All my teammates online are my girlfriends

Lin Qiu scratched his face, his gaze sweeping over the fish-stealing cat's unfriendly expression, and his heart skipped a beat.

This guy clearly has ill intentions. When we meet, we'll probably end up bickering, let alone having a proper discussion about our plans.

"What, are you the type who's a little hesitant to speak up offline?"

At this point, the fish-stealing cat's expression grew increasingly hostile.

If this guy is really like that offline, I'll make sure he knows what it means to be punished by heaven!

"Well, no, it's just that it feels a little awkward when we meet offline and everyone is a stranger."

Lin Qiu smiled somewhat embarrassedly, as he had never had the experience of meeting someone in person before.

Moreover, they are all either rich second-generation or handsome and rich, while I am just an ordinary person, so I feel a lot of pressure!

"That's true... Where's Qingyuan?"

“I don’t have that problem. I’ve already met Yuanzi. She’s a very easy person to get along with, and there won’t be any communication problems.”

Qingyuan spoke calmly, her gaze sweeping meaningfully over the fish-stealing cat and Lin Qiu. The biggest problem right now was whether these two would start fighting as soon as they met.

Lin Qiu pondered for a moment, then glanced sideways at the fish-stealing cat beside him and couldn't help but ask—

"Fish-stealing cat, how tall are you?"

"what?"

Upon hearing his question, the fish-stealing cat immediately became alert. What mischief was this guy up to now?

"Just asking, you keep changing your voice all the time. I'm really curious what you're like offline. You didn't have some kind of weird surgery, did you?"

"Go away, you're the one who had that weird surgery. I just did it out of interest and for safety reasons."

The fish-stealing cat glared at him angrily. Couldn't this bastard think the best of things? I'll beat you to a pulp offline!

059 - People tend to selectively forget some important events.

"Chie, is it just my imagination? This bear seems to have gained a lot of weight."

Lin Qiu weighed the large gift box in his hand and asked with some suspicion.

That bear wasn't this heavy, was it? It looks like it was stuffed with a lot of other things inside.

"Brother Lin Qiu must be mistaken. I saw Mom pack the bear for you with my own eyes. Otherwise, what if it got dirty if it was exposed outside?"

Chie explained in a soft, sweet voice, but her eyes were fixed guiltily on the wontons in her bowl, and she didn't dare to look at Lin Qiu at all.

Lin Qiu, who was looking at the gift box, did not notice that something was wrong with Qian Hui. He shook the box again to make sure there was nothing amiss before putting it back on the table.

"You made plans to go out with Xiaoxuan and the others today, right?"

"Yeah, let's go to the arcade, the most famous Black Cat Entertainment Arcade!"

Chie happily swung her fair, chubby legs, already itching to go out and meet up with Qin Xuan immediately.

"Be careful on the road, don't get kidnapped."

"Don't worry, we know what we're doing!"

"By the way, does Mom give you any allowance? Is it enough?"

"Mom gave me two hundred!"

"Hmm—then I'll give you another eight hundred to round it up. Eat or play whatever you want, and remember to treat Xiao Xuan and the others to something, but be careful not to cause trouble for others."

Recalling Qin Yunmo's terrifying massage techniques, Lin Qiu quickly took out several large bills from his wallet and stuffed them into Qian Hui's hand.

This lavish attitude, almost like a bribe, left Chie completely stunned.

"Brother Lin Qiu, is it really just a small misunderstanding between you and Sister Yun Mo? Could it be that you've gotten into some trouble and are trying to get Xiao Xuan to put in a good word for you?"

"What are you thinking, kid? This is just for you to spend. Don't think about these things. If you don't want it, then I'll take it back."

"want!"

Seeing Lin Qiu make a move to take the money back, Qian Hui decisively stuffed the money into her small pocket and revealed a cute, chuckling smile.

Since Brother Lin Qiu has been so willing to support me, I can't go against his wishes.

Even without any misunderstanding, I can still help win over Xiao Xuan and the others, try to infiltrate their ranks, and lay the foundation for marrying my sister-in-law!

"Don't stay out too long. You'll have plenty of time later. Remember to come home early so your mom won't worry."

"Okay, I understand."

Seeing Chie nodding her little head vigorously in assurance, Lin Qiu didn't say anything more and silently started eating his bowl of wontons.

I wonder if Qin Yunmo has calmed down yet. If he's still angry and might hit me a couple more times, I won't be able to be his deskmate at all!

Meanwhile, Qin Yunmo, whom he was talking about, had arrived at school early and was stuffing chocolates and greeting cards into his locker.

What she didn't notice was that all her actions were being observed by Zezhi, who was standing to the side.

"Qin, are you... confessing your feelings?"

"Ok?"

Faced with Ze Zhi's question, Qin Yunmo looked over blankly.

"They stuff chocolates and letters into some kind of storage locker...that's how it's portrayed in anime!"

As Ze Zhi explained, her gaze intentionally or unintentionally drifted behind Qin Yunmo.

Whose storage cabinet was that again? Lin Qiu's?

"You've misunderstood. This is my own locker. These things are just temporarily stored here. I'll take them after school."

