Chapter 394: Check out the School Forum
Today morning and before, the school forum was pretty quiet, no different from usual.
During this time, most of the discussions were about the start of the school year. The ‘Moments incident’ during the winter holiday had long since lost its heat.
It had indeed caused a stir at the beginning, but as there was no follow-up, the topic quickly died down.
However, starting from noon today, the school forum’s popularity exploded. The reason was the exposure of the campus beauty’s true identity.
She was Ye Ziming’s deskmate, Lin Muqing!
First-floor comment: “This is outrageous. The campus beauty is right beside me.”
Second-floor comment: “No wonder no one knew which class the top campus beauty was in.”
Fifth-floor comment: “Wait, am I the only one who cares about their relationship?”
Tenth-floor comment: “Hahaha! If Lin Muqing and Lin Muxue are the same person, doesn’t that mean they’ve always been together.”
…
Fiftieth-floor comment: “Awesome. Dating under the teachers’ noses while cross-dressing during a crackdown! (Laughs)”
…
Hundredth-floor comment: “This move, the ‘Muxue’ fans and ‘Muqing’ fans both win, but the biggest winner is actually Ye Ziming. (Grin)”
In the office, Qiu Zhihe kept scrolling through her phone, browsing the school forum posts. The more she read, the more subtle her expression became.
Her students had gotten into trouble this early?
In the comments of these posts, someone dug up photos taken last semester of Lin Muqing and Ye Ziming interacting.
At the time, these photos had been posted online, and everyone just thought there was some ‘bromance’ going on. Then, rumors spread that both Ye Ziming and Lin Muqing were gay.
However, when they discovered that Lin Muqing was actually the campus beauty, a bunch of people were stunned and felt a sense of suffocation.
Because in this situation, Ye Ziming was on another level, and the air was too thin.
As for the ‘stock trading’ that a group of people used to play when they had nothing better to do, it also entered a strange win-win situation due to today’s events.
This outcome was unexpected by anyone, including Qiu Zhihe, who was looking at her phone.
“Oh, aren’t these your students?”
As Qiu Zhihe was focused on her phone, a teacher from the same office leaned in from behind her.
“Yes.”
Turning her head, Qiu Zhihe saw the subtle smile on her colleague’s face and her mood became even more complicated.
“Tsk tsk tsk, incredible. I heard from my students that your students are quite something.”
“…”
Facing her colleague’s teasing, Qiu Zhihe didn’t know how to respond, feeling a bit awkward.
Moreover, if even this teacher knew about it, then the entire office basically knew…
Sigh~ This matter is really complicated. Let’s just wait until tomorrow to call the parents.
…
In the classroom, after Ye Ziming had appeased Xiaomuqing, the second class began.
The subject teachers in the second semester of the second year of high school basically remained the same, so the teacher greeted everyone warmly as soon as they appeared.
However, after not seeing each other for a winter holiday, more than forty students in the class had undergone some changes. So, the teacher took out the class roster.
He planned to get reacquainted with the entire class by calling roll.
Then… something a bit awkward happened.
“Lin Muqing.”
“Here.”
“Um. Um!?”
Halfway through the roll call, the old teacher on the podium suddenly froze.
He blinked rapidly, looked down at the roster, then looked up at Lin Muqing’s seat, his eyes filled with confusion.
That’s not right. Although the roster didn’t indicate gender, he remembered Lin Muqing as a boy with a name that sounded a bit feminine.
Just as the teacher was scratching his head, wondering if his memory was failing him, Lin Wenbin took the lead in explaining.
“Teacher, this is Lin Muqing.”
“Yes, Lin Muqing is a girl.”
“…”
With a few people in the classroom offering explanations, the teacher soon revealed a look of understanding.
He nodded to himself and then said with a smile, “Oh, so I remembered incorrectly.”
Lin Wenbin: “No! Teacher, you didn’t remember incorrectly.”
“?”
The teacher was confused again, completely bewildered.
After Lin Wenbin and Zhang Xiaoling took turns explaining, he finally had a rough understanding of the situation.
“I see. It’s alright, let’s continue with the lesson.”
Saying that, he quieted the discussions in the class, cast a complex glance at Lin Muqing, and continued teaching.
During this class, Xiaomuqing tried her best to reduce her presence. Except when the teacher asked her a question, she didn’t say a word.
This was too much to handle, and it was awkward.
Fortunately, she had two relatively useful ‘good brothers’ who helped her a lot with explanations at crucial moments, relieving much of her pressure.
After the class ended, Xiaomuqing sat on her desk, propping up her head, adopting a posture of ‘hands on the desk, minding no business.’
Forget it, time would fade many things. All that was left was to endure the last class.
“Lin Muqing, want to go together?”
In less than two minutes, Zhang Xiaoling and Wang Wenxin came over together, inviting her to go to the restroom.
Xiaomuqing didn’t think much of it. Hearing Zhang Xiaoling’s words, she suddenly felt the urge too, so she accepted their invitation.
However, before getting up from her seat, Xiaomuqing turned her head, extended her hand to Ye Ziming, and then gestured with her mouth.
Facing this situation, Ye Ziming raised his eyebrows, said nothing, and familiarly reached into his schoolbag. A small pack of tissues appeared in his palm.
Then, as he handed the tissues to Xiaomuqing, he gently held her hand and said to her with a meaningful smile:
“Remember what I told you.”
“Uh.”
Looking at her good brother’s strange smile, Xiaomuqing nodded blankly, a bit dazed and unable to react immediately.
Afterward, as she walked out of the classroom with Zhang Xiaoling towards the restroom, passing by the entrance of the men’s restroom, she finally remembered what her good brother had said at noon today.
“If you want to go to the men’s restroom, I’ll ‘fence’ with you in there.”
Hiss! The moment she thought of this sentence, Xiaomuqing shivered almost imperceptibly, and suddenly panicked.
Afterward, let alone going to the men’s restroom, she didn’t even dare to look at the sign for the men’s restroom, for fear that her good brother would drag her in to ‘fence.’
That kind of scene, just thinking about it, was so fuckable.
“Hehe, Xiaomuqing didn’t go the wrong way this time.”
Because Xiaomuqing’s movements were very subtle, Zhang Xiaoling and Wang Wenxin didn’t notice.
However, when they reached the entrance of the women’s restroom, they still teased Xiaomuqing.
Their words were quite veiled, and passersby wouldn’t understand, but Xiaomuqing knew very well what Zhang Xiaoling was referring to.
“emmm.”
Xiaomuqing successfully used her blushing face to cover up her inner panic.
Then she averted her gaze and looked elsewhere, not letting others see the guilt in her eyes.
