The teacher, who would never have tolerated such behaviour from anyone except the two who were actually doing it, had had enough.
Ying Xuan and Wei Jingyu were acting as though they were alone and not in a class.
The teacher, who would have suspended any other student for acting this way, only gave the two of them detention for a week.
Xuan and Jingyu, on the other hand, seemed to awake from a dream. They both had actually forgotten that they were in a class, Jingyu as soon as he sat down, and Xuan when he had blown in her ear.
So hearing the teacher, Ying Xuan was startled before she remembered what has happened and immediately blushed scarlet.
She sat down with her head bowed down, chin touching her chest.
Wei Jingyu, on the other hand, stood up. He said in a loud voice, "What's wrong sir? Why are you giving the two of us detention? Did we do something to displease you?"
Hearing his provoking tone, the teacher almost burst into flames and Xuan wished she could dig a hole in the ground to hide.
The teacher said through gritted teeth, "Miss Ying. Young master Wei. You both will serve detentions for a week starting from today. And right now, leave my class."
It was clear how much self-control the teacher was exercising to keep his voice normal.
Wei Jingyu was feeling exceptionally rebellious today. He opened his mouth to say something, but Ying Xuan grabbed his wrist with one hand, picked up both of their bags with the other and rushed out of the class, pulling Jingyu behind her.
Xuan's head was down as the whole class stared either in astonishment or amusement at the two, and the teacher followed them with narrowed eyes. Wei Jingyu, on the other hand, seemed like a kid who had been given a candy he really liked as he let himself be pulled by Ying Xuan out of the class.
Among all the commotion the two of them had caused, no one had noticed one girl sitting in the corner with a hateful expression on her face and the tears in her eyes.
Ying Xi had been staring at Xuan ever since she entered the class. She was the only one who noticed Xuan's expression turn to one of extreme joy when Jingyu came in, as the rest of the class was focused on him.
Xi had felt as though something was burning in her heart when she saw how the two of them were acting, probably just to spite her.
She had almost burst into flames when she had observed Jingyu sliding closer to Xuan and the latter playing hard to get.
Tears had started to fall out of her eyes when Jingyu blew in Xuan's ear. That expression! That one of extreme adoreness! What would she not have given for Jingyu to look at her like that!
When Xuan and Jingyu had on the smug expression one after the other, Xi had obviously not seen the kick and had come to the conclusion that Xuan had only thought of the plan to spite her and make her jealous.
With a princess syndrome as big as her's, it had never occurred to her that Xuan and Jingyu were actually so engrossed in their little banter that they had forgotten everyone around them.
