Still on the rooftop, the morning breeze was chilly and made Wan Tong shrink her neck. She looked at the dark-faced boy and asked, “Gu Chenyue, what happened?”

Gu Chenyue turned to the side, shielding her from the wind. His short hair was a bit messy from the wind, and he still seemed angry, with creases on his forehead, looking a bit irritable.

Seeing his appearance, Wan Tong felt her legs weaken for some inexplicable reason. She withdrew her hand from him and took a step back.

Gu Chenyue, on the other hand, approached her, and his long finger even lifted her chin. He then threw a sentence at her, “Zheng Wantong, you really are a little fool!”

Wan Tong was slightly stunned. Why did he call her stupid again?

Yesterday evening, after he had walked her home, they had a similar conversation downstairs, where he scolded her for not resisting when taken advantage of, until she got so angry that she punched him in the chest and kicked him, and only then was he satisfied enough to leave.

His demeanor made her feel both amused and exasperated.

Today, she hadn’t done anything wrong, so why was he talking to her like this again?

“What makes me stupid? I ranked in the top ten in the monthly exam this time,” Wan Tong said, sounding a bit proud.

Seeing her silly expression, Gu Chenyue couldn’t help but smirk a little, and his face relaxed slightly. “Still stupid.”

He grabbed her delicate wrist and said, “How have you been bullied?”

Wen Tong couldn’t pull her hand back, and her eyes became misty again. “It’s just you bullying me…”

Her little mouth pouted slightly, and her rosy color was tempting. Gu Chenyue felt his whole body getting hot again, and he thought of the scene last night that made him obsessed.

He could feel that she didn’t really dislike him deep down.

After realizing this last night, the excitement in his heart kept him up all night. He came to the classroom early this morning, but he didn’t expect to see people passing around pictures of her legs…

As soon as he thought of this matter, the curve of Gu Chenyue’s lips dropped again. “Go back to class and don’t run around.”

He had just spoken when the bell rang.

Wan Tong pouted and turned to run towards the door. With his tone, he was starting to manage her. Couldn’t he have been nicer? He was so fierce!

The wind was blowing again, and as she ran, her skirt fluttered, making her fair and slender legs even more eye-catching. Gu Chenyue’s face darkened and his voice came again.

“Why run? Walk properly.”

Wan Tong: “…” If she remembered correctly, he used to run away when he saw her, but now he even wants to set rules for how she walks?

After Wan Tong’s figure disappeared, Gu Chenyue pinched the phone in his hand and gritted his teeth in anger.

The little fool never provokes anyone, but recently she has been targeted repeatedly. He could only think of one person who would do such a thing.

It’s that person who is as annoying as a fly.

He used to think she was the good friend of the little fool, but now it seems that she is just a malicious person.

The homeroom teacher of Class 20 in Grade 3 was middle-aged and had a Mediterranean appearance. As a Chinese teacher, he had a scholarly air about him and didn’t usually get involved in anything.

When Wan Tong returned to the classroom, the homeroom teacher had heard about her situation and asked about it perfunctorily.

Although the school usually turned a blind eye to students causing trouble, Wan Tong was a good student in the eyes of the homeroom teacher, and she had even made the top ten in her grade this time, so he was concerned about her.

Wan Tong gave some perfunctory answers, and the homeroom teacher didn’t pursue it any further. After all, he was too lazy to deal with Gu Chenyue’s affairs.

However, the homeroom teacher also promised to help her investigate the matter of the photos and asked her to be more careful in the future.

At this moment, Wan Tong finally realized what had happened earlier.

During class, she had lowered her head and flipped through some photos that a classmate had sent her, showing a hint of anger on her face.

She had been secretly photographed, mostly of her legs, the chest area of her school uniform, and even a clear picture of her face as she slept on the desk…

The screenshots sent by her classmate also contained some disgusting comments from male students, which made her feel sick.

These photos were probably taken not too long ago, and she had never even noticed.

She turned her head to Lin Zhiwen, who happened to be looking over, “What’s wrong, Tongtong?”

“Taking photos without permission will have consequences,” replied Wan Tong, enunciating her words clearly. Her large eyes were still pure and clear, but they gave people a chill.

Lin Zhiwen had never seen Wan Tong in this state before and was taken aback for a moment. This was the true face of Zheng Wantong – she was good at pretending!

“Of course, I hope you can find out who took those photos of you soon. Otherwise, it’s really terrifying,” Lin Zhiwen said, throwing out a sentence before turning her head away.

She didn’t dare to say more, lest Zheng Wantong catch her off guard again.

Moreover, not all the photos were taken by her, some were cropped from group photos, which may just appear improper in the eyes of boys.

Hmph, she still had a trump card to play. She wouldn’t dare to kill anyone, but she was confident she could make Zheng Wantong leave.

