. Looking around, it was still a large sand field—a beach volleyball court! Great, let's sit down and take a look.

Do not resist your desires; everyone has a love of beauty.

Guangchang sat on a bench outside the venue for a while, when he heard a cat meow.

Looking to the side, I saw a pure white cat licking the fur on its thigh on a bench on the other side.

A pure white cat...

Guangchang immediately thought of Shan Yimo. The first time he met her, Shan Yimo had a pure white cat that she claimed was hers, which almost caused a misunderstanding.

Did they get lost?

Guangchang stared at the cat, and the cat stared at him, as if none of the vibrant young bodies on the battlefield could attract as much attention as the cat before him.

The white cat immediately got up, showing no fear of strangers at all. It approached Guang Chen step by step, finally placing its front paws on his thigh, stretching out a big yawn, and leaping up to lie down on his lap.

Guangchang felt quite curious and hesitated for a moment before reaching out to pet it. It didn't resist at all. What a good cat!

Since the cat is here, Shan Yimo should be nearby, right? Hmm... what if we bump into each other by accident and she claims it was intentional? Probably not. We've met twice, so there's at least some goodwill built up between us, even if it's just for the president's sake.

Guang Chen was imprisoned and had no choice but to sit there for a while. He sat there for half an hour, looking around but not seeing Shan Yimo at all. His legs were getting numb.

"Meow~" That sweet, childlike meow was just too much... Guangchang finally decided to take it with him and bring it back to the vicinity of the teaching building first. He didn't know how Shan Yimo had let the cat wander off to such a far place.

I gently picked up the cat. Its body was so soft, like it was made of water. The white cat didn't resist; it just kept meowing softly, as if it were being affectionate.

Stop yelling, stop yelling, I will not give in to you.

On his way back to the teaching building area, as he passed the circular flower bed, he saw that familiar figure in the distance. She had shoulder-length short hair and a tall stature. Generally speaking, a girl with a good figure and a height of over 1.75 meters really stands out in a crowd.

Given the current situation, Guangchang Chen no longer cared about the development of the situation. He quickly stepped forward and said, "Let's return the cat first."

“Um, Secretary, your cat…” Guang Guangchen approached Shan Yimo and called out to her. Shan Yimo slowly turned around, and at the same time, Guang Guangchen also saw another white cat in her arms.

"..." Guang Chen's voice suddenly stopped, only the kitten in his arms let out another soft meow.

It wasn't a cat after all...

"What's wrong?" Shan Yimo asked coldly, her gaze fixed on the white cat.

"Well... I think I made a mistake. I thought this was just your cat, so I brought it back. It seems I got the wrong one," Guangchang said awkwardly. He had only seen it once, and it was a white cat, so he made that judgment. He was being too naive...

"A stray cat?" Shan Yimo stepped forward, gazing at the little white cat, then pointed to the cat in her arms, "My cat has orange tabby ears and black spots on its belly, this one is pure white."

"Yes, so I admit I was wrong."

Shan Yimo remained silent for several seconds before finally raising her head and saying, "Surprisingly docile."

"Indeed, it's not afraid of strangers at all, and it's very well-behaved and cute, isn't it?" Guangchang picked up a cat with both hands, and hung it down.

Facing the cat that was breathing softly, Shan Yimo slowly extended her right hand and said, "Then leave it to me. I'll post a message in the group to ask who lost their cat. If it's a stray, I'll consider whether I want to adopt one."

"Oh, okay." Guangchang was still a little confused. Was the matter resolved just like that? The secretary was more caring than he had imagined. He was the kind of person who didn't say much but thought a lot. He was kind of cute.

I handed the cat to the other person as well. Holding both cats in my arms, I could see that the cat was noticeably smaller when compared up close. Hmm... maybe I really should get my eyes checked.

"If you need any help, just let me know," Guangchang said.

"Not for now..." Shan Yimo paused halfway through her sentence, then met Guang Yuanchen's gaze with her calm expression and said in a breathy voice, "Could you please run an errand for me?"

26. Is this your girlfriend?

……

Guang Guangchen quietly returned to school carrying a large bag of cat food. It was already after school. Following Shan Yimo's directions, Guang Guangchen finally arrived at a secret empty classroom. Standing in front of the door, he had prepared himself mentally, but when he opened the door and looked inside, it was clear that he hadn't done enough mental preparation.

The sound of cats meowing could be heard, and there were at least seven or eight cats of various colors inside. This empty classroom must have been specifically used to house cats.

Furthermore, this location is quite far from the teaching building where students normally study. It was originally a club classroom that was left unused, and Shan Yimo used it to keep her cat. It has to be said that the scale of this school is truly extraordinary.

As for this behavior, Guangchang Chen doesn't dislike it. If he can feed the animals himself, then there's nothing to say.

Inside the classroom, Shan Yimo was squatting in a corner, gently stroking the belly of a spotted orange cat, oblivious to the sound of Guangchang Chen opening the door.

Ok……

Guangchang picked up the bag of cat food, stepped into the classroom, and his voice broke the harmonious atmosphere inside the classroom: "I bought it."

"Thank you..." Shan Yimo said softly, but showed no intention of turning around.

"You have so many cats... You really like cats, huh? Am I causing you trouble?" Guangchang placed the cat food next to her.

Shan Yimo pulled the cat food bag to her, then opened it and poured fresh cat food, some jerky, fish oil, and other supplements into the bowl in front of her. The whole classroom had a faint cat smell, a sweet cat smell. Looking at the cats, they were all clean, so it was clear that they were taken to bathe regularly, or perhaps... someone was hired to come to the school to bathe them.

