I downloaded the app and discovered that my childhood sweetheart's affection level had skyrocke

"It's dropping out of school."

"Yes, she dropped out of school. My maternal uncle's great-granddaughter's friend's friend's best friend is that Yang Shou'er. She dropped out of Yinshan School, but the reason is unclear."

"Really?"

When Lin Zhou learned that Yang Shou'er had dropped out of school, he couldn't help but wonder as he sat down. Could it be that the college had asked him to leave?

That's unlikely, isn't it? After all, Yu Ning had already punished Yang Shou'er on behalf of the academy—

Lin Zhou thought of a possibility.

That is, Yang Shou'er was not convinced and dropped out of Yinshan Academy in a fit of anger, after all, Yang Shou'er had been dragged out by himself at that time.

Another inch.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems there's only one reason: I felt the college was being unfair to me, so I dropped out.

yoooooooooo~ So be it. It's a good thing that one less genius is on the grand stage of Yinshan.

Just as Lin Zhou was thinking about that, he noticed that Bai Wanwan, who was sitting next to him, was looking out the window with her head turned to the side, propping her chin up with her hand, and he didn't know what she was thinking about.

"Wanwan?"

Bai Wanwan was lost in thought and didn't hear Lin Zhou calling her. She had been in this state ever since she saw Shi Qinglin.

……

She had been in contact with him before.

One year ago, at the Department of Literature of Yinshan College.

This is a small department hidden in a corner, and very few people in the area come here.

After repeatedly confirming the name on the sign, Bai Wanwan reached out and pushed open the club's door—

She saw the girl sitting by the window reading a book. The girl had a cool and aloof demeanor and seemed uninterested in anything.

A gust of wind blew by, ruffling their hair and skirts.

The two have similar temperaments, yet they are completely different.

"Is there something you need? The Literature Club... is usually empty." A cool voice drifted in on the breeze. Bai Wanwan turned and closed the door, locking it from the inside. The click sound was particularly clear in the quiet activity room.

The Literature Department is a very small club within the college, almost invisible, since e-reading is popular now and traditional text reading is not so popular within the college.

Bai Wanwan's appearance here was not for joining the club.

"You are Lin Zhou's girlfriend?" Bai Wanwan asked, her voice not loud but clear.

Shi Qinglin didn't answer, but quietly turned the pages of the book. After a few seconds, she hummed in agreement, "Yes, that's me."

"Can I... leave Lin Zhou? I can give you 100,000 yuan in compensation," Bai Wanwan said.

Shi Qinglin stopped turning the pages of her book. She simply raised her beautiful, unchanging eyes, as if scrutinizing Bai Wanwan, and asked, "You are...?"

"We grew up together," Bai Wanwan said.

"A suitor?" the other person asked, seeking confirmation.

"No," Bai Wanwan denied.

"Hmm." Shi Qinglin stopped responding to Bai Wanwan and continued to look down at the book, as if he couldn't muster any interest.

"What's the response?" Bai Wanwan asked, feeling completely ignored.

Two hundred thousand.

"Okay, two hundred thousand it is." Bai Wanwan waved her hand, seemingly unconcerned about the amount.

"No." Shi Qinglin didn't even look up, her tone unhurried and calm as she said, "I'll give you two hundred thousand."

"Huh?" Bai Wanwan was taken aback, then frowned and asked, "What...do you mean?"

What does it mean to give me money?

Shi Qinglin said, "It doesn't mean anything. Here's two hundred thousand. Please don't bother me."

"No, I'll give you 300,000," Bai Wanwan said.

"Four hundred thousand," Shi Qinglin said.

"Eight hundred thousand." Bai Wanwan took a deep breath.

Upon hearing this number, Shi Qinglin merely glanced at Bai Wanwan and asked, "Are you like this with every girl?"

"..." Bai Wanwan did not answer.

"If you like him, you should ask for his opinion, not come to me," Shi Qinglin continued. "Here's a million; don't bother me anymore."

"..."

"She's really cute," Shi Qinglin suddenly said softly.

Are you kidding me?

"No, here you go." Shi Qinglin took out a card and placed it on the table next to him. Neither his tone nor his attitude seemed like he was joking.

"You..." Bai Wanwan clenched her fists and finally left the club, leaving only the clear clattering sound of her shoes on the wooden floor.

Seeing Bai Wanwan's departing figure, Shi Qinglin didn't feel much; he simply lowered his head again and continued reading.

But Shi Qinglin still broke up with Lin Zhou.

Bai Wanwan didn't understand the reason—

"That woman..." This was the first time Bai Wanwan had encountered such a troublesome person, and she even felt like she had no way to use her strength.

The previous ones went so smoothly.

Lin Zhou always manages to attract girls for no apparent reason. Bai Wanwan has intercepted dozens of love letters since they were young, but if she doesn't keep an eye on them, there will always be some that slip through the net.

"Wanwan?"

"Wanwan?"

Bai Wanwan suddenly snapped out of her daze and realized that Lin Zhou was very close, close enough for her to see his clearly defined jawline. She reached out her hand, "...Too close, idiot."

Lin Zhou was pushed away by Bai Wanwan's soft little hand. He asked curiously, "What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing," Bai Wanwan said.

"Oh?" Lin Zhou didn't seem to mind, instead organizing his textbooks for class later. "By the way, Wanwan, there's a sketching class later. We missed it yesterday. Don't you like drawing?"

"Hmm." Bai Wanwan seemed a little absent-minded.

Just then, Lin Zhou noticed his phone vibrating—

In Bai Wanwan's section, new tasks have also been added.

Character: Bai Wanwan

Favorability: 99+

Status: Thinking

Special Mission: Try to draw a picture for the other person.

Reward: Beginner to Advanced Drawing Skills

Are you proficient in basic drawing?

Have mission rewards started including skills now?

nice one!

"Wanwan, I'll draw for you during class later." Lin Zhou was eager to try. He wasn't very good at drawing, so he was very curious about what it would be like to master the beginner level of drawing.

"Give me?"

"right."

Why?

"cute."

"..." Bai Wanwan silently accepted Lin Zhou's praise, her ear tips starting to turn red. Lin Zhou also realized he had forgotten to control his temperature and quickly added, "By the way, when I went to the bathroom today..."

"Please don't talk about your trip to the toilet anymore." Before Lin Zhou could finish speaking, Bai Wanwan glared at him.

"Sorry," Lin Zhou said with a dry laugh.

Is Wanwan angry?

However, it seems to have worked just right, indirectly achieving the goal of temperature control.

"Hey, Lin Zhou, someone's looking for you outside." Just then, a classmate called out.

Lin Zhou looked towards the door and saw Shi Qinglin standing there, quiet yet exceptionally eye-catching.

Ok?