But Lin Zhiwen didn’t expect to be stopped by Gu Chenyue after class that day.

“I hit women, but I only hit faces,” Gu Chenyue said, and Hu Tiankan, who followed to join the fun, couldn’t help but laugh, but quickly resumed his seriousness.

And, not all the photos were taken by her. Some were cropped out from group photos, and they looked indecent in the eyes of the boys.

Hmph, she still had a trump card to play. She wouldn’t dare to kill anyone, but she was very confident in getting rid of Zheng Wantong.

But Lin Zhiwen did not expect that she would be blocked by Gu Chenyue after class that day.

“I hit women, but I hit only hit their face.”1 When Gu Chenyue said this, Hu Tiankan, who followed him to join the fun, couldn’t help but laugh, but then he quickly regained his seriousness.

Lin Zhiwen had provoked Gu Chenyue many times before, but he had always been the one to back down in the end.

So she quickly calmed down and even thought that her progress in pursuing him might improve.

“What do you want to do? Gu Chenyue, if it’s about the thing with Tongtong, I’ll tell you straight up that it’s all her plan. She’s deliberately trying to trap me, pretending not to care even though she obviously likes you! She’s not as innocent as you imagine!”

Gu Chenyue didn’t interrupt her words, and his eyes even lit up slightly when he heard a certain sentence. He narrowed his eyes and asked, “She obviously likes me?”

Lin Zhiwen’s face changed slightly, and she didn’t mention Wan Tong again.

Gu Chenyue then coldly extended his hand, “Phone.”

Lin Zhiwen took a step back and wanted to run, but Hu Tiankan grabbed her by the collar and pulled her back.

After successfully obtaining Lin Zhiwen’s phone, there were indeed many good things in the photo album.

When Gu Chenyue saw the latest photo, her fists clenched tightly.

Under the night sky, in the ambiguous light, a tall boy bent over and lightly kissed the girl against the road railing…

“Very good.” Gu Chenyue stared at the photo and read out two words with a sinister tone.

Lin Zhiwen tried to escape on impulse, but found her legs too weak to move, and could only awkwardly fall to the ground.

This was the first time she felt threatened by the target since entering this world.

When Wan Tong returned home, her phone kept vibrating. She took it out and saw that it was Lin Zhiwen apologizing to her in the class group chat.

She claimed that she had taken those photos secretly and sent them to the boy to get revenge.

Not only did she apologize in the group chat, she also posted a statement of apology on her social media accounts, explaining in detail how she had taken the photos, screenshots, and hidden her IP address to send the email.

The class group chat immediately boiled over with comments about Lin Zhiwen being shameless and her thoughts being too malicious. Zheng Wantong was really pitiful. She had been so good to Lin Zhiwen before, but who would expect to be secretly photographed!

For a while, some of the girls in the class who had previously had a good relationship with Lin Zhiwen were worried and afraid that they had also been secretly photographed, and even talked about reporting it to the police.

“???” Wantong was stunned watching the chat, had Lin Zhiwen gone crazy?

Perhaps her phone was being controlled.

Wan Tong thought of a possibility, did Gu Chenyue do something?

However, she didn’t go find him. He had already been rumored to have an ambiguous relationship with her after he pulled her up to the rooftop in the morning.

She was afraid that this matter would get out of hand and that the homeroom teacher would notify her parents. If it was discovered, she didn’t even know if she could still stay in school.

Sure enough, the incident of private photos being leaked of the girls from Nineteen High School became a hot topic on social media.

Lin Zhiwen managed a Weibo account. Although she only had a few thousand followers, after this incident was exposed, netizens found her Weibo account through the hot search and criticized her in the comments section of her apology post.

Subsequently, someone dug up something Lin Zhiwen had done on the Nineteen High School forum, which caused another uproar.

It was too terrible for Lin Zhiwen to do this to her former good friend because of a boy.

At such a young age, having so many means to harm others, who knows if she will become a murderer when she grows up?

So, netizens directly went to the forum to demand that the school must punish Lin Zhiwen.

Looking at those people online and their trend of digging deeper, Wan Tong felt a little worried. She hoped that she and Gu Chenyue would not be exposed.

Lin Zhiwen hadn’t dared to go to class for several days. At this time, she really had no face to show up at school. Gu Chenyue had been too harsh on her!

After the incident, Lin Zhiwen planned to expose Zheng Wantong’s relationship with the boy in order to clear her own name. But her plan was disrupted by Gu Chenyue, and she found herself in such a shameful situation.

It seems that what the system said is true, Gu Chenyue’s good fortune is suppressing her, and she cannot confront him directly.

As for Wantong, she couldn’t hide it from her family and Mother Zheng mother even went to the school to ask about the situation. The homeroom teacher explained the whole story and when she found out that there was another boy involved between Lin Zhiwen and Wan Tong, her expression became even worse.

