How come you're also my ex-girlfriend?

Summer is gradually fading away, and the sunlight is no longer so glaring.

However, after wearing glasses for so long, I'm still not used to this kind of light stimulation.

She squinted slightly as she approached the entrance of the teaching building, only to see a figure drawing closer. She quickly put on her glasses and lowered her head again.

"Hmm? You're here so early?"

Xu Yan walked alone from the sunlight outside into the shadows of the stairwell, looked at the girl with her head down, and observed her for a moment... Hmm? Shen Yourong wasn't wearing a coat.

Her smooth arms, which she doesn't usually show, were revealed. They were slender with little fat and delicate, fair skin.

The key point is not that, but that because he wasn't wearing a coat, Xu Yan, who was taller than him, could clearly see the impressive size of the other person's chest just by looking down slightly.

Depend on.

I hadn't noticed before that this girl had such a "special talent." Why didn't she say something so important earlier?

Although it's just an outline covered by a summer school uniform, the name Shen Yourong has a story behind it.

"Um... I came over after I finished eating."

The girl answered softly, her voice still as soft and weak as ever.

Whether it was because she sensed Xu Yan's fleeting gaze or was simply not used to not having a coat, she tucked her arms tightly into her front.

This movement actually made her chest appear even larger, like a balloon about to burst.

"Oh, I see. By the way, those people from this morning haven't contacted you again, have they?"

After all, he was a gentleman, and it wasn't appropriate to keep looking. Xu Yan looked ahead and used self-discipline to resist the desires of men.

Shen Yourong nodded gently, "Um...that's all."

"That's fine then. No need to thank me too much. Just treat me to a meal next time."

Shen Yourong: ?

She couldn't help but look up, giving Xu Yan a slightly strange look.

Xu Yan laughed heartily, "Just kidding."

"oh."

"Actually, cashing it out is also an option."

"..."

Are you always this shy when you talk?

Xu Yan blinked and asked, and as expected, Shen Yourong's face flushed slightly at the question. She avoided the boy's gaze and lowered her head as if feeling guilty.

"It's...it's alright...I've always been like this."

Xu Yan nodded thoughtfully, "That's fine too."

He only made that comment, but Shen Yourong seemed a little surprised and asked, "Don't you... think I'm particularly boring?"

The boy thought to himself, "Wearing a jacket every day, even in hot weather, how can I not feel stuffy when I'm all covered up?"

But what she actually said was, "So what if I'm a little quiet? It doesn't bother anyone else. Some people even find me noisy and annoying. Anyway, people will always gossip, so I might as well live life the way that makes me comfortable."

Shen Yourong nodded silently, and the two entered the classroom one after the other. There weren't many people taking a lunch break at the time, and hardly anyone noticed them.

So they naturally separated. Shen Yourong had no reason to cling to Xu Yan, and Xu Yan had no desire to force such a thing.

Xu Yan didn't see Wen Xueyu at her seat, and Brother Shu next to her was probably not there at this time either because of his accommodation. For a moment, Xu Yan found himself in a rather boring situation.

No beautiful girls, no giants, no system quests... I want to cosplay a teru teru bozu (a Japanese doll-shaped doll).

But soon, Qin Yifan walked into the classroom with heavy steps. Usually arrogant, he now had a somewhat gloomy air about him, like a boy from a London rainstorm.

"Didn't you go play games today?"

Seeing that the other person was approaching and was all alone, Xu Yan casually asked.

Qin Yifan glanced at Xu Yan, then pulled out the chair next to him that belonged to Brother Shu and said helplessly, "He was beaten into submission."

"opponent?"

"Teammate!" Qin Yifan said irritably, "Damn it, this teammate isn't just a benefactor, he's practically a god!"

"I told my teammate, 'I've got your back.' Do you know what he replied?"

"What?"

"Then leave it to me!"

"Hahahaha." Xu Yan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"You laugh if you can't even lay tiles."

Qin Yifan glanced at the boy beside him who was laughing irritatingly.

Xu Yan thought for a moment and replied, "I can play a little, but I'm not very good at it."

That's a rather modest way of putting it. Xu Yangguang has the ability to play games with clients and often gets matched with streamers, but he doesn't treat it as a real side job. Calling him amazing is no longer accurate.

"What rank are you? Are there any Platinum players?"

Qin Yifan immediately became arrogant and asked in a flippant manner.

Xu Yan thought for a moment, "Golden Three."

There really is a low-ranked account that's good for casual play, but it plays more casual matches than ranked matches.

"Oh, it's Golden Boy!"

Qin Yifan immediately became even more arrogant, but Xu Yan wasn't angry. He smiled and said, "What level is Young Master Qin at?"

"Half a diamond, you know what I mean?"

Simply put, he has some basic skills, but lacks awareness and is good at targeting noobs without talent.

"That's amazing!" Xu Yan kept praising him.

"So-so, but better than those two noobs Xie Fei and Zhang Zhiwen. I might be able to help you rank up if I get the chance."

"That's all thanks to the diamond tycoon."

Some things need to be said now, otherwise, when the real fight breaks out, these words will come across as sarcastic or sarcastic. Saying them now is what we call "praising someone to death."

The two chatted for a while, and more people gradually entered the classroom. Xu Yan suddenly asked, "Are you a boarder?"

