After leaving home, I put on my earphones as usual and walked to school, listening to music composed by Hiroyuki Sawano.
I’ll ask Miss Shirley about things at school later, though I have a feeling she’ll just mock me about it.
I really hope I don’t run into any more bizarre situations. After all I’ve been through, has it finally served to ward off bad luck? I shouldn’t be chased anymore, right?
I crossed the school gate with a complicated feeling, hugging my arms. The time was about the same as when I used to go to school. There weren’t too many students yet, so I was among the earliest arrivals.
Walking into the main school building and up the stairs to the second floor, I saw someone standing at the end of the hallway, taking a deep breath as if to compose herself. There weren’t many classmates who arrived earlier than me, so who could it be?
I slightly lowered my glasses and checked the person’s title.
【Stalker (Intermediate)】
【Lanhua】
It’s Lanhua… Wait, no, is that… Intermediate? I remember the title used to be Beginner. When did it evolve to Intermediate? Has the Stalker rank increased? I can imagine what kind of behavior an Intermediate Stalker would exhibit. If they only used to secretly follow people, now they might be taking photos, or even resorting to trespassing.
Also, the color has become… strange. It’s a mix of gray, green, blue, orange, pink, and various other colors, creating an indescribable, peculiar hue. It’s not only uncomfortable but also quite glaring. What kind of color is that, a mixture of love and hate? The previous gray was infinitely better!
I quickly put my glasses back on, immensely relieved. Thankfully, I bought my glasses on Saturday. Otherwise, looking at that repulsive color for a long time might have made me sick. What kind of experiences would lead to such complex emotions?
Speaking of which, not only the title but even her appearance has changed. No wonder I didn’t recognize her at first. She changed her hairstyle. It’s a youthful and lively side ponytail. As she turns her head slightly, the ponytail brushes her shoulder, and her slanted bangs just sweep over her eyelids. Her long eyelashes flutter slightly, and for some reason, her cheeks are a little flushed. Is it because the spring chill has passed and the temperature has risen?
No, it’s probably because she’s wearing makeup. This is what you’d call ‘dressed up.’ Is she planning to confess to someone? Impressive. She looks so much prettier than before, truly catching one’s eye. It’s true that people change when they have someone they like.
I wonder which poor soul has fallen for Lanhua, the Stalker with the Stalker attribute? How unfortunate for him. This person, about to be hounded, will likely experience absolute lack of freedom.
Ugh, we’re all in the same boat, so I’m in no position to judge… Perhaps Lanhua, with her Stalker attribute, is much better than Lianbing’s extremely perverted hobbies…
That’s right! Come to think of it, Lanhua likes Lianbing! Could it be that she finally couldn’t suppress her feelings and is preparing to confess to the older sister she admires… Ah, I see. Is that why she has such complicated emotions, right before making such a public declaration?
Cough, cough, wait. If the older sister she admires is Lianbing… then I… I am officially Jianxueqing’s boyfriend. That’s why Lanhua bombarded me with envious and jealous vibes last time.
This is bad. If she sees me at such an important moment, will she suddenly lash out at me? She might even stalk me every day to find fault with me… That’s terrifying!
No, no, no, I absolutely must avoid this situation! I’ll just walk past her calmly. Yes, I’ll pretend I didn’t recognize her!
I quickened my pace, lowered my head, focused my gaze, and walked along the left wall of the corridor. Just as I was about to pass her, Yingnuo Gao, standing behind her, patted her shoulder and pointed at me with her index finger.
What have you done?!
Lanhua’s face turned red, her shoulders trembling slightly as if she were holding back something. Bloodshot veins appeared in her eyes as she glared at me. This was clearly an expression of pure rage, about to erupt like a volcano!
I can’t! I need to get away quickly!
“Um… Jun…”
I heard the word “Jun”! She must be trying to call me! With an uneasy heart, I lengthened and quickened my stride, walking straight past Lanhua, and greeted Yingliang Luo behind her as if I knew nothing.
“Yo, Yingliang, you’re here early.”
I chatted a lot with him via messaging software during my hospital stay. He’s my first friend since high school, so we’re quite close. He’s a good guy, really. Even when I’m blunt, he can respond easily. He’s a very skilled conversationalist.
So, my friend, please let me escape with your help this time!
“Uh…”
Hey, hey, I’m mustering the courage to talk to you, what’s with that expression?
“What’s wrong? Why do you look like you’re constipated?”
“No… um, please destroy the files in my cloud drive…”
Online, Yingliang acted like an old pro, possessing all sorts of rare resources. It was almost his most valuable possession. Now he’s asking me to destroy them. He’s truly given up!
