Chapter 64 still says they're not dating?
After the meeting, Gao Zhe and his group closely escorted Lu Yuan towards the classroom.
They didn't care about the strange looks from others. In their minds, Lu Yuan was already an unparalleled and formidable figure.
"Lu Yuan, I thought you were just putting on a show when I saw you burying yourself in your studies all day. I never expected the results to be so amazing."
"Yeah, yeah! Can you teach me some study tips? I want to get a higher score too. My dad said he'll give me a thousand yuan as a reward if I get over four hundred, and I'll give you one hundred, no, two hundred!"
The students all surrounded Lu Yuan, eager to learn his secrets to improving his grades.
Students who are able to enter No. 1 High School are easily influenced by the strong learning atmosphere. Even if their foundation is weak, they all want to catch up.
Lu Yuan's remarkable comeback from the bottom of his class to the top, winning first place in a single subject, greatly inspired everyone. Everyone thought, "I can do it too."
The crowd was so enthusiastic that Lu Yuan was a little overwhelmed.
His seat was right next to the back door of the classroom, and a group of people surrounded him there, blocking the entire back door passage.
Seeing this, the other students all consciously entered and exited through the front door. Only Li Xian, with a gloomy face, walked over and said unhappily, "What are you all doing blocking the door? Don't other students need to get back to the classroom?"
The originally lively and harmonious atmosphere instantly became awkward and stiff.
Anyone could see that Li Xian was very unhappy.
He had always looked down on Lu Yuan, but today Lu Yuan was on stage in a great manner, attracting the attention of the whole school. On the other hand, he, who had always been ranked first in the class, had no chance to show his abilities. It was perfectly normal for him to feel unbalanced and resentful.
Gao Zhe, never one to shy away from trouble, seized the opportunity to tease, "Hey, is our teacher in a bad mood? Did something upset you? Tell us and cheer us up."
Li Xian's face grew increasingly grim. He snorted coldly, his disdainful sneer: "You have the nerve to be so proud of the grades you got by cheating?"
In fact, many people have privately suspected that Lu Yuan's grades were abnormal, but the school has not made any official statement, and no one dares to discuss it casually.
But Li Xian disregarded everything and publicly questioned Lu Yuan's cheating.
Before Lu Yuan could respond, Gao Zhe immediately flew into a rage, slamming his hand on the table and standing up: "Li Xian, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want! Do you have any evidence? What makes you think you can accuse Brother Yuan of cheating out of thin air?"
Lu Yuan's classmates, who were usually on good terms with him, also stood up to support him.
They had long been tired of Li Xian's arrogant and conceited manner, but they had always endured it because they didn't have any outstanding peers around them before.
Now that Lu Yuan has made a high-profile comeback, everyone is firmly on his side.
Li Xian was all alone and had no power to refute, especially since he had no evidence to begin with. He could only stubbornly insist, "It's just English. If you're so capable, show me your total score."
"Brother Yuan will crush you sooner or later."
Gao Zhe refused to back down, determined to help Lu Yuan prove himself.
Lu Yuan smiled helplessly, fully aware of the situation.
Li Xian's scores in all subjects are consistently high and stable, always above 680. Even if I try my best to catch up, I still don't have a sure chance of surpassing him in total score.
But he never underestimated himself. There was still plenty of time before the college entrance examination, and he had every opportunity to make a comeback.
After this minor argument, Lu Yuan's only concern was Ye Yixian.
Did she come to school today?
Lu Yuan quickly took out his phone, ready to make a call. If no one answered, he would go to Class 22 to find her himself.
But before the call could be made, a commotion suddenly broke out outside the classroom.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl with short, straight, black hair that curled inwards slowly walking towards them.
Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and didn't even recognize the person in front of him. Wasn't this Ye Yixian?
She changed her previous messy and casual hairstyle, shed her unkempt appearance, and dressed neatly and cleanly, exuding a pure and clean girlish temperament.
"Is that Ye Yixian?"
"She looks so good when she dresses up."
The surrounding students whispered among themselves.
Ye Yixian's completely refreshed appearance was particularly eye-catching, like a sweet female lead straight out of an idol drama, attracting everyone's attention.
Feeling somewhat uneasy under the gazes of so many people, Ye Yixian still walked step by step to Lu Yuan, her hands nervously clenched together, and obediently said, "I'm here at school."
Lu Yuan was slightly lost in thought. He had never imagined that Ye Yixian, without her flamboyant appearance, would be so stunning and captivating.
No wonder I couldn't find her striking blonde hair anywhere this morning; it turns out she's changed her hairstyle.
Lu Yuan led her to a quiet corridor and asked with a gentle smile, "When did you get your hair cut?"
"I got it cut last night," Ye Yixian said shyly and softly. "I think... to start over, I'll start with a new hairstyle."
Everyone used to complain that her flamboyant blonde hair was ugly, but she dyed it that color simply to make herself look unapproachable, not to stand out from the crowd.
After experiencing so much, she finally understood that a striking hair color couldn't give her confidence, feigning fierceness couldn't protect her, and bluffing was meaningless.
Moreover, she is no longer alone and no longer needs to use external disguises to protect herself.
Seeing her change little by little, Lu Yuan felt gratified and gently patted her head: "You look great, I especially love how you look now."
Many students in the corridor were watching. Lu Yuan's intimate actions made Ye Yixian's cheeks blush instantly, but she was unwilling to turn away, afraid of embarrassing Lu Yuan.
Ye Yixian spoke softly, "Qingyu told me everything that happened last night. Actually, you don't need to be punished or write a self-criticism for someone like Cheng Hao. Let others say what they want, I don't care."
"One thing at a time. We should definitely protect those who deserve it," Lu Yuan chuckled. "Otherwise, wouldn't my self-criticism have been for nothing? By the way, I got first place in English in the grade this time, pretty impressive, right?"
"That's amazing! That's fantastic!"
Ye Yixian praised earnestly, raising her hand to give a thumbs-up, but then felt embarrassed by how direct it was and quickly withdrew it.
Lu Yuan smiled, stroking his chin thoughtfully: "I wonder how the scores in the other subjects are; they should have improved quite a bit too."
"Things will definitely get better and better," Ye Yixian gently encouraged him.
Lu Yuan then asked with concern, "And you? How did you feel about the exam?"
"His performance was fairly consistent. We'll have to wait for the results to be released to know his exact score."
"Okay, let me know as soon as the results are out."
"Yes, I definitely will."
Ye Yixian nodded gently, and a genuine, bright, and relaxed smile finally appeared on her face.
Lu Yuan felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
I'm so glad I got a second chance, which turned Ye Yixian's originally bleak life around.
With her natural talent, as long as she works hard during this final period, she will definitely be able to get into her ideal school.
The two stood side by side in the corridor, their eyes filled with tenderness and affection, an ambiguous atmosphere that could not be concealed.
The students watching were all stunned.
With such affectionate eyes and tender gazes, how can you say they aren't in a relationship?
