"So, how do you know him?" Mo Xuanji asked Li Yuri, who was deep in thought.
Li Yuri was visibly taken aback but she quickly acted nonchalant, "Uh? Sis Xuanji, I told you that he stole from me!"
Su Lan blatantly rolled her eyes as she licked her candy, "Sis Ri, you should go attend acting classes! I can easily see through your lies!"
Li Yuri pouted as she put her ID card away safely and explained them about that day.
"..That's what happened."
Qi Feng raised her brows, "He borrowed money from you?"
"Mmh, his friend was in some trouble so I lent him." Li Yuri was suddenly curious, "By the way, Sis Feng, he seemed to know your brother.."
Su Lan blinked. "Goddess Feng, you have a brother?" Qi Feng indifferently answered, "I have a twin brother, nothing special."
"Woah, twins! That's so cool!"
"Your brother must be handsome since you're so beautiful, Sis Feng!"
Mo Xuanji abruptly spoke, "The class is about to start, let's go inside quickly!" The other three nodded and entered the class.
The bell had yet to ring so the four girls sat around each other.
Li Yuri was speaking excitedly, "So I was walking the other day and suddenly-"
A voice interrupted her, "Who's Qi Feng?!"
Everyone turned silent. Qi Feng stood up and indifferently said, "It's me."
"Sis Lili has something to say to you! Hmph!" The girl reluctantly spoke. Jin Li, who was standing in the middle, steepled forward.
Everyone started ushering to each other.
"Oh my God! A clash between the ex-belle and the current one!"
"I smell a drama ahead! Let me take out my popcorn!"
"Why's the school Belle- I mean Jin Li looking for Goddess Feng??"
"Tsk, don't you know about Jin Li's confession and how she was turned down by Bro Shan!"
"Are the rumors really true? The current belle snatched the previous one's title as well as boyfriend!"
"Hey, you can't say that Sis Feng snatched her boyfriend because Jin Li and Bro Shan never dated at all!"
Li Yuri was anxious as she whispered. "Is she here to do something??" Su Lan blinked and opened another candy. "I feel so nervous!"
"..." Mo Xuanji was silent.
She felt like she knew what was going to happen. At the same time, she felt conflicted inside.
Jin Li looked at Qi Feng and spoke angrily, "Student Qi, you shouldn't play with Bro Shan's heart like that! He loves you so much, yet you.."
"??" Qi Feng was stunned. She subconsciously glanced at Li Yuri. How did she turn into the person in his heart??
She cleared her throat, "You're misunderstanding-"
Jin Li interrupted her, "Even if you're haughty, you shouldn't hurt him like this! Bro Shan was so hurt by you that he even got into a fight!"
Qi Feng was speechless.
Su Lan couldn't help but stand up, "Jin Li, why are you scolding Sis Feng?! And what nonsense are you talking about?!"
Jin Li's sidekick scoffed, "Tsk, don't act like you don't know! The scandal that's all over the forum! About how the two hunks fought for the new transfer student!"
Mo Xuanji nearly rolled her eyes. 'These people are really foolish. They don't even know that they're getting the wrong girl.'
Not that she didn't want to tell them, she just didn't want to do so.
If she revealed that the girl Lu Jeongshan really liked was Li Yuri, not Qi Feng, then she'll put her in danger instead.
Qi Feng might be able to handle the rumors well because of her status but Li Yuri was a naive girl who didn't know the dark side of rumors.
So she didn't speak up and merely just watched.
Li Yuri grabbed her sleeves nervously, "Xuanji, what is happening?? Will they trouble Sis Feng?"
"..No, I don't think so." Mo Xuanji smiled assuringly.
Even if these girls dared to scold her, they won't really do anything to her since the Qi Family was very powerful and even the Jin Family didn't dare to offend them.
Just like what she thought, Jin Li pulled her friend back before gracefully speaking to Qi Feng.
"I know you're beautiful and rich, but you can't just two-time. I hope you don't break Bro Shan's heart anymore."
Then, she left with her sidekicks grumbling behind her. Qi Feng was truly stunned but she could figure out roughly about what happened.
Forum. It was that damn forum again.
She took out her phone and immediately saw the hot topic without even having to search anything.
After reading the whole thing, Qi Feng then pursed her lips coldly and logged out before texting someone.
~~~~~
The rest of the day went like this.
Li Yuri was packing her backpack when she was called by someone. She looked up and greeted, "Mr. Gong."
Mr. Gong coughed, "Class President Li, where is the Vice President right now?"
"Oh, Bro Shan must be in the nurse's office. Why?" Li Yuri replied plainly, her face the epitome of the word melancholic.
Bro Shan didn't come to the class at all, nor did Tang Min.
She felt worried about them but didn't butt in, because she thought she was being too clingy.
Teacher Gong was surprised, "Why's he there? Is he not feeling well?"
He was busy all day long and didn't even have time to do anything else, much less check out the forum.
The Headmaster wanted to inform him but as he was out for work, he didn't say anything and just decided to tell him later.
Li Yuri explained the incident to him. Mr. Gong sighed, "These kids nowadays.. Anyways, if you see him, come to my office together with him, alright?"
Li Yuri nodded and watched as he left. She then bowed her head to continue packing her bag.
Qi Feng said there was something on so she had left earlier while Su Lan's father came to the office because of the teacher's complaint so she went home with him.
Mo Xuanji leaned against the door and smiled at her walking out. "Done? Why did Mr. Gong look for you?"
Li Yuri recounted his words before smiling awkwardly, "Sorry, Xuanji but can you go back yourself? I need to wait for Bro Shan so I won't be able to go home with you today."
Mo Xuanji gently shook her head and pinched Li Yuri's face. "Don't worry, I'll go back myself. Goodbye."
She then continued while walking backwards, "If Lu Jeongshan doesn't come, just go home, okay? Don't keep waiting like a fool!"
Li Yuri smiled brightly and nodded, "Okay, bye!"
