Campus Rumors with Gan Yan Yu

Given Gan Yan Yu's current physical condition, she wouldn't be allowed back to school without a hospital rehabilitation certificate.

The only explanation was—

This girl must have snuck in herself.

If she got caught, she'd be disciplined!

What an idiot!!

With class about to start, Lin Tian couldn't bother checking his messages anymore. He put away his phone and walked into the classroom.

However, the moment he stepped inside.

Lin Tian was instantly surrounded by his classmates' intense gazes.

Expressions of curiosity, shock, envy, and even fear.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Lin Tian, from the doorway all the way until he returned to his seat.

Lin Tian knew exactly what was going on without even needing to guess.

Gossip spread through high school much faster than the speed at which Momono Ki Kana was caught shoplifting at the convenience store.

Just how much of a stir did Gan Yan Yu cause?

It wasn't really about what she did, but rather that Gan Yan Yu herself had a 100% chance of drawing attention wherever she went!

"That girl just now was so cute. Is she Lin Tian's girlfriend?"

"I think she must be. Didn't we hear before that Lin Tian had a soulmate who was more than just a girlfriend?"

"Right! I heard that too. They say she's been silently protecting Lin Tian for years, his white moonlight. It has to be her!"

"Ah~ that girl is really beautiful. Even as a girl, I'm totally smitten!"

"..."

Before the teacher entered the classroom, the students began their hushed discussions.

The voices weren't loud, but they all clearly reached Lin Tian's ears.

When did Lin Tian ever have a white moonlight?

Well, after the Douyin video last time, he already felt like he was getting enough attention in class.

Now, with this added blow, Lin Tian, who had been hunched over, finally felt his back break.

However, the whispering wasn't over yet.

The girl sitting in front of Lin Tian turned around:

"Lin Tian, who was that girl who came looking for you just now?"

The girl's name was Su Ran, the class representative.

She had short hair and big eyes. In Class A, where most students had excellent grades but few beauties, she was the undisputed class beauty.

Xu Yong once boasted about having masturbated to her photo, though the truthfulness of that claim was unknown; it might have been twice.

Su Ran's English was excellent, but math was her weak point. She often brought her math problems to Lin Tian for help, making her one of the few people Lin Tian could actually talk to at school.

Lin Tian didn't know why Su Ran was interested, so he casually replied:

"A friend."

"Eh, just a friend? She's really good-looking. I almost fell for her just now, haha."

When Su Ran praised someone as "good-looking," it was worth questioning.

After all, this girl was widely known as a "green tea" who supposedly only complimented those who posed a threat to her, especially those prettier than her.

"Yeah, a friend," Lin Tian emphasized again.

"Oh~"

Su Ran seemed about to say more, but at that moment, the teacher walked into the classroom, forcing her to turn back around.

Compared to these rumors, Lin Tian was more worried about Gan Yan Yu's situation now.

He opened their chat history but only saw one message.

[Lin Tian, I need to see you.]

It was sent an hour ago.

Lin Tian had been in class at the time and hadn't checked his phone. In fact, he was usually very focused during class.

He hadn't checked his phone for just an hour, and this girl had already stormed her way to school?

Even catching someone cheating wouldn't be this intense.

Lin Tian immediately sent a message: [Where are you?]

To his surprise, Gan Yan Yu replied instantly:

[Are you free at noon?]

[Yes.]

Then, Gan Yan Yu didn't reply to his message again.

As Lin Tian was wondering, Xu Yong beside him teased:

"What's wrong, Moonlight Brother, did your little cat come to school to find you?"

"I'm your Grandpa Moonlight."

Returning to the topic of borrowing money, Lin Tian felt quite helpless.

Even if he really got three thousand yuan from Xu Yong, it was still a considerable distance from buying the piano.

He couldn't possibly take out a loan for the remaining money, could he?

"I think, since you play the piano so well, you could totally find a part-time job singing and playing," Xu Yong suggested.

"Too slow."

Setting aside whether a high school student could find such a job, even if he did, earning five thousand yuan wouldn't happen in ten days or half a month.

"The fast ways are all written in the criminal law."

"Are there any legal ones?"

"Sure, find a rich older woman, put away that grumpy face of yours, warm her butt, and you'll definitely get money."

"Get lost."

The topic ended.

Class ended—

The classroom returned to its usual noisy state.

Amidst the clamor, Lin Tian suddenly saw.

At the classroom door, a head slowly poked out, like a little white rabbit.

Peeking stealthily.

Lin Tian immediately stood up and strode over.

The head seemed startled and immediately retracted, but Lin Tian had already walked out and grabbed the girl's arm.

"Why did you come to school?"

Lin Tian glared at Gan Yan Yu.

"I have something urgent to tell you."

Gan Yan Yu covered her head, her face full of guilt.

From the classroom behind them, heads quickly poked out of the windows to watch the spectacle.

This included Su Ran, who wanted to maintain her composure but couldn't resist.

Seeing this, Su Ran was completely stunned.

This was called pure friendship??

Seeing Lin Tian's serious expression, holding the girl's hand, while she lowered her head with a guilty look.

The classmates quickly imagined tens of thousands of words of romance novels, stories like a domineering boyfriend and his sweet, pampered girlfriend.

Especially with their high attractiveness.

So sweet!

It felt so compatible!

Soon, a chorus of "Ooooh~~" started.

Sensing that the situation was not right, Lin Tian realized this was not the place to talk and pulled Gan Yan Yu's arm upstairs.

The classmates' teasing became even more intense.

Lin Tian only let go when they reached the chemistry lab door.

"Your classmates just now, they won't misunderstand, right?"

As soon as he let go, Gan Yan Yu said softly.

"Does that matter?"

Lin Tian was numb. At a time like this, Gan Yan Yu was still concerned about such things.

"It matters a lot!"

Gan Yan Yu showed unexpected persistence.

"Lin Tian, you absolutely must explain clearly to them that we are just partners."

Gan Yan Yu felt a pang of self-blame.

As expected, she shouldn't have come to school.

If, because of this, Lin Tian was misunderstood...

This was completely contrary to her original intention.

"."

Lin Tian was speechless.

What was this supposed to mean?

Although he really didn't like the feeling of being the center of attention at school, Gan Yan Yu's behavior made it seem like she was terrified of any rumors spreading about them.

What? Was being rumored to be with him that embarrassing?!

But now wasn't the time to dwell on that. Lin Tian decisively steered the conversation back:

"Do you know that you shouldn't be running around like this, especially coming to school! If you get caught, you won't be able to return to school this semester."

"I'm sorry!"

Gan Yan Yu quickly apologized, fiddling with her fingers, her face full of nervousness.

But she still had to say:

"This matter is too important. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to find you if I came to you later—you're free at noon, right?"

"What is it?"

"I need you to come with me to meet someone. He's going abroad this afternoon and is only free this noon."

"Who?"

"The Chairman of the Qingzhou City Music Association. He wants to meet you."
