Chapter 21: Chapter 21 The Bootlicker Boy and Problematic Girls. (Please follow!)

Class was nearly over.

Xu Musen had reluctantly let go of An Nuannuan's calf and looked up.

He discovered that the girl had fallen asleep against the wheelchair, serene and quiet.

Her long hair cascaded down, at first glance, she looked like Sadako.

But if Sadako was this cute, "The Ring" would probably turn into a risqué movie about getting Sadako pregnant.

She really has no defenses against him…

Xu Musen slowly adjusted her to a more comfortable position.

But the sleeping girl seemed to find something to rely on, resting her small head directly on Xu Musen's shoulder.

An Nuannuan carried a faint scent of milk, refreshing and addictive.

Looking at her messy hair, Xu Musen couldn't resist gently brushing it aside.

Under the dappled tree shade, the girl's delicate doll-like face was fully exposed.

Her skin was as fair as white jade, her delicate features perfectly arranged, her nose was pert and exquisite, and her pink lips seemed to glisten temptingly.

One could say that, except for her brain, everything was top-notch.

But she wasn't stupid; she just thought differently from most people.

It was hard to imagine what kind of family could raise such a girl, out of touch with worldly affairs.

The summer breeze and the dappled shadows were ideal for a nap, so Xu Musen, leaning against the tree, decided to doze off as well.

…

Meanwhile, on the volleyball court.

Yao Mingyue wasn't focused on the game today; she kept looking for Xu Musen among the boys who were watching.

In the past, he would always be right in the front row, and as soon as she came off the court, he would immediately come over with water and a towel.

But this time, she hadn't seen him at all.

She bit her teeth, her pretty face seeming to redden with anger.

As she turned around, suddenly a bottle of water and a clean towel appeared in front of her.

Deep down, Yao Mingyue still felt a surge of joy. So that guy had gone to buy water for her.

"Ming Yue, here's your water and towel."

But the voice made Yao Mingyue pause as she was about to reach out.

Before her stood a handsome boy in a basketball jersey, deliberately showing off the muscles on his shoulders.

Lv Hong, the class president from the class next door.

Also the main player on the school basketball team, over 1.8 meters tall, sunny and handsome with lots of popularity at school.

Of course, he was also one of Yao Mingyue's admirers.

"Hey, look, Lv Hong is giving Yao Mingyue water."

"It was always Xu Musen who did that before. Now that there's a cold war between them, someone's eager to show off, aren't they?"

"With a physique like Lv Hong's, and he's handsome too. I heard his family is in the business, too. They look quite well-matched."

"That's what you think, but Xu Musen isn't bad either. It's just that he usually acts like a clingy bug…"

The classmates whispered among themselves.

And Lv Hong, watching Yao Mingyue who'd just finished playing volleyball, her short sleeves soaked with sweat, which made them cling even more to her body.

Her excellent figure was simply a knockout for boys in their teens, and her stunning, cool beauty bewitched many.

Lv Hong had confessed to her before but was utterly ignored by Yao Mingyue. The water he brought to her during sports classes was never accepted either.

But this time, he saw a flash of surprise in Yao Mingyue's eyes, and the movement of her extending her hand.

Could it be that she was finally starting to accept his feelings?

However, at that moment, when Yao Mingyue saw his face clearly, all the smuggness and expectation in her eyes turned to ice in an instant.

"No need."

She said coldly, her irritation growing as her gaze searched the entire field.

Her eyes, as if equipped with a tracking radar, immediately spotted the napping figure under a distant tree more than a hundred meters away.

The one lying on the wheelchair… the girl... resting on his shoulder…

Yao Mingyue felt her heart uncontrollably tremble!

She started to walk forward.

But Lv Hong, still holding the water and towel, stepped in front of her again, "Ming Yue, have some water after your exercise."

Lv Hong tried to reveal a warm and handsome smile on his sunny face. Honestly, during high school, not many girls could resist such qualities.

Unfortunately, he encountered Yao Mingyue, and not just any Yao Mingyue, but one on the edge of catching a cheater and filled with rage.

"I said, I don't need it!"

Yao Mingyue furrowed her eyebrows, sidestepped, and at that moment, all she wanted was to confront Xu Musen.

"Mingyue, I opened it for you…"

With a bottle of water in hand, Lv Hong followed her, a bit unwilling to give up, fueling the anger in Yao Mingyue's heart.

She shoved the water aside, and with her phoenix eyes conveying a hint of intimidation, she said to him, "Please, just call me Yao from now on. We're not close!"

After speaking, she left the crowd without looking back.

Lv Hong felt the scalding gazes of the crowd as he clutched the towel in his hand. His gaze followed Yao Mingyue's path and landed on Xu Musen, who was just stretching and standing up, and the girl beside him.

He gritted his teeth and left the crowd.

…

Yao Mingyue intended to directly confront him, but holding back after seeing the girl's wheelchair, she pressed her lips together and turned away.

She had her pride and didn't want others to witness her losing composure.

After all, she had plenty of ways to handle this.

The whistle sounded, signaling the end of class and time to gather.

Xu Musen had no idea he was being watched; he gently woke An Nuannuan.

"Class is over."

"Oh…" S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

An Nuannuan packed her belongings, ready to push her wheelchair away.

But Xu Musen went behind her, saying, "Let me do it."

With that, he gently pushed the wheelchair, slowly strolling across the field with her.

Lying back in her wheelchair and stretching, An Nuannuan tilted her head back, giving her an upside-down view of Xu Musen.

From this angle, the girl looked even more adorably clueless, making Xu Musen feel his face grow hot.

This was truly too much talent.

"From this angle, your nostrils look huge."

An Nuannuan blinked and said.

"Yours are quite big as well…"

Xu Musen said reflexively.

"No way, my nose is very small."

An Nuannuan touched her own petite and fair nose while following her finger with her eyes, which gave a slight cross-eyed impression.

Silly, so silly.

Xu Musen couldn't help but laugh, feeling as if he was taking care of a child.

The gathering dispersed.

Many in the class turned their attention to Xu Musen and the girl in the wheelchair.

Even in her own class, few people interacted with An Nuannuan.

Many sensed that her thought patterns were a bit different, and it seemed that the school's teachers gave her special consideration, usually arranging a separate seat for her in class.

"Hey, isn't that the girl from our class, what's her name?"

"Who knows, she hasn't spoken a word to anyone since she arrived. I thought she was mute."

"How come she's with Xu Musen? Isn't he Yao Mingyue's lapdog? Could it be that they…"

"Haha, a problematic girl and a puppy-love boy, are they playing at mutual redemption?"

"Was Yao Mingyue angry just now because of Xu Musen?"

"If you have a dog at home, even if you don't like it much, you'd feel unhappy if it suddenly started licking someone else one day, it's about losing face, hahaha."

Classmates whispered among themselves.

Of course, some looked on with ill intent. As Lv Hong eavesdropped, he glanced at Xu Musen and the icy-faced Yao Mingyue, narrowing his eyes.

In that moment, Yao Mingyue appeared calm, as if deaf to any sound, yet when her gaze fell on Xu Musen, it was as though she wanted to devour him.

Xu Musen: …

Had he only dozed off for a moment—how did this become such a big scandal?

Meanwhile, An Nuannuan, looking at the cold-eyed Yao Mingyue in front of her, tilted her head with a spark of recognition in her eyes, "I remember you, you're that nice sister!"

Everyone around: ???
