The next day, I thought He Yuqing would become honest and stop bothering me with his thoughts, but I was completely wrong. After just one class, he couldn't resist and came to chat with me.

"Youjie... why don't you come to the tea club after school today?" He Yuqing smiled at me, as dazzling as the sun.

"I don't want to..." I looked away. Yesterday, this guy ignored me and now he did a complete 360-degree change. It's really unpredictable.

"Why? That's weird," he looked puzzled.

"Thanks to you, I didn't sleep well last night." If there was a mirror, I'm sure I had panda eyes. This guy was unhappy last night because of our argument, and he kept babbling like a monk reciting scriptures, causing me to have a sleepless night. I barely made it through one class and felt sleepy.

"Youjie, are you suffering from insomnia at such a young age?" He shamelessly teased me.

"Whose fault is it, after all? Certain people don't seem to reflect at all," I said bitterly.

"Reflect? Who needs to reflect? Isn't it just Youjie having insomnia on her own?" He Yuqing continued to play dumb, sometimes clear-headed and sometimes confused.

"I don't want to talk to you. I'm really tired now," I couldn't help but yawn, wanting to take a nap during break time.

"That won't do, Youjie." He Yuqing held my shoulders with both hands and pressed hard.

"Oh~ it hurts so much!" I didn't expect him to be so strong with his gentle appearance.

"What about now? You're a little more awake, right?"

"Don't suddenly press my shoulders like that. It hurts!" I rubbed my sore shoulders and said unhappily.

"But at least you're awake now, right? Youth shouldn't be wasted like this. You should put more effort into girls. Isn't it a waste to not chase after girls when you're in the prime of your youth?"

If he talks any louder, the girls in the class would definitely call him a scumbag.

"So... let's go to the tea club after school, okay? The beautiful senior sister is quite eye-catching."

"If you're trying to persuade me..."

"Is it really like that, Jie?" Before I could finish speaking, Zhiye interrupted me. His serious expression made me hesitate to speak.

"Yes, Zhiye, Youjie is also interested in the senior sisters in the tea club, so we discussed going there together after school."

This guy didn't have any sense of crisis at all. Zhiye is someone who can easily strike you down with a single blow before you finish speaking.

"Is that so, Jie?" Zhiye's absent eyes looked at me again. What's with this inexplicable sense of oppression?

"Listen to me, I'm not interested in any senior sisters from the tea club, like he said."

"Youjie is lying again. Didn't we go together yesterday?" Hearing He Yuqing's dangerous statement, I instinctively wanted to cover his mouth, but it was too late. This guy is really good at exaggerating.

"It seems like it's true, Jie. How could you do something like that, going to see other girls behind my back?" A oppressive black mist seemed to rise behind Zhiye, and her hair almost floated up. As everyone can see, Zhiye is now very angry.

"It's all because of the good deeds you did," I broke out in a cold sweat, staring at He Yuqing.

He Yuqing also looked extremely embarrassed, a little at a loss in the face of this situation.

"So Jie, being exposed in such a female-dominated environment is not acceptable. It's necessary to confine her," Zhiye took out a hemp rope from the desk.

"I didn't expect you to prepare this because of something like this," He Yuqing sighed beside me.

"You've witnessed how amazing Zhiye is, so the lines you have to say should be what I want to say," I said.

"Now what should we do? The atmosphere is really not good," He Yuqing panicked, like a headless fly. Clearly, this was my instinctive reaction. Moreover, you're the main culprit.

"The one who made the trouble should solve it. You're the only one who can handle this," I said.

"Me? How am I supposed to know how to solve it?"

"Zhiye caused the misunderstanding because of what you said, so you have to clarify it," I said.

"That's true... Zhiye, listen to me," He Yuqing tried to stop Zhiye and grabbed the hemp rope from his hands.

"Only Jie can touch me," Zhiye said.

"Ah... I didn't mean that," He Yuqing was intimidated by Zhiye's aura and quickly retracted his hand.

"Zhiye, there's a misunderstanding. I was just joking. Actually, I really like the senior from the Tea Art Club," He Yuqing quickly explained, revealing his true feelings. This guy...

"Why did you bring Jie into this?"

"Because... we're good buddies, haha."

He Yuqing suddenly hugged my shoulder, causing me to freeze. I could feel the strange gazes around.

"Alright, so it was a misunderstanding. It's all his fault," I quickly removed He Yuqing's hand from my shoulder and spoke seriously to Zhiye.

"I'll choose to believe that Jie won't cheat," Zhiye's face suddenly softened into a gentle smile, and the oppressive aura instantly dissipated.

"Finally cleared up," He Yuqing sighed with relief. It's rare to see him feeling so mentally exhausted.

"You see how amazing he is. Don't speak without thinking in the future," I said to He Yuqing in a low voice.

"I have

"Jie, there is no need for such friendship,"

"Hey... does this classmate Zhiye also need to interfere?"

"Please, classmate He Yuqing, have some self-restraint in front of such a large audience,"

"Am I being treated like some kind of peculiar person?" He Yuqing innocently looked at me,

"I don't know you, so what Zhiye said is correct. Please, have some self-respect..."

"Even Youjie has to do this?" He Yuqing was extremely shocked,

"There is no other way, I am also following my heart." I said with a sincere tone, as if speaking to God.

"Despite my genuine intentions..." He Yuqing was at a loss for words, just then, Zhong Meiya walked into the classroom, glared at me and He Yuqing, and said, "It's time for class, no more chatting. The students who are standing while talking, should go back to their seats!"
