“Xiao Xi, we have P.E. class this afternoon. Do you want to stay in the classroom to rest or come with us to assemble?”
During lunch break, Lin Xue’er informed Xia Mengxi that their first class in the afternoon was P.E.
Given Xia Mengxi’s frail constitution, Lin Xue’er was checking her plans.
“Hmm…”
Truthfully, Xia Mengxi really didn’t want to go. Although her headache had improved significantly since morning, she was worried that exposure to the sun might trigger it again.
After hesitating for a while, she ultimately decided to go.
“I’ll go. After all, it’s the first P.E. class of the new semester. Skipping it would leave a bad impression on the teacher.”
After saying this, Xia Mengxi noticed Lin Xue’er’s hesitant expression and immediately understood her friend’s concern.
So she scooted her chair closer, pressing her soft body against Lin Xue’er’s arm.
“Don’t worry, Xue’er. I’m just going to check in. After that, I won’t even do the warm-up exercises—I’ll just find a spot to sit and wait for you.” “Okay, in that case, why don’t we go to the P.E. teacher’s office first to let them know in advance? Then we can wait near the field for the bell. How does that sound?”
Xia Mengxi nodded, and the two left their seats, heading out of the classroom.
As they stepped into the hallway, they encountered a bespectacled girl wearing the same style of uniform but in a different color, with an armband pinned to her sleeve.
For various reasons, Xia Mengxi still didn’t know much about her school, so she curiously asked Lin Xue’er beside her.
“Xue’er, why is her uniform color different from ours?”
“Huh? Didn’t you know, Xiao Xi?”
Xia Mengxi shook her head, and Lin Xue’er explained that their all-girls school used uniform colors to distinguish grades.
For example, first-years wore white short-sleeved shirts and skirts, second-years wore blue, and the bespectacled girl who had stopped in front of them-a third-year-wore black.
Wait, stopped?
“Hello, are you Lin Xue’er and Xia Mengxi from Class 1-A?”
“Yes, is there something you need from us, senior?”
Lin Xue’er deliberately stepped forward, shielding Xia Mengxi behind her, and frowned as she scrutinized the third-year senior.
The bespectacled girl pointed to the armband on her left sleeve, indicating her authority.
“I’m a member of the student council. The reason I’m here is that you’ve violated school regulations.”
“Regulations?”
“That’s right.”
The senior adjusted her glasses with practiced ease and continued.
“Although this is a private girls’ school, we uphold the same standards as public schools. Your public kiss before first period this morning severely undermined the school’s established decorum. Therefore, I must ask both of you to come with me.”
Was the school really this strict? Just a peck on the lips, and now they were being hauled in for a talk.
But Xia Mengxi wasn’t worried. At worst, they’d get a scolding-nothing as severe as disciplinary action or expulsion.
So neither of them argued. As dutiful students, they followed the senior without protest.
The student council office wasn’t exactly far, but it wasn’t close either. For Xia Mengxi, however, it was quite a distance-she had to take more than three breaks along the way to make the trip.
Seeing this, the bespectacled senior couldn’t help but feel exasperated.
“Junior, your physical condition is really poor, isn’t it?’
“I’m sorry… Senior. I’ve been sickly since childhood, so just being able to attend school is already a stroke of luck…”
“Uh… Alright. Behind this door is the student council president’s office, but…”
Halfway through her sentence, the senior seemed to recall something, a trace of panic flashing across her face as she continued, “As long as you’re sincere, the president might let you off since it’s your first offense. So, it’s best not to talk back to her.”
With that, the senior waved her hand and turned to leave without hesitation.
Xia Mengxi and Lin Xue’er exchanged glances before knocking on the large door before them.
“Come in.”
The office door wasn’t fully closed, so the voice inside could be heard through the gap about a hand’s width wide.
With permission granted, the two gently pushed the door open and stepped inside.
“So, you’re the two first-year freshmen?”
Behind the desk sat a girl in a black uniform, her gaze sharp and brimming with an air of disdain for everything.
Not only that, but she also exuded an overwhelming presence. Just standing before her made Xia Mengxi’s legs tremble slightly. Considering the attitude of the bespectacled senior earlier, this student council president was clearly no ordinary person…
Wait a minute… This familiar feeling-holy crap, it’s the God’s text!
[Discovered eligible romance target Jiang Wanning. Choose your next move, girl!]
No wonder the God’s text had been appearing so frequently today-another target to pursue.
But the third romance option was actually this student council president? Given the first impression she gave, the difficulty level seemed sky-high… Well, that could be considered later. For now, she needed to check the options.
[Option A: Meet Jiang Wanning’s gaze head-on, showing no fear of her authority.]
Choosing this option will place you on Jiang Wanning’s hunting list.
Huh? What the hell is a hunting list? Does this mean that if she picks this, she’ll be chased down by this student council president named Jiang Wanning?
No
way,
that’s not acceptable! She didn’t think she could handle someone like that right now.
If Option A was out, what about Option B?
[Option B: Hide behind Lin Xue’er. Avoid eye contact with Jiang Wanning and do not respond to a single word she says until you leave the office.]
Choosing this option will place you on Jiang Wanning’s hunting list.
Damn it! She knew it!
Xia Mengxi hadn’t forgotten God’s mischievous tendencies despite the recent help from the divine text. So when she saw that both options led to the same outcome, her heart only rippled briefly, like a small stone dropping into a lake.
Fortunately, her headache had subsided enough for her to calmly analyze the potential consequences of each choice.
Hmm… this time’s options clearly reflect my personality again. Although I don’t know what this so-called hunting list is, judging from the first impression Jiang Wanneng gave me, Option A’s rebellious action would definitely draw her attention. It might even pique her interest in me, just like with the second target Li Siqi.
So… Option B should be the safe choice, and it could also help increase Lin Xue’er’s favorability points.