However, Qin Yunmo calmly answered without changing his expression, and moved slightly to the side, revealing the nameplate on the cabinet.

"Oh, I see. I thought you stuffed it into Lin Qiu's cabinet."

"impossible!"

Upon hearing Lin Qiu's name, Qin Yunmo's face darkened immediately. That bastard had said that the matter he had settled was only yesterday, and that he had already been merciful enough by not pursuing the matter further.

Still want to confess your feelings? Dream on!

Hearing Qin Yunmo's obviously unfriendly tone, Ze Zhi stuck out her tongue in fear.

Lin Qiu is really asking for trouble. Instead of saying anything good, he had to say that the other person was flat. Isn't that just asking for trouble?

"Let's go back to the classroom early. There's an opening test this morning, so it's good to review a little more."

"Eh?"

Upon hearing Qin Yunmo's nightmarish news, Ze Zhi's pretty face froze instantly, and she rubbed her ears somewhat uncertainly.

"what did you just say?!"

"Hmm? The entrance exam? Ms. Bai mentioned it before school ended yesterday."

"..."

Zezhi's lips twitched. She had only been thinking about getting home early to play games and hadn't remembered what her homeroom teacher had said.

Not daring to linger, Ze Zhi dashed back into the classroom, nervously flipping through her textbook.

Seeing how anxious this guy was, Qin Yunmo shook his head helplessly, closed the storage cabinet door, and then followed him back into the classroom.

Looking at Zezhi, who was sitting in her seat studying hard, Qin Yunmo shook her head. Having prepared well, she stopped looking at the textbook and took out her phone to check her messages.

I studied until very late after logging off yesterday and didn't check my messages much, so I don't know if Huiyuan Yuanzi and the others left any messages.

However, when the group chat was opened, apart from the occasional chat between the Fish-Stealing Cat and Yuanzi a few minutes earlier, who were looking forward to their meeting after school, there was no activity from Huiyuan's side.

Could that guy have social anxiety?

"Qingyuan, remember to come over early after school. I've already bought all the ingredients. I'll start cooking before you get out of school so you can have a hot meal as soon as you arrive."

Yuanzi, on the other hand, suddenly sent a message, her words revealing an indescribable excitement and anticipation, as if she were afraid they wouldn't come.

"Thank you for your help. I'll be there on time. If you need any help, just let me know. Also, please remind those two guys."

"I already urged them, don't worry! I even prepared a camera, let's take a picture together then."

"no problem."

While Qin Yunmo and Ying Ziyan were talking, Lin Qiu finally rushed into the classroom, his face full of doubt.

Why do all the students I've been with look so strange?

"Um... Qin, can I ask you something?"

"Ok?"

Qin Yunmo's cold gaze swept over Lin Qiu, who looked somewhat embarrassed, clearly still harboring resentment over the matter of Shuo Ping.

She could guarantee that if this guy dared to say anything he shouldn't, she would definitely give him another high-intensity massage!

"Ahem—it's just that...why do all those students look so unwell? Did something happen?"

"You don't know either?"

Why say "also"?

A sense of foreboding instinctively rose in Lin Qiu's heart.

"The school opening test starts in ten minutes."

Seeing Lin Qiu's face instantly turn pale with fear, Qin Yunmo felt inexplicably pleased.

But when he took out his Chinese textbook, Yunmo's eyelids twitched immediately—

"The first subject is math."

"..."

060 - Are they going on a date?

"call--"

After all the exams were over, Qin Yunmo breathed a slight sigh of relief, rubbed his fingers which were a little red from being kneaded, and felt much more relaxed.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at his deskmate and saw Lin Qiu slumped on the table like a salted fish, his eyes white and looking like he was about to die.

This guy's entire army was wiped out?

Yunmo muttered to himself, but the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.

It's actually quite nice to see this guy get unlucky occasionally. Serves you right for calling me average!

"Class monitor, is the answer to math question 5 C or D? I think it's definitely one of them!"

However, Lin Qiu's eager question pulled her back to reality. Realizing that something was amiss, Qin Yunmo coughed and asked again, somewhat uncertainly—

"what did you just say?"

What's the answer to question 5 in math?

"Ah—question five, the answer is B."

"..."

Watching Lin Qiu's eyes suddenly become empty, Qin Yunmo felt a strange pang of pity.

Should I have phrased it more tactfully? You've perfectly avoided all the correct answers?

"What about question eight?"

"I'm not too sure about this question; the answer I calculated is closer to C."

Qin Yunmo answered honestly, but when he saw Lin Qiu's weakened state, his lips twitched.

Do you have the same answer as me?

"The exam is over, and no matter how much you dwell on right and wrong, it's already a done deal, so don't think about it too much."

In the end, Qin Yunmo could only comfort him with this: the exams are over, so don't overthink it.

Lin Qiu mumbled a few words listlessly, it was unclear whether he had heard them or not, but his mood had clearly not improved much, and he stared blankly ahead.

Seeing that this guy looked completely listless all day, Qin Yunmo blinked, as if he had thought of something, and casually mentioned something—

"Xiao Xuan and Qian Hui are going to the arcade today, so they probably won't be home so early. We can go check it out after self-study ends and relax a bit."
