Ben10: A Romantic Adventure with a Gender-Swapped Class

In the afternoon, the air in the president's office at Chongwen University was somewhat stagnant. Sunlight slanted across the large mahogany tabletop, illuminating the finely floating dust.

Su Zixuan stood in that beam of light, her arms crossed in front of her chest, her slender fingers lightly tapping her arms.

Her eyes were clear yet held an undeniable sharpness, like the first thin layer of ice forming on a lake in early winter, engaging in a silent contest with the gray-haired principal opposite her.

The chips were clearly laid out on the table.

Ultimately, a figure large enough to build a brand new library brought the negotiations to a close.

"You must recruit him, understand?" Su Zixuan's voice was not loud, and her tone was steady, but it carried a sense of entitlement, as if she were simply confirming an established fact.

The principal picked up the warm celadon teacup on the table, blew away the foam, and slowly sipped it. The rising steam blurred the expression behind his glasses.

He put down his teacup and let out a barely audible sigh.

"You've already donated a library, what can I say?" His tone was a mixture of helplessness and a barely perceptible sense of emotion.

Having achieved her goal, Su Zixuan didn't hesitate at all.

She nodded slightly in response, then turned around decisively and her figure quickly disappeared outside the door.

The principal wanted to gossip a bit about who this "he" was that could make the eldest daughter of the Su family spend so much money, but he swallowed the words back.

He seemed to recall all the troublesome things this "little devil" had done in the past, and wisely chose to remain silent. He simply picked up his teacup again, letting the warmth soothe his complicated feelings.

Stepping out of the solemn administration building, Su Zixuan strolled aimlessly along the tree-lined path.

Students passing by turned their heads to look, and some even secretly took out their phones and quickly snapped photos of her back or profile.

It's foreseeable that tomorrow's headlines on the campus forum will likely be sensational headlines like "Breaking News! The eldest daughter of the Su family has suddenly appeared at Chongwen University, what is her intention?"

However, Su Zixuan seemed completely unaware of these gazes and the potential commotion.

She simply lowered her head slightly, her fingertips swiping across the phone screen, her expression focused, as if she were processing some important information.

The idea of ​​driving out for lunch was easily abandoned.

A clear idea lingered in my mind: Mo Bai will come here in the future.

How about... we get a preview of the school cafeteria? After all, I'll be his guide once he enrolls.

As soon as the thought crossed her mind, she didn't hesitate to open her contacts and dial that familiar number.

Not long after, He Xinyan appeared at the cafeteria entrance in a flurry of activity, like a lively little deer.

Her gaze swept across the room and quickly locked onto the figure in the corner, head down, engrossed in their phone.

Su Zixuan was so engrossed in watching that she didn't even notice her friend's approaching footsteps.

This undoubtedly gave He Xinyan an excellent opportunity to "sneak attack".

She crouched down and tiptoed behind Su Zixuan, a mischievous smile playing on her lips, before suddenly reaching out and slapping her hard on the shoulder!

Startled by the sudden attack, Su Zixuan shuddered and turned around abruptly.

When she saw that it was He Xinyan's face, which was full of a smug smile, she couldn't help but roll her eyes slightly and scolded her in an annoyed tone.

Are you a three-year-old?

He Xinyan immediately started giggling without a care in the world, scratching her fluffy hair as she did so.

"Oh, it's been so long since we last met, I wanted to surprise you and liven things up!" She sat down opposite Su Zixuan in a carefree manner, leaned over, and glanced at Su's phone screen with sparkling eyes.

"Hey, what are you looking at so intently? Your eyes are practically popping out... Are you counting those terrifyingly high digits in your bank account?"

Su Zixuan turned her head back speechlessly, her gaze returning to the screen, her tone carrying a hint of nonchalant disdain.

"I'm not that bored, staring at my savings account."

No sooner had she finished speaking than He Xinyan, with her sharp eyes, caught the fleeting image on the screen.

A photo shows a somewhat shy-looking boy, who is none other than Mo Bai from this afternoon.

He Xinyan's curiosity was instantly ignited. She pointed at her phone excitedly, as if she had discovered big news.

"Who's this? He looks pretty young. Is he your cousin?" She leaned closer, trying to get a better look.

Su Zixuan casually turned off her phone screen, placed it face down on the table, and uttered two words softly.

"No"

"Not my cousin?" He Xinyan's eyes widened even more, sparkling with the flames of gossip.

She nudged Su Zixuan's arm with her elbow, a smile spreading across her face, deliberately drawing out her words.

"Then who could it be? Could it be... your boyfriend?" She was speaking purely jokingly, with a hint of teasing.

However, to her surprise, Su Zixuan neither glared at her as usual nor retorted.

She simply raised her eyes, calmly meeting He Xinyan's probing gaze, and then nodded very naturally, her face still bearing that indifferent expression.

"Um"

That single, casual "hmm" froze the smile on her face. Her mouth opened wider and wider uncontrollably, and her eyes widened in shock, as if a whole boiled egg could be stuffed into them right there!
