Yu Juan also said, "Yes, Yueyue, don't cry. It makes us feel bad too."

"If you have any grievances, just tell us, and we'll solve them together."

Hu Yanghui looked at Shen Yue, who was crying sadly, and felt very sad.

He wanted to comfort her, but dared not reach out and touch his beloved goddess, so he moved a little closer.

Hu Yanghui's eyes were filled with heartache and helplessness; he didn't know what to do.

It was at this moment that Hu Yanghui noticed some marks on Shen Yue's long, white neck.

Hu Yanghui asked in confusion, "Yueyue, what happened to your neck? It looks like you're injured."

He thought it was a hickey left on Shen Yue by someone who had bullied her, but he didn't know it was a hickey left by Chen Dong on Shen Yue.

Although I've already applied the medicine, there's still a slight trace left.

At the same time, Wang Xia and Yu Juan also saw this.

Wang Xia asked in surprise, "Yueyue, what happened to your neck? Did someone bully you? Tell us quickly!"

Yu Juan asked nervously, "Yueyue, what exactly happened? Don't try to hide it from us."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yue immediately stopped crying.

She sobbed as she pulled up her collar to cover her neck, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes.

Shen Yue said in a flustered manner, "No, it's nothing, I just tripped and fell on the playground."

Wang Xia and Yu Juan were stunned for a moment, instinctively feeling that the truth was not as Shen Yue had said.

Wang Xia frowned and said softly, "Really? Yueyue, I don't think so. Don't lie to us."

Yu Juan also whispered, "Yes, Yueyue, is there something you're having trouble telling us?"

“If you don’t want to talk about it, we won’t force you, but don’t try to bear it all by yourself.”

Hu Yanghui opened his mouth, but dared not say anything.

His eyes were filled with doubt and worry, wondering what had happened to Shen Yue.

The boys in the class all looked and spoke with great concern.

One of the boys said, "Oh dear, Shen Yue must have been wronged. I feel so sorry for her."

"Who on earth is so bold as to bully our school beauty goddess?"

Another boy said, "If I find out who bullied Shen Yue, I will definitely not let him get away with it. I will let him know the consequences of bullying Shen Yue."

Meanwhile, the other girls in the class were whispering about Shen Yue.

One girl said, "Shen Yue is such a grown-up, yet she cries like a child after falling down. She's so spoiled."

Another girl responded, "Who can blame her when she's beautiful, has a great figure, and is the school's most beautiful girl and goddess?"

"Of course, they are different from us who are average-looking and whose bodies have hardly developed."

"They have the right to be spoiled."

Afterwards, Shen Yue pulled Yu Juan along, and Yu Juan bent down slightly.

Shen Yue whispered in her ear, "Yu Juan, tell Tao Hao from Class 8 to wait for me in the grove after dinner."

Yu Juan nodded in agreement without saying a word.

She knew that Shen Yue wanted to confide in Tao Hao.

As Shen Yue's best friends, Wang Xia and Yu Juan were unaware of their relationship.

Because Shen Yue only told them that Tao Hao was her cousin, the two of them believed it to be true.

After that, Shen Yue simply buried her head in her desk and stopped crying, seemingly wanting to rest.

Upon seeing this, the students in the class stopped discussing it.

But everyone was filled with doubt, wondering what had happened to Shen Yue.

In the afternoon, the bell rang to end the last class.

The students began packing their things, preparing to go home or do their own things.

Chu Mengran didn't rush to pack her things. She sat in her seat, looking at Chen Dong with some hesitation.

Chu Mengran said softly, "Chen Dong, I'll be going now. See you tomorrow."

Chen Dong paused slightly upon hearing Chu Mengran's words, then thought for a moment and replied with a smile, "Mengran, don't rush off."

"I was a little tired at noon today, and I haven't fully recovered by the afternoon."

"It's not suitable to ride a bicycle home for dinner. The round trip isn't good for my health right now."

"How about I treat you to dinner? I can stay and rest a bit more after dinner."

Chu Mengran was taken aback, then quickly waved her hand and said, "How can I do that? You've been treating me to lunch every day lately, how can I let you treat me to dinner again?"

"so……"

"Wouldn't that mean you're supporting me?"

Her voice grew softer and softer, her face flushed with embarrassment.

Chen Dong smiled, his eyes darted around, and he suddenly stood up, then pretended to be in discomfort, clutching his lower back.

Chu Mengran immediately noticed this, her eyes filled with tension and concern.

He quickly asked, "Chen Dong, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Chen Dong frowned, pretending to be in pain, and said, "I bumped into something when I went out at noon. Maybe eating more food later will help."

Chu Mengran was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that Chen Dong was just using this as an excuse.

But seeing Chen Dong's pained expression, she couldn't bear to refuse.

Chu Mengran bit her thin lips, lowered her head, and said shyly, "Since that's the case, then, let's have dinner together tonight."

Chen Dong's feigned pain vanished instantly, and he said cheerfully, "It's settled then. Let's go to the cafeteria first, take our books, and study for a while."

Chu Mengran nodded and began packing her things.

At this moment, Guo Miao walked over.

Seeing Chen Dong and Chu Mengran's expressions, he grinned and asked Chen Dong, "Brother Dong, what are we having for dinner at your place tonight?"

Chen Dong shook his head helplessly and said, "I bumped into something at noon and I don't feel strong enough to go back."

"I plan to have dinner at the school cafeteria too, and then I'll rest for a bit before deciding."

"Would you like to come with me? I'll treat you to braised pork and steamed fish."

Guo Miao blinked and glanced at Chu Mengran.

He muttered to himself, "A bump? What does a bruise on the lower back have to do with the legs of someone riding a bicycle?"

"I guess Dong-ge is at it again, prioritizing his girlfriend over his friends and making excuses to spend more time with Chu Mengran."

Then Guo Miao nodded and smiled, "Okay, Dong-ge, let's have dinner at the school cafeteria then."

As the saying goes, "If you don't eat it, you're wasting your time; it doesn't matter where you eat it

Don't underestimate my name, Fat Cat!

Afterwards, Chen Dong, Chu Mengran, and Guo Miao took their textbooks and went to the cafeteria ahead of time.

In the grove of trees on the playground, Shen Yue stood quietly, staring blankly ahead.

Her feelings were very complicated; she didn't know how Tao Hao would react when he arrived.

Not long after, Tao Hao ran over excitedly.

He was initially happy, but seeing Shen Yue like this, his mood immediately soured.

Tao Hao quickly stepped forward, grabbed Shen Yue's hand, and asked, "Yueyue, what's wrong? What happened?"
