For Cheng Shimumeng, today was another interesting day.
The time was already approaching lunch break; she sat in her seat, observing An Yu and the people around her as always.
As an onlooker, Cheng Shimumeng’s perspective was very clear.
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a somewhat pleased smile.
Today, An Yu had also brought her an incomparably fresh experience.
Although both An Yu and Ning Wanciu were behaving the same as usual, there was one person who had undergone earth-shattering changes.
That person was precisely An Qing.
She could also be considered one of Cheng Shimumeng’s observation targets.
Because An Qing’s gaze, Cheng Shimumeng hated it, hated it very much.
But starting today, everything had changed.
An Qing’s gaze was no longer so detestable; it even carried a bit of meaning that Cheng Shimumeng couldn’t understand.
Although no one else had noticed this, Cheng Shimumeng, who very much liked watching interesting things, could see it at a glance.
This was very interesting.
Clearly, it was just one day without coming to school, and such a big change had occurred.
Yesterday, what exactly had happened?
And this change was most likely because of An Yu again.
Cheng Shimumeng propped up her chin and shifted her gaze to An Yu.
Today’s An Yu was the same as usual; during class time, she was slacking off, not knowing what she was thinking about.
Maybe thinking about what to eat later, or what position to use for a nap.
But no matter what she was thinking, it probably had nothing to do with An Qing.
“Hum~ Mm~”
Cheng Shimumeng narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at An Qing again.
Although she didn’t like An Qing, she was really curious about what method An Yu had used to make An Qing change into this appearance overnight.
Especially since from An Yu, Cheng Shimumeng couldn’t feel any change at all.
This was… interesting.
Ding ling—
Lunch break time had arrived, not allowing Cheng Shimumeng to think like this anymore.
They had established a club; as the honorary president of the Nap Club, she had to take her members to nap~
On the other side, An Qing had almost dazedly passed the entire morning.
After arriving at school, she subconsciously looked at An Yu for a while, but An Yu had never looked up at her once.
Then, time pushed An Qing to take action.
Clearly, she cared immensely in her heart, but she still no longer looked at An Yu, instead acting as usual.
Returning to her seat, greeting Shen Huahua, normally attending class, listening to lectures, taking notes.
This was her persona; she had always been like this.
An Qing had put on a hypocritical mask; even if she wanted to take it off, she couldn’t.
She could almost do these things without thinking, things she originally wasn’t good at.
All of this was to get revenge on An Yu.
But no matter how long she thought, she couldn’t imagine a scene where An Yu cared because of these.
Clearly, right after rebirth, she could easily imagine it.
Even now, An Qing didn’t know if her understanding of An Yu had any deviations.
But she knew that she seemed to be stuck here by reality.
Unable to retreat, only able to keep moving forward constantly.
Sometimes, she almost forgot…
She was getting revenge on An Yu, not on herself.
“An Qing?”
Beside her, it seemed someone was calling An Qing, but she didn’t react.
The voice was very familiar, but not the one she wanted to respond to.
“Hmm? An Qing?!!”
Seeing An Qing didn’t react, the girl calling her raised her volume.
“Ah…” An Qing instantly snapped awake; she turned her head toward the voice and saw Shen Huahua with a face full of doubt at a glance. “Shen Huahua… what’s wrong with you?”
“Eh?” Hearing An Qing’s question, Shen Huahua subconsciously froze, but quickly reacted.
“What do you mean what’s wrong with me? I want to ask what you’re spacing out for!”
An Qing was stunned. “Spacing out?”
“Yeah!”
Shen Huahua said matter-of-factly:
“I called you several times!”
An Qing pursed her lips, feeling somewhat irritated in her heart.
“Is that so.”
She lowered her head, seeming to want to adjust her expression, but she really couldn’t smile.
She always felt that if she tried to maintain her usual smile now, it would become very terrifying.
So better forget it.
But An Qing hadn’t expected that even this somewhat silly guy had noticed her abnormality.
“Yeah, I see you….. You must still be unwell!”
Shen Huahua had a look of realization, her mouth carrying a sunny smile.
“Aiya, then I have to say something to you. If you’re sick, how can you only take one day off!” Shen Huahua extended one finger. “If it were me, I’d at least take a week!”
“Ah, ah…
… Is that so…”
An Qing breathed a sigh of relief; she had thought Shen Huahua wanted to say something else.
After all, this person had a record; inexplicably discovering that she would look at An Yu, then suddenly taking her over.
“An Qing?”
Shen Huahua frowned; she still felt that An Qing was strange somewhere…
Hmm… really still unwell?
“Yes… Isn’t it because I feel that taking too long off would miss a lot of classes, not very good.” An Qing forced out a reluctant smile.
“Besides, my illness is really better, no big deal.”
“Really no big deal?”
“Yes, really.”
An Qing nodded.
She hadn’t even thought of an excuse herself, and Shen Huahua had helped her find one.
“Sigh~” Shen Huahua nodded steadily; it was obvious she believed An Qing’s words.
“Alright, then let’s go; it’s time to buy lunch.”
An Qing and Shen Huahua, from the time they met, had always gone to the supermarket or cafeteria to buy lunch.
They had never brought anything themselves to eat.
“Ah! Wait, An Qing, you just sit!”
Shen Huahua’s steadiness didn’t last long; she quickly revealed a cheerful smile.
She didn’t let An Qing get up, instead saying on her own:
“Since you’re unwell, An Qing, then today, I’ll, your friend, go buy lunch for you!”
Hearing this, An Qing frowned.
“Ah?”
But before An Qing could react, Shen Huahua smiled and patted An Qing’s shoulder, then revealed a determined look.
“Leave it to me; you can leave it all to me!”
After saying that, Shen Huahua instantly ran toward the door.
It was nothing more than running an errand to buy one more lunch; of course she could do such a small thing well!
This time, absolutely no accidents!
An Qing shook her head; she had no way with Shen Huahua.
And it wasn’t a big deal; just right that no one was bothering her now.
Unless, she could have an accident even going to buy lunch.
An Qing had just wanted to turn her head, but happened to see the group of four preparing to leave the classroom, heading to who knows where.
Among them, An Yu and Ning Wanciu were holding hands, softly whispering to each other.
The red-haired girl followed behind them, chattering away.
Only the green-haired girl walking at the end turned her head and met An Qing’s gaze for a moment.
