Xie Yue was puzzled when he saw someone approaching not far away. He called, "Brother Yang! Come here."
Yun Mi paused in her actions, pretending to glance sneakily. The boy stood in the aisle. Even though everyone wore the same uniform, only he had dark eyebrows and eyes, a laziness in his gaze that made one's heart tremble.
He had a decent face and body.
Remembering his warning-like suggestion, Yun Mi pouted. "Oh, him? Who? I don't know him."
"...?"
It took Xie Yue a moment to realize Yun Mi was saying she didn't know Chen Yiyang. "Huh?" he said. "No way..."
What, had he really seen a ghost?
Thinking of Chen Yiyang's impatient expression in the office, Yun Mi snorted.
—Hmph, so what! Not knowing each other is fine. Did she really care?
Chen Yiyang had just put his phone back in his pocket. He had received a call from Wen Liangyu.
Du Yun still wanted to contact Yun Mi's parents.
Yun Mi's father was a doctor on an aid mission in Africa, and in her school registration, the mother's column was blank.
Du Yun could only try contacting Chen Yiyang's mother.
Wen Liangyu had called after receiving the call, demanding to know how Yun Mi was late.
Earlier that morning, before leaving, Chen Yiyang had told the housekeeper, who had returned overnight, about it. Something must have gone wrong—she hadn't brought Yun Mi to school.
Chen Yiyang stood behind Xie Yue without speaking, his gaze lightly falling on Yun Mi's math paper, which had a score marked on it.
Xie Yue obviously saw it too, his brows furrowing. "Damn, whose paper is this on your desk? How does someone get a 62 on math?"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
The girl's calm lips seemed to twitch.
Yun Mi's eyes dropped, staring at Chen Yiyang's prominent wrist bones and defined fingers. They were strong.
Those very hands had just written a bunch of answers on her paper.
Yun Mi's heartbeat faltered.
Such a waste of a good brain and nice hands.
She cursed herself to get back on track and see clearly what kind of person he was. Putting on a blank expression, she humbly admitted her "mistake." "Careless!"
"Accidentally lost eighty-eight points."
Yun Mi generously placed the paper in front of her. "I'll try harder next time!"
She wasn't good at grades now, but that might not be the case later.
Unlike some people, who were handsome but had bad moral character.
Jerk.
