I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 193 Let's go shopping sometime when we have time.

"School starts so soon... What about the exams? I'm not very confident..."

Zhou Heng and Yin Mengran were walking to school, wearing matching cotton-padded jackets and scarves. They stood close together, seemingly oblivious to the winter chill.

Yin Mengran exhaled a breath of cold air, a smile playing on her lips, and said:

"It's okay, you'll definitely improve a lot. Besides, this isn't the college entrance exam, it doesn't mean anything. There's still a semester left, don't be nervous."

Yin Mengran reached out and gently stroked Zhou Heng's head to comfort him.

Zhou Heng let out a breath; with Yin Mengran's comfort, he felt much better.

"Ding--"

Just then, Yin Mengran's phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was a message from Shen Linyi.

"Look! She took a picture of Dongju University for us!"

"Really? After we got back from dinner yesterday, you seemed to have talked to her a lot, right?"

Zhou Heng glanced at Yin Mengran's phone; sure enough, it was a message from Shen Linyi.

He would never have imagined this would happen before, and it was truly remarkable that Shen Linyi would take the initiative to send him a message.

"Yes! She can chat with me normally now! Although I can still sense that she's a little scared sometimes, it's much better than before!"

Yin Mengran smiled and nodded, replying to Shen Linyi's message.

After arriving at school, the two were temporarily separated and could not enter the school so intimately.

Upon arriving at the classroom, they discovered they were the last students to arrive, and their homeroom teacher, Ms. Wang, was already standing on the podium.

"You two almost arrived late, do you know that? Go back and sit down right now."

Teacher Wang looked at the two of them helplessly and said in a low voice.

"it is good..."

Zhou Heng and Yin Mengran looked somewhat embarrassed under the gaze of the entire class, and lowered their heads.

Although everyone in the class probably knew about their relationship...

"Those two seem to be getting along quite well; it's been almost six months now..."

Tian Run turned his head and said something to Tong Yining, who sat at the table behind him.

Tong Yining, on the other hand, kept her head down and did not look up when she heard Tian Run's voice.

"Hmm, isn't that great?"

Tong Yining responded softly, but her hands didn't stop; she continued working on the problems.

Tian Run glanced at her with a puzzled look and muttered, "Tch, such a bland reaction, boring."

"Otherwise, what other reaction could I possibly have?"

Tong Yining shrugged and said nonchalantly,

But then she saw the words she had just written, and they were... "Zhou".

She quickly crossed it out with her pen, blacked it out, and pretended that nothing had happened, continuing to write.

Zhou Heng sat down in his seat, and as soon as he put his bag down, a lollipop rolled onto his desk.

Zhou Heng glanced at Tang Zhi beside him, then picked up the lollipop and put it away, saying:

"You don't look very energetic. Did you play games all night again yesterday?"

Tang Zhi shook her head, listlessly saying, "On the contrary, I haven't played any games for so many days, that's why I'm so listless. I haven't done my daily tasks, missed the New Year's events, used up my stamina, and missed the guild wars..."

"You must have been quite busy during the New Year holiday. I was actually planning to have you do some quests for my account..."

"Forget it, I don't have time. This is my last semester, and I won't be able to play for much longer. I have to prepare for the college entrance exam. My family insists that I take the exam for that...that kind of university."

Tang Zhi waved her hand and slumped listlessly onto the table, looking very upset.

"Dongzhu University? Yin Mengran and I will also apply. That school is pretty good."

"Oh right, Dongju University. My mom said she wants us to visit there sometime, it's not far anyway..."

Zhou Heng nodded and replied, "That works too. Perfect timing, there are people there who can take us in."

"Hmm? Who is it?"

"Uh... I have an older sister, my aunt's daughter. She's a student at Dongzhu University. If we go there to play, we should be able to find her, um... I think."

Zhou Heng would never have dared to say that before, but now... it should be okay, since Yin Mengran and he are friends now, and she has no reason to refuse, right?

"Okay, let's go when we have time, go shopping, and I'll be able to explain to my mom and the others."

Tang Zhi didn't ask any further questions and nodded in agreement.

Since they are related to Zhou Heng, they are also related by blood, so having such an acquaintance is naturally the best thing.

"Okay, quiet down."

At this moment, Teacher Wang stood at the front, clapped her hands, and signaled the whole class to quiet down and stop whispering.

Everyone looked up at Teacher Wang, wondering what she was going to say.

"I have something to announce. We have a new transfer student who will be spending this last semester with us and studying together. Come on in!"

Teacher Wang called out towards the outside of the classroom.

The students frowned in confusion, looking at the others with expressions of astonishment.

This is the last semester, and the college entrance exam is in about four or five months. Why are there still transfer students at this time?

Who would transfer schools at such a crucial time?

As everyone wondered what was going on, a student slowly walked in through the door.

Her long, black hair was tied in a ponytail, and she looked full of youthful energy in her school uniform.

Beneath her long eyelashes were a pair of bright, large eyes; she had a high nose bridge and cherry-like lips, making her look exceptionally cute.

Her fair skin made her cheeks look like they could be pinched; they seemed soft and smooth.

She wasn't very tall, but she was the height of a normal high school girl. She was carrying a backpack and looked very happy when she walked in.

"Oh--"

Kong Yue's eyes lit up instantly! He raised his head, stretching his neck as far as he could.

I never expected the transfer student to be such a beautiful girl!

Zhou Heng and Tang Zhi didn't react much, tilting their heads and slightly frowning, as if they were thinking about something.

Yin Mengran also secretly glanced at Zhou Heng to see what his expression was...

"Please introduce yourself."

Teacher Wang nodded and looked at the girl in front of him.

"Okay, teacher!"

The girl walked straight to the podium, picked up a piece of chalk, and then boldly wrote her name on the blackboard!

Such things, which happen on television, are rarely seen in real life, but they witnessed them right now.

"Yu Lingxue, that's my name. You can call me whatever you like, Xiao Yu, Xiao Xue, Lingxue, thank you everyone."

A sweet smile spread across the girl's face as she spoke, giving her classmates a slight bow. She seemed very sunny and cheerful.

"Okay, you can sit over there... behind Yin Mengran. She's the class monitor, so you can ask her if you need anything."