"It's okay, it's cute." Shan Yimo turned her gaze to the other side, where the white cat she had taken in was burying its head in its food. It looked extremely hungry, and it was about to devour a whole pig in three bites.

"I'll transfer the money to you via WeChat."

"It's okay, no need to turn around, just consider it my act of charity." Guangchang subconsciously wanted to squat down and pet the cats, but he felt that squatting next to Shan Yimo was a little ambiguous, so he could only stand stiffly to the side. Just then, the white cat in the rice bowl seemed to be very intelligent and walked to his leg, tilted its head up and meowed softly.

What a good kid! Seeing my embarrassment, he came over to help me out.

Guang Chen was a little touched, and then picked up the white cat. If he didn't currently lack the energy to keep a pet, he would really like to get one. Well, keeping a pet is definitely not something you can do on a whim. There are quite a few people who choose to abandon their pets because they can't take good care of them.

The atmosphere became a little strange once it quieted down. Guangchang Chen had already started counting down in his mind. He would count to sixty more, and then he would say goodbye and run away.

Sixty, fifty-nine, fifty-eight...

"Have you met with the president recently?" Shan Yimo asked abruptly.

The counting stopped.

"No..." Guangchang Chen had just answered when the memory of his chance encounter with Yan Xingmeng in the corridor flashed through his mind—her image of her in a pure white evening gown...

"Are you deliberately avoiding me?"

Guangchang shook his head: "No, it's just that I didn't run into him. You know I usually don't actively seek out the president without a reason."

She basically fooled herself into it.

"Hmm... I understand." Shan Yimo nodded lightly and returned to silence. It seemed that the only topic between the two of them was the president. They knew each other almost nothing except for each other's names.

"You really care about the president, huh? Perfect friendship." Guang Chen tried to ease the tension, but his mind was still counting down: 29, 28, 27...

"..." Shan Yimo didn't answer this time.

Okay! No need to answer! Guang Chen successfully finished the countdown, then squatted down, put the cat down, and said, "I should probably go back now. If I have any new information next time we meet, I'll tell you."

After saying that, Guangchang stood up, turned around, and walked towards the classroom door.

"Wait a minute," Shan Yimo suddenly called out to him.

Guangchang stopped, slowly turned around, and saw Shan Yimo's indifferent face, which showed no emotion. She held her phone in her left hand and gently shook it: "You can also contact me on WeChat."

"Ha...that makes sense." He thought it was something serious. Before leaving the school, Guangchang had already added Shan Yimo on WeChat. Moreover, his sharp eyes unexpectedly discovered that Shan Yimo only had a dozen or so friends in her WeChat list. His own WeChat name started with Z. Shan Yimo had simply swiped through the list and gone straight to the bottom.

She's beautiful, quiet, and has a strong presence, which naturally creates a sense of distance...

I'm leaving now.

As Guangchang walked out of the classroom, he sensed something was wrong. He turned back and was surprised to find that Shan Yimo had also followed him out.

scare someone to death.

"What are you doing?" Guangchang stared wide-eyed.

"I'm going home too," Shan Yimo said calmly.

Oh, that makes sense, but it would be even better if there were more footsteps when walking.

Guang Chen and the other person kept walking, making it difficult to quickly create distance between them. Walking too fast would make the other person think that they were avoiding her, so they did not create a significant distance between them when they reached the garage.

Guang Guangchen needed to unlock his bike to get home. As he squatted down to unlock it, Shan Yimo seemed to ignore him and walked straight ahead, which made Guang Guangchen breathe a sigh of relief.

He unlocked the bike and put his hand in the bicycle basket. As soon as he looked up, Shan Yimo's head was only a dozen centimeters away from him, her black eyes staring straight at him, which startled Guangchang again.

"What exactly do you want!" Guangchang closed his eyes, calmed himself down, and then shouted loudly.

Shan Yimo blinked, a little confused, and said, "I was wondering if you need my driver to take you home directly, since it's getting late."

"It's nothing... I can just ride my bike back myself. I have to ride my bike to school tomorrow anyway," Guangchang said.

"Okay, then." Shan Yimo turned to leave, but this time, Guangchang called out to her.

"Are you nervous?"

"Nervous?" Shan Yimo turned her head in confusion.

"I feel like you still have something you want to know, is it about the president? But all I know is... um... actually, I saw the president a few days ago, but it was just a chance encounter. She even invited me to be her dance partner, but after she found out I had a dance partner, she left on her own, and I haven't seen her since." Guangchang told him everything he knew in one go.

Upon hearing this, Shan Yimo's lifeless eyes brightened slightly, and she even gave a couple of cute "Mmm" sounds: "I understand, thank you for telling me all this. Please let me know if there are any further developments!"

"Hmm, okay." Guangchang Chen pursed his lips. Although he felt it was a bit troublesome, he could still genuinely sense how much Shan Yimo cared about Yan Xingmeng, his friend. Considering how few friends she had on WeChat, he guessed that she must be quite important to him.

Guangchang raised his right hand to say goodbye to her. Shan Yimo then raised her hand as well, but instead of waving, she pointed behind him and said in a flat tone, "Is this your girlfriend?"

girlfriend?

Guang Chen was taken aback, then turned his head sharply and saw Chen Nuanxin with her backpack slung over her shoulder, eating potato chips with her mouth bulging. Girlfriend? Chen Nuanxin's eyes widened when she heard this, but she continued eating.
