Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

Chu Mengran really wanted to agree and let Guo Miao have dinner with the three of them, just like before.

But whenever she thought of Guo Miao, a nameless fear would well up inside her, and her body would tremble slightly.

Chu Mengran bit her lip, but ultimately shook her head and remained silent.

Seeing Chu Mengran's reaction, Chen Dong felt a pang of pain in his heart, but he still nodded to show that he understood.

Then, Chen Dong reached into his pocket and rummaged around for a while before pulling out two yuan.

Handing it to Guo Miao, Chen Dong said apologetically, "Good brother, I'm having dinner with Meng Ran, you go eat by yourself."

Guo Miao glanced down at the money in Chen Dong's hand and silently put it away.

He glanced at Chu Mengran with concern.

After a barely perceptible sigh, Guo Miao said, "Alright, Brother Dong, I'll go now."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the school cafeteria.

Chen Dong stood up, looked at Chu Mengran, and said gently, "Mengran, let's go too."

Chu Mengran nodded and slowly stood up, following behind Chen Dong as the two walked towards the cafeteria.

Upon arriving at the cafeteria, the aroma of food filled the air, and students lined up, their chatter rising and falling.

Chen Dong led Chu Mengran to the food serving window.

The cafeteria worker greeted us warmly, "Student, what would you like to eat?"

Seeing that it was the older man asking the question, Chu Mengran immediately lowered her head and remained silent, as if she had not heard him.

Seeing this, Chen Dong quickly said, "Uncle, give my tablemate a steamed fish and a bowl of rice."

Then he said to the uncle, "Give me another serving of braised pork and a bowl of rice."

Although the cafeteria worker was unhappy with Chu Mengran's attitude, he still quickly did his work and collected the money.

After getting their food, Chen Dong and Chu Mengran sat down at a table.

The two ate their meal in silence, neither of them speaking.

The noise in the cafeteria seemed to be blocked out by an invisible barrier, leaving only the soft sounds of their chewing.

Just then, Yu Qin passed by carrying food and saw Chen Dong and Chu Mengran, a smile appearing on her face.

Yu Qin greeted them warmly, "Chen Dong, Chu Mengran, hello there!"

Chen Dong looked up and replied, "Yu Qin, hello, the dishes look good today."

Yu Qin glanced at the food in front of Chen Dong and said jokingly, "It can't compare to the food you ordered, Young Master Chen."

Chu Mengran also raised her head slightly and said softly, "Yu Qin, hello."

"Hello, Mengran."

Yu Qin smiled and nodded, then walked to her seat.

After Yu Qin left, everything returned to calm, but Chen Dong seemed lost in thought.

"Is this androphobia? But why isn't he afraid of me?"

Chen Dong looked at himself and didn't realize that he was anything but a man.

The afternoon sunlight streamed through the windows, gently bathing the classroom and casting a soft glow on the desks.

The male teacher stood on the podium, his chalk dancing across the blackboard, making a scratching sound.

The rhythmic sound, accompanying the teacher's explanation of the text, echoed in the quiet classroom.

The students listened attentively to the lesson, some with their eyes fixed on the blackboard, while others were taking notes diligently. The classroom was filled with a strong learning atmosphere.

As the male teacher continued his lecture, he began asking questions, as was his custom.

After scanning the classroom with his eyes, he called out Chu Mengran's name.

"Chu Mengran, you answer this question."

Chu Mengran had been looking down, lost in her own thoughts.

Hearing the teacher call my name felt like being struck by lightning; my body jolted violently.

She suddenly stood up, the chair making a slight creaking sound as it scraped against the floor.

The sound was particularly jarring in the quiet classroom.

Chu Mengran unconsciously gripped the hem of her clothes, her knuckles turning slightly white from the force.

His eyes were filled with fear, and his lips began to tremble slightly.

My throat felt like it was choked by something, and I couldn't say a word.

Chen Dong, sitting to the side, witnessed this scene and his heart clenched instantly.

He frowned, his eyes filled with heartache.

He sighed inwardly, thinking, "How could Mengran have become like this?"

"I must find out the cause as soon as possible and help her get rid of depression."

Chen Dong turned to look at Chu Mengran and gently comforted her, "Mengran, don't rush, think it over slowly."

Seeing Chu Mengran's reaction, Shen Yue in the back row curled her lip in disdain.

He thought to himself, "Hmph, this Chu Mengran is definitely faking it."

"Isn't it just that she wants to appear weak and vulnerable in front of Chen Dong so that he will like and cherish her more?"

"Thinking that this will attract Chen Dong's attention, how cunning of them."

Shen Yue crossed her arms over her chest, her eyes filled with disdain.

Completely unaware that Chu Mengran might have actually encountered something unspeakable.

Shen Yue was simply relying on her own subjective assumptions and her dislike for Chu Mengran.

This led to a deep misunderstanding of Chu Mengran.

The male teacher frowned slightly when he saw Chu Mengran's expression.

With a hint of concern in her voice, she asked, "Chu Mengran, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Chu Mengran opened her mouth, but only managed to utter a faint hissing sound; she still couldn't speak.

Seeing this, Chen Dong quickly stood up and said to the teacher, "Teacher, Chu Mengran may not be feeling well."

"How about I take her to the infirmary first?"

The male teacher thought about Chu Mengran's grades and nodded.

"Okay, Chen Dong, take her to see a doctor, and notify the teacher immediately if anything happens."

"Ok."

Chen Dong nodded and reached out to support Chu Mengran.

Chu Mengran trembled slightly, trying to break free from Chen Dong's grasp.

But this level of struggle is simply not enough to break free.

Chen Dong led Chu Mengran slowly out of the classroom.

Along the way, Chen Dong asked softly, "Mengran, are you feeling unwell? Or is something on your mind?"

“You can tell me.”

Chu Mengran shook her head, and after a long while, she choked up and said, "Chen Dong, I'm fine, I'm just a little scared."

Chen Dong said with concern, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. No matter what happens, I'll be with you."

Inside the classroom, the students began to whisper among themselves.

Wang Xia turned to Shen Yue and said, "Shen Yue, do you think Chu Mengran is really sick? She seems very scared."

Shen Yue snorted and said, "Sick? I think she's just faking it to gain sympathy. Don't be fooled by her."

Yu Juan chimed in, "I also find it a bit strange, but it would be quite pitiful if they were really sick."

Shen Yue rolled her eyes at her and sneered, "What's so pitiful about her? She just wants to get Chen Dong's attention. This kind of tactic is too despicable."

The students' chatter rose and fell, and a subtle atmosphere filled the classroom.
