Chapter 7
An Xiaxia widened her eyes as confusion flashed through her gaze . She bit her lip but no words came out at all .
Was he mistaken about something…
“You’re mistaken . How could I possibly want to fling myself at someone like you?! Others may like you but I’m not interested in you at all!” An Xiaxia summoned up her courage and retorted .
“Ah…” Sheng Yize nodded . “I see . ”
As his voice trailed off, An Xiaxia felt her waist being released . Because she hadn’t yet gained her balance, she once again fell to the floor in a sorry heap .
A few laughs came from the crowd . Sheng Yize glanced at her before he went on to take a notebook from some girl nearby to sign .
“Are you alright?” A gentle male voice rang out, followed by a hand reaching out to help her up .
It was a teenager’s hand that was clean, large, and with long fingers .
An Xiaxia gulped and stared dumbfoundedly at the handsome face she always saw on television .
The rumors were true after all… He Jiayu was a gentle person who reminded those around him of the warm spring breeze .
But she would never dare take that hand!
Surrounding her were the chilly and frightening glares of female students that were going to poke a thousand holes in her!
An Xiaxia smiled in embarrassment . “Don’t worry about me . Thanks . ” She then scrambled to her feet . Right at that moment, Kang Jian finally managed to squeeze over to where she was and held onto her shoulder while panting . “Xiaxia, are you alright?”
“I’m fine . ”
“If you’re fine, then let’s go!”
“…” An Xiaxia couldn’t be bothered talking to this clueless fellow and, with much difficulty, she managed to get past the crowd to the classroom .
Sheng Yize and the other two were pretty much finished with autographs, and as it was almost time for classes, the crowd began to disperse .
Chi Yuanfeng stretched his limbs . His enchantingly beautiful face had annoyance written all over it as he said, “Had I known coming to school was going to be so troublesome, I wouldn’t have come . ”
He Jiayu’s lips curled up in a smile and he patted Sheng Yize’s shoulder . “That girl just then said she’s not interested in you . Was she playing dumb to attract your attention?”
Sheng Yize smirked and looked amused . “Who knows . Maybe she’s just plain stupid . ”
He strode ahead with his long legs with ease .
Chi Yuanfeng sighed . “Brother Yize is still so merciless . If he didn’t have his handsome face, I bet he’d get beaten up!”
“Oh, really?” He Jiayu curled the corners of his lips in a knowing smile .

The classroom .
Because she managed to get to the classroom fairly early, An Xiaxia was able to choose a seat by the window in the back row .
This was the best seat in the whole classroom . She could see when the class teacher was peeking in on the class and could daydream in class without getting noticed by the teacher .
Kang Jian wanted to sit next to her, but An Xiaxia promptly pulled the chair away . She glared at him and said, “Go away! I don’t want to sit next to you!”
“Hey, Xiaxia, I’m your childhood friend . How can you treat me like this?! This morning, I even brought you to school on my bike!” Kang Jian complained, feeling wronged .
“Since when does a childhood friend make you look like a fool in front of the whole school at the school opening ceremony? Worthless Kang, go away!”
Kang Jian looked at her and sighed after seeing how persistent she was . He then put his bag on the desk one row behind her and leaned on it, looking upset .
An Xiaxia took out her pencil case, picked a pen, and spun it with her fingers in boredom while she stared blankly at the view outside the window .
All of a sudden, her sight was blocked by three tall figures . An Xiaxia was dumbfounded when she saw Sheng Yize and the other two pass her window before entering the classroom for Year 1 Class C!
Thud —
The pen dropped from An Xiaxia’s fingers onto the desk, then to the floor, before it rolled slowly until it reached a row of long legs .
