Chapter 152

Xu Lin and Ji Yun came to the classroom as usual, still arriving together, but recently everyone seemed to care less and less.

On the contrary, some people started gossiping about them, and a few girls specifically spied on them, recording some of their more intimate actions.

This made Ji Yun shy and reluctant to give him any chance for intimacy, though their intimate actions were merely sharing a cup or whispering to each other.

He remembers some young couples who would directly engage in a lip collision experiment in the corner, but of course, there was nothing more exciting than that.

Because there are more and more campus surveillance cameras, the school chooses to turn a blind eye to some minor things, not that they are unaware, but if you go too far, how could the school have no clue?

Of course, that’s what really gets him angry. The school knows a lot of things, but when they don’t have much impact, they turn a blind eye.

Morning self-study continues, with some students reading or slacking off, a small portion studying diligently, and another portion frantically copying homework, fearing surprise inspections by the class teacher at any moment.

“Xu Lin, come over here.”

“Teacher Su is calling you.” Li Bin tugged at him, and he suddenly snapped out of it.

“Okay.”

Xu Lin walked out of the classroom and saw Su Qingwan standing by the wall, elegant and graceful like a lily flower.

“It seems like Teacher Su is in good spirits today.”

“Don’t give me that playful smile. In school, we should maintain some distance.”

“Understand, but aren’t you approaching me first?”

“This is about business, what about your English grades?”

“You mean the test from last weekend?”

Xu Lin recalled in his mind, it seems like he just did this test recently, and he remembered doing it diligently.

“Well, why did your score drop by over ten points compared to last time?”

“It’s not unusual to have fluctuations. I’m not very good at English to begin with, and last time during the monthly exam, I just happened to perform exceptionally well.”

“Then you should study seriously!”

“Yes, yes.”

“Don’t just give me lip service, is it Ji Yun tutoring you now?”

“Yes.”

“So, you two are studying at home?”

“Yes.”

So it must be because their relationship is solid that they’ve reached this stage. Therefore, she is genuinely happy that Qin Yunhe has found a boyfriend.

After all, she is a few years older than her, and Uncle Qin is also eager for her to settle down, so having a good partner for her is definitely a good thing.

But when she asked again, the other party began to dodge the topic, neither denying nor directly answering. Questions like what’s his name and occupation.

The more this happened, the more suspicious she felt, but in the end, she didn’t have the courage to bring up the matter of seeing the packaging bag herself.

Who could this person be? Her choice to conceal the matter became her puzzlement, as she didn’t want to force her friend to reveal. Naturally, she could only ponder on her own.

So, when she arrived at school and smelled the scent of Xu Lin’s shampoo, she got a little over-excited just now.

Just thinking carefully, it’s impossible for it to be Xu Lin. Xu Lin and Qin Yunhe only met for the first time over a week ago, and she was there.

Later, there was the incident with the scam syndicate, and the two of them did spend some time together, resolving the case.

Xu Lin was also commended, although there haven’t been reports yet. But altogether, they’ve only met twice. A young brat like him couldn’t possibly be Qin Yunhe’s man.

Sister Qin prefers someone mature, stable, good at fighting, handsome, and with a good personality.

Wait... actually, Xu Lin seems to fit perfectly! Except he’s not that mature... Hmm, I need to investigate further.

Su Qingwan clenched the carbon pen in her hand, but seconds later, she abruptly let go. But even if the two of them were together, what difference would it make?

She was just his teacher after all, and it didn’t seem so bad for her friend to find such an outstanding young man like Xu Lin, except for his young age.

For Qin Yunhe, whether it was an older cow eating tender grass wasn’t entirely a bad thing, she couldn’t argue against it, she could only offer her blessings.

So why is she investigating and somewhat trying to stop it, it’s because she’s Xu Lin’s teacher, and also his fake girlfriend?

It seems like it, isn’t it! I haven’t settled things on my end yet! It’s definitely not because of me, it’s because of my parents’ reasons, I definitely didn’t intend to do anything wrong!

Su Qingwan suddenly understood, recalling the ice cream Xu Lin gave her and the comfort she provided when Su Qingwan was lost, which helped her overcome her difficulties.

Although she made these excuses to herself, there were some things she had already understood deep down, but she was afraid to admit them.

She was more afraid than when her parents forced her to go on blind dates and spend time with Jia Qing. She was afraid he would reject her.

Xu Lin couldn’t understand why Su Qingwan was so hesitant over such a trivial matter.

For him, the twelve zodiac signs were all well and good, but if Teacher Su didn’t give him a clear signal, he wouldn’t dare to act rashly.

The two of them were like this, separated by a thin wall, yet at this moment, it blocked the shameless courage between them.
