Chapter 126 Funny
Is the scenery on the other road better? Only those who have the opportunity to try and fail can give it a shot.

Qin Zhao will only choose the path she deems best and least risky.

After giving some instructions, the school doctor joked, "There aren't many people here today. If you want to sleep, go ahead and sleep. I'll give you a sick leave slip."

Qin Zhao said thank you.

The school doctor gave them the space.

Qin Zhao had almost finished sleeping, so she lifted the covers and prepared to go back to the classroom.

Shen Yanci: "Won't you sleep a little longer?"

"I've had a good sleep," Qin Zhao said, looking at him. "If you're sleepy, you can rest here."

Anyway, there aren't many classes in the senior year of high school.

Shen Yanci grabbed her wrist: "Is it because of me?"

"Did I put pressure on you?" His voice was a little hoarse.

Qin Zhao lowered his eyelids and curled his fingers slightly.

"Qin Zhao likes it—"

“Brother Yanci.” Qin Zhao interrupted him, forcing a smile, and spoke quickly, “I probably had a fever yesterday, and my mind has been very confused these past few days. I can’t remember some things clearly, and my memory is very blurry. It feels like a hallucination.”

She was somewhat incoherent: "I really haven't been able to think lately. You... maybe I've misunderstood you, or maybe you've misunderstood me."

But I can't explain this misunderstanding right now.

"I don't know, I don't think... Can I go to class first?"

Her gaze was filled with avoidance and pleading.

It looks like a polite refusal.

Shen Yanci's throat tightened. He thought she liked him a little too, but was he being too confident?

He smirked: "Of course."

He had felt uneasy ever since she didn't reply to his texts last night, his heart felt like it was hanging in the air, and today it finally landed, crashed to the ground.

He released her hand.

Qin Zhao moved his lips, but finally only said, "Brother Yanci, remember to drink some warm water."

Shen Yanci lifted his eyelids slightly to look at her.

She looked away and ran away.

Shen Yanci lowered his head slightly, sunlight streaming through the window and onto the white gauze, casting an inexplicable sense of loneliness on him.

Qin Zhao cared for him and indulged him, but he also cruelly drew a line that he would not allow him to cross.

Qin Zhao returned to the classroom, and Jiang Man immediately surrounded him:
"Zhaozhao, are you alright? Why do you have a fever?"

Qin Zhao smiled at her: "It's nothing, I'm just a little tired."

"What did you do to get so tired that you have a fever? You spent the whole night writing papers?" Jiang Man didn't believe it, but her years of shipping couples made her have some inappropriate thoughts.

She asked tentatively, "Were you with Shen Yanci yesterday?"

Qin Zhao: "What's wrong?"

"nothing."

That means being together.

No, no, no.

It's not what she thought.

Jiang Man's heart leaped with joy: "You guys yesterday... no, do you want to go back and rest for a bit?"

"No need." Qin Zhao felt much better after sleeping.

Jiang Man really wanted to ask for details, but she didn't dare to. So she helped Shen Yanci out: "You had a fever today, and Shen Yanci was so worried. You have no idea what his expression was like. He was so panicked."

He carried you to the infirmary, he ran there.

You know what, he's actually quite strong.

"..."

Jiang Man showed her the photos on his phone.

In the photo, Shen Yanci is holding her, and she seems oblivious, her arms and legs hanging down as she nestles in his arms.

Jiang Man was very satisfied with these photos; they'd easily get over 10,000 views online. He has boyfriend charm! Great physique! Great tension! And plenty of sweet moments!
Amazing picture!

She asked happily, "Did I take a good picture?"

Qin Zhao lowered his eyelids and hummed in agreement: "Very good, but could you please delete it?"

"..."

Jiang Man immediately hid her phone behind her back: "If it's so good, why did you delete it?"

What's the logic behind this?!
Qin Zhao had his own concerns.

Same-sex couples are a minority after all. She has learned some things about it and can understand, but some people will still have prejudices against them.

She didn't want Shen Yanci to get involved in this kind of thing. "Don't worry, I won't post it. I'll just keep it to myself..." Jiang Man bit her lip, "to admire my own photography skills."

"Do you want the photo? I can send you a copy."

"..."

Jiang Man scrolled through her phone for a while, then laughed so hard she bent over, showing Qin Zhao a post she'd come across: "Confessed to her crush and then found out he's gay..."

"..."

Comments below:

"Then we'll have to use this screenshot."

"That's great! We can be sisters now, don't you think, sisters?"

"I've liked three boys, and they were all..."

“That’s very life-like.”

Is that Wanchai Ferry Pier you're looking for?

Good news: There are no other women. Bad news: There are no women.

"..."

Qin Zhao: "Is it funny?"

Jiang Man: "Isn't it funny?"

"..."

Qin Zhao asked slowly, "What if the guy you like is gay?"

"Become his sister, and then ship the two of them."

"..."

Qin Zhao hesitated for a moment, poking at his pen, then asked, "Manman, if a boy confesses his feelings to someone who looks like a boy but is actually a girl, and he also believes that the girl is a boy, is he gay?"

“Of course,” Jiang Man said without hesitation. “They hire gay men. There are street videos like this. A blogger tries to pick up a guy, ends up with a female lesbian, and after finding out the truth, runs away in shame.”

"When that guy finds out, his expression will definitely be more interesting than the blogger's. After all, the blogger was just trying to chat him up, and he confessed his feelings, hahaha! He'll be so embarrassed."

"..."

Jiang Man: "Don't you think it's hilarious?"

Qin Zhao gave a vague "hmm": "Funny."

"..."

Qin Zhao didn't take out his phone until the afternoon and noticed a new message on his pinned WeChat account, sent around 1 a.m. the previous night.

Which flavor of cake do you think is the best?

Like a subtle probing.

Qin Zhao didn't check his phone yesterday, and he didn't check it again after setting his alarm this morning.

This message lay dormant for 15 hours.

Sometimes she really wondered if she had misheard something yesterday.

But the thought that he might actually like the character she played made it impossible for her to accept his kindness without feeling at ease.

Nighttime can cloud one's judgment. If she had seen this text message last night, would she have been happier?

But it's daytime now, and she's fully awake.

But this looks like a perfectly normal text message.

I like the XX flavor.

The answer seems to continue to be endlessly ambiguous.

Qin Zhao let out a sigh of relief and slammed his phone shut in annoyance.

When Qin Zhao left the school gate after school, he walked very slowly.

She was a little unsure how to face Shen Yanci.

"According to the rules, I will tell the truth."

Qin Zhao only now realized that those words were a warning.

She shouldn't have asked him those questions; she didn't seem to handle them well, regardless of whether his answer was hers or not.

She lingered, heading towards the spot where Shen Yanci often used to be.

nobody.

Qin Zhao looked around.

There was no trace of Shen Yanci.

Yan Cige: Relax a bit, then tighten up again.
