Tian Xueqian frowned, “I thought you skipped class again. Let me introduce Xie Li, who won the last place in our grade. Everyone claps and welcomes him.”
The class laughed.
However, Yu Rui was frozen in his seat.
The distance between the front and back tables was nearly nonexistent, so he could hear the man behind him getting impatient. The sound went straight to his eardrums, and the aftershock vibrated.
Everyone’s eyes quickly gathered around.
“Shit, it’s really Xie Li?”
“No wonder I didn’t see him come in, turns out he’s been lying on the back row, and Yu Rui is sitting right in front of him!”
“Both gods of the grade are here, our class has the momentum to go up to heaven now.”
“Speaking of which, Xie Li is something, he even dared to skip the final exam. If I bought a 0 home, my father would beat me to death…”
Feeling the attention returning to him, Yu Rui revealed a gentle smile on his face and turned backward, “Hello, I’m Yu…”
The rest of the voice trailed off.
He didn’t know when the crumpled pickle on the table had laid down again.
Yu Rui’s eyes twitched slightly before turning around calmly.
The students noticed the movement in this corner and began to gossip in mixed tones.
“As expected of Xie Li, not even acknowledging Yu Rui.”
“Hahahaha, Xie Li doesn’t usually talk to anyone, who would he acknowledge? He probably doesn’t even know who Yu Rui is.”
“I heard that last semester the prettiest girl from Third-year came to confess to Xie Li, shouting his name right in front of his face and Xie Li didn’t even look up. Just slung his backpack over his shoulders and walked away.”
“Badass!! He’s so good at studying that even the teachers can’t control him.”
“Of course.”
The unfamiliarity of a newly formed class soon faded into normal student chatter.
Tian Xueqian put away the list, “There is no class today, so as requested by the principal, I will give you two choices. One, everyone does a self-introduction and then moves to self-study in the classroom, or two, go to the basketball court for P.E.”
“222222—”
Without waiting for Tian Xueqian to finish, the students were already shouting impatiently.
“Then gather downstairs and go to the basketball court.”
“Teacher, our class president hasn’t been elected yet, who’s going to lead?”
“Oh, I forgot about that.” Tian Xueqian, who had already turned around, paused, “Is there anyone who was a class president in their original class?”
“……”

“Yes.”
Tian Xueqian stepped down from the podium in satisfaction.
As soon as the teacher left, the classroom was bustling as the students got up and left their tables, laughing and joking they left the classroom in small groups.
When the noise drifting to his ears quieted down, Yu Rui closed the activity book in front of him and looked up, giving a quick sweep of the area. Besides him and the crumpled pickle who never got up again behind him, only Qiao Shengyu remained in the classroom.
Qiao Shengyu seemed to be contemplating something.
You must understand, a single-celled organism like Qiao Shengyu, with muscles for the brain, doesn’t usually think.
Not to mention that there was something like fear on his face.
Were there students in the school who could fill this bully with fear?
Following Qiao Shengyu’s gaze, Yu Rui turned his head and saw Xie Li lying on the back table.
Yu Rui narrowed his eyes.
A few seconds later, as if nothing had happened, he got up and walked out of the classroom.
Leading a class was one of the things Yu Rui was best at.
He was handsome, had excellent grades and his outward personality was good, so he could blend into any class. This class in front of him was no exception. It didn’t take Yu Rui even five minutes to arrive at the playground with the students of Class 10, who were temporarily put into a formation.
The class teacher, Tian Xueqian, stood at the entrance and looked at Yu Rui with deep appreciation in his gaze.
Yu Rui was used to such praise.
The temporary formation stood in front of Tian Xueqian.
Tian Xueqian looked at them for two seconds and frowned, “Xie Li didn’t come down?”
“No.”
“He’s already in his Second-year yet he’s still so unruly and undisciplined. Yu Rui, you are the Class President and you sit in front of him, help him a little in the future.”
“Yes, I’ll do my best.”