“Why are you saying something that sounds like a last will and testament all of a sudden?!”
“Remember to burn the One Piece manga for me…”
“You’re really going to die!”
I chatted with Yingliang about meaningless things, casually walking into the classroom. Just before entering, I secretly glanced back. She was still standing there, her back to me, lost in thought. She didn’t turn around…
Phew… I think I got away safely. I patted Yingliang on the shoulder gratefully.
“Thanks.”
Yingliang pushed up his glasses and said faintly.
“…I feel like you tricked me.”
“Ahaha, that’s just your imagination, yeah, imagination.”
By using the low-level tactic of pretending not to see, I safely avoided a potential explosion. As I neared my seat, my girlfriend, who seemed to be a permanent fixture there, shifted her gaze from the window to me and cheerily greeted me.
“Ohlias, good morning, Jun Cheng. How was Miss Shirley’s technique? Just her hands made you couldn’t help but shoot, right?”
“You… Don’t start with dirty jokes this early in the morning…” If your fans knew you were actually a woman full of lewd jokes, they’d be terribly disappointed!
Hmm? Wait. If Lianbing is already in the classroom, who is Lanhua waiting for?
“What’s wrong, Jun Cheng? You have a sudden expression like you woke up this morning to find your younger sister sleeping beside you, unclothed.”
“What a bizarre analogy!” And it’s quite realistic!
“She’s just concerned about your health. I’ve heard that boys need to release tension regularly, otherwise, their bodies will get all bottled up.”
“That doesn’t mean your maid should help me!”
“Oh, is it okay for your sister but not for your maid? I thought you were just a maid fetishist, but it turns out you’re also a severe sister complex? Oh dear, what a terrible boyfriend you are. Having special thoughts about your own sister. What am I supposed to do then? I don’t want to see my sister-in-law in bed, do I?”
“Hey, hey, hey! Stop talking!”
I anxiously reached out and covered Ji Lianbing’s mouth. I looked around the classroom; thankfully, there were very few people, and no one was paying attention to us. This girl really says anything that comes to mind… Can’t you at least not say such things in the classroom!
Turning back, I was about to admonish her when my hand was licked. As if shocked by electricity, I tried to pull my hand away, but she, like a snake emerging from its hole, accurately clamped down on my middle finger. Her rosy lips touched the base of my finger, and my entire finger was sucked into her mouth. It felt like my finger had been plunged into a ball of wet dough. My fingertip touched something soft, while the back of my finger brushed against the slightly rough roof of her mouth. That soft thing was undoubtedly her tongue, and Lianbing was even thoughtfully wrapping her tongue around my finger, providing soft protection to the back of my finger. She continued to swallow my finger further, like a snake swallowing its prey, as if she were going to eat my finger… Finally, my finger reached the deepest point, and my fingertip touched another soft area, which must have been the tonsil…
Wait! What am I analyzing here! Now is not the time to be calm!
Fearing that others might notice, I bent down and said to her urgently, “Hey! Let go!”
However, she showed no signs of letting go. Instead, she smiled seductively and began to suck… What?! What is she doing!
I was startled and wanted to pull my finger out, but Lianbing held onto it tightly, sucking and licking as if to lick away my flesh and blood.
Then… I was bitten.
“Ah!”
My cry really attracted others’ attention. Damn it! If anyone sees me like this, my reputation will be ruined! Jianxueqing is actually a pervert who asks his girlfriend to suck his fingers. Within a few classes, this news will be all over the place!
Why did you suddenly bite me, and with so much force? I feel like my finger was almost bitten off!
I glared at her, but Lianbing had already returned to her previous pose, propping her chin on her hand and looking out the window, as if nothing had happened. This girl…! Argh, she’s so infuriating!
Just then, the handkerchief Miss Shirley gave me came in handy. I quickly took it out to wipe my wet finger, curling my lips in a grimace…
“Why did you suddenly do that…”
“Hehehe… Why do you think?”
Lianbing chuckled and didn’t answer my question, her gaze passing through me and looking behind me. I followed her gaze and looked back. Jianxueqing was standing behind me at some point, holding a book, and her gaze… was on my finger?
From behind, Lianbing’s provocative voice carried.
“How is it? Envious?”
“…”
Jianxueqing said nothing. She just stared intently at my finger for a good while, then quietly turned and sat down in her seat. Puzzled, I turned back to look at Lianbing. She just raised her chin, covered her mouth, and let out a triumphant laugh.
“Hehehehe~”
I’m still completely bewildered. What on earth is going on…
