The male protagonist of a sweet romance novel went on a killing spree in the world of angst novels.

In the bedroom, Yanting stared blankly at the mint-flavored candy in her hand.

Thinking back to that day in the infirmary when Chen Xiao came back and took out a handful of candy from his pocket and stuffed it into her hands, she felt an indescribable strangeness.

When she was lying in bed, whether her eyes were open or closed, Chen Xiao's face would pop into her mind.

Yan Ting sighed.

Ruined.

Could it be that she's fallen for someone?

Yanting has never liked any boy since she was a child.

The only man around her was Yan Nan.

This leads to many boys perpetually viewing her as unapproachable and someone you should never get close to.

But then again.

Chen Xiao's face is indeed very likable.

People are naturally drawn to good looks.

She is no exception.

When Yanting first saw Chen Xiao, she thought he was really good-looking.

Although everyone has different aesthetic tastes, Chen Xiao just happened to hit the spot for her.

Yan Ting stared at the ceiling, lost in thought.

I wonder what type of girl Chen likes.

……

"Holy crap? You're going to go after Chen Xiao?"

Gao Meng looked at the new classmate who had transferred less than a week ago with a shocked expression.

"Is it weird?"

Yanting is not a conflicted person when it comes to emotions.

I don't think it's beneath a girl to pursue a boy.

Once she had an idea, she decided to put it into practice, regardless of the outcome, because at least she had tried.

“It’s not that it’s strange or not,” Gao Meng explained. “You don’t know, before you came here, quite a few girls pursued Chen Xiao. Some of these girls were from other schools, and some were very pretty, but without exception, they all failed.”

In short, Chen Xiao is the hardest boy to pursue in the whole school.

So over time, no girls came to try and get rejected anymore.

But I never expected that such a beautiful girl as Yan would want to pursue Chen Xiao.

“It’s normal!” Yanting didn’t think there was anything wrong with it. “People subconsciously pursue beauty. The fact that many people like him means that my aesthetic sense is acceptable.”

Gao Meng: "Then good luck."

She looked at the girl's face and thought that pursuing Chen Xiao might not be such a bad idea after all.

"But whatever you do, don't let the teacher find out."

After all, students who secretly date in school are always easily discovered by teachers.

Yanting: "Yes, I know."

……

Chen Xiao stared intently at the boxed lunch in the drawer.

There was a small note stuck to the lunchbox that read: Thank you for the candy.

As soon as he opened the lunchbox, the aroma of the food wafted out.

It looks quite appetizing.

Thinking it over, the boy took a bite of the food, and then his expression gradually became serious.

Chen Xiao looked down at the rice bowl in front of him and fell silent for a moment.

It looks quite appetizing, so why does it taste so awful?

Unconvinced, he took another bite.

Then he put down his chopsticks and thought expressionlessly, "It really is hard to eat."

But after that day, the other party brought him food for the next few days.

Chen Xiao suspected that the other party was not repaying a debt of gratitude, but seeking revenge.

Yanting was pursuing a boy for the first time, so naturally she had no experience.

But she remembered that Chen Xiao had excellent grades, so she used math problems as a way to start a conversation with him.

Chen Xiao wasn't a very patient person, but seeing the girl's eyes yearning for knowledge, he eventually agreed.

Putting everything else aside, Chen Xiao's explanations of problems are more accessible and easier for students to understand.

Yanting originally wanted to get closer to Chen Xiao through math problems, but gradually, she started listening attentively.

She didn't notice the other person's gaze lingering on her face for a few seconds as she looked down at the question.

……

After pursuing Chen Xiao for several days, Yan Ting realized that Chen Xiao was indeed very difficult to win over.

Although the two have grown much closer, they are still just ordinary friends.

It seems Chen Xiao has no interest in her.

However, Gao Meng fell silent after hearing this.

You call two people who study together every day and enter the cafeteria together just ordinary friends?

It’s impossible even if you think about it!

Your homeroom teacher already suspects that you two are dating.

If it weren't for the fact that you two spend most of your time studying, the homeroom teacher would have pulled you out for separate questioning long ago.

Upon hearing how Yan Ting pursued Chen Xiao, Gao Meng earnestly asked, "Is it possible that Chen Xiao had no idea you were pursuing him?"

Yan Ting was stunned.

"Is something wrong?" she asked.

Gao Meng looked up at the sky and sighed, "Nothing's right!"

The two of them were never on the same wavelength.

Finally, Gao Meng said to Yan Ting, "Why don't you just go straight for it? If it works, great; if not, forget it."

Before Yanting could even confess his feelings, she received a love letter from a boy.

The boy was somewhat shy, and his words revealed nervousness and apprehension.

Chen Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly as he caught a glimpse of the love letter.

His eyes darkened.

Yanting naturally rejected the boy.

However, she was still grateful for his affection and hoped that he wouldn't lose the courage to confess his feelings because of this rejection.

On the way home from school.

Chen Xiao suddenly spoke up: "Yanting, classmate."

"Ok?"

Yan Ting looked at Chen Xiao with a puzzled expression.

Chen Xiao looked down at her and said, "Study hard and make progress every day."

"..."

Seeing the girl suddenly fall silent, Chen Xiao added, "Also, don't fall in love too early."

Yan Ting, who originally wanted to confess her feelings: "..."

did not expect.

Chen loves studying more than she imagined.

No wonder their grades are so good.

For a moment, Yanting actually felt a little ashamed.

Compared to the other person's love of learning, she had a feeling that he had ulterior motives.

Or maybe we should just forget about confessing our feelings?

At times like these, studying should be the priority.

Chen Xiao had no idea that just a few words from him would make the girl give up her idea of ​​confessing her feelings to him.

Chen Xiao, who later learned the truth, said he really wanted to travel back to that day and shut his mouth.

Although Yanting has only been at the school for a short time, he is already a prominent figure on the forum.

On this day, someone linked her to Chen Xiao.

1st floor: Don't you guys feel that there's something off between Yanting and Chen Xiao?

2nd floor: What's wrong?

3rd floor: Something's not right. I think there's something going on between them.

4th floor: I think there's no problem. A handsome man and a beautiful woman is a great combination!

5th floor: It's impossible for Chen to like that Yan Ting. Can you guys please stop creating random pairings?

The fat man glanced at Chen Xiao and thought: No, your classmate Chen really likes Yan Ting. He likes her to no end.

He immediately became depressed just because Yanting was only slightly cold towards him.
