Hearing the noise, Liu Yi was stunned and instinctively looked toward the source.
She saw that it was the girl’s phone ringing.
But she thought it was just a coincidence, so she continued waiting for the other person to answer her own call.
However, the moment the graceful girl picked up the phone, Liu Yi noticed that her own phone’s ringtone had stopped instantly.
What followed was a moment of silence, with faint, light breathing seemingly coming through.
“Hello?”
Now Liu Yi felt something was very wrong.
She occasionally glanced at the girl across from her, who still had her head lowered, and was the first to ask a question.
But unexpectedly, right after she spoke, a faint sound came from the other side… And it seemed to be…
her own voice? What the hell? Was Lin Xinyuan nearby?
But the only people near her were the two in front of her.
Wait… In an instant, Liu Yi had a bold guess.
She stared directly at the girl not far away who was holding her phone to her ear, disbelief flashing across her face.
“Lin Xinyuan?”
She raised her voice, and immediately a clearer echo of her own voice came from the other side.
This…
“Mmm…” This time, the other side finally responded—a soft hum as faint as a mosquito’s buzz, utterly unlike a boy’s voice.
At this point, Liu Yi seemed to understand something. Her beautiful eyes widened involuntarily, and she still couldn’t quite believe it.
“Where are you now?”
“I’m… right in front of you…”
Lin Xinyuan’s voice faltered. She felt her throat go dry, and an overwhelming sense of shame surged through her, leaving her mind in chaos.
Qin Nanfeng, however, remained silent, watching the embarrassed girl with a smile, eager to witness the whole process of his little girlfriend’s shyness and discomfort.
His hand, particularly mischievous, squeezed her small hand.
After saying that, Lin Xinyuan struggled immensely but still quietly lifted her face, instantly meeting the other girl’s eyes.
For a moment, the atmosphere was very silent.
The noise from both phones was especially clear in her ears.
Step by step, Liu Yi walked toward the two.
Watching this, Lin Xinyuan felt unbearably embarrassed, her eyes full of panic, and she wanted to lower her head and escape again.
But seeing the smirking Yellow-Haired Brat beside her— though his expression was annoying, the encouragement in his eyes was obvious— she took a deep breath, forced herself to suppress her chaotic feelings, and painstakingly watched the girl approach.
Step by step, it felt as if each footstep landed on her heart, each one making her heart twitch violently.
The heat rushed to her head, making her dizzy.
This situation only lasted a moment, but to Lin Xinyuan, it felt like an eternity… until the beautiful and familiar figure finally stopped right in front of her.
“Lin… Xin…yuan?”
At this moment, Liu Yi’s expression was extremely vivid.
Staring at the girl before her, who had evasive eyes but still stubbornly raised her little head, she felt as if she could barely force the words out.
“Uh… yeah… it’s… me…”
Lin Xinyuan’s almond eyes were filled with tension, her moist eyes glistening.
Her pink lips were pressed together, and her small face was already flushed red.
This shy demeanor was utterly girly beyond compare…
When she carefully examined the girl’s face, Liu Yi suddenly noticed many familiar features…
Afraid it was just her imagination, she even used her phone to pull up an old high school graduation photo and compared it carefully with the girl before her.
But the more she compared, the more she felt that Lin Xinyuan was astonishingly similar to the boy from before, even sharing the same somewhat shy personality.
At that moment, it was as if the two faces merged into one… But putting down her phone, she took a deep breath and still couldn’t help asking.
“Are you really not Lin Xinyuan’s sister, here to have some fun?”
“Vice monitor… I already said I’m not!”
Now Lin Xinyuan was truly mortified to death, her voice full of grievance and anger.
Unable to bear this strange scene any longer, she immediately hid behind Qin Nanfeng.
Witnessing this, Liu Yi seemed to remember something else.
Her gaze moved back and forth between the two people in front of her, her expression changing repeatedly.
Before she could say anything, Qin Nanfeng finally stepped forward.
He gently stroked the girl’s head and then looked directly at Liu Yi, as if knowing what she wanted to ask.
His voice was calm, as if stating something ordinary.
“I am Xiaoyuan’s boyfriend, and also her… future husband.”
As he spoke, the young man let out a light laugh.
Hearing this, Lin Xinyuan couldn’t help trembling slightly all over.
She tightened her grip on his hand, causing even Qin Nanfeng to feel a bit of pain.
But his expression remained unchanged as he continued.
“She didn’t say anything wrong, but it’s a long story…”
Then, Qin Nanfeng briefly summarized a few points about the girl’s experience.
After hearing it, Liu Yi’s mouth fell open, her face full of disbelief.
She stared at the girl a few more times, and it took a while for her to finally calm down and accept this sudden, bizarre information.
It was just like a novel… But despite her shock, Liu Yi didn’t feel any malice or disgust; she even felt a bit of sympathy.
“Ahem… Lin Xinyuan… you…”
Finally breaking free from that indescribable emotion, Lin Xinyuan timidly stepped out from behind the young man.
Her voice was soft, and her eyes were lowered.
“Vice monitor… please call me Lin Xinyuan… that’s my current name.”
“Uh… alright! Then I’ll call you Xinyuan too…”
Liu Yi nodded, finally feeling less awkward.
Without asking more or exchanging pleasantries, she hesitated for a moment but then directly stepped forward and took the girl’s hand, smiling.
“Let’s go in and see the class teacher! She… no… those guys will definitely be shocked!”
Being suddenly grabbed by the arm, Lin Xinyuan was a bit flustered and instinctively tried to pull away.
But seeing the person she had secretly admired in high school, and glancing seemingly inadvertently at the delicate hand holding her wrist, a strange glint flickered in her moist eyes.
In the end, she didn’t resist and let the other girl lead her.
“Xinyuan, you’re really beautiful now! And your skin is amazing. How do you take care of it?”
After accepting the fact, the awkwardness on Liu Yi’s face completely disappeared, replaced by gossipy excitement.
As she led them back, she leaned in close to the girl and whispered, as if they’d never been estranged.
“Mmm…” Lin Xinyuan was still uncomfortable, but she honestly answered, her voice uneasy. “Just regular moisturizer and stuff… nothing special…”
“Oh? Is that so?”
Liu Yi expressed doubt, but seeing that the girl didn’t show any signs of deception like when she was still “Lin Xinyuan” the boy, she knew she was telling the truth.
She glanced down at her own skin.
Even though her skin was very fair, it was still inferior to the other girl’s in both smoothness and complexion.
This made her feel both envious and a bit jealous… But on the other hand, she thought it wasn’t surprising.
In her memory, even when Lin Xinyuan was still a boy, his skin seemed better than many girls in the class.
Now that she had returned to being a girl, it didn’t seem unnatural.
Still, she found it remarkable.
She never would have imagined that the shy, handsome boy was actually a genuine girl, and now so cute…
But admittedly, the personality really did suit her…
The attractive girl pulled the graceful girl ahead, whispering intimately.
The young man following behind them saw this scene, and his eyes became increasingly dangerous, narrowing slightly.
In fact, he had sensed from the beginning that the girl’s attitude toward Liu Yi was different… The young man’s gaze grew more perilous.
‘Xiaoyuan… you’ll have to be punished when we get back home…’
