Chapter 26: Campus, The Power of Influence

  The sun rises in the east, and the gray mist gradually disperses. The sunlight shines everywhere, and the whole school is enveloped in a golden glow.

  The spacious CAO stadium is filled with classmates who get up early to exercise, each looking energetic and refreshed, with sweat and smiles blending together on campus.

  Dew drops on the grass in the lawn are like a string of crystal clear pearls, shining under the sunlight.

  A group of people gathered in the center of the CAO field, one of whom pointed at Chu Ying'er and Qin Ye'lan who were walking towards them from a distance and said, "Hey!! Look, isn't that Chu Ying'er? It seems like we haven't seen her for a long time. Hmm! There's a handsome guy next to her."

  Classmate A: "Really?! It's really Chu Ying'er! The handsome guy next to her looks unfamiliar, shouldn't he be from our school?" If he were from their school, she wouldn't possibly not know him, being a handsome-guy enthusiast and all. She knows every single one of the few good-looking guys in Shiji High School.

  Classmate B: "Don't you guys think that handsome guy with Chuying looks a bit familiar, like we've seen him somewhere before?"

  Student C: "Oh yeah."

  D classmate: "Ah! I remembered, do you guys still remember the night of the school gala a week ago? Wasn't that... wasn't that the handsome guy who gave Chuying a big bouquet of flowers on stage?"

  Classmate A: "Wow! He's so handsome! I wonder if he's Chu Ying'er's new boyfriend?"

  Classmate B: "No way! I heard that her childhood sweetheart boyfriend didn't pass away just last year?"

  "Shh! You'd better not talk nonsense, they're coming over here."

  Chu Ying'er and Qin Ye Leng walked shoulder to shoulder, passing by those people who stared at them one by one. Chu Ying'er nodded politely at them and continued walking forward with Qin Ye Leng.

  After they passed by, Classmate A let out a cry of surprise, "Oh my god! Did you guys just see that? Chu Ying'er just nodded at us!"

  Classmate C: "Are you stupid? Are your eyes blurry? How could she possibly nod at us? But the guy next to her is really handsome! Super cool!"

  ……

  Due to her martial arts training, Chu Ying'er had extremely good hearing, and she heard every word they said without missing a single one. She turned her head around in puzzlement and glanced at the group of people behind her, asking Qin Ye Lian, "Lian, what is this 'good-looking' thing?"

  "Is he handsome?" Qin Yesan raised an eyebrow, why did this idiot suddenly ask that?

  "He's so handsome, referring to a boy who looks very good-looking. Don't ask me these boring questions again." Only those stupid girls would often use words like "so handsome" and "so cool".

  "Oh!!"

  Chu Ying'er pursed her lips and smiled slyly, it turns out that "good-looking" refers to a boy who looks very handsome. So earlier when those people said Lan is good-looking, they meant that Lan looks very handsome.

  She couldn't help but steal a glance at Qin Yelan's profile, a beautiful profile, a straight nose, 360 degrees, without any flaws, no matter how you look at it, it's always good-looking.

  No wonder they said Lian was so handsome, it turns out that Lian really looks very good. (Qin Ye Lian scolded: You're really stupid, only discovering this now. Author kicked him away: Handsome your head, be careful I'll make you die ugly.)

  "Hey! What are you looking at?"

  All the way to the teaching building, Qin Yelan finally couldn't stand her occasional glances at him, it was really stupid, being stared at by those idiots all the way was annoying enough, what was she trying to join in on.

  "No, no way!"

  Caught peeking, Chu Ying'er's adorable tongue poked out, and she quickly shifted her gaze elsewhere.

  A dead duck with a hard beak, obviously sneaking a peek at him but refusing to admit it.

  Qin Ye frowned, "Hey! What are you doing?! Come on, I'll take you to the classroom first, so you won't get lost like a fool." In fact, she was worried that she herself would get lost on the way to the classroom, but she refused to admit it.

  Thinking of worrying about her, Qin Ye Leng turned around with a stuffy face and walked forward by herself.

  "Lin, don't go so fast, wait for me!"

  Chu Ying'er hastily chased after Qin Ye-lan who had already walked several meters away.