The teenager’s already prominent eyebrows looked especially good in the sunlight at this moment, so even though he heard these superficial words of agreement, Tian Xueqian didn’t bother much, “Alright then, you can take the class to the stadium over there. Discuss the sports activities among yourselves, safety first, don’t do anything dangerous.”
“Okay.”
The basketball court of D High School had a dedicated area for different sports classes, with a variety of equipment, so there were many activities to choose from.
The students discussed it fervently, but they couldn’t reach an agreement even after a long time. So Yu Rui stepped forward. The 60 students, including himself, were divided into six groups, and after five minutes, each group came up with one or two activities.
Yu Rui stepped out of his group’s discussion, daydreaming at the side.
The sky was so blue and clear and….
“C-Class President.”
Yu Rui looked down.
The girl in front of him lowered her head and whispered, “I’d like to go to the bathroom.”
“It’s fine, just go.”
“Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
Two minutes later, the same girl ran up to Yu Rui, “C-Class President—”
Yu Rui looked down in amusement, “Did you go to the bathroom?”
“Huh? Ah, no.” The girl blushed and pointed back the way she had come, “On the way, I noticed that Xie Li seemed to have been caught by the discipline teacher, and the teacher was asking him for his class and name!”
“……Where is he?”
“Right at the entrance to the basketball court.”
“Mhm. You can go back, I’ll go check?”
“O-Okay.”
Yu Rui took the shortcut through the bushes to the entrance of the basketball court, and a few meters away he heard the discipline teacher scolding someone.
“I’m telling you Xie Li, good grades don’t mean you can be a lawless person! It’s class time, who let you walk around the basketball court by yourself, and you’re not even wearing a school uniform!”.
“……”
There was no reply.
From Yu Rui’s angle, even the man’s back looked lazy, all that was missing was a yawn.
No wonder the discipline teacher is furious and about to explode.
Yu Rui quickly appeared.
The discipline teacher, who was about to continue his lecture, heard the movement and scowled, “And which class are you fro— Yu Rui?”
“Hello, teacher. I’m in Class 10, in the same class as Xie Li.”
“Oh, I know you.” The teacher’s face relaxed, but he was still a little upset, “What’s wrong with your class, why are you all outside?”
“Sorry, teacher, we’re at the basketball court for a sports class.”
Yu Rui walked over and stopped.
The person next to him seemed to look up and turn his head toward him before turning back around. Only two seconds later, Yu Rui felt the person look at him again.
This time, the man’s gaze was firmly fixed on him.
Yu Rui didn’t bother with him and only smiled warmly as he locked his eyes on the discipline teacher in front of him.
The discipline teacher asked, “Then why did Xie Li come alone?”
“Student Xie Li asked for permission to go to the restroom earlier, so he was two minutes late.”
“Is that so?” The discipline teacher calmed down slightly, “Then I’ll let you go this time, but will not the next time, understand?”.
“Understood. Thank you, teacher.”
“Mhm, then go back to class.”
“Okay.”
When he saw the teacher leave, Yu Rui’s smile lowered quite a bit.
He turned to look at Xie Li.
Yu Rui originally thought that Xie Li would walk away indifferently as he did in the classroom earlier, but only after turning around did he realize that the other party hadn’t moved a muscle at this moment and was still staring straight at him.
His eyes were like an abyss, no light could penetrate them.
The air heated up for several seconds.
“You’re Yu Rui?”
Even though this person doesn’t look quite normal, Yu Rui smiled patiently and gently, “Yes, nice to meet you, I’m—”
“It turns out….” The voice faded like a whisper of daylight, like a taunt of a hunting game, but hiding the tip of the knife waiting for a kill., “You’re Yu Rui.”
At the end of the words, Xie Li suddenly smiled.
The laziness and indifference on his face dissolved into nothingness.
“……”
A nameless shiver ran up Yu Rui’s back.
That smile and that look didn’t carry the slightest bit of kindness but the reminiscent of a suppressed beast.
Like a beast craving to chew and swallow his flesh, blood, and bones.
If you had to describe it with one word, it would probably be…
Pervert.
