"Lu Yichen? Why are you…"
She looked around her.
It was only then that she remembered that she was on the basketball court's spectator seats…
Mu Xiaoxiao looked at Lu Yichen awkwardly and said, embarrassed, "I'm sorry. Why are you here though? Where are my classmates?"
She remembered clearly that she had been sitting with her female classmates.
She then leaned on a classmate's shoulder because she had been too tired.
At first, she only wanted to take a nap but had fallen into a deep sleep instead.
Lu Yichen said mildly. "The period ended and they returned to the classroom."
He didn't tell her that he had already exchanged places with her female classmates before the period had ended.
Mu Xiaoxiao rubbed her temples. "Why didn't you wake me up?"
Lu Yichen was silent.
Just then, the bell rang again.
Mu Xiaoxiao felt a lot more awake and asked, "Did class just end?"
Why wasn't there anyone around them? Did everyone rush off?
"No, it's lesson time."
Thus, the bell before was the one that signaled the students to prepare for lessons, while the bell now was the bell that signaled the start of lessons.
Mu Xiaoxiao stood up hurriedly. "I'll be going back to class then."
Upon seeing that she was a little dizzy, Lu Yichen reached out to hold her arm. In a gentle voice, he said, "Slow down. You should rest for a little bit."
Mu Xiaoxiao smiled as she said, "I'm already awake. I'm fine."
Lu Yichen stood up as well. "Let's go then."
The two of them left the basketball court. Lu Yichen accompanied her to the Year One building before leaving.
When he returned to Year Three Class S, the teacher had long begun class.
However, the teacher's attitude was pleasant because it was him. He was only told to sit down.
Just as Lu Yichen sat down, the boy who was in front of him, who was also one of the boys he played basketball with earlier, turned around. Smiling suggestively, he said, "Is the junior awake?"
Lu Yichen cast an indifferent gaze at him. "Don't spout nonsense. Pay attention."
"Do you like her?" his classmate pursued.
Mu Xiaoxiao was Young Master Jie's girlfriend and everyone knew that.
Lu Yichen looked at him and advised kindly, "The teacher's looking at you."
The boy was shocked and turned around hurriedly. He whispered, "I'll talk to you after class."
Even though Lu Yichen was a distant person, he still conducted himself well, and was a member of the basketball team. Thus, he had a harmonious relationship with the boys in his class even though he still did things alone, unlike the other boys who often grouped together.
However, the boys in his class found that he had changed a little recently. He agreed when they asked him to play ball and didn't reject them when they walked together with him. He would even answer a little when they talked to him.
In short, his popularity increased!
After class.
The boys who had payed basketball earlier crowded around Lu Yichen's desk.
"Oi, oi, Lu Yichen, what's up now?"
"Do you… like her?"
"Lu Yichen, we lost because you chose a girl over your bros. Who's going to treat us now?"
Lu Yichen said lightly, avoiding the other questions, "It'll be my treat then."
"Your treat?" The boys were shocked.
Someone said awkwardly, "It's okay. I think we should let Ah Li and the rest treat us instead. Aren't you…"
Everyone knew that his family's finances weren't very good. Thus, when they suggested that the loser treat them to a meal, they did so with the fact that Lu Yichen would definitely win in mind, so that they would have an excuse to treat him to a meal.
