I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

From Chapter 31 onwards, as long as I'm around, I will absolutely not let her bother you anymor

Inside the classroom, Tong Yining was preoccupied and took her time tidying up. She was lost in thought, her mind elsewhere.

Tian Run walked over from the side carrying a bag, looked at Tong Yining, and asked:

"What's wrong? It feels like you've been dumped."

Tong Yining suddenly raised her eyes, looking at Tian Run with a face full of despair, as if she had no will to live.

"Oops..." Tian Run immediately covered his mouth, realizing that he might have said something right?

Shouldn't she normally say something like, "Who would dump me?"

She was just saying it casually; she'd felt Tong Yining was acting strangely all day, so she hadn't spoken to her much.

I don't know what's wrong with her...

“Hey hey hey——”

Just then, the two heard a sound like Pigsy running towards them, laughing.

They turned around and saw Kong Yue walking towards them with a beaming smile. The smile on his face sent a chill down Tong Yining and Tian Run's spine.

"What...what are you going to do?!"

Tong Yining immediately stood up and hid behind Tian Run. Tian Run stood in front of Tong Yining, extending his hand to guard against Kong Yue.

Now there are only the three of them in the classroom. When the two girls saw a guy walking over with a wicked grin on his face, who wouldn't be afraid?

"Uh... I need to talk to Tong Yining, there's something I need to discuss..."

Kong Yue scratched his head awkwardly, pointed to Tong Yining behind Tian Run, and said.

"What is it?"

Tong Yining peeked out and asked cautiously,

But she didn't really care what it was about. She'd already disliked him ever since his conflict with Zhou Heng.

She's already being quite polite by not running away from him, given his current aura that makes everyone want to avoid him.

"Can we...can we talk alone, just the two of us...Don't worry, I mean no harm and won't hurt you."

"what!"

"Hurry up, hurry up..."

Tian Run pulled Tong Yining away from the classroom.

Tong Yining felt uncomfortable all over. Let alone talking to him alone, just listening to what he was saying made her want to call the police.

Kong Yue froze on the spot, his body instantly stiffening, as if he had turned to stone.

He didn't know what was wrong with him, or why everyone was avoiding him.

Am I really that annoying?

impossible!

Kong Yue immediately denied this; he could never think of himself as the unlikeable one.

I haven't done anything wrong. It's true that I'm not that popular, but it's impossible for me to be disliked, right?

Having figured this out, Kong Yue breathed a sigh of relief and left the classroom.

In his mind, he thought that Tong Yining was just a little inconvenienced today, and he would talk to her about it next time he had the chance.

When Yin Mengran returned home, she saw that a workbook had already been laid out on the table, indicating that Zhou Heng had already started studying.

Thinking about what happened today, Yin Mengran felt guilty. She knew that Zhou Heng didn't want to have any more contact with Tong Yining.

Yet, knowing this himself, he remained silent and even supported Tong Yining.

If Zhou Heng finds out about this, I'll probably end up like Tong Yining...

"what happened?"

Zhou Heng saw Yin Mengran standing at the door, seemingly lost in thought.

"No...it's okay."

She had already secretly resolved in her heart that she would never make such a mistake again. Although Tong Yining was her friend,

However, in terms of importance, Zhou Heng is more important to her, and that's something that doesn't need to be considered.

Yin Mengran quickly put down her things, sat down next to Zhou Heng, and said:

"Let me help you review."

"Ah."

Zhou Heng nodded, admitting that having Yin Mengran teach him was a good idea.

At least it gave him some hope; otherwise, given his previous study progress, it would have been good if his ranking hadn't dropped in this monthly exam, let alone risen by 50 places.

Zhou Heng looked at Yin Mengran beside him, and suddenly thought of what happened at noon.

Yin Mengran came with Tang Zhi. Tang Zhi knew that Tong Yining was harassing her, which means... Yin Mengran knew too?

"Yin Mengran, you're Tong Yining's good friend, right?"

"Ah... yes..."

Yin Mengran paused for a moment, then responded softly.

She felt uneasy, sensing that Zhou Heng had found out something and was about to confront her.

In an instant, many possibilities flashed through her mind. Perhaps Zhou Heng would kick her out, or perhaps he would pretend not to know her from now on and equate her with Tong Yining.

After a moment, Zhou Heng spoke, saying:

"Please do me a favor and stop her from bothering me. She's a girl, and I can't do anything to her. Please talk to her and persuade her. I'm begging you."

Yin Mengran was slightly taken aback, and it took her a few seconds to react.

"You...are asking me...for help?"

"Yes, a girl should definitely be treated by another girl. Tang Zhi isn't familiar with her, so I can only trust you."

Yin Mengran breathed a sigh of relief and also felt Zhou Heng's trust.

This feeling not only made her very happy, but also made her feel even more guilty for betraying Zhou Heng's trust.

She nodded emphatically and said earnestly, "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I will never let her bother you again."

"Well, thank you."

Zhou Heng suddenly thought of something and continued, "Oh right, Kong Yue happens to be interested in her, so why don't you play matchmaker and get her together with Kong Yue?"

He thought of Kong Yue, the guy who had challenged him for the right to pursue Tong Yining in the restroom earlier that day.

In Zhou Heng's mind, he was definitely a weirdo, but there are always a few weirdos in a class, which is not unusual.

He was simply surprised that he would get involved with such an oddball.

He also regretted his conflict with Kong Yue; for such a person, ignoring him was the best option.

If you take it seriously and get into a conflict with him, others will think you're a weirdo too.

Yin Mengran was taken aback for a moment, as if she hadn't remembered this person for a while.

"Kong Yue? He..."

She had mixed feelings about this person. As the class monitor, she knew most of the students' personalities, even those she wasn't close to.

Among the boys, she felt that Kong Yue was already among the worst.

Neither his reputation nor his achievements are very good, so you rarely see anyone hanging out with him.

"I...I'll try my best, I'll try my best."

Yin Mengran verbally agreed, but she knew that if she really introduced someone like Kong Yue to Tong Yining,

Tong Yining would definitely turn against her...

She'll definitely think she's playing games with her...

Having resolved Tong Yining's issue, Yin Mengran is now wondering whether she should tell Zhou Heng about her invitation to Tang Zhi to come over.

After all, this is his home. Shouldn't he have given his permission to invite Tang Zhi over?

At the time, I just thought that given the relationship between Tang Zhi and Zhou Heng, Zhou Heng wouldn't object, so I made the decision on my own.

Now that I think about it, it would have been better to ask.

"Um... Zhou Heng, I've invited Tang Zhi to come over here tomorrow... Do you agree?"
