Class 2 Grade 10 of Qingteng Middle School.
"Wow, who's this?"
"So beautiful, a real beauty."
"Pretty girl, can I add your WeChat?"
"Seems like a new transfer student. Her face is stunning, looks a bit like the famously beautiful XXX."
The boys and girls were attracted by this beauty, all restless.
The girl had a bright face, foxy eyes, fair skin that caught the eye, a tall figure with delicate bones. Although wearing the school uniform, she couldn't hide her temperament and looked like a rich family's young miss.
But that was only an illusion.
Luo Manman stood on the platform, the corner of her mouth tilted mockingly.
She was just an ordinary girl.
Oh no, not even ordinary a month ago. Not even close.
"Classmates, quiet down! This is the new transfer student Yan Xi. Two more years together, I hope you get along well. After all, our Class 2 Grade 10 is nicknamed..." The famous nickname "Extinction Teacher Peng" of homeroom teacher Peng Haiyang, the world geography teacher with a beer belly, kept blabbering on and on.
Yan Xi slightly nodded her head and waited for Peng to finish before speaking, "Hello everyone, I'm Yan Xi. Hope we can all help each other."
Yan Xi, a name she picked meaning free rein.
Her voice was clear and clean, contrasting alluringly with her pure charm. Like a half ripe orange, green but with an attractive aroma.
Some girls were stunned seeing her up close. The boys stared intensely at Yan Xi’s face.
Not bad for my training results, Yan Xi thought, her charming smile growing, eyes icy cold deep down.
"Old Peng, move aside, don't block my view of the beauty." The class number two, Tu Qingluan, lazily called out to Peng Haiyang.
Turns out the "sturdy" Extinction Teacher was standing in front of Yan Xi, blocking Tu Qingluan who had his legs crossed while sitting in the fourth row.
Hearing this, Peng Haiyang immediately started yelling at the fourth row, "Tu Qingluan! I haven't settled with you yet for being late this morning! You think you can be so arrogant just because your dad is the mayor? How dare you cross your legs! Get out right now!" Peng's face turned red when angry, forgetting his catchphrase "Ha."
The number two son didn't even lift his head, unmoved, eyes glued on Yan Xi without moving an inch.
In the class, only Tu Qingluan dared to openly defy Extinction Teacher Peng. Aside from having the mayor as his dad, his grades were also top three in class every year, which allowed him to make trouble yet stay in the prestigious high school Class 2 Grade 10 for so long.
"Fine! Brat! Can't get you to move huh! I'll call Tu River over!" Peng yelled angrily, throwing a piece of chalk precisely at Tu Qingluan's head.
Tu Qingluan easily dodged, only showing some reaction when he heard Peng threaten to call his dad. He lazily stood up, "Old Peng, that's not right. Our issues should stay between us, why call my dad?"
After saying that, he slowly walked out, deliberately slowing as he passed Yan Xi, winking at her, "Beauty, want to meet up after school?"
Yan Xi looked straight ahead, seeming not to hear him.
"Beauty my a**!" This time, Peng's grimy rag accurately landed on top of Tu Qingluan's head.
The wet rag that just wiped the blackboard, dirty water perfectly covering Tu Qingluan's head. His hairstyle that took half an hour this morning was utterly destroyed.
The class below burst out laughing.
Tu Qingluan wanted to show off but instead got a head full of dirty water. He angrily snorted and went to fix his hair.
"You're here to study well, not to flirt with classmates!" Peng yelled, beer belly sticking out.
"Teacher, where do I sit?" Yan Xi suddenly asked.
Only then did Peng remember the new student had been standing there a while. He hurriedly put on a smile, cordial again, "New student can pick any open seat. The last table in Row 1 seems empty. In Row 2, there's an open spot next to Shen Qiuyi. Row 3 also has a few empty spots."
"Thank you, teacher."
Everyone's attention was now focused on Yan Xi. A major beauty rarely transfers to the prestigious class. And she's top-tier in looks too. Everyone wondered where she'd choose.
Yan Xi looked at the empty seats, pondering a bit before walking over.
"Can I sit next to you?" Yan Xi gently lifted her eyes asking Shen Qiuyi.
Shen Qiuyi looked at the girl before her, brows slightly furrowed, reluctant to say no. Up close, the girl's skin was still flawless, her exquisite features even more striking.
Shen Qiuyi pretended not to hear, silently looking away.
"Of course! Yan...I mean Yan, you can definitely sit next to her! Right, Qiuyi?" Shen Qiuyi's front deskmate Dong Yaya enthusiastically responded, nudging Shen Qiuyi.
Seeing the class attention on them, Shen Qiuyi reluctantly hmm-ed, angrily kicking the chair leg in front.
Unfazed by the kick, Dong Yaya winked at Shen Qiuyi.
Childhood friends huh, Yan Xi observed their intimacy.
Without overthinking, Yan Xi confidently sat next to Shen Qiuyi, bringing a citrusy scent.
Shen Qiuyi straightened her back, seeming unwilling to chat with her new deskmate.
Yan Xi was in no rush, but the others couldn't sit still. With Peng gone, Yan Xi was eyed openly and secretly by many.
The boys' chat group was already blowing up.
Kongming: Damn, even prettier up close!
BravestBro: Skin's so fair, blindingly white! Who's better looking, her or Ji Yao? I say Yan Xi!
NoSoyBeans: I stand by Yao!
NextTime4Sure: Bros, I'm into Yan Xi's type, both beautiful and alluring.
MomKnowsBest: Isn't Yao more charming and kind?
NextTime4Sure: You sure Yao's kind? Go touch her and ten of you combined still can't beat her. Certified pervert. @MomKnowsBest
Kongming: Based on my many years of beauty-watching experience, I still say Yan Xi looks better. Flawless features, fairer than Ji Yao, different temperaments. But Yao is more intimate, better personality. Yan Xi still feels a bit distant as the new girl.
BravestBro: Kong Jie you old lecher! Observing so closely!
NoSoyBeans: Who cares who's better looking! Our class gained another beauty. Next time Class 2's Meng Chao dares say our class has no good-looking girls besides Shen Qiuyi, I'll thrash him!
TuQingluan: Beauty picked a seat yet? How about next to me?
NoSoyBeans: You wish! Tu, wash all that dirty water off your head yet? @TuQingluan
TuQingluan: Don't run after school! @NoSoyBeans
Seeing the group about to go off topic, Kong Jie mischievously held up his QR code to the new classroom flower Yan Xi behind him, "Yan, add me on WeChat? I'm vice class pres, I'll add you to the class group."
The boy's soft yellowish hair looked quite fluffy.
"Sure." Yan Xi politely smiled at him and scanned the code.
Kong Jie was surprised. He had prepared for rejection.
"You bastard! So quick to make the first move!" Tu Qingluan rushed back from washing his hair and snatched Kong Jie's phone.
The other boys busily grabbed their phones. Some girls curiously watched while others whispered.
Watching the lively class, Yan Xi lowered her head, seemingly blushing, raising a hand to her ear, just enough to hide her cooling expression.
[Don't tell me this game only has this much.]
[What you want, you have to explore yourself. There are no games that are played poorly, only people who play poorly. Luo Manman.]
Yan Xi's fingers trembled, and he suddenly smiled.
[Alright.....then I wish myself an enjoyable game.]
