32 "Dont Misunderstand Us." (1/2)

Li Yuri froze as she subconsciously glanced at Tang Min, who was her best friend, then at Lu Jeongshan, her crush since childhood..

'Is this what it feels like to be stuck between rock and a hard place?'

In the end..

”What? You're not gonna choose between the two of us??” Tang Min raised his brows at her answer.

Li Yuri nodded her head as she smiled slyly, thinking that she was simply too smart, ”I'll rather choose to sit with Sis Feng instead! Bro Shan and you can sit together!”

Tang Min and Lu Jeongshan looked at each other before looking away right away in disdain.

Tang Min humphed before sitting with Mo Xuanji, while Lu Jeongshan sat beside another boy in the class.

Qi Feng speechlessly turned to look at Li Yuri and asked, ”You're not gonna sit with your Bro Shan?”

When Li Yuri heard her words, she widened her eyes and lowered her voice, ”What are you saying, Sis Feng?! My Bro Shan??”

Qi Feng looked at her blushing cheeks and found her extremely adorable, just like the puppy she had reared when she was small.

She averted her gaze away and said aloofly, ”Xuanji told me that you like Lu Jeongshan. And your actions make it even more obvious.”

”Oh” Li Yuri covered her face in despair as she said embarrassedly, ”Sis Xuan really sold me out!”

Qi Feng narrowed her eyes, ”What? You didn't want me to find out?”

Li Yuri frantically shook her head, ”It's not that I didn't want to tell you! It's just.. You see.. There's been rumors circulating in the school-”

She abruptly stopped talking when she realized what she just said.

Qi Feng took out her textbook and casually asked while practicing questions, ”What rumors?”

Li Yuri pondered and chose not to tell her at last, ”Actually, it's nothing..”

Qi Feng's lips curled up in amusement.

”You're not going to tell me? Oh, then I'll check out the school forum and see what's it about.”

Li Yuri was flustered when she thought about how others were talking about Qi Feng.

Lu Jeongshan was very famous in the school and he was just like a school idol with many fans, who were infatuated with him.

Many fans talked about this matter when someone posted a photo of Bro Shan and Qi Feng, standing together.

Some fans shipped the two of them since their temperament was similar while some even scolded her anonymously in the forums for 'using' their God Lu for fame in school.

She was afraid that Qi Feng would feel bad about this. So she pursed her lips and carefully spoke.

”Then I-I'll tell you! Actually.. There's been a rumor recently.. That you and Bro Shan.. Are dating and all sorts of things..”

She then added, ”But Sis Feng, don't worry! They're all just baseless talks! They will disappear as soon as time passes by..”

Li Yuri: ”??”

Why did it feel like Sis Feng was coaxing her not to misunderstand them..

Qi Feng noticed her confusion and was about to say something else when the bell rang and the class started.

---

Lunchtime. Cafeteria.

Li Yuri looked at the gloomy Mo Xuanji and nudged Tang Min, who was beside her, ”What happened to her?”

The latter innocently shrugged as he muttered, ”I don't know.”

He then pointed the carrots in her plate. ”Give me all your carrots. I'll eat them for you.”

Li Yuri happily passed her carrots to him using her chopsticks.

Sitting across from them, Qi Feng saw this and subconsciously glanced at Lu Jeongshan, who was sitting on the other side of Li Yuri.

'Weird. He fought with his father for her, yet he's actually silently watching her with another boy?'

Su Lan raised her face from her plate as she quietly peered at the five of them, who were busy in their own thoughts.
