Shocking-It Was Her After All!

As we entered mid-April, the temperature gradually and rapidly rose, and sunny days seemed to appear frequently, much like a young couple whose lives were getting back on track.

The weather has begun to be warm but not too hot, but it can dispel the cold and make people feel cozy and comfortable.

Meanwhile, the new semester seems to be slowly passing by at a beginning that brings both joy and sorrow.

An ordinary Friday.

The middle-aged, Mediterranean-looking teacher standing on the podium, reading from the PowerPoint presentation, occasionally interjected with snippets of his daily life to share with the students who were all fast asleep or Teamfight Tactics.

What a harmonious scene of a kind teacher and a virtuous student...

After all, in university life, as long as the teachers aren't particularly serious or exceptionally "unique," most courses are quite easy to get through. The hardest thing is probably whether your phone can last a whole morning playing games.

But while most people were playing games or sleeping, a small group of people would still whisper among themselves in a corner, exchanging information about the latest gossip.

"Hey... did you hear...?"

"Just tell me already, stop keeping me in suspense and I'll fly away."

In the classroom where a class was in session, two boys were whispering to each other.

The bespectacled boy who first brought up the topic threw the pen he was holding onto the clean notebook, which was completely devoid of notes, and then mysteriously pushed up his glasses.

Although he didn't say a word, his eyes carried a subtle hint.

His glasses reflected the light, and he slowly moved closer to his deskmate's seat. His air of suspense, as if keeping something a secret, made his deskmate increasingly impatient, who couldn't contain himself any longer and urged him on:

"A bottle of strong liquor!"

"Transaction successful."

The bespectacled man cleared his throat, his gaze unconsciously drifting to the balding teacher still lecturing on the podium. He then stretched out his arm and wrapped it around his deskmate's neck.

"Last night I passed by the dorms of 2D, and guess what I heard?"

My deskmate immediately asked curiously, "What? What?"

"Uh, let's put that aside for now and discuss another important event."

"?" The classmate immediately grabbed his neck and began a strong offensive, urging him to tell the truth and stop being so mysterious.

"Calm down, cough... Did you see someone post that photo on Tieba a while ago?"

A hint of doubt flashed in his deskmate's eyes, then he slowly let go of her hand and asked, "You mean what happened with Senior Lin downstairs at Dormitory No. 1 on the first day of school?"

The bespectacled man nodded repeatedly, "It's that photo, the one where Lin Qingyu and another girl are facing each other but you can't hear what they're saying. You can only see the two of them together."

"Now that you mention it, I remember... I think that girl is even prettier than Senior Lin..."

Then, his deskmate shook his head with a mixture of regret and relief. "What a pity, such a beautiful girl is actually the Class Monitor's damn girlfriend."

"But since they are a perfect match, I agree to the marriage."

The bespectacled man nodded in agreement. "There's really nothing to say about that. After all, the two of them are a perfect match, and she's even prettier than Senior Lin."

While it might be considered flattery to say nice things to someone's face, if someone speaks well of you behind your back, it can only mean that this person is truly trustworthy and has a lot of personal charm.

Of course, this was also based on the fact that when Xia Yan had previously told a teacher of a certain subject the deadline for collecting homework, Xia Yan had given them a day's delay, allowing them time to quickly copy and paste.

This is the most important assignment of the entire semester. If they don't submit it successfully, they'll probably face endless retakes.

After a brief reminiscence, the conversation continued.

"So... what does this have to do with the 2D? Don't people on Tieba and other online forums already know about it?"

"Lin Qingyu was pursuing the Class Monitor, but Class Monitor girlfriend found out. Then the Class Monitor and his girlfriend showed off their love in front of the boys' dormitory. Isn't it that simple?" my deskmate said with some doubt.

The bespectacled man sighed and said earnestly:

"Next, the big one is coming."

"You know that 2D and Big Guy share a dorm room with the Class Monitor, right?"

"Isn't this something every boy in our class knows? Can't you get to the point?!" The irritable deskmate suddenly became a little anxious, as if he was about to stage another scene of him forcibly locking up the boy.

"I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush."

"Last night, Mu Feng and Xiang Guan were chatting. It was just the two of them in the dorm, so it wasn't noisy at all. Plus, their dorm door wasn't closed properly, and I happened to overhear some things when I went to the bathroom..."

The bespectacled man slowly and subconsciously looked towards the corner of the classroom. Apart from those sleeping and playing games, plus a few who had skipped class, there were actually quite a few people in the classroom.

But it lacks one particularly prominent combination and one particularly inconspicuous one.

After the back-to-school incident, Hua Xin did not go to school without any disguise as she did on the first day of school. Instead, she continued to wear a mask and hat, but instead of always wearing a hoodie as before, she could only make it difficult for people to see her face.

Let's avoid trouble if possible...

After all, when Hua Xin returned home, she also came across posts about herself on Tieba.

Do you remember the person who always sat next to the Class Monitor?

"That student seems to be a bit socially awkward... Didn't the Class Monitor tell us about that?"

"Yes." The bespectacled man nodded, then swallowed hard and continued nervously, "Last night I overheard Mu Feng telling Xiang Guan ... [That young couple from the last irritable old lady's class logged in again to farm for the Teamfight Tactics, and the Class Monitor ignored his invitation.]"

My deskmate scoffed, "What's the big deal? They might be talking about someone else..."

He then noticed the key point the bespectacled man made.

[Last class], [Young couple], [Class Monitor], [Ignored his invitation].

"You mean..." The bespectacled boy sitting next to him was somewhat shocked.

"This is it..." The bespectacled man sighed helplessly as well.

"That socially awkward person who has no presence at all is the one who is even prettier than Lin Qingyu."

Meanwhile, a young couple, one who didn't need to attend class and the other who voluntarily skipped class, were each pondering something very important.

Hua Xin was in her room, looking at the small round object inside the square package in her hand, lost in thought.

Xia Yan, on the other hand, was intently looking at the hotel information on her phone, scrolling back and forth.