Qin Yifan nodded. "Yes, what's up? You want to stay somewhere too?"

"My parents make me breakfast every day, and I can have a late-night snack whenever I want. When I get home, I can use my phone or even the computer all night, and I don't have to hang my clothes out to dry in the washing machine. I don't have to worry about being woken up by snoring next to me... Why would I need to live in a dormitory?"

Qin Yifan: ...

A few words silenced Qin Yifan.

Xie Fei, the math class representative who had just arrived at the classroom, couldn't help but smirk and say, "Your mouth... even if I were a saint, I'd probably want to stab you a couple of times. I really want to fight you day students!"

Qin Yifan glared at Xu Yan, annoyed. "Why are you asking me this when you don't even live on campus? Are you crazy?"

Xu Yan laughed and said, "It's nothing, I'm just curious. Why would a rich kid like you live at school? You must have someone to pick you up and drop you off."

Having witnessed the low-key rich heiress Wen Xueyu's willingness to commute to school even from such a distant place, Qin Yifan couldn't understand why she would choose to live at school.

"I'm low-key and like to mingle with ordinary people, is that wrong?"

Xie Fei, who was standing next to him, added, "And the school's accommodations aren't bad at all. There's air conditioning, hot water, and even washing machines. The only downside is that you can't use your phone and the dorm supervisors check rooms, which is annoying... There aren't many drawbacks. The main thing is that you can sleep in, which is great."

Xu Yan looked at the two of them with innocent eyes, "Can one freely and happily comfort oneself in the dead of night?"

Xie Fei and Qin Yifan: ...

The two fell silent again.

At the same time, the urge to kill was already becoming increasingly difficult to conceal in his eyes.

This newly promoted student seems to have developed a soft spot for soft talk, isn't he? He's specifically targeting their weaknesses!

"Is there any way to get him back into the regular class?" Qin Yifan asked Xie Fei.

Xie Fei, however, looked at Xu Yan with a greedy expression and said, "Brother Xu, you must have a lot of resources, right?"

"Damn it, Xie Fei, you're really controlling the big picture! Has your brother Qin been mistreating you?"

Xie Fei replied helplessly, "Brother, I really don't like looking at flat-chested girls... I even think you might be a bit like a loli..."

Qin Yifan's face immediately turned red.

"You fucking bastard! I don't like lolis, I look at feet..."

Before he could finish speaking, he abruptly stopped and froze on the spot.

Several boys around Qin Yifan looked at him strangely, and whispers arose among them.

"How arrogant! Discussing fetishes in public."

"Isn't he a pervert...?"

Seeing that things were going badly, Xie Fei lowered his voice to comfort Qin Yifan, "It's okay, Brother Qin, the universe doesn't care whether you watch Shakespeare or porn."

Qin Yifan was too lazy to even acknowledge Xie Fei. This fatso tricked him in the game, and now he's tricking him at school too! Is that fat belly full of bad intentions?

Turning around, she saw Xu Yan deep in thought. "What are you thinking about now?"

Xu Yan said seriously to Qin Yifan, "I'm thinking, do feet count as X-organs?"

"You fucking..."

"If the feet are considered X organs, then is athlete's foot considered an X disease?"

"..."

Qin Yifan was speechless; he was even close to overcoming his sexual fetish.

Xie Fei gave Xu Yan a thumbs up, "Brother Xu, you're amazing! You couldn't ask such a question without some serious illness."

Qin Yifan stood up. "I'm not going to talk about this anymore. I'm afraid I'll really go crazy from talking. I should stay away from certain groups."

Xu Yan didn't mind, and stood up with a smile to go to the toilet.

As he passed the front of the fourth group, he didn't deliberately look at the aloof girl next to him.

But what I saw next was a pair of big, bright eyes blinking at me.

Just as I was about to greet him warmly as usual, and call out "cod burger" like ordering food, I was...

"Qin Yifan! Let's play ball in PE class later... Holy crap!"

"Be careful!"

Yu Yong, the discipline committee member who dribbled into the classroom, either missed his shot at the podium or lost control of the ball while dribbling.

The ball flew straight through the crowd, heading directly for the first position in group four. Surprisingly, it was quite fast; none of the people it passed through had time to reach out and change its trajectory.

What made Yu Yong's heart sink instantly was that the first position in the fourth group was...

The instant Xu Yan passed by, the instant he turned his back to me.

Ye Shutong raised her cool eyes, only to see the basketball hurtling towards her. Her eyes widened in surprise, as if the force of the impact was already brushing against her face.

But the figure that had only occupied a corner of her vision suddenly moved to the side, completely blocking her view, and she immediately looked up.

What you see is his slender back, his outstretched arms catching the basketball precisely, and the muscle lines that bulge out from the effort resembling smooth hills.

My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, gently settled down, creating ripples on the lake's surface, and then I heard his reassuring voice.

"Are you alright?"

Ye Shutong parted her red lips, but before she could utter a sound, she heard...

"You scared me to death... Yu Yong! Why are you playing with ball in the classroom again?"

Wen Xueyu's voice was like ocean waves, gently pushing away the girl who was trying to get closer to something.

It felt like when I was a child, I realized for the first time that the sunshine and rain in this world didn't come just for me.

He protected her; it had nothing to do with him.

Ye Shutong closed her lips and lowered her head, as if nothing had happened.

It's still an isolated island.
