Chapter Thirty-Eight: Disposition

  (The third update is sent, damn it, and the back actually only differs from me by a few votes, everyone refuelled and topped up, the Huahua Defense War has begun)

  He Yuanyan's deskmate was not in, so the seat was empty. Liu Yifei went over and sat down, lightly tapping on He Yuanyan's desk, saying: "Fellow student He Yuanyan, do you have a first-year textbook? I'd like to borrow it."

  "What's with the high school textbook? What are you trying to do?" He Yuanyan raised her head, slightly furrowing her brow, completely unlike the familiarity she had shown earlier when Liu Yifei was playing basketball.

  This made Liu Yifei feel a little lost in her heart, but she still smiled and said, "I want to review it again, but all my books are gone."

  "Review? We're not even in senior year yet, what are you reviewing?" He Yuerong's eyebrows furrowed even tighter.

  Liu Yifei hadn't even responded, and Li Ya was already raising an eyebrow at him, saying: "Liu Yifei, don't think that just because our family's Yuexuan gave you a few kind words, you can take advantage of the situation to climb up. Let me tell you, it's better not to have those thoughts."

  He Yuanyuan and Liu Yifei both felt a bit awkward, He Yuanyuan immediately turned her head to avoid Liu Yifei's gaze.

  In her previous life, Liu Yifei remembered that when He Yuanyan rejected the pursuit of boys, many times it was Li Ya who helped her out. Although Li Ya's words were sometimes a bit sarcastic, she was absolutely true friends with He Yuanyan, and didn't mind at all. She smiled and said: "How dare I have such thoughts? Yuanyan is second in the school, and I'm first from the bottom, isn't this like heaven and earth? However, we can't always fall behind, right? We also want to make progress. These two days, I looked at books and just found out that the real reason was that my foundation in high school was too bad, so now I'm making up for it."

  Liu Yifei's calm and natural demeanor caused He Yuexuan's eyebrows to relax, and she took out a physics book for first-year high school students from her desk, saying: "I only have one physics book on hand, do you want to take a look?"

  "Alright, thank you so much." Liu Yifei reached out to take He Yuexuan's book.

  He Yuanyan suddenly pulled her hand back and let Liu Yifei take an empty one, then seriously said: "You are not allowed to scribble or draw randomly inside, otherwise I will never end with you."

  Liu Yifei smiled and said, "Don't worry, I would never do something like drawing a double heart on a note. If I were to pursue you, I would definitely do it openly and honestly."

  "You..." He Yuanyan was suddenly choked with rage. The Liu Yifei in front of her was actually so bold, it really made her somewhat unacceptable.

  Liu Yifei also felt that he had said too much, this was the tone he used to use when flirting with beauties in the company, and hurriedly remedied it with a smile, saying: "I'm just joking with you, making an analogy, I'll definitely take good care of your book, try to return it to you within a week, now I'm going to study hard, other things won't be on my mind."

  Li Ya glared at Liu Yifei and said, "Hmph, I don't know who else wants to gamble with Qian Yuanyan."

  This sentence made He Yuanyan blush all over her face, and she hastily handed the book to Liu Yifei, saying: "I'll lend it to you."

  "Thank you." Liu Yifei excitedly took the book and said, "I'll go read now." Then he got up and returned to his own seat, without any attachment or lingering feelings.

  "Hmph! I think he's just using this as an excuse to get close to you, Yuanyan. You'd better be careful, don't let your guard down just because he plays basketball well." Li Ya was still somewhat displeased at the moment.

  He Mu Yan gave Li Ya a white eye and said: "What nonsense are you talking about? What's with all the miscellaneous things between classmates?"

  Li Ya chuckled and said with a sly face: "Come on, you saw how excited you were when Liu Yifei played basketball earlier. If there weren't so many people around, I think you would have rushed over to give him a kiss. Quickly tell me, are you really into him?"

  "You...can't you just not be so nosy, am I that kind of person?" He Yuanyan's face suddenly flushed with a large patch of redness, and she couldn't help but stretch out her hand to pinch Li Ya's leg.

  "Cough... look at you, aren't you getting angry out of embarrassment?" Li Ya grabbed He Yuexuan's hand with a mischievous grin.

  "You... I won't tell you, but today I realized that you're also so annoying." He Yuanyan pouted and ignored Li Ya.

  Li Ya smiled lightly again and said, "I won't tease you anymore. But Liu Yifei seems to be quite impressive now. He's good at exams, plays basketball well, and I heard that tomorrow during the morning assembly, the school will punish those students who were caught cheating."

  "Oh, what punishment is this?" He Yuanyan immediately turned her head and asked.

  "Hmm... this seems to have nothing to do with you, why are you so concerned?"

  "Never mind." He Yuerong immediately turned her head back around.

  Li Ya turned around and glanced at Liu Yifei, then leaned in close to He Yuanyan's ear and whispered: "They were all given a major demerit, but Liu Yifei's situation is not very clear. It seems that because he swallowed the note, his behavior was particularly egregious, so Song Yufu wants to keep him under observation at school."

  "Ah! So serious? Actually, it's a detention?" He Yuanyan turned her head again, with a face full of astonishment.

  Li Ya shook her head and said, "I just heard it, who knows if it's true or not, but this time the school is really serious, in the past cheating was never punished." At the same time, she furrowed her brow, not expecting He Yuexuan to be so loud, now probably the whole class will know.

  As expected by Li Ya, a classmate in front of him immediately shouted: "What? You said Liu Yifei is going to be given a disciplinary warning for staying on campus?"

  The whole class suddenly boiled over and rushed to He Yuanyuan and Li Ya's side.

  "I've also just heard about it, who knows if this thing is true or not." Li Ya could only bitterly smile and explain in a sentence.

  Liu Bo Gang immediately shouted: "You heard that, your dad is the vice principal, this is obviously true."

  "This matter has not been finalized yet, and it will be decided on Monday after the meeting. You guys shouldn't go around talking about it randomly, or else I'll definitely get scolded when I get back." Li Ya hastily reminded everyone.

  "What can be done about it? If I stay in school to observe, I'll be scolded. If I make another small mistake, I might even be expelled directly." Liu Bo's eyebrows furrowed at this point.

  And I heard it would be put on file, which means I'll have to carry this penalty with me for the rest of my life.

  "I think if we seize the time and find a connection, maybe it can be solved?"

  "Hey, Liu Yifei, are you coming over to discuss what to do? You're acting like nothing's wrong." Liu Bojang shouted at Liu Yifei.

  It wasn't until then that they realized Liu Yifei was still there with his head down, looking at the book, as if everyone was talking about someone else who had nothing to do with him.

  Liu Yifei raised his head at this time, chuckled and said: "It's nothing, as long as I'm not directly fired, the rest doesn't matter to me."

  Everyone couldn't help but look at each other in shock, feeling that Liu Yifei's heart was a bit too big...
