Back in her dorm room, Ruan Yu’s first action was to search for information about the Red Eagle Street Dance Competition. However, since street dance was a niche culture with few followers, the information available online was quite limited. After looking around, she only managed to memorize the names of a few past champions.

“Ruan Ruan, where did you go this afternoon?” Chen Manbai brought over a box of washed cherry tomatoes, placing them on Ruan Yu’s desk and gesturing for everyone to come to eat.

“I had something to take care of,” Ruan Yu answered vaguely, mentioning neither You Lexuan’s provocation nor Teng Yi’s.

“You don’t know what happened after you left. The class advisor gave You Lexuan a severe scolding. Not just us, but many others in the class were also pressured by You Lexuan. When the advisor asked around, all the grievances exploded. The scene was comparable to overthrowing a corrupt official in ancient times,” Chen Manbai described vividly.

“So what happened?”

“She was removed from her position as class monitor,” Xia Qiaofeng answered.

“Doesn’t that mean we’re without leadership now?”

“Not at all. The vice monitor has been promoted.”

“Wang Jing?”

“Yes.” Chen Manbai laughed heartily, “Wang Jing was still at the broadcasting station reading encouragement messages. He had no idea about anything and suddenly became a class monitor. A typical case of fortune falling from the sky while sitting at home.”

“You Lexuan must be furious. What if she retaliates against us later?” Jian Xiangxiang worried.

“What’s there to be afraid of!” Chen Manbai tossed a bright red cherry tomato into her mouth, “Our dorm has Ruan Ruan for brains and me for brawn. Can’t we handle a former class monitor?”

“That’s true. Thanks to Ruan Ruan’s clever idea this time, otherwise we wouldn’t have known how to deal with You Lexuan.” Jian Xiangxiang picked up a tomato and held it to Ruan Yu’s mouth, “Here, say ah.”

Ruan Yu bit into the tomato, its sweet and sour taste instantly covering her taste buds.

“But Ruan Ruan, what’s your relationship with that Han Zuo?” Jian Xiangxiang suddenly changed the topic.

Chen Manbai and Xia Qiaofeng’s gossip souls immediately ignited as they turned their attention to Ruan Yu.

“No relationship,” Ruan Yu said decisively.

They had no relationship at all, just two strangers meeting for the first time.

“How is that possible? The way he rushed over to hug you, it seemed like you knew each other well,” Jian Xiangxiang nudged Xia Qiaofeng, “Right, Qiaofeng?”

Xia Qiaofeng nodded.

At the time, they were both right next to Han Zuo and saw everything.

“Can’t he just be kind-hearted?”

“Fine, fine,” Jian Xiangxiang smirked, “Even if you didn’t know each other before, you do now. He helped us so much, shouldn’t we properly thank him?”

“I advise you to drop that idea and let this matter pass quickly,” Ruan Yu took off her jacket, preparing to shower.

“Why?”

“The class advisor is his uncle.”

“What?” the three exclaimed in unison.

“So pursuing this further won’t benefit us,” Ruan Yu grabbed her pajamas and walked toward the bathroom, reminding the three behind her, “You’d better take detours when you see him in the future, don’t bring trouble upon yourselves.”

“Ah, we were hoping to match you with Han Zuo,” Jian Xiangxiang said disappointedly, “You don’t know how much it looked like a drama scene when he carried you running. You two look perfect together.”

“You think I match with any guy who stands next to me.”

“That’s not true. I don’t think Wang Jing matches you.”

“Leave him alone, what did he do to you?”

“I’m just making a comparison, just showing that I do have aesthetic standards for your potential partner. I think for a girl as good as you, only handsome guys like Han Zuo or Teng Yi are worthy!”

Teng Yi…

Ruan Yu recalled the secret he shared with her today. He didn’t have to tell her so much, he did it just to comfort her.

How could he be so good?

So good that even if it meant her downfall, she still wanted to like him.

“Why are you standing there in a daze?” Jian Xiangxiang asked.

Ruan Yu snapped back to reality and hurried into the bathroom.

“I’m going to shower.”