She looked at Wan Tong’s most recent exam results and finally said, “Teacher, I want to transfer Wantong to another school.”

The homeroom teacher was surprised but also understood. After all, a lot had happened to Zheng Wantong recently.

When Wan Tong heard this, she couldn’t hold back and quickly spoke up, “Mom, I don’t want to transfer schools, it’s almost time for the college entrance exam…”

“Shut up. I’m doing this for your own good,” Mother Zheng snapped back.

Wan Tong was anxious but didn’t dare to show it too much. She just whispered, “Mom, I’m used to the atmosphere here. I don’t have enough time to adapt to a new environment. Mom, I’m afraid my grades will drop again…”

She had risen over a hundred places in the grade ranking in the recent monthly exam, entering the top ten and winning the award for most improvement, which earned her praise.

Based on her current grades, she might even be able to compete for the national college entrance exam with the next semester or so.

Mother Zheng seemed to be considering this suggestion and her attitude was not as anxious as before. At this time, the homeroom teacher also spoke up, “Mrs. Zheng, why not consider it first? Student Zheng has been performing very well lately.”

The homeroom teacher also intended to keep this student who could bring glory to the school, so she didn’t mention her suspected bullying by Gu Chenyue.

Mother Zheng nodded and then pulled Wan Tong to instruct her privately.

“Zheng Wantong, stay away from those bad students, go straight home after class, do you understand?”

Mother Zheng only knew about Lin Zhiwen’s targeting of her daughter because of a bad student, and she had already asked the class teacher to take extra care of her daughter, which gave her some peace of mind.

“Okay,” Wan Tong obediently nodded her head, feeling a bit relieved.

After seeing off Mother Zheng, Wan Tong turned around and walked towards the teaching building.

After a few steps, she saw Gu Chenyue standing in the middle of the road. It had only been a few days, but he seemed even more haggard. There was a noticeable red mark on his brow bone.

“Did you get into another fight?” Wan Tong asked involuntarily, frowning slightly.

Gu Chenyue was taken aback, as if he didn’t expect her to speak to him first.

“Do you want to control me?” he asked, with a mysterious expression.

Wan Tong clenched her fists, feeling that the boss was a bit scumbag. They had already been intimate, but now he was acting cold towards her again?

She bit her lip and avoided him, taking a few steps forward.

Gu Chenyue’s gaze followed her, and he caught up with her in two or three strides. “Are you bold now?” he asked with an inscrutable expression.

Wan Tong : “…”

She hurriedly walked on, not responding.

Gu Chenyue seemed to stop in his tracks, and after a while, his low voice came through, “Are you trying to keep your distance from bad students?”

Suddenly, Wan Tong stopped in her tracks. Did he hear what Mother Zheng said to her?

She turned around to look, but Gu Chenyue had already walked towards the short wall not far from the school gate.

Gu Chenyue climbed over the wall and when he walked out of the alley, he saw Wan Tong standing at the corner.

Seeing him, she walked up to him.

“How did you come out?” Gu Chenyue frowned, his handsome face instantly becoming serious, and the cold aura emanating from him intensified due to the red mark on his eyebrow bone.

Wan Tong pursed her lips and pointed in the direction of the school gate, “The security guard didn’t stop me.”

Gu Chenyue: “…”

After a few seconds of silence, he pushed her shoulder and said, “There are still two classes left, go back quickly.”

“Then why aren’t you coming?” With a pair of watery big eyes, she looked up at him.

Under her gaze, for a moment, he didn’t know how to speak. His heart felt like it was being brushed by a feather.

This little girl was cute even when she tried to boss people around.

Wan Tong lowered her gaze and then spoke, “My mother doesn’t know exactly what happened. Don’t take her words to heart.”

Gu Chenyue looked at her intently and replied, “I didn’t mind.”

No matter what others said, he only cared about her own opinion.

“That’s good.” Wan Tong nodded.

Gu Chenyue raised his chin, indicating the direction of the school gate. “Go back to class.”

She hesitated for a moment, but before she could speak, she saw him half-close his dark eyes and move his wrist joint.

Wan Tong : “…”

She ran away as fast as she could.

She was still a little scared and didn’t want to get beaten up.

When she panted and ran back to the school gate, she looked back and saw that Gu Chenyue was still standing there. Even at this distance, she could still feel the threat in his eyes.

She silently entered the gate and skipped the last self-study class. She would go find him later.

He had to repay his debts recently, so he should be in the underground boxing arena. The injuries on his face were probably caused by boxing.

Until Wan Tong’s figure disappeared from sight, Gu Chenyue finally relaxed his cold and solemn expression and let out a soft chuckle.

“Little fool.”

1 previously, I took this literally and was confused, but now I think this is talking about ‘face’ in the meaning of dignity or reputation.
